After losing his country, Tran Thuc Bao was still fully treated by Sui Van De Duong Kien, so every day he lived in a dream, at the age of 52 he died in Luoyang. Many historians questioned whether, during these years of dreamy life, Tran Thuc said he often remembered the beautiful silhouette, the beauty that was said to be the famous painter Truong Le Hoa. Illustration You are from a poor background According to historical records, Truong Le Hoa came from a military family in Yangzhou, Jiangnan. However, in the life of her parents, the family fell into poverty and poverty, Le Hoa’s father and brother had to go to knit mats to earn a living. At the age of 10, Truong Le Hoa, thanks to her beautiful face, was recruited to the palace as a maidservant, serving Prince Tran Thuc Bao. In fact, the world has been in turmoil for a long time, the palace maids who are recruited to serve the royal family will not be bound by too many regulations, and their status is not limited, even a farmer’s son can enter the palace to work. job. Therefore, Truong Le Hoa seized this opportunity. Not long into the palace, with her heavenly beauty, Truong Le Hoa was noticed by Crown Prince Tran Thuc Bao and became happy. Because of constant love, Truong Le Hoa quickly became pregnant and gave birth to a fourth son for the Crown Prince, named Tran Tham. Right after that, Le Hoa gave birth to the 8th child for Tran Thuc Bao, Tran Trang. When Tran Thuc Bao succeeded and became the emperor of the country, Tran Truong Le Hoa was given the title of noble concubine, with great power, even surpassing the empress. When Tran Thuc Bao was injured, he did not even meet the queen, leaving only the noble concubine Truong Le Hoa to serve, enough to see how much this beauty was loved. Not stopping there, Tran Thuc Bao was so delusional that he even brought Truong Le Hoa to the royal court. Originally, it was stipulated that the concubine was absolutely not allowed to participate in the main court, if she violated the law, she would not be spared. However, at that time, the world was in turmoil, and the rules were no longer strict. Consort entered the court with the emperor hoàng Truong Le Hoa not only leisurely entered the court, but when she entered the court, she did not stand beside the emperor like other great ministers. This beauty sat on the emperor’s lap, sometimes the two even cuddled each other, making it difficult for the courtiers to endure. The worst part was, because she often had to go to court to listen to political stories, gradually Truong Le Hoa began to get involved in court affairs. She relied on Tran Thuc Bao’s favor, openly supported a group of trusted mandarins, and eliminated those who were against her will. After that, Le Hoa also invited the sorcerer to enter the royal palace to set up an altar to sacrifice, to display enough for superstitions to fascinate the emperor, and to be believed by the emperor. Since then, she has been swayed by the nobles, blatantly criticizing, arbitrarily conferring titles, accepting bribes, drawing factions. Just like that, the court was no longer disciplined, and soon it was disordered. When the Sui led troops to attack the Southern Dynasty, Tan Vuong Duong Quang surrounded the palace. Tran Thuc Bao couldn’t run in time, he only had to lead Truong Le Hoa to hide under a dry well in Ngu Uyen. But in the end, both were still found and captured by the Sui army. According to historical records, when he saw Truong Le Hoa, Duong Quang was also captivated by her unparalleled beauty, intending to take her home as his concubine. However, Chief historian Cao Quynh saw this and quickly intervened, saying that Truong Le Hoa was no different from Dat Ky, a demon who fascinates the king, holding back will face disaster. Hearing that, Duong Quang, although deeply mourning for the beautiful woman, was still more important to the national affairs, so the wrong person killed Truong Le Hoa. It can be said that, because it is so beautiful, Truong Le Hoa from the most favored place finally has a taste of jade. This is a predetermined outcome. However, in retrospect, historians admit that, even if Truong Le Hoa did not participate in the main court, Tran Thuc Bao would still lose the battle, Nam Tran would still perish. In fact, Nam Tran was originally a small country, economically and militarily unable to compete with the Sui dynasty. Only about the war. Emperor Van De went to fight a battle and sent out 50,000 troops, while the whole of Nam Tran, the demographics of all, young and old, were only 200,000, so what can we do to fight back? Consort Quy was originally a maid, even though she had no children, she was still favored by the Qianlong King Despite her small background, Cao Thi has outstanding appearance and gentle personality. She was selected by Emperor Yongzheng to serve in the palace to serve Bao Than Vuong Hoang Lich, also the later Qian Long Emperor. Not long after, she continued to be promoted by Ung Chinh Emperor to Trac Phuc, the position only after Di Phuc promoted to Phu Sat Thi. After Emperor Ung Chinh died, Bao Than Vuong Hoang Lich succeeded him. At this time, although she still had not given birth to any children for him, Cao Thi was still made a concubine, only under Queen Phu Sat. Even after that, the entire Bao yao clan with the Cao family name was raised and merged into the Manchurian Tuong Hoang Ky, the identity of the Bao robe was completely washed, helping to increase the position and status of Consort Cao Quy in the harem. more than ever. Since being married to Emperor Qianlong, Consort Cao Quy has always received favors, which makes Empress Phu Sat very jealous. Whenever she was sick, the Emperor was always very worried and gave her the best herbs. During a time when Consort Cao Quy fell seriously ill, Emperor Qianlong was very heartbroken. In order to make her happy, Emperor Qianlong issued an edict to elevate her to the rank of Imperial concubine, which was also the first time in his harem to have this concubine status. Unfortunately, Hoang Quy consort Cao Thi could not survive and died at the age of 34. Emperor Qian Long mourned, often wrote poems for her and called her “Tue Hien Hoang Quy consort”. Besides Hieu Hien Thuan Empress, Tue Hien Hoang Quy is the only concubine that makes Emperor Qianlong over the years still keep writing such memorial poems. After Du Lang was completed, Imperial Consort Tue Hien Hoang was transferred to be buried here, next to Queen Hieu Hien Thuan and Queen Triet Man Hoang. She is also one of the rare 5 concubines who were buried with the Qianlong Emperor in Du Lang’s palace. And yet, later, when Emperor Gia Khanh ascended the throne, changed the family name “Cao Thi” of the royal concubine Tue Hien Hoang to “Cao Giai Thi”, classified as one of the Manchu nobles.

