Guangxu's body rotted. What's he holding in his hand?
Emperor Guangxu holds Hetian jade and jade ring in his hand. In fact, the value of these two items is also great, but because the power of Emperor Guangxu was too great at that time, grave robbers did not take these two cultural relics away. Emperor Guangxu was the puppet of Empress Dowager Cixi at that time, and his life was miserable, because he was the head of a country, but he had no real power in his hands. Emperor Guangxu died at 38. Because craftsmen were not allowed to build their own tombs when he was alive, with the unexpected death, Empress Dowager Cixi simply built a mausoleum for him. You know, because the construction period is very tight, the mausoleum of Emperor Guangxu is far less than that of several other emperors in the Qing Dynasty. Coupled with the craftsmen who cut corners at that time, the quality of the entire Guangxu emperor's mausoleum was greatly reduced.

In the 1980s, archaeologists prepared to excavate the mausoleum of Emperor Guangxu. But when they came to the scene, they found that the grave had been visited by grave robbers. The specific time was when Japan launched the war of aggression against China. Emperor Guangxu's mausoleum is in Hebei, and there are many local bandits. At that time, no one cared too much about the imperial tombs, so these bandits first turned their attention to these imperial tombs. When these grave robbers entered Guangxu Mausoleum, they found many rare treasures. You know, every one of these funerary objects of the monarch is valuable, so these grave robbers took all the funerary objects at once. Even at that time, these grave robbers opened the coffin of Emperor Guangxu. Archaeologists were disheartened when they saw the stolen tomb of Emperor Guangxu, but when they opened the coffin of Emperor Guangxu, they found that Emperor Guangxu still held Hetian jade and Yuhuan in his hand. These two items are of high value. Because Emperor Guangxu kept it well at that time, it was not taken away by grave robbers. What is even more surprising when using these sticks is that there is a well behind Guangxu's coffin, which is full of gold, silver and jewels. The grave robbers were so careless that they missed the well.
