Master Archaeologist

Chapter 129 Tang Hou gave Sui Hou a gui!

"Student Chen Han, right?"

"Your guess has a complete logical chain, and the inference is quite reasonable."

"If you can complete some detailed arguments, you can write a very content paper."

Professor Zheng Xian looked at Chen Han very kindly, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I didn't come to our Institute of Archeology and Cultural Museum to study for a doctorate!"

Based on this inscription on Mijia's chime, Chen Hanneng can fully deduce such a generational marriage line between Zeng and Chu.

It even perfected the cause of Zeng Guo's demise.

Although it is all just speculation and inference.

But being able to make such complete guesses and inferences with this amount of information is already quite remarkable.

Even Professor Zheng Xian himself needs to think again and again, and think carefully, and maybe he can sort out the connection between these inscriptions and historical records.

Just from the perspective of students, Chen Han is undoubtedly very good.

If such a doctoral student is in the School of Archeology and Museology of Peking University, then after graduating with a doctoral degree, he can really "proud of his alma mater".

It is really a pity to miss such an outstanding student.

Fortunately, Chen Han studied at Peking University as an undergraduate, and his Ph.D. institution was at the Academy of Social Sciences.

The Academy of Social Sciences is not considered a school, but an academic institution.

So in the future, Peking University can still be advertised as Chen Han's alma mater.

This is the only thing that can comfort Professor Zheng Xian.

The middle-aged professor who taught Chen Han the Xia, Shang and Zhou archeology for a school year also looked at Chen Han with some doubts in his eyes.

Although Chen Han was the number one major when he was in school, he wasn't that good.

Especially in terms of textual research and interpretation of inscriptions, Chen Han is in the impression that he is at the level of an average student, and he did not have a very outstanding performance in textual research and interpretation of inscriptions during school.

If there was, he would have been snatched away by the group of professors who studied oracle bone inscriptions, and went to purely academic research.

Where is there any chance to come to do field archaeology?

Those who study oracle bones are more lacking than archeology!
But he hasn't seen Chen Han for a few years, maybe it's because Chen Han put a lot of effort into studying the bronze inscriptions later.

"Hey, Xiao Chen really treats each other with admiration for three days!" He praised with a smile on his face.

Chen Han smiled shyly: "We are still far behind the professors, and we still need to continue studying!"

"Where is it, classmate Chen is very good, we are all old."

"It's not good to be old, the newcomers are really good."

"I have to supervise and supervise my students when I go back. I used to think that my students are good, but now compared with Xiao Chen, I can't stand it."

The scene soon fell into a sound of praise for Chen Han.

In the face of this situation, Chen Han was able to handle it with ease.

He has been a "child of other people" since he was a child. He has experienced many such occasions, and he has already mastered how to deal with high emotional intelligence.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chen Han wanted to change the subject and asked if there were any other big discoveries in the Zaoshulin cemetery.

The senior who sent him a WeChat message, Qiao Lai, the 14th class, opened the door in a panic, and said excitedly: "Professor!"

"Tomb No. M191, a copper gui was unearthed from the tomb of Mrs. Mi Yu, Zeng Gongqiu's wife!"

"Professor Liu at the scene said that the inscription of 15 characters in four lines on the copper gui is "Tang Hou made the gui, Sui Hou Qiyong Fu Fu Tang Hou", but he is not sure if the translation is correct!"

"Go and confirm it!"

Upon hearing this, several professors who were still smiling and greeting Chen Han immediately dropped Chen Han and ran out.

After being stunned for a moment, Chen Han also hurriedly chased him out.

The Tang Marquis system follows the Marquis to go with the gui!
Listen, the name!

Tang Hou made a gui for Suihou!
Whatever you want!
This is undoubtedly once again providing heavyweight evidence that Zeng Sui is a country!

The appearance of the two words "Suihou" together is more convincing than the appearance of the single word "Sui"!

The cultural relics storage room is only four to five hundred meters away from Tomb M191. A group of people jogged and arrived at Tomb M500 in a few minutes.

"Where is the gui, where is the gui!" Professor Zheng Xian, holding his knees and breathing heavily, asked the excavators anxiously.

Several excavators who were surrounding a bronze vessel in the pit saw Professor Zheng Xian coming, immediately picked up the heavy gui, and walked up to show it to Professor Zheng Xian.

Several professors from the School of Archeology and Museology of Peking University immediately surrounded the gui with a diameter and height of more than 20 centimeters.

Chen Han, who was one step behind, didn't even have a chance to get close.

At this time, the embarrassment of foreigners is reflected.

Don't look at the praise that several professors gave Chen Han just now.

When it came time to discover such a large cultural relic, he, an outsider, would definitely not be able to squeeze into the inner circle.

"Wow!"

"It's really a gui made by Tang Hou for Sui Hou!"

"Maybe it's also because the gui was given by other princes, so it appears in the wife's tomb instead of the king's tomb!"

"This pair of semi-circular animal face ears are so exquisitely cast!"

"There is also a copper 鬲 placed in the abdomen!"

Listening to the exclamation and excited words of several professors, Chen Han felt his heart itch!
He also wanted to see what this gui looked like, especially the inscription!

After hesitating for a while, Chen Han hesitated, no matter how many professors were in front of him, he started to squeeze in.

"Student Chen Han! Classmate Chen Han!"

"Come, come, look at this inscription!"

Just as Chen Han was stepping to squeeze in, Professor Zheng Xian's greeting sounded from the inner circle.

Everyone stopped and slowly made way for Chen Han.

Chen Han immediately walked in quickly, and looked at the bronze gui being stroked by Professor Zheng Xian with a happy face.

"The inscription is at the bottom of the belly."

Professor Zheng Xian tilted the copper gui down, revealing the inscription cast on the bottom.

Three lines with four characters, and one line with three characters, add up to a total of four lines and fifteen characters.

"The system of the Marquis of the Tang Dynasty follows the Marquis to go with the gui, and the Marquis of the Tang Dynasty will always enjoy the blessings of the Marquis of Tang."

"That's right! It's the gui that Tang Hou gave to Sui Hou after making it!"

Tang State is a vassal state with very little sense of existence in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The earliest Tang State was the homeland of the ancient Tang State entrusted to his younger brother Shu Yu by King Cheng of Zhou after he destroyed the ancient Tang State.

Shu Yu is the protagonist in the famous allusion of "Tong Ye Feng Di".

Later, Shuyu's son Zixie ascended the throne and changed the country's name to Jin.

The state of Jin is naturally a well-known hegemony in the spring and Autumn period, and there is no doubt about its strength.

However, the Tang Dynasty did not end there.

The "Ancient Tang State" destroyed by King Zhou Cheng was established by Yao's descendants.

Later, when the Tang Kingdom was wiped out, after King Cheng enfeoffed his younger brother to the land of Tang, he did not completely exterminate the male clan of the ancient Tang Kingdom. People at that time were not fond of doing such exorcising things.

Yao's descendants were relocated to Suizhou and Zaoyang, and became neighbors with Suiguo.

However, this state of Tang made a wrong choice during the crucial battle between Wu and Chu. Tang Chenggong formed an alliance with Wu Wang Helu and Cai to defeat Chu.

Then the next year, Tang Chenggong was destroyed by the revengeful Chu State.

The Tang State also became part of the Chu State and disappeared from the historical records.

Counting the time, the Tang Kingdom still existed in the era of Zeng Gongqiu.

As a neighbor of Suiguo, it is quite possible for the two countries to have good relations.

This piece of the Tang Marquis System, which follows the Marquis, is the proof!