The money in Dai Thanh’s national treasury was spent like a waterfall by the Empress Dowager, even when she died, she still brought a large amount of precious gold and silver with her, among them, the most precious was the night pearl. placed in Cixi’s mouth. Such luxury, but surprisingly, it was the Da Minh Chau that later caused disaster, also because of it and the burial properties that Tu Hi’s grave was stolen, most of the treasures in the grave also fell. into someone else’s hands. The tomb thief of Empress Dowager Cixi is a famous tomb thief once in modern history – Ton Dien Anh. In the spring of 1928, Sun Dien Anh ordered to go ahead and besiege the Malay valley. On the way, he repeatedly encountered the magnificence of temples and shrines at Thanh Dong mausoleum, and thought of stealing graves in his heart. Under the name of research, Ton Dien Anh sent the guards of the mausoleum to another place and began to commit the act of stealing his own grave. Sun Dien Anh plundered Emperor Qianlong’s Du Tomb and Ding Dong Tomb in the Putu Valley of Empress Dowager Cixi. First, Sun Dien Anh blew up the door to Ding Dong Tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi. He was surprised to see that the body of Empress Dowager Cixi after decades of burial still did not decompose. After he calmed down, Sun Dien Anh was stunned by the glittering jewels piled up in the tomb. According to records in history books, the burial and body of Empress Dowager Cixi are mostly precious jewels and ivory in the world. Among them, the most precious is the Da Minh Chau tablet that Tu Hi holds in his mouth. In the book “The Heist of the Tomb of Cixi”, it was recorded that the nightingale weighed about 133.4 grams. It is worth more than 10 million taels of silver, if converted into today’s currency, that is more than 800 million yuan (equivalent to nearly 3,000 billion dong). As to what research the Ye Ming Chau Cixi had in his mouth was made, there were many disagreements. Some people think that it could be a fluorescent stone that can glow, but many people think that the Da Minh Chau is a round natural diamond, which is also the diamond we often call it today. Origin of the Nightingale King Shah Jahan of the Mughal Empire (located in the Indian Subcontinent) once lost a Mughal Empire diamond that was about 350 years old. That diamond weighed about 787 carats, but about 300 before it was cut into pieces. That year, Abbati of the Kingdom of Afghanistan undertook eight expeditions to India, capturing a portion of those precious diamonds. Between 1760 and 1762, this treasure was donated to Emperor Qianlong through a mission. Later, Empress Dowager Cixi took over, and this rare treasure also fell into her hands. Cixi loved it very much, decided to bring it to the grave with her, but in the end, it was stolen by Ton Dien Anh. How did the Nightingale fall into the hands of “Oil King” Rockefeller? After Ton Dien Anh stole the Da Minh Chau from Thanh Dong Tomb, he gave it to Tong My Linh. Tong My Linh loves this pearl very much, so she put it in her shoes to bring to important parties. Once when Tong My Linh attended a party in America, during the party a rich American businessman saw a pearl on Tong My Linh’s shoe and expressed his love for it. , hoping that Tong My Linh will sell the pearl to him. This businessman is the world-famous “King of Oil” Rockefeller. Rockefeller’s influence at that time was not small, he gave many conditions that made people fascinated. Finally, Tong My Linh also sold the night pearl to Rockefeller. To this day, the night pearl is likely still in the collection of the Rockefeller family. Not only the Dowager Empress Dowager Cixi, but perhaps many treasures related to Empress Dowager Cixi are also lost. Rockefeller is the famous “king of oil” around the world. For example, in 1900, when a coalition of eight countries invaded China, burning Yuanming garden, stealing a large amount of treasure. Those precious pearls are like that of the night pearl, I don’t know when I can return to the ancient country. *According to Sohu (China)

