When the tomb was opened, a large amount of stagnant water rushed out, and the gold, silver and jade artifacts were washed out of the tomb, and Bailiyan was worried about the spread of infectious diseases, so she asked people to wear masks and retreat 200 steps away, and all the items washed out of the tomb were soaked in a clay pot filled with disinfectant wine or iodophor essence for disinfection.

The unearthed gold and silver have utensils and gold and silver blocks, the blocks are shaped like steamed buns, cast with unknown characters, and are by no means the fonts used by today's vassal states, but they inherit the structure of the Central Plains script, and Zhao Anling judged that the tombs of this dynasty are not based on them.

"Mr. Zhao, do you know when the words are on the gold and silver?"

"This is the official gold and official silver of the Dynasty."

Zhao Anling recognized at a glance that the words cast on the gold and silver came from the Liang Dynasty.

"Since it is the official of the Dynasty to cast gold and silver, why is it so different from the writing of the Liang Dynasty?"

"Hou Ye doesn't know that this monarch is not from the Central Plains, he comes from the vassal states in the central and southern parts of the country today, and has his own writing. After entering the Central Plains, although inheriting the old characters of the Chen Dynasty and improving them, it is similar to the original text of today's Liang Dynasty, but the people of the Jun clan of the Hao Dynasty still use their own language. In order to show the prestige of the status, the gold and silver of the official name of the dynasty are all made of such flat balls, and the words "official made" and "palace made" are cast on the reverse side to distinguish the gold and silver of the imperial court from the gold and silver of the princes in various places.

This piece of gold is roughly equivalent to the current big gold collar, looking at the shape of the word, this gold and silver should be the gold and silver cast by the palace, at least about 400 years before the Liang Dynasty. It must have been a thousand years ago. A thousand years ago, there were so many gold and silver burial companions, it was not the princes and kings, it must be the tomb of the Son of Heaven. ”

Bai Liyan was taken aback when she heard the news:

"There has never been a capital city in the land of Changyin, how can the tomb of the Son of Heaven be in such a barren mountain and wild place?"

"This ...... I'm afraid you can't know until you enter the tomb. However, I heard my brother say in Lintai that gold had been found in the early years of this Zhaocheng, and now it seems that this tomb must have been in disrepair for hundreds of years, and the drainage culvert in the tomb washed the gold and silver out of the tomb, and happened to be picked up by the mountain people. ”

Zhao Anling proposed to enter the tomb to search, and Baili Yan's scalp was numb.

Not to mention that this is no different from tomb robbing, invisible germs in the air can cause a plague at any time. But if you don't enter the tomb and bury it, the news will spread in the future, and it will eventually be stolen and excavated.

After weighing left and right, Bailiyan decided to enter the tomb.

"Jiang Jie!"

"The end will be."

"Let the surrounding trees be cut down, the weeds cleared, the circle of fire around the tomb is 100 paces and 2 steps wide, and at the same time the alcohol is thrown around the tomb, and 500 sets of military uniforms will be replenished at once, and all those who enter and leave the tomb must have their clothes burned and bathed, and the other battalions will not be given this without the order of the commander."

"No!"

It is not uncommon for tombs to be found due to war, when Cao Cao invented the post of "touching gold school captain" in order to raise military salaries, specializing in tomb robbery, and specializing in robbing Han tombs, because the Han tombs were buried quite richly, and according to rumors, the Black Turban Army did not hesitate to dig up the tombs of kings in various places in order to raise gold and silver. Bai Liyan never thought that it would be his turn to be a tomb robber today.

That night, a fire broke out 100 paces in diameter from the tomb, and the alcohol and hot air emitted killed viruses and bacteria as much as possible.

Public excavation of the tomb is not terrible, in addition to the method of pouring mercury, large-scale excavation from the top down, no matter how powerful anti-theft measures are difficult to be effective, but invisible viruses and bacteria are the primary deadly threat to the tomb.

