The aragonite terrace is divided into three layers. It shrinks layer by layer from bottom to top, and the storey height is correspondingly reduced. The appearance forms a step-by-step ending, giving people a sense of stability. There is a gate in the south of the lower terrace, decorated with vermilion paint and oil tendons, nine door nails, and a stone chamber in the door, which can be accessed by people.

The stone platform is carved with geometric patterns of sea water and river teeth, shallow relief sea water and high relief river teeth. The two patterns alternate with each other, with ups and downs.

The top of each layer of the stone platform is slightly concave downward, so that the relief pictures of each layer overlap each other slightly. This subtle treatment naturally connects the three layers of relief together, and drainage holes are set on each side of each layer to make the drainage of the concave part unblocked. The location selection is very ingenious. They are all in the cave of Jiangya without any trace.

In addition, on the stage, there is a bronze gilded Golden Hall of the country and mountains. The plane of the golden hall is also square, one deep and one wide. On each side, there are a slot and four water chestnut partition doors. The partition skirt board is engraved with Shenglong, the sash ring board is engraved with Baoxiang flowers, the double dragon Fangxin Xuan color painting is shallow engraved on the front brace, and the Fu lotus is engraved on the four column bases.

The golden hall has double eaves. The upper layer is round with sharp points, Anbao roof, and the lower layer is square waist eaves. Four berm ridges are equipped with small animals, and the rear part is connected with the surrounding ridge. There are bucket arches under the eaves of both layers.

The whole golden hall has a solemn shape and excellent workmanship.

Strictly speaking, the style and texture of Jindian and Shitai are different. One is rich and elegant, the other is simple and natural, which is the artistic technique of comparison.

At the same time, the scale of the golden hall is excellent. The total height of the Wenshi platform is three and a half meters, of which the first floor is the highest, about two meters. The upper two floors are relatively short, which is only one and a half meters together. It is just suitable for people to stand on the first floor and open the partition fan of the golden hall to place incense.

"Sheji" and "Jiangshan" are synonymous with the state, while the "sheji Jiangshan golden palace" gives the state an image. In addition to the "sheji altar" on the west side of the Forbidden City, the "sheji Jiangshan golden palace" in front of the emperor's bedroom is to highlight the emperor's dignity and supreme rights.

In the Qianqing palace, the golden leaf is carved with two dragons playing with pearls. The golden Double Dragons painted with asphalt powder inside and outside the hall, as well as the coiled dragon round table on the ceiling, are vivid. The ground is plastered with gold bricks, polished bricks and painted with tung oil. It is as smooth and delicate as ink jade.

Today, the layout of the hall is basically according to the original state of the Qianlong period. In the center of the main room is a square platform. On the platform are the golden lacquer carved dragon throne and the golden lacquer carved dragon screen, which symbolize the imperial power. In front of the throne are luduan, crane and incense tube. In front of the platform, there are four burning sandalwood, copper tire thread pinching enamel incense ovens, which are arranged on several hardwood racks.

On several cases on the East-West shelf, there are astronomical instruments, Yi ware and other objects.

Before and after the ground platform, there are four tall red sandalwood carved dragon seat mirrors with fine carving benevolence and vivid composition. They were made during the reign of Guangxu. There is also a big dragon cabinet with jade ultimatum and real records in the hall.

In the middle of the hall, the plaque of "Zhengda Guangming" written by Emperor Shunzhi was hung high. In view of the lessons of his father Kangxi's establishment of the crown prince and the struggle of his sons to win the throne, Yongzheng created a new method of saving the monarch, that is, the emperor handed down the imperial edict and sealed it in a box. One was placed behind the plaque of "Zhengda Guangming" in the Qianqing palace, which was the highest place in the palace, and the other was hidden by the emperor for comparison in the future.

When you enter Qianqing palace, you will first see two pairs of couplets.

The first couplet comes from Shangshu · zhongzhuzhigao and Shangshu · gaotaomo: to show the integrity of all nations, be careful to talk and practice forever, which means that only when the appearance hall is correct, can all nations come to the dynasty. Only when you and others speak and act carefully, can you rule for a long time.

The second couplet comes from Shangshu · Junya and Shangshu · taijiaxia: Hongfu's five codes are not light civil, but difficult. It means: vigorously promote the three cardinal principles and five permanent principles in the world. Don't despise what people are engaged in, but really understand the difficulties.

The meaning of the whole couplet: the first couplet refers to the integrity in appearance, and the second couplet refers to the ideological direction. It is the motto of Emperor Kangxi to encourage future emperors to be honest.

The second couplet, the first couplet, comes from Shangshu · zhongzhuzhigao and Shangshu · Hongfan: it is extremely important for the emperor to be tolerant and benevolent; The second couplet comes from "Shang Shu · Shun Dian" and "Shang Shu · Shuo Ming": only essence and only Tao accumulate in Jue bow

This couplet means: Be kind to others and widely establish the law of Zhongzheng; Wholeheartedly focus on governing the country, and the cultivation of moral quality is accumulated by others and themselves.

The meaning to be expressed is to first talk about the governance of others, and then talk about yourself. It is the admonition of Qianlong to encourage future generations to unite their subjects and rule.

These two couplets are from the calligraphy of Emperor Qianlong. They are invaluable. When you take them outside, each pair is no worse than Lin Xi's collection.

