During the Ming Dynasty, Toyotomi Hideyoshi sent troops to Korea, and the Lee Dynasty could not resist and had to ask the Wanli Emperor for help. Zhang Juzheng then recommended to the emperor that there was a Shandong politician named Wang Shiqi, who had courage and strategy, and could lead troops to rebel. The Emperor readily agreed. According to historical records, there was another person named Liu Ling who went to Korea with him at that time. This man was originally carrying a vanguard force. But at first glance, the Japanese army was fierce and armed to the teeth. Liu Ling immediately instigated and flinched.
Wang Shiqi was furious, and immediately asked people to tie him up and take him back to the camp, saying that according to the rules set before, he would behead liu ling. The latter was terrified and quickly asked those around him to intercede. After some performance, Wang Shiqi did not kill Liu Ling, but asked him to launch a night attack. The latter did not dare to push back any longer, and could only close his eyes and rush forward. Folks, this matter is found in the History of the Ming Dynasty, and it should be true. From this, it is not difficult for us to see that this Wang Shiqi has courage and strategy, and is a general. Sure enough, as soon as Wang Shiqi got out of his horse, Rikou was beaten back to his hometown.
According to the "History of Ming", after returning to China, Wang Shiqi rose step by step, all the way to bingbu Langzhong, and then was sent to Guangdong and other coastal areas to fight against the Wukou. According to historical records, in 1618, Wang Shiqi died in Shanxi. On the day of the burial, the people of the whole city went out to send off Wang Shiqi, and at the same time witnessed the incorruptibility of this person again, it is said that his funeral supplies only have a box of books, and a few bowls that he usually uses! From then on, Wang Shiqi was known as Wang Qingtian, and his reputation as a Qing official began to spread more and more widely.
Three hundred years later, in the 1950s, Wang Shiqi's tomb was discovered in Linhai City, Zhejiang Province. According to historical records, there was a man-made house at that time, and when digging the foundation, an ancient tomb was inadvertently excavated, and a large number of gold and silver rings and various gemstone jewelry were unearthed in the ancient tomb. Because there were many people present at that time, the things were robbed as soon as they were unearthed. Some of the unconvinced who had not been robbed went to report that someone had dug up the ancient tomb and snatched the contents of the tomb.
The matter was so big that archaeologists from Linhai City rushed to the scene to carry out rescue excavations. At the same time, the government sent special personnel to carry out legal popularization propaganda, requiring the people to take the initiative to hand over the contents of the tomb. The people were of high quality, and when they heard that the objects in the tomb belonged to the state, they immediately handed them in. In the end, it was found that there were hundreds of gold and silver artifacts in the tomb, of which 107 were national first-class cultural relics alone.
Experts say that its value is no less than 1 billion. Then the question comes, isn't it said that it is a Qing official, how can there be 1 billion gold worth in the tomb? Archaeologists said there must be something wrong and demanded that the tomb be sealed. Subsequently, experts went through various historical materials and finally found clues. It turned out that Wang Shiqi was indeed very shabby when he was buried that year. The Wanli Emperor could not bear to see it, so he renovated the tomb three years later, built a stone pavilion in front of the tomb, and rewarded many gold and silver. In other words, this 1 billion gold was given by the Wanli Emperor and had nothing to do with Wang Shiqi!
