Why did Zhu Yuanzhang bury his ancestors' graves in the water?

Zhu Yuanzhang (1328? 1398), the founding emperor of the Ming dynasty, reigned from 1368 to 1398, with the year Hongwu. Zhu Yuanzhang was poor since childhood and once herded cattle for the landlord. According to legend, he once became a monk in Huang Jue Temple. At the age of 25, he joined the Red Scarf Army in Guo Zixing, and later defeated Chen Youliang to become the King of Wu. 1368 proclaimed himself emperor. After basically defeating the peasant rebels and the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty, he proclaimed himself emperor in Nanking, named his country Ming, overthrew the rule of the Yuan Dynasty and unified China. During his reign, Zhu Yuanzhang carried out a series of policies conducive to social progress, such as resisting foreign aggression, innovating politics, developing production and stabilizing people's livelihood, and vigorously strengthened the centralized rule of absolute monarchy in politics, economy, military and ideology. He is one of the most legendary and controversial emperors in the history of China.

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang did something incomprehensible, burying his ancestors underwater. People are looking for a good feng shui. Why did Zhu Yuanzhang build the mausoleum in the water?

1963 Hongze Lake suffered a severe drought, and the water level was the lowest in history. The most intuitive effect brought by the lowering of water level is that what was previously hidden under water is now exposed. A large number of funerary objects appear in people's field of vision. According to experts' research, this place should be the ancestral grave of the Ming Dynasty. However, according to feng shui, this place chosen by Zhu Yuanzhang is really not a treasure trove of feng shui. Some people say that if the feng shui is not good, find a new place. As an emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang should not be so bad together.

Was water burial popular in Ming Dynasty? Later, I learned that Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather was buried here. If you want to move the grave, it is not conducive to the stability of Jiangshan. In order to solve the problem that geomantic omen is not good enough, Zhu Yuanzhang built a geomantic omen treasure-house around him when he built the tomb (the emperor is really rich).

Supposedly, when Zhu Yuanzhang built his tomb, it was still land. Why did it become a lake? It's a coincidence that the world is changing and Feng Shui is a mysterious thing. In ancient times, people with some conditions would invite people to see Feng Shui, so the profession of Feng Shui master was very popular in ancient times.

After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he chased his ancestors. It is said that as long as the graves of ancestors are built. It turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know where his ancestors were buried at all, and asked a lot of questions before he found them (saying that finding them was also an uncertain place). Is Zhu Yuanzhang trying to prove that he is the emperor? Destiny is back? After he ascended the throne, it was rumored that the tomb of Zhu Guzhu was the land of Long Mai (it should be handed down by Zhu Yuanzhang himself). However, in the social background at that time, it was understandable that Zhu Yuanzhang publicized his ancestors in order to consolidate his position.
