The Emperor's Blind Fortune Telling _ Ancient Blind Fortune Telling

In costume TV dramas, fortune tellers often watch Feng Shui. They either set up stalls in the streets to let people see the fortune, or just pass by the door and say a few words about their future fate, which will attract the attention of their host family.

For wealthy families, the credibility of these people's words is still very high. No matter what fortune-tellers say is good or bad, they all accept it. In fact, in addition to our common way of predicting a person's future official luck, good or bad luck, dignity and early death by looking at his face, posture, palm print and birth date, there is another method that sounds incredible, that is, listening to sounds with bones.

Literally, this method is to judge a person's future development by touching his bones and listening to his voice. Although it sounds mysterious, there really are such masters in history, and there are clear records.

The first article is about the record of the Xuanyi Queen Fu. Li Chongxun was the first person Fu married, and that person's father, Li Shouzhen, was from our time. At that time, Li Shouzhen found a fortune teller to tell his family's fortune, because he wanted to know how the family would develop in the future. To say that this blind fortune teller is really a listening expert. Although I can't see it, when Fu Shi opens his mouth, the fortuneteller bluntly says that she must be the master of ceremonies in the future.

Hearing this, Li Shouzhen couldn't hide his joy. Doesn't this mean that her daughter-in-law will be queen in the future? Because of the fortune teller's prediction, Li Shouzhen later rebelled, and his father and son committed suicide one after another because of failure. As for Fu Shi, after the father and son committed suicide, they remarried to Chai Rong, later Zhou Shizong. As the fortune teller said, Fu really became the queen.

Another story was recorded by Zhao Yi, a writer in Qing Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, there was a blind physiognomist with a historical surname who was good at listening to sounds with bones. At that time, the governor of Zhejiang Province asked him to tell his grandson's fortune. There was a teacher at the scene, Wang Youdun, so he calculated it for him. After touching the bones for two people, the fortune teller bluntly said that these two people would be rich in the future.

Wang Youdun's family is poor and has failed many exams. In order to make a living, he can only be a teacher. At that time, he didn't take the fortune teller's words to heart at all, only thought they were the words of goodwill from the other side. Unexpectedly, the historian actually took the initiative to visit, and said that Wang Youdun would have a higher official position than the governor in the future.

Seeing Wang Youdun's incredible expression, the fortune teller once again declared: Mr. Wang is just a poor scholar. I don't need to coax you at all. As long as you work hard, my judgment will come true. Only in the future, I may have a sudden disaster, and it will last for many years. I hope you can save my life when you were in a prominent position. Finally, the fortune teller told Wang Youdun his name, hoping that he would keep it in mind and lend a helping hand.

On the recommendation of others, the historian came to Yongzheng. At first, the emperor trusted him very much and talked with him about many things every day, but suddenly one day, the historian was exiled by the furious Yongzheng, and he was never pardoned. The disaster he said for many years has finally come. Later, Qianlong granted amnesty to the whole world, but historians were not pardoned and were still in exile. At this time, Wang Youdun was already a minister of punishments.

He saw the name of the historian in the criminal file and remembered the conversation many years ago, so he volunteered to plead with the emperor and the historian was freed. And because of their original friendship, Wang Youdun also specially took him to the government. Because her son, Wang Chenglong, was going to take the imperial examination, Mrs. Wang was very worried about her son's development and specially asked the historians for their opinions. Previously, random fortune telling suffered such a change. Today's historians are unwilling to predict anyone's future too much, but they can't resist Mrs. Wang's plea. They can only say that he can get a six-level official position.

Mrs. Wang was completely relieved when she heard this. Anyone who can get this title will definitely be admitted to Jinshi. Unfortunately, because Wang Youdun was an examiner, his son had to give up the exam in order to avoid suspicion. Because of this result, Shi was also laughed at. Unexpectedly, after the imperial examination, because the emperor personally ordered, Wang Chenglong took the post of a leading official, which happened to be the title of six products.
