On a quiet Ming ** night, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was lying on the gorgeous dragon couch in the palace, and a strange dream broke his tranquility. In the dream, a giant dragon covered in golden scales and radiant flew from the west, staring at Zhu Yuanzhang with blood-red eyes, the long dragon whiskers fluttering in the wind, and the mouth opened as if to devour Zhu Yuanzhang.
When I woke up, it was late at night, and the moonlight was shining on Zhu Yuanzhang's face, but there were uneasy ripples in my heart. As the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he was supposed to be the lord of the world, why did he dream of such a shocking scene?Does it indicate instability or invasion by foreign enemies?
In order to find the answer, Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly summoned a proud think tank - Liu Bowen.
Liu Ji has been brilliant since he was a child, and he is born with an extraordinary desire for knowledge. Read the text easily and digest it at a glance. At the age of twelve, he won the honor of Xiucai and realized his initial dream. After becoming famous at a young age, he had a greater ambition: to become a eunuch. At the age of twenty-three, he finally won the Jinshi Gold List.
However, good times are hard to last. The political situation in the Yuan Dynasty was changing, and although Liu Ji obtained the qualification of Jinshi, he could only wait silently in the countryside for the call of the imperial court. After three long years of waiting, Liu Ji spent a thousand years of silence, until one day, a messenger from the imperial court finally conveyed the news that he had been appointed deputy magistrate of Gao'an County, Jiangxi. For the long-awaited gentleman, the news was like a timely rain in the desert.
Liu Ji embarked on a career in the county and felt the taste of satisfaction and achievement. He adhered to discipline and paid attention to rules, and won the respect and love of the people. However, this performance has also attracted the resentment of local lawless forces and corruption**.
These people used various means and conspiracies to frame him. Although the county magistrate attaches great importance to Liu Ji and tries his best to protect him, Liu Ji knows that this is not the officialdom career he envisions. After a fierce inner struggle, he finally decided to drop everything and return to his hometown.
Just when Liu Ji felt a trace of loss and confusion, Zhu Yuanzhang appeared in his life. Zhu Yuanzhang not only visited Liu Ji many times in person, but also showed his high recognition and trust in him, hoping that he could become one of his think tanks and jointly rebel against the Yuan Dynasty. Liu Ji had long heard of the corruption and injustice of the imperial court, and did not hesitate to devote himself to Zhu Yuanzhang's career. In the days that followed, he provided Zhu Yuanzhang with many valuable suggestions and strategies, which eventually helped him become famous in the first war and establish the Ming Dynasty.
Soon after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he sent Liu Ji to the west to explore the legendary dragon vein, hoping to consolidate the newly established regime. Liu Ji is well aware of the importance of the task, and also understands the difficulties and risks involved. He began to explore the West based on his intuition and years of knowledge of geography and feng shui.
When he set foot on Longshan Mountain in Wuxi, he felt a profound shock. The aura exuded by this mountain range seems to complement Zhu Yuanzhang's own royal temperament. Liu Ji was alert that he had to quickly find a way to nip this potential threat in the bud.
Liu Ji understands that the "Dragon Vein" mountain range is completely different from ordinary terrain and contains an almost mysterious power. Without modern engineering equipment and explosives, it seemed impossible to change the topography of the mountain in order to weaken its power.
He sensed that the soldiers were hesitant because of the presence of an unknown force. So, Liu Ji thought of an ingenious plan and decided to use the power of the people to indirectly achieve his goal.
He secretly ordered some of his trusted men to infiltrate markets and teahouses, and quietly spread rumors about Longshan Mountain in Wuxi, claiming that the land contained special powers and that clay figurines could be used to attract fortune.
As expected, word spread quickly. At first just a few curious villagers came to dig for the earth, but soon, more and more people joined in, and excavation sites of various sizes appeared all over the hillside. In just one month, the face of the mountain has completely changed.
After confirming that the "dragon energy" in the mountains had weakened significantly, Liu Ji decided to take the final step to ensure that this potential threat was completely eliminated. He instructed his men to dig a deep well at the top of the mountain, named "Zhenlong Well", with the aim of permanently sealing the special power here.
Liu Ji's mission is not yet complete, and he continues to travel around the mountains and rivers of the world to find and disarm other potential dragon threats. However, in the series of adventures, nothing bothered him more than the dragon energy contained in the vast natural water system of the Yellow River.
The Yellow River has been the symbol and birthplace of Chinese civilization since ancient times, and its dragon vein power far exceeded Liu Ji's expectations, far more powerful than the Longshan Mountain in Wuxi and other places he had experienced before. In the face of such a force, even Liu Ji couldn't help but feel pressure, realizing that it was difficult to completely eliminate its potential threat by conventional means.
After careful consideration, he decided to dig a number of huge traps in the mountains around the Yellow River and implant special "bundle dragon nails" to limit the range of the Yellow River's dragon veins. These nails undergo special processing and rituals to be able to block the flow of dragon energy.
Liu Ji understood that he could not completely eliminate the Yellow River dragon vein as he did with other dragon veins—this force was too powerful. His goal was to suppress this force as much as possible to ensure that it did not pose a threat to the emerging Ming Dynasty.
In order to strengthen this seal, Liu Ji set up a number of "Hidden Dragon Pavilions" in the main routes of the Yellow River as part of emergency measures and long-term monitoring.
It is rumored that Liu Ji has sealed ninety-nine dragon veins across the country. Amazingly, this large-scale geographical change did not lead to any undesirable consequences, but instead consolidated the rule of the Ming Dynasty.
However, history is often ironic. It is said that because Liu Ji ignored some important dragon veins in the northeast during his exploration, it created opportunities for the rise of the Qing Dynasty and indirectly led to the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
Liu Ji's actions show his talent as a brilliant military strategist and political wiseman, while also revealing how elusive fate and power can sometimes be. Even the most well-planned plans cannot foresee all variables and consequences.
