Qianlong emperor lifetime collects countless jewellery, after Dan Qianlong draws shoot, these jewellery are put to rise by Jia Qingfeng. Hundred years hind, give up the throne of broading appearance of emperor of quiet day last stage 11 years, namely on June 27, 1923 late night, forbidden City catchs fire suddenly, this mysterious fire, the jewellery commit to the flames that Qianlong emperor and past dynasties emperor collect. About this conflagration reason, still be group of a mystery up to now.
The ablaze Gong Zaizi that build good fortune bears city northwest wine cup, it is one picket from the building south the Northern Dynasties, only then build at the beginning of Qianlong year, here palace basically is a center with Yan Chunge, still have all round coagulate sunshine building of house of beautiful jade of building of ice of crock of treasure of hall, fine lotus flower, jade, Jing Shengzhai, Ji Yun, green jade, Hui Yao, accumulate emerald green booth to wait strewn at random have the building that send. This building is to press design of Changjiang Delta gardens, also have royal wind model.
According to data account, the palace that build good fortune is whole garden, be not Qianlong to be built formerly, the palace foundation when Ming Dynasty rebuilds and become however. When Ming Dynasty, it is here male on the west 5, with the eastern side male east 5 photographs are corresponding, it is emperor all the time child abode. It is the place that lives when Qianlong emperor teenager here allegedly. After Qianlong succession, because be opposite here is sentient, undertake rebuilding then, and instead establishs blessing palace garden.
Garden of the palace that build good fortune is the recreational place when Qianlong v/arc be on the throne, because here is peaceful, allegedly Qianlong herein drinks tea to make a picture write a poem. Qianlong lifetime writes poetic epigraph most, very much in the palace that build good fortune a horizontal inscribed board is Qianlong handwriting. And Qianlong leaves a lot of poems to make here, have among them: "Dried meat snow still like that an affectionate couple is made of baked clay, east wind does not send damask silk flower completely. Wish to will build the good fortune in blessing palace, grant with extensive region area home of 10 thousand surnames.
Qianlong regards the palace that build good fortune as not only the good place with recreational amuse oneself, and also be the place that Qianlong collects jewellery. Qianlong lifetime likes jewellery, and like Gu Hua to collect. Qianlong should be emperor of quiet day past dynasties collect jewellery most. Already the foreigner sends, also the ancients stays, still have the jewelry that vassal state delivers, all without exception was reflected health male flourishing age.
1799, qianlong draws shoot, jia Qing right now already succession, he knows here hid a lot of jewellery, the good-for-nothing or queer character that then life person collects Qianlong seals up for keeping entirely place, add a lock. Built blessing palace to become Qianlong jewellery storeroom from now on. Classics corridor is smooth, salty later abundant, treat together, Guangxu 4 emperors, everybody had not opened the storeroom of the palace that build good fortune of Qianlong. Also became the close garden that very few at that time somebody enters here.
After Qianlong emperor is dead 100 old, already the Pu Yi of give up the throne lives in clear Gong Li as before, he was opened inadvertently be in storeroom among them, the jewellery of face of the underside of a quilt was stupefied. Hide treasure part about Qianlong emperor, pu Yi ever was in his " my before half a lifetime " in have clear account: "I am that 16 years old years, one day as a result of curiosity drive, call eunuch to open the palace that build good fortune a storeroom there. Library door a paper strip for sealing is very thick, at least a few years had not left. I see houseful is the big case that piles the ceiling, there is Jiaqingnian's seal on box skin, what thing is inside, who also cannot say comes. I called eunuch to open, it is hand scroll calligraphy and painting and jade article of special exquisite antique completely so. Cleared up later, this is in those days him Qianlong most the rare curiosa that love. After Qianlong dies, jia Qing gives orders to seal up for keeping those jewellery plaything entirely, replete the palace that build good fortune takes a lot of hall storeroom, what what I discover is among them one library nevertheless. Some libraries are full of some sacrificial vessel, libraries be full of some china, libraries be full of a picture, a lot of pictures that Italian man life paints to Qianlong rather also inside. In the storeroom at the back of the hall that raise a heart, I still discovered a lot of very interesting " 100 treasure small box " , allegedly this also is the plaything of Qianlong. Small box of this kind of 100 treasure uses red sandalwood ligneous into, the appearance is like general bookcase, opened like a stair, the cent on every ladder becomes a few small grid, same playing thing is in every grid, for example a the tooth globe that a this inch of half the four Books (The Great Learning,The Doctrine of the Mean,The Analects of Confucius and Mencius) that hand of a pyxis of a porcelain of the Song Dynasty, celebrity copies, essence carves, carve is worn the walnut of archaic story, a few engrave poem having a problem painterly melon seeds and an Egypt. In small box of a 100 treasure, calligraphy and painting ranginging from... to... , inscriptions, jade article, bronze ware, china, ivory carving, without one unprepared, the name is 100 treasure, box of a diminutive has in fact namely hundreds of kinds, large more more than 1000 kinds. Still have bake or dry by the heat of a fire of a kind of tailor-made red sandalwood wood a few, there is a message without one place above, there is a treasure in every message, I did not see this thing, I at that time a 100 treasure small box that discovers personally, have 449 a small case about, take the hall that raise a heart. Take the hall that raise a heart..
