A convincing explanation is still an unsolved mystery, but there are many folklore about it.
As for why sourdrang queen was not buried in Zhaoling, there is a folk saying that "one dream decides the tomb site". When sourdrang queen died, the Qing court followed the ancestral system and decided to bury her in Zhaoling, where she was buried with Taizong. However, when Zigong passed Dongling, it suddenly became heavy and abnormal. 65,438+028 Bamen were all crushed, their teeth cracked and they could not move, so they had to park in Zigong. After two hours, I want to move on. Zi Gong seems to grow on the ground and doesn't move at all. Now I am so anxious that I sent a funeral king, so I flew to the court. Emperor Kangxi received the letter, but he was at a loss That night, the emperor dreamed of sourdrang queen and said to him, "I have made up my mind not to be buried with Taizong. Now the parking place in Zigong is Shangji Jiarang, so I can build a mausoleum and bury it on the spot. Remember what I said, I won't violate it. " After the emperor woke up, he followed the instructions and chose auspicious pigeons, that is, to build a mausoleum. It won't be so heavy to move the coffin this time. Obviously, this is purely false and cannot be used as a basis.
Others said that because sourdrang queen married Dourgen, she was no longer the queen of Huang Taiji, so she was not qualified to be buried in Zhaoling, and she was not ashamed to be buried with Huang Taiji. The marriage between sourdrang queen and Dourgen was never recorded in the official documents of the Qing court. After Emperor Kangxi, all the emperors recognized her as the queen of Emperor Taizong. So this reason is not enough.
And access to historical data, sourdrang queen was not buried with Huang Taiji, because there is such a record. Sourdrang queen had left a will for his burial place before his death. She earnestly enjoined Emperor Kangxi: "I'll tell you what's behind me: Emperor Taizong's Zigong was so humble that he didn't respect him. It is not convenient to be buried together at this time. Not opening fields is a waste of time and people, and it is not the meaning of burial. " I love you father and son, and I can't bear to go far. I must be safe in Zunhua, with no regrets. "Emperor Kangxi has always been filial to his grandmother. After sourdrang queen's death, Emperor Kangxi followed his will and buried his grandmother near Zunhua Dongling.
Then, why is Xiaozhuang buried outside the Feng Shui wall on the east side of Dahongmen in the Qing Palace, instead of in the imperial tomb? Many unofficial history said that this was because Xiaozhuang married Dourgen and lost the face of the Aisingiorro family, so she was buried outside the Lingqu Gate and punished as a doorman for future generations. In fact, this is just the subjective understanding of a busybody. The real reason is that Xiaoling of Shunzhi is in the supreme position in the mausoleum area, and Xiao Zhuang is Shunzhi's biological mother, so she is buried anywhere in the mausoleum area, which is lower than Xiaoling and out of proportion to her seniority. Second, although Xiao Zhuang was buried in Zunhua Qing Dongling, he is still a system with Shenyang Huang Taiji Zhaoling. Sourdrang queen's mausoleum is called Zhao Qianling. Therefore, it is different from the Qing Dongling, and cannot be confused. It can only be buried outside Dongling District to show the difference. Third, both the emperor and the prince in the Qing Dynasty started from the tomb of the tomb owner with the highest seniority. Sourdrang queen had the highest qualifications among all the people buried in Dongling in the Qing Dynasty, so every time he visited the grave, he had to start from the tomb of Zhao Qianling where sourdrang queen was located. Dahongmen is the main entrance of the mausoleum. This is the only place where people visit the mausoleum. The construction of Zhaoling Mausoleum next to Dahongmen has also provided great convenience for the mausoleum, eliminating the labor of detour. Fourth, in the Qing Dynasty, Zuo was regarded as a noble position. The emperor visited the mausoleum, and people who went in and out of the palace gate, the temple gate and the mausoleum gate all took the left gate, while ministers took the right gate. Zhaoling, a building on the left side of Dahongmen, is a noble place, which also reflects the respect and admiration of her descendants. The left side of Dahongmen is high and flat, with thick and pure soil, while the right side of Dahongmen is low-lying, stony and close to Xihe River, so there are often floods. Therefore, from the geographical environment, Zhaoxi Mausoleum should also be built on the left side of Dahongmen. Judging from the above, burying sourdrang queen outside Dongling is by no means to punish her for guarding the mausoleum gate for future generations, but the best choice made after comprehensive consideration of various reasons.
