Many of China's national treasure-level cultural relics have been preserved in museums around the world and have been properly kept by people, but there are also some cultural relics that have been lost overseas for historical reasons, or their whereabouts are unknown. Among the national treasures whose whereabouts are unknown, these 4 treasures can be called top national treasures, and one of them can be rich and invincible.
1. The Jade Seal of the First Emperor of Qin
Simply put, the jade seal is the emperor's seal, and after the emperor has written the holy will, he needs to stamp the jade seal to take effect, otherwise it is invalid, and even if it is passed down, the minister will not approve of it. The jade seal is a symbol of imperial power, and when the emperor wants to give up the imperial throne to others, he also needs to hand over the jade seal to the new emperor, so that the transfer of power can be regarded as a completed transfer of power, otherwise it cannot be regarded as a real abdication.
Dozens of jade seals are now preserved in China's museums, but most of these jade seals are jade seals from the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the first piece of jade seal in history, the jade seal of Qin Shi Huang, has long been lost.
Qin Shi Huang was the first emperor in the history of our country, and his jade seal was also the first jade seal in China, so this piece of jade seal has more historical value than other jade seals. Moreover, the Jade Seal of The First Emperor of Qin was still made with the famous Heshi Bi, and its own value was immeasurable.
2. Lanting set order
The Lanting Collection is the representative work of Wang Xizhi, the "Book Sage", and also the pinnacle of China's calligraphy works. The artistic value of the Lanting Collection Itself is very high, coupled with the blessing of Wang Xizhi's golden signboard, if it is handed down, the value is naturally immeasurable, and it can even be comparable to the Qingming River Map.
Because of its high artistic value, the Lanting collection also made the Tang Emperor Li Shimin regard it as a treasure. According to records, after Li Shimin's death, because he loved the Lanting set order very much, he took the Lanting set order as his own funerary product to the underground, but later after Li Shimin's Zhao Tomb was stolen and excavated, he did not find the Lan Ting set order in the tomb, which also made the lan ting set order a historical mystery, and the whereabouts of the Lan Ting set were unknown.
3. The Sword of Kowloon
Qianlong is a very talented monarch, but also a literati monarch, like poetry and painting, at the same time he himself also has a good achievement in poetry and painting, Qianlong wrote a lot of poetry in his lifetime, and the artistic value of his calligraphy and painting works is relatively high. Because Qianlong understands and loves art, he also likes to collect some works of art, and because he is the emperor, it is easy to get treasures from all over the world.
Qianlong has a collection of tens of thousands of treasures of all kinds, the most legendary of which is the Nine Dragon Sword. The Nine Dragon Sword is engraved with nine golden dragons, which has the meaning of nine nine to one, and after Qianlong's death, this sword was also buried in the Qing Dongling Tomb as his funeral.
In 1928, Sun Dianying stole the Qing Tombs, and the Nine Dragon Sword also fell into his hands. Sun Dianying's tomb robbery caused dissatisfaction among the Manchus, and Puyi and others demanded that Chiang Kai-shek severely punish Sun Dianying. In order to avoid punishment from the Republic of China government, Sun Dianying took out a part of the treasure obtained from the tomb robbery to bribe the high-ranking officials of the Republic of China government, in which he took out the Nine Dragon Sword and gave it to Dai Kasa, who gave it to Chiang Kai-shek for himself.
However, Dai Kasa kept the Nine Dragon Sword for himself, but gave It to Chiang Kai-shek with other treasures. On March 17, 1946, Dai Kasa was killed in a plane crash on his way back to Nanjing. After Dai Kasa's death, the Nine Dragon Sword also disappeared, and it is said that the Nine Dragon Sword was also burned in this accident.
Fourth, the pearl of the night in Cixi's mouth
Cixi was at the helm of the late Qing Dynasty, because she was a woman, and she was a woman who was greedy for money and power, so her treasures were not in the minority, she could always stay by her side for her own treasures, and after her death, Manchu Qing also placed her treasures in her tomb.
The most precious treasure in Cixi's tomb was the pearl of the night that she contained in her mouth. After Sun Dianying blew up Cixi's tomb and stole it, the trustees gave it to Song Meiling, but then Sun Meiling sold the Night Pearl to an oil tycoon. After the night pearl fell into the hands of private collectors, it disappeared from the public's eyes, and it is still missing, which also makes it gradually lose news.
