It is said that Emperor Wen built a mausoleum on Bailuyuan after his death. I don't think many people know why. I'll take you to see it.
The results show that the funerals in the Han Dynasty were deeply influenced by the "Zhao-Mu System". In the tombs of a dynasty, the correct position of the son is Mu Zhi. In other words, there was already Anling of Liu Ying, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty, on Liu Bang's right, and Liu Heng and Liu Ying were both Liu Bang's sons. Liu Ying has already occupied Mu's position, so how to arrange herself is not in line with etiquette.
Liu Heng is Liu Bang's fourth son, and Liu Ying is Han Huidi's father and younger brother. They are diligent all their lives. After he came to power, he created one of the few great periods in history: civil rule. But the drainage system of the mausoleum is not good. Over time, the sand and stones in Baling's tomb became clogged, causing the door to be washed open by water. Liu Heng was respected by tomb robbers for his outstanding achievements, magnanimity and frugality, and he was not destroyed. Later, Queen Dou, Queen of Liu Heng, died of illness and was buried in Baling. The burial is not in a tomb, but in the cemetery where the Queen's mausoleum is built.
When the emperor ascended the throne, he had to make plans for his own affairs. Unexpectedly, the emperor did not build a mausoleum in Xianyang Yuanshang, but chose Bailuyuan away from the Ba River. What to consider? Xianyang is quaint and has excellent Feng Shui, making it an excellent location for the cemetery. From the Changling Mausoleum of the great ancestor Liu Bang to the Kangling Mausoleum of Hanping, nine mausoleums are arranged in a row from east to west.
After Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty passed away, he did not want to be far away from his father and the royal family, so he built a mausoleum on Bailuyuan.
