Chapter 18 Chapter 92 Hunting in the Eastern Suburbs

Before the words were finished, a Confucian scholar floated out, and said with a loud smile: "The auspicious place that Taoist brother Dongshan said, I have also explored it. It is indeed a place with good geomantic omen, but Taoist Dongshan just accused Master Bai Lin of committing crimes." Why did I make the same mistake myself? Dongshan Ling said in astonishment: "The place chosen by the poor monk is called Yangshan. How did you break the taboo?" The Confucian said: "There is a valley behind Yangshan Mountain, and its name is Lang'er Valley. There are wolves beside the vermilion valley. Isn't it more dangerous?"This conflicts with my surname of Zhu Ming's royal family, and it is not a good place.

Zhang Shangshu said to Xia Xun: "Guo Gong, this gentleman's surname is Ge Shu, and his name is Ge Shu Beidou. He learned the Yang School of Feng Shui created by Yang Junsong, a doctor of Guanglu in the Tang Dynasty!" Geshu Beidou said: "Guogong, Lord Shangshu, I have traveled all over the mountains and rivers around Yanjing, and found that Yanjiatai in the west of Beijing is an excellent place by searching for dragons, looking for water, observing sand, standing, and fixing acupoints." place Master Bai Lin of Shuzhong and Taoist Master Maoshan Dongshan laughed loudly together: Absurd!absurd!Yanjia, Yanjia, the homonym is Yanjia, is this considered an auspicious place?

Xia Xun was so impatient when he heard it, he muttered to himself: There are so many things to pay attention to. An old man with white hair and a childlike face who looked over seventy years old cast a disdainful glance at the three of them, stepped out of the crowd, and cupped his hands at Xia Xun, saying: "Old Liang Yunqing, I learned from the Yin-Yang school of walking horses. I chose an auspicious land." , in the Tanzhe Temple in the west of Beijing, where the mountains and rivers are excellent, and it is a good place for a mausoleum.Then he continued to talk about some mysterious and mysterious truths.

How could Xia Xun understand that the clouds and mist were covering the mountains, and he didn't know what to say. Another Confucian scholar came out of the crowd, and said with a loud smile: "Tanzhe Temple, which Mr. Liang chose, has been visited by students. It is indeed an auspicious place."But there is one thing, although the feng shui there is good, the door is too small. If the head of a family is buried, it is enough to protect the descendants and prosper, but to bury the head of a country?Inappropriate, greatly inappropriate.Mr. Liang, the place is deep in the mountains and the area is narrow. If the king is buried here, there will be no room for the descendants to develop.

Zhang Shangshu whispered to Xia Xun: This one is a disciple of Mr. Liao Junqing, a Jiangxi Fengshui master, and Liu Qi, the distant nephew of Liu Ji, Liu Bowen, the founding hero of our dynasty. The old man standing next to him is his master, Mr. Liao . When he heard that he was the nephew of Liu Bowen and Liu Banxian who wrote "Song of Shaobing", Xia Xun felt moved, and quickly said: "Ah!It turned out to be Mr. Liu Bowen's nephew, so does Mr. Liu have a suitable burial place in mind? Liu Qigong clasped his hands and said: I carefully selected the auspicious soils in Yanjing with my teacher, and found an excellent place. This place is called Huangtu Mountain. There are two small hills in front of the mountain. The east is Longshan and the west is Tiger. The mountain is in line with the four spirits of the East Qinglong and the West White Tiger, forming a geomantic treasure.The three sides are mountains, facing south and opening, and there is water in front of the mountains.Here, the mountains are stretched and the dragon veins are strong, which is a good Fengshui place created by nature.

When Xia Xun heard what he said about the terrain, his heart moved, and he suddenly remembered something. He couldn't help but blame himself for being confused, and quickly asked: "Is there a drawing?" Liu Qi said: Yes!Turning around and ordering, one of his disciples presented a scroll, Liu Qi and his disciples slowly unfolded the scroll, and the shapes and colors in the painting were like a landscape.Xia Xun looked closely, and couldn't help but think to himself: It really is here!Isn't this the location of Changling, the first tomb of the Ming Tombs?Emperor Yongle was originally buried here!When I first visited Changling, the tour guide said that the feng shui here is excellent!

Xia Xun immediately clapped the case and said, "Excellent!"It really is a place with good Fengshui, this is it! Ge Shu Beidou was dissatisfied, and said with a sneer: The Duke must not respect Liu Bowen's name, so he listened to his lies.Even Liu Bowen might not be called a master in Feng Shui.In the past, Liu Bowen visited Lantau Island in the south and observed the shape of the mountain. He once said: Lantau Island is wonderful, and it will surely become rich in the world in the future!Now that decades have passed, there are still deserted islands and wild mountains. Not to mention the wealth of the world, even Dongguan County is considered a poor place, which shows its absurdity!

Liu Qi blushed when he heard this, and said unconvinced: After this day, Anzhi will be decades away? Ge Shu Beidou sneered and said: "Wonderful, if it is thousands of years later, then there is no way to verify it?" Dongguan?It turns out that this place name is so old!Lantau Island sounds familiar too. Xia Xun wondered secretly, and quickly asked, "Where is this Lantau Island?" Liu Qi was reluctant to bring up this matter again, but the Duke of the State asked him a question and had to answer it, so he had to explain it. Xia Xun heard him talk about geography, and immediately understood that Lantau Island was the second largest island in Hong Kong. At that time, the whole of Hong Kong belonged to Guangdong. It is under the jurisdiction of Dongguan County, Guangdong Province.Xia Xun couldn't help being secretly surprised when he heard this: the art of geomancy really has its wonders!

