Chapter 267: Yongzheng's True Cause of Death
?“ The emperor Yongzheng is actually very talented, he is very pragmatic, conscientious and hands-on. At the same time, he is also very strict, and he is very strict with his subordinates, but it's a pity that his reign is too short, only thirteen years, maybe his fate should be like this, who let Kangxi live so long.
There are many opinions about the cause of Yongzheng's death, and there are many versions. The most widely spread in the rivers and lakes is that Yongzheng was killed by Lu Siniang. At that time, Lu Siniang's father died tragically due to literary prison, and the Lu family was either executed or sent to the frontier.
But Lu Siniang was lucky to escape and hid in the folk to learn martial arts. Later, Lu Siniang disguised herself and blended into the deep palace, and secretly cut off Yongzheng's head one day. It is also said that some people rumored that the corpse in Yongzheng's tomb did not have a head, but was only made of pure gold and buried with his body.
Some people also say that Yongzheng was strangled to death by the palace maid, and some people even overlapped this palace maid with Lu Siniang, saying that Lu Siniang strangled him to death. There are also legends that Yongzheng died of a stroke, and even the most bizarre legend is that Yongzheng was killed by the author Cao Xueqin because Cao Xueqin's lover was robbed by Yongzheng to become the queen. Ay! This is really nonsense.
Yongzheng's real cause of death was that he died of poisoning by taking pills. It may be that he wants to be an emperor for a few more years, and Yongzheng can be said to have reached the extreme in his pursuit of the elixir of life. He even invited a lot of Taoist Dan masters to refine medicine for him in the Old Summer Palace. It is said that Yongzheng was in the Old Summer Palace when he died, and in the ten days before his death, the Old Summer Palace also transported a large number of alchemy materials.
This is not groundless, in the years before Yongzheng's death, he also distributed aphrodisiacs to his humerus ministers, which shows his fascination with alchemy. You are a Maoshan lineage, and you should know more about the Seventh Division of Maoshan than I do.
There are two people in the lineage of Maoshan Danshi who have been left in the Old Summer Palace by Yongzheng for a long time to refine the elixir of life for him, these two people are Zhang Taixu and Wang Dingqian. And the treasure thing I want to talk about was known by these two people.
Although I haven't seen the parchment with my own eyes, it has been classified as a top secret by the Absolute Dragon Society, but I learned from the analysis of the news that Yongzheng was poisoned by heavy metals because of the long-term use of pills in his later years, which made his brain not very bright.
When urging the two to alchemy, Yongzheng inadvertently revealed some news about the treasure. And after these two people learned the news, they kept silent. In their words, Yongzheng was in a daze at the time, and he didn't know what he was talking about. And they were also afraid that the leakage of the news would lead to death, so they did not publicize it to the public.
But it didn't take long for Yongzheng to die overnight because he took the pills of these two people. At that time, Qianlong came to the Old Summer Palace, and on the third day after Yongzheng's death, he drove Zhang Taixu and Wang Dingqian out. According to the analysis of later historians, it was not that Qianlong was magnanimous and did not want to execute these two people, but that he was afraid that his family would be ugly.
If these two people are killed, other Taoists will spread the news, and the world will know it, after all, it is really a bit embarrassing for an emperor to die because of his obsession with the elixir of immortality and taking medicine.
After the two left the Old Summer Palace, they parted ways, and it was from that time that Emperor Qianlong emphasized Buddhism and began to suppress Taoism, I have to say that this has a lot to do with Yongzheng's death. The two of them recorded the location of this dragon vein treasure, but they did not make it public, but put the secret into a Taoist holy place.
The parchment scroll that the Dragon Digging Society stumbled upon recorded the story written by Wang Dingqian. But it's a pity that when my insider wanted to continue digging deeper, his identity was exposed, and I haven't heard anything from him since then.
Just when I was at a loss, Liu Cong found a scanner that could analyze the booklet. What I never expected was that through the comparison of the booklet with more than 100 characters on the bronze compass, I knew more about this matter. It turned out that this bronze compass and this booklet were all made by Zhang Taixu.
You said that it was a coincidence that the two of them knew this secret together, and they wrote it down separately, and it happened to be obtained by the two of us. And coincidentally, our old Chen family had already obtained the secret of the treasure of the dragon vein of the Qing Dynasty 90 years ago, which was really looking for him thousands of times, and suddenly looking back, that person was there, and the lights were dim.
According to my analysis, these two people knew the secret of the Great Qing Dynasty treasure, but they did not make it public, but hid the location of the Great Qing Dragon Vein treasure in a Taoist holy place. It is nothing more than a punishment for Qianlong's emphasis on Buddhism and neglect of Taoism, and the desire to wait until the right time to let the descendants of Taoism know this secret, so as to open this dragon vein treasure. After all, Taoism was in decline at that time, and it was deeply suppressed, so it was difficult to fight the Qing royal family at that time. ”
Chen Ziyang couldn't believe his ears, what a coincidence. Ninety years ago, his great-grandfather led his grandfather and fifth grandfather into the tomb of the Seven Martyrs Mausoleum, took out the brass compass, but lost the pamphlet in the tomb.
Later, his fifth grandfather went down to the tomb and found this booklet again, coupled with the progress of science and technology, the contents of the destroyed booklet were able to be rediscovered. The booklet, along with the brass compass, unexpectedly reveals the secret of the treasure of the dragon vein of the Great Qing Dynasty.
"I know it's hard for you to believe it, and even it took me a long time to accept this result. It's really ironic, I've been looking for the treasure of the Great Qing Dragon Vein for most of my life, but I never thought that this secret would always be in my hands.
The parchment scroll written by Wang Dingqian and the pamphlet written by Zhang Taixu both record this incident and the location of this Taoist holy place. According to Zhang Taixu, if you want to enter this Taoist holy land, you need to find the seven Maoshan Seven Masters when the seven stars converge, and use everyone's means to break through the seven levels in order to get the location of the Great Qing Treasure.
I think that's why the Dragons want to imprison you, but they're not in a hurry to recruit you. Because there is still a long time before the day of the convergence of the seven stars. What they need is your skills as a Maoshan Land Master to help them open the sacred land of Taoism and thus learn the location of the Great Qing Dragon Vein treasure. ”
