Why did Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu build the mausoleum on the mudflat? What is the reason?

The reason why Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu built the mausoleum on the mudflat: Because Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu was diligent and thrifty all his life, the same was true when he wanted to build a mausoleum for himself. After the completion of the mausoleum, the total area is only 25 mu? . This shows that Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty took frugality to the extreme. When Liu Xuan put forward his own funeral distribution, he initially planned to choose a fortress at the top of Mangshan Mountain to build his own Shouling, but he never told his son. Why didn't you say it? Originally, Liu Zhuang, a child, was ignorant and mischievous. You think he must go east. You asked him to kill the dog, but he refused the chicken. Liu Xuan thinks that if I am buried on the Yellow River beach after my death, it will be very terrible. Therefore, on his deathbed, when the child cried and asked how to arrange the funeral, Liu Xuan deliberately answered irrelevant questions. He said that I was short of water and must be buried in the river after my death. Liu Xuan, this is also an irony, thinks that children will change constantly and be buried in the geomantic fields at the height of Mangshan Mountain.

Unexpectedly, the children resolutely obeyed this last sentence, and immediately made a statement to Liu Xuan: "Unfortunately, children have never listened to their father's words, which goes against the old saying. They are also responsible for the upbringing of the elderly and their father's funeral. I will do as you say! " Hearing this, Liu Xuan was frightened. He never thought the child would be like that. He regretted saying something he shouldn't have said. I only sigh that you are joking and can't break your word. This anxiety and worry intensified in vain, and I came to this world with a sigh. After Liu Zhuang acceded to the throne, he acted in strict accordance with his father's last words, and found a low-lying land with water on the edge of the Yellow River to bury Liu Xuan, hence the view that "Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty buried the Yellow River beach to death".

Obviously, this legend is unreliable, but the truth is very rational, that is, the city where the original mausoleum is located is really not the land of Feng Shui in the traditional definition. Then, why is Liu Xuanling, buried in the Yellow River beach, called the "original tomb"? Since then, historians have never taken notes. I think it is based on location. The real location of Liu Xuanyuan Mausoleum was not on the Yellow River beach as in folk tales, but on the Mangshan North Plain in the north of Beijing. Known for its original site, it was originally a mausoleum, so it was called "the original mausoleum". The location of the original mausoleum was already chaotic in the Song Dynasty. What is the definition of "Linping Pavilion South" in "East View of Han Dynasty"? This situation is inconvenient, because today's historians and archaeologists disagree about where the original tomb is, and there is no conclusion so far.

At present, it is generally believed that the "Han Tomb" located in the southwest of Tiexie Village, Baihe Town, Mengjin County, Henan Province is the original tomb of Liu Xuan, and the locals call it "Liu Xuan Tomb". Although the original mausoleum is not like a treasure trove of geomantic omen, it does not lose the legend of Mill. Although the original mausoleum is located on the yellow beach, its position is low, but the Yellow River water that has repeatedly flooded since ancient times has never flooded the original mausoleum. From this perspective, the original mausoleum is also a treasure trove of geomantic omen.
