Archaeologists excavate in 2013. When cleaning the tomb, I found the epitaph, removed the soil on the top, and found that this was the inscription of the Tang Dynasty Zhaorong Shangguan?

This is Shangguan Wan'er? This is her tomb?

Shangguan Wan'er was a famous woman during the time of Wu Zetian and Zhongzong. Wu Zetian's assistant has experienced countless ups and downs in his life.

The history of Wu Zetian and the history of Zhongzong, without her, there would be no color. One of the most famous women.

This tomb has a slope tomb road, five patios, and the bottom big hole is the tomb entrance. The background color of the epitaph is white, and there are only traces of the frescoes now. Because it's watering the ground. For more than a thousand years, water flowed down the loess holes, soaking the mural. Shangguan Wan'er is a concubine, and the mural should be a reproduction of court life. It's a pity that I can't see it anymore.

The courtyard in the tomb is eye-catching. Since the Han Dynasty, there have been patios. It became popular after the Northern Zhou Dynasty. What is the role of a patio? Some people say that death is like life. There were before death, and there are still after death. The food and clothing used during his lifetime were moved to the tomb.

The house is too big, so make a model and put it in. The patio symbolizes the courtyard during his lifetime. A patio symbolizes a courtyard.

In addition, it is said that it is convenient to transport soil. It is also said that the construction progress is accelerated. Work in the farthest place, and play slowly down. If several shafts are drilled at the same time, it is equivalent to adding several working faces. Together, it's done.

Shangguan Wan'er's tomb has niches. There are many terracotta figurines that accompany the burial. However, the tomb was damaged by Yanzhòng. There are no traces of coffins. There was a bone, but it was a fragment. Her rank should have a high-grade coffin. Tang also showed the phenomenon of misuse of sarcophagus coffins. There are also special regulations that do not abuse stone coffins. Shangguan Wan'er should have a stone coffin. But no. It shows that she was buried in a very simple way.

Shangguan Wan'er has a high reputation in history. She is Wu Zeyao's most powerful political assistant, and Tang Zhongzong's concubine, her tomb was unearthed, which can be said to be a major event in the archaeological world, but with the rediscovery of Shangguan Wan'er's tomb, many people also have a series of question marks in their minds, so what are these question marks?

The first question is, how to determine that this is Shangguan Wan'er's tomb? It's an epitaph. The epitaph appeared after the Eastern Han Dynasty. It was popular during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. With an epitaph, it is convenient to determine the identity. But where there is an identity, there is an epitaph. If there is a human being, can't it be faked? Those who have such thoughts can be because of Cao Cao. In fact, the real Cao Cao in history did not have seventy-two doubts. Shangguan Wan'er has no enemies. Even if there is an enemy. It is also Li Longji and Princess Taiping. Is it necessary for them to confuse others? Shangguan Wan'er's tomb cannot be faked. She also has no family.

The second doubt is. Did Shangguan Wan'er really die in a coup d'état? Some people suggested that they were quietly hiding. Shortly after he was killed, the Tang government drew up a collection of essays. It shows that Li Longji likes and admires it. Shangguan Wan'er was hidden, and the tomb was a ghost for the dead. On Shangguan Wan'er, it is unlikely that a blinding method will be used. Technically. On the day of the coup. Shangguan Wan'er was caught. Brought to Li Longji. And then killed. It's too hard to fake.

The third question is, why were the tombs destroyed? This is often the result of burial thieves. There were even torches. and even ignite the items in it. The thief hole is also dangerous. The problem is that no robbery holes have been found in this tomb. Tomb robbers can't be so boring as to lift stones. Everyone felt that destruction was an official act. It was Li Longji's people who did it. The bricks of the coffin bed were lifted. This tomb is made of bricks.

The fourth question is how to explain the contradiction between building and destroying tombs? If you don't make it, you can't do it? There is some truth to this suspicion. That's how I look at it. This tomb was built by Shangguan Wan'er herself before her death. In ancient cultures, there was a custom of preparing for the aftermath of life. For example, the emperor's mausoleum was repaired when he was alive. Shangguan Wan'er was 47 years old when she died. How could she think about the aftermath? The question is Shangguan Wan'er, after all, she is an ancient. The average life expectancy of the Tang people is a little more than 50 years. At that time, there were few who lived to seventy. Fifty is universal. Like how many emperors have a long life? Therefore, the tomb was repaired by Shangguan Wan'er herself, and the specifications are in line with the identity. The burial was done by Li Longji and Princess Taiping. So there was no coffin at the time of burial. Destruction is a political negation. There is even a suspicion that sabotage is an act of witchcraft. Because Shangguan Wan'er died horizontally, she suppressed her ghost. Sabotage is a means of repression. In recent years, there has been an archaeological site that has seen a similar situation. A cemetery in the Five Dynasties, very close to the Tang. Massive scale. Even the burial chamber is larger than the house where the living live. There were also bones inside. It was also destroyed by Yan zhòng. It should be the royal capital of the Five Dynasties, fighting against the Later Tang Army, defeated and killed. It is speculated that after the Later Tang army was killed, they were put into the tomb and carried out large-scale destruction, which is exactly the same as Shangguan Wan'er's tomb. Some speculate that it was the Anshi Rebellion and even the rebels at the end of the Tang Dynasty. It can't be, without such a motive.

