Chapter 570
"The quality of jade and the spirit of the dragon together form the national character of the Chinese nation, which deeply affects each of us and makes us different from other civilizations and other nations in the world."

Everyone nodded, feeling that the blood was connected with these treasures in the museum.

"There are more than 100 characters about jade in our country, and many of them are next to the word Wang, because the early characters for jade don't have that point. Jade represents king. If you look at the characters of Guo, it means a group of people surround jade, that is, surround the king. .

Words related to jade are beautiful.Chinese characters are very complex and have changeable meanings, but only jade, people really love it deeply and purely, it can be said to be the only favorite.

Later, people collectively referred to all good things as treasures.Do you know what treasure is? "

The audience all looked at him.

"There is an eave above the jade character. We have just seen the shape of Liangzhu's house in the front exhibition hall. Is it like that? The jade is surrounded by a city wall called the country, so the jade under the eaves is a treasure. It is the jade at home.

At this time, it was not only used as a ritual vessel, but also began to be decorative, and even not only a noble product, but began to become owned by every family, pursued by everyone, privatized, and their own jade was a treasure. "

He Huan subconsciously carried Long Teng into his arms, and he continued to talk, but everyone laughed.

Long Teng's face also turned slightly red, but he was also very happy, feeling how precious he was to him.

"If there is a pig in the house, it is called home; if there is jade in the house, it is called treasure."

"Hahahaha..." Some mischievous audiences began to call the little pigs around them.

He Huan embraced Longlong, feeling elated, anyway, his possessions are treasures, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't have a home.

For each exhibit, He Huan explained clearly and interestingly its source, its representative meaning, its level at the same time, and its connection with other cultures.Although staying for a long time, everyone is not in a hurry.

I failed to go to the ruins, but saw photos of the ruins and imagined paintings of the ancient Liangzhu Kingdom.

He Huan said: "The reason Liangzhu culture is called the Liangzhu kingdom by some scholars is that it has city walls and palaces, which are square and square, which is the style of a capital city.

We generally believe that the formation of a national system is the beginning of civilization.Because people have not found evidence of the Xia Kingdom, historians have always believed that the history of 5000 years is an exaggeration.

However, before the Xia Kingdom, Liangzhu already had a rudimentary state, with a clear social division of labor, a clear hierarchy, and a system of etiquette, which has also become a demonstration of the 5000-year history of China.

In this kingdom, in addition to farmers who could make and use advanced tools such as stone plows, handicrafts and textile industries also emerged. They polished jade and spun cloth.

Textile utensils and silk products, as we have just seen, the Silk Road began in the north, but the origin of silk should be in the south of the Yangtze River. From 1 to 5000 years ago, the ancestors of Wuyue land established the land of fish and rice and the land of silk in the south of the Yangtze River. status.

Up to now, it is still the free shipping area in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, right? "

Everyone laughed.

"The home textile industry has flourished for thousands of years. In addition to the development of agriculture and handicrafts, the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River has also spawned many celebrities. Talented scholars from the south of the Yangtze River have been famous throughout the ages! There are also beauties from the south of the Yangtze River."

Everyone looked at Long Teng, He Huan took Miss Long into his arms like protecting a baby, the audience all laughed, it really is a treasure!Long Teng's face was flushed and his heart was full of sweetness.

"In a developed place, the progress of civilization will always be faster. We just saw that their craftsmanship is very exquisite and complex, which is very rare in the era of pure handicrafts.

This shows that the food is enough, and some people can engage in handicrafts, and exchange the jade and cloth they make for food, and the barter exchange is very prosperous.This also gave birth to the initial business.So Zhejiang merchants are very powerful!

There are even a group of people living in luxurious palaces, surrounded by beautiful jade and costumes.However, such a prosperous civilization suddenly disappeared. Why? "

Everyone looked at him.

"We all know that human ancestors have a common memory of floods. Water is the source of breeding civilization. Liangzhu is a beautiful small island in the water. , with flood control in mind.

There are also traces of seawater erosion in the ruins.In the cultural sites of the same period, traces of floods have been found in the land of Huaxia.It shows that in the late Neolithic Age, human beings experienced a great flood.

In that flood, the ancestors of Liangzhu may have lost their homeland, moved and integrated into other civilizations.Might also disappear in Clash of Clans.So far, the story of Xia Yu killing Fangfeng is still circulating in the Qiantang River Basin.

Everyone knows that Dayu controlled the floods.This story was born during the time of the Great Flood.In the Qiantang River Basin, there are many stories about Dayu, one of which is that Dayu heard that the Fangfeng family in the south of the Yangtze River was very good at controlling floods.

There is indeed a set. From the prehistoric sites in the Qiantang and Taihu Lake basins, it can be seen that the ancestors of Wu and Yue lived in a talented and prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River, with fertile soil and rich water systems, but they were often affected by disasters because of the water.

