As for the artistic value of these treasures, it is incalculable and priceless. The coffin of Empress Dowager Cixi is the most precious in the world.

1June, 928, Sun Dianying, a warlord in Henan province, nicknamed Sun Ma, went straight for the Qing Dongling in the name of beating bandits. Engineers blasted the tomb, blasted the King Kong wall at the entrance of Empress Dowager Cixi downstairs, opened the passage to the underground palace, and knocked down the stone gate before entering the tomb.

At the bottom of Cixi's coffin, there is a brocade mattress woven with gold thread, which is seven inches thick. There are more than 0/0000 pearls, 85 rubies and more than 200 white jade.

There are countless large treasures around the body, such as Nine Linglong Pagoda, Jade Buddha, Jade Watermelon, Chinese Cabbage, Ruby, Emerald, Jade, Red Coral Tree, Moyu Mustard and so on. Their whereabouts are unknown. Empress Dowager Cixi's teeth were pried open, and the luminous pearl in her mouth was two transparent and dull pearls when separated, and a round pearl when closed, emitting green cold light. At night, people's heads within a hundred paces can be clearly seen.

There is a story in the vernacular of current affairs published in North China. When Sun Dianying opened the tomb of Cixi, he saw that the body was still lifelike. A soldier was clamoring and egging on by other soldiers to rape the body. Because this soldier is a handyman, that is, to clean up the body. It has become a habit for him to rape young women's bodies. As a result, the soldiers stripped off the body and looked around for a while. But after a while, the corpse and embroidered robe melted at the sight of the wind, and suddenly Cixi's face shrank into a skeleton state. The soldiers who wanted to rape the corpse were depressed and stopped raping the corpse.

After this grave robbery case was reported, it shocked the world, and people from all walks of life in various places condemned it by electricity, demanding that the murderer Sun Dianying be severely punished and the treasure be recovered. Chiang Kai-shek ordered Ding Yandong's underground palace Xishan to investigate and deal with the robbery case. Sun Dianying gave Dai Li the two largest scarlet beads in the dried dragon neck beads, and then asked Dai Li to give a Kowloon sword to Chiang Kai-shek, the leader of the National Government. Gave the emerald watermelon to Song Ziwen; Song Meiling got the pearl in Cixi's mouth, and Song Meiling decorated it with embroidered shoes. Since then, Sun Dianying has not only been at large, but also led troops to be an official, and he has been promoted step by step until he was promoted to commander-in-chief in advance; The arrested felon Tan Wenjiang was also released on bail and continued to be his teacher ... This abnormal phenomenon was a true portrayal of society at that time.

Nineteen years after Cixi's death, her "land of eternal happiness" was bombed by warlord Sun Dianying, which not only exposed her bones, but also suffered humiliation, and even the treasures buried with her were looted. The "Lafayette" who enjoyed the splendor of the world left only a lonely wasteland for future generations to comment on.
