I have left the world, enjoyed the heavens, jumped into this yellow earth, and my life was separated from the Nine Springs. After ordinary people die, they long for the thoughts of the world, and no longer fight for money and power. Throughout the 5,000-year history of China, successive emperors have enjoyed the glory and wealth and beauty of the country.
After death, the emperor often longed to satisfy the seven passions and six desires of the deceased, so a large number of gold and silver jewelry, martyred soldiers, colorful bronzes and other valuable items were hidden under the mausoleum along with the emperor's body.
For their relatives, the relics of dignitaries after their deaths are often just an emotional sustenance, and the inheritance of blood, especially the tombs of Chinese emperors, has huge projects and high construction costs.
The emperor's mausoleum has a very important role in Chinese history, and future generations can continue the traditional cultural foundation of China by studying the cultural, economic, political and social development forms of the mausoleum to the previous generations, and it is the root of the Chinese bloodline. The protection of the mausoleum is more of a respect for the deceased ancestors. When people go to tea, we should be in awe of the dead.
For the protection of the foundation of traditional culture, Sun Dianying has the opposite move. Sun Dianying, who was notorious at the time, was known as the "Great Thief of Tanglin". As recently as 1928, Sun Dianying, under the banner of "conducting military exercises," actually stole the palatial Tanglin Temple in order to prepare funds for the suppression of bandits.
The two tombs stolen by Sun Dianying were the Yuling Tomb of the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty and the Dingling Tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi, a poor and extravagant desirer of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. The mausoleums of Cixi and Qianlong are the most extravagant, with countless rare treasures piled up inside. Under the command of the Beiyang warlords, the status of the tomb keepers existed in name only.
During the tomb robbery, Su Dianying imposed martial law, hid the eyes and ears of the people, and successfully stole the Dingdong Tomb, and with the sound of an explosion, the coffin lid of Empress Dowager Cixi was also opened. The accompanying bandits were all attracted by the golden and splendid mausoleum, plundering in large quantities, from the golden ceiling to the golden dragon on the Zhu pillar. In this way, with the entry and exit of thirty large cars, the dragon vein of the Qing Dynasty was broken.
In order to share the loot as soon as possible, Zhang Dianying contacted people at home and abroad to conduct private transactions on the stolen jewelry. As the saying goes, people are doing it, and the sky is watching. In the end, a generation of thieves were arrested in the search of the Qingdao Police Department detective team and were arrested.
As soon as the news of the incident came out, the Manchu Qing was in an uproar, including many flag bearers and Sunqing royal families. Puyi, the last emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, reported the matter to Mr. Jiang and demanded that Sun Dianying be severely punished. But because Puyi only existed as a puppet emperor, he had long been controlled by the Japanese and did not have any say.
In addition, in the military court, Sun Dianying calmly defended his own behavior "sophistry": he did not have the strong strength of the revolution like Mr. Jiang, and he did not have the barrel of a revolutionary gun, so he had to kill people, and this was done in order to overthrow the rule of the Qing Dynasty. Sun Dianying's approach is really cunning, but he also sees a hint of national revolution. The final judgment is over. For the next twenty years, Sun Dianying was at large.
At that time, Sun Dianying had already led his army to the Longhai Line to make contact with Yan Xishan and Feng Yuxiang, and he had received more than 20,000 people in the civilian army near Songshan, which was deeply valued by Yan and Feng. After Sun Dianying negotiated with Yan Xishan, Tan Wenjiang was also released. Later, Sun Dianying continued to add officers to Jinlu and was promoted to the chairman of Anhui Province and the commander of the provisional Fifth Army.
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, he and Pang Bingxun defected to the enemy to form the New Fifth Army. After Japan's surrender, he became a "loyal subject" of "Saving the Country by Curve" and was appointed commander-in-chief of the Advance Army, making enemies of the People's Liberation Army. In the People's Liberation Army's campaign to liberate Tangyin, Henan, the main criminal who had been at large for more than 20 years was finally captured by the PLA and later died in a war criminals shelter.
The explanation it has left for the world is that Cixi committed heinous crimes against the people and his family at that time, and I should dig his tomb as a matter of course, not a very heinous crime.
