Chapter 201: The First Hearing of the Emperor's Decree
Guo Fatzi glanced at Mrs. Sun, he knew that if he didn't say it, Mrs. Sun would also say it, and immediately said: "I heard that the treasures of the Emperor's Tomb appeared in Linxiang City." β
"Imperial Tomb?" Yang Kang was still a little confused.
"Eldest grandson, you come in with me!" Mrs. Sun pulled him over and walked inside.
"Hey, you damned old woman, what are you going to do?" Guo Fatzi was immediately anxious.
"Dead fatty, you're waiting outside!" Mrs. Sun didn't have a good impression of Guo Fatzi at all, so she pulled Yang Kang in, and then closed the door casually, and closed the latch with the door. Then she pulled Yang Kang directly to the inner room, lay under the bed and fumbled for a while, and found a tattered wooden box.
Yang Kang only glanced at it, although this wooden box was already very worn, it should have been very beautiful back then-a big red gold-painted lacquer object.
Mrs. Sun stroked the wooden box, sighed softly, and hesitated for a moment before she took an old copper key from her neck and opened the wooden box.
Yang Kang watched her find something from a shabby cotton jacket, handed it to Yang Kang and said, "Come on, eldest grandson, take a look-"
Yang Kang was stunned, stretched out his hand to take the thing, and when he started it, he knew that this should be gold silk, which is said to be woven with gold silk in the best raw silk - such a thing will not rot for thousands of years.
This kind of gold silk is also rare in history, and it is often used to record very important things.
However, when Yang Kang opened the brocade silk, the gold silk was not too big, and the width was thirty centimeters. It was about forty centimeters long, and it was densely written with dark red handwriting, but the problem was that he knew every word on it, but when it was connected, it was meaningless......
"Grandma, is this a cipher?" Yang Kang instantly thought of this possibility, these men, not every word has a meaning. With a password. Only then can you pick out the useful words and compose the meaning it needs to express.
"Or your eldest grandson is smart!" Mrs. Sun gave a thumbs up and said, "Yes." That's the ciphertext. At first my grandfather got his hands on it. But it took a lot of effort for the boss to figure out what this thing meant. Later, I consulted an old master. Only then did I know that this thing is a cipher text, and the corresponding cipher number jΓΉ is needed to be able to decipher the meaning. β
"What's the password?" Yang Kang asked anxiously.
Mrs. Sun shook her head and said, "I don't know!" β
"Don't know?" Yang Kang looked at Mrs. Sun in a daze, frowned and asked, "Grandma, don't tease me, how could you not know?" β
"I really don't know." Mrs. Sun said in a low voice, "Eldest grandson, grandma, I will explain to you today, and you will know." β
"Uh-huh, you say!" Yang Kang said as he sat down on Mrs. Sun's bed.
Mrs. Sun thought for a while and said: "You also know, my grandfather - that is, Sun Dianying, used cannons to bombard the Eastern Tombs of the Qing Dynasty, and dug up the tombs of Cixi Lafayette and Qianlong Ye. β
Yang Kang secretly said in his heart: "Back then, Sun Dianying bombarded the Qing Dongling, but it was an ironclad thing, and your Sun family also recognized it, what was the suffering?" Could it be that you have wronged your family? β
"Many people say how rich the funeral of Lafayette Cixi was." Mrs. Sun thought for a while and said again, "And Emperor Fu Yi also issued a compensation list back then, so at that time, almost everyone's attention was focused on Cixi Lafayette's Dongling, but ignored Yuling.
Listen to my grandfather, in Yuling, the funeral goods of the first emperor, the second queen and the third concubine are more abundant than the funeral goods of Cixi Lafayette. β
"Huh?" Yang Kang was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, Qianlong has been in power for so many years, and he has also been the emperor, and this person is so happy, and he will naturally arrange a lot of wealth after his death.
In fact, the royal relatives who hold the power in their hands do not arrange their own posthumous affairs very generously, let alone the emperor of a country?
"But the tragic thing is that Yuling's things have been robbed." Mrs. Sun sighed and said, "When the thing arrived, it was eaten and robbed by others." β
"Huh?" This time, Yang Kang didn't know what to say, think about it carefully, Cixi's old lady's rare treasures, not all of them are missing? And some things in Yuling really haven't come out much.
"This golden silk is the stuff in Qianlongye's pillow, in addition to this, there is also a jasper token, but what is the specific use, but I don't know, anyway, my grandfather feels that Qianlong Ye is such a precious thing, what use may be, so, these three things, he has been hiding close to himself." Mrs. Sun said, "Later, when the war was in chaos, my grandfather divided this golden silk into two, one for my father, so that my father took a few things and came to the south to take refuge, and the other was given to my uncle, and in the troubled times, my father and my uncle lost contact." β
When Yang Kang heard this, he was suddenly stunned and asked, "Grandma, it's not that I doubt you, I heard it...... Didn't your grandfather have any other children? β
"I really don't know that!" Mrs. Sun shook her head and said, "You know, I was still young at that time, my father said this, I just listened to it - don't interrupt, that person has nothing to do with us, don't discuss the inheritance of our Sun family, I don't care, what do you care?" β
"I'm a history student!" At the mention of this, Yang Kang sneered.
