Ye Tian held the Holy Roman Empire crown with his left hand and a soft cloth in his right hand, carefully wiping off the dust on the cross on top of the crown.
The next moment, a rhombus-shaped white diamond set in the center of the gold cross appeared in front of everyone.
Under the light, the huge flawless white diamond is crystal clear and dazzling, emitting a dazzling light that is dazzling!
There was a moment of silence before the live broadcast, and then everything got heated.
“Wow! That is a flawless white diamond. It is so big and beautiful that it can make people crazy!”
“What Steven said is absolutely correct. This is definitely a priceless top antique piece of art. If nothing else, the value of this flawless white diamond is astronomical!”
Just when people were exclaiming, Ye Tian’s clear voice came again, overwhelming all the sounds in an instant.
“Before introducing this Holy Roman Empire crown, I think it is necessary to popularize some knowledge related to it, so that everyone can better appreciate this treasure.
The oldest existing crown is the Golden Crown of the Holy Roman Empire. It was made in the tenth century during the period of Otto I or Conrad II III, and has clear written records in relevant historical materials.
During the Holy Roman Empire, the Golden Crown, the Imperial Sword, the Imperial Spear and the Imperial Cross together constituted the symbols of holy kingship. They were kept in Nuremberg from 1424 to 1796.
Nuremberg is the birthplace of the Frankish Kingdom. Only when the new king is crowned can these royal treasures leave Nuremberg. To this day, the golden crown is kept in Hofburg, Austria.
After hearing this, everyone should have understood that the dazzling crown in front of you is not the golden crown of the Holy Roman Empire made in the tenth century, but another crown.
But the origin of this crown is also very important, and its importance is no less than the golden crown of the Holy Roman Empire. From the 15th century to the early 19th century, it was the true symbol of imperial power.
In the early 15th century, after the Habsburg family occupied the throne of the Holy Roman Empire, they made this new crown in the style of a gold crown to symbolize the imperial power of the Habsburg family.
Like the golden crown, this crown also adopts the shape of an octahedron and is surrounded by eight gold plates. The gold plates are inlaid with various gems and pearls, and the number is as high as hundreds!
In addition, these eight gold plates are also decorated with many enamel patterns, with different contents. They are all religious stories from the “Old Testament” and “New Testament”, symbolizing the divine right of kings.
There is an arch at the top of the crown, and there is a cross above the arch. It is the cross you see now. It is not only inlaid with diamonds, but also emeralds, sapphires, etc….”
Next, Ye Tian introduced the Holy Roman Empire crown while gently wiping the dust on the crown with very gentle movements.
As he moved, the crown, which symbolized the imperial power of the Holy Roman Empire and was made by the Habsburg family in the early 15th century, gradually revealed its true appearance and glowed brightly again!
In front of countless live broadcasts, people listened to Ye Tian’s explanation with great interest, staring closely at the dazzling crown on the live broadcast screen, their eyes full of envy.
Martinez has finished cleaning the dust on “Napoleon Enters Vienna” and turned his head to look here, admiring the crown in ecstasy, his eyes were so hot!
At this moment, how much he wanted to take the crown as his own, and then take it back to the Louvre and display it in the exhibition hall of the Louvre for everyone to enjoy!
That is where it should exist, not sleeping in this dark underground chamber, and it should not fall into the hands of that **** Steven!
As he spoke, Ye Tian’s explanation was coming to an end.
“…, in 1804, Francis II wore this crown in Vienna and declared himself emperor of Austria. In response to Napoleon’s proclaimed emperor, he became the first emperor of the Austrian Empire.
It was Napoleon who forcefully ended the Holy Roman Empire in 1806. Francis II had to take off the crown of the Holy Roman Empire and became the last emperor in the history of the Holy Roman Empire.
Since then, this dazzling crown of the Holy Roman Empire has completely disappeared from the eyes of the world. It has never appeared again for more than two hundred years. Who would have thought that it would be hidden here.
It must be said that it is a very lucky thing to find this crown today. In the following exploration operations, I believe that other related things or documents will be found! “
As soon as he finished speaking, Martinez immediately continued:
“Obviously, after Francis II was forced to take off the crown of the Holy Roman Empire, he sent the crown to Paris and became a trophy of Emperor Napoleon.
After Napoleon’s defeat, this crown did not appear in the list of items returned to Austria. No one knew where it went. The truth was not revealed until today! “
When he said these words, Martinez’s tone was so sour that it made his teeth drop.
Not just him, who among the people watching this treasure hunt live broadcast is not in a sour mood? Which one doesn’t have red eyes with envy? No exceptions!
At the same time as the explanation was finished, Ye Tian also wiped the dust off the crown of the Holy Roman Empire.