The fire burned all night, and the next day the sun was in full bloom, Bailiyan made people eat and drink enough, drank one or two soju, and first let five people wear masks and carry torches into the tomb.

"How's it going in the tomb?" Bai Liyan hurriedly asked the soldiers out of the tomb.

"Back to the deputy marshal, the height of the tomb is about one and a half zhang, five stone chambers have been found, there are seventeen wooden coffins, a coffin, most of the coffins have rotted and collapsed, a large number of gold and silver items flow out of it, in addition, hundreds of bronze weapons and shields have been found, but most have rusted, and dozens of earthen pots are sealed with mud, eight or nine copper boxes, I don't know the objects for the time being, in addition, it is not found that people and animals are buried. The burial chamber is quite large, and there are several stone chambers that have not yet been opened, and they are still being searched. ”

"Then you can see that there are epitaphs and stone letters?"

"Not found yet."

Ping retired soldiers, Bai Liyan and Zhao Anling said:

"This is the Son of Heaven etiquette, and it seems to be absolutely good. But I can't figure it out, how could the Son of Heaven lay the mausoleum here, Mr. Zhao, what do you think? ”

"This ...... The number of dynasties are all at the junction of the three kingdoms of Sun, Yan and Liang, and there are only two counties away from the Liang country, but it is far away, and there are no classics to check in his hands at present, and it is difficult to know the clues for a while.

However, one thing is certain, the tombs of the Son of Heaven are all near the national capital, and if there is a tomb of the Son of Heaven here, most of the people in the tomb are not orthodox, and they should be deposed or exiled. ”

"Can the deposed Son of Heaven be a great gift for this?" Bai Liyan asked rhetorically.

"If you give up the country, you can enjoy the funeral system of the Son of Heaven. Looking at this situation now, it is possible for the country to be great. ”

Giving up the country is due to various ways to give up the throne to his son or brother, or collateral, coup d'état, forced palace is possible.

In addition, taking the initiative to abdicate so that the virtuous can often get a good death, and after death, the current monarch is grateful for the kindness of the former lord and often has to bury the former lord. There are so many burial goods in the tomb, and the regulations of the nine tombs are echoed, and it is more likely that the person who voluntarily abdicates to make Xian more likely.

The search lasted for half an hour, and the nine burial chambers were opened one after another, and there was an epitaph and a stone letter at the entrance of the main burial chamber and at the end of the corridor. The stone letter was sealed with copper skin, weighing more than 400 catties, and it took ten people to get out of the tomb.

The epitaph text maintains the shape of the previous dynasty, because the Central Plains script has not been unified and standardized, and at the same time, after more than a thousand years, there are certain differences with the current Chinese plains, and people are dazzled to see it.

After the epitaph was washed and wiped with iodophor and alcohol, it was quickly sent to Zhao Anling:

"Mr. Zhao, is the epitaph text recognizable?"

"Six or seven out of ten, it's very old, and the glyphs are very different, so you need to look carefully. However, the last inscription of this epitaph is very clear, the tomb was buried in the 472nd year of Xingbao of the Haochao Dynasty, about 1,000 years ago, and the owner of the tomb is ......"

Before the words fell, Zhao Anling was speechless, his pupils shrank in surprise, Bailiyan saw that he was silent, and hurriedly asked:

"Who is the owner of the tomb?"

"The number of the Son of Benevolence, Chai, Chai...... Assist. ”

"Chai Bi?" Bailiyan frowned and shook her head, she had never seen this name in the classics in her memory, but when she saw Zhao Anling's expression was different, she immediately chased: "Why is Mr. Zhao so nervous?" ”

"Don't you know?"

Zhao Anling asked rhetorically, and Bai Liyan was even more confused:

"I don't know it. Dare to ask Mr. Zhao, who is Chai Bi who can enjoy the majesty of the Son of Heaven. ”

"This Chai Bi has been the Son of Heaven twice, and I can't find the second Chai Bi throughout the ages."