Leave so big treasure house to ancestor, pu Yi although the age is small, but he likes to go up here is peaceful. Still let a person the palace that build good fortune again reparative anew, next the amuse oneself when here becomes Pu Yiping and the place that put the motion picture. Pu Yi moves the past to live simply later.
Pu Yi since discovery after Cang Baomo counts ancestor Qianlong herein, do not see him the age is small, dan Puyi has calculation very much. Introduce in the book according to him, he is thinking at that time, as the host of Forbidden City, how many jewellery does he have after all? He discovers now, but Where is those treasure that did not discover? Whether by person spirit away?
It is normal that Pu Yi wants to also be belonged to so, clear at that time the court of a feudal ruler already give up the throne, it is Pu Yi only still can live in palace, qing Chaoyi is cut formal he can be withheld in Forbidden City, but right now Pu Yi nobody puts him in the eye. The pilfer in palace happens from time to tome in those days.
Zhuang Shidui of foreign emperor division ever told Pu Yi a secret, he says the ground installs door ave to go up, open a lot of antique newly suddenly to spread, but the boss that antique spreads besides the official that eunuch is internal affairs government office, what sell in inn is the thing in palace.
The jewellery in quiet day palace can say countless, after because quiet day is entered,closing, ming Dynasty basically left clear government in the thing in palace. No matter amount and value are very breathtaking. Dan Qingchao evening, the nobody in palace goes these jewellery have statistic after all how many, the disorder of palace, gave in-house person the chance of pilfer.
So Pu Yi also does not know to there is how many jewellery after all in palace, say in the book according to Pu Yi: "Think today, that is a catastrophe simply. Enter loot action, can saying is from go up and fall, everybody inside. Those who change character, always the person that all organic meetings steal, it is to not have do not steal, and act boldly and with confidence the ground is stolen. The means of pilfer also differs each, lock of the prize that dial the door is stolen secretly, have a ground legal procedures, brazenly ground is stolen. Before eunuch is used mostly one kind of means, chancellery and officials are used conduction guaranty, mark sells or borrow an appreciate and request award to wait, namely hind a kind of means. Admire as to what I and Pu Jie use suffer, it is ritzy means. Of course, I will never have such idea in those days, what I think is only, others is in pilfer my property. Others is in pilfer my property..
The pilfer conduct in palace is more and more serious, somebody suggests Pu Yi thinks method stops pilfer action. Then Pu Yi decides the amount of jewellery of palace of thoroughly quiet day.
When Pu Yi begins jewellery of check the amount, weird thing happening, door of a few palace by break open, the big diamond that connects him himself by person spirit away. Gas gets Pu Yi to be investigated pilfer case, begin from eunuch above all, some even subject sb to torture, also do not have fish result. When Pu Yi the check the amount that send a person builds blessing Gong Li, the move with indescribable conflagration rise. Accordingly, catch fire the dot builds blessing palace to have how many jewellery after all, pu Yi is not clear also.
After mysterious conflagration crosses Forbidden City, somebody shows Jing Tai year the big Tibet classics that the edition of big Tibet classics between reachs the wide unripe Tibet that count place thousands of pieces is become entirely cindery. Still have the valuable such as qualitative musical instruments used in a Buddhist or Taoist mass of many Jin Fo, gold. With respect to Lian Qingchao 9 emperors picture reachs celebrity calligraphy and painting, jade article, china burn down. Internal affairs government office still announced specific figure later, but this number moisture is too big, include the jewelry that is taken by pilfer probably.
Forbidden City conflagration is worn when rising, an eunuch that calls Ma Lailu discovers above all, say according to him conflagration respects Sheng Zhai to begin to burn from the palace that build good fortune, ma Lailu rises when sound the night watches, discover conflagration has been burned to corridor. He reports to the room that respect a work rapidly, but the person in palace the experience of fire of which can be saved, official of internal affairs government office and eunuch people was dumbfounded, can look at conflagration combustion helplessly only.
