After the ancestral tomb of the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, why did the Ming Dynasty fall?

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was precisely because of the imperial court's inability to fight the liukou that the imperial tomb was broken, and the country was soon destroyed.

The Ming Dynasty fell because the ancestral tombs of the Ming Dynasty were destroyed and there were no ancestors of their own.

This has nothing to do with the destruction of the ancestral tomb, mainly because the internal rulers of the Ming Dynasty were too corrupt.

Destroying ancestral tombs is like cutting off lifeblood, which is a very superstitious saying in ancient times, so it will promote the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming people destroyed the mountain to the point of the 'dragon head' of the main dragon vein of Jiulong Mountain on which the Jin Taizu Rui Mausoleum depended, which is the so-called 'cutting the dragon's head'.

Their ancestral graves were destroyed because they were unable to protect them.

The destruction of the ancestral tomb of the Ming Dynasty also means the demise of the Ming Dynasty, which is closely related.

According to legend, it is the place where the dragon is destroyed, that is, the gas is exhausted, and the ancients value the ancestral tomb very much, but it is not so evil, the corruption of the rule, and the people are not living

It is reported that "after the Ming army drove to the Jinren Mausoleum area in Fangshan, they burned and excavated on a large scale, and the flames of the entire mausoleum area rose, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.

Because there is no need to excavate at the moment, and our country has organized a non-rescue excavation in the last century, and there are very painful lessons. At that time, the excavation was the tomb of the Wanli Emperor in the Ming Ming Tombs, and without the protection of the relevant unearthed cultural relics technology, the result of the excavation was that many cultural relics were destroyed as soon as they came into contact with the fresh air.

It is in this case, so China's first only for the time that has been stolen or due to the planning to occupy the land and some other necessary protective measures, will be rescued or called protective excavation, especially because of the traditional Chinese funeral system, there are a large number of precious cultural relics buried in the tombs of emperors in the past dynasties.

Golden Silk Wings Good Crown.

For example, the bamboo slips unearthed in many tombs, after thousands of years of erosion in the ground, as well as the chemical changes that occur after contact with the air, are very unfavorable to the protection of bamboo slips, so with the current level of science and technology, the state is absolutely not allowed to take the initiative to excavate when the ancient tombs are not destroyed or invaded. The Yongle Canon is about 370 million words, a total of 1,110 volumes, and its content includes rich information on literature and art, history and geography, philosophy, religion and applied science before the Ming Dynasty in China.

"Yongle Canon".

The first compilation of the Yongle Canon was completed in the second year of Yongle, and it was revised in the second year, and it was not until the fifth year of Yongle that the book was revised again, and the Yongle Emperor named it "Yongle Canon". This book, which is known as the world's largest encyclopedia of 100 answers, is ill-fated, and after a natural disaster, the original has disappeared. According to relevant speculation, the original of the "Yongle Canon" is in the underground palace where the Jiajing Emperor is buried, and this statement has been recognized by many people, but the Yongling Tomb where the Jiajing Emperor is buried has not been excavated so far, so it is impossible to know whether the "Yongle Canon" is buried in it.

Both tombs were damaged, but in different circumstances.

The Ming Emperor's Mausoleum was destroyed by Zhang Xianzhong's rebel army, when Zhang Xianzhong captured Fengyang and set fire to the Ming Emperor's Mausoleum, but there is no record of digging the underground palace, only the ground buildings were burned.

Ming ancestral mausoleum is because of natural environmental factors, Ming ancestral mausoleum is close to the Huai River, the Yellow River has taken Huai many times in history, resulting in flooding on both sides of the Huai River, Ming ancestral mausoleum was flooded in the Kangxi period, until the founding of the People's Republic of China did not see the light of day, there is no record of being destroyed by the rebel army in history.

The relationship between the destruction of the imperial tomb and the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Xianzhong burned the Ming Emperor's Mausoleum in the eighth year of Chongzhen, and the fall of the Ming Dynasty was in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, ten years apart, so is there a relationship between the two?

Of course! But it was not because the ancestral tomb was dug up and destroyed the dragon vein that led to the demise of the Ming Dynasty, but because the Ming Dynasty was about to fall that the ancestral tomb was dug up!

When Emperor Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, the Ming Dynasty was already in turmoil and on the eve of the country's demise.

Outside, the Jin army is pressing forward step by step, Shenyang and other important towns outside the border have fallen into the hands of the enemy, and the northeastern territory has been lost.

Above the court, although the eunuch party led by Wei Zhongxian was eradicated, the party struggle in Donglin intensified, and the national interests were thrown aside.

And because of the Xiaoice Period, the land of Guanzhong was thousands of miles away, and plagues broke out frequently in Hebei and other places, and the people were not able to make a living.

In the context of domestic and foreign difficulties, large-scale peasant uprisings such as Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong broke out, and the decadent imperial court was no longer able to suppress it, and the image of the country had appeared.

