Where is the jade watermelon worth 600 million yuan of Empress Dowager Cixi now?

The Qing dynasty is the closest dynasty to us, so it is probably the clearest. Speaking of Cixi, there must be someone who knows everything, betraying the country for glory and signing various unequal treaties that humiliated the country. She loved jade most in her life. The pair of jade watermelons she loved, one of which was lost among the people, and the other became the treasure of American museums.

It can be said that Cixi lived a luxurious life and preferred jewelry and jade. According to Li, her personal eunuch, in her memoir Notes on the Moon Pavilion, Cixi always loved a pair of jade watermelons, and the valuation at that time was as high as 4 million. In the Republic of China, it is even more valuable. The valuation has reached more than 6 million, and now it is 600 million.

Speaking of emerald watermelon, it leads to another person, that is, Sun Dianying. Because Cixi's pair of emerald watermelons were buried with them, and Sun Dianying went to steal and dig her grave more than 20 years after Cixi's death. Since it's a grave robbery, naturally this pair of jade watermelons fell into Sun Dianying's hands. To say that Cixi is really considerate of the funerary objects, the setting of the funeral, coupled with the huge scale, is said to have tied hundreds of thousands of paper men and countless funerary objects. Sun Dianying used more than a dozen cars just to pull.

Later, in order to save his life, Sun Dianying gave one of the pair of jade watermelons to Song Ziwen. Song Ziwen then left the mainland and settled in the United States. Until the economic difficulties, he sold the emerald watermelon to the United States. So far, that priceless treasure has become a treasure of American museums. Another emerald watermelon wandered in the crowd and disappeared.