Others don't know that the Year of the Monkey on Lantau Island can verify what Liu Bowen said, but Xia Xun knows it.From this, he couldn't help thinking of a report he had read in the newspaper before. It said that when the Qing Dynasty established its capital outside the Guanwai, the reason why Fengtian City was chosen was because a Fengshui master said that there was a place under the city for a turtle with hard shells. , the situation is stable, so this place will not turn over, and the country's fortune will last forever. As a result, hundreds of years later, using advanced geological survey instruments, it was discovered that the Shenyang area is a complete rock plate underground, so earthquakes will not easily occur.The feng shui master's statement back then is certainly superstitious, but stripping away the magical color, but only looking at the surface and topography at the beginning, how did he know the topography hundreds of meters below?There may be some doorways in it that are unknown.

With this thought, Xia Xun dared not ignore it.One virtue, two lives, three Fengshui, even if the secret technique of Fengshui is really useful, it is impossible to determine everything, let alone forever, but things that cannot be determined cannot be easily denied.Xia Xun said: "I think what you said is that the Huangtu Mountain that Mr. Liu said is the best. How about it, Zhang Shangshu, you can write a copy of this chapter and write down all the opinions of the masters. The key points are to recommend Mr. Liao and Mr. Liao." From my point of view, the Huangtu Mountain surveyed by Mr. Liu, his master and his apprentice, is a very auspicious place!

Liao Junqing dispatched his disciples first, in case he came forward to reiterate his opinion, he didn't want the young Duke to just take a look at the topography of the Huangtu Mountain they drew, and confirm that this place is the auspicious land of the imperial mausoleum. He couldn't help being surprised and said: "Does the Duke also know the art of geomancy?" Xia Xun laughed dryly and said: I understand a little, I understand a little Xia Xun went to the Xingbu for a trip. Originally, he just wanted to meet a scene, but he didn't want to decide the location of the imperial tomb. These things are thankless, and it's okay to choose. In the future, that master will raise objections , or any mistakes in the construction process, the person who made the decision must be held accountable.This time, Xia Xun chose a good place based on his foresight. He couldn't guarantee that everything would be perfect in the future. Don't talk about Feng Shui, even if it is architecture, he is far behind the masters of the dynasty, and he can't even understand the scientific planning of the entire imperial city. Xia Xun learned a good lesson, so he closed the door If you don't come out, you can only cultivate your mind and nature at the post where you live. The scenery in the posthouse is very good, the rockery, the pond, and the corridor of the Quyuan. Xia Xun drank afternoon tea and took a walk in the courtyard habitually.Walking to a place where red railings and green tiles overhang the pool, you can see green radishes spreading on the rockery, and a girl in green clothes sits beside her, turning her body slightly, taking a selfie by the water, throwing some food down from time to time, attracting fishes in the water.The plump koi in the water were tossing up and down, which was very spectacular. The girl looked at it sullenly, her brows were frowning slightly, but she seemed a little downhearted. Xia Xun watched quietly for a while, then walked over to her side, she didn't notice, Xia Xun couldn't help laughing: "Why?"This place belongs to the north, so you should be more comfortable with the climate in Jinling. Why do you look lazy? Xiao Ying turned her head and glanced at him, then turned her face away again, and said, "The weather is fine, but it's just that I'm always stuck in this courtyard, and there's only one corner of the sky to see, so it's boring." Xia Xun sat down beside her and said, "Have Qiaoyun taken Xianya to go shopping?"Why don't you go, I never forbid your feet. Sakura said: "They are very interested in walking around. It was fine at first glance, but after a long time, I feel bored. I really don't know where they are so excited. I think my legs are going to break. I really don't want to follow them around." . Xia Xun agreed with this sentence, nodded again and again: "Yes, yes!"Women who love to go shopping can't afford to be hurt, it's too cruel, my legs are about to break, but they can still go shopping happily Xiao Ying couldn't help but chuckle, after thinking about it, she turned her eyes and glanced at Xia Xun, and said earnestly, "Am I very unfeminine?" Xia Xun took a look, Xiao Ying was sitting on the long rail half twisted, her delicate body facing the pool water outwards, her slender waist and hips twisted into a sexy curve, stretching her round and plump buttocks under her skirt into a beautiful circle string.As for the face, the beautiful eyebrows and big eyes, the pupils are as clear as water, but faintly charming, and the red lips line, expressively rendering a youthful feeling on the face Xia Xun sighed: How could it be? If such a woman is considered unfeminine, then what kind of woman is considered feminine? Sakura hesitated and said, "I'm not good at dressing up, I'm not good at putting on makeup, I don't like wearing pearls and hairpin accessories, I don't like shopping, but I don't like being bored at home, I'm not good at knitting, and I don't know how to cook with a spoon." The more Xiao Ying talked, the more guilty she felt, and suddenly found that she really had a lot of shortcomings, except for her appearance and figure, she was really useless, she couldn't help but discouraged and said: I really am not a woman, I should be reincarnated as a man! Hahahaha Xia Xun became more and more interesting the more he listened. He couldn't help laughing, and burst out laughing. Xiao Ying jumped down from the railing and stared at him angrily. Xia Xun smiled and waved her hands, saying: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, wait until I finish laughing."Ha ha ha ha Xia Xun laughed for a long while, then stopped laughing and said: "It's my fault. You are a woman who grew up on the grassland. You are young and your temperament is uncertain. You are asked to live like them. How can you adapt to it?"Well, nothing to do, how about going hunting with me in the outskirts of the city? Sakura said angrily: No, I want to learn to be a woman! Xia Xun joked and said: "What's so good about being a woman, go brother!"
