What influence did Feng Shui have on Ming Dynasty politics?

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, attached great importance to He Lv, and his capital, Jinling, was the land of Liu Bowen. At that time, most of the mountains outside Jinling were facing the city, forming an arch. Only Niushou Mountain and Huashan Mountain turned their backs on the capital. Zhu sent people to beat Niushou Mountain with a hundred sticks, then dug a hole in the wall of the cow and passed it through with an iron rope to make Niushou Mountain turn inward. At the same time, the massive logging on Huashan Mountain makes the mountain bald and yellow.

Ming Chengzu moved the capital to Beijing, which is completely in accordance with the concept of good faith.

The Ming Tombs is a famous scenic spot in Beijing and the favorite place of Liao, a master of geomancy. He recommended this place to Ming Chengzu and became the mausoleum area of Ming Chengzu. The enthusiasm of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty for Kanyu also made it widely circulated among the people and gradually became one of the important contents of people's lives in the Ming Dynasty.
