Chapter 220: Whose Tomb Is This?
Rewind the time to a few days.
On the afternoon of April 12, 2020.
In Guanxi Village, Datangping Township, Nanchang Xinjian District, Jiangxi Province, a villager named Ju Deyu has nothing to do, and plans to go up the mountain for a walk and step on some wild goods to eat at home.
In April, it is the time when the mountain delicacies are in the soil, and the mountain delicacies at this time are very tender and very tasty.
Carrying a hoe, Jude Yu went up the mountain in rain boots.
It's just that he hasn't picked many mountain treasures on this trip to pick wild goods, and he accidentally found a deep well on the mountain.
Next to the wellhead, there is also a tool that wraps around the cable.
How could anyone come to dig a well in this wilderness?
Jude Yu stepped forward curiously to look, and the "well" between them was bottomless, and it was so dark that he couldn't see anything.
Immediately, he sensed that something was wrong.
After a little pondering, Jude Yu pondered the taste, where is this well!
This is clearly a thief hole!
After thinking about this, he immediately took out his mobile phone and contacted the city's cultural relics bureau.
Every year, the city's cultural relics bureau goes to the countryside to publicize the dangers of tomb robbing and how to contact them if they find a cave.
"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"
Jiangxi has been the long-term residence of the Chinese people since the beginning of the Chu State, not to mention that there are many dynasties in history that have developed Jiangxi many times.
Therefore, there are a lot of ancient tombs in Jiangxi.
In addition, Jiangxi is mountainous, and there are also many legends of noble tombs.
Therefore, in the field of tomb robbery, Jiangxi is also a relatively popular place.
Every year, there are many tomb robber gangs, drilling around in the mountains of Jiangxi, trying to find some tombs and get rich overnight.
Naturally, the local cultural relics bureau has also done a good job in publicizing the protection of cultural relics and how to deal with the discovery of stolen caves.
Jude Yu's phone call went out, and after reporting it layer by layer, it quickly alarmed the Jiangxi Cultural Relics Bureau.
The Jiangxi Cultural Relics Bureau immediately dispatched an archaeological team from the Jiangxi Institute of Archaeology and the local police to conduct an archaeological investigation of the area around the cave.
Sheng Yiding, a researcher from the Jiangxi Institute of Archaeology, arrived at the scene, and after surveying, it was quickly determined that it was a robbery cave and that it was 15 meters deep.
And this thief hole is very professionally excavated!
Looking at the swarthy hole in front of him, Sheng Yiding's mood was very complicated.
In this way, the cultural relics have been stolen and may have been seriously damaged, which is a huge loss for the country.
But it has already happened, and no amount of regret will help.
Sheng Yiding had no choice but to report the situation immediately.
Soon, the director of the Jiangxi Institute of Archaeology personally led the team, with an archaeological team composed of more than 20 members of the Jiangxi Institute of Archaeology and the Nanchang Institute of Archaeology, and went up the mountain to begin to explore the stolen tomb.
"According to local villagers, there was a group of outsiders in the village who slept during the day and wandered around the nearby Dundun Mountain with flashlights at night."
"This Dundun Mountain is the ancestral grave place of the local villagers."
"However, due to the age, most of the graves have been moved, and now few villagers will come here to worship their ancestors."
"It is estimated that it is also for this reason that some tomb robbers have targeted the tombs on Dundun Mountain."
He Yang, the leader of the Nanchang Archaeological Institute, seriously informed everyone in the archaeological team of the news he heard from the villagers.
"No, this will definitely not be an ordinary villager's ancestral tomb!" Wen Yuangen, director of the Jiangxi Institute of Archaeology, who was squatting next to the robbery cave and frowning, said: "I have measured it just now. ”
"This thief hole is actually fifteen meters deep!"
"Fifteen meters! This is the standard above the royal tomb in all dynasties! ”
The fifteen-meter-deep thief cave is obviously not an ordinary villager's ancestral grave.
Besides, the ancestral graves of ordinary villagers can't attract any tomb robbers.
Even if this villager is a landlord or a powerful person in the village, it is far from being able to tempt the tomb robbers.
"Which princes and kings in the history of Nanchang were sealed here?" Wen Yuangen touched his chin and thought.
"The feudal kings in Jiangxi in the Ming Dynasty have the Ning vassal royal line headed by Zhu Quan, the sixteenth son of Zhu Yuanzhang, who established a country in the Nanchang area!"
"No, Zhu Quan's tomb has been discovered, in Huangyuan Village, Shibu Town, next door to the new district!"
"What about the other royal tombs of the Ning Dynasty?"
"I didn't find it."
Several archaeologists whispered to each other about which princes and kings who lived in Nanchang in history in this fifteen-meter-deep royal tomb.
After discussing for a while, everyone roughly judged that this tomb should be the tomb of King Ning.
Before the Ming Dynasty, there were no princes and kings who were named Nanchang.
In the Ming Dynasty, the line of King Ning was sealed in Nanchang.
Therefore, this tomb should be the tomb of the Ning Wang family of the Ming Dynasty.
I just don't know which King Ning is.
Just after the preliminary determination, Wen Yuangen planned to apply to the above for a salvage excavation of the tomb.
A researcher from the Nanchang Institute of Archaeology raised his hand weakly and said, "That... Is it possible that this tomb is the tomb of the Marquis of Haidu? ”
As soon as his question came out, all the archaeologists present were stunned.
Marquis of the sea dusk.
This is an unusual character.
The Marquis of Haiyang was knighted by the Western Han Dynasty, inherited by later generations, and passed down for 4 generations, which continued until the Eastern Han Dynasty. The first generation of the Marquis of Haiyang was the king of Changyi, that is, Liu He, the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
This Emperor Liu He of the Han Dynasty is not ordinarily famous.
Just because he is Huo Guang, a powerful minister of the Western Han Dynasty, the emperor who was deposed single-handedly!
His life was very tortuous, and he experienced three changes in his status as king, emperor and marquis during his 33 years of life.
He was the grandson of Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the son of Liu Ji, the king of Changyi, the ninth emperor of the Western Han Dynasty, and the shortest reigning emperor in the history of the Western Han Dynasty.
Even the emperor who was not officially recognized by the Western Han Dynasty later.
In the first year of the Later Yuan Dynasty (88 BC), Liu Ji, the king of Changyi, died.
In the first year of the first century (86 years ago), Liu He was on the throne, at the age of four or five, and became the second king of Changyi in the Western Han Dynasty.
In the first year of Yuanping (74 BC), Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty died, and because he had no children, Liu He was conscripted into the court and made him the crown prince.
On June Bingyin Day, Liu He accepted the emperor's seal and inherited the emperor's honorific title.
However, Liu He has been on the throne for more than ten days, and Huo Guang has plotted with Zhang Anshi to abolish him.
On the 27th day of Liu He's reign, he was deposed as a concubine because of his excessive immorality and lack of social protection, and was known as the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.
The emperor who succeeded him was Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, who later revived the Western Han Dynasty!
And Liu He, after being deposed as the emperor, was not given death, but was renamed the Marquis of Haidu, and went to Haihuang County, Yuzhang County to take up the country.
In the fourth year after his reign, Liu He ended his bumpy and tortuous life in his fiefdom of Haiyang County.
The body of this Marquis of Haidun is full of mystery and legend.
After all, his identity has undergone a transformation from king to emperor to prince.
And being in the center of the whirlpool, he personally experienced and witnessed how Huo Guang, who leaned towards the government and the opposition, abolished the monarch.
Perhaps it is because of this that he died early at the age of thirty-three.
If this tomb is really the tomb of the Marquis of Haiding, it is too ordinary!
