In Emperor Qianlong's Yuling, it is said that there is a Kowloon sword, which is five feet long and has a special hilt. It is engraved with nine golden dragons. The blade is radiant and sharp, and it can be broken by blowing hair. The scabbard is made of precious shark skin, inlaid with rubies, sapphires and Jin Gangzuan, which is priceless. Emperor Qianlong loved the "Jiulong Sword" and carried it with him. He made a will before he died.
Dongling steals treasures and digs Kowloon Sword.
It was Sun Dianying, a bandit-born warlord, who brought the Kowloon Sword back to earth. On July 2, 2008, Sun Dianying surrounded the Qing Dongling Mausoleum in Zunhua County, Hebei Province in the name of an exercise, dug up the two mausoleums of Cixi and Qianlong overnight, looted the gold, silver and jewels buried with him, and returned to the station with 20 cars loaded.
Ignorant Sun Dianying boasted that this move was the "final blow" to the Qing Dynasty after Sun Yat-sen's Revolution of 1911 and Feng Yuxiang's expulsion of Puyi, so he kept silent about the stolen treasures. He told others that Qianlong's mausoleum was magnificent, and there were many treasures buried in the coffin, the most precious of which was a string of beads around Qianlong's neck and a Kowloon sword beside him.
Filial piety to Chiang Kai-shek flows to Dai Li.
A month later, Nanjing's Central Daily reported on the front page that "bandits robbed Dongling", which shocked the whole country. People from all walks of life strongly demand that Sun Dianying be brought to justice. At this time, Sun Dianying panicked. He used the stolen goods from grave robbery to decorate the dynasty dignitaries around the country, and gave Dai Li the two biggest ones of Qianlong Zhu Chao, Song Meiling the treasure pearl in Cixi's mouth and Song Ziwen the "Golden Watermelon".
1939, Sun Dianying gave Chiang Kai-shek the "Kowloon Sword" of Kuomintang military spy chief Dai Li. When Dai Li collected the sword, it was really a rare treasure, but because he was going to visit the Central Plains, he called the head of the Beiping secret service and told him to "give the sword to He first, and then personally present it to the chairman when he returned to Beijing."
In the second year, Ma Hansan was arrested by Japanese spies in Zhangjiakou, and gave up information and "Jiulong Sword" to kill him. Japanese spy chief Takagi Tanaka got the "Jiulong Sword" and gave it to Chuan Dao Yoshiko for safekeeping. Chuan Dao Yoshiko was a princess of 14 in Qing Dynasty. She grew up in Japan and was called an Asian super spy in World War II. 1948+0945 After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, Ma Hansan immediately took people to Jiutiao, the Dongsi archway in Beijing.
On March 9th, 1946, Dai Li went to Beijing on business. Ma Hansan, then director of the Beiping Office of the Military Bureau, sent the "Jiulong Sword" and several boxes of priceless Gu Shuhua and gold and silver antiques to Dai Li's hotel to take away. Kowloon sword once again fell into the hands of Dai Li.
After the plane crash, Shen Zui put his sword in the grave.
1946 March 16 Dai Li flew to Tianjin first, and then to Qingdao. On March 17, I flew from Qingdao to Shanghai Longhua Airport. Due to the heavy rain in Shanghai, the plane could not land, so I flew to Nanjing. It was also raining heavily in Nanjing at that time, and the plane crashed in Daishan, Banqiao, Jiangning County, Xiaoxian County, Nanjing. The falling plane burned in the heavy rain for two hours. On March 2 1, when Shen Zui and others were assigned by Chiang Kai-shek to investigate the scene of the plane crash, Jiangning County Magistrate sent someone to send the remnants of the plane burning: a white jade kowloon cup of the Song Dynasty that was more than one foot high and a Kowloon sword that was five feet long. The scabbard of the hilt was burnt out, and all the nine Huang Jinlong on the hilt were gone, but the blade was still cold and sharp.
So Shen Zui put it in the coffin with Dai Li's remains and transported it back to Zhigong Hall of Linggu Temple for temporary storage. A few months later, Chiang Kai-shek personally chose a slope, and there was a small pond in front of it to bury Dai Li. Shen Zui personally supervised the construction of the mausoleum. Because Dai Li killed many * * * producers and progressives, fearing retaliation, he put away the coffin and specially poured cement slag into the tomb for reinforcement.
Dig out the residual iron again
Shen Zui's fears soon came true. 195 1 In the spring of, Dai Li's tomb was razed to the ground at the strong demand of all walks of life in Nanjing. So after the grave robbery, where did the Kowloon sword remnants go? Weicai Liu, an old man, worked in cultural protection in Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum all his life, and then worked in Linggu Temple police station. It was under his supervision that Dai Li's mausoleum was razed to the ground and destroyed. He told reporters that it took 195 1 year for several farmers in Dongshantou village in Lingqu to pry open the tomb along the cement seam of Dai Li's tomb with pickaxes. "In front of us is a red painted coffin," said Mr. Liu, opening the coffin. Only a revolver deformed by fire, the heel of a leather shoe, and the Kowloon sword. "It was a long and narrow piece of iron more than a foot long, which was badly corroded. I can only vaguely see the shape of the blade. "
Mr. Liu recalled that all these things were dumped into the pond in front of the tomb and buried, while Dai Li's coffin was transported back to the hoop bucket by farmers. Things have changed a lot. When the mystery of the Kowloon Sword was unveiled, everything was gone. Maybe it will be a good destination for this national treasure to turn into spring mud in Purple Mountain.
