Chapter 525

——【Li Shuling, hehe.】

Because of digging out the Nine Dragons and Nine Phoenixes Crown before, plus the current Three Dragons and Two Phoenixes Crown.

And, Empress Xiaoduan and Empress Xiaojing are always confused by people. Under these circumstances, Fang Yang felt it was very necessary to make some explanations.

As usual, he directly pinched his chin, thought seriously for a while, and then opened his mouth to explain: "Empress Xiaoduan and Empress Xiaojing, both of these were empresses of the Wanli Emperor."

"Empress Xiaojing was the birth mother of the later Ming Guangzong, Zhu Changluo, Lady Wang."

"She passed away in the 39th year of Wanli."

"She gave birth to the eldest son for the Wanli Emperor, but the Wanli Emperor never liked her, and also didn't like his eldest son."

"Therefore, when Empress Xiaojing passed away, she could only be buried with the status of Imperial Noble Consort; she was the first person to pass away."

"And Empress Xiaoduan was the original wife of the Wanli Emperor. She passed away on the 6th day of the fourth month of the 48th year of Wanli. By the 9th day of the sixth month, the underground palace of the Dingling Tomb was opened."

"At this time, the burial work hadn't even been finished yet."

"On the 21st day of the seventh month of the 48th year of Wanli, the Wanli Emperor also passed away."

"They all passed away in this year."

"After the emperor died, the successor was Zhu Changluo."

"The first thing Zhu Changluo did after taking the throne was to promote his mother, his birth mother, from the position of Imperial Noble Consort to Empress Dowager."

"The level had been raised at this time, so she shouldn't be buried in the original place; the tomb should be moved to the Dingling Tomb."

"It should have been done this way, but it's a pity that Emperor Guangzong also passed away in less than a month at this time."

"In the ninth month of the 48th year of Wanli, the successor emperor of the Ming Dynasty was the later Xizong Emperor, Zhu Youxiao."

"He needed to face four funerals at this time."

"First, it was his grandfather's funeral, then his father's funeral, the funeral of his grandfather's original wife, Empress Xiaoduan, and his grandmother's tomb needed to be moved."

【Popularity】 +1+1+1+1.

——【Zhu Youxiao: The thing I regret most is moving my grandmother over; otherwise, she wouldn't have been dug out.】

——【No matter where you bury it, you can't keep it; the concubine tomb will also be robbed.】

——【The things inside were stolen very cleanly; the remains of the Wanli Emperor, Empress Xiaoduan, and Empress Xiaojing were directly thrown out and burned.】

——【Who burned them?】

——【I don't know who burned them, but I know it was Guo Ruo who dug them up.】

——【These are definitely the most miserable emperor and empress.】

——【One by one, they were doing good things...】

——【There are many emperors and empresses more miserable than them; look at the imperial tombs of the Song Dynasty, which one is not more miserable than them?】

——【Haha, the Song Dynasty is the softest dynasty.】

——【Empress Xiaojing would have been better off not moving there; now even her remains are gone...】

——【Zhu Youxiao was quite difficult.】

——【Yes, four people all at once; if you were doing a ritual, you would have to look carefully to see if something was wrong.】

——【Comparing them, I feel Zhu Youjian was much happier.】

——【Xuanzong was also very difficult.】

——【No one was as difficult as Zhu Youxiao.】

——【The Wanli Emperor wanted to be buried with Imperial Consort Zheng; they violated the wishes of the old emperor and the consort.】

——【Imperial Consort Zheng was a disaster; her son and grandson didn't get any benefits! The most pitiful was Empress Xiaojing, who was locked up before she died and not allowed to see her son; her eyes even went blind!】

——【The decline of a dynasty should never be blamed on a woman.】

The unearthed Three Dragons and Two Phoenixes Crown made the experts very happy, and even their gazes couldn't help but fix on it.

Especially after knowing from Fang Yang and the cameraman about the Nine Dragons and Nine Phoenixes Crown, they became even happier.

They couldn't help but start chatting, and they chatted quite a bit.

