Although Daoguang was born a stingy emperor, he was not stingy with what happened behind him. He specially arranged for etiquette and feng shui teachers to go to Dongling for site selection. After careful investigation and discussion, the treasure land was finally selected, and Daoguang was very happy after hearing it. It took seven years to complete and cost two million and two thousand silver. Although everything seems to be going well on the surface, the root cause has long been buried.
It turned out that shortly after the start of construction, the minister's spiritual practice found that the underground water level of the tomb treasure was shallow and the built underground palace leaked, which was a big taboo of the project. In ancient times, wooden coffins were used. Once they bubble, the consequences are unimaginable. The usual solution to this problem is to change the position, but it turns out that it doesn't work. First of all, this land of geomantic omen is recognized by Daoguang Emperor. Now suddenly it's going to change. The wrath of Daoguang, Chen Ling, the first of Feng Shui is hard to protect; Secondly, a lot of money has been spent in the early stage. If it is changed again, the budget will not be enough, and finally it will not meet the requirements of Daoguang Emperor, otherwise it will be beheaded. After weighing the pros and cons, the minister of practice decided to hide the status quo and continue to cooperate. Some waterproof measures have been taken, but the effect can be imagined.
Daoguang heard that the project had been completed and decided to personally accept it. However, Daoguang knew nothing about the construction of this project. He was very satisfied with this magnificent momentum and passed the inspection. He also moved and buried the coffin of the late Queen Niu Cobalt. Finally, I would like to thank the spirit minister and the construction workers for their hard work. The minister's heart has reached his throat, and he suddenly feels as light as a swallow, even breathing more easily, thinking that the emperor is really gullible.
As the saying goes, you can't hide from the first day, but you can't hide from the age of fifteen. In the second year after the completion of the project, Daoguang went to Dongling to worship his ancestors and pray for the Qing Dynasty to protect the country. After the ceremony, Daoguang also wants to visit Queen Xiao Mu and his own mausoleum. This terrible light almost peed my pants. The underground palace has become a puddle, and the coffin of Niu Cobalt has been soaked, floating in the water and watching people. Daoguang is very angry. He called the spiritual priest "morally bankrupt". He is worse than a pig and a dog. He quickly ordered the coffin to be carried up and put in a safe place, and then returned to Beijing angrily. All ministers, feng shui teachers and construction workers involved in the restoration of the mausoleum were arrested and imprisoned. They admitted breaking the law.
Daoguang was depressed, which broke his heart. He made a bold decision, preferring to destroy the ancestral system, bid farewell to Dongling and be buried in Xiling. After learning the lesson from the last mausoleum repair, he sent people to carefully survey the Feng Shui landscape. The executive minister did not dare to neglect, so he chose the best craftsmen, prepared the best stones and started work quickly. They all said that quality is life, and vowed to build Daoguang Mausoleum into a Millennium masterpiece. Please rest assured. What about the completed Dong Qingling Mausoleum? Can only be dismantled, and the cost of dismantling is very high. The minister proposed that the dismantled materials be transported to Xiling for reuse. Dodi already has psychological barriers. His goal is to deal with most materials.