It was really because the Ming Dynasty was about to fall and was unable to resist the rebel army, which caused Fengyang, the land of Taizu Longxing, to fall into the hands of Zhang Xianzhong, and the unguarded Ming Ancestral Mausoleum could only be slaughtered.

Not only the Ming Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty destroyed Xiang Yu burned the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the Western Han Dynasty destroyed the Red Mei Army ravaged the Imperial Mausoleum, and the Imperial Mausoleum of the Huangchao Rebellion in the late Tang Dynasty was also destroyed.

There is no feng shui exquisiteness, and at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was precisely because the imperial court was unable to fight the liukou that the imperial tomb was broken, and the country was destroyed soon.

Because the ancestral tomb is a sacred and solemn place of the royal family, if the ancestral tomb is destroyed, then it indicates that the capital of the country has been captured, and his destruction is not far away.

The Ming Dynasty fell because of a catastrophe, the peasants had no food to eat so they rebelled, and there was a Qing army attacking outside, which had nothing to do with the destruction of the ancestral tomb.

The imperial mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty was set by Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di in the military important place, these are important military garrisons, and it is particularly close to the imperial city, and the protection of the imperial mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty is relatively in place. The security of the Qing Dynasty mausoleums mainly relied on the guards of the mausoleum, which was not inappropriate during the strong period of the Qing Dynasty, but in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, the cost of security and construction of the mausoleum was much less than before. Compared with the mausoleums of the previous dynasties, the design of the Qing Dynasty mausoleums is somewhat "low-profile" and easy to be stolen.

First of all, the protection of the mausoleum in the Ming Dynasty was more rigorous and institutionalized than before. For example, those who plot to destroy mountains and tombs will be sentenced to death regardless of whether they are the masterminds or conspirators; Stealing the sacrificial vessels, curtains, and other things used by the royal deities in the great worship will be beheaded; Those who cut down trees in the mountains were beheaded, and their families were sent to the border army. In addition, the Ming Dynasty specially set up a shrine to guard the mausoleum.

There is also a garrison to guard the exterior of the mausoleum.

During the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty also protected the Han people. Although Huang Taiji burned the ground buildings of Dingling and Deling, the official destruction was nothing more. The Qianlong Dynasty also repaired the ground buildings, although the demolition was large and small, but the original intention was not to destroy.

The previous replacement of the Ming and Qing dynasties did not cause a long period of inactivity in Beijing, giving private tomb robbers a chance.

The Ming Dynasty "the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies in Sheji", which was the last feudal regime established by the Han people, and the Qing army belonged to the Manchus, although the comprehensive strength was better than that of the Han and Tang Dynasties, but the polarization of the government and the opposition was very serious.

<> has been scolded by the world for thousands of years and lost all conscience, in fact, tomb robbers dig up other people's ancestral graves, and some thieves also do this kind of business. When Chongqing was under the throne, it was already the last years of the Ming Dynasty, and there were many villains, and the people were miserable. As a result, an army of revolt appeared among the peasants, led by Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others.

Emperor Chongzhen realized the danger of the rebel army to the Ming Dynasty at that time, so he sent fierce generals to encircle and suppress it.

Just when they were about to wipe them out, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong's military vision chose to flee to Nanfeng, the central capital of the Ming Dynasty. Because it is difficult to escape death if you flee to Beijing or Nanjing, and Fengyangdi is Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown. Because the ancestral tomb is buried here, it is called the treasure of the dragon's lair.

In order not to destroy the dragon vein, there were no walls or defensive structures built here.

The destruction of the Ming Dynasty is really a matter of time, the second emperor before the destruction of the Ming Dynasty, that is, a master of carpentry, people do not want to be an emperor, they like to do carpentry.

So when the Ming Dynasty was in power as this carpentry emperor, it was basically controlled by the eunuch Wei Zhongxian, and a eunuch do you think he would lose the country.

Fortunately, this carpentry emperor died early, and then the last emperor, Emperor Chongzhen, ascended the throne, and he killed Wei Zhongxian, but the country still entered a state of decline, and the treasury did not have the amount of silver, so it could not afford to raise so many soldiers.

And at this time, there was an uprising of King Li Zicheng, and the people who were forced to have no choice but to revolt, and there was a golden soldier of Huang Taiji outside.

Finally, a Yuan Chonghuan was able to help Emperor Chongzhen repel these two forces, but Emperor Chongzhen also cut Yuan Chonghuan with a thousand knives because of someone else's frame.

When Li Zicheng called, Emperor Chongzhen could have run, but he didn't run and waited for his army to save him, but those people were all the lords of the mountain, and no one was willing to send troops.

And Wu Sangui saw that his general Yuan Chonghuan died so miserably, and he dared to fight desperately, so the Ming Dynasty was destroyed.
