My system is not decent

Chapter 1769 Poor family, thin burial

Zhao Xihu likes calligraphy and painting, and is good at appreciating them. The book "Dongtian Qinglu" contains a lot of insights, such as pointing out that copper rhinoceros, Tianlu, toad, etc. with small bowls in their mouths as lamps is quite insightful.

Not only bronze ware, but also similar products made of porcelain, which should be identified and analyzed.

The above one says "the ancients have no water drops", which should be related to this article.

That is to say, although there were inkstones before the Song Dynasty, they were not common.

In the Song Dynasty, when inkstones were in the ascendant, ancient lamps were mistaken for inkstones.

Porcelain from the Song Dynasty, no matter what category it is, is considered genuine.

However, if we talk about antiques, it is the Han Dynasty that has higher cultural value, and of course, the Three Kingdoms.

Surprisingly, Chen Wenzhe discovered a blue-glazed rabbit-shaped inkstone from the Yue kiln in the Three Kingdoms period.

This piece is what Zhao Xihu referred to as the "oil storage and lighting lamp" device, which was mistaken for the "water drop" ear.

Although the toad drop is small, it can be explored deeply and broadly.

The ancients called the moon the Toad Palace, and if there are toads on the moon, then the toads are not ordinary natural creatures.

But why the three-legged toad shape appeared in the Song Dynasty should reflect the thoughts and concepts of the Song people.

Moreover, toads have a long history of being shaped as water vessels, and the relevant information is rich and complex.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Wenzhe wants to investigate and study in depth.

Of course, it must not be now, but now he wants to find out why there are inkstones from the Three Kingdoms period in a small private cellar that stores inkstones.

Needless to say, this must be an ancient tomb from the Three Kingdoms period, at least one.

Sure enough, I found this tragedy just after looking for it. The most important thing is that this inkstone probably came from Cao Cao's tomb.

The Three Kingdoms Cemetery is a collective name for the cemeteries built during the Three Kingdoms era (220~280).

During the Three Kingdoms era, heroes emerged in large numbers, and the tombs of many figures from the Three Kingdoms were hard to find, causing controversy.

The ancient tombs of this historical period are mainly divided into the cemetery of the figures of the Three Kingdoms, the tomb of the eighth year of Wei Zhengshi in Yangluo, the tomb of the Eastern Wu in Jinling, and the tomb of the Shu Han in Sichuan.

Among the ancient tombs of the Three Kingdoms period, the most famous one must be the tomb of Cao Cao.

Among the characters of the Three Kingdoms, Wei Wang Cao Cao (155~220) is the most sinister and suspicious.

Before his death, he was afraid that his enemies would dig up his grave, so he painstakingly managed the "72 Suspicious Tombs", which were distributed in Nanbeihe, Huizhou and other places.

Therefore, more than 1700 years after his death, there is still no historical record of his real tomb.

According to the research of relevant historians, it is most likely that Cao Cao's tomb is near the tombs of Cao Cao's clan in Hui Province.

In December 2009, the Nanhe Provincial Bureau of Cultural Relics announced that Gaoling was located in Xigaoxue Village, Anfeng Township, Anyang County, Nanhe Province, and was confirmed by the Nanhe Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology.

The tomb excavated in Anyang, Nanhe is undoubtedly the tomb of Cao Cao.

But some people think that this is not Cao Cao's tomb, because it is recorded that Cao Cao's tomb is in Ye County.

And this kind of inference is undoubtedly not groundless. For example, Chen Wenzhe's discovery this time is suspected to come from a tomb of Cao Cao?

Cao Cao's tomb generally refers to Anyang Gaoling, but this is certainly not accurate.

Covering an area of ​​about 740 square meters, this high mausoleum was first built in the 25th year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty (220).

Anyang Gaoling is composed of tomb passage, tomb door, door sealing wall, corridor, front and rear main rooms and four side rooms.

This is a large brick tomb with multiple chambers. The plane of the tomb is A-shaped, and the tombs face west to east.

The slope tomb passage is 39.5 meters long and 9.8 meters wide, and the deepest part is about 15 meters above the surface.

The plane of the tomb chamber is trapezoidal, wide at the front and narrow at the rear. The widest part on the east side is 22 meters wide, the narrowest part on the west side is 19.5 meters wide, and the east-west length is 18 meters. The area of ​​the tomb is close to 400 square meters.

It stands to reason that such a large ancient tomb should be regarded as Cao Cao's tomb.

However, the tomb of Cao Cao that Chen Wenzhe saw was not small in size.

Besides, Anyang Gaoling was also excavated by robbers.

According to the "Three Kingdoms. Wei Shu. Wu Di Ji", Cao Cao promulgated the "Final Order" in June of the 23rd year of Jian'an (218 AD).

"The ancient burials must live in barren land. According to the regulations, the west plain of the Ximen Leopard Temple is the Shouling Mausoleum. Because the height is the foundation, there are no seals and no trees."

The Ximen Leopard Temple is located on a high ground near the railway in Fengle Town Village, Anfeng Township, Anyang, and the ancestral hall has long since disappeared.

Before the location of Cao Cao’s tomb was a high mound, the brick factory dug earth to build a kiln, and gradually lowered the mound.

The tomb robbers found that the soil quality beside the brick factory was very strange. This high hill located in the southwest of Xigaoxue Village attracted the "patronage" of tomb robbers one after another.

Experts from the Institute of Archaeology also found several wall-cutting spikes left by tomb robbers in Cao Cao's tomb.

Experts speculate that at least before the Qing Dynasty, tomb robbers visited here.

As the first emperor in the history of our country to propose "thin burial", Cao Cao was the first to establish such official positions as "Faqiu Zhonglang General" and "Mojin Xiaowei" in the army.

The purpose is obviously to steal gold and silver to provide financial resources for their own troops.

Compared with other emperors and generals, Cao Cao's tomb is much more shabby, which is very suspicious.

If it is a real tomb, no matter how shabby an emperor is, it is impossible to produce so many cultural relics.

The idea of ​​an emperor's thin burial must be different from our modern people's thin burial.

For example, the poor families mentioned in ancient times have nothing to do with the children of poor families today.

It is often heard that "a poor family produces a noble child". As long as you study hard, even a poor family can have a day of prosperity and prosperity.

So, is reading the only way out?

In ancient times, were poor families all extremely poor?

The truth is that the poor families in ancient times were very different from what we usually think.

In ancient times, what class was the poor family?

What is the difference between ancient and modern poor families?
Do not check, I don’t know, I’m scared.

If you compare your current situation with the ancients, you can only be regarded as the level of the ancient "rogue".

However, this "rogue" is not that "rogue".

In ancient times, a hooligan meant a person who had no house or land.

And now, I am also floating up and down in this class.

Before consulting the information, many people thought that they were also considered poor.

But after checking the information and comparing it, I found that my current state is far from the poor family that the ancients said.

What modern people call "a poor family produces a noble son", the poor family here refers to people from poor families, and they can all be said to be poor.

And this precious son is a child who has been admitted to a good university and found a decent job with a high salary through continuous study.

However, in ancient times, not all people from poor families could be called "poor families".

A person with a few thatched huts and a few acres of Susukida is a rich peasant.

People with only a few houses but no fields were called "Liu" in ancient times.

People who only have fields but no houses are called "rogues" in ancient times.

People who have neither houses nor fields are called "hooligans" in ancient times.

In ancient times, "poor families" were not poor people in the true sense.

Because the poorest family among the "poor families" will also have some meager industries, as well as houses and fields.
