1. The mystery of ming tomb's location and layout
If you look closely at the friends who have been to the Ming Tombs in, you will find that the Shinto of the Ming Tombs twists and turns, which is completely different from the straight atmosphere of the imperial tombs of any previous dynasty. Why is it structured like this? There are many sayings in history, and later generations have broken their brains.
It was not until recent years that experts discovered the clue when taking aerial photos of the Ming Tombs. It turned out that the layout of the whole tomb was actually the Big Dipper! Why is this happening? It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang was born in a peasant family and took Liu Ji, Xu Da, Tanghe and other founding courtiers who were proficient in geomantic omen theory to the eastern suburb of Zhongshan to look for dragons and acupoints.
after repeated investigations, several people wrote the geomantic treasures in their photos on a piece of paper and hid them in their sleeves. When they come out, they are all single dragon symbols. Supposedly, the station should be built according to the old practice, but Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and asked Sun Quan to watch the door for me.
So the scenic spots and historical sites in Dulongfu area, including big tombs and small mounds, were destroyed. Only the tomb of Sun Quan, the Emperor of Soochow, was preserved at the winding Shenmen Gate in the Ming Tomb, and the layout of the imperial tomb was shaped into the Big Dipper!
Xiamafang, Dajinmen, Wang Zhu, Xingxingmen, Wulongqiao, Xiangdian and Baocheng respectively constitute the spoon head, spoon body and spoon handle of the Big Dipper. It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang is convinced that the soul belongs to Beidou and that heaven and man are one. After his death, he still wanted to take care of Daming Mountain with the Big Dipper.
2. Is Zhu Yuanzhang buried in the underground palace?
It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang was in ecstasy when he was buried. On that day, thirteen gates of the city went out at the same time, which made people wonder which one was the real coffin. There used to be a folk song in Nanjing: Three Monsters in Nanjing, Longtan girl is like an old lady, radish is sold as a side dish, and thirteen doors carry coffins.
Soon after, it was reported that Zhu Yuanzhang was buried alone in the Chaotian Palace in the west of the city. After that, the Ming and Qing dynasties have been skeptical about Zhu Yuanzhang and buried in Xiaoling Mausoleum. But the truth is, I'm afraid, it will only be known on the day of excavation.