"Come on, eldest grandson, are you still going to write a biography of our family?" Mrs. Sun shook her head and said, "Anyway, that's what my father told me back then, and I'll tell you this now--my father went to the south and still had some money in his hand, so he wanted to do some small business." But at that time, there was a shortage of soldiers, and it was not easy to do small business! And he made friends with the old man carelessly, met a group of local masters, and from then on, embarked on the same path as my grandfather. β
When Yang Kang heard this, he instantly understood that the Tanglin thief hoped that the heir would come out to live a stable life, but it was a troubled time, and Mrs. Sun's father embarked on the same path as his father.
"Later, the country was too peaceful......," Mrs. Sun said, "my father also saved a little money in his hands, so he told me about his family, the man is an honest man who reads, his ancestors were officials, and he still has some savings, so I got married." β
Speaking of this, Mrs. Sun let out a long sigh, and there was a kind of helplessness in her tone.
"I was looking forward to living this life rich and prosperous from now on, but unfortunatelyβ" Mrs. Sun shook her head and said, "My father didn't tell me until he passed away that the gold silk in the imperial tomb was related to a big secret. The national fortunes of the Manchu Dynasty plummeted, although it was related to the emperor's inaction and the great power of the columns, but, according to superstition, it was Qianlong Lao'er who brought some things to the emperor's tomb, so the Manchu Dynasty was exhausted. β
"That's it?" Yang Kang pointed to the golden silk and said.
"Hmm!" Mrs. Sun said, "There is also the jasper token - it is generally called the Qingyu Emperor Order on the rivers and lakes, and it has a nine-dragon ornament on it, but I don't know what it is used for. β
"What is it that appears in Linxiang City now?" Yang Kang asked curiously, "Could it be the Qingyu Emperor Order?" β
"It's not!" Mrs. Sun said, "I heard that it was a treasure in Yuling, so many people rushed over to see the excitement." β
"I understand!" Yang Kang thought about it, and instantly understood that the person who robbed the Yuling treasure back then is naturally ancient, but the Yuling treasure is still there, which leads to countless people not being able to sit still.
There is an old saying in China - what has no owner, the virtuous live in it.
It doesn't matter if you are virtuous or not, you can cheat and steal - if you get it, it's called ability, no wonder Zhang San and Lao Hai can't help but want to kick it.
Indeed, Qianlong's funeral goods were many times richer than that of an old eunuch in the Ming Dynasty, so he hurriedly disposed of some porcelain cheaply to himself and went to Linxiang City to try his luck.
Zhang San too, anyway, if you are cheap, you are a bastard, and you will not lose if you run a trip.
"I've thought about it many times over the years!" Mrs. Sun continued, "That batch of things back then was too much of an eyesore, and many people wanted it, if it hadn't been smuggled out, then it must still be hidden in the country, and the best place ......."
"Tomb!" Yang Kang suddenly blurted out.
It's ridiculous that something that has been excavated from one tomb is hidden in another tomb?
"Yes!" Mrs. Sun nodded and said, "The person who grabs this kind of thing is bound to be a fellow believer, and people like us like to hide this kind of thing in the soil." β
"Life is a lifetime, and in the end, it is dust." Yang Kang sighed softly.
"yes!" Mrs. Sun sighed and said, "If it weren't for a big grandson like you, I wouldn't have waded into this troubled water, but now, ...... I'm a little unwilling, I'm going to check it out! β
Yang Kang didn't say anything, took out his mobile phone, and said, "Grandma, give me your bank account number." β
"Hmm!" This time, Mrs. Sun didn't pretend to be crazy and stupid, and asked what the bank account was, and immediately gave him the bank account number.
Yang Kang directly transferred money with his mobile phone, and after thinking about it, he still said: "Grandma, in fact, I am still rich now, what treasures and secrets, forget it!" Don't go to Linxiang City to join in the fun, wait for me to get the house done, and then you can move over, okay? β
Mrs. Sun shook her head, took out a verdant and jasper wine cup from the shabby cotton clothes, handed it to him, and said, "Look, isn't it beautiful?" β
As soon as he got his hands on that thing, Yang Kang immediately knew that this thing was not carved from jasper, but jadeite, and at the end of the Qing Dynasty - jadeite rose because of Cixi's love, and now it is prosperous, and it has vaguely dominated the Chinese jewelry market, and the momentum is fierce and unstoppable.
