Why didn t Yongzheng be buried with his father and grandfather, and what was the reason?

In ancient China, the custom of burying a son with his father has always been pursuedOrdinary people are like this, and the emperor is even more so, generally the founding emperor is buried in **, and the descendants of later generations are buried in **, such as the Ming Tombs, but the Qing Dynasty was an accidentThere are three tombs of the Qing emperors.

Before the Qing Dynasty entered the customs to unify the Central Plains, Nurhachi and Huang Taiji were buried outside the pass, which was the first mausoleum group of the Qing DynastyAfter Aixin Jueluo entered the Central Plains, there were two mausoleums in the Guannei Qingxi Mausoleum and the Qing Dongling Mausoleum, in fact, there was only one originally, that is, the Qing Dongling, but the Yongzheng Emperor broke this custom and buried himself in the Qingxi Mausoleum. As the first emperor after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, Emperor Shunzhi certainly found a good place for himself and his descendants, that is, the Qing Dongling, Emperor Kangxi also pursued the burial of his son with his father and buried himself in the Eastern Mausoleum of the Qing Dynasty, butIn the Yongzheng period, the maverick emperor broke this rule and chose another place to build a mausoleum, far away from his grandfather and father.

One of the sayings is:Yongzheng was plotting to usurp the throne, and the throne was not right, and he was afraid that he would have no face to face Emperor Kangxi after his death, so he built his mausoleum far away from Kangxi, so as not to be punished after death, butThis argument does not stand up to scrutiny, First of all, according to the current evidence, Emperor Yongzheng was not a usurper, and secondly, although the ancients believed in the theory of ghosts and gods, can they avoid seeing their father after death if they are far away? If Yongzheng believes in the theory of ghosts and gods, then he may meet his father when he builds **.

In fact, the real reason is still a feng shui problem, Yongzheng is a perfect perfectionist, in the seventh year of Yongzheng, he asked the feng shui master to explore the tomb address for himself, but there are certain flaws in the **, so how can Yongzheng agree, so Yongzheng asked them not to be limited to the Qing Dongling,You can go to other places to find feng shui treasures, and finally choose the Qingxi Mausoleum.

The second is that Emperor Yongzheng was originally a maverick figureInherently good at breaking the routine, not according to common sense to play cards,In the Qing Dongling, there are two emperors' tombs in front of him, and the feng shui is not good, in the Qing Xiling, he is the first to open the world, and it is a treasure land with good feng shui, Yongzheng, who has never been bound by the ancestral family law, will of course choose the second,However, in order to prevent future generations from following him in the Qing Xiling Tomb, the Qianlong Emperor snubbed the Qing Dongling, so he left a system of building mausoleums in the Dongling and Xiling Tombs in accordance with the order of Zhaomu, and buried them in the next generation, one on each side.

The main reason is that Yongzheng's succession to the throne is a bit unjustifiable, so he doesn't dare to do this.

The location of the Qing Dongling Mausoleum where Kangxi is located is not good in feng shui.

I must have felt that I had done a bad job, so I didn't dare to bury myself with my father.

Perhaps he was afraid to see his father, so he didn't dare to be buried in the same cemetery.

The Qing and Qing emperors were strictly regulated where they were buried. They can't be in the same grave as their father.

This is naturally because he is afraid to see his father, after all, these behaviors are not easy to explain.

This is because Yongzheng has a different personality and ideas from others, and dares to create a new pattern, so in the end he did not agree to be buried with his father and grandfather.

Ancient people were more superstitious, even the emperor was no exception, Yongzheng found someone to calculate a hexagram, there is a better feng shui treasure than the imperial tomb, so Yongzheng felt that he was buried there.

Because Yongzheng's character belongs to the kind of maverick, after looking for a long time, he found that the Dongling where his father and grandfather were buried was not an auspicious place, so he built another Xiling and became the first owner of Xiling.

One theory is that he did not dare to face his father, another theory is that he felt that his father's mausoleum had bad feng shui, and another theory is that he felt that he was an emperor who had made a difference and did not want to be buried with other emperors.

In fact, this is the reason why Emperor Yongzheng is more superstitious, the feng shui of Dongling is not as good as Xiling, so Emperor Yongzheng will ignore gossip and still insist on burying himself in Xiling after a hundred years.

1. Yongzheng pays attention to feng shui, so when choosing a mausoleum, after many considerations, it was determined that the feng shui of Qingxi Mausoleum was better than that of Dongling.