They suddenly chatted about Bai Xiaolu from the previous city.

"That Bai Xiaolu is quite... amazing, she can even restore artifacts."

The cameraman thought of this and felt very curious, so he brought up this matter.

"Oh, you mean Xiaobai? It's normal for her to know how to restore artifacts. Since you've been to her place, you must have seen her room full of artifacts, right?"

The experts here seemed to know Bai Xiaolu, and hearing the cameraman say this, they couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Those artifacts are temporarily kept there for safekeeping. No one dares to move them nearby; there are surveillance cameras there, and quite a few people are monitoring nearby."

Speaking of this, one of the experts couldn't help but let out a loud laugh.

The cameraman suddenly found that he understood what he hadn't figured out before.

That is to say, Bai Xiaolu's place was very safe, and there was no need to worry about any problems.

The cameraman scratched his cheek and decided not to think too much about this.

Anyway, in the time to come, it's very likely he won't meet Bai Xiaolu for the rest of his life.

Under these circumstances, arguing about this matter had no meaning at all.

After the cameraman said this, he didn't continue to talk, especially since he saw Fang Yang had already continued the excavation.

His gaze soon fell on Fang Yang, and a look of panic appeared on his face for a moment, then he ran quickly to Fang Yang's side.

Chatting with those experts, he almost forgot that Fang Yang still had work that needed him to look after.

Fortunately, it wasn't delayed for too long.

Thinking of this, a look of relief appeared involuntarily.

The cameraman's gaze was more focused now.

However, the more focused he was, the more he didn't notice some things.

When Fang Yang unearthed a new artifact, his brain was still a bit confused.

"Brother, did you dig something out again? It looks like a piece of cement stone."

Fang Yang shook his head: "This is not a cement stone, but a very important artifact."

When Fang Yang said this, his voice obviously showed a bit of hesitation.

If you say it's a stone, it actually counts.

Thinking of this, Fang Yang couldn't help but have some hesitation.

【Dingling Small Stone Tablet】

【...】

There were words carved on it, which were clear at a glance after cleaning.

'This stone is sixteen zhang from the front of the Vajra Wall, three zhang and five chi deep.'

"What ability do you think this small stone tablet has?"

"Is it deliberately placed here to confuse everyone, or is there another purpose?"

Fang Yang spoke slowly.

The person next to him, the cameraman, answered almost immediately: "Yeah, what is the purpose of this small stone tablet?"

386. Dingling Underground Palace, the emperor's epitaph? (Seeking full subscription)

Fang Yang looked at the small stone tablet and smiled: "Dingling was built in the 18th year of Wanli."

"Before, when introducing Empress Xiaojing and Empress Xiaoduan, I said that the Wanli Emperor passed away in the 48th year of Wanli."

"The span in between is as long as 30 years."

"In 30 years, the underground palace had already been built; you can't just leave the door open like that."

Speaking of this, Fang Yang seemed to think this was an even funnier thing, and chuckled a few times: "Do you have to wait until the emperor dies to walk into the underground palace yourself?"

"This kind of thing is definitely impossible, so in order to protect the feng shui of the underground palace from leaking, what can be done now is to build the underground palace and then backfill it with yellow soil."

"In this way, once the emperor passes away one day, officials from the Ministry of Rites will calculate an auspicious day, which is the good time for the emperor's burial."

"Then the Ministry of Rites will hand over the calculated time directly to the officials of the Ministry of Works."

"The Ministry of Works will open the Dingling underground palace in the first instance."

"This is to ensure that the emperor can be buried within this auspicious day."

"So the officials of the Ministry of Works at that time, in order to be able to open this underground palace conveniently later, specially left this small stone tablet as a guide for themselves."

"Actually, if people who know something about Dingling, and some of the explanations I made before, they will know that although the owner of Dingling, the Wanli Emperor, and Empress Xiaoduan and Empress Xiaojing did not pass away on the same day, they were buried on the same day."

"I just saw someone in the livestream asking, since people have already been buried, why leave this small stone tablet?"
