The tomb of Xiao Taihou in Northeast China was ransacked by grave robbers, and the shroud worth 3.4 billion yuan was left untouched. This statement is untrue.
Xiao Taihou was a woman with infinite scenery. Although ancient times was a patriarchal society, the status of women was always very low, but Xiao Taihou mastered the supreme power and glory. Although she didn't succeed in sitting on the throne of the emperor like Wu Zetian, at that time, all the affairs of Liao country were decided by Xiao Taihou, and all courtiers in Liao country knew that the emperor was just a white puppet, and it was Xiao Taihou who really held the real power.
After Xiao Taihou's death, he was buried with Liao Emperor Jing Zong in Ganling. There are a lot of gold, silver and jewels buried in the mausoleum, and the scope of the imperial tomb in Liao Dynasty is very broad. After that, it was repeatedly destroyed by war and excavated manually. On the eve of Japan's full-scale invasion of China, the tombs of Liao emperors were looted. Later, the famous grave robbery group looted all the graves in this place by casting nets.
Later, Xiao Taihou's shroud began to appear in the market, and it was sold at a high price of 3.4 billion yuan, which was 1 100 million yuan higher than that of Jinyu clothes. As a result, the 3.4 billion yuan shroud was not stolen, but was hidden after being stolen and did not circulate in the market. It didn't appear in the market until the 1990s, and it was auctioned at such a high price. It is impossible for no one to steal such an expensive shroud.
