Tang Dou and Liu Zhenjiang sat at both ends of the small table, slowly sipping tea, Liu Zhenjiang smiled at Tang Dou and said: "I didn't expect to meet you in the chief's office, why don't you play in the capital for a few more days, and come back in such a hurry."

After dealing with officials a lot, Tang Dou knew what Liu Zhenjiang wanted to ask, so he smiled and said, "I got a sword, and the chief was a little interested, so he asked me to bring it over to show him." ”

"Oh? What kind of sword? Liu Zhenjiang had a strange expression on his face, he really couldn't think of any sword that could alarm the chief.

Tang Dou smiled and said, "It's the Kusanagi Sword." ”

After Tang Dou said that, seeing that Liu Zhenjiang didn't react much, it was obvious that Liu Zhenjiang didn't know much about the Kusanagi Sword, he smiled and continued: "The Kusanagi Sword is one of the three major artifacts in the ancient period of Little Japan. ”

Liu Zhenjiang suddenly realized, raised his eyebrows and asked Tang Dou: "Is that the Tiancong Cloud Sword that is as famous as the Eight-Foot Qiong Hook Jade and the Eight Mirrors?" You got this sword? ”

It seems that Liu Zhenjiang is not ignorant of the Kusanagi Sword, but he only remembers the official name of the Kusanagi Sword, and he didn't react for a while.

Tang Dou smiled and said, "It's that sword." ”

Liu Zhenjiang nodded vigorously, if it was this sword, it would be worth the chief to meet Tang Dou for this.

At this time, Lan Hui knocked on the door with a tray, and Tang Dou hurriedly got up to help, placing the four delicate side dishes on the tray, two cold and two hot, on the small table.

Lan Hui cleaned up the tea set on the table, brought a jar of aged Shaoxing flower carvings and filled them with Liu Zhenjiang and Tang Dou respectively, and then smiled at Liu Zhenjiang and Tang Dou and exited the room.

Liu Zhenjiang smiled and picked up the wine glass in front of him and raised it at Tang Dou: "I didn't expect the Kusanagi Sword to be obtained by you, it's worth drinking for this sword." ”

Tang Dou hurriedly raised the wine glass with both hands and touched it with Liu Zhenjiang, and took a sip at Liu Zhenjiang.

Putting down the wine glass, the topic opened around the Kusanagi sword, Tang Dou told Liu Zhenjiang what he said to the chief, and later added that the Japanese crown prince had already flown from Japan to Hong Kong Island to meet him.

Liu Zhenjiang smiled: "This is a big deal, Comrade Xiao Tang, although the Kusanagi Sword is your private property, if it is used well, it can also make a great contribution to the country." Go and do it, I've got your back. ”

Tang Dou smiled and toasted Liu Zhenjiang.

Tang Dou didn't know what Liu Zhenjiang was looking for him, but since Liu Zhenjiang didn't mention it, Tang Dou naturally wouldn't take the initiative to ask.

The two of them drank a few glasses of wine, and Liu Zhenjiang finally opened his mouth to say the purpose of asking Tang Dou.

Liu Zhenjiang smiled and said to Tang Dou: "Xiao Tang, it's not a big deal for me to find you this time, it's like this, the province has decided to further carry out protective excavations of the Ming Tomb after research......"

Hearing this, the smile on Tang Dou's face disappeared instantly.

Liu Zhenjiang thought that Tang Dou's expression was to show concern about this matter, he smiled slightly and continued: "Xiao Tang, you are a native of Jinling, you should know that the government cultural relics department has been exploring and protecting the Ming Tomb for more than ten years, we are sure that the Ming Tomb is one of the most complete protected emperor's tombs in our country so far, due to historical and geographical reasons, the Ming Tomb has never been stolen and excavated......"

Even after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing government was in a political situation, and in order to alleviate the contradictions and conflicts between the Manchus and Hans, protective measures were implemented for the Ming Tomb, which was regarded as the foundation of the ancestors by the Han people in the pre-Ming Dynasty.

In the twenty-third year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi arrived in Jinling on his first southern tour and went to Xiaoling to pay respects. In the 38th year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi went down to the south of the Yangtze River again to pay homage to the filial piety mausoleum, and inscribed "Zhilong Tang and Song Dynasty" tablet in the stele pavilion.

Kangxi toured the south, sent officials to worship six times, and went to the filial piety tomb five times to worship.

