After sourdrang queen died, why did it take more than 30 years to be buried?

Sourdrang dowager was the last empress dowager to be buried after her death. Her mausoleum was built by her great-grandson Yong Zhengdi, not her favorite grandson Emperor Kangxi (but her son the emperor shunzhi died long ago). Compared with his son, the emperor shunzhi, sourdrang queen paid much more attention to his grandson, Emperor Kangxi, and saved Kangxi and the Qing Dynasty in times of crisis. It can be said that without sourdrang queen, there would be no Kangxi Dynasty, and the later Qing Dynasty would have gone bad.

Naturally, Emperor Kangxi was also filial to this respected grandmother. As long as he is free, he will always accompany his grandmother, sourdrang queen.

But after the death of sourdrang queen in the 26th year of Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi did not rush to bury his closest grandmother, but parked sourdrang queen's coffin in a hall near Xiaoling.

Of course, it's not that Emperor Kangxi didn't want his grandmother buried, but that his grandmother Xiaozhuang's last words made him feel in a dilemma and difficult to deal with.

It turned out that Empress Xiao Zhuang told her grandson Kangxi when she was dying: Emperor Taizong (that is, her husband Huang Taiji) had been buried for many years, so don't disturb his tomb again. I want to be with my children and grandchildren after I die.

In this way, it gave Emperor Kangxi a big problem-if he listened to his grandmother's last words, it would violate the ancestral system of being buried together after the emperor's death; If you don't listen to grandma's last words, you will leave a reputation of unfilial.

This really stumped Kangxi. He decided to park his grandmother's coffin in the temporary Anfengtang near his father's Xiaoling Mausoleum in the emperor shunzhi, and then slowly find a way by himself.

However, this release lasted for more than 30 years, during which Kangxi made a westward expedition to Gerdan, recovered Taiwan Province Province and recovered Nebuchadnezzar Chu. Until Kangxi died, Kangxi didn't come up with any good ideas.

Of course, this is not because Kangxi was too busy to forget his grandmother.

According to historical records, during the 35 years when Kangxi stopped mourning for his grandmother, Emperor Kangxi visited her grandmother 30 times.

Things just dragged Yong Zhengdi to the throne. On the first day of September, the first year of Yongzheng, after Yong Zhengdi buried his father Kangxi, a minister wrote a letter requesting sourdrang queen to build a mausoleum so that sourdrang queen could be buried at an early date.

This problem, which has plagued Kangxi for thirty-five years, has been put on the agenda again and placed before Yong Zhengdi.

Yong Zhengdi believes that this problem really should be solved. After all, procrastination is not an option.

A few months later, Yong Zhengdi called a group of princes and ministers to the palace and told them what he meant.

Yong Zhengdi believes that his great-grandmother sourdrang queen's coffin, since parked near Xiaoling, has kept his father's country prosperous, with many children and grandchildren, and its land is a treasure; In addition, it is not good for great-grandmother to accompany her children and grandchildren against her wishes.
