268. The queen who has been a sacrifice
Xu Le deepened these things in his mind, and the voice in his ears was always there, and it didn't go away!
And his mind gradually became a clear figure, that kind of strong, stoic, and fighting in all directions, there is more and more a sense of overlap, he doesn't know where this feeling comes from, it feels very bad!
"Senior sister, tell the teacher how you dug up, right?" Xu Le said to Zheng Zhenxiang.
At that time, in the winter of '75, a wave of leveling the construction site of "Agricultural Dazhai" was set off, and this hill became the target of leveling. Since no excavations had been carried out in the area in the past, little was known about the site's connotation, and the staff of the Anyang Workstation of the Institute of Archaeology decided to drill an important site through discussion. The cotton stalks on the hill at the Xiaotun site have not been pulled out and can only be drilled at the edges. Beginning in late November, it was learned that the Yin culture layer appeared under the cultivated soil layer, and the rammed earth about 70 meters long from east to west in the east was relatively thick, thinner to the west, and the south side of the hill was a cliff formed by taking soil, and the south side of the cliff was an open space. The teacher considered that if the cliff on the south side was cleared, the observed phenomenon would be more reliable. So he began to clean up the cliff, and Chen Zhida also participated in the clean-up work, cleaning up for three days, and scraping out a section about 1450 meters long. Dense rammed earth foundations are exposed to the east, and lower ground to the west, but there is still rammed earth. The discovery of rammed earth foundations provides an important basis for the protection of this site. After contacting the responsible cadres of the village and asking them to see the scene, they all agreed to protect it and said that they would not take soil here in the future. The issue of preserving the site was satisfactorily resolved, and it was decided to carry out excavations the following year. ”。
Then Tang Jigen continued: "After going through the declaration and approval procedures, the excavation of the northwest land of Xiaotun Village was carried out in the spring of 76. The focus was on the excavation of the foundation of the building, and the participants included the teacher, the teacher, the teacher, and the professor Zhang of NTU. In order to find out the scope and nature of the rammed earth under the house foundation, excavated the No. 1 house foundation, after clearing the house foundation soil, what appears below is a rectangular pit, filled with rammed earth, its south side is taken and dug out, but after drilling it is known that there is still rammed earth downward, find its southern edge, the whole is rectangular, very much like a tomb, but when drilling, a rod can not be probed to the end, so the tether probes down, because the rammed earth is hard and dry, the probe shovel can not bring the soil, and the probe is more than five meters still not in the end, some people say, the small tun tomb pit is less, all are "dead rammed earth" (referring to the house foundation soil), affect the mood of migrant workers. Therefore, the part is dug down first, and it is stopped at a depth of three meters from the surface. Teachers and experienced technicians, teachers also have to drill, a rod can not be probed to the end can add the rod, with a screw lemon tight, if more than six meters deep is close to the groundwater, rammed earth into wet mud is not easy to explore, need to add a rod (the rod is inserted horizontally at the top of the rod), an old worker said, with a rod to two people to push. The teacher said that this is easy to do, and the work will be stopped on Sunday, leaving the personnel who participate in the drilling to work for a day, the purpose is to explore the end and get to the bottom of the water, even if it is not a tomb, they can rest assured, and the people present agreed.
