Chapter 238 Shanhaiguan Commander Gaodi, Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang and Tianyu Bracelet.

Opening Shanhaiguan, the one who killed me in China--Wu Sangui, the commander-in-chief of the Ningyuan regiment, and Gao Di, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan!

A few blood-red characters pierced Chu Ang's eyes like knives, which looked particularly shocking.

"Gao Di?" Liu Yun's pretty face showed a hint of confusion, "I do know Wu Sangui, but who is this Gao Di?"

Chu Ang explained with a smile, "Gaodi, whose name is Hanchong, was the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan in the late Ming Dynasty, but there are not many records in history, because he didn't have many achievements to show off in his military life, but he was deeply involved in an influential event. A major event in the direction of history, that is, the entry of the Qing army..."

Liu Yun blinked, "Isn't Wu Sangui the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan?"

While looking at Baoxi, Chu Ang explained to Liu Yun, "Many people now have the impression that Wu Sangui, who sacrificed Shanhaiguan and led the Qing army to enter the customs, is the general soldier of Shanhaiguan. This perception is wrong..."

"At that time, Wu Sangui's actual job was the training commander of the Ningyuan Regiment, responsible for the entire defense of Ningyuan, and Gao Di was the commander of Shanhaiguan at that time..."

"In the 17th year of Chongzhen (AD 1644), Chuang Wang Li Zicheng besieged Sijiu City, and Emperor Chongzhen issued three consecutive orders to summon Wu Sangui to King Jingqin..."

"Wu Sangui set off after receiving the edict. When he arrived at Shanhaiguan, he joined forces with Gaodi. The two reached a tacit understanding and advanced and retreated together..."

"The last four or nine cities were captured by Li Zicheng, and Chongzhen hanged Meishan to death. So far, in 1368, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor in Jinling, passed on to the 276th year, and the Ming Dynasty perished in [-] years of Guozuo..."

At this moment, Chu Ang's complexion was particularly complicated. Ming Taizu proclaimed himself emperor and worshiped the jade bowl, which witnessed Zhu Yuanzhang's achievements in expelling the Hulu and rebuilding China.

However, this dynasty with the title of "the most righteous country" is still dead!

"..."

Chu Ang shook his head, sighed, and continued, "After Chongzhen's death, Wu Sangui decided to surrender to Li Zicheng, so he led his troops to Sijiu City!"

"But Gaodi didn't go. He stayed in Shanhaiguan and continued to guard Shanhaiguan with Tang Tong (a general who surrendered from the Ming Dynasty) sent by Li Zicheng to take over the defense!"

"However, on the way Wu Sangui rushed to Sijiu City, he learned that his home was copied by Li Zicheng, his father Wu Xiang was also arrested, and of course, his concubine Chen Yuanyuan was also robbed..."

"Therefore, Wu Sangui immediately returned to Shanhaiguan, joined forces with Gaodi Liyingwai, defeated Tang Tong, and regained Shanhaiguan..."

"Afterwards, it was Wu Sangui who took the lead in surrendering to the Qing, and then cooperated with Gaodi to defeat Li Zicheng, and the two became Qing ministers together!"

"Because the major historical event that led the Qing army to enter the customs was led by Wu Sangui. After the two surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Wu Sangui continued to be famous in various historical events, but Gaodi did nothing, so Gaodi's reputation has not been obvious... "

"Actually, just letting the Qing army enter the customs at Xianshan Pass and fighting with a piece of stone is enough to leave a high place in the history books. Of course, although it may not be a positive image!"

"In the Qing Dynasty, Gao Di successively served as the General Soldier of Shanhaiguan and the General Soldier of Henan Kaigui, and his title was only a third-class captain of light vehicles, which is far behind Wu Sangui who was surrendered to the Qing Dynasty at the same time..."

"But Gaudí's inaction made him die well..."

"In the tenth year of Shunzhi (1653), Gaodi begged for rest due to illness and returned to support. He died 18 years later. Later, because of his outstanding achievements, the emperor specially approved the hereditary second-class Adahafan of the fifth generation, and was honored as the first-rank official of the fourth generation. Ancestral hall "to enjoy incense offerings!"

