Geomantic omen of sand dunes in Hebei Province

There is a place in Hebei, which people call "the place where dragons are trapped". Since Qin Shihuang died here, all the emperors have been afraid to pass through this place and have taken a detour. Why? Listen to me carefully. Before Qin Shihuang, two emperors died here, that is, the infamous Shang Zhouwang and the king of the Ming Dynasty, Zhao Yong. During the Shang Dynasty, Li Gong was built here in Hebei Province. During the reign of Shang Zhouwang, he used human and material resources to expand the building for his own enjoyment, regardless of the needs of the people.

Shang Zhouwang likes to live in palaces, wine pools and meat forests here in Hebei, and doesn't care about political affairs. Finally, his retribution came and he was forced to set himself on fire in Lutai here. The death of Zhao Yong, the king of Wuling in the Ming Dynasty, is even more controversial. He was famous all his life, but suddenly he made a big mistake, that is, he set up the Chu army and made his youngest son, Zhao Yong, emperor, regardless of the past practice. His eldest son, Zhao Zhang, of course, was dissatisfied with this decision and crusaded against his father, Zhao Yong. Zhao Yong was finally besieged by his son in Hebei for three months and starved to death here.

But in the end, the emperor refused to go to Hebei again, and Qin Shihuang died. After the unification of the six countries, Qin Shihuang felt successful in his career and began to look for ways to live forever. He wants to be emperor forever, otherwise he won't call himself emperor. However, he was not so lucky. In the process of exploration, he not only failed to find a way, but also caused a whole body of diseases. At that time, the medical technology could not be treated at all. In the end, he had to suffer from illness and died in a sand dune in Hebei.

Since then, emperors have thought that the geomantic omen here is bad and evil. Even if you are the emperor, you will be attracted here, and you can't leave unless you die. This rumor spread to the second and the second to the fourth. Emperors of all dynasties believed in Feng Shui and didn't want to risk their lives, so they all chose to take a detour in the end.
