When Tang Sancheng heard this, he waved his hand suddenly: "Stop talking, let me guess, the princess in the coffin is not alive, right?"
"Dead." Qixie said briefly, "It just looks like a living person."
Yes, Bai Yi put his hand on the imperial concubine's face and pressed it down unceremoniously. He only felt that the flesh was stiff. This was definitely not the face of a living person. Then he heaved a sigh of relief. If he was lying in this coffin,
It was really a ghost to see a living person. Bai Yi took a fancy to the flower hairpin on the princess's head, and reached out to pull it out. After pulling out the flower hairpin, he put it in his bag. He didn't know if the reason why the body was not rotten was
The reason behind the white marble coffin remains unsolved for the time being. Bai Yi did not want to spend too much time on it and immediately closed the coffin lid.
In the past, Bai Yi did not have such patience. He rarely closed the coffin lid after opening it, but this female corpse was so bizarre that he simply ignored it.
There is no doubt that this is either the left hall or the right hall. Tang Sancheng is not here. Bai Yi and Qixie discussed it and decided to go to the back hall. The back hall is the highlight of the imperial mausoleum. According to the map in hand, the back hall and the front hall are different.
The hall was connected to each other, so the two of them accidentally bumped into the front hall. Just in time to see Tang Sancheng's hand touching the wall, Bai Yi thought of the powder on the stone wall under the well and immediately screamed, which was completely subconscious.
"Did your arrival go smoothly?" Tang Sancheng asked.
"It's a narrow escape." Bai Yi sighed: "You must not pass through the obvious door. There may be a bottomless trap below. Just remember this."
"Like this?" Tang Sancheng pointed to the door of the front hall and threw a stone over it. Bai Yi said angrily: "It's the same. Fortunately we are smart, otherwise we would have lost our troops. Tang Sancheng, what about you, what happened
What happened?"
Tang Sancheng told his story, which made the two of them very nervous. Regarding the inference of the silver mask, Bai Yi also agreed. Lei Zi was in the middle hall, and now only Lao Fan was left unknown. Tang Sancheng
Said: "This track points to this wall. I'm wondering if the apse is behind this wall? The map shows that the front and back halls are connected."
"But with such an obvious mark, could it be a scam?" Bai Yi was really frightened now.
Qixie suddenly said: "Could the designer also take advantage of the mentality of the inverter?"
Suspicion is what they are in now. Bai Yi is really fed up with this situation: "No matter what, let's give it a try."
Bai Yi finished saying: "If I don't die in the future, I will be a monster, so let me do it." As soon as he finished speaking, before Tang Sancheng had time to stop him, Bai Yi walked towards the wall, pushed against the wall with both hands and started to yell.
With force, there was a "squeak" sound, and the wall moved away. This time the instructions were correct! After the wall was moved away, Tang Sancheng saw the white marble stone door Bai Yi said, and it was "self-made stone" again. Bai Yi could not help but
Without repeating what was just done, he pulled the tapstone out of the ground trough and opened the door. This took about half an hour and made Bai Yi sweat profusely.
The door finally opened, and the three of them walked in. They saw that the indoor floor was paved with polished square patterned stone slabs, and there was a coffin bed in the center. The coffin here was placed on the coffin bed, and the coffin bed was made of stone.
, has the same pattern as the stone slabs laid on the ground, but is surrounded by white marble edges. There is a square hole in the center of the coffin bed, which is also stuffed with loess.
Tang Sancheng said to himself: "Golden Well."
There is loess stuffed in the square hole, which is called a gold well in terms of Feng Shui. In the custom of tomb burial, there is a process called opening the gold well. In the traditional tomb burial folk custom, the cemetery is first selected, which is to search for the dragon.
After digging the hole and choosing the location for the tomb, it is time to build the tomb. One of the very important steps is to open the gold well. The so-called gold well is to build the coffin bed and dig out the excess material on the coffin bed in order to place the coffin.
Put the soil, sand and gravel into the coffin bed. Usually, you make a hole in the coffin bed, put the soil, sand and gravel into it, and then place the coffin on the coffin bed.
"This should be the emperor's tomb." After all the effort to get here, Bai Yi was gearing up: "Let me see if he is the emperor!"
"If it is possible that it is Emperor Jiajing, the inscription on the porcelain jar with the everlasting lantern is Jiajing." Tang Sancheng said.
Qixie and Bai Yi opened the lid of the white marble coffin in the same way as the imperial concubine's tomb. The person lying inside was the same as the imperial concubine just now. Her body was not corrupt, and she was dressed in yellow silk with dragon embroidery on it.
The Zhai pattern and the twelve chapter patterns were the common clothes of the Ming Dynasty emperor. There was no doubt that this person was the emperor. Tang Sancheng's sharp eyes saw that there was a jade bottle placed next to the emperor, which looked like a small medicine bottle.
, Tang Sancheng was quick and picked it up with one hand: "What's in this? It can't be a bar?"
While talking, Tang Sancheng had already pulled out the cork of the bottle. He smelled it first, shook it and there was a clanking sound inside, as if it contained liquid. Tang Sancheng poured a drop of it out, not daring to pour it on his hand.
The drop of liquid fell on the old emperor's lips, and instantly entered the old emperor's mouth, disappearing without a trace. Tang Sancheng didn't even see clearly what color the liquid was!
Tang Sancheng put the jade bottle into Bai Yi's hand: "Bai Yi, come and see what's in this. It doesn't smell like alcohol. It doesn't look like wine."
Bai Yi took it in his hand and only smelled a strong medicinal smell. He was not sure what was in it. However, Qixie took it and smelled it and found something: "It contains at least polygonum multiflorum, wild ginseng and Tai Sui."
There are three things, and I can’t smell the others.”
"This emperor is really strange. He is dead and yet he puts a bottle of medicine next to his head. But, is this medicine the reason why his body is incorruptible?"
This is possible. Bai Yi put the bottle of medicine into his pocket and focused on the four boxes in front of the coffin. Although there were not many boxes, these four boxes were one meter high. When the boxes were opened,
, one box is full of jade dragons, jade phoenixes, jade belts, jade pendants and other jade ornaments, the other box is full of gold and silver ingots, and the third box is full of the emperor's and queen's clothing and fabrics, especially
Crown, the emperor in the coffin already wore a crown on his head, and here is another crown. The hat part of the crown is round, covered with black gauze on the outside and lined with red silk. The hat is "collar", which is made of paulownia wood board.
The top is black and the bottom is red, with a round front and a round back. The front and back of the 疖 are decorated with twelve strings, that is, five-color silk ropes are used on the front and back, and 12 strings of beads of various colors are strung in the order of vermilion, white, blue, yellow and black. The crown.
Red silk ropes are used to hang jade ornaments (also called ears) on both sides. There are twelve zodiac signs in front of the eyes, and jade ornaments are hanging on the ears, which means "don't see if it's inappropriate, don't listen if it's inappropriate".
There is also a winged crown. This winged crown is entirely made of gold and is woven from countless gold wires. The patterns are well-proportioned, exquisite and clear, like wings and yarn. The production uses filigree, silk base, and code.
Various craftsmanship, such as wire, are so detailed that the scales on the dragon's body are all twisted from gold wire. The welding process is done at just the right temperature, without any trace of welding, and the manufacturing level is at its peak, so perfect that it is breathtaking.