"..."

Listening to Chu Ang's explanation, Zhao Chengjin muttered, "This kind of person can still enter the "Xiangxian Temple" to enjoy incense, what a ghost!"

"Heh..." Chu Ang laughed in a low voice, and then suddenly changed his voice. "During the Qianlong period, the National History Museum compiled "The Biography of the Two Officials" and "The Biography of the Adverse Officials". Gaodi and those who surrendered when the Qing army went south were included in the "Biography of the Second Officials", while Wu Sangui entered the "Biography of the Adverse Officials". It is funny to say, The enemy looks down on these people!"

"Hahaha..." Liu Yun couldn't help laughing.

Chu Ang's words cleared up Zhao Chengjin's thoughts again. He walked in and looked at the ancient book, "There should be more content behind it..."

"Yeah!" Another professor from the Palazzo Vecchio nodded, "There are... more..."

As he spoke, the professor continued to flip through the book, "The next page records many secrets between Gao Di and Wu Sangui. The rank of the first rank in the bureau, with a crown and a flower feather, was promoted from the second rank to the first rank. On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the regent Dorgon ordered to surrender in person, brought a large amount of military supplies, gold and silver, and personally bestowed Gaodi python clothes , to appease Gaodi to continue to serve as the general officer of Shanhaiguan..."

The professor took an ancient book and read it according to the scriptures, "On the ninth day of September, Emperor Shunzhi entered the pass, and Gaodi greeted him. He gave Gaodi the hereditary commander and continued to guard the closed door. The royal family specially bestowed a Hetian jade dragon and phoenix bracelet right!"

"???"

I thought this book was used by Zhu Zhiyu or some other scholar-bureaucrat in the late Ming Dynasty to satirize Wu Sangui and Gao Di and other ministers who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, but when he heard a familiar word, Chu Ang suddenly raised his head, "Wait... What is the special gift from the royal family? "

The professor looked at Chu Ang strangely, "Hetian Jade Dragon and Phoenix Bracelet!"

Gaudi...Hetian jade dragon and phoenix bracelet?

Chu Ang was stunned, his pupils shrank, his eyes were full of disbelief and shock, he subconsciously looked at Liu Yun, but Liu Yun's eyes also widened.

"..."

The two stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

"Is... a coincidence?" Liu Yun and Chu Ang looked at each other for a moment, then touched their jade bracelet involuntarily.

The professor looked at Chu Ang in confusion, "What's the matter? It's just a bracelet!"

As he said that, the professor continued to turn the page, "Hey, the next page is the drawing of the dragon and phoenix bracelet... As expected, it is a special gift from the royal family. This bracelet looks quite exquisite!"

Zhao Chengjin nodded in agreement, "This jade must have been a treasure in the Ming and Qing dynasties!"

"..."

Surprised, Chu Ang put down the seal for now, reached out and took a bracelet from Liu Yunshi's hand, and began to compare it with the drawing of the bracelet in the book.

"Hey..." Seeing this scene, the professor of the archaeological team next to him looked surprised, "The bracelet Mr. Chu is holding looks like the bracelet drawn in the book!"

Zhao Chengjin was shocked, "This...how is it possible..."

Just now they were shocked by the exquisiteness of the bracelet drawn on the book, but Chu Ang took out a very similar bracelet in the next second.

"call!"

Chu Ang's eyes flickered, and he took a deep breath.

It can't be said that they are similar, they are exactly the same!
In other words...it is the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang bracelet given to Gaodi by the Qing royal family!
Chu Ang's eyes were uncertain, and his face was slightly condensed, "That boy Gao Jinyang has said many times...the bracelet of dragon and phoenix is ​​the ancestral treasure of the Gao family!"

……

……

ps: Gaudi, this character really exists!
And there are two Gaudis.

Here I specifically say that the names of these two people are exactly the same, both named Gao Di, and both were celebrities in the late Ming Dynasty.

The two men, a civil official and a military general, both held high official positions in the Ming Dynasty, and both of them served as officials outside the customs. To be the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan.