May 16 is Sunday, the weather is fine, the teacher said to everyone, our task is to probe to the end, a few more holes, as long as the end of the probe no matter what phenomenon occurs, the task is completed, the workers are very energetic, began to explore the edge, several holes at different depths have encountered hard things like stones, can not go down. In the end, he decided to drill a hole in the center, and the teacher thought that if it was a tomb, there should be a phenomenon. One young man said that this was a crucial shovel that made the people present a little nervous. From three to six metres above the surface, progress is relatively fast. From the well, we know that the water level here is six. Five meters. Therefore, the rammed earth becomes mud, the mud on the probe shovel, often slides down when lifting, then the rod is added to drill down with the power of rotation, a shovel shovel is down, the speed is very slow, each shovel comes up to carefully see if the soil quality has changed, the workers are very hard, from six meters to seven meters deep took more than half an hour, is pushing the rod to go down, suddenly the probe rod sinks about 70 centimeters, the worker He Baoguo who probed the rod down tightly, so that the whole body strength fell down, the probe rod sank about 50 centimeters, and a hard bottom appeared. At this time, no one present made a sound, carefully and slowly pulled the shovel upward, the shovel was raised, the shovel was full of bright red patent leather, the atmosphere suddenly became active, everyone said in unison, it was a tomb, the sharp-eyed master He Zhenrong found that there was something in the shovel, he grabbed it and ran to the edge of the canal to wash it, it turned out to be a jade pendant, a tomb presented in front of everyone.
Concentrated efforts were concentrated on excavating this tomb, and the abutment was 5.6 meters long, 4 meters wide, and about 8 meters deep. At that time, there were no high hopes for a pit tomb with an area of only more than 20 square meters, but surprisingly, relics continued to appear in the fill of the excavated tomb. The relics are buried in layers, can be divided into six layers, the first to find is a remnant pottery, about three meters deep from the surface, a stone mortar of marble appeared in the northeast of the tomb, the bottom is facing up when unearthed, turn over and see, the mortar hole is full of dyed cinnabar, the color is bright. The discovery of this mortar raised everyone's enthusiasm, and several layers of cultural relics were unearthed one after another. The relics from each floor are not detailed one by one. Only the layer with the most unearthed relics is briefly described as follows, this layer is five years deep from the tomb entrance. Six meters, in the middle of the burial chamber, there are three ivory cups stacked on top of each other and a large number of bone pipes, presumably originally placed in wooden boxes. To the south of it is covered with burial goods of different materials, including stone beans, pairs of stone birds, exquisite bone carving knives and a bronze mirror, and many pieces of loose bone flutes. After taking out the relics of the upper layer, the relics pressed below are revealed, there are two bronze mirrors, a large stone cicada, and small stone pots, stone bases, stone pots and other "tools" for playing, as well as jade pipes, agate beads, etc. When unearthed, the color is bright. After cleaning the sixth floor, it is close to the water, but relics are still being found, the most important of which are the stone ox engraved with the word "Hou Xin", the skeleton of a martyr and the skeleton of a dog found against the tomb wall. Due to the continuous new discoveries, the atmosphere of the construction site is very active, especially the young people ask this and that, and some ask whether there will be a "tiger head Yi" (finger yi). The master said, maybe there will be a tiger head to open your eyes, and the people next to you will laugh. After clearing this layer of relics, it is close to the surface of the water, and no more digging down, and the excavation above the water surface has come to an end. ”
Tang Jigen drew a pen for Xu Le while talking, "Later, through the things and oracle bones that went out, I began to study, and I determined the identity of this woman, the major affairs of the country, in the worship and Rong, it is really amazing"!
"Who knows Wu Ding"? Xu Le asked.
"Wu Ding was the twenty-third king of the Shang Dynasty and the nephew of the twentieth king Pan Geng. When Pan Geng succeeded to the throne, the Shang Dynasty had already shown signs of internal strife and external troubles, and in order to get rid of the predicament, Pan Geng moved the capital of the Shang Dynasty to Beimeng (now Anyang, Yuzhou). A few years after Pan Geng completed the feat of moving to Yin, Wu Ding, the king of Zhongxing of the Shang Dynasty, took over the royal staff.
Wu Ding's experience is similar to that of Peter the Great of the Rus' kingdom nearly 3,000 years later.
