Chapter 650: The Story of Zhu Yuanzhang

The radio broadcast of the plane preparing to take off sounded in advance, calming the originally noisy cabin. +◆

That Jack obviously wanted to cause trouble for Wang Yang, but he had to calm down first. Park In-hye looked at Wang Yang in front of him, but thoughtful and didn't know what she was thinking.

When the plane took off steadily, Jack couldn't help but pat on Wang Yang's seat, but was stopped by Park In-hye next to him.

Wang Yang turned his head and happened to see Jack blushing, while Park In-hye looked at him with an apology and smiled.

"Feel sorry……"

The reason why Wang Yang spoke just now was that he was just teaching this Jack a lesson, so that he could understand that the Chinese Feng Shui and physiognomy were unfathomable. Don’t just say it’s a liar without understanding it, and there is no other meaning.

"fine."

Nodding, Wang Yang signaled that he didn't care, and then turned his head and heard Park In-hye behind him quickly saying something to Jack in English.

She seemed to be translating what Wang Yang said just now to Jack in English, and was warning Jack not to disturb Wang Yang casually.

After laughing, Wang Yang shrugged.

In fact, many people think of Feng Shui Physics and their reactions are exactly the same as Jack's, and there is nothing we can do about it.

After all, when it comes to Feng Shui, it is easy for people to associate it with superstition. If you do not study it carefully and in-depth, it is impossible to find that the relationship cannot be linked with equal signs. During the Great Revolution, the Book of Changes was classified as feudal superstition. Until now, there are very few people offering courses in colleges. This shows people's attitude towards Feng Shui.

You should know that in ancient times, the Book of Changes was one of the Four Books and Five Classics, and it was a must-take the imperial examination and the must-learn thing, just like the Chinese and mathematics today. No matter what you take in the future, you must learn the knowledge in the early stage.

Although "Feng Shui" is in form and has many superstitious elements on the outside, in fact, its content and essence have many advantages.

The reason why people regard Feng Shui as superstition is mainly because Western natural sciences are used as a reference. However, the problem is that Chinese Feng Shui is a traditional culture that grew and developed on the land of China. It not only contains scientific components. More importantly, it is also an art of dealing with directions.

Therefore, when seeing Feng Shui, we cannot only start from a scientific perspective, but also need to analyze it from an artistic perspective. This is not difficult to understand. If we only use the reference system as a scientific perspective, then some things are indeed difficult to understand and be regarded as superstition. But if we change the reference system, observe Feng Shui from the perspective of psychology, aesthetics, and so on, it is easy to find that Feng Shui contains many profound principles, and highlights a major feature of Chinese traditional culture, that is, "harmony between man and nature."

From a scientific point of view, "harmony between man and nature" is exactly "only cause does not compare results", which is exactly the true meaning of what Wang Yang said before.

Unfortunately, Wang Yang's lesson will not have any effect on Jack, but may have a lot of feelings about the Korean girl Park In-hye.

In feudal society, all principles must be based on the monarchy. What the emperor said and did was necessarily right. Even if it was wrong, it was very reasonable and it was natural for mistakes.

In this environment, the mysterious Feng Shui technique must make up some lies to cater to the imperial power to prove some of the emperor's words and behaviors.

Park In-hye actually understands this very thoroughly. This is a kind of modesty, but it also has its important role and reason.

Take Zhu Yuanzhang as an example. He conquered the world. If he was very happy and admitted without hesitation that his country was exchanged for it with a knife, it would be difficult to guarantee that those who were active in their hearts would be shaken and eager to try.

This point is completely referenced in history. When Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's words "Where are kings, princes, generals and ministers?", they attracted many heroes to rise up and die in battle to fight for imperial power.

This situation will obviously pose a great threat to the stability of feudal securities. On the contrary, if the highest ownership of the country is handed over to the deaf and elegant "Heaven" and aggrieved his biological father, then the legitimacy and stability of the regime, which is real human rights, wealth and fame.

Only fools will not do such a business that is profitable. Therefore, in China, many seemingly absurd humanistic phenomena such as the creation of Feng Shui actually play an important role in the feudal society, proving the authenticity of the identity of the illegitimate son (the emperor) of the emperor's writings, and thus proving Wang Chao's political legitimacy and appease the people of the world.

Just like in the Song Dynasty, foreigners invaded, and officials and emperors were weak and incompetent, but they believed that they were folk people from the Song Dynasty, but they could burst out with a strong sense of national patriotism to support the country and support the Tongzhi of the Song Dynasty. For example, in the Qing Dynasty, those Han people who believed in the Ming Dynasty were still dissatisfied with the Tongzhi of the people and wanted to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. This situation was not temporarily put down and unanimously opposed to the outside world when the foreign invaded.

"Wang Yang, do you know what happened to Zhu Yuanzhang when he was talking about?"

Chu Yu had been listening to her just now. She believed in Feng Shui without doubt, and would definitely not be like Jack who didn't understand at all and Park In-hye, who had only a slight understanding. But she was still curious about why Jack wanted to prove Zhu Yuanzhang alone that Feng Shui is superstitious and deceitful.

"Of course I know, are you curious about his story?"

