What's the secret of the legendary Shenyang Beiling underground palace?

As a Shenyang native, I often go to Beiling. As local people know, Beiling Park is now open to the public, and tickets can be entered as long as 6 yuan. And Zhao Ling, who wants to enter the core area of Beiling, needs to spend 50 yuan again. To tell the truth, I grew up in Zhaoling, Beiling, and I have been there only a handful of times. However, most of all the secrets of Beiling are in it.

Behind the Longen Temple in Beiling is Baocheng, and the son of Huang Taiji is in the underground palace of Baocheng. The legend that there is a dark tunnel leading to the underground palace in Zhaoling, Shenyang is widely circulated and reported by the media.

Turning the Long 'en Hall, you can see two pillars and stone altar similar to Dongling. So-called? Similar? But generally speaking, in details, Zhaoling's two-pillar gate and stone altar have their own characteristics.

Take the double-column door as an example. Although there is one on each of the two pillars? Looking at the sky? But unlike Dongling, these two bottles are locked with chains. Legend has it that the stonemason accidentally broke his index finger while carving these two looking up to heaven, and blood splashed on the stone beast. Stone beasts stained with human blood were refined by moonlight and finally refined. He often goes out for a walk, and someone once saw them drinking water by the Hunhe River. The emperor was very angry when he learned that, and ordered two naughty stone beasts to be chained up. Looking up at the sky on the second column door of Qingling in the pass is always facing, while looking up at the sky in Zhaoling is facing the direction of the underground palace. It is said that the emperor intended them to apologize to Emperor Taizong.

The stone altar is a place where emperors or princes of public sacrifices mourn and drink wine during big sacrifices. Some people say that the entrance to the underground palace is under the stone altar. Legend has it that the same was true when Prince Yong paid tribute to the mausoleum in the 60th year of Kangxi. Open this door? , enter the underground palace. Some people don't agree with this statement, thinking that according to the ritual system at that time, once the stone altar was erected, it was forbidden to move forever, and it was impossible for Prince Yong to open the underground palace here.