Wu Ding's father, Xiao Yi, is Pan Geng's fourth brother, and he never dreamed that he would succeed to the throne. Therefore, when Wu Ding was young, Xiao Yi sent his son Wu Ding to live in the people. Wu Ding did not confide in anyone about his royal lineage, but learned all kinds of labor like an ordinary person, and experienced all kinds of hardships like an ordinary person, thus laying the foundation for his future succession to the Zhongxing dynasty. It was also this experience that led him to Fu Shuo, who was born as a slave in building a house.
Wu Ding was a monarch with a very strong personality, but also very emotional and ambitious. Before marrying Wu Ding, she was a princess of the northern Fang Kingdom of the Shang Kingdom, with an extraordinary background and knowledge. The woman is very intelligent, and she also has extraordinary courage and wisdom. Wu Ding, the king of the Shang Dynasty, who had the most prosperous martial arts, was her husband, and in the great martial arts of the Wu Ding era, there was a considerable part of the credit of the woman. The Shang Dynasty had a strong matriarchal clan heritage, and there was no problem at all with these adjectives used on the Shang queen. The woman has excellent arm strength, and one of the weapons she uses weighs nine kilograms, which shows that she is strong. And the weapon is a big axe, which shows her bravery.
Nu Hao and Wu Ding are a good couple who are truly like-minded. When he first got married, Wu Ding didn't know much about the ability of women to lead troops into battle. In the summer of one year, there was a foreign invasion on the northern border, and the generals sent to fight could not solve the problem for a long time. Wu Ding was very hesitant about his wife's request, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to let the queen go on the expedition through divination. Unexpectedly, as soon as the woman arrived at the front line, she dispatched and commanded well, and took the lead, and quickly defeated the enemy and won the victory. ”
"What's going on inside the tomb?" Xu Le wants to know about some items!
"Jade dragon, all kinds of honorable Ding, there is a jade phoenix, very beautiful, this device is very similar to the phoenix character in the oracle bone inscription of the Shang generation, it is an excellent physical object to study the image of the phoenix in the minds of the Shang generation. The jade phoenix has a high crown and a beak, short wings and a long tail, and the pavilion looks back and wants to fly, elegant and free, and the long tail of the stretch is naturally curved, and the tail feather is divided into points, and it is clean and unmarked. There is a perforation in front of the body, which makes the phoenix body plump and charming. The perforated knob with the protruding back should be the place where the rope is suspended. The image of the phoenix is beautiful and exquisite, and the jade is crystal clear and clean, which makes people can't help but take a second look and hold on. ”
Xu Le remembered the appearance of the phoenix and the phoenix wings and golden feathers!
"The woman left a son for Wu Ding, named Xiaoji. also gave birth to two daughters, namely Zituo and Zimei. Now her identity has been determined, including queen, important minister, high priest, prince and general. ”
Xu Le felt that it was completely wrong, either Wu Ding had a problem or a problem with his wife, how could this be possible? That's not a women's clan society anymore!
"According to the preliminary understanding, the woman has fought more than 90 times in her life, conquering more than 20 countries, and the ghost side, the earth side, the Pakistan side, the Dongyi side, the Nanban, and even the primitive people from India and Europe from the west have been beaten by her! What a general worthy of the name! ”
Hearing this, Xu Le really couldn't admire it!
In the oracle bones, there is such a record: "The woman is about to give birth, not good." Thirty days after another, Jiayin day delivery, must not be good. Girls"; There is also an oracle bone that reads: "Out of chastity...... King...... Yu Mu Xin...... Baekzai ...... Blood. "So now we judge that it is a difficult birth, or that the hand is too serious when we are fighting!
Hey, Xu Le now judges that there may indeed be a problem with the war, but there are more secrets, and it is definitely not that simple.
But, in the end, her life was frozen at the age of "thirty-three"!
Bright, rotten, and a woman who can match it, Xu Le thought about it, no, of course, the future generations will not be counted as bragging rights, even if they are counted!
After Xu Le listened to it, he fell into deep thought, how could it sound similar to General Huo Sanguan, suddenly fell at the most brilliant moment, does history like to joke so much?