The ancestors of Liangzhu settled in the Qiantang River Basin and began to struggle with nature.Fangfeng is a person who is very good at water control.

In the records, he is not like an ordinary human being, he is a giant with long arms and legs and extraordinary abilities.Dayu learned a lot of water control experience from Fangfeng.

After successfully controlling the waters, Yu ruled Kyushu and convened a conference of all nations. I don’t know if it was the first time or the second time. From those rare records, it can be speculated that a conference should be held in Kuaiji, that is, Shaoxing.

This is actually a meeting of princes. If you hold a meeting and call the leaders from all over the country, the meaning is very clear, that is, the masters of the world.

If Dayu really convened the Ten Thousand Nations Conference, and many leaders attended the meeting, it means that the Xia clan is very powerful, and Dayu's status is equivalent to that of the emperor.

Although it was not centralized at that time, it already had this meaning, that is, I am a big country and you are a small country, so you have to give me this face.

But Fangfeng, thinking that he also knew Dayu, and often went to control the floods himself, and Kuaiji was nearby, he was outside to deal with floods at that time, and he arrived in mud on the third day of the meeting. Dayu felt that he was underestimated.

The subordinates encouraged him, saying that Fangfeng didn't respect the king!He lived so close, but came the latest, obviously he didn't take you seriously, the king!Dayu was unhappy, so he killed Fangfeng.

After Dayu killed Fangfeng, he toured the south of the Yangtze River and found that people silently sacrificed to Fangfeng, missed Fangfeng, ignored him, and were obviously dissatisfied with him. Dayu regretted it, and later died in Kuaiji. People built Dayu in Kuaiji Mountain. Mausoleum.

This is a story. There are many stories about Dayu's water control, stories about Dayu and Fangfeng in the south of the Yangtze River, which also proves the existence of Dayu.

Dayu was the leader of the tribes in the Central Plains in the Yellow River Basin, but his tomb and stories appeared in the south of the Yangtze River.This in itself shows that the Xia Dynasty was real.

But the ancient kingdom of Liangzhu has disappeared. The first possibility is that the flood swallowed it. When Qin Shihuang visited Kuaiji, there was still water here. Qin Shihuang came to sacrifice to Dayu. Of course, this is not the purpose. .

Until Qianlong, the emperors of all dynasties loved touring the world, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, and they must sacrifice to Dayu.Of course, sacrificing mountains and rivers and ancient emperors is to show their orthodox status of being ordered by heaven.

If Yu Dayu was the leader of the tribes in the Central Plains, he was the first emperor to tour the south of the Yangtze River after he settled in Kyushu.He made a start, and the emperor behind him followed him around the south of the Yangtze River. "

"Another point may be war. The co-owners of the world can't just rely on meetings, reasoning is not enough, and finally they have to fight.

Everyone has started to settle down, and they are about to grab the land.Therefore, in the history of our country, it is relatively rare for the south to attack the north, and the north is basically the first to attack.

This is caused by climate and geographical factors. The south has the conditions for settlement, so there is no need to go outside to grab land.But the north is cold and there are few fields, what should we do?They can only migrate to the south, and there will be fights during the migration.

Therefore, it is most likely that the dual factors of nature and war caused the disappearance of the ancient Liangzhu state.

Some people moved north to the Central Plains and integrated into the Central Plains culture such as the Longshan culture and the northern culture, so the reflection and continuation of the Liangzhu culture can be seen in the Longshan culture.

Based on this, some scholars also proposed that the Liangzhu people moved to the Central Plains and established the Xia Dynasty, becoming the ruling class of the Xia Dynasty.There is also a saying that Dayu was from Jiangnan, the ancestor of Liangzhu, and Yue people were descendants of Dayu.

In another record, both Yao, Shun, and Yu attacked Sanmiao, that is, the legendary Chiyou tribe who led the panda-riding clan, that is, the Jiuli tribe, which lived in the Hanjiang Plain in the Yangtze River Basin. and scattered, one of them became three seedlings.

This is a sturdy tribal group, with witchcraft and punishment, created myths, and the level of civilization may even surpass that of the Huaxia Group.San Miao thinks that the Yellow River Plain is good and can expand the territory.Huaxia Group said that I think your place is also good, you can go south to expand the territory.

So war is imminent.The war between these two groups is the war between the Yellow River Tribal Alliance and the Yangtze River Tribal Alliance.

The war lasted for a long time. When Yu succeeded to the throne, when Sanmiao was hit by an earthquake, he said that they did not respect etiquette and heaven and earth.This is exactly killing you while you are sick.

At that time, Dongyi had already been subdued by the Huaxia Group during the war, and Yu asked Dongyi to help fight Sanmiao.It is the ethnic group represented by Fangfeng. They use birds as their totems, and one by one with big wings, they suddenly fly to the battlefield, and the pandas turn their heads and run into the mountains. "

The audience all laughed.

