Especially one part of income was used to build this tomb for himself during alive which wasted money till one of artist painted every cielings in this tomb with his feet in dragon picture named "Dragon in cloud" for sarcastic.
By the way, after the king knew the result for used feet to draw this ,he still didn't punish him cause of the painting was so wonderful and beautiful.
