Guangxi farmers claim to be descendants of Feng Yunshan, but also take out genealogy and ancestral graves as evidence. Scholars: it is impossible to refute.

Feng Yunshan, one of the main leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, attracted a large number of congregation for Hong Xiuquan's worship of God with his eloquence, which directly laid the foundation of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. When Yong 'an was established, Feng Yunshan was named the South King at the age of seven thousand, and was mainly responsible for missionary work. In the Taiping Army, Feng Yunshan was deeply loved, and Li Xiucheng also said that among the leaders, only the East King, the South King and the Wing King were the most capable. It is a pity, however, that among the kings, the South King was the first to die. On April 3, 1852, Tianwang made a decree to break through Yong 'an and conquered the whole state on June 3. However, in this battle, Feng Yunshan unfortunately exposed his target by riding in a luxurious chariot, and was shot to death. After Feng Yunshan died in battle, his remains were buried by Hong Xiuquan, but the specific burial place is unknown. As far as the kings of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom are concerned, the fate of their remains is not very good. Yang Xiuqing and Wei Changhui are in conflict with each other in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Shi Dakai was executed by the Qing court in Chengdu; Xiao Chaogui died outside Changsha, was buried under Miaofeng, and was later dug up by the Qing soldiers and slaughtered; Hong Xiuquan died in Tianjing and was buried in the temple courtyard. After Tianjing was broken, the Xiang army dug up and burned the body. Therefore, Feng Yunshan's remains are probably the best preserved among the kings. But not long ago, a retired cadre named Feng Zhaofang in Yangshuo County, Guilin, Guangxi claimed that they were descendants of Feng Yunshan and Feng Yunshan was buried here. Not only that, he also took out a genealogy. According to Mr. Feng Zhaofang, he is a member of the whole family in Zhou Village. The first person who settled here was Feng Jinyang. Up to now, the family has bred more than 3 people for seven generations, and he is the fifth generation. According to Feng Zhaofang, Feng Jinyang is Feng Yunshan's second son Feng Ruike (born as Tian Yang). After Tianjing was breached, he fled to the whole family village, where he married and had children. Later, he drew up a genealogy for his family: "Hong Ripu shines all over the sky, and the international prosperity is purple emblem;" Weak home sound rope Zuwu, Zhilan and Nuanqingxinbei. The main idea of this poem should be: when the time came, it made great achievements; When the luck is bad, we should also pay attention to cultivation, and there will always be a day to celebrate the blooming of spring. From the poems, we can easily see the relationship between Feng Jinyang and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. In the documents of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the word "Hongri" can often be seen, and it is engraved on Hong Xiuquan's imperial seal. At the same time, the poem also implies that Feng Jinyang was once dressed with gold and purple, and was rich and boundless (the purple emblem of the prosperous dynasty). It can be seen that his position in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is quite extraordinary, and perhaps he is really the son of Feng Yunshan. In addition, Feng Jinyang also warned future generations through poems that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had established a celestial dynasty. Although it failed, future generations should make great efforts to build great achievements. So why did Feng Jinyang choose Yangshuo instead of going back to his hometown of Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province? Feng Zhaofang said that this is because Feng Yunshan may be buried in Yangshuo. In the autumn of 29, a mountain fire suddenly broke out in the back of Maojia Village, Fengmuzhai, Jinbao Township, Yangshuo County, burning the weeds in the forest on the mountain, and several ancient tombs were exposed. At first, the villagers didn't care. The following spring, a villager named Zeng Xianxing happened to pass these ancient tombs and found that the stone tablets of the ancient tombs had fallen from the tombs. Out of curiosity, he went forward and took a look. The bluestone tablet about .5 meters high and .3 meters wide was lying on the ground. Later, Zeng Xianxing turned the stone tablet upside down and saw the words "Visiting the Heavenly King" written on it. Zeng Xianxing once heard the old man say that many soldiers of Taiping Army were buried in this back hill, and this "king of patrol" may not be a mortal. Later, Zeng Xianxing and other villagers rushed to the stone tablet again, and found a row of thumb-sized four small words "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom" above the tablet. Later, scholars speculated that the "king of tour" here actually refers to Feng Yunshan. One of the reasons is that the God Worshipers Association founded by Hong Xiuquan and Feng Yunshan thinks that the soldiers of Taiping Rebel who died in battle have ascended to heaven, which is a matter of "perfection of merit". As the first king who died in battle, he naturally went to patrol the sky, so he was called "the king of patrol", and at that time, it was impossible to seal others except Feng Yunshan, the king of the South. Secondly, the reason why Hong Xiuquan didn't directly engrave the name of Feng Yunshan was to protect his remains from being slaughtered by the Qing army. Thirdly, Qianjinling is a better place for geomantic omen, and the location of the tomb of "The King of Patrol" is the best Long Mai acupoint in Kanyu studies, which accords with the status of king of Feng Yunshan. Fourthly, there is a cave called "Treasure Cave" at the foot of Qianqian Mountain in Maojia Village of Fengmuzhai Village Committee, 5 meters away from the tomb of "Patrol King". According to the villagers, Feng Yunshan once set up a command post at the foot of Qianqian Mountain. Later, Feng Yunshan was shot dead, and his men stored some treasures and materials in this "treasure cave", which was blown down by explosives. According to scholars' exploration, this "treasure cave" was really excavated by man. In addition, according to villagers, there were grave robbers pretending to be soldiers looking for treasure here, and their metal detectors did find a lot of metal in the cave. However, due to the gravel barrier, the grave robbers failed to succeed and had to leave in anger. To sum up, scholars such as Zhu Feng think that Feng Yunshan, the king of the South, may really be buried in Yangshuo, with the family village, the tomb of the King of Patrol and the treasure cave. Mr. Feng Zhaofang said that they didn't want to climb high, but just wanted to make a picture of their ancestors and clear their names. Feng Yunshan, his ancestor, was an out-and-out national hero for overthrowing the Qing Dynasty.
