Chapter 258: It's a pity that I met Emperor Xuan of Han.

After the bed was removed, a large number of artifacts were revealed.

Chen Han, Kong Jianwen, Professor Li, Zhuang Yunpeng, Lin Ya and others stood next to the pile of artifacts, constantly distinguishing.

"This must be a lacquerware, right?"

"It's a lacquer ear cup!"

"There's a bronze vessel stacked under the ear cup!"

"Hey, this should be a eucalyptus, inlaid copper edge!"

"This eucalyptus is quite big, and these cultural relics are placed on top of the eucalyptus."

"Yes, this is a eucalyptus, I don't know if it's silver or copper!"

"There's no need!"

Including those tripods, the cultural relics under the bed have revealed their true faces.

It is a piece of lacquerware and bronze piled on a eucalyptus table.

Most of them are utilitarians, used to hold things.

However, among these utensils, there is no figure of Gui.

"Didn't you find a single one?" Kong Jianwen touched his chin and thought suspiciously.

Ten tripods, but no dings.

What is this burial road number?

Chen Han, who had been thinking about it for several days, said uncertainly on the side: "Teacher, after the Western Han Dynasty, the Ding, which symbolized power in the Zhou Dynasty, was gradually delegated to the realm of daily utensils, and it was no longer as holy as the Western Zhou Dynasty, right?" ”

"After all, this is an era of rebuilding the system after the collapse of etiquette."

"Maybe this Marquis of Haidu, just didn't follow the Zhou etiquette and boldly chose ten tripods as a funeral?"

In the Zhou Dynasty, Ding was a status symbol, and different levels of nobles were buried with different levels of Gui.

But after arriving in the Western Han Dynasty, this system collapsed with a bang.

is still the same reason, everyone who understands Zhou Li is almost dead.

After the Qin State dominated the world and the chaotic times at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, as well as the officials who knew the "Zhou Rites", basically died.

By the time Liu Bang established the Western Han Dynasty, most of the court was mud-legged, and except for Zhang Liang, a Korean nobleman, there was no longer a noble bloodline.

The nobles surnamed Ji who were all over China at that time were all wiped out.

So by the time of the Western Han Dynasty, in fact, the funeral culture had also undergone great changes.

The biggest change is that the Western Han people die like life, and they advocate a new funeral system such as jade burial.

The yellow intestine inscription is inherited from the Western Zhou Dynasty, but the golden jade clothes are original to the Western Han people.

Similarly, the funeral system is no longer very common.

The system of weekly rites can be checked has basically continued, such as the heavy coffin system, such as covering the face, etc.

However, like the system of nine tripods and eight branches, it was not followed much in the Western Han Dynasty.

Whether it is a scholar or a king, there may not be any tombs to be seen.

In the Zhou Dynasty, it was strictly regulated, and the insurmountable system of nine tripods and eight guis did not seem to be taken much seriously in the Western Han Dynasty.

On the contrary, the Western Han Dynasty's own funeral systems such as golden jade clothes, yellow intestine inscriptions, Zigong, and toilets have become insurmountable and must be observed.

In other words, no one cares about the theoretical Shanghai Dusk Marquis Liu He, no matter how many tripods he accompanies to the funeral.

At least the Western Han Dynasty officials don't care much about this.

They only care about whether the Marquis of Haiyang wears golden jade clothes to bury without permission, and whether he uses yellow intestines to make up for it without permission.

"Don't exclude, Liu He may be trying to show his identity, so he played a sideshow and used Shiding to bury himself to express his unruly idea of being higher than the Son of Heaven?" Chen Han muttered.

Did Liu He have a grudge against Emperor Xuan of Han?

Absolutely! And it's huge!

In Liu He's eyes, Emperor Xuan of Han not only snatched the throne that should have belonged to him, but also put him under house arrest for more than ten years!

To say that Liu He did not hate Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty and had no resentment against him, it was impossible!

So how can you vent this resentment?

Under the circumstance that Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty firmly controlled the carriage of the Western Han Dynasty, when he was alive, Liu He would definitely not be able to express the slightest resentment.

Otherwise, he would be like his descendant, the successor Li Yu, chanting a song "When is the spring flower and autumn moon", and then he committed suicide.

Then Liu He's only choice was to disgust Emperor Xuan of Han after death.

How disgusting?

Of course, it is to use the sword of the previous dynasty to behead the officials of this dynasty!

During the two-week period, the Son of Heaven can accompany the burial of Jiuding!

Liu He just wants to bury himself with ten tripods, one more than the Son of Heaven!

It just so happens that by the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, the Jiuding system had gradually deteriorated and was no longer a symbol of the status of princes and nobles.

Liu He can be regarded as wiping the edges, but he has not completely wiped the edges.

At least he didn't use the yellow intestine inscription and wear a golden jade robe when Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty did not give it!

At most, it is to use the nine tripods and eight gui system of the previous dynasty to disgust Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.

And for the sake of prudence, he only used ten tripods and did not accompany the burial of a gui.

A complete system of nine tripods and eight tripods requires both tripods and tripods to represent power.

He only uses Ding, not Gui, which can be regarded as wiping the edge, but not completely wiping the edge.

Liu He's behavior can be regarded as a big move that he held back after a lifetime of grievances.

But the pity is that his behavior, in addition to being able to refresh himself, does not affect any of Emperor Xuan of Han.

Even Emperor Xuan of Han, who learned the news, probably just laughed it off, and this "laugh" was still a mocking laugh.

After thinking about this truth, Chen Han and Kong Jianwen's eyes were full of pity.

Feel pity for Liu He's dramatic life.

I also feel pity for him when he met such a male lord as Emperor Xuan of Han.

But what he encountered was not a male lord like Emperor Xuan of Han, but a cowardly or incompetent monarch.

Perhaps the Western Han Dynasty's version of the "change of seizing the door" is possible.

It's a pity that he met Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, the Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty who created Xiaoxuan Zhongxing and was nicknamed Zhongzong!

No matter how careful Liu He is, no matter how much resentment he has, he can only turn into the ten tripods in this tomb and do some ridiculous pranks.

"Hey, let's extract the easy-to-extract tripod first."

Sighing, Kong Jianwen no longer delved into this topic.

Leading Chen Han and Zhuang Yunpeng and a few people, squatting down, everyone began to extract this pile of bronzes.

These ten bronze tripods are not big, unlike the tripods of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, which are often tens of centimeters long and wide.

These tripods are all small tripods, and a diameter is only about ten centimeters. The height is around seven or eight centimeters.

However, the workmanship is very exquisite, far beyond Shang Zhouding's rough style.

In addition to the tripod, on this lacquered wood wrapped in copper eucalyptus, there are also some lacquer plates, incense burners, copper lamps and other cultural relics, some are easy to extract, some are stuck together and difficult to extract.

"Tap, tap!"

"Take your time, don't rush!"

"There's a leg missing!"

"This one is missing an ear!"

"Don't worry, I'll take a look!"

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, legs are here, take your time!"

In this flurry of discussions, tripods, incense burners, and copper lamps were extracted from the mud.

Of course, after more than 2,000 years of storage, most of these artifacts are a little damaged.

It's not uncommon to have fewer ears and legs.

But this is already a very good preservation.

At least the body is not broken into seven or eight pieces, and there is no need for follow-up cultural relics restorers to splice them piece by piece!

The cultural relics in the tomb of the Marquis of Haiyang are enough to surprise and satisfy the archaeologists.
