0451 Qianlong Imperial System
In 1860, when the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded, Sunset and Gaul chickens looted and burned down the Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens, but most of the buildings remained undamaged.
In the decades that followed, the Qing government renovated these places, including the goldfish pond.
When it came to Cixi's meeting, Guangxu's reform was blocked by Cixi, and the minister Ronglu proposed to abolish Guangxu and let Lafayette continue to listen to the government.
Guangxu was very frightened when he heard about it, and asked Tan Citong to go to Yuan Shikai and ask Yuan Shikai to raise troops to kill Rong Lu and make an immortal achievement.
Yuan Shikai, the old thief, agreed on the surface and made a generous statement.
"If the emperor is in my military camp and orders me to do it, then killing a Ronglu is like killing a dog's ear"
However, as soon as Tan Citong left, Yuan Shikai turned his back and sold the six gentlemen of Wuxu.
Cixi would definitely not let Emperor Guangxu go, so she put Guangxu under house arrest.
At that time, there were several places for Cixi to choose, the first of which was this Old Summer Palace.
The second is Yingtai. It's that little island.
The third is Yulan Hall.
At that time, the fish cellar of the goldfish pond was connected, and there was a secret passage leading to the Penglai Yaotai next door, in order to prevent Guangxu from escaping, so Rong Lu ordered the fish cellar to be sealed.
After the fall of the Manchu Dynasty, the Old Summer Palace was abandoned and became the fragrant bait of the new nobles.
Time has passed, and by now, all the people who knew the secret have died.
Jin Feng didn't expect to come here, because this is a scenic spot, and there are people guarding it anytime and anywhere.
However, this excavation and accident created this opportunity for Jin Feng.
If you don't take advantage of this opportunity, you won't be able tolerate.
After entering the secret passage, the small secret passage suddenly became bigger, and the secret passage was eerie and terrifying with a height of one meter and a width of one meter, with a cold wind gusting and a biting cold.
The green bricks around the secret passage are still seeping with layers of mist, and there is some water under your feet, and you can soak the instep in the deepest place.
The deeper you go, the smaller the exit behind you becomes, and it gradually becomes a watermelon-sized point of light.
Outside is as hot as 30 degrees Celsius, but inside it is as cold as early winter, and the further you go inside, the colder it becomes.
This secret passage, which has been sealed in the dust for a full hundred and fifty years, is opened for the first time today.
The length of the secret passage is not long, only two or three hundred meters, and when you reach the end, when you look back, the hole at the exit has become the size of an ant.
At the end of the place is a wooden door that is no more than a meter wide, most of the wooden door has rotted over time, and some remnants of vermilion lacquer can still be seen on it.
Through the rotten and crooked wooden door, under the lighting of the mobile phone, it was pitch black behind the wooden door.
Gently kicked open the wooden door and slowly walked into this unknown place with his mobile phone.
In front of me was a small room, but it was only twenty or thirty square meters, and the height was only two meters, which seemed very depressing.
On the other side of the room, there is also a wooden door, which leads to Penglai Yaotai.
In 1860, not long after the Eight-Nation Alliance sacked the Old Summer Palace, Ergin ordered it to be set on fire, and thousands of eunuchs, palace guards and miscellaneous servants stationed in the Old Summer Palace were burned to death and more than 500 were killed.
At that time, the handymen and workers who built the Old Summer Palace ran into this passage to take refuge and escaped the catastrophe.
I took a few steps on my phone, and everything in the room was clear at a glance.
In a few corners, there were just a few ordinary bottles of blue and white, pastel, and enamel, and nothing else.
Jin Feng was disappointed!
A hundred years ago, I heard about this secret passage from the mouth of an old eunuch who was about to die, and at that time I was busy looking for the big ding all over the world, and I had no time to come over.
Now that I'm here, I have been a little disappointed.
Keep walking with your feet up and go straight to the opposite door.
"Smack!"
A crisp voice came from under his feet, and he looked down.
A person's bones and mouth are so open that the boss stares at Jin Feng!
One of Jin Feng's feet stepped on top of a corpse.
Jin Feng's face changed suddenly, and he immediately retracted his feet, but he was not in a hurry to leave, but squatted beside the corpse, put on deerskin gloves and gently turned up the corpse.
It's a very strange skeleton.
The head was tilted towards the wall, the mouth was wide open, but the two hands were pressed under the body, and the feet were tightly together.
