This is clearly a complete set of Easter eggs designed and produced based on the theme of the Chinese zodiac!
But according to historical records, Fabergé has never designed and produced this kind of Easter eggs based on the Chinese zodiac. So what are these Easter eggs about?
This kind of question that has been sealed for a century, even if Yang Jing's IQ is as high as 147, he can't figure it out. Since he can't figure it out, don't waste brain cells thinking about it. In that turbulent era, anything can happen, so just use the holy ring!
After identification, all the sixteen eggs were from Fabergé. It was impossible to make mistakes in the identification of the Holy Ring, and Yang Jing had always believed in this.
A total of nine Fabergé eggs have been lost. All of them were from the collection of the Russian royal family, including the Tsar's Sapphire Pendant Egg made in 1886, the Angel Pulling a Carriage Egg made in 1888, the Necessary Egg made in 1889 and the Alexander III Commemorative Egg made in 1909. All of them are lost and can no longer be seen in modern times.
However, the four lost Fabergé eggs of the Russian royal family now all appear among these sixteen eggs.
As for the remaining twelve Easter eggs, just as Yang Jing guessed, they were also made by Fabergé, and Fabergé spent five years secretly making them for Nicholas II.
These twelve eggs were made by Fabergé from the beginning of 1900 to October 1904, which took a total of five years. Judging from the time, Yang Jing believes that these twelve eggs should have been specially prepared by Fabergé to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Nicholas II's accession to the throne.
Nicholas II was an ambitious guy. Everyone knows that when he was in power, he had a great interest in the Far East, especially the Northeast of China. As a tsar who was determined to unify the Far East, Nicholas II had been very interested in Chinese culture since he ascended the throne. In his opinion, if he wanted to rule the Far East, as a tsar, he had to understand the culture and living habits of the people in that region.
Perhaps it was for this reason that Fabergé came up with such a way to please Nicholas II.
The Chinese zodiac is a very famous cultural custom in China, and the animals in the zodiac are very cute. If a set of eggs is made based on the zodiac as a gift for the tenth anniversary of Nicholas II's accession to the throne, then His Majesty the Great Tsar will definitely like it. Especially at this time when the Russo-Japanese War was in full swing, using such a set of eggs as a gift also indicated that Russia would win in that difficult war.
This was probably what Fabergé was thinking at the time.
Although Yang Jing didn’t know why Fabergé made such a set of Easter eggs, it wasn’t an exaggeration to make such a guess!
Anyway, there is no record of this set of twelve zodiac Easter eggs in history. Perhaps Nicholas II liked this set of eggs so much that he kept it privately, or perhaps for some other reason, this set of Easter eggs was not known to outsiders.
It is as if there is no news about the Easter eggs made by Fabergé in 1904 and 1905. According to Fabergé's habit, he would present two Easter eggs to the Russian royal family every year, but there was no news about the four eggs presented in those two years. Later generations do not even know the names and appearances of the four eggs presented in those two years.
Similarly, this set of eggs presented to Nicholas II in 1904 also has no historical records for unknown reasons.
However, whether there is a record or not, it is not important to Yang Jing now. What is important is that these 16 Fabergé eggs now completely belong to him, especially the set of the twelve zodiac eggs which are particularly precious.
After silently using his consciousness to wrap up the last box and taking it out, Yang Jing let out a long sigh of relief.
After stretching, Yang Jing walked out of the cabin contentedly.
These two months were not wasted, the treasure of the last Tsar alone is enough to make the whole journey worthwhile!
