We all know that in ancient times, people in high positions more or less sought some immortality in order to maintain their power, so that their power could last for a long time. Speaking of this topic, I think everyone must first think of Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng, yingzheng as the first emperor of the feudal system in history, not only has supreme power, but also has absolutely high honor. Therefore, he wanted to keep this power all the time, and there was a story of Xu Fudongdu going to find the elixir of immortality.
As a result, it is obvious that he did not succeed, but cast this honor into the terracotta warriors today. In the next dynasty, there will be people who will pay energy for immortality, she is the main figure we are talking about today, Cixi in the late Qing Dynasty, before she died, in order to continue her life, she drank Wang Batang, and after her death, she was stuffed with a night pearl in her mouth, what was the reason for this? First of all, we must start with the life of Cixi:
Cixi, the Yehenara clan, the main ruler of the late Qing Dynasty, but also because of this identity, she lived an incomparably luxurious life, even one of her birthday banquets, there are a full 108 courses, which is the famous Manchu Han seat of the Qing Dynasty. Looking at these mountains and treasures, people have to sigh that there is a reason for the demise of the Qing Dynasty. Imagine, in the face of such a powerful and rich life, who can abandon it? Even Cixi was no exception.
Later, when she was sick, she asked people to look for a cure everywhere, and later heard that drinking Wang Ba Tang could continue her life, so she let people find it. The result can be imagined, it did not have a big effect, and finally withdrew from the stage of historical politics. As for the said after the breath was cut off, the mouth was stuffed with the pearl of the night. It turned out that someone had robbed her tomb after Cixi's death and found out. We all know that Cixi, as a person who is the center of political power, must be buried with him after death.
Sure enough, when the tomb robbers dug up cixi's tomb, they found that her body was still the same as before, without any decay, and it turned out that her mouth actually contained a night pearl, which was offered by the envoys of the Western Regions in the early years, and explained that this night pearl could protect the body from decay. Also, as such a powerful person, how could she tolerate a change in her appearance after death, but later, due to the intervention of the tomb robbers, she was no different from ordinary people.
