After broadcasting the ancient times live, I handed the system over to the state.

Zhu Qinggu wrote a 'one' on the blackboard and then wrote 'Qing Imperial Mausoleum' next to it.

"Some people say that the serious water seepage in the Eastern Qing Tombs is because the underground palace is too shallow. The deepest tomb in the Qianlong Emperor's Yuling is only 17 meters deep, while the deepest tomb in the Wanli Emperor's Dingling is 27 meters deep, and the deepest tomb in the Changling is 41 meters deep."

"Actually, it's caused by a variety of reasons, not just because it's shallow, but also because there's groundwater in that area."

[Aren't they the Later Jin? Jin generates water!]

[That's quite clever.]

[Emperor Daoguang didn't go to the Eastern Tombs with his grandfather because the water seepage there was too severe, so he went to the Western Tombs with his father instead.]

[When Emperor Yongzheng was planning to build his mausoleum, it was his thirteenth son who discovered severe water seepage at the Eastern Mausoleum and suggested moving to the Western Mausoleum. The Eastern Mausoleum was chosen by Emperor Shunzhi.]

[It's said, and I don't know if it's true, that after Emperor Guangxu was executed, people who examined his remains said that Emperor Shunzhi had been poisoned.]

[Emperor Kangxi was probably a diver his whole life.]

[Emperor Qianlong: My grandfather was the Qing Dynasty's number one Baturu (diver), and I want to become the Qing Dynasty's number one Baturu (diver) in the future.]

[He laughed.]

[The tombs of Emperor Xianfeng and Emperor Tongzhi also suffered from severe water seepage; even Wang Shaoyi had to remove the plaques at the entrance and row in by boat to get inside.]

Qing Dynasty Emperor: Enough, enough! Stop talking! We'll change the mausoleum site immediately!

Emperor Kangxi was truly exasperated. What could be worse than being robbed and submerged in water? Could it be because of these troublesome sons?

"Fourth Prince, you!" Kangxi finally woke up and turned his head to see the fourth prince's unapproachable face, which gave him a headache.

Fourth Prince: "?"

"Fourth Prince, that's not very kind of you. Why don't you repair Father's underground palace?" The other princes seized the opportunity to start spitting on him.

"..." Yinzhen's face was cold. Anyway, he had already laid his cards on the table. "What does what Yongzheng did have to do with me, Aisin Gioro Yinzhen? Besides, we know now, and Father isn't soaking in the water."

The princes: "..." As expected, the fourth prince has the guts!

Anyway, Yinzhen has completely given up. Tianmu has exposed all his secrets. What's the point of hiding his true colors and biding his time?

Emperor Yongzheng was in a terrible predicament, and Emperor Qianlong, who was behind him, was also filled with grief and indignation, his head throbbing as if it were about to explode. "Change it! I also want to be buried with the late emperor in the Western Tombs, and that rebellious son Yongyan too! I should have strangled him...!"

Emperor Qianlong thought that burying him in the Western Tombs would prevent his tomb from being flooded or robbed, but given his extravagant and indulgent nature, he would surely fill his underground palace with many fine things.

You'll get robbed no matter where you go.

But Zhu Qinggu's lashing out at them was not over yet. "We all know that it takes a long time for a tree to grow into a towering tree, especially for rare trees like Phoebe zhennan, which grows even more slowly."

“As early as the Ming Dynasty, the resources of Phoebe zhennan wood were already becoming increasingly scarce.”

"It could be used to build palaces, or underground palaces, to make furniture, small trinkets, and so on."

"When the Qing Dynasty came, the emperor thought, 'I want it too, but I don't have it. So what can I do?' He set his sights on the golden nanmu wood of the previous dynasties."

Spicy meatballs!!!

The Ming emperors thought they had escaped a calamity. Didn't Miss Zhu say that their mausoleums, except for Wanli's Dingling, were basically intact?

Wait a minute? Basic? ? ? !

In other words, there will still be some damage?

Do those damned wild boars really dare to dig up their graves and steal the precious Phoebe zhennan wood?

The Ming emperors, who were initially relaxed and even enjoying themselves, suddenly became tense, except for Wanli who was crying to Zhang Juzheng about his misfortune.

They were terrified that some wild boar skin from the Qing Dynasty might be used to steal pillars from their own mausoleum!

People from other dynasties were relaxed, but they didn't expect Zhu Qinggu to launch a surprise attack! Will they launch a surprise attack when discussing their tombs in the future?

When they relax, give them a good slap!

That was absolutely terrifying!

Miss Zhu, can't you just say it all at once, all at once, all at once, all at once?

Zhu Qinggu looked at the barrage of comments that suddenly filled the screen and smiled with satisfaction.

For some reason, Emperor Qianlong sneezed.

"That's right, it was Emperor Qianlong. He also wanted to use Phoebe zhennan wood to build his underground palace, but the people in charge couldn't find such good and thick Phoebe zhennan wood. So Qianlong had no choice but to set his sights on the Phoebe zhennan wood of Zhu Di's mausoleum."

In the Hongwu era, Zhu Di exclaimed, "!"

In the Yongle era, Zhu Di: "...What? Say that again?"

"However, in the end, Qianlong did not choose to take the golden nanmu wood from Zhu Di's mausoleum, but instead went to take the Jiajing mausoleum instead," Zhu Qinggu said. "This even led to the Yongling Mausoleum becoming a shoddy mess and collapsing more than a hundred years later."

It turned out it wasn't his; Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief, but it belonged to his descendants!

That's infuriating enough!

Did Zhu Di not know how much Phoebe zhennan wood he used to build his palaces and imperial tombs?

That's incredibly extravagant.

Jiajing: ?!

For Jiajing, the sky had fallen. He had been diligently cultivating immortality and had placed many things in his mausoleum to ensure that he would attain immortality after his death. Now, you're saying that the pillars of his mausoleum will be stolen by the Qing emperors.

Both Kangxi and Yongzheng felt somewhat embarrassed, especially since the Qing emperors already had a poor reputation.

But then Zhu Qinggu took a sudden turn, saying, "Actually, what I said above is all unofficial history. Think about it, how could Qianlong, with his temperament and personality, possibly steal something that someone else had used? Not even something used by a Ming Dynasty emperor!"

Kangxi and Yongzheng breathed a sigh of relief, remarking that Qianlong wasn't so shameless after all; otherwise, they would have lost all face for the Qing Dynasty and disgraced themselves in front of their predecessors and successors.

The Ming emperor felt a sense of relief, but also a touch of regret, for reasons he didn't know.

People like Ying Zheng know why; weren't the remnants of the six former states the same?

They were unwilling to submit to the king's rule and even wanted to rebel and return, so naturally they couldn't help but hope for his death. Aren't the rumors that kept popping up also their doing?

The Qing Dynasty was not the legitimate successor of the Chinese dynasty, and it changed the clothing and customs that had been used for thousands of years. It is easy to imagine that it used iron-fisted methods. Even after hundreds of years, people will still remember the enmity of several generations.

Furthermore, the late Qing Dynasty even allowed foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes to invade, resulting in the loss of national sovereignty and humiliation. Its reputation plummeted, and no amount of slander from later generations could be too much.

For Ying Zheng, it was crucial to learn enough experience and lessons from later generations, as well as to acquire technological strengths such as papermaking and salt production.

unless……

Ying Zheng can't imagine what the future will be like. He can only try to seize power again amidst the surging tide, just like he did back then.

And the Han people...

How will we know that there was no Qin clan in the future, and that people in the future will be proud to be Qin people?