Sun Dianying's death undoubtedly had many influences on his son Sun Tianyi. He was born three years after his father robbed the tomb, because he was born in the warlord's family, Sun Tianyi rarely communicated with his father since he was a child, and because his father fought outside for many years, the relationship between father and son was strange, and later because he heard everyone talk about his father's tomb robbery scandal, he had a bad impression of his father.
Sun Tianyi, who has a good family, has suffered from the cold eyes of others since he was a child because of his father's affair. So Sun Tianyi became indignant and strong, as the saying goes: if there is a father, there must be a son. However, the young and promising Sun Tianyi not only did not repeat the mistakes of Sun Dianying, he sweated like rain and read poetry books. In the year of his father's death, Sun Tianyi was already an academic expert and served as the dean of xi'an Foreign Chinese College.
After many years of spring, summer, autumn and winter, Sun Tianyi also became a white-haired old man. Later generations still have mixed evaluations of his father, but posterity has great respect for the only son of the Tanglin thief. Sun Tianyi not only did not go astray in his father's way, but did his best to contribute to the country.
Sun Tianyi
On the way to work for Sun Tianyi, when passing by the tomb of the Yellow Emperor of Xuanyuan, he had a motive that was very different from his father- to protect cultural relics and guard cultural roots. Especially after the death of his father, he donated all the antiques and cultural relics collected by his family to the state, and also held fundraising activities, and all the funds raised were used to repair the imperial tomb.
Sun Tianyi's birth was already doomed, and this was something he could not change. Life from childhood to adulthood has given him a big shadow, and he hopes to change the way others think about him through his own abilities and.
Someone once asked him what he thought of his father's tomb robbery, but Sun Tianyi said that he did not really guard the tomb to atone for his father's sins, and what his father did at that time was not a big mistake.
From Sun Tianyi's words, it can be seen that the son has a more or less protective mentality towards his father. However, after so many years, we look back at the causes and consequences of the entire "Tomb Robbery in Tanglin" and Sun Dianying's approach, which is objectively understandable.
On the one hand, the Qiren killed Sun Dianying's father, which had a great influence on Sun Dianying when he was a child, and sowed the seeds of his dislike for the Manchu Qing in his heart. Sun Dianying has had a ranger style since he was a child, wandering around and getting acquainted with many guns.
On the other hand, the Manchu Qing's feudal rule over the Chinese was an act of regression in the history of the entire Chinese nation. During the reign of Empress Dowager Cixi, the Qing Dynasty squeezed the wealth of the common people, enriched its own treasury, and plundered a large number of gold, silver and treasures. Cixi's extreme individualism, advocating the supremacy of the individual, never considering the people's livelihood, only for herself.
As the only person in the Qing Dynasty who held real power in her hands, Empress Dowager Cixi did not have the dawn people of the world in her heart, but only herself. At that time, the silver allocated to the coastal defense military every year was about 100 million taels of silver, and she stole more than 5 million taels of silver for her birthday and for her own good old age.
Building the Summer Palace for himself, as a place for his old age to recuperate and live, he only saw himself, but he could not see the war-torn people. The personal wealth brought about by Cixi's practice was incomparably despised in the eyes of the world at that time. Sun Dianying, who was extremely resentful of Manchu rule, dug up Cixi's tomb, which is also understandable to the parties concerned. This is also why later generations have mixed praise and criticism of Sun Dianying's approach.
However, the revolution can never have a bad conscience, and a revolution that breaks the law has no confidence to support it. No matter how hard a man tries for the revolution, breaking the law is breaking the law, and there is no excuse for pardon. After the death of his father, Sun Tianyi donated all the rare treasures collected by his father to the state. He has also become an expert in the protection of cultural relics.
When Sun Tianyi was the tomb keeper of the Xuanyuan Emperor, his respect for history and the protection of culture greatly changed the world's view of the Sun family. Sun Tianyi's dedication to the country deserves to be studied and respected by all generations of people. Only those who resist the pressure of public opinion and forge ahead can achieve nirvana rebirth.
