Chapter 716 is hard to find

After Zhao Tuo established the country, he immediately began to govern this kingdom, he implemented the method of absolute isolation and autonomy in South Vietnam, avoided the war and turmoil in the Central Plains, and implemented the national policy of "harmony and collection of hundred Yue" that was conducive to the development of Lingnan in the territory; on the one hand, he imitated the Qin system and established a feudal kingdom in Lingnan with centralized power and divided counties and counties.

However, he did not follow the example of the Qin Dynasty in indiscriminate tyranny, but effectively protected the political, economic and cultural traditions of the immigrants from the Central Plains, introduced advanced technology from the Central Plains, and promoted the development of the productive forces in Lingnan.

On the other hand, he also advocated the mixing of Han and Vietnam, respected the customs of the Yue people, and appointed the leaders of the Yue people as important ministers in the country.

The first Southern Heavenly King in the history of Yangcheng once said triumphantly: "The old man is in the land of Baiyi, thousands of miles from east to west, north and south, with more than one million armor. ”

Although this is a boast of Haikou, it also reflects that the Kingdom of Nanyue did have a certain strength at that time.

Zhao Tuo became the first person in the history of ancient Lingnan, reigning for 67 years, bringing the Kingdom of Nanyue to its peak.

The next few kings were inferior to Zhao Tuo, and the Nanyue Kingdom weakened day by day, and finally perished under the attack of the five-way army sent by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the city of Panyu was also set on fire by the Han soldiers.

From the founding of the state in 204 BC to the destruction of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in 111 BC, the Nanyue Kingdom lasted for 93 years of five emperors.

Han Peacock waited for Xu Jiachen to finish speaking, and then said: "What you always say is the official history, you should also know that Zhao Tuo died in the fourth year of Han Jianyuan (137 BC), and the Lingnan region is on the verge of the South China Sea. The capital city of Panyu is also the collection of local products at home and abroad, the treasures are abundant, when Zhao Tuo was alive, he looted many rare treasures for his own enjoyment, and brought them into the mausoleum after his death.

Although the king of Nanyue dominated Lingnan during his lifetime and had unlimited power, Nanyue was a local separatist power after all, and the land area and population of the country were about the same as a large county in the Han Dynasty.

After Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, due to the establishment of the regime. The treasury is empty. The national strength is limited, and there are Xiongnu in the north of Xinjiang, so the whip is beyond the reach. For the time being, there is no power to march south. can only recognize the small court of South Vietnam against his will.

But. There are no two days in the sky, there are no two monarchs in the country, and the Nanyue Kingdom has always been a big trouble for the Han Dynasty to unify Lingnan. Zhao Tuo, who has a lot of experience, has long seen this, the coexistence of Han and Vietnam is just using each other, and one day they will meet each other.

Moreover, the development of the Han Dynasty was growing stronger and stronger, while the Nanyue Kingdom was weakening day by day, so after Zhao Tuo's death, it was impossible to build his mausoleum very grandiose and huge, with a significant goal.

The king of Nanyue was deeply afraid that in the future, the mausoleum would be like the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, which would be stolen and excavated or even thrown into the wilderness, so he racked his brains to arrange his future affairs very carefully, and the tomb was hidden very mysteriously. ”

Xu Jiachen said: "Of course I know this, according to history, when he went out of the funeral, 'mostly suspicious', the hearse came out of the four gates of Panyu City, and no one knew where the coffin containing Zhao Tuo's body was buried at that time." ”

Han Peacock said: "You have always heard of it, does anyone know the whereabouts of the ancient tomb?" ”

"Does anyone know the whereabouts of the tomb? It can't be, right? If you know, you can't still find Zhao Tuo's tomb by now! ”

Han Peacock said: "During the Three Kingdoms period, Yangcheng belonged to the scope of Wu State, and Sun Quan, the king of Wu, heard ancient rumors that Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, buried many treasures in the mausoleum three hundred years ago, so he ignored the Cao Wei group at that time, and wanted to swallow the precipitous shape of Eastern Wu, and sent the general Lu Yu with thousands of soldiers to come to Guangzhou to dig the tomb of the king of Nanyue.

Adhering to Sun Quan's will, they went to Lingnan to plunder treasures with great fanfare, did all kinds of evil, and dug three feet into the ground, almost cutting off a piece of land in the big and small Gangling near Yangcheng, and only dug up the mausoleum of Zhao Yingqi, the third king of Nanyue, and obtained a lot of treasures. ”

Xu Jiachen said: "I really didn't know about this, but it was mentioned in the text given to me in Yangcheng that their worries were really good, and you really set your eyes on the only few big tombs in Yangcheng." ”

Han Peacock smiled bitterly: "Now those people in the country are guarding against me as a thief?" However, this reassures them that I will not go to their place if it is not necessary. ”

"So it's necessary for you to go to Zhao Tuo's tomb?" Xu Jiachen said.

Han Peacock said: "It is necessary to go, but I don't dare to go, so I have been delaying until now." ”

"Don't dare to go?" Xu Jiachen looked at Han Peacock and found that Han Peacock's face was full of solemnity, and he didn't mean to joke at all.

Han Peacock said to Xu Jiachen: "Sun Quan can be said to be the first emperor to dig graves and rob tombs, he is earlier than Cao Cao's gold captain, it is said that after digging out the tomb of the third generation of Yue Wang, there were some soldiers at that time, because they did not adapt to the Lingnan water and soil malaria and died, but the local Yue people said that the soldiers were caught in the evil art of the underground ghosts of the king of Nanyue, and the ghosts of the underworld made the tomb robbers not live in peace, do you have any feelings when you hear it?" ”

"Ghosts? Sorcery? Xu Jiachen also began to smile bitterly, he didn't know what to say about some ancient things now.

"Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the tombs of the first and second generations of Nanyue kings, who are more abundant and have larger tombs, will also be spared the catastrophe." Han Peacock said meaningfully.

Since Sun Quan, the stars have changed, and as the years go by, the treasures of the mysterious Nanyue King have become more and more attractive.

Therefore, there are many people in the past dynasties who are dreaming of looking for the treasures of the king of Nanyue, they follow in the footsteps of Sun Quan, according to some clues, they have traveled all over the south from Jilonggang, north to Tianjinggang and Yangcheng within a radius of 100 miles, trying to find this eye-catching property in Zhao Tuo's mausoleum, and some of the mountains with more legends have become the focus of thieves one after another.

As a result, it was just a moon in the water, but it left a lot of anecdotes, adding a lot of mysterious colors to the tomb of the king of Nanyue, and becoming a fascinating and confusing historical mystery in Yangcheng.

More than 20 years ago, when the wind of "human special functions" was blowing more and more, a "special function" in Yangcheng volunteered to use his magical functions to assist the cultural relics department to find the treasure of the king of Nanyue, but finally failed.

It is safe to say that at that time, Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, who racked his brains, spent a lot of financial resources and took extremely strict measures to build his permanent dormitory, and he was already ready to fight a protracted battle for treasures with future generations.

In the past 50 years, with the development of modern archaeology, archaeologists in Yangcheng have also listed Zhao Tuo's mausoleum as the object of key cultural relics investigation.

After going through great hardships, they found hundreds of tombs during the Nanyue Kingdom in Yangcheng, and unearthed many precious cultural relics, which provided important new information for the study of the history of Nanyue.

Regrettably, they are all the tombs of officials or civilians of the South Vietnamese state, and the mysterious Zhao Tuo mausoleum is still missing.

"Maybe?" Xu Jiachen is not so easy to fool.

Han Peacock said: "In fact, it is very easy to find Zhao Tuo's tomb, not as difficult as you always imagined, but the difficulty is difficult, how to dig it out, according to the Han Dynasty mausoleum system and the customs of living and gathering tribes in South Vietnam, so it is not difficult to speculate that Zhao Tuo's tomb is also near Yangcheng, and the biggest possibility is at the foot of Yuexiu Mountain."

Although this is just a speculation, I think many people have this kind of judgment, although so far, the Southern Heavenly King β€”β€”β€” Zhao Tuo, who is the most powerful king in the ancient history of Lingnan, still enjoys countless treasures and sleeps in an extremely mysterious mausoleum, but this is not how secret his mausoleum is, but because his anti-theft means are comparable to the Qin Emperor, so he can sleep in peace until now. ”

"Since you know where Zhao Tuo's tomb is, then tell the Yangcheng side, if possible, you can go and take a trip, I think it won't be difficult for you." Xu Jiachen said.

Han Peacock smiled bitterly: "In June 1983, archaeologists found a large stone chamber tomb in the Nanyue period in Xianggang, north of Yangcheng, this tomb was carved into the mountain for the mausoleum, hidden in the heart of Xianggang 20 meters, the tomb owner is Zhao Tuo's grandsonβ€”β€”β€” Zhao Yi, the king of Nanyue Wen.

More than 1,000 pieces (sets) of precious cultural relics such as the "Emperor Wen's seal" dragon and gold seals were unearthed in the tomb, which is known as one of the five new archaeological discoveries in China in recent years. ”

"This shows that there is no such thing as a ghost." Xu Jiachen said.

Han Peacock said: "Your inference is actually not comprehensive, nor is it accurate, I have just said that the Nanyue people also have the custom of living together and burying together, and found the tomb of Zhao Tuo's grandson, so is it so difficult to find other tombs?"

You haven't forgotten Sun Quan, have you? The first person who wanted to find the tomb of Zhao Tuo was Sun Quan, the emperor of Eastern Wu, who found the tomb of Zhao Tuo's great-grandson Zhao Yingqi, and took away the gold carved jade clothes, 36 jade seals and 3 bronze swords, but the tomb of Zhao Tuo was found.

At this time, it was only more than 300 years since Zhao Tuo's death, why is there no trace of the grave? Even if he can't find the tomb of Zhao Tuo, can we find the tomb of Zhao Yi, the king of Wen of Nanyue, they can't find it?

I don't believe this at all, if they find out, why do you say they gave up in the end? Because of a ghost attack, or some other accident, they can't do it anyway. ”

"No more? What's not going to work? Xu Jiachen said.

Han Peacock said: "Irresistible factors, otherwise, with the madness of those people at that time, how could it be possible to let go of Zhao Yuan's tomb, is it difficult to find Zhao Yuan's tomb?" ”

Han Peacock's words made Xu Jiachen speechless, Zhao Yuan's tomb is indeed not difficult to find.

Because Zhao Tuo lived so long that his sons died, the throne left behind had to be inherited by his grandson Zhao Wei (mΓ²).

After Zhao Yuan succeeded to the throne, known as "Emperor Wen of Nanyue", Zhao Yuan is the second generation of Nanyue king, reigned for only ten years, died of illness in 122 BC, where the burial place is and the descendants have not known, even the tomb robbers have not been out.

But in the 80s of the 20th century, Zhao Yuan's tomb was unexpectedly discovered, and it is still intact. (To be continued......)
