Hong Xiuquan was the leader of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement. He was born in Hua County, Guangdong Province. He grew up in a poor family. Hong Xiuquan, who is bent on changing his family's predicament, studies hard under extremely difficult conditions. He reads widely only to get an official position. But things didn't work out, and Hong Xiuquan fell into Sun Shan several times. Hong Xiuquan, who failed several times, was disheartened and frustrated. When he got home, he was ill. After recovering from a serious illness, Hong Xiuquan no longer wanted to be an official through the exam, but decided to launch an uprising.
The ancestral grave of Hong Xiuquan's family is in Zhang Furong, north of Hua County. The master of geomantic omen found this place a treasure trove of geomantic omen. He predicted that a king would appear in 600 years. Perhaps in response to the words of Feng Shui master, Hong Xiuquan later launched the Taiping Rebellion which shocked the whole world. Hong Xiuquan's power began to grow gradually, with more and more people, which directly affected the position of Emperor Xianfeng, so Emperor Xianfeng tried every means to restrain Hong Xiuquan's power. He heard about Hong Xiuquan's ancestral grave and immediately sent someone to dig his ancestral grave. Hong Xiuquan was in power for ten years and killed the enemy bravely, but the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom perished shortly after his death. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom only survived for thirteen years and ended in failure.
Some people think that this is related to the excavation of Hong Xiuquan's ancestral grave, and it is not good to study the facts in depth. Only Hong Xiuquan, whose ancestral grave was dug, will definitely be affected a little, so Emperor Xianfeng dug Hong Xiuquan's ancestral grave and played a certain role in suppressing Hong Xiuquan's influence.