"Shhh...... How is this possible, how can it be the Son of Heaven twice, could it be that he was first usurped and then restored? ”

"No, it is rumored that this Chai Bi has a strange temperament, ascended the throne at the age of fourteen, and at the age of twenty-four, he gave way to his younger brother Chai Sheng, but his younger brother died of illness after three years, and then Chai Sheng's two-year-old son Chai Min ascended the throne and died five years later.

So the throne of the Son of Heaven came to Chai Chai Bi's third brother Chai Lin, Chai Lin did less than a year and died, his son succeeded to the throne less than a month after dying, and finally Chai Bi had to ascend the throne again to continue Chai's family. ”

Hearing this, Bai Liyan's face was expressionless and cold sweat broke out, and the wind was blowing behind her:

"Obediently, this Chai Bi can pinch and calculate, the Son of Heaven dies one by one, is it not that Chai Bi ruthlessly eliminated dissidents, and in the name of giving way, he committed murder."

There were also rumors in the market that the Chai Bi brothers had different intentions, and Xu Tu was forced to give way after Chai Bi took the throne. But there is one thing that the world probably does not know. ”

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"This Chai Bi is the originator of today's metaphysics easy to learn, is a rare son of heaven who is proficient in craftsmanship, the world's metaphysics is easy to learn, most of them are passed on from the same vein as Chai Bi, it is believed that after his abdication, he concentrated on studying the arts, and he can do exquisite mechanisms, which was very good at the time."

"Shhh...... According to Mr. Zhao, this Chai Bi gave way to avoid obscurity and save his life, otherwise it would be Chai Bi who would die himself. ”

"It may be so, but after a thousand years, the oldest of the surviving texts is only more than 800 years old, so it is difficult to say whether it is true or false."

"Since he is the son of heaven, why did he move the tomb here?"

"The mausoleums of the Son of Heaven of the past dynasties are all in the capital of the Dynasty, and I guess the mausoleum here is not where the real tomb of Chai Bi is located, it should be a fake tomb, or there are other mysteries. There is also a stone letter here, open it and take a look. ”

The tomb letter is a supplement to the epitaph, which records the deeds of the tomb owner and records the deeds of the tomb owner. Usually, two pieces of stone letters with flat and smooth engraved characters are literally combined, and they are fastened together with thick copper or iron sheets to prevent them from separating.

Because the stone letter was pressed for too long, the upper and lower pieces of ashlar had been sealed, and it took a lot of effort to chisel it from a corner with an iron chisel.

After being chiseled, it was surprisingly unmarked with no inscriptions, and there was only a groove in the middle with a white crystal of unknown material.

"It's strange, there is not a word, what is this white powder?"

Zhao Anling was in a strange situation, reaching out to touch the white substance in the stone trough, Bai Liyan reached out and grabbed it, and said busily:

"Beware of poison!"

Zhao Anling doesn't care:

"The ancients didn't deceive me, how could they poison me."

"It's better to be careful, let Ben Shuai find a dead man to come and give it a try."

No matter what the white powder is, it has been in the tomb for a thousand years, and even if it is not poisonous, it is not known what germs are occupied.

When he was young, Jiang Jie found dead soldiers from the army:

"See the lieutenant."

"Well, today I found a tomb, as you can see, there is white powder in this stone letter, I don't know what, Ben Shuai needs you to taste it to find out, if you have a worry about your life, your family will be taken care of by Ben Hou in the future."

"Vice Marshal Xie!"

Without hesitation, the dead man squatted down to the side of the stone letter and reached out to dip it in the white powder, first rubbed it with his fingers, and then said:

"Lieutenant Marshal, this ...... It's like salt, or sugar. ”

"Salt? You taste, whether it's salty or sweet. ”

"No."

The dead man stretched out his tongue and tasted it carefully, frowned and said:

"Salty is salt, good salt."