Immediately afterwards, he picked up the dazzling crown and slowly turned it around in front of the high-definition camera he carried, showing it completely!
Countless live broadcasts are once again boiling with excitement, and there are shouts of admiration everywhere, one after another, endless!
After the display, Ye Tian reluctantly put the Holy Roman Empire crown back on the solid wood table and placed it in its original position.
After admiring it for a while, he looked away and said with a smile:
“Guys, let’s continue exploring. I believe there will be bigger surprises and many priceless top-notch antiques waiting for us. Today will be wonderful!”
After saying that, he stepped out, walked around the display wall in front, and walked deeper into the secret room.
Martinez and Walker immediately averted their eyes and followed closely behind. Everyone was extremely excited and their steps were brisk, as if they were stepping on clouds!
At the same time, as far away as Vienna, Austria, many people were staring at the Holy Roman Empire crown on the live broadcast screen with blood-red eyes, and never took their eyes away for a moment!
“We must get back this crown of the Holy Roman Empire at any cost. More than two hundred years ago, Napoleon led his army to sack Austria and Vienna.
More than two hundred years have passed. We must not be robbed by this **** Steven again. This is a national treasure belonging to Austria. It is time to return to this land. It must not fall into the hands of others! “
“We have already launched an operation. The ambassador to France and the cultural counselor have already arrived at the Ile de la Cité where the building is located, but they were stopped by the Paris police at the street corner and unable to enter the building.
The ambassador to France then contacted that **** Steven’s lawyer and formally filed a claim, hoping that that **** Steven could return the Holy Roman Empire crown to Austria.
But that **** Steven is too greedy and ignores our claims. Instead, he asks us to prepare real money and go to him to negotiate a deal and redeem the crown! “
“What a bastard, I hate these **** Americans, they’re so **** hateful!”
The angry curses suddenly sounded, revealing endless anger and a bit of helplessness.
Although he did not witness what happened in Vienna with his own eyes, Ye Tian expected all this, and he didn’t care at all!
If you want this Holy Roman Empire crown, then bring real money and silver to trade, otherwise there is no need to talk, no matter what kind of **** you are, it’s all the same!
In three or two steps, Ye Tian and the others had turned around the display wall and arrived behind it.
It was only then that they truly entered the underground secret room hiding Napoleon’s treasure.
The moment they walked into this underground secret room, except for Ye Tian, Walker and Martinez were all completely stunned by what they saw, and they froze on the spot with their mouths open!
Everyone in front of the live broadcast was the same. They all had their eyes widened, staring at the live broadcast screen, and their eyeballs almost flew out of their sockets.
Under the illumination of two searchlights, the situation in the underground secret room was clearly presented before people’s eyes.
It is better to say that this is an underground palace than an underground secret room.
The first thing Ye Tian and the others saw was a dome made of granite, which was extremely solid and magnificent!
Under the high dome, there is a spacious hall with a considerable area!
Seven or eight marble columns with a diameter of about half a meter stand in the hall, firmly supporting the dome and the ancient early Renaissance-style building on the ground!
Looking at the location of this hall, it is just below the atrium garden of the ancient building on the ground. The pressure on the dome is not too great!
You can see through the searchlight that the dome of the hall, the four walls, and the marble columns used for support are all carved with exquisite patterns and several murals!
Although they were separated by a certain distance, Ye Tian and Martinez could still tell at a glance that those patterns and murals were not only exquisite, but also had certain artistic value. They were all neoclassical works!
It can be inferred from this that this underground chamber should have been built in the early 19th century. It was most likely ordered by Napoleon himself, and the specific person in charge was Jacques David.
In addition to the carved patterns and murals, there are also many oil paintings hanging on the walls and marble columns around the hall. Each oil painting has a glass cover, which is very well protected!
On the floor of the hall, there are many boxes piled up.
Those boxes were of different sizes and specifications, stacked up and staggered, there were so many of them, they were piled up like hills, covered with dust and covered with moss!
No need to ask, those boxes must be filled with top-quality antiques and artworks, each of which is valuable, otherwise Napoleon wouldn’t have hidden them here!
But except for Ye Tian, no one else knows what those antique artworks are. Only by opening those boxes one by one will the answer be truly revealed!
“Hiss——!”
Martinez and the others finally came to their senses, and then they all gasped, unable to believe their eyes.
“Oh my God! How is this possible? How many treasures did Napoleon hide here? It’s crazy!”
With Martinez’s slightly vibrating emotion, everyone on the live broadcast side was awakened.
The next moment, many people suddenly jumped up from the sofa as if they were electrocuted, and rushed directly to the TV or computer screen, almost crazy!
