Empress Dowager Cixi is a famous "luxury" Empress Dowager Cixi in history. She likes pearls, agates, precious stones, jade articles and gold and silver vessels. Before Empress Dowager Cixi entered the coffin, she laid a layer of gold wire and inlaid jewels at the bottom of the coffin, about seven inches thick. The mattress is covered with a layer of embroidered silk, the mattress is covered with a layer of beads, and the beads are covered with a thin mattress embroidered with beads. Put a green lotus leaf at one end and a tourmaline lotus flower at the foot. Put it away before you bring the queen mother in. The hind two feet climbed on the lotus, wearing lotus leaves, colorful embroidered robes, gold beads, embroidered beads on the outer cover, nine beads wrapped around the back, and eighteen mussels on the back arm. The above treasures are personal filial piety and are not listed. After everyone left, the Tarot Sutra was covered behind them. Wearing a pearl crown on the back, there are 108 golden Buddha, jade Buddha and jade Buddha beside it. A watermelon, two melons, 200 peaches, plums, apricots and other treasures are placed around the hind feet. Put a jade lotus root on the left side of the back with lotus leaves and lotus flowers on it; A coral tree is on your right. Scatter beads and things like that on the empty place, and then cover it with a net. Just as he was about to put the lid on, big princess came. After that, open the bead net, take out one piece of Jade Eight Horses and one piece of Jade Eighteen Arhats from the box, put them next to the back hand, and cover them. At this point, the ceremony is over. Among them, only the jade watermelons at the feet of Empress Dowager Cixi reached 2.22 million, while other objects, such as the big beads on the bead crown, were more expensive ... That's not all. It is conceivable that when so many treasures are added together, or some people know that there are so many treasures buried underground and want to steal them, how frightened they will be! The treasure buried in the coffin after death is worth as much as 120 million silver. Li is the most trusted eunuch of Empress Dowager Cixi. He is a participant in the treasure buried in the coffin. Ai Xuanyue's notes, written by him and his nephew, recorded the types, quantities and position values of funerary objects in detail. The bottom of Cixi's coffin was covered with a gold-woven mattress, which was 7 inches thick. There are 12604 pearls, 85 rubies and 203 white jade below. The brocade mattress is covered with a silk mattress embroidered with lotus flowers, which is covered with 2400 5-cent pearls. Cixi was covered with a Toni quilt made of gold. It is made of bright yellow satin with a length of 280 cm and a width of 274 cm and twisted with gold. The quilt not only has various patterns, but also weaves 25,000 Chinese characters of Dalagni scriptures. The quilt is decorated with 820 pearls. The grave robbers took the pearls and left this priceless Buddhist sutra on the ground. 1979 it was discovered when the underground palace was cleaned, and it was only then that the danger was saved. Covering the quilt with a tennis quilt decorated with 6000 pearls is also a treasure handed down from generation to generation. Cixi wears a phoenix crown, which is inlaid with pearls and precious stones. There is a pearl in the crown, which weighs four times as much as an egg. At that time, it was worth about 1 1,000-2,000,000 taels of silver, and its rockhopper value can be imagined. Mouth contains a night pearl, divided into two pieces, transparent and dull; When it is closed, it is a ball, which can show green light and can see hair within a hundred steps at night. Experts estimate that it may be two diamonds. After Dongling was excavated by a tomb-robbing general, the night pearl was given to Song Meiling by Sun Dianying to escape the guilt. Cixi hung three beads around her neck, two pearls and one ruby. She is wearing a golden silk dress with a robe embroidered with beads. Pedal boots. Holding a Yu Lian in his hand, there is a 18 mussel Buddha in front of his head, and a Yu Lian leaf on his head, full of veins stood out. Weighing 225 yuan and 40 cents, it was worth 2.852 million taels of silver at that time. There are 10 golden Buddha and 8 jade carved horses on both sides of the head, and there are 18 jade arhats on hand. There are 108 statues of golden Buddha, jade Buddha, ruby Buddha and jade Buddha beside him or at his feet, and every respect is 6 Liang; Four jadeite watermelons, two white-skinned yellow seeds and two green-skinned white seeds, worth six million and two thousand silver; The tip of the green peach with 10 is pink, so it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity. There are two emerald cabbages with green leaves and white hearts. There is a green snake foraging on the cabbage, and there are two classic wasps beside the cabbage leaves. The pretty color is just right, unique and rare, and it is valued at 654.38+million silver. The most precious thing in the coffin is the Nine Linglong Pagoda carved by white jade, with patterns of flowers and flowing smoke on it. There are more than 700 gems, jade, red coral trees and jet mustard beside his body. Some jade materials come from Xinjiang, such as suet jade and jet, which are not available in Hotan. When I buried the treasure, I found a hole in the coffin, and I poured four liters of pearls (500 8-point pearls, 2,200 3-point pearls, 1000 2-point pearls). There are 2200 sapphires and emeralds. These empty pearls alone are worth 2.23 million taels of silver. These are part of the coffin funerary objects. From the completion of the tomb of Cixi in Dongling in 1879 to the final closure of the underground palace, various rare treasures and more than 1000 pieces of golden jade offerings have been placed in the underground palace for 30 years. I don't know where these priceless treasures have gone since Sun Dianying stole the tombs of two queens. A piece of jade weighing several tons in Xinjiang was sent to Kuqa county as a bed for placing coffins in the underground palace, which was put on hold for some reason.
