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

[Yang Lianzhenjia's excavation of the grave must have been tacitly approved by the Yuan Dynasty rulers.]

[Emperor Lizong of Song should thank the Eighth Prince.]

[It seems Zhao Gou was also exhumed?]

[The Song Dynasty artifacts were all excavated; the emperors and empresses of the Southern Song Dynasty were piled together and couldn't be distinguished, so they were buried together.]

[Anyway, there aren't many imperial tombs in history that haven't been excavated. Emperor Wu of Han definitely had his tomb excavated, many Tang imperial tombs were also excavated, and almost all of the Song imperial tombs were excavated.]

[Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Guangyi, and Zhao Heng were all unearthed, but Emperor Renzong was not.]

[Let me count for you: Wang Mang's head was chopped off and hasn't been buried in a long time; Gao Cheng was made into mincemeat; Yelü Deguang became preserved meat; Duke Jing of Jin drowned in a cesspool; Emperor Lizong of Song's skull was made into a wine bowl; Emperor Huizong of Song drowned and was made into lamp oil; Emperor Qinzong of Song was trampled into mincemeat by the Jurchen warhorses; Emperor Ming of Song died from overeating...]

[Emperor Huizong of Song either drowned or died from depression; however, legend has it that the Jurchens used his corpse to fuel lamps.]

[Emperor Qinzong of Song was summoned by the Jurchens to play polo. He was neither skilled nor good at it, and suffering from a severe rheumatism, he was physically weak and quickly fell from his horse, where he was trampled to death.]

The heavenly curtain had also mentioned how absurd and weak Emperors Qinzong and Huizong were, but seeing them like this now evokes a sense of shared sorrow.

If even they are like this, what about the many ordinary people?

Aren't they even more like beings whom the Jurchens could manipulate at will?

Hearing that Emperor Aizong's remains were enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, I wasn't too happy, because so much blood debt and so much bloodshed couldn't be erased by just a set of remains.

Emperor Huizong, already filled with anxiety under the heavens, went mad upon hearing of the widespread public discontent and the people fleeing in all directions.

When Emperor Qinzong of Song, who had just ascended the throne, heard that the Jurchens were about to invade and that he would be imprisoned and trampled by horses, he would rather be a piece of mud that no one cared about and barely survive.

Now they're going crazy.

Several figures walked in, holding white silk ribbons, which frightened him so much that he ran away in all directions.

"May Your Majesty rest in peace!"

"No, I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"

But no matter how much he struggled, the white ribbon around his neck was tightened little by little.

When Zhao Kuangyin saw that his tomb had also been dug up, his previously furious expression turned completely cold and sinister.

Relying on your descendants... is not as good as relying on yourself.

Zhao Jiong was already ill, and now his vision went completely black. The sight of Emperors Huizong and Qinzong, as well as Zhao Gou, made him feel like he couldn't breathe. Now, hearing that even his own grave had been dug up, he was utterly despondent.

He rekindled his desire to reclaim the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun, but the thought of fleeing in a donkey cart during past battles filled Zhao Jiong with dread. He decided to leave such matters to his descendants.

Zhao Heng: The country is still far from being destroyed. Let's leave it to our descendants first. Right now, the most important thing for me is to perform the Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai.

Zhao Zhen was very anxious, but he knew that he couldn't rush things. Everything had to be done step by step. He had just discussed with his ministers where to start making changes.

A thousand and one things to do... The fall of the nation is imminent!

The subsequent Song Dynasty emperors were all bewildered. When asked what they could do, those with a bit of ambition wanted to make changes, while those without ambition still wanted to continue playing music and dancing, and to cultivate a powerful descendant, just like that European empress in the sky, and to learn more about politics and the military.

The Song Dynasty emperors and scholars had a natural aversion and wariness towards the military. What if a prince were to take control of the army?

This is yet another scene worth discussing.

"Actually, we did find a few tombs of high-ranking officials and nobles from the Yuan Dynasty, but none of them are the imperial tombs we are most interested in. The imperial tombs of the Yuan Dynasty are too mysterious. Perhaps with the development of technology, even more powerful scanners will be invented to scan the underground situation," Zhu Qinggu said.

"Perhaps one day we will be able to unveil the mystery of the Yuan Dynasty imperial tombs."

Yuan Dynasty Emperor: Please don't reveal it! We don't want to be disturbed.

The other ancient people under the sky swallowed hard, while those who hadn't been dug out were starting to panic.

Those that have already been dug out are already out, so they're like dead pigs that aren't afraid of boiling water. But those that haven't been dug out are living in constant fear.

The person who was dug out was grinning distortedly.

"Second brother, who knows when they'll poach your talent?" Zhu Wang patted Zhu Shuang on the shoulder. "And fourth brother, you too."

Previously, Zhu Qinggu briefly mentioned some of the tombs of Ming Dynasty princes.

It was also mentioned that Zhu Wang's tomb was severely looted during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty and was later severely damaged, so Zhu Wang still harbored deep resentment.

But now he is happy.

He vaguely sensed the pulse of future generations. Once all these tombs were excavated and there were no more tombs to dig, wouldn't the next batch of leaky and drafty tombs appear?

Later generations: Zhu Wang, you still know too much!

However, Zhu Wang was too presumptuous. The tombs in this area were not so easily excavated. It is still unknown how many tombs there are from the Late Paleolithic period to the present.

There are shipwrecks and ruins...

Now Zhu Di looked at Zhu Shuang and tilted his head, "Second brother, beat him up!"

So this time it was Zhu Wang's turn to get beaten up.

Qing Dynasty Emperor: No matter how you look at it, none of us are as miserable as they are!

The Qing emperors became jealous of the Ming emperors.

The Song Dynasty emperors became jealous of the Ming Dynasty emperors.

……

Zhu Qinggu then wrote "Three, Yuan Dynasty Imperial Tombs" on the blackboard, followed by "Four".

"There's not much to say about the Song Dynasty imperial tombs. Both the remains and the burial goods inside were looted. Most of the tombs that were severely looted have become empty graves and wastelands."

"The lower palace of the Song Dynasty tombs was filled with a large number of gold, silver and jade artifacts, as well as calligraphy and paintings by literati. It was the initial target of the Jurchens. After looting the lower palace, the Jurchens shifted their focus to the upper palace, which is the underground palace of the tomb."

“The Song Dynasty tombs are easy to excavate, even though they are located deep in the plains. The loess soil is soft, so small tombs can be opened directly from the top. Large tombs are a bit more complicated, but you can just dig a hole from the side slope of the mausoleum, pry open the stones, and lower a rope down to reach the underground palace.”

"Moreover, the tombs of the Song Dynasty were all of the same size and structure. Once one was opened, the others could be opened in the same way, which is why the Song Dynasty tombs were looted so badly."

"When the Southern Song Dynasty was confronting the Jin Dynasty, Southern Song officials went back to pay their respects at the Song imperial tombs and found that the emperor's remains were outside. So they cried and took off their official robes to cover the remains and hastily buried them."

When Zhao Gou learned of this, he wept bitterly and sent Yue Fei north to resist the Jin and repair the imperial mausoleum.

"If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected is about to happen."
