Chapter 92: Crushing bones and ashes

Chapter 92: Crushing bones and ashes
  After Su Chen finished talking about the situation of the imperial mausoleums of the Yuan Dynasty, the hearts of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were in their throats.

Next is the imperial mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty. All the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were unsure and worried about being retaliated and destroyed by the Qing Dynasty.

Before the Ming Emperor could hesitate for too long, Su Chen continued to introduce the situation of the Ming Emperor's Mausoleum.

"There are a total of fourteen imperial mausoleums in the Ming Dynasty, including the Xiaoling Mausoleum of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang in Nanjing, and the Thirteen Tombs of the Ming Dynasty in Beijing."

"There are three main reasons why the fourteen imperial mausoleums of the Ming Dynasty were not stolen."

"First, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty sent people to repair and care for the Ming Tombs out of consideration for winning over the people, so that the Ming Tombs were well protected."

"Second, the structure of the Ming Dynasty imperial tombs is complex, the underground palace is deep, and excavation is difficult. If you want to rob the Ming Dynasty imperial tombs, it is impossible without sufficient manpower, material and financial resources."

"Third, the imperial mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty is too close to the main city. If there is any disturbance or ghosts, it will definitely cause an uproar. The surrounding garrison will definitely go to catch the thieves. Ordinary tomb robbers will not dare to start, and there is no way to do it."

After hearing that the fourteen imperial mausoleums were not stolen, all the emperors of the Ming Dynasty breathed a long sigh of relief, and the stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground.

It was shocking to see so many imperial tombs stolen from previous dynasties, and they were also worried that their own imperial tombs would follow suit.

Fortunately, I was safe and sound, it was a false alarm, and I could finally feel at ease.

Before Emperor Ming could be happy for too long, Su Chen changed the subject.

"but……"

Suddenly, all the emperors of Ming Dynasty felt their hearts pounding, and they had an unknown premonition in their hearts.

"But in modern times, two imperial tombs had problems, and the other twelve imperial tombs are still intact until now."

Zhu Yuanzhang: Anchor, which two are they? There is no Xiaoling Mausoleum for me, right?
  Su Chen smiled slightly when he saw the barrage and gave Zhu Yuanzhang a reassuring look.

"Your Majesty Hongwu, please rest assured that the Xiaoling Mausoleum is safe and sound. The two imperial mausoleums with problems are Emperor Chongzhen's Siling Mausoleum and Emperor Wanli's Dingling Tomb."

As soon as these words came out, Wanli and Chongzhen instantly lost their composure.

Emperor Wanli: Anchor, tell me quickly, what happened to my Dingling Tomb? Was it stolen?
  Emperor Chongzhen: Anchor, please be sure to tell me the details.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I'll tell you one by one. Let's talk about Emperor Chongzhen's Siling Mausoleum first."

"In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen's reign, Li Zicheng's peasant army captured the capital. Emperor Chongzhen died for his country and was buried on Jingshan Mountain. After Chongzhen's death, few people paid attention to his funeral due to political changes, so people collected two hundred taels for him. Silver, and a ring of bricks around his tomb.”

"There is nothing valuable in Siling Mausoleum. It can be said to be the most ordinary mausoleum. According to the emperor's mausoleum etiquette at that time, five stone offerings were placed in front of Chongzhen's mausoleum. Two of the stone candlesticks were stolen in 2016. "

"So strictly speaking, Siling did not have any burial objects. It just lost two candlesticks. The condition is not bad, and it is not considered stolen."

Chongzhen's mood was very complicated, not because the stone candlestick was stolen.

But his own imperial mausoleum is too shabby, there is not even a decent mausoleum, let alone those rare treasures.

The Ming Dynasty was in turmoil, and he had no time to think about the construction of his imperial mausoleum.

It would be nice if someone could give him a resting place after he hanged himself, and he couldn't ask for too much.

In general, after learning about the theft of his imperial mausoleum, he looked calm and had no worries in his heart. After Su Chen finished talking about the imperial mausoleum in Chongzhen, he didn't know how to tell Emperor Wanli the details for a while. The main reason was that later generations did it too unethically.

After thinking for a moment, Su Chen took a deep breath and decided to tell the truth.

"Let's talk about the situation of Emperor Wanli's Dingling Tomb. First, during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Qianlong stole the rare golden nanmu in Dingling in order to build a mausoleum for himself."

Emperor Wanli: @Qianlong, you are so shameless, don’t you have golden nanmu? You also want to steal the golden nanmu in my mausoleum.

The scandalous things he had done were made public, which made Qianlong feel quite ashamed and embarrassed, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

"In the 1950s, Guo Moruo and Wu Han, an expert on Ming history, discussed it and applied to their superiors to excavate the Ming Tombs, and they quickly received approval."

"The Changling Mausoleum of Emperor Yongle is the ancestral mausoleum of the Thirteen Tombs. It is also the largest and best-preserved imperial mausoleum among the Thirteen Tombs. In theory, it also has the most funerary objects, so Changling Tomb became the first choice of Guo Moruo and Guo Moruo."

Zhu Di:......

"After on-site investigation, archaeologists found that the underground palace of Changling was really difficult to find. They tried various methods but could not find the tomb passage of Changling, so they gave up on Changling for the time being."

"So Guo Moruo and others turned their attention to Dingling. After inspecting Dingling for several weeks, they found that a small part of the Dingling Bao City Wall collapsed. It was precisely because of the flaws exposed by the poor quality of the construction of Dingling that year that they finally found the tomb passage. It also determines the fate of Dingling. I can only say that Dingling is unlucky."

"After finding the tomb passage, everything fell into place. A large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and precious cultural relics were unearthed from the Dingling Tombs. However, due to improper preservation methods, the cultural relics were seriously damaged, which ended the excavation plan of the Ming Tombs."

"In a special era, a certain female director pulled the corpses of Emperor Wanli and two empresses to the square of Dingling Museum, and took along some portraits of the emperors and empresses and other cultural relics for criticism and education."

"The three corpses were smashed with stones and then lit on fire. They were burned completely, completely shattering the bones and scattering ashes."

“Towards the end of the burning, a thunder suddenly exploded in the gloomy sky, and it rained heavily. The turbid rain washed the remaining ashes and bone residue into the drainage ditch in front of the mausoleum. Everything returned to dust, and soil returned to soil. "

When Emperor Wanli heard that he had been crushed to ashes after his death, he was in a trance for a moment. His heart suddenly felt sweet, and he vomited out a large mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

"His Majesty……"

"Hurry...the imperial doctor..."

"Your Majesty... wake up quickly..."

The scene suddenly became chaotic and chaotic.

The imperial doctor quickly came forward to check His Majesty's condition.

Zhang Juzheng looked shocked and asked anxiously: "Tell me quickly, how is your majesty's condition?"

After the expert hands of the imperial doctor, pressing here and pricking there, Emperor Wanli finally came to his senses.

But Wanli looked dull, as if he had lost his soul.

Zhang Juzheng didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only sigh deeply.

Anyone who knows that he will be crushed and ashes after death will probably look like this!
  This made him very angry with the later generations named Guo Moruo. They were also the ancestors of later generations.

Is this how future generations treat their ancestors? Go and dig the tombs of your ancestors?
