Where is the original Yongle Dadian lost?

The Yongle Grand Ceremony in the middle and early Ming Dynasty can be said to be a brilliant achievement in the cultural history of China. This book comprehensively absorbs and summarizes the essence of China culture and past dynasties. It can be said that Yongle Grand Ceremony occupies an important position in the history of China. However, due to successive years of war, the Yongle Grand Ceremony suffered huge losses, and few words have been circulated so far. This is a cultural disaster in China and a shame for us in China.

After the rule of the Qing Dynasty, the Yongle Grand Ceremony was all turned over to the state treasury. The Qing emperor read it carefully and regarded it as a must-read book. With the decline of the late Qing Dynasty, foreign powers began to invade China, and then Cixi went to war with the Eight Powers. As a result, it goes without saying that Cixi fled in a hurry, and the whole Forbidden City became a plundering place of Eight-Nation Alliance.

After Eight-Nation Alliance's looting, Yongle Grand Ceremony suffered almost devastating losses. Now only a few are scattered in Japan, Britain and the United States. Eight-Nation Alliance massacred the people of China and plundered the precious wealth of Beijing at that time. Yongle Grand Ceremony was among them at this time, but due to the destruction of Eight-Nation Alliance, most of the books have disappeared, leaving only a few in exile.

According to some books of the airborne Yongle ceremony at that time, it was even used by Eight-Nation Alliance to build high walls and fortifications. Therefore, it can be said that the Yongle Grand Ceremony was completely destroyed, which is a shame for the Chinese nation and a lesson for us. Remember that if you fall behind, you will be beaten!
