Because Liu Bowen believed that the tombs of Zhu Yuanzhang's parents happened to be on a dragon vein, which brought together the feng shui treasures and the time and place in one place. If the tombs were moved, the dragon's energy would be cut off, which would be detrimental to the Ming Dynasty. national destiny.
Zhu Yuanzhang grew up in poverty and hunger. He and his parents and brothers lived a life of endless meals day after day. A famine and plague in his childhood were even more devastating. He took away the lives of all his relatives. However, the penniless Zhu Yuanzhang had no means to bury his parents, so he had to plead with his landlord, hoping that he would be merciful and reward him with a small piece of open space. But the landlord refused. Zhu Yuanzhang's fellow villager Liu Jizu was a kind man, so he gave him a small piece of land so that he could bury his parents safely.
A few years later, when Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, the first thing he thought of was to move his parents' graves to a good location and rebury them. The minister sent there, Liu Bowen, was very proficient in the art of Feng Shui. When he went to the tomb, he was shocked. It turned out that the tombs of Zhu Yuanzhang's parents happened to be on a dragon vein, which brought together all the harmonious atmosphere of the time and place. If the tombs were moved rashly, it would be a disaster. Destroy the dragon's energy, thereby affecting the luck of the Zhu Dynasty.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was overjoyed and ordered people to renovate around the tomb, and finally built the large and magnificent Mingzu Mausoleum.

After all, the art of Feng Shui in China is quite mysterious. Whether they are emperors, nobles or ordinary people, whether they are building a house or choosing a cemetery, they all pay attention to Feng Shui. Even in modern times, most people still value these.
