Chapter 280 The Location of the Bridge (Please Subscribe)

After finally waiting for an hour, Chuhe and Xu Mingying looked over immediately.

But what surprised them was that the computer displayed neither hills nor mountains.

It turned out to be the Ming Tombs!
When it comes to the Ming Tombs, Chuhe certainly knows and recognizes them.

Located at the foot of Tianshou Mountain in Kyoto, it covers an area of ​​about 120 square kilometers and is about [-] kilometers away from Tiananmen Square.

The construction of Changling began in May of the seventh year of Yongle and ended when Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was buried in Siling.

During this period, which lasted for more than 230 years, thirteen emperors' tombs, seven concubines' tombs, and one eunuch's tomb were built.

A total of thirteen emperors, 23 empresses, two princes, more than thirty concubines, and two eunuchs were buried.

Among them, what Chuhe had always been curious about was which two eunuchs were buried there, and they could be buried here with the emperor's tomb.

Looking at the computer, Chuhe found that the location of the Ming Tombs was not much different from the one on the map.

The Ming Tombs are located in a small basin surrounded by mountains on three sides in the east, west and north.

The mausoleum area is surrounded by mountains, while the central part is a plain.

There is a winding river in front of the mausoleum, with beautiful mountains and rivers, and pleasant scenery. It can be said that this tomb site is very well chosen.

As a geography teacher, Xu Mingying certainly knows the Ming Tombs. He explained: "The thirteen imperial tombs have formed a complete system, a grand scale, and a majestic mausoleum complex. It is a good 'Ji soil', so at that time, it was also chosen by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty as the 'Wannian Shouyu' for the construction of the imperial mausoleum."

"But, the Mingling Mausoleum was damaged before." Xu Mingying continued.

Chuhe didn't know much about this point, so he asked, "Teacher, tell me."

"At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Taizu rose in the northeast, threatening the safety of the Ming Dynasty. Some people said that the reason why the Qing army was strong was related to his ancestral tomb, because the ancestral tomb of their Jin people was in Fangshan. It can be wiped out.”

"Then Emperor Chongzhen sent people to destroy Fangshan Jinling in the second year of Tianqi, and built the Guandi Temple to suppress it. As a result, after the Qing soldiers entered the pass, they took the same recovery method and destroyed the Ming Tomb. Only in the 50th year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, In order to win over the Han people, the Ming Tomb was ordered to be repaired, but during the Republic of China, local gentry competed for property rights, and the Ming Tomb was destroyed again.”

As Xu Mingying said, she was heartbroken: "If you fight a war, you will fight a war. What's the point of digging up someone's ancestral grave!"

Chu He didn't expect such a thing to happen, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "The people of the Ming Dynasty probably did this because they really had no choice against the Qing soldiers."

Chu He looked at the map and asked Xu Mingying: "Teacher, where is the red dot?"

"Here, let me take a look." Xu Mingying guessed the distance on the map and finally said, "It should be in a small river."

"In the river." Chuhe hesitated and thought.

Xu Mingying didn't understand why Chuhe got this map for no reason, so she asked, "Where did you get this map?"

"Teacher, to tell you the truth, this map is a treasure map." Chu He said with a smile.

"Just brag to me." Of course Xu Mingying would not believe Chuhe's nonsense, "Okay, I've found the map you're looking for, so what else can you do?"

"No more, thank you teacher!" Chu He immediately took the map and ran away.

After leaving the office, he immediately called Xu Yiming.

If he wanted to act in the capital, then only Xu Yiming could help him.

"Hey, that's right, boy, you actually brought back the "Bodhisattva in the Womb Sutra"." After Xu Yiming answered the phone, he praised Chuhe.

"Tell you something, do you know the Nine Dragons Jade Cup?" Chu He asked.

Xu Yiming was stunned for a moment, "Of course I know, do you know where it is?"

"Yes, in Mingling, do you trust me?" Chuhe worried that Xu Yiming didn't quite believe this fact.

"Why don't you believe it, of course you do." Xu Yiming was a little excited: "How did you find so many clues, tell me."

"Of course I can't tell you this, but I can assure you that it is absolutely legal." Chuhe was worried about what would happen if he was accidentally caught.

"That's fine, come to Kyoto as soon as possible, and we'll discuss it later." Before hanging up the phone, Xu Yiming said again: "I've reimbursed all the air tickets and so on."

Afterwards, Chuhe immediately booked a high-speed rail ticket and went directly to Kyoto.

Not even a few clothes.

After arriving at the station, Xu Yiming went to pick him up in person.

After getting in the car, Xu Yiming asked Chuhe: "Shall we go to Mingling now?"

"Yes, let's go." Chuhe nodded.

Soon, the car rushed to Mingling's residence.

After getting off the car, Chuhe and Xu Yiming came to Ming Changling.

The Changling Tomb of the Ming Dynasty has the largest building scale among the Ming Tombs, the earliest construction time, and the best-preserved ground buildings.

It is the ancestral mausoleum of the Ming Tombs, and it is the joint burial mausoleum of Zhu Di and Empress Xu.

The mausoleum palace building of Changling covers an area of ​​about 12 square meters.

Xu Yiming stood at the door, looked at the building in front of him and said, "The layout of the Changling Tomb of the Ming Dynasty is in the shape of a front and a circle at the back, and the square part in front is composed of three courtyards connected front and back."

Walking all the way, soon came to another mausoleum.

"This is the Ming Dingling Mausoleum. It is the tomb of Zhu Yijun, Emperor Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the tomb in Wanli. His two empresses are also buried here. You see, this tomb is located at the foot of Dayu Mountain, southwest of Changling. It is shown in the map. Also southwest."

Xu Yiming seemed to be very familiar with the Ming Tombs. When he talked about the Ming Tombs, he was like a tour guide.

Looking at the map, Chuhe found that the distance was too far, so he had to say to Xu Yiming, "Why don't we rent a bicycle, it's too far."

Xu Yiming glanced at the bicycles in the garden, then nodded, agreeing.

The two pedaled their bicycles and rushed to the middle red dot on the map.

But after going there, they found that the river was not as clean as they thought.

The water in a river is so dark that it is really unbearable.

Chuhe said speechlessly: "Isn't this protected by someone?"

"There should be. It's just that the number of guests in the Mingling Scenic Area has decreased in recent years, so the management standards have become less and less adequate." Xu Yiming also felt very helpless.

Chuhe came to the river and wanted to see the approximate distance of the river so as to find the specific location of the Nine Dragons Jade Cup.

However, the condition of this river is far more difficult to find than Chuhe imagined. Chuhe searched for a long time, but couldn't find a suitable place.

"This is how to do ah?"

Chu He scratched his head and held on to the edge of the bridge.

Huh, by the bridge?

Chuhe looked at the small bridge here and asked Xu Yiming: "Brother Yiming, don't you think the location of this bridge is the red dot on the map?"