However, Lin Xi's current wealth is only appreciated from the perspective of appreciation, without desire and greed.

After entering the Qianqing palace, Wan Ziying told you many allusions. The first is the South veranda of the Qianqing palace, which is known as the "South study", where the young Emperor Kangxi removed aobai.

Xuanye, the emperor of Kangxi, was eight years old. He was still young. According to the last order of emperor Shunzhi, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, aobai and other four ministers assisted him. Aobai, with a strong character, gradually gained the control of the imperial government, wantonly eliminated dissidents and ran the Imperial government. Even when Kangxi was the age when he should be in power, he refused to hand over his real power, and often contradicted Kangxi in the Imperial Hall, Even in front of Kangxi, he scolded the Minister of Manchu Dynasty.

Therefore, Kangxi decided to eradicate the forces of the Aobama, but because his party was in the court, he kept without showing feelings, secretly scheduling and waiting for the opportunity.

One day, Kangxi summoned aobai temporarily in the South study. As soon as aobai stepped into the hall door and saw Kangxi sitting on the throne, he heard a loud cry: "aobai stabbed with a knife..."

Before he could be surprised and angry, a heavy hook beside him made him fall forward involuntarily. Immediately, a dozen strong young guards pressed on him, making him out of breath.

Aobai struggled to raise his face, only to see the soap boots of young Kangxi standing firmly in front of him.

Since then, the government returned to Kangxi.

The second allusion comes from the famous renyin palace change.

In the history of more than 500 years since the completion of the Forbidden City, the emperor has never been assassinated by assassins. However, there is an emperor who was almost killed by palace ladies. He is the Jiajing emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Because it happened in the year of renyin, it is called renyin palace change.

When Jiajing was in power, he ignored the government and sought immortality and alchemy in order to live forever. He searched for people's wealth everywhere, resulting in public resentment. The people called him "Jiajing" emperor, that is, everything valuable in his family was cleaned by the emperor.

The emperor Jiajing not only hated him, but also his palace maids, because he was obscene. The palace maids were often devastated by spirit and body. When they couldn't bear it, they decided to fight with death.

According to the law at that time, those who committed the crime of killing the king were to be executed late, but the maids knew it. Instead of being tortured to death, they would do justice. So one night, while the emperor was asleep, they planned to strangle the emperor Jiajing with a rope, but it didn't go with people's wishes. In a hurry, the maids tied the rope into a dead knot and fell short.

Later, the palace maids were arrested. Emperor Jiajing woke up after receiving first aid from the imperial doctor, but he was frightened. It never occurred to him that those palace maids who were obedient and weak to him dared to revolt collectively.

Since then, Emperor Jiajing did not dare to live in the Qianqing palace, moved to Xiyuan at that time, and did not move back until the day before his death.

After hearing this allusion, others just regarded it as a story, but Lin Xi sank in his heart and sighed secretly. I don't know how many hermits and emperors pursued the art of immortality, but they were finally harmed by it and turned into a piece of loess.

The world believed that the art of immortality was illusory, a means of deception by magicians and the delusion of emperors. But only after Lin Xi experienced the mythological era and witnessed miracles with his own eyes did he know that immortality was not illusory.

But even so, from the mythological age to now, there are only two elderly people, and they have paid a heavy price. If they had no other intention, what is the use of making this person live like a man and a ghost like a ghost?

It's better to be a mortal and an ordinary person.

Thinking about this, Lin Xi felt that the burden on his shoulders was like a huge stone - the truth of all causes and consequences was even more urgent. He couldn't help but have a layer of haze lingering in his heart. He urgently wanted to know what his relationship with all causes and consequences was?

He spit out the turbid air in his chest and looked at the face of his family in front of him. He was amiable, respectable and lovely. He quietly shook his head, put aside his thoughts and told everyone: "the reason why Qianqing palace is important lies in its own role, which is also a big secret. Do you know what it is..."

Xiao 11 asked naively, "Uncle Qiao, what is it..."

Wan Ziying said with a smile: "besides being the emperor's bedroom, Qianqing palace will also hold a family banquet here. It is also the place where the emperor will go to mourn after his death. Another important purpose is that behind the upright and bright plaque, there is a box with a secret crown prince. After the emperor dies, take out the box and open the imperial edict, and then he can announce the new emperor's accession to the throne

The crowd looked at the upright and bright plaque. Under the plaque, there were five Tuan dragons in different forms. They looked at the plaque on the top of their heads. There was another blue dragon ball on the top of the Tuan faucet in the middle. The word "Saint" was written in the dragon ball, setting off the majesty of the plaque.

I have to say that Wan Ziying is not an expert, but after all, he is half a landlord. He knows the allusions of the Forbidden City in detail and easily reveals the purpose of the Qianqing palace. Unexpectedly, Lin Xi shook his head: "aunt Wan, this is not the secret I'm talking about..."

Wan Ziying was stunned and seemed to be asked.

Seeing Lin Xi's arrogance, Tong Yan immediately retorted: "you'll sell the key here. We don't want to hear it if you like to say it or pull it down. Mom, one by one, let's go to other places and ignore him..."

Lin Xi felt extremely embarrassed and wanted to find a place to get in. Tong Yan, a girl liar, didn't give him face. If everyone wasn't there, she really wanted to reward her with "fried meat with bamboo shoots" and let her know that society was dangerous.
