Aunt Lan handed me the map and asked me to look at it first and then talk.
I took it and compared it with the two in my hand, and my confidence was shaken at that time.
This picture is much more detailed than mine. Although I have never been to that place, I intuitively think this is reliable.
Up, down, left, and right, every terrain is marked in great detail, mountains, rivers, clearly...
Of course there are some similarities.
Also in the middle is a strange mountain with a white top and black bottom, the same two sentences: Duanyun Mountain in the Northeast, Golden Dome Demon Temple.
"Aunt Lan, what on earth is going on?
"You are not a member of the world, so why do you have this treasure map in your hands?" I asked in surprise.
Aunt Lan sighed and said: "Oh, this is a long story to say, Xiaodao, do you think I am different from ordinary people?
"Do you feel that Auntie is a little pretentious?"
Aunt Lan asked me with a smile.
I shook my head and said, "Are you just pretending? You are indeed different from others. That's because your temperament is so outstanding!"
I laughed too.
"I think you are naturally noble, or graceful, right?
"Like those princesses, princesses, concubines... and so on in the past." I replied carefully.
"Haha, you kid is really good at talking!" Aunt Lan looked at me kindly.
She continued: "Actually, there is no such thing as grace. It's just the elders in the family who helped me develop some habits since childhood."
"well!"
Aunt Lan stopped smiling: "What nobility? In fact, it's quite ridiculous to say that our family's background is not a noble at all, on the contrary, we are a servant.
"Tell me that my fate has something to do with the Qing Dynasty's treasure."
Aunt Lan's words shocked and surprised me more and more.
It was in this room that she told me the true origin of the Qing treasure.
…
It happened during the most glorious period of the Taiping Rebellion. At that time, most of China had been occupied by the Taiping Rebels. Countless elite troops and senior military attachés of the Qing Dynasty... had been devoured by the flames of war.
It can be said that the Qing Dynasty has reached a time of life and death, including the highest level of the Qing Dynasty, the royal family, already has a pessimistic attitude towards the future.
Empress Dowager Cixi had no choice but to find a Feng Shui master. In all dynasties, there were Feng Shui masters working for the imperial court in the palace.
The Qing Dynasty was no exception.
The most famous Feng Shui master under Cixi was Lu Sheng. This person was a genius who only appeared in the field of Feng Shui for hundreds of years.
Although Lu Sheng was a Han Chinese, he was loyal to Cixi and the court.
He spent ten years of his life deducing a solution to the problem.
In Lu Sheng's opinion, the Taiping Rebellion proved that the Qing Dynasty's dragon vein had been damaged. If you want to change this result, you must start with Feng Shui.
He came up with an amazing plan to re-establish a small dragon vein by choosing a suitable place in the northeast, the birthplace of the Qing Dynasty, and using manpower to conquer nature.
In this way, the small ones can be used to make up for the big ones and change the damage of the main dragon vein.
No one knew whether Lu Sheng's method was reliable, but at that time, Cixi had no better choice.
So Cixi sent a confidant of the royal family, Prince Shun, to take charge of the matter.
King Shunqing was the most suitable candidate, and he had many talented people under his command. His daughter studied with a famous Feng Shui master.
The next version is almost the same as what is circulated in the world.
King Shunqing led many of his men and summoned masters from various strange sects in the world.
Including Feng Shui, tomb robbing, corpse exorcism, exorcism, mechanisms...
And promised to give them high-ranking officials and generous salaries in the future.
Then he brought five thousand troops and countless craftsmen...
Dozens of carriages of gold and silver treasures were prepared, and these treasures were buried in the deep mountains and old forests of the Northeast.
Later, all those involved were silenced. Only King Shunqing returned to the capital with a treasure map, his daughter, and some confidants to return his life to Cixi.
Let’s not talk about how Cixi rewarded King Shun Qing.
Such a hassle? The national destiny of the Qing Dynasty actually improved.
After several years of fighting, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was annihilated by the Hunan Army led by Zeng Shatou, and the Qing Dynasty continued for a long time.
But in the end, this corrupt court still did not escape the development of the times. With Mr. Sun's Revolution of 1911 firing the first shot, until Yuan Shikai stole the fruits of victory...
The Qing Dynasty with its money-rat tailed head has completely become a trace of history.
Naturally, the lineage of King Shunqing also disappeared among the people, because many people knew about the treasures hidden in the Qing Dynasty. All the children of the royal family were anonymous, and no one knew where they were...
So that's what happened? I listened attentively.
I have been looking for the Qing Dynasty treasure for so long, but I didn’t know its true origin until today.
"What about your picture?" I looked at Aunt Lan and asked.
Aunt Lan nodded and said: "Yes, this is the authentic one kept by the Shunqing Prince's Palace. My grandma was the personal maid who served the big princess of the Shunqing Prince's Palace.
“When King Shun Qin passed down to that generation, he only had this daughter, so the treasure map naturally landed on her.
"Da Gege has never married, and she and my grandma have never been separated. They are called master and servant, but they are actually sisters.
"Before she died, she handed over the pictures and a lot of hidden palace money to my grandma."
There was a trace of nostalgia and respect in Aunt Lan's eyes.
"The reason why our family has so many good things is actually passed down from my mother's family. In addition to money, my grandma learned a lot during her time with Gege, including some court etiquette."
Aunt Lan continued: "My mother was taken by Da Gege and taught her for a period of time when she was a child.
"In order to commemorate this noble man who was so kind to our family, my grandma raised my mother according to the standards of Dagege, which can be regarded as a reflection of her own unique thoughts.
"It turned out to be a tradition in our family, and I was raised according to this standard from an early age. Of course, it may be a bit nondescript, and it's not a good habit in this era."
"When I arrived at Lan Yue, I had given up these old rules."
Speaking of her beautiful and lovely daughter, Aunt Lan smiled unconsciously.
"No wonder your temperament is so good?" I nodded in realization.
"So you have this real treasure map, have you ever thought about looking for the treasure?" I asked, holding the map.
Aunt Lan shook her head and said: "For me, this is just a souvenir from the older generation. I am very satisfied with my current life. There is no need to take any more risks. Even if your Uncle Lan once curiously wanted to go, I stopped him. .
"Besides, even if this treasure is dug out, it still belongs to the country. We have no ability and should not go looking for these things." Aunt Lan said lightly.
"That's true!
"These things belong to the country after all. I am committed to finding the treasure, but more to fulfill grandpa's wish." I also nodded.
"Okay, Xiaodao, this task will be left to you from now on." Aunt Lan breathed a sigh of relief.
For a character like her, this treasure map is definitely not a wealth, but a burden.
Then Aunt Lan explained to me the origins of several other treasure maps circulating in the world.
