What was Yuan Tiangang like in history after the death of Yuan Tiangang, the "demon generation"?

Yuan Tiangang is a man of God in history. His greatest skill is to predict the future. He can predict a person's future by looking at his face. At that time, he was famous for this. He was called into the court by Emperor Taizong and made many predictions about the future of the court ministers. According to historical records, he almost never made a prediction error. So, can Yuan Tiangang really accurately judge this person's future by looking at his face? What's his secret?

Let's take a look at the successful case of Yuan Tiangang. It was in the Sui Dynasty that Du Yan, Wang Jue and Wei Ting invited Yuan Tiangang to visit fortune-teller. Yuan Tiangang said that Du Yan would be famous for his good writing style. What about Wang Jue? In less than ten years, he will be promoted to five-product officer. Wei Ting can only be a military attache. Then, Yuan Tiangang predicted that everyone would be demoted in the future and everyone would meet again. But after that, they will all be promoted. Later, the official careers of the three people were fulfilled one by one.

Because of the Xuanwumen coup, Li, as a group member, was relegated. I really met him after being demoted. Later, they were all re-promoted as officials by Li Shimin. Look at another example. After Emperor Taizong proclaimed himself emperor, he called Yuan Tiangang into the palace. In the eighth year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong asked him to visit his ministers. He first visited the fortune teller in Cen Wenben. He said that Cen Wenben could be a great official, but he would not live long. Then I took Zhang and Ma Zhou there. He said that Ma Zhou has a hunchback, but he looks excellent and can tell, but he won't live long.

Zhang Chengxing can be a prime minister in the future. At that time, there was a minister named Li, who was somewhat arrogant. Fang, let him see what this man can do. Yuan Tiangang said that he could be a five-product official. However, the exact official position is still uncertain. Li snorted and asked what official Fang would be. Yuan Tiangang said with a smile, this man is either rich or expensive! What about you? If you want to be a five-product officer, you have to ask this person!

Later, all Yuan Tiangang's predictions came true. The most amazing thing is Li, who has only been a householder all his life, and he is an official from Liupin. Later, after his death, Tang Gaozong became emperor. I heard about it, so I asked Fang to discuss it. Fang said that he could give him five suggestions about the doctor's office. So he was added as a five-product officer, which was completely in line with Yuan Tiangang's prediction.

So, Yuan Tiangang's prediction is so accurate, can you really see a person's future from the side? Let me express my opinion first. I don't think face has much to do with a person's life experience. What I said is not big, not insignificant, but it still matters. For example, if a person is good-looking, then he (she) will get more attention from everyone in his/her later life. Our time is called "small fresh meat" because those good-looking "small fresh meat" can act and have a successful career, so they will be sought after by everyone.

However, this relationship between face and life is not the same as what Yuan Tiangang said. What Yuan Tiangang said is a question of "fate". As soon as a person is born, his fate has been decided. What he can do in this life, God has already arranged it. Even if he struggles, it's useless. Therefore, the best way is to comply with destiny and let nature take its course. This idea has been very popular since the beginning of human society. In ancient times, divination was very popular, and even the whole country would hold any important activities, such as war or sacrifice, etc., and would first carry out divination and ask God for advice.

The ancients believed in "fate" for two reasons: first, ancient science was underdeveloped, and many natural and life phenomena could not be explained, so they believed in fate and thought that a person's life experience should have been arranged long ago. Second, the ancient rulers also hoped that ordinary people could believe in the "destiny". Because they believe in "destiny", everyone will keep his position, will not run amok, and will not attempt to replace the ruler's rule. Therefore, Yuan Tiangang's theory of seeing faces would have such a market at that time.

Some people may disagree. He said, why did Yuan Tiangang's statement come true later? I think this is because Yuan Tiangang knows this knowledge. One is to understand psychological knowledge. He's obviously giving psychological hints. For example, he said that Du Yan would be famous for his articles in the future. After listening to Du Yan's words, he will definitely pay special attention to literature and study hard. Similarly, he said that Wei Ting would be a military attache, and Wei Ting naturally practiced martial arts frequently. Also, he said that Zhang, Wang Jue and others will be prime ministers, so they will not dabble in their future careers, and will work hard to finally realize their psychological expectations. This psychological suggestion is not only for the minister, but also for the emperor.

Let's not talk about Emperor Taizong and Tang Gaozong, because Yuan Tiangang said those ministers would be officials in the future. Therefore, when arranging official positions, we will naturally rely on that aspect. The second is to know high probability knowledge. When Yuan Tiangang tells people fortune, he rarely dies. It's a high probability question. For example, he said that Ma Zhou will be rich and Fang will be rich, which is actually inaccurate. The third is to understand the knowledge of political science. For example, he said that Fang and Wang Jue would be prime ministers.

This is a reasonable inference based on their origins, their relationship with the Li family at that time, and their personality of dealing with people. Moreover, he said that Li can be a five-product official at most, because he saw that Li was arrogant and didn't mix far in officialdom. In fact, Li was finally connected to Band 6, and Yuan Tiangang's judgment was not accurate. The five products sealed after death were added after Tang Gaozong knew what Yuan Tiangang said. Not that Yuan Tiangang would have predicted it. Thus, Yuan Tiangang is not so magical, but deeper and smarter than others. (Reference:
