"This has to be said about the attitude of ancient people when doing things."

"Everything must have a backup plan; don't do things too absolutely."

"In case the one who takes the throne later says open it for me again, I still have to bury someone here..."

"The same craftsmen have to face this problem."

"So the craftsmen, in order to be convenient when working, specially left this small stone tablet."

——【It's equivalent to an epitaph!】

——【An epitaph is not for pointing the way.】

——【If you don't understand, don't pretend to be a scholar. An epitaph records the life deeds of the tomb owner. Emperors generally don't have epitaphs, but 'meritorious and virtuous tablets'.】

——【I think it should have been that the auspicious day wasn't calculated well, and it was dug up by others later.】

——【It's truly pitiful; it was actually dragged out and burned.】

——【Why are some people always talking about burning or not? If you don't burn it, are you going to take it out for exhibition?】

——【I read some materials before, saying that Wanli even invited ministers to eat in this underground palace while he was alive.】

——【Don't understand, just ask. Why are the characters on this stone tablet all simplified characters? Was it popular to use simplified characters in the Ming Dynasty?】

——【It's traditional characters; you can look at the 'wall' character.】

——【Are you sure that 'wall' character is traditional?】

——【My eyes are not blind; the characters on the stone tablet are all simplified.】

——【It's not the Ministry of Rites officials; it should be the Astronomical Bureau.】

——【Didn't you say that if he doesn't pass away, it can't be completed?】

——【It's not needed, but it still takes many years.】

——【Thinking of Wu Zetian, she also opened Tang Gaozong Li Zhi's tomb to bury herself when she passed away.】

——【I estimate Changling will also have this small stone tablet pointing the way.】

——【I estimate not, because his concubines were all buried with him.】

——【Saying it like this is just putting on a very suitable logic. There is a possibility that it was a marked location during design. This was repaired for decades, and many marks were made in the key planning. The people who built this project didn't need to consider the problem of being robbed at all.】

——【This so-called guide tablet feels meaningless. It's not far from the underground palace; if you dig a little more, you will reach the underground palace. And the Ministry of Works finished the work, just remember the reference of the landmark buildings around the underground palace. Personally, I think this guide tablet should have another meaning.】

The era is long ago, and everything said now is just speculation.

Wanting to perfectly understand what the situation was like at that time from the limited information now is almost impossible.

After all, even if ancient people recorded it in history books, they wouldn't record this mere small stone tablet.

Fang Yang didn't mean to continue introducing it. He looked left and right, and with the consent of others, he walked toward the direction of Dingling.

The cameraman looked twice more, then continued to chase toward the direction of Dingling.

387. Unstealable treasure! Forbidden City feng shui pattern! (Seeking full subscription)

It's really cold under this underground palace; the cold wind is blowing on the body.

There are quite a few experts working inside.

Clearly, their arrival should be known to someone.

When they saw a camera and Fang Yang, it was almost clear at a glance.

One of them walked over at this moment: "Fang Yang, right?"

After all, this is someone else's territory, so when the other party walked over to greet him specially, Fang Yang nodded and said in a very friendly tone: "That's right, I am Fang Yang."

"When everyone said they wanted to invite you over before, I was very supportive. I have admired you very much since I saw you participate in the show, and I hope we can cooperate friendly in the future."

As he spoke, the other party reached out his hand.

Fang Yang didn't refuse and shook hands with him directly.

It was very cold under the underground palace.

Fang Yang and the cameraman were wearing thin clothes, and after walking for a while, they felt a bit cold from their feet to their heads.

The underground palace consists of 5 parts.

Front Hall, Middle Hall, Right Side Hall, Left Side Hall, and Rear Hall.

And the man who was greeting Fang Yang gave him a simple introduction at this time: "My name is Lu Gong."

"When we unearthed this underground palace, the artifacts inside had actually been stolen almost completely. If it weren't for the suspicious appearance of those college students, we might not have known that there was an underground palace here."

Lu Gong shook his head helplessly when he said this.

"Although some things were stolen, this underground palace itself is a treasure, and it is also something that others cannot steal no matter how they steal it."

When Fang Yang said this, he even smiled at the other party.

Lu Gong couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard Fang Yang say this.

"You are right, it is indeed like this. Although we have losses, these losses will eventually be made up. The artifacts we have left now are enough for us to understand more about the history of the Ming Dynasty."

"Fang Yang, what is your opinion on this palace?"

Lu Gong accompanied Fang Yang to stroll around the palace and couldn't help but ask.

Seeing Fang Yang fix his gaze on him, he smiled embarrassedly: "I heard from others, and I have also seen it myself, so you really know a lot about many things. Right, I want to see what your opinion on this palace is?"

What kind of opinion?

His opinion didn't seem that important.

Although the other party said this to him, Fang Yang didn't intend to intervene in this matter.

His expression was faint.

"My opinion is not that important, and what is going on with this palace, and what is the significance behind it? I believe that with the ability of your experts, you will understand sooner or later."

The main reason Fang Yang entered this underground palace was that he wanted to see what had not been excavated yet.

He could feel that there were still things inside that had not seen the light of day and had not been discovered by anyone.

If it weren't for this reason, he wouldn't have stepped in.

Fang Yang knew very well what he was doing now, so when he was doing this, he didn't want to be affected by other things.

"Fang Yang, just tell me." The man saw that Fang Yang had no intention of explaining at all. At this time, his gaze fell on the livestream room, and he saw many bullet comments, then he smiled: "Look, the people in your livestream also want to know about this."

What Lu Gong said was right; many people in the livestream were indeed very interested in this Dingling.

Up to now, no one had any way to enter this underground palace, and they were naturally full of curiosity about this underground palace.

"This is a palace, and it is likely built in the form of a nine-fold palace."

"It actually corresponds to the Forbidden City."

"Look, the front, middle, and rear halls in the middle should correspond to the Qianqing, Jiaotai, and Kunning Palaces."

"The side halls on the left and right correspond to the East and West Six Palaces of the Forbidden City."

What Fang Yang said made Lu Gong's eyes light up: "The explanations you made are very reasonable. Why didn't I think of this explanation before?"

He said this as if he had suddenly realized, or as if he had suddenly remembered something else: "Fang Yang, you and this cameraman can stroll around inside; no one will stop you. I have other things to do now, so I will leave temporarily."

Although Lu Gong looked very young, his status here should not be low, because just after Lu Gong finished these words, even if others cast curious gazes at him, they didn't get close to him, which was very convenient for Fang Yang to act freely here.

No one disturbed him, which was the best thing for Fang Yang.

388. There are empresses, how could the emperor not have a hat? (Seeking full subscription)

Accompanied by the cameraman, he went to every place, and then he stopped.

So strange.

Suddenly, Fang Yang felt a bit puzzled.

It stands to reason that an emperor and two empresses are buried here.

Although the remains have been burned, but, what about the coffins?

Why isn't there even a coffin?

Because he felt this was truly a very strange thing, Fang Yang called the nearest expert over directly.

"When you were excavating this Dingling, didn't you see any coffins?"

"There are some wood residues inside, but we didn't see any coffins when we came in at that time."

In fact, this was also a thing that these people were very puzzled about, but they still had many things to do, and they couldn't keep thinking about where the missing coffins went.

Maybe they were thrown out by grave robbers.

Maybe they were used for some other purpose.

In short, there were all kinds of possibilities.