Looking at the appearance of this corpse, it is obvious that it has experienced great torture and pain during its lifetime.
Holding the dagger a foot behind the bone's head, Jin Feng picked up a piece of blackened silk.
Only a small piece of silk is the size of a mobile phone, and some gold threads can still be seen on it.
Thinking that this should be a silk scarf, this corpse should be a female corpse, covered by a silk scarf.
Sure enough, Jin Feng found another rope ash at the foot of the female corpse. proved their own inferences.
Then, Jin Feng picked up a jade plaque among the bones.
The deerskin gloves rubbed twice, and Jin Feng snorted.
The jade plate is made of mutton fat and white jade, and it has been stained with a large piece of blood. But the rest of the area is crystal white, flawless and shiny.
The texture is even warmer and more delicate.
This is the finest mutton fat white jade, with a touch of pink in the white, like the fat of the mutton that has just been cut.
When the deerskin gloves were rubbed, the brand was engraved with gold and jade, and a line of words was engraved on the back, but it was engraved in Manchu.
"Dogba!"
"How could it be him?" "Didn't he die of illness?"
"How did you end up here?"
Jin Feng closed his eyes slightly, and quickly turned out the information of this person in his mind.
Dogba was a person in the Qianlong period, a servant of the Red Banner, and once achieved the position of a minister in the palace.
The only thing that this person is famous for is that he is the righteous son of a big corrupt official and Shen. took the line of Heshen and went out to Jiangnan as the commander of the rich world, which made a lot of money.
Backed by the mountain of Heshen, Docba had a smooth journey, achieved the position of the minister of the scattered rank, and walked on an errand in the inner palace.
This loose rank minister is a very good official position, guarding the ministers, and meeting the emperor casually.
He Shen's son Fengshen Yinde was also a minister of loose rank back then, and he also married Qianlong's daughter and became a concubine.
On the day of Qianlong's funeral, Jiaqing's three-foot white silk asked for Heshen's old life. It is recorded in the history books that Docba escaped for some reason, and died of illness the following year.
But how could this person's body appear in this secret passage?
Jin Feng pondered for a few seconds, no longer thinking about the question, and then rummaged through Docpa's corpse for a while, picking out a light green wrench with his dagger.
The wrench is made of jadeite, which is clear at a glance.
The texture is waxy, the color is light green with white, and it is not full of green.
The outer wall of the wrench is plain and clean, and there is no carved pattern or the like.
This wrench is in line with Docpa's status as a military general.
In the Manchu Qing Dynasty, there were extremely strict regulations on wearing wrenches, and jadeite, tourmaline, and coral level wrenches were only worn by nobles.
Ordinary flag men can only wear white jade.
The wrenches of civil officials have patterns and poems, and the wrenches of military generals are basically smooth and plain.
At the waist position, Jin Feng also found a waist card, made of silver.
The name written on it is indeed Docpa, and the position of Docba is engraved in detail on the back.
The appearance of this waist card confirmed the identity of Docba.
Jin Feng then found several belongings on Docpa's head and back, some silver, and a snuffbox.
When the snuffbox was in his hand, Jin Feng changed color slightly.
This snuffbox turned out to be yellow on a yellow background.
Needless to say, this thing is from the palace, and it is also used by the emperor.
The shape of the snuff bottle is also unique, it is actually gourd-shaped, painted with enamel color.
The utensils are painted with two plum blossoms of one white and one pink, there are four on each side of the front and back, the painting is particularly fine and smooth, and even the stamens of more than a dozen pink and white plum blossoms are depicted very exquisitely.
The most rare thing is that the cap of this snuff box is made of green jadeite, and there is a pearl with a diameter of more than two centimeters on the lid.
At the bottom of the snuff bottle is engraved is the Qianlong imperial four blue and white fonts, although there is no circle, but the writing is also quite neat.
Qianlong's imperial snuff bottle. It means that this thing was made by the Qing Palace.
According to statistics, there are about 30,000 or 40,000 pieces engraved with the four-character model of the Qianlong Imperial System, and there must be dozens of snuff bottles.
However, it is rare to see such yellow ground enamel color.
In particular, the full green lid and the pearl on the lid add to the value of this snuffbox.
Snuff bottles were very popular in the Qing Dynasty, from the princes and nobles to the common people, almost everyone had one.
Docba actually has Emperor Qianlong's snuffbox on him, which is a bit interesting.
It should have been given to Docba by Emperor Qianlong.
