First, Empress Dowager Cixi
Empress Dowager Cixi, formerly known as Ye Henala, was the concubine of Emperor Xianfeng and the biological mother of Emperor Tongzhi. 186 1 year, she had the courage to launch a coup and finally succeeded, and successfully implemented the policy of listening to politics. Twenty-three years later, she came to power by iron and blood. Such a woman shocked many ministers at that time. 1908, Empress Dowager Cixi made Puyi emperor. She became the Empress Dowager in just one day. 1June 908 1654381October15th, Empress Dowager Cixi passed away.
Second, the small treasury of Empress Dowager Cixi
People never know how much other people's private money is when they are alive. This sentence is embodied in Empress Dowager Cixi. After the death of Empress Dowager Cixi, her small coffers were exposed and valuable. She was the richest woman in China at that time, with countless jade jewels and even a night pearl, which was as high as 800 million at present value. That night, pearls were transported from India to Afghanistan, where they were presented to Qianlong as a tribute and finally fell into the hands of Empress Dowager Cixi. This night pearl also contains mystery. It is transparent when separated, but it will glow together. Finally, the tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi was accidentally targeted by Sun Dianying. Sun Dianying swept away all the funerary objects of Empress Dowager Cixi, including the pearl in the mouth of Empress Dowager Cixi. Finally, Sun Dianying gave all these to senior officials, making Sun Dianying's officials bigger and bigger.
Third, refuse to return goods.
At this time, the pearl can finally flow to Song Meiling's hand, and Song Meiling will take this pearl with him when attending activities, but because of taboo, Song Meiling finally used it on shoes. After Chiang Kai-shek's defeat, in order to raise military expenses, the Night Pearl was sold to Rockefeller, the then oil king. Therefore, many people think that this 800 million-yuan-worth luminous pearl is in the hands of Rockefeller's descendants, and it was placed in Rockefeller's private museum, so that China's priceless treasure finally went overseas. So someone tried to ask the Rockefeller family for China's cultural relics, but they were rejected. There are still many countries that refuse to return China's cultural relics to China. This kind of thing is not uncommon, so many rich people in China will auction back China's cultural relics at high prices at international auctions and donate them to the National Museum for free. For example, the gambling king spent hundreds of millions of yuan to auction off the rabbit heads and mouse heads of the China Zodiac animals, and then donated them to the China Museum for free, so that many cultural relics could return to China in this way.