2. Maverick and unique status. Yongzheng made outstanding contributions to the stability of the Qing Dynasty during his reign, and in his own opinion, his merits were not inferior to his father's, so he finally chose to bury himself in Xiling.

Because Yongzheng pursued perfection very much, he was not satisfied with the location chosen by the feng shui master in Tanglin at the beginning, and later found Qingxi Mausoleum, so he was not buried with his father and grandfather.

The imperial tombs of each dynasty in ancient times were generally buried in one place, such as the Ming Tombs of the Ming Dynasty, the Eight Tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty and the Six Tombs of the Southern Song Dynasty. But there is one dynasty that is an exception, and that is the Qing Dynasty. The emperor's tombs of the Qing Dynasty are distributed in three places, one is the imperial tomb outside Shenyang Pass, and the other two are the Qing Western Tomb and the Qing Eastern Tomb.

As the first emperor to enter the customs, Emperor Shunzhi chose the Feng Shui treasure site of the Qing Dynasty, in Changrui Mountain in today's Tangshan, Hebei. Emperor Kangxi and Shunzhi were buried together, but in the Yongzheng period, he built a mausoleum alone in Yi County in the west, which is what we call the Qingxi Mausoleum. So, as the third emperor of the Qing Dynasty, why didn't Yongzheng be buried with his elders?

1. Folklore has it that Yongzheng was not the emperor appointed by Kangxi. There is a widely circulated saying among the people about this matter, saying that Kangxi's original intention was not to let Yongzheng be the emperor, but someone else, but Yongzheng went against Kangxi's will and snatched the emperor's position from his brother, so after Yongzheng died, he was afraid to face his father, so he chose the cemetery far away from Kangxi. But this statement is not recorded in this history book, and as for who Kangxi wants to establish, there is no conclusion, so he can only refer to it.

Second, the feng shui of Qingxi Tomb is good. In ancient times, from the royal palace nobles to the ordinary people, people wanted to be buried in a feng shui treasure after death. For Yongzheng, he believes in the existence of feng shui treasures.

According to the Qing Historical Manuscript, Yongzheng was a person who respected Taoism and often told fortunes to Clone, so Yongzheng valued the feng shui of Xiling, so he buried himself in that place.

3. Yongzheng is a relatively independent and special emperor. During the reign of Yongzheng, he made great contributions to the development of the Qing Dynasty, and a series of problems left by Kangxi were improved. Yongzheng's actions prove that Yongzheng is a person with ideas and abilities, so when choosing his own cemetery, he also has his own opinions.

One is that Yongzheng's throne was usurped, and he didn't dare to face his father and grandfather, and one was due to feng shui, thinking that there was no suitable location near Xiaoxiao Mausoleum Jingling, and feng shui could not be perfect.

At present, there are three inconsistent theories about why Yongzheng was not buried in the same cemetery with his father Kangxi after his death, the first is related to the statement that Yongzheng is plotting to usurp the throne, the second is that Yongzheng did not have the face to see his father after his death, and the third is that Yongzheng feels that the feng shui of the Qing Dongling is not good.

The Qing Dynasty was an era when China's ethnic minorities were the masters of their own affairs, but before the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, their folk customs were fundamentally different from those of the Han people. Take the mausoleum as an example, before they were the masters of the house, their mausoleums were very simple, but after they took control of the state power, their customs were naturally affected by cultural shock, and they began to pay attention to many things.

1. In the eyes of everyone now, when it comes to Yongzheng, it is either the prosperity of Yongzheng's reign, or the reason why Yongzheng can control the state power. After Yongzheng's death, he was not buried in the same cemetery as his father, which is said to be related to the possibility of Yongzheng seeking to usurp the throne at that time. According to the available historical data, Kangxi preferred his fourteenth son at that time, but it was Yongzheng who became the ruler in the end, which is inevitably incredible.

Second, after Yongzheng's death, he had no face to see his father Kangxi after his death, Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, in order to consolidate his rule, he killed his relatives, some were imprisoned, some were killed, it can be said that he killed his brothers. Maybe he was weak about his actions, so that he had no face to see his father Kangxi after his death.

Third, the feng shui of the Qing Dongling is not good In ancient times, the place where people were buried after death was also very exquisite, and they generally looked at feng shui. Why Yongzheng did not choose the Qing Dongling where his father Kangxi was located is probably related to the feng shui of the Qing Dongling. The Qingxi Mausoleum where Yongzheng is located, is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the feng shui is extremely good, and he feels that he should let himself be carefree after death, so he thinks of finding another place to settle the future.

