Why was the Qing Xiling not stolen?

The reason why the Qing Xiling Mausoleum was not stolen was that it was difficult for grave robbers to get in, and they thought that the emperor of the Qing Xiling Mausoleum was not very rich.

1, it is difficult for grave robbers to enter.

Qing Xiling was built in Yongzheng period. Yongzheng thought that the geomantic omen and soil conditions of the Qing Dongling Mausoleum were not good, so it was not suitable for use as a mausoleum. Finally, he chose Taipingyu Mountain in Yizhou, Baoding as his eternal home.

The place where the Qing Xiling is located has a unique terrain. Above is Yuanbao Mountain, below is the main peak of Yongning Mountain, in front is Yishui River, behind is Yongning Mountain, and around is Gaihua Mountain, which is equivalent to being located in the mountains. Not only is it not easy to be found, but grave robbers are also difficult to get in.

Grave robbers thought that the emperor of Qing Xiling was not very rich.

Compared with Qianlong and Cixi, Yongzheng is very low-key. Whether it is Sun Dianying's tomb robbery in 1928 or Zhang's tomb robbery in 1945, the first choice is Qing Dongling, because everyone knows that Qing Dongling has money and can get more, so few people will go to Qing Xiling when Qing Dongling exists.
