Yuan Tiangang lived in the Tang Dynasty and was from Chengdu, Sichuan. He is called the divine operator. In the official history, it is really said that astrology is clever, it can break bad luck and predict the future. He once calculated the lives of many celebrities in the present dynasty, and he also calculated divination for Li Shimin and Wu Zetian, and successfully predicted that the future girl Wu Zetian might be the same day. But to tell the truth, there are many such magic sticks in past dynasties, which are not so magical.
The achievements that made him famous in the world and spread through the ages are physiognomy, geomantic omen and accurate prediction. In ancient times, it should be very rare in the history of China to be honored as a master because of geomantic omen, and to enjoy the treatment of being included in the old and new official books of the Tang Dynasty, except for Yuan Tiangang and another strange man, Li.
It is said that Yuan Tiangang's partner and apprentice Li is also a magic stick. They use the Eight Diagrams of Zhouyi to infer the future. As a result, they became addicted and got out of hand. They have been calculating the fate of more than two thousand years after the Tang Dynasty, and are still preparing to continue to calculate and predict the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Fortunately, Yuan Tiangang is relatively calm. He pushed Li on the back and said, "Lao Li, the cat can't be released any more." Take it as soon as possible! " Li gave up like this, so this wonderful prophecy book was named "Pushing the Cup".
Does it look terrible? Yuan Tiangang and Li lived six or seven years before Zhu Yuanzhang founded the Ming Dynasty. How did Yuan Tiangang and Li predict it?
Coincidentally, such a book that predicts future generations is not just a shirking. As early as the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang wrote a book "Lessons from the Past Horse", which also predicted things for thousands of years. Moreover, these two books all regard the world as the ultimate social form, which is eternal, and the prediction ends here.
As for Yuan Tiangang's death, it is also quite legendary. In the eighth year of Zhenguan (635), Yuan Tiangang had a premonition that his time was coming, so he asked Emperor Taizong to let him go home. Emperor Taizong allowed him to go to war, and entrusted Huojing county magistrate to return to Shu County for his post. Gao Shilian once asked him, "What kind of official would you be?" Yuan Tiangang replied: "By April this summer, my life will be exhausted." Sure enough, Yuan Tiangang died as scheduled during the term of office of Huojing County Magistrate.
