Chapter 13 Yong'an Establishment Map
After breakfast, we went to the office on the third floor and began to look up information about Professor Chen. Professor Chen's name is Chen Yongnian, and he is a well-known historian and archaeologist at XX University. His main research topic was the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. One of the most important achievements was the successful excavation and discovery of Li Zicheng's Tomb of the Heavenly King and the Yong'an Establishment Map.
After seeing this, Kuanzi couldn't help but laugh and said: "You said that you found Li Zicheng's Heavenly King Mausoleum, that is indeed awesome!" But a painting was found, and there was something to show off. Then again, what the hell is the Yongan establishment? ”
In fact, the Yong'an establishment is of great significance to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and several generals in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, such as Wei Changhui and Shi Dakai, were all enshrined here, and then led the troops to fight in all directions, and became famous all over the world. After the Tianping Army occupied Nanjing, there were many literati who were smugglers and patted horses, or wrote poems and lyrics or hand-painted Danqing, singing praises of virtue. This Yong'an establishment map was made by the painter "Yi'an" at that time. Of course, this Mr. Yi'an is just a pseudonym, it is said that after he made this picture, he sent someone to Hong Xiuquan's hands, Hong Xiuquan opened it and looked at it, and the whole person was stunned! The scenes and characters in this picture are all beautifully drawn and lifelike, as if Mr. Yi An was in the meeting at that time.
Hong Xiuquan was surprised, and hurriedly called someone to invite Mr. Yi An. Unexpectedly, this Mr. Yi An has long been missing. Everyone only found a letter in the inn where he lived, took it back to Hong Xiuquan to see, and saw that the letter read: "King, please forgive me for being unreasonable!" In the world, the talent is in me, how many tens of millions of people! So the king doesn't have to look for me! I made this painting just to tell the king that there are many flatterers around the king now, but there are few real talents! There are many people who sneak and shoot horses, but there are few people who give advice! If the king is aspiring to the world, he should be loyal and virtuous and stay away from the villain. If it happens, Yi will definitely come to meet the king. If the king only wants to take sides of the side and only seek temporary glory and wealth, then he should not say anything again! ”
It's a pity that Hong Xiuquan was already deeply immersed in the life of a sensual dog and horse, where can he still listen to the words of this Mr. Yi'an. The last vigorous Taiping Rebellion also ended in failure.
These things are things I saw in a wild history when I was in college. The illustration in the book at that time was this "Yongan Establishment Map".
Speaking of this, I hurriedly pointed to the characters in the painting on the computer and said: "This is the nine-thousand-year-old East King Yang Xiuqing, this is the eight-thousand-year-old West King Xiao Chaogui, this is the seven-thousand-year-old Southern King Feng Yunshan, this is the six-thousand-year-old North King Wei Changhui, and this is the six-thousand-year-old Wing King Shi Dakai." These people were among the best men of the time. It's a pity that in the Tianjing Incident, the three kings were killed and the Wing King left, otherwise the situation at that time was really hard to say who was in the end in the world! ”
Kuanzi didn't understand what this painting was, he couldn't interject just now, and he was already in a hurry, but when he saw the characters in the painting, he instantly became excited, he had learned this in high school, he quickly interjected: "Staff Officer Pan, you are suspected of beautifying history by saying this!" If you want me to say that even if those three kings don't die, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom will be finished! Didn't you see what the book said, Hong Xiuquan's kid, there are more than 3,000 beauties in the harem, this is all fucking catching up with Qin Shi Huang, you said that with his little talent, can he not be defeated! ”
I listened and said, "Those who achieve great things are not informal." Tang Zong Hanwu is not the same lustful and greedy, but he can become a generation of famous monarchs. The reason why the king of heaven failed was only because the time was unfavorable, as the so-called heaven was not good for me, how could it be a big deal! ”
Kuanzi listened and said: "At least the Tang Sect and Hanwu have already knocked down the country." As for Hong Xiuquan, most of the country is still in the hands of others, so he began to covet enjoyment. In modern terms, Dick Silk is Dick Silk, and you will never be rich and handsome! ”
I said, "I'm a serious student of history, so it's right for you to listen to me when commenting on history." The situation of the Heavenly King at that time was indeed not very favorable, and it happened that the foreigners were also present at that time, and it was really not easy for them to deal with the strong ships and guns. Commander Liang, don't believe it, if you are replaced, you will also be finished. ”
Kuanzi listened and said: "I fucking think about it, don't you think we were born more than a hundred years late!" ”
At this time, I only heard Tie Ying say: "You two don't quarrel. I wonder what a university professor who studies the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would have to do with these events. ”
I said, "Unless he finds something important in the tomb of the Heavenly King." You see, it is said that the tomb of the Heavenly King discovered by Professor Chen is actually an empty tomb, and after the completion of this tomb, the city of Nanjing was broken, and the Heavenly King died in battle, and the bones did not exist. Guangxi is the place of origin of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and it is impossible for the Heavenly King to spend so much manpower and material resources to build an empty tomb. I think he built this tomb with other intentions! ”
Kuanzi said: "What other intentions! You see that the emperor of the world didn't dig his grave more than ten years in advance, I think this Hong Xiuquan is also unavoidable, digging a grave for himself a little earlier, I think it is normal. ”
I shook my head and said, "If it was an empty tomb with nothing in it, Professor Chen would not be involved in it. Unless Professor Chen found something very important in the tomb that it caught their attention. Do you think that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom attacked the city and plundered the land all the way, and the gold and silver property obtained must have been a lot of rare treasures, Commander Liang, if you were Hong Xiuquan, what would you do? Are you just going to pull these treasures with you all the way? ”
Hiroko listened and said, "I won't be so stupid!" I will find a place in my hometown, and then send the treasure back, hide it secretly, and if I lose the war, I will at least have a way back. Even if he really dies in battle, he will leave a large amount of treasure for future generations, enough for them to spend a few lifetimes. ”
I listened and said, "Yes, Hong Xiuquan should have thought the same as you at that time." ”
Tie Ying listened and said, "You mean, that tomb is actually the place where Hong Xiuquan put his treasures. However, judging from the information, Professor Chen only found a Yongan establishment map and a few cultural relics in the tomb, and there was no gold or silver treasure. ”
"That's the crux of the matter," I said. I think Professor Chen must have concealed something. ”
Hiroko's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said, "According to what you say, didn't that old professor embezzle all the treasures in the tomb by himself?"
I said, "It's not him, it's the people behind him!" That's why they killed him! ”
Kuanzi said: "No, if you want to kill him, they will kill him a long time ago, and you don't have to wait until now!" ”
I said, "Maybe Professor Chen has always had their handle, or maybe he still has the value to use, so they didn't rush to do it." But now they are afraid that the situation will change, so they have to get rid of Professor Chen. ”
Tie Ying listened and said, "It seems that tonight, we really need to go to Professor Chen's house. ”