The fifth question is why not accompany the burial of Zhongzong? Tang Zhongzong died early, Dingling. Located in Phoenix Mountain. Dingling is a burial tomb less. There was no concubine to accompany the burial. Shangguan Wan'er is even more impossible.

The sixth question is whether there is a mechanism in the tomb? In fact, as far as we know, the so-called organs are legends. After a thousand or two thousand years, it has long decayed. Archaeological has not been found. The ancients prevented tomb robbery by sealing the soil. Not easily stolen. Others have anti-theft measures, like the Chu tomb of Shangcai Guozhuang, eleven meters of yellow sand. Also, there are thousands of stones mixed in the sand. The corners of the stone are sharp. The sand flowed down, and the stones followed, trying to hurt the tomb robbers. The design of the burial chamber is also distinctive. Fake tombs were repaired. It was a real tomb that was repaired on the top of the tomb and a coffin was placed. Let the grave robbers think it's real. This is also considered an anti-theft measure. Shangguan Wan'er's tomb really has no mechanism. Even if a tomb robber enters, he will be disappointed.

The seventh question is whether it is possible to restore Shangguan Wan'er's appearance? There are remnant bones. I am afraid that the task of restoring the appearance will not be able to be completed. The prerequisite for skull restoration is the presence of a skull. This condition is not present in the tomb. There was only one remnant of bones inside. If the conditions for restoration are not met, will this bone be an animal bone? Because animals are often buried together. There is a possibility that the archaeological department has not made an official archaeological report, but it is extremely low. The phenomenon of accompanying burials is many. The situation here is exceptional. In this tomb, there is nothing but terracotta figurines.

Shangguan Wan'er's life has always had a lifetime of contradictions and entanglements.

Wan'er had a bumpy fate and a strong struggle. Misfortune comes from a power struggle. As an adult, he was also involved in the whirlpool. There is a thirst for power, and superhuman talent and love are also entangled with this. If Shangguan Wan'er was just a poet, how good it would be. Unfortunately not. She is a product of the times. What she did was a reflection of the time. She couldn't help herself. Birth comes with a struggle for power. It wasn't calm at first.

When her mother, Zheng, was pregnant, she had a strange omen, and one day she took a nap and dreamed of a god, and said to her, "The child in her womb should weigh the world."

Zheng was very happy when he heard this. Meaning to be a big shot in the future. She told the dream to others. Born, disappointed, is a girl. How can a girl weigh the world? When teasing her once, he said "Child", is it really you who weighs the world?

The child's muffled voice seemed to be "yes". For a while, it spread.

In any case, the four words weighing the world are very appropriate to describe her. The so-called prophecy really came true.

Shangguan Wan'er's family itself is ill-fated. But it has always been related to politics. Shangguan Yi has good articles, officials worship the prime minister, and is a leader in the literary world. The words are beautiful and gorgeous. It is known as Shangguan Body. Shangguan Yi looks pompous. The ancient minister went to court early, and one day rode a horse and walked slowly along the river.

The other ministers looked from afar, and saw Shangguan Yi like a fairy, and it was rumored to be a beautiful talk for a while. Shangguan Yi did not get rid of his fate, and soon trouble came. From Wu Zetian, she became the queen, Tang Gaozong found that Wu Zetian was not good, and his desire for power exceeded expectations. Gaozong was not in good health, and Wu Zetian took the opportunity to take power. Gojong was not happy about this. But Wu Zetian is strong, and Gaozong is afraid of his wife.

Finally, one day, it aroused the anger of Gojong. Wu Zetian privately invited a Taoist priest to do something in the palace, which aroused Gaozong's anger. Warlocks are so annoying. Many rumors come from warlocks. Therefore, this time, Wu Zetian was tired of winning, which made Gaozong unbearable. Shangguan Yi was standing beside Gaozong. Shangguan Yijian yì, please abolish it.