In October of the following year, her body was buried in Dong Lang. It is rumored that when Empress Dowager Cixi was buried, inside her coffin and inside her tomb were buried countless jewels and ivory, arranged in mountains after mountains. It was also because of that number of treasures of inter-city value that Tu Xi’s grave was infiltrated and plundered by Sun Dien Anh, creating the famous “Dong Lang tomb robbery” in Chinese history. In July 1928, about 20 years after Empress Dowager Cixi was buried, a branch of warlords led by Sun Dien Anh came to destroy the queen’s eternal sleep in the palace, while another branch advanced. Emperor Qianlong’s mausoleum. They broke open coffins, plundered treasures, and sent a large number of precious items to foreign countries, causing great damage to the history of Chinese artifacts. At that time, the army led by Ton Dien Anh was an army branch sent by the Nationalist Army to destroy the bandits. On the way, Ton Dien Anh was attracted by the magnificence and wealth of the Dong mausoleum, because he wanted to rob the gold and silver in it, he devised a way to steal the grave. To hide the eyes and ears of others, Sun Dien Anh used the excuse that the army needed to practice, sent the small group of soldiers guarding the mausoleum to another place, and then began to prepare to carry out his theft. Sun Dien Anh is holding a relic taken from the Tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi. The entrance to the tomb of the Royal Family is very secret and discreet, just to prevent tomb thieves from stealing. Initially, Ton Dien Anh’s group could not find the entrance to the underground palace, they dug around, demolished many places but still could not find the entrance. Later, when they heard that an old man had built a mausoleum before, they knew that behind the Ming Lou there was a “silent institute”, specializing in recruiting dumb workers to build and repair the Qing mausoleum. Behind the lapis lazuli relief wall on the north side of the courtyard is the entrance to the palace where Emperor Qianlong is buried. Tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi is different, you have to go to the door of an ancient cave at the foot of Minh long before you can enter the palace. Whether it is Emperor Qianlong’s tomb or Empress Dowager Cixi’s tomb, the entrance is extremely solid, the “diamond” doors are not easy to open. The group of Ton Dien Anh people with greedy minds directly used dynamite to blow up the entrance, so both tombs have traces of being destroyed by explosives. Sun Dien Anh led a group of bandits to excavate the tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi, entering the palace earlier than the group that robbed Emperor Qianlong’s tomb. The group of grave robbers carried things out of the tomb of Empress Dowager Cixi. After they violently destroyed Cixi’s coffin, they were dazzled by countless gold and silver jewels in it. Therefore, the bandits frantically plundered, looted and buried the treasures in the coffin, and Tu Xi’s body was also destroyed. According to the rehabilitation staff, there was an incision in the mouth of the Empress Dowager, which was caused when Ton Dien Anh wanted to steal the Da Ming Chau in her mouth, even personal items such as hats. phoenix, robes… were all robbed, and Cixi’s body was then thrown next to the coffin. Emperor Qianlong’s palace was also seriously damaged, the underground palace already had standing water inside, after the treasure was robbed, the bones of the Qianlong Emperor were also lost along the water. As for the remains of Empress Hieu Hien and the three concubines, they were also lost in one place, only Queen Hieu Nghi was preserved because the body had not rotted. After the incident was revealed, the whole country’s public opinion boiled, especially the remaining descendants of the royal family of the Manchu dynasty, they were extremely angry when the ancestor’s tomb was stolen, the ancestor’s body was destroyed. Pray for strict punishment for stealing the grave of Ton Dien Anh. But Ton Dien Anh, because he wanted to get rid of the crime, took the stolen treasures to be scattered everywhere, on the contrary, he also found a dignified excuse to justify that: “The Manchus harmed our ancestors of three generations, stole and destroyed The grave is just for the sake of revenge, which is a reluctant thing to do.” Then, under the reconciliation of the parties, the tomb thief Dong Lang Ton Dien Anh also escaped punishment. After the grave robbery, Ton Dien Anh lived as an outlaw for more than 20 years, was finally captured by the liberation army, and died in a war crime prison in 1947. Son of Ton Dien Anh The only son of Ton Dien Anh, Ton Thien Nghia, took a completely different path from his father. He is a talented person, having held the position of Principal of Xi’an Foreign Language School, Vice President of China Translators Association, Vice President of China Association for International Education Exchange… With his contributions and dedication, Ton Thien Nghia is considered as a person who is “industrious, devoted, rigorously academically researched”.
