Recently, many people are saying that Liu Bowen is very interesting, because there have been legends about him since he was born. Recently, many people are discussing that there were stories when Liu Bowen was born. By the way, Liu Bowen was born. At that time, he was actually delivered by a Taoist priest. This statement is quite interesting. So what is the story? Let’s analyze it together!
Speaking of celebrities in ancient times, there were always many strange things. Strange thing, this was also the case when Liu Bowen was born. Before that, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty killed the White Snake to revolt. When Zhu Yuanzhang was born, the house was filled with red light. When Taizu of the Song Dynasty was born, the house was filled with fragrance.
Are these things true? Not necessarily. Those who succeeded in the uprising later became emperors. They did so simply to publicize their mysterious origins and the legitimacy of their proclaimed emperor.
As for capable ministers and strangers like Liu Bowen, these stories fabricated by later generations are nothing more than to promote their great abilities and extraordinary origins.
When Liu Bowen was born, a Taoist priest delivered his baby. What happened? Liu Bowen's father is Liu Kuang, and Liu Kuang's wife is Fu. Liu Bowen had an older brother named Liu Shu. A strange thing happened when Liu Shu was born.
When my brother Liu Shu was born, a Taoist priest suddenly rushed into the family. The Taoist priest came in, picked up the child and looked at it without saying a word. After looking at it for a long time, the Taoist priest shook his head repeatedly. He shook his head and said, "That's not it." This made Liu Kuang and his wife dumbfounded.
Seeing that they were puzzled, the Taoist priest took out a book and explained it to them. The Taoist priest said: "The book says that a noble person will be born in your area within a few years, but your newborn child obviously does not have a noble appearance. It seems that your next child is likely to have a noble appearance."
Liu Kuang and his wife were very disbelieving when they saw this, and their faces were full of doubts. When Liu Kuang read the Taoist's book, he was even more surprised. It turned out that the Taoist's book was actually a heavenly book without words. The Taoist priest said: "Only a Taoist like me can see it."
Let's talk about the Liu family's residence. The Liu family has not always lived here, but Liu Kuang's father hired a Feng Shui master. The Feng Shui master told his father that the Feng Shui here was good, and that's how the Liu family moved here.
Speaking of which, it was not all smooth sailing after moving here. After the Liu family moved here, they didn't see any good things happen to them. On the contrary, the family became poorer and poorer, and life became more and more difficult.
Just a few weeks after giving birth to Liu Shu, Liu Kuang dreamed of his parents. After that, Liu Kuang often dreamed about his parents. When Liu Kuang thought about it carefully, he felt that he had handled his parents' funeral affairs too hastily.
So he found a Feng Shui master to discuss moving his parents' graves. That night there was a strong wind, and Mr. Feng Shui took Liu Kuang to a lake. I saw Mr. Feng Shui chanting some incantation, and suddenly the originally calm lake became choppy, and a mountain rose from the bottom of the lake.
Liu Kuang was stunned by the sight in front of him, but Mr. Feng Shui said calmly: "This mountain is a treasure land of Feng Shui. If the ancestral tombs are moved here, there will be rich and noble people like the prime minister."
After Liu Kuang heard about it, he moved his ancestral tomb here. Soon after, Liu Kuang's wife Fu Shi became pregnant. This pregnancy was very different from the last time. This time Fu was pregnant for 12 months but did not give birth to a child, which made the whole family anxious.
At this critical juncture, the Taoist priest who hugged Liu Shu came again. This time the Taoist priest was not as anxious as the last time he saw Liu Shu. This time he was very calm, as if he had a plan in mind.
The Taoist priest said to Liu Kuang: "Don't worry, your baby will be born tonight." Sure enough, Liu Bowen was born that night, and the Liu family was overjoyed.
Due to the Taoist priest's remarks and his accurate prediction of the time of the child's birth, the Liu family had high hopes for the child. Liu Kuang named the child Liu Ji, which means that this child carries the hope of the Liu family, is the foundation of the Liu family, and is also the guarantee for the Liu family to prosper in the future.
The above is the legend of the Taoist priest who delivered Liu Bowen when he was born. This legend may have convinced the people in ancient times, but in modern times it has no scientific basis and can only be regarded as a legend.
In fact, Liu Bowen is not the only one. Almost every historical celebrity has his own story and legend. Publicizing their stories among the people is nothing more than adding to their mysterious features and highlighting their extraordinaryness.
The so-called legends are just made up by people and passed down from generation to generation, making it easier for future generations to remember these historical figures.