When big firebrand lofty Yan Shouge is burned collapsed, even house of beautiful jade of Hui Yao building, auspicious cloud building, green jade also became an a sea of fire, lofty Gu Shudou burns even Gong Li. The common people that lives in palace also looks to watch the scene of bustle outside only.
Live in nevertheless east after handing in the Italian envoy house in civilian alley to discover igneous love, they expedite fire engine and firemen instantly, but have a regulation as a result of palace, without Pu Yi's command, must not enter. Internal affairs government office prevents an Italian to enter palace, pu Yi agrees with Italy to send a person to advance palace cut out an engine later, right now conflagration had burned a many hour.
After firemen is entered, there is tap water in Forbidden City, firemen is obliged to take water from the drive river outside Forbidden City, short time cannot put out conflagration at all. Italian firemen is obliged to pull down partial palace, formed one segregation band, just make conflagration does not have spreading situation.
According to historical data account, pu Yi also arrived later fire fighting spot, he also was psyched out by conflagration, zhuang Shidui ever wrote in him " the dusk of Forbidden City " write: "I see the emperor and empress stand on one caboodle anxious wood, stare the picture before cloudily. A few infante also reached the spot. The thing to put out a fire knows nothing about the personnel of internal affairs government office, however ground of make a great show of being in earnest to well-ordered firemen Yao 5 drink 6. " be stationed in even England China embassy staff is right also Pu Yi's appearance had account at that time: "Those present feels sad for small emperor, he just is standing all the time, be surrounded by the trusted follower, slow-witted slow-witted ground looks at all these. Slow-witted slow-witted ground looks at all these..
Pu Yi right now although the age is small, but he looks very lucidly to the scene at that time. He recollects later: "In fire fighting when, the person in Chinese, foreigner, Forbidden City, suburban person, person bearer is gone to, boiling, busy into posse. Busy what to return besides fire fighting, this can imagine. Dan Zi banned a city to express to thank to all these. " after fire destroys, person of broading appearance life provided the food such as fruit, refreshments to firemen, still give the police of fire fighting and firemen go off with the recompense cost of 60 thousand silver dollar.
After conflagration passes, person of broading appearance life repairs a tennis court here, let a person search the article that whether has survival in on fire dot next, those who make a person weird is, the article such as calligraphy and painting of it doesn't matter, ancient porcelain, have the bullion relic that burns frit only. Internal affairs government office lets inn of Beijing each gold clear, among them inn of a gold buys next discretion with 500 thousand silver dollar, allegedly refine becomes gold nearly twenty thousand and two. Internal affairs government office cindery outfit a few gunny-bag, deal out official, some officials also from these cindery in abstraction gives gold.
Why does conflagration become a puzzle?To this mysterious conflagration, pu Yi ever said: "I just wanted to investigate the facts about a crime of eunuch pilfer jewellery, they with respect to burn down garden of the palace that build good fortune destroys evidence! " this explains, this conflagration and broading appearance Qing Dynasty are concerned toward the jewellery in palace. There is a scholar to think later, the eunuch that this is Forbidden City Gong Li guides from what act one makes fun of oneself, they are afraid that jewellery of broading appearance fish is missing, put this conflagration then. The article that comes out from Gong Li at that time, had taken antique store to often see in Beijing ferry. But can come out secretly the eunuch of jewellery is an emperor or close-fitting personnel ability sees empress, general eunuch is done not have so bold.
Still have a view, short circuit of the electrical wiring inside Forbidden City catchs fire, because broad,appearance often discharges in palace shadow, room of electric scene machine, electric lamp is in De Rixin fast. Eunuch of be in charge also does not know the common sense that use phone, there still is small-sized power plant inside Forbidden City additionally, be in charge of Gong Li illume technically using. Return somebody to consider as Gong Li's oil lamp be on fire, but oil lamp is used centenary did not catch fire, be in unluckily catch fire right now?
To Pu Yi give up the throne this conflagration after 11 years, had gone fast hundred years, still become a puzzle now. The suspicion of the eunuch in eye of Dan Zaipu appearance is too big. After conflagration passes, pu Yi gives orders repatriate a lot of eunuch. This conflagration, to archaeology of our country cultural relic also be one big loss. Regrettablly the baby that Qianlong keeps does not have remnant how many, but cannot blame Pu Yi, because his age is too small, do not have how many experience, besides quiet day is already right now ruined.