In any case, the prosperity brought by Yongzheng is obvious to everyone through the history books, and only he may know where he was buried after his death.

After Yongzheng's death, the main reason why he was not buried in the same cemetery as his father Kangxi is said to be because Yongzheng's throne was obtained by seeking power and usurping the throne, so he did not dare to be buried in the same cemetery as his father.

Because Yongzheng imprisoned his brothers and killed his relatives in order to consolidate the imperial power, he thought that he had no face to see his father.

According to legend, Kangxi's preferred candidate for emperor was not Yongzheng, but Yongzheng changed the edict without authorization, and imprisoned and killed the other brothers. Maybe Yongzheng was afraid that he would be scolded for seeing Kangxi after his death, so he was buried in another cemetery.

Yongzheng went to other places to build a Xiling, and was not buried in Dongling with Kangxi, becoming the originator of the Qing Dynasty's father and son who did not meet.

For many years, the succession of the Yongzheng Emperor has been a great controversy among modern scholars and the public. Many people believe that Yongzheng's throne was obtained by tampering with the will, so he was worried that Kangxi was in his heart, and he felt that he did not have the face to face his father after his death, so he built another Xiling. But this statement has never been established, because there are too many doubts to convince everyone, so the credibility is zero.

In addition, some people think that Yongzheng and Kangxi have a bad relationship, so they themselves are reluctant to be buried in the cemetery with their father. Then again, in the imperial family, how many emperors are close to their sons? Not to mention feelings, being able to get along is already a snicker.

However, according to all aspects, the father-son relationship between Yongzheng and Kangxi is not as strange and emotionless as the world has rumored. Therefore, for the "mystery" of Yongzheng's construction of Xiling, we can't guess based on personal feelings alone, this method is not feasible.

In fact, Yongzheng originally planned to be buried in Dongling, and sent people to investigate feng shui, which was originally built on Chaoyang Mountain, Jiufeng Mountain, and tried to start construction. However, the best mausoleums in Tanglin Feng Shui have already buried Shunzhi and Kangxi, which directly affected Yongzheng's construction plan for the mausoleum.

Therefore, Yongzheng did not choose to establish a tomb in Dongling, but used the excuse that the cemetery was "large in scale but incomplete in shape, and the soil in the cave was with sand and gravel", he shifted his attention to Baoding County, and finally built his own Tailing under Taining Mountain in Yi County. Therefore, there is a legend that father and son do not see each other after their deaths, as well as the difference between the Qing Xiling and the Qing Dongling.

This is also a mystery in history, and some people speculate that it is because of the position left by Dongling to Yongzheng, Yongzheng is not satisfied with this, so he sent people to find Xiling to be buried.

Yongzheng kept the mausoleum away from Kangxi, and I think this is still a mystery, because Yongzheng's thoughts are now unknown. It is possible that Yongzheng felt that Dongling was not suitable, so he moved the mausoleum to Xiling.

I think there were some contradictions between Yongzheng and Qianlong, but they didn't show it, so Yongzheng built his mausoleum in Xiling. There should be some secrets between them, but we don't know about them now.

Yongzheng has been dead for so long, we can only guess what he thinks. Personally, I think either he thinks it's not appropriate to be in the same mausoleum as Kangxi, or he has a better place.

I think it's because Yongzheng found a more suitable mausoleum that he likes more, or maybe he and Emperor Kangxi have some unknown secrets, so he can't enter Dongling.

Although the emperor's mausoleum will be selected in advance, and it is basically together, but at that time, for the mausoleum where Kangxi was located, Li Shimin thought that there was no more prominent position for him, so he chose another mausoleum.

Personally, I think there must be some unknown contradiction between Yongzheng and Kangxi, so I don't want to be buried in the same mausoleum.

I think this is because Yongzheng has his own ideas, and he didn't have good achievements when he was in power, so he didn't want to be buried with Kangxi.

Personally, I think there must be an ulterior contradiction between Yongzheng and Kangxi. Or as Yeshi guessed, Yongzheng's throne came unjustly.

I don't think so, judging from this TV series, the relationship between the fourth master and the fourteenth master is not in harmony, and letting the old fourteen go to guard the imperial mausoleum is actually to keep him away from the center of power and not fight for power with himself.

No, it's to keep his throne from being remembered by anyone, so that he can sit more securely on the throne.