Wang Yang nodded and found that Wang Yang was very interested in what Jack said about Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Hate, do you know it, don't you know it, it's not as detailed as anyone else!" Chu Yu glared at Wang Yang, but it was useless at all.

"How is that possible? I know much more clearly than him!"

Wang Yang pinched Chu Yu's nose and couldn't help but find it funny.

In fact, what Jack said about Zhu Yuanzhang can only be regarded as a very normal example in the eyes of Feng Shui masters.

Zhu Yuanzhang was named Chongba when he was young, also known as Xingzong, with his courtesy name Guorui, and was from Zhongli, Haozhou (now Fengyang, Anhui). He was born in a poor family.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was seventeen years old, his parents and brothers died one after another due to drought and locust plague. Seeing that he was pitiful, his neighbor Liu Jizu gave him a look at the grave and was able to bury his relatives. From then on, he had no place to rely on him and went to Huangjue Temple to become a monk. Later, he seized the opportunity to compete for the Central Plains, establish a throne in Jinling, and ascend to the great treasure.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who became emperor, was certainly unwilling to admit that he was a beggar monk from a cattle herding baby, so he posthumously honored the four generations. His father Zhu Shizhen, who was Zhu Wuliu, was posthumously awarded the title of Emperor Jianren Zuchun, and at the same time sent his crown prince to Sizhou, which is now Sihong County, Jiangsu to pay homage to his ancestors and parents.

However, because of the age, the exact location of the ancestors' burial place was difficult to confirm. Therefore, the prince and his party had to stand on the city of Sizhou and look at the river to pay tribute.

This was not a satisfactory result for Zhu Yuanzhang. So he sent people everywhere to search for it, and on the other hand, he also searched for various Feng Shui masters, trying to find his own ancestral tomb.

It was in this context that on the 12th day of the 10th lunar month of the 17th year of Hongwu, a tribe named Zhu Gui in Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown suddenly claimed that he had found Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather's residence and burial place, and then announced a Feng Shui story that even Zhu Yuanzhang himself had never known in advance.

It was precisely when Zhu Yuanzhang heard this Feng Shui story that he was very happy and promoted this Feng Shui story as a real person.

The origin of this Feng Shui story still starts with Zhu Chuyi, the grandfather whom Zhu Yuanzhang posthumously named Ming Xizu.

Zhu Chuyi was born in the late Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty. He was from Zhujia Village, Tongde Township, Jurong County, Jiangsu Province. Later, the world was in chaos, so he brought his whole family to Huai River and settled in Sizhou.

After arriving in Sizhou, because he was highly respected, he did not encounter any major events, and local people often recommended him as the emcee.

One day, he was so tired that he was lying resting in a pit under Yangjiadun behind the house when two strangers suddenly came, one old and one young.

Although these two strangers were wearing gossip Taoist robes, they did not have the tall buns like Taoist priests, but instead had their hair disheveled and their hair was very casual.

After the two of them came, the old one pointed to the earth pit where Zhu Chuyi was lying and resting, saying, "This place is the place where the real dragon's cave is buried. If it is buried here, the emperor will be born in the future."

The young man was very dissatisfied and asked, "How can I see this?"

The old man laughed and then said, "Don't believe it, you can try to insert a dry branch. It only takes ten days, and dead trees will inevitably produce leaves."

After saying that, the old man wanted to wake Zhu Chuyi up and let him leave.

But after hearing the conversation between the two, Zhu Chuyi felt strange in his heart, so he pretended to be asleep and didn't want to get up.

So, the two strangers seemed to really think that Zhu Chuyi was asleep, so they ignored him. Instead, they checked the branches in this pit and then drove away.

When the two of them left, Zhu Chuyi dared to open his eyes. Looking at the two of them leaving, he realized that these two people were not dressed as Taoist priests, but more like Feng Shui masters nearby.

Turning back, Zhu Chuyi discovered that these two people actually inserted a dead tree branch into the pit, as if they were waiting to verify whether they could sprout and grow leaves in ten days.

At the beginning, Zhu Chuyi thought the two of them were joking, and how could the dead tree branches sprout and grow leaves, so he didn't take it seriously. But on the ninth day, he suddenly heard this again.

Although he was unwilling to believe it in his heart, he tossed and turned on the bed that night without any sleepiness. When he closed his eyes, he seemed to hear what the two Feng Shui masters said in conversation between the old and the young.

If the true dragon is buried in the cave, the emperor will appear in the future.

The emperor will surely come out!

When Zhu Chuyi thought of this, he could no longer rest assured. So before dawn, he hurried out and rushed to the pit behind the Yang Family Dunk to verify what the two strange people said, old and young.

After a while, I found that the branches they had planted were indeed re-energized by greenery, sprouting and branches, and dead trees grow leaves. I was shocked, and my heart was already filled with storm.

Thinking of what the old and the young said again, Zhu Chuyi became interested...

That’s all about Wang Yang’s story, and I didn’t continue to talk about it.

Not only Chu Yu around her listened with relish, but even Park In-hye, the one behind her couldn't help but come forward and listened attentively to Wang Yang to continue.

But Wang Yang was not in a hurry and raised his hand to greet the flight attendant.
