Chapter 176: Where Is My Golden Wisp?

In the inner coffin of the tomb owner, the most important thing is jade.

First of all, there are ten pieces of jade, which are spread on the chest and abdomen of the jade clothes, which is the most typical burial system of princes and kings in the Western Han Dynasty.

If you don't put more than five pieces of jade on your body, you are embarrassed to say that you are the princes and kings.

In addition, the two sides of the coffin are also separated by jade walls and jade huang.

There is 1 jade in the front, middle, and back positions on the left, and 1 small jade on the right.

This adds up to 13 jade bi and 3 jade bi.

It's not the end, because the width of the inner coffin is very wide, so after putting down the tomb owner in jade clothes, there are enough gaps on both sides to place other things.

Among them, the most eye-catching are the 10 iron swords!

These 10 iron swords are placed on the waists on both sides of the jade robe, with 5 pieces on each side.

The 3 pieces on the left are on the top and the 2 pieces are on the bottom, arranged relatively neatly, and the position is not moved.

The one on the right is a little scattered, apparently the coffin was hit when the boulder fell, and the relics in the coffin were thrown up by the shock, resulting in a large displacement of some utensils.

Six of the 10 iron swords are jade swords, one of which is on the right and four on the left.

The so-called jade sword, that is, the sword head, sword ornament, and sword grid are all made of jade, which is very luxurious and high-end.

Obviously, these 10 swords are not actual combat swords, but more of an effect as ceremonial swords.

In the Western Han Dynasty, the sword of the Son of Heaven and the sword of the princes were still very popular.

As long as it is a nobleman, whether it is a doctor or a public passenger below, or a prince, prince and king above, or even the Son of Heaven, he usually has a sword on his side when he travels every day.

After all, the atmosphere of the Western Han Dynasty was very martial.

Especially before the deposition of the hundred schools of thought and the exclusive respect for Confucianism, the Western Han Dynasty was completely a ***** country BC.

There is no way, the old Liu family, from Liu Bang to Liu Che, has been facing the crisis of Xiongnu invasion for more than 60 years.

When it was serious, even on the city wall of Chang'an, you could see the beacon fire and wolf smoke of the Xiongnu invasion.

In later generations, the Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty guarded the country, in fact, the Western Han Dynasty had been doing this for a long time.

Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty were basically bullied by the Xiongnu and were all humiliated by the Xiongnu.

Your people and nobles are not martial, do not always exercise their martial arts, and are ready to fight the Huns at any time, then the country is in danger of overturning at any time!

is also because he has been holding his breath, thinking about doing the Huns from top to bottom, and did not let the horse return to the mountain.

This is the last 60 years of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, a wash of the humiliation of Emperor Bai Mountain, and the great cause of the Huns.

At that time, it was popular for gentlemen to hold swords, including Confucianism at that time, and they were all inseparable from their swords.

A nobleman of the rank of the King of Nanyue, although it is difficult to personally go into battle to kill the enemy.

But the sword that should be there, the sword that should be used for ceremonies, is still essential.

Of course, the jade in the coffin is not only these 10 jade swords!

On the head and feet of the jade clothes, there are also delicate jade ornaments.

There is a double piece under the pair of shoes, the top of the hood and both sides of the jade ornament 1 piece, at the top is a piece of blue and white jade withered beast head ring, the right is the tiger head golden hook jade dragon, the left is the phoenix pattern brand shaped Pei through the withering.

In addition, the mask is also covered with a piece of jade with a withered dragon pattern and a jade with a withered dragon and phoenix pattern.

On the jade pendant, there are 8 pieces of apricot-shaped vertebral gold sheets, arranged in an orderly manner, and each piece of gold has a pair of small holes for threading up and down and on both sides.

Chen Han pointed to these gold pieces and said, "These gold ornaments should be a curtain sewn on silk silk, right?" ”

"The so-called blindness."

"Etiquette and Funeral": "Eyes are used with a tie, two feet square, wrapped in a skew, and a group."

The so-called curtain refers to the scarf that covers the face of the deceased, which is mainly used to cover the face of the person after death, which is often referred to as the covering surface later.

It is made of silk and is a two-foot square, with four corners with bands, and a red lining, filled with floc.

This is a funeral ritual system that originated in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

"Huh... Something is wrong. ”

After seeing this covering, Chen Han suddenly reacted.

These 8 pieces of gold are sewn on silk silk by sewing and embellishment.

Because the tomb was not well preserved, all the silk objects were completely decayed, leaving no traces, except for the eight perforated gold plates.

So here's the problem.

"Professor Li, the golden thread of jade, the golden thread of jade, where did the golden thread on the jade coat of the tomb owner go?"

Chen Han waved his hand, and finally reacted, why did he feel that something was wrong after seeing the jade piece of the golden jade robe in the coffin.

"Even if the golden thread is broken, it will still exist in the coffin!"

"Gold is a very stable metal, and it is impossible to disappear in two thousand years!"

He didn't care that the coffin was full of treasures, and reached out and pulled a few times in the jade pieces scattered in the coffin.

It's white, it's so clean.

Not to mention the golden threads, not even the silver threads and copper threads have been seen.

In ancient China, the custom of embellishing jade to collect corpses became popular from the Warring States period, and evolved into jade clothes as funeral clothes in the Western Han Dynasty, believing that this could prevent the corpse from decomposing.

By the Eastern Han Dynasty, a complete hierarchy of the use of jade clothes had been developed and formed.

Depending on the status, the threads used are also different.

Emperors and empresses can use jade clothes sewn with gold thread, which is golden thread jade clothes.

The princes and kings, the first generation of princes, nobles, and princesses used silver jade clothes.

And the nobleman and the eldest princess use copper jade clothes.

However, this system was not completely formed until the Eastern Han Dynasty, and in the Western Han Dynasty, there was already such a thing.

In the Western Han Dynasty, there was no such perfect system, so in the tombs of the princes and kings of the Western Han Dynasty, all the top gold and jade clothes were found.

For example, Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, and his wife Dou Juan.

A piece of the King of Chu of the Western Han Dynasty in Xuzhou.

One of Liu Xing, the filial piety king of Zhongshan, and one of Liu Xiu, the Huai king of Zhongshan in the Western Han Dynasty.

They were all princes and kings, and they all wore golden jade clothes.

This leads to the fact that in the archaeological community, it is generally believed that the princes and kings of the Western Han Dynasty should all use the same level of golden jade clothes as the emperor.

It is not as clear as the Eastern Han Dynasty, and can only use silver jade clothes.

This is also the reason why Ling An exclaimed the golden jade clothes as soon as he found the jade piece before.

This tomb of the king of Nanyue was from the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and there were no such detailed rules and regulations at that time.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's elder brother also used a golden jade robe.

So everyone had a preconceived idea, thinking that the king of Nanyue was also wearing a golden jade robe, but they didn't think about it.

Now after seeing these 8 gold pieces with wire holes, Chen Han suddenly reacted.

Gold doesn't decay!

Even if the golden jade clothes in the coffin are scattered, there should be a bunch of golden threads!

Take a step back and say, if there is no gold thread, there must be copper thread and silver thread.

Otherwise, how can the thousands of jade pieces on this jade robe be connected?

Professor Li, Director Fu and others looked at Chen Han back and forth, and there was a bit of solemnity in their eyes.

"Find!"
