The mystery of Empress Dowager Cixi's incorruptible body? Is it because of the Night Pearl? After Empress Dowager Cixi's death, she had a pearl of night in her mouth, and it was said that this pearl of night was as bright as day, and within 100 meters, she could see fine hair, and it was rumored that it was also a treasure that kept Empress Dowager Cixi's body incorruptible.
In fact, although this night pearl is extremely valuable, the real reason why Empress Dowager Cixi's body is not incorruptible is not because of this night pearl, but the coffin containing empress Dowager Cixi's body.
The coffin containing the body of Empress Dowager Cixi was not ordinary wood, but a very precious and rare gold silk nan wood, which was so hard that it would not decay for a long time. More importantly, when the craftsmen gave the coffin to Empress Dowager Cixi, they also brushed more than forty lacquers outside the coffin, which greatly played a role in sterilization and antiseptic.
Another important reason is that Empress Dowager Cixi had severe dysentery before she died, which can be said to be diarrhea, and the intestines in the abdomen are almost empty, reducing the bacteria in the intestines. Under the influence of such internal and external factors, the body of Empress Dowager Cixi was not incorruptible, in fact, it had nothing to do with the Night Pearl. Friends, what do you think?
