"Neither task failure nor task success is shown."

"What does that mean?"

In the corner of the cultural relics storage room, Chen Han'an sat quietly here.

In the eyes of others, Chen Han is wandering outside the world.

In reality, though, he was staring at the system panel in front of him that only he could see.

On the very rudimentary system panel, the task of "solving the mystery of the past" is still hanging on it.

This made Chen Han extremely puzzled.

The inscription that Professor Li interpreted has clearly proved that Zeng Guo is Suiguo.

The story of Suiguo recorded in "Zuo Biography" is what the monarch of Zeng State experienced.

And it is the Zeng Marquis buried in the M1 tomb of Wenfeng Tower!

That being the case, it has sparked a fifty-decade ongoing debate in academia.

Those conjectures such as Zeng Fei, Zeng Zhi, and Sui Zeng, can be stopped in the face of this inscription.

The mystery that followed it can also be solved?

Why are system tasks still motionless?

Scratching his head, Chen Han was completely messy.

This system doesn't have an intelligent voice or artificial intelligence or anything, so he doesn't even know what the situation is.

It stands to reason that when he completed the last task before, as soon as the paper was written and not officially published, the system automatically judged that the task was completed.

Now that the inscription has been cracked, shouldn't it be judged that the mission was successful?

Or does it also need to be formalized in the form of a paper to solve the mystery of Zeng Sui?

Chen Han touched his chin and made another bold guess.

Could it be that in the tomb group of Wenfeng Tower, there is more clear evidence that Zeng Sui is the same country?

After all, the appearance of this inscription is actually only a side confirmation that Zeng Sui is a country.

If you can find the utensils with the inscription of the word "Sui" in the aristocratic group of Zeng Kingdom, it is the most conclusive proof!

For example, one bronze mentions words like "anywhere" and "anywhere".

In this way, it can be 100% proof that it was a country.

So far, the Chinese archaeological community has found a lot of bronzes with the inscriptions of "Zeng" and "Zeng Hou".

However, no bronze inscription with the word "Sui" has been found.

According to the double evidence method of archaeology, history that is only recorded in history books, but does not have any underground or surviving cultural relics, cannot be regarded as 100% faithful history.

In other words, the "Suiguo" that only exists in the pre-Qin written texts cannot actually be determined to be a real country.

Like "Summer", it cannot be said that there must be no such country, but it cannot be said that there must be.

This is the rigor of science.

At present, the tombs of Wenfeng Pagoda have only excavated tombs M1 and M2.

You know, there are more than 66 tombs in the entire tomb complex.

For the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the excavation of this tomb complex has only just begun.

Perhaps more evidence will be unearthed in the future that can conclusively prove that it was once a country!

"Anyway, the speculation that Zeng Sui is a country should be eight or nine and ten." Chen Han muttered.

......

In the afternoon, the archaeologists who were responsible for cleaning up the soil of Tomb M1 found two new bronze mustaches one after another, which were sent to the cultural relics preservation room.

The researcher who sent it smiled and said, "Professor Li! Here are two bronze mustaches unearthed from tomb M1 with inscriptions! ”

"Yo, there's something new?"

Professor Li, who was continuing to decipher the inscription of the No. 1 bell, shouted without raising his head: "Xiao Chen, go check it." ”

Chen Han, who was temporarily transferred from the site for archaeology and assisted Professor Li in interpreting the inscriptions, immediately stepped forward to check the two bronze mustaches.

The two bronze beards are exactly the same shape and look like a team of twins.

Even the inscriptions engraved on the bottom of the two bronze mustaches are exactly the same.

After staring at the inscription for a while, Chen Han read uncertainly: "Zeng Hou... （）.. The Trip? ”

There are a total of six inscriptions, five of which are common words, which are very easy to recognize.

The only thing is Zeng Hou's name, which looks a little illegible.

But how does Chen Han look at it, how does he feel that this word is familiar.

"Senior Brother Zhang, please bring my computer over for a while."

Zhang Jianbo, who was sorting out the unearthed cultural relics and taking pictures and archiving them, got up and handed over Chen Han's computer.

Chen Han immediately boarded the national archaeological platform and inquired about the relevant inscriptions in the tomb of Marquis Yi.

Since he had an impression of this inscription, it means that he must have seen it before.

Among the various archaeological discoveries and surviving bronze inscriptions related to Zeng Guoguo, he is most familiar with the bronzes of the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng.

That's definitely the way to start.

Sure enough, on a photo of Tong Ge unearthed from the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng, Chen Han saw the exact same inscription.

Next to the picture, there is a group of paleography researchers from the School of Arts and Letters of Peking University, who have interpreted the translation together.

"Zeng Hou and!"

Chen Han slapped his thigh hard, stood up and exclaimed, "The identity of the owner of Tomb M1 can be determined!" ”

"It's Zeng Hou He who was mentioned by Tong Ge in the tomb of Marquis Yi!"

"He is also the one recorded in the history books, and he saved the retinue of King Chu Zhao!"

"Since the bell unearthed in tomb M1 records this history, the age of this bell casting must be in 506 BC, that is, nine years after the end of the year!"

"And the inscription of the chime also has the age of the casting!"

"But the first month of the king, the auspicious day of the first day, according to the first month of the Zhou calendar, the year of the conjunction should be 497 BC!"

"It's the state of Wu to attack Chu, nine years after King Chu Huai followed!"

"And the year of Zeng Hou Yi's death was 433 BC, a difference of 64 years between Zeng Hou Yi and the Zeng Hou in Tomb M1!"

"Zeng Hou Yi's skeleton identification is about 40~45 years old, and it is speculated that Zeng Hou Yi has been a king for about 20 years, and there should be a vacancy of about 40 years."

"In the tomb of Zeng Hou Yi, in addition to a Tong Ge that mentions Zeng Hou and He, there is also a Tong Ge that mentions a former monarch called "Zeng Hou Wu Yu"! ”

"In the tomb of Marquis B, only artifacts related to these two Marquis Zeng appear, indicating that these two generations of Marquis Zeng are the two generations of Marquis Zeng before Marquis B!"

"Then, this Zeng Hou Wuyu should be Zeng Hou Yi's father, and the owner of Tomb M1, Zeng Hou You, is Zeng Hou Yi's grandfather!"

"In the past, it was widely believed in academic circles that if Zeng Sui was from the same country, Zeng Hou Yi was the son of the Suihou who saved King Chu Zhao."

"However, this conjecture can now be determined to be wrong!"

"Actually, Zeng Hou Yi is Zeng Hou He's grandson!"

"Marquis Zeng died nine years after the Wu State invaded Chu, far less than King Zhao of Chu."

"And King Chu Hui, who sent the bell to Zeng Hou Yi, although he is the son of King Chu Zhao, he has reigned for fifty-seven years!"

"King Chu Hui, who has been on standby for a long time, spans two generations of Zeng Hou!"

"This caused a misunderstanding in the historical circles, thinking that Zeng Hou Yi and King Chu Hui were of the same generation!"

Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Han.

The order and identity of the three generations of Zenghou Yi's ancestors and grandchildren, as well as who is the Suihou recorded in "Zuo Biography", are actually unraveled like this?

He really put a big bomb on this, and everyone was shocked, and it was difficult to digest this huge amount of information for a while...
