Chapter 0777: I robbed Su Shi's tomb
readx;
Wanyan Taoping is still entangled with Wang Mumu about archaeological tomb robbery. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wanyan Taoping now has another whimsical idea: "Daddy, don't you really want to see that Su Shi?" Dad, we know that this Su Shi, he will be braided in 1101, and it will only be 11 years ago. After he is buried, I will pick a day and rob his tomb. I went to steal Su Shi's tombstone, hid it for a thousand years, and left it to future generations, so that they could plant this tombstone on the Su Causeway of West Lake. The tourists looked at the Su Causeway written on the stele for thirty miles, and walked on the Su Causeway, five or six miles, and the two contradictory physical evidence were juxtaposed, which was funny, and Su Shi slapped himself. ”
Wang Mumu: "You girl, you want to rob Su Shi's tomb?" ”
Wanyan Taoping: "Why not?" Dad, even if I don't steal, others will steal, people just don't steal, and the gold people will be destroyed! I am a Jurchen, and I understand Jurchens. The mentality of the Jurchens is very strange, on the one hand, they like Song girls who can sing and dance and are beautiful; On the other hand, they were disgusted with the study of literature, despised the literati, and feared that the Confucian Society of Sven would ruin the brave and warlike Jurchen men. Therefore, when the Jin people went south, they would not pay tribute to the Su tomb, but would only smash the Su tomb. In the same way, even worse, when Meng Yuan went south, he would not treat Su Tomb well, and he would smash it. So, instead of letting them smash, let me do a good protective digging. People who don't know history will reprimand me for being disrespectful; Those who know history will pay tribute to me. So why shouldn't I? ”
Wang Mumu: "Girl, let me ask you, where are you going to rob the tomb?" ”
Wanyan Taoping: "Hehe, Dad, in fact, Su Shi's tomb is also a Song mystery in our previous life and in the later life of the Song people. Later generations have said that Su Shi was sent to Lingnan and buried in Hainan; Later generations say that Su Shi, his parents and wife were buried in Meishan; Later generations say that Su Shi's tomb is buried in Huoshan, Anhui, which can be proved by the 'Su genealogy'. In the 21st century, the mainstream theory is that Jiaxian, Henan Province, known as "Songshan Xiaoemei", is the real burial place of Su Dongpo, which was put forward by the American scholar Ms. Tang Kailin and is quite approved by the academic circles at home and abroad.
But I don't dare to agree, you think, Su Shi died of illness in Changzhou in July of the first year of the Northern Song Dynasty (1101). In July, it was the height of summer, and the corpses were very decomposable. Generally speaking, corpses are the fastest in summer. More than 24 hours after death, the right lower quadrant begins to appear green; For more than 3 days, the corpse is a giant; About 15 days after death, the soft tissues of the whole body decay, chyme, collapse, and digest. From Changzhou, Jiangsu Province to Jiaxian, Henan Province, there is a straight-line distance of more than 600 kilometers. When actually transporting, you have to cross the river, there are mountain roads, and you can't walk the trail. In this way, for a large coffin, it is extremely inconvenient to transport. Fifteen days is not enough in any way. Long-distance moving, for the sake of load, it is impossible to do any kind of anti-corrosion sealing treatment. Su Shi's spirit is not likely to be in a state of decay and militation when he is buried in Jiaxian.
In addition, the ancients believed in entering the earth as soon as possible, so it was reasonable for Su Shi, who died in Changxin, to be buried in Changzhou. Besides, no matter how many times Su Shi's career goes up and down, there is no doubt that Su Shi is a celebrity who can go to the history of the Song Dynasty. So, a big celebrity who can leave history died in Changzhou, and he wants to move to Jiaxian County, Henan, this is not a trivial matter, so why is there no record in the history of Changzhou where the people of Changzhou worship and bid farewell to Su Dongpo? Also, from Changzhou to Jiaxian, you must pass through Danyang, Jurong, Nanjing, Chuzhou, Bengbu, Zhoukou, Luohe, or Xuchang, Zhumadian, Bozhou, Fuyang, etc., along the way, there are many villages and townships in counties, no less than hundreds. If there is Su Shi moving the spirit, why is there no written record in the local chronicles at all levels in the state capital and Jiaxian along the way? Could it be that Su Shi's body was secretly carried by the descendants of the Su family? Wouldn't it be that Su Shi's soul transfer entrusted a professional corpse chaser in Xiangxi? What's more, Xiangxi chases corpses, only in Xiangxi, and will not come to Jiangnan.
In addition, according to the census of the previous life, and research, most of the Su surnames in Changzhou are descendants of Su Dongpo. Why don't you go to Jiaxian? Again, in Changzhou, in the 21st century, I went to Dongpo Park there. The park is surrounded by water on three sides, with ancient trees and beautiful scenery, and it is an excellent place for feng shui. When Mr. Zhuang, a scholar of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, visited this place, he once asked, why is the layout of the park in the style of a cemetery? Why is Tsuchiyama on the east side of the park the highest point in the park? Why is there the Imperial Tablet Pavilion of Emperor Qianlong at the foot of the mountain? Why is there still Su Dongpo's inkstone pond there? If you confirm that Su Shi is buried in Changzhou, then everything is reasonable. So, if I want to steal Su Shi's tomb, of course I have to go to Changzhou, how can I go to Jiaxian? Fortunately, now Su Shi is still alive, 11 years later, let's wait and see, where Su Shi is buried, future generations will be confused, what is in front of us, inquire, how can we make a mistake? When I was studying, I knew that the "Three Su Tombs" in Jiaxian County, Henan Province, had the tombs of Su Laoquan, Su Dongpo, and Su Zhe. But that's just a symbolic 'mound of clothes'. It was an eyeball project carried out by Yin Yangyun of Jiaxian County two hundred years later. It is not, as some people say, that his son Su Guo, according to Su Shi's will to be 'buried in Songshan' before his death, transported his body to Henan and buried him in Jiaxian County with his stepwife Wang Runzhi, who died at an early age. 11 years later, his younger brother Su Zheke died in Xuchang, Henan, and was buried with Su Dongpo nearby.
