In fact, when a new emperor ascended the throne, he thought of where he would die, so he ordered his men to build their own cemetery. Because it took a long time for ancient people to build a project, some emperors began to build tombs when they ascended the throne, but they didn't build them when they died, but most of them still lived in tombs with good feng shui.
The discovery of Qin Shihuang's mausoleum shocked the world. According to historical records, Qin Shihuang began to order the construction of his own mausoleum shortly after he ascended the throne at the age of thirteen. Although as early as the Warring States period, some princes built tombs before their death, it was the first initiative of Qin Shihuang to advance the time when the monarch built tombs before his death to the early days of his accession to the throne.
The Han dynasty continued the custom of the Qin dynasty, and the wind of thick burial became more popular. According to historical records, the mausoleum of Emperor Wendi consumed one-third of the state's fiscal revenue. Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wendi and Emperor Wendi advocated frugality all their lives. After hundreds of years of war, the state decided that it was not until two years after Emperor Wendi's death that they began to build their own tombs. In the Tang Dynasty, Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty, because of the strong national strength and rich society, the wind of reburial prevailed again. Many emperors began to build tombs on a large scale when they succeeded to the throne.
Generally speaking, the whole history of China is dominated by thick burials. After the emperors succeeded to the throne, they began to collect labor on a large scale and built their own tombs for a long time. If the emperor is in power for a long time, then the mausoleum will take a long time to build and be luxurious.
