Emperor Kangxi was buried in Jingling, a mausoleum in the east of Qing Dynasty. At that time, he chose to live in that place, saying that the feng shui there was very good. The only bad thing is that there is a deep pool in front of it, where dragons live. People often ask for rain, which is very effective. Emperor Qianlong also went to see it specially, stayed there for one night, and decided to go there to see Jingling the next day.

Kangxi reigned for sixty-one years. He is diligent and loves the people, and he is the longest-serving monarch in history. Ancient emperors were generally very serious about their own affairs. Many of them choose a treasure house with good feng shui, hoping that their wealth and rights will last forever after their death. So many emperors' tombs are very beautiful, but Emperor Kangxi built his tomb in a big puddle. This location is at the foot of Changrui Mountain, and you can see Xiangshan in the south.

When I visited Emperor Kangxi for the first time and built the mausoleum, they were all very excited when they found the geomantic treasure, but there was an embarrassing problem because there was a deep water pool in the middle of this geomantic treasure town. According to the local people, this deep pool is bottomless, and the bottom of the pool is connected with the Longmen in the south of the mausoleum. The two are hydrated into one, so there are often dragons underwater. Every time there is drought, there is a dragon.

Officials told Emperor Kangxi what they heard from the people. Later, Emperor Kangxi personally came to inspect. He found that this is really a treasure trove of geomantic omen, just as officials said, the pool will be more bottomless in rainy days. Emperor Kangxi didn't speak after reading it. He stayed there all night and decided to meet Jingling there the next day.