Dad, I said that Su Shi returned to heaven, and his body would be buried in Changzhou, and there was another reason. That is, Su Shi died in 1101. At that time, the old party to which Su Shi belonged a few years ago, the Shu Party, was attacked by the new party that returned to power; Su Shi's biggest backer in the imperial court, Empress Dowager Xuanren Shenglie, Gao Taotao, had collapsed in 1093, eight years before Su Shi's return to heaven, and the empress of Song Shenzong Zhao Ji, another more supportive of Su Shi in the imperial court, had been honored as the empress dowager when Song Zhezong succeeded to the throne in 1085. In 1100, Song Zhezong died, and the empress dowager listened to the government. However, in the first month of 1101, it also collapsed. Therefore, when Su Shi died in July 1101, his two major backers in the court and China were gone. Judging from the general climate of the entire imperial court, although in 1100, Xiang Empress Dowager tried to arrange the proposal of Prime Minister Zhang Dan and supported Duan Wang Zhao Ji as the emperor, which was for Song Huizong, so the old party returned to power. During this period, the old and the new alternated, intrigue, and the political atmosphere was bad. At that time, Su Shi died, if he made a big move, moved hundreds of miles, crossed the river and climbed the mountains, the new party would not tolerate it, and the old party would not dare to do much. The living can't make the living immortal because of the dead, so the smart Su Guo will never risk the world, move the soul for a long time, have nothing to do, and ask for trouble.
Besides, in 1084 (the seventh year of Yuanfeng), Su Shi left Huangzhou and went to Ruzhou to take office. Due to the long journey and the fatigue of the journey, Su Shi's young child unfortunately died. Ruzhou is a long way, and the cost of the road has been exhausted, coupled with the pain of losing a child, Su Shi wrote to the imperial court, requesting not to go to Ruzhou for the time being, to live in Changzhou first, and then approved. When he was about to return south to Changzhou, Shenzong died. The water network in Changzhou is staggered and the scenery is beautiful. He lived in Changzhou, where he had no worries about hunger and cold, and could enjoy the beautiful scenery, and he was far away from the political strife in the capital, and could get along with his family and many friends day and night. So Su Dongpo chose Changzhou as his place of death. Therefore, don't say that Su Shi intends to live in Jiaxian, in fact, 17 years before his death, Su Shi intended to live in Changzhou for the rest of his life and stay rooted in Changzhou. ”
Wang Mumu: "Girl, then according to you, in the twentieth century, the tombs of Su Shi in the southeast and northwest were all empty shells?" Don't have Su Shi's stuffing? ”
Wanyan Taoping: "Of course, Jinmeng is a saboteur and averse to architecture. Therefore, the Jin people destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty. Even if there is a Su tomb in Jiaxian County, not far from Bianjing, the Jin people will destroy those monuments if they don't rob the tombs. And at that time, how could those Song people who were no longer restrained not go to rob Su Shi's tomb? Later, the Meng Yuan destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, that is, there was a Su tomb in Changzhou, and the Mongols did not rob the tomb, and those Song people who had no country and could not rob the tomb of Su Shi? So, Dad, please face up to my archaeological career, please pay attention to my archaeological career, I'm not robbing tombs, I'm archaeology, understand? Archaeologists are scholars, and tomb robbers are thieves. In my work, archaeology is the essence, tomb robbery is the form, you can't confuse right and wrong! ”
Wang Mumu: "So, girl, if you say it, how should we understand that Su Shi's tombstone is in Jiaxian, Henan, not Changzhou, Jiangnan?" ”
Wanyan Taoping: "Dad, you can't figure this out?" Do you think, Su Shi was buried in Changzhou, if Su Zhe's "Epitaph of the Dead Brother Zhan Duanming" was planted in a grand manner, would the Su family dare to tree it? Which common man doesn't treat him as a neurotic spit? Changzhou is not far from Hangzhou, and belongs to the south of the Yangtze River, no big partition, convenient to come and go. The Su Causeway of Hangzhou's West Lake is five or six miles long, and Changzhou people also know it. In this way, the Su family dared to open their eyes and say nonsense in Changzhou: 'Thirty miles north and south of Hunan'? It's different in Jiaxian, Henan. It is far away from Hangzhou, in particular, there is the Yangtze River moat between it and Hangzhou, and in those days, there was little contact between the river and Hangzhou. Not to mention that there are many other rivers and mountains. Therefore, they bully people to be closed, and they can say in Jiaxian: 'Thirty miles from north to south of the lake, going back and forth around the lake, and not reaching it all day long. If you take the lake of Fengtian as a long causeway, it will lead to the north and south'. How could the locals think that these thirty miles were an exaggeration? Hehe, Dad, these analyses are also support for your criticism of Su Shi, right? ”

This is really: once brilliant and once withered, who can blame for the ups and downs of the career; I didn't hear that someone was Su Di, and frankly said that Su Shi was mistaken for a hundred generations.