"Holding the banner of doing justice for the heavens, with the help of Dongyi, another wave of war was launched for the Sanmiao who had just suffered natural disasters, and the Sanmiao was directly beaten from the Yangtze River Basin to the wild areas in the northwest and southwest. The Huaxia Group won the final victory .

Fighting is not enough to conquer. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang strengthened his rule over the southwest. Throughout his dynasty, in the process of using troops against Yunnan and Guizhou, he encountered strong resistance from the Miao people.Nanban is tough, it has been tough since the Yanhuang era.

In the last three expeditions to Luchuan, although the main battlefield was on the border of Yunzhou, they had to pass through Guizhou, with Guizhou as the rear.How about saying that Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Chongqing are one family?Or the Yangtze River Group! "

"Hahaha……"

"From the southwest to the southeast, natural disasters and wars caused some Wuyue ancestors to go north and integrate into the culture of the Central Plains, and some entered the southeast coastal hills, so that the first emperor who truly unified China later fought Baiyue very hard.

In fact, it is possible that your own people beat your own people, if it was all formed by the dispersion of Wuyue ancestors.Anyway, human beings migrated and fought back and forth, and they became a family long ago.

Zhang Qian in the Han Dynasty discovered that Yunzhou was a mysterious nation unknown in the south anyway, also known as Yue and Dianyue.Qin Huang conquered Baiyue, and Han Wu conquered Yunnan and Yue, and it was not long.

In the Ming Dynasty, people from the south of the Yangtze River immigrated to Yunzhou. Liu Bowen said that there are thousands of rivers in the south of the Yangtze River, and thousands of mountains in Yunnan and Guizhou. Looking at it 500 years later, Yungui is better than Jiangnan.

Of course, he did it to lure the people in the south of the Yangtze River to Yunnan and Guizhou.Shun did this thing early in the morning, and he also dealt with San Miao. Yu said that San Miao was disobedient, so let's beat him.

Shun said that he was tired and stopped fighting, and moved our people to their interior, spread our culture, and changed their customs.

This is cultural osmosis.Conquer by force while using cultural influence.

Zhu Yuanzhang did the same thing. If he refused to accept it, he was beaten until he was convinced, and if he still refused to accept it after being beaten, he could only work hard for the people in the south of the Yangtze River to spread the culture of the Central Plains.

Therefore, Yunzhou preserves many Jiangnan-style places, homesickness in other places, and traditions are often passed down better in other places, which is nostalgia.Tengchong is called Xiaojiangnan.

Of course, the whole country is called Xiaojiangnan, and there are many Jiangnan.Because everyone loves Jiangnan so much. "

The citizens are proud.

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did the same thing at the beginning. He dispatched Lu Jia, a descendant of Lu Buwei, a minister of Nanyue Kingdom, one of Baiyue, to Baoshan, the center of Ailao Kingdom."

Everyone listened with gusto. They never expected that from ancient times to the present, Yunzhou and Jiangnan are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, but they have such a deep connection.

"600 years have passed, and the south of the Yangtze River is still developed. But the people of Yunzhou, especially the Han people, do most of their hometowns are in the south of the Yangtze River. So don't be black in the region."

Everyone laughed.

"Of course, in the end, it was dark and dark, and it was still a family."

"Hahaha……"

"The records of that era are too few and too vague, and there are many contradictory statements. At present, all these can only be conjectures. The only thing that is certain is that, 5000 years ago, the various civilizations in the land of China began frequent exchanges and exchanges. fierce collision.

In the frequent exchanges and wars between people and nature and between tribes, they finally gathered the first dynasty with specific records, which is also regarded as the beginning of Chinese civilization, Shang.

The land of China has a clear national system, Jiang Ziya enshrines the gods, and the gods also have a system. The Chinese nation has shifted from the primitive worship of animism to the worship of specific gods. "

After seeing the last exhibit in the last exhibition hall, He Huan smiled and looked at the large crowd behind him, "Okay, let's stop here today."

Everyone is full of ideas.

"Little Bailong! Where are you going tomorrow?" an audience member asked.

He Huan thought about it carefully, and everyone looked at him expectantly. In fact, most of the people who come to the museum are local citizens. Tourists prefer the West Lake and Qiantang River, as well as some Internet celebrity neighborhoods.

"I won't tell you." He Huan said after thinking about it seriously.

Everyone laughed, very helpless.

Also, if he said it, there would definitely be a huge crowd of people tomorrow.

There were still few people in the museum, so Xiao Bailong finished the lecture by himself.

Walking outside, before reaching the door, a few people came up to meet them, smiling and stretching out their hands, "Xiao Bailong, although you are about to go out now, I still want to say: welcome!"

The audience consciously dispersed and went out contentedly, looking forward to meeting Xiao Bailong again tomorrow.