Qianlong toured the south six times, and each time he had to go to the Ming Tomb to pay respects. Moreover, Kangxi and Qianlong worshiped three kneels and nine bows, which was praised by the people of the time as "the ceremony is long, more than the usual rituals, and it is a virtuous act through the ages".

Later, the government of the Republic of China overthrew the Qing government, and Mr. Zhongshan brought the officials of the provisional government to pay tribute to the tomb of Ming Xiaoling on February 15 of the first year of the Republic of China, and personally drafted the memorial text.

Even during the occupation of Jinling by Little Japan, the Ming Tomb was not destroyed, perhaps this was a gentle method they used to enslave the Chinese.

In this way, after hundreds of years of ups and downs, the Ming Tomb was miraculously protected.

Of course, another reason is that the Ming Tomb is too close to Jinling, as long as there is any wind and grass in the Ming Tomb, the people in Jinling City will immediately hear the movement.

Ordinary people want to dig up the Ming Tomb in front of the people of Jinling, which is simply wishful thinking.

In addition, the anti-theft excavation design of the Ming Tomb is still very intelligent.

The Ming Tomb is located in Dulongfu, Purple Mountain, which was originally a solid stone mountain. The Ming Tomb is horizontally chiseled into the mountain, and the Xuan Palace is hollowed out from the inside.

This method of construction in the form of a horizontal cave is huge and very strong. Without the use of explosives, tomb robbers simply could not punch the robbery hole from the top down.

The horizontal cave design makes the tomb road the only passage for tomb robbers, and in order to hide the tomb road, the craftsmen who built the Ming Tomb are also painstaking.

In addition to the horizontal pit and the side tomb road, there is a thick layer of pebbles under the high soil layer of the Ming Tomb, which is similar to the quicksand anti-theft method, when the tomb robbers dig a hole, the pebbles will roll down from all directions to fill the hole, and even the tomb robbers will be buried under the cobblestones.

So far, the underground palace of the Ming Tomb has been excavated part, according to the analysis of archaeologists, now the excavation of this part of the underground palace is less than a quarter of all the underground palace parts of the Ming Tomb, the most important part of the underground palace is still intact.

Liu Zhenjiang talked for a long time, and finally told Tang Dou his purpose: "It's such a little Tang, the excavation of the Ming Xiaoling Underground Palace is a big deal for our Sujiang Province and even the whole country, due to technical reasons, the excavation of the Ming Xiaoling Tomb needs experienced experts to preside over the work." Our provincial cultural relics department is preparing to carry out a large-scale excavation of the Ming Tomb in the near future, and strive to completely open the Ming Tomb Underground Palace at one time, the cultural relics department asked the Ministry of Culture to send some experts for technical support, I went to Beijing this time, and Xue Xinhan mentioned this matter. Hehe, as a result, I was squeezed by Vice Minister Xue for a long time, saying that I was begging for food with a golden rice bowl. Vice Minister Xue recommended to me Old Dean Qin, your father-in-law, and your master. How about Xiao Tang, how about the excavation of the underground palace of the Ming Tomb this time by the provincial cultural relics department and you for 5,000 years? ”

Liu Zhenjiang finally finished what he was going to say, he looked at Tang Dou with a smile, waiting for Tang Dou's reply.

In Liu Zhenjiang's heart, he gave a gift of fame and fortune to Tang Dou.

However, Liu Zhenjiang didn't expect that Tang Dou would reject him without hesitation.

"I'm sorry Secretary Liu, my grandfather and they are now carrying out archaeological activities on the poor mulberry site in Qilu Province, I'm afraid they won't have time to participate in the excavation of the underground palace of the Ming Tomb."

Liu Zhenjiang almost blurted out a stupid sentence to Tang Dou, even if you are excavating the poor mulberry, you can still make a name here.

Liu Zhenjiang smiled and said: "It's okay, the excavation of the underground palace of Ming Xiaoling is not a work that can be completed in one or two months or even a year or two, and when the time comes, it will be enough to ask the old dean Qin and them to come over and guide them." ”

"I'm sorry Secretary Liu, I'm afraid my grandfather won't agree to this matter." Tang Dou said with a wry smile.

Even if Qin Yanpei and the others were really interested, he would not let this matter continue.

Damn, let me dig the graves of Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Dajia, if I really do it, do I still have the face to meet the two of them? (To be continued.) )
