    Just when the Qing Dynasty gave in to the invaders, agreed to accept all the conditions for "peace negotiations," and signed the agreement at a later date, the British leaders of the invasion of China, Ergin and Grant, in order to leave an impression of "immensely severe" on their invasion of China, made the Qing Dynasty "shocked," and even ordered the burning of the Old Summer Palace under the pretext that they arrested the envoy and treated the prisoners of war poorly.

    On October 18, 1860, 3,500 British troops rushed into the Old Summer Palace and set fire to the Old Summer Palace. This unique masterpiece of the garden was burned to the ground. Afterwards, according to the Qing Dynasty, only twenty or thirty palaces, pavilions, temples, official gates, duty rooms and other buildings survived in the huge Three Gardens of the Old Ming Dynasty.

    Since then, some buildings in Wanshoushan Qingyi Garden, Xiangshan Jingyi Garden and Yuquan Mountain Jingmingyuan have also been burned. When the British invading army burned down the Anyou Palace, because they came suddenly, the chief eunuch locked the gate of the Anyou Palace, so there were 300 eunuchs, palace maids, craftsmen, etc., who were burned alive in the Anyou Palace. became an atrocity in the history of world civilization.
