A strange woman from a generation! Why was the mausoleum of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang built outside the Feng Shui Wall of the Eastern Tomb of Qing Dynasty?
Anyone who has watched Emperor Kangxi knows that the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang had a great influence on Kangxi. She had experienced three emperors successively. From Huang Taiji to even Kangxi, this woman's life can be said to be very great. Those who are attentive may know that in the current Qing Dynasty imperial mausoleum area, the mausoleum of Queen Xiaozhuang was built outside the Feng Shui wall of the Qing Dong Tomb. So why is this?
First of all, we are talking about the ancient people’s emphasis on morality and secularity. We know that the world was not very stable after Huang Taiji's death, and Emperor Shunzhi was very young at that time. In order to stabilize the situation in the court, Queen Mother Xiaozhuang had to marry Dorgon. In fact, in this regard, this woman is very great. Because no matter what, we focus on the overall situation of the world and do not pay attention to personal honors.
In fact, ancient people attached great importance to religious etiquette. Because the status of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang is quite special. She married Dorgon when there was already Emperor Shunzhi at that time, and she married Dorgon when there was already Emperor Shunzhi at that time. The Queen Mother said that she felt that she had lost the face of the royal bloodline, so she felt that she had no face to face her ancestors before making the decision. Originally, her identity and status were to be buried with Huang Taiji, but considering this factor, she asked her grandson to bury her outside the Dongling Tomb.
From the perspective of our descendants, Queen Mother Xiaozhuang was really a very wise woman in her life. Her existence can be said to be the backbone of the Qing Dynasty, and there must be a certain reason for this. The Qing Dynasty experienced several disasters, and with the support of this woman, Kangxi was able to smooth things over and clean up the internal chaos. Of course, the above is just personal conjecture. There is no such record in official history, so we can just follow the historical facts.
