From Nurhachi at the end of Jin Dynasty to Puyi, the last emperor of Qing Dynasty, there were 12 emperors in Qing Dynasty. No matter whether you live long or short, no matter whether you are praised or degraded before you, you will be buried underground like a bowl of loess after death.
There were 14 emperors in the Ming Dynasty, all of whom were in the Ming Tombs in Beijing, except Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the mountain.
The Qing dynasty was different. A dynasty is divided into three royal cemeteries. It is also rare, so why, let's explore.
First of all: the imperial tomb outside the customs
The twelve emperors of the Qing Dynasty did not have a Beijing hukou before and after entering the customs, so it was definitely difficult to settle in Beijing after their death, so they were buried in the imperial tomb outside the customs.
These two needy families who have not settled in Beijing are Nurhachi and Huang Taiji. After their death, Beijing was still under the control of the Ming Dynasty. So it is no problem that they were buried near Shenyang, the old capital of the late Jin Dynasty.
Moreover, the ancients paid attention to being buried underground. Shenyang in the northeast, as a land of Longxing, also needs the protection of the empire to make the country stable forever. Naturally, it is impossible to move the grave because of entering the customs.
Secondly: the Qingming Mausoleum in Beijing.
After the Qing Dynasty captured Beijing with the help of Wu Sangui, although Dourgen was in power, the first emperor who entered the customs was the emperor shunzhi. the emperor shunzhi loved beauty because a woman became a monk and gave the throne to Emperor Kangxi.
Although he does nothing, he is still an emperor. Since he ascended the throne, it has been a royal tradition to build the imperial tomb. The imperial tomb he built for himself is the Qing tombs.
Emperor Kangxi, who had no father since childhood, lived alone with his grandmother sourdrang queen. Besides, he lived a long life and was emperor for 60 years. His most respected grandmother, Xiaozhuang, was buried in the Qing Dongling. Naturally, Kangxi will definitely choose the Qing Dongling as his burial place, so as to meet his grandmother underground.
Finally: Qing Xiling
In the last part of the article, there was only the Qing Tombs until the death of Kangxi.
However, Yong Zhengdi, a model worker, had an accident. This grandfather Yongzheng lived carefully in the aura or shadow of his father Kangxi all his life. As soon as he ascended the throne, he began to vent his repressed emotions. He built a royal cemetery for himself-Qingxi Mausoleum.
We don't know the purpose, but it is useless to have two opinions on this issue.
The first statement: Yong Zhengdi got the position in the wrong way and was suspected of killing his father. He regretted what he had done after Jin Jia took office, and too many brothers were afraid of being scolded by his father and ancestors after his death, so he had no choice but to build another imperial tomb and live by himself. To keep my ears clean.
The second statement: it is the theory of geomantic omen. Feng Shui master said that the tomb site chosen by Qing Dongling was not a treasure trove of feng shui, so there was no way but to find another place to bury it.
Of these two statements, the former may be higher than the latter, and the latter is more credible. So Yongzheng built a Xiling for himself because of the feng shui problem.
Yongzheng's willfulness as an emperor is no problem, but willfulness will harm future generations. What do you think of this later emperor? Everything is an ancestor. Is the tomb of the Qing dynasty difficult to get?
If there are more and more emperors in the Qing Dynasty, is it possible to put away all the works of the southeast, northwest and central schools to play mahjong?
Yong Zhengdi is very prescient. Thinking of this question, he asked Li Hong, then a prince.
Yongzheng: Li Hong, do you want to be buried in the Qing Xiling with my father and me, or do you want to go to Dongling with your grandfather?
Li Hong: Dad, you know, my grandfather loved me the most since I was a child. Without him and you and me today, if you don't go to grandpa to pay homage to filial piety, I will pay homage instead of you.
Yongzheng: You are the unfilial son, so there is no filial piety here. Didn't you leave me alone?
Li Hong: Dad, how about this? If we are separated, I will let my son accompany you. How about following this rule in the future? You say I accompany you, but you still scold me. Your grandson accompanies you, and you feel distressed, so you will feel better. . .
Yongzheng: Good idea. Let's get started. . .
So after the death of Qianlong, he and Kangxi were buried together, and Qianlong's sons Jiaqing and Yong Zhengdi were buried together, and so on, until the end, but there was a special train, which was the unlucky Daoguang. It's not that he doesn't want to follow the rules, but that his tomb is a shoddy project, forcing him to change from Qing Dongling to please Xiling.
As soon as he broke this rule, he started fooling around. Xianfeng was buried in Dongling, Tongzhi in Dongling, Guangxu and Puyi in Xiling.
Therefore, people are not as good as days. After death, they talked about so many rules and did nothing. They were all robbed anyway. None of the imperial tombs in the Qing Dynasty survived, and all of them were stolen.
