Who was the first monarch in history to destroy Feng Shui and vent his anger?
There is another saying about the origin of the name "Jinling" of Chu Weiwang or Qin Shihuang, that is, the theory of "burying gold". In this statement, "Ling" is interpreted as a grave. According to legend, the name of Jinling was obtained because Qin Shihuang helped the king to bury gold in Jinling, that is, the "tomb of buried gold", hence the name Jinling. Jinling and Jinling Gang are said to be in Shanxi, which is now the shogunate. "Ding Jing Jiankangzhi" records: "Father said that Qin (the first emperor) hated the southeast king, and the gold-casting people were buried here." He also said that a monument had been erected in Jinling Hill where Qin Shihuang buried gold, which read: "Not in front of the mountain, not behind the mountain, not in the south of the mountain, not in the north of the mountain, someone has it, and the country is rich and strong." But it is said that Qin Shihuang didn't really bury gold, but pretended to bury gold in the mountains. In this way, let the people looking for gold in the north and south mountains, "dig all over the mountain, the gold is not obtained, and the gas in the mountain is vented." Besides, Chu Weiwang buried gold. It is said that at that time, Chu Weiwang felt that the "King Way" of Nanjing was very powerful, and he was afraid, so he ordered his men to bury the gold by the river north of Lion Mountain (formerly known as Longwan). "Ding Jing Jiankangzhi" records: "In the thirty-sixth year of King Xianzhou (333 BC), Chu Zixiong defeated Yue in Shang Dynasty, so he replaced him with Wu. Because this place has a royal spirit, it is called Jinling because it is buried in gold. " Liu believes that the theory of burying gold has obvious legends and superstitions. The purpose of burying gold is to save the king's soul. The so-called "Jinling Wang Qi" refers to the feng shui characteristics of Jinling. Liu's textual research found that the expression of "Wang Jinling Qi" can only be produced in the Three Kingdoms period at the earliest. Therefore, neither Chu Weiwang nor Qin Shihuang can "bury gold" for fear of being king. More importantly, when "mausoleum" is used as "tomb", it can only refer to the place where the emperor is buried, and the place where gold is buried cannot be called mausoleum. It can be seen that the theory of "burying gold" is not established. But why can the theory of "burying gold" be widely circulated? Liu believes that confusing historical facts and legends is an important feature of ancient history books. Because legends are more wonderful than historical facts and are interspersed with many mysterious colors, they are more easily accepted.
