Chapter 305 Confucius Screen
10 fairly complete wooden tablets, 16 fragments, sounds like a lot.
But in fact, there is not much content recorded above.
In addition to the affiliation of hundreds of officials, there is no other content after the proposal of local officials→the meeting of central officials→the emperor’s consent becomes the highest will→the clear documented process that is communicated to the localities step by step.
Of course, due to the damage, some handwriting on the imperial edict was still unclear and difficult to distinguish, and it was impossible to figure it out in a short time.
But its content can already be determined.
This is a copy of the "Haihunhou Kingdom Removal Edict" from the period of Emperor Xuan of the Western Han Dynasty!
This is a copy of the "Edict of Removing the Country" signed by Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty himself.
The written records are almost exactly the same as the process of Haihunhou's extermination of the country described in the history books...
This is the first physical object of the Western Han Dynasty Edict unearthed so far!
The edict records the history of Haihun Hou's extermination of the country after Liu He's death!
It also records the exact date of Liu He's death, and the time when his two sons died!
This is a cultural relic comparable to a national treasure!
To put it bluntly, when this "Edict of Removing the Country" is fully sorted out, it will become a new treasure of the country!
It is the most important cultural relic achievement of Western Han Dynasty archaeology!
This is an "Emperor's Edict"!
It is still an edict from 2000 years ago!
Chen Han finished reading the imperial edict, feeling a sense of emotion in his heart.
We can be regarded as people who have read the emperor's edict.
And still watch the original.
Or the edict written by the emperor of the Western Han Dynasty!
This is an extremely precious and rare treasure that has never been seen in history books!
At the last moment of Liu He's life, he may have left this world full of regret.
However, more than 2000 years later, he was remembered by the world in another way, and his sensational effect was no less than that of any emperor of the Han Dynasty!
In a sense, he did what many emperors in the Western Han Dynasty could not do.
It can be predicted that in the next few years, when the various archaeological results of Haihunhou's tomb are released to the public one after another, Haihunhou Liu He will become one of the most famous "Emperors of the Han Dynasty" from being unknown before. .
His ups and downs in life, his thrilling political struggles, his failed second half of his life, and his tragic experience after death will all be known to the public and passed on by word of mouth.
He will become a well-known "emperor" figure in the Western Han Dynasty like Emperor Han Gao, Emperor Han Wen, and Emperor Han Wu!
If he knows it underground, he doesn't know whether it's joy or sorrow...
Chen Han believes that it should be sad.
But for the archaeological community, this is definitely a happy event, a great happy event!
The discovery of the first "Edict of Removing the Kingdom" of the Han Dynasty princes in the tomb of Haihunhou soon caused a sensation in the industry and attracted CCTV's media.
Since the excavation, Haihunhou Tomb, which has become the center of public discussion and attention, once again ignited the attention of all the public!
Since the excavation of Haihunhou's tomb, the excavation results have been continuously announced to the outside world.
When a large amount of gold and several tons of copper coins were issued in the tomb, they were already on the top of Weibo, attracting the attention of countless netizens.
This time, the appearance of an "Edict to Exterminate the Country" directly appeared on CCTV's news report!
Although Haihunhou's tomb is only the tomb of a lieutenant, its influence has surpassed that of many emperors' tombs!
And Liu He is indeed worthy of such attention!
In his tomb, there are simply too many great discoveries that refreshed the history of archaeology and filled the gaps in the history of the Han Dynasty!
Just when the CCTV reporters came to the archaeological base, they took photos of the content of the "Edict of Removing the Country" and conducted a brief interview.
Before these reporters left the archaeological base.
Another shocking discovery was made in Haihunhou's tomb!
To be precise, a new discovery has been confirmed!
Rewind the clock a few months.
When the archaeologists were cleaning the outer chamber of the main coffin of Haihunhou's tomb, they found a screen whose main body was torn apart and many pieces of lacquered wood were scattered on the side.
The images and text on this screen are also stained to varying degrees, but the shadow of the screen can be vaguely seen from the lacquered wood structure.
It's just because the pollution is very serious, there is too much sludge on the screen, and it is impossible to see what is painted.
Therefore, when this screen was discovered, it did not attract much attention.
However, after the screen was handed over to cultural relic restoration personnel for cleaning and restoration, the situation on the screen gradually emerged.
This is a "Confucius screen" with a portrait of Confucius painted on it!
Moreover, the portrait on the screen subverted scholars' inherent cognition of Confucius!
As we all know, whether it is the portraits of Confucius in ancient times or the image of Confucius in today's film and television dramas, the body characteristics are slightly fat and the forehead is full. For thousands of years, people have firmly believed in this.
Although the image of Confucius has been recorded in history books, it is all said by outsiders.
For example, "Confucius is nine feet long and six inches long. People call him 'elder man' and it varies." This is recorded in "Historical Records".
"Cultivate up and go down, bend the end and listen to the ears." This is the record in "Zhuangzi".
According to Zhuangzi, Confucius has a long upper body and a short lower body. Not only that, but he also has a hunchback, and his ears are not protruding and stick to the back.
Tai Shigong also described the appearance of Confucius. The top of his head is concave in the middle and high on all sides.
There are also descriptions that Confucius' forehead is very high and has obvious protrusions.
Generally speaking, the image of Confucius is not clear, what is certain is that he should be tall.
The origin of the portraits of Confucius, which are common to modern people, can only be traced back to the Northern Song Dynasty at the earliest.
The so-called statues of Confucius in some Confucian temples were copied from the paintings of Confucius' disciple Zi Gong, but they were actually copied from the stone carvings of Confucius in the Northern Song Dynasty.
It was not handed down in the late Spring and Autumn Period at all.
So far, the earliest portraits of Confucius that can be found are those unearthed from the tombs of the Eastern Han Dynasty. There are many portraits in them, of Laozi, Confucius, and their disciples.
However, these portraits only generally describe a "portrait of a group of sages" or "portraits of Confucius and his disciples".
That is to say, among so many characters, experts have no way of distinguishing which one is Confucius and which one is a disciple of Confucius.
In fact, most people who study history are confused about what Confucius looked like.
As a result, the portraits of Confucius, with exposed teeth, hunchback and arched hands, etc., are all imagined based on the images recorded in some history books after the Han Dynasty.
but!
Now a portrait of Confucius has been unearthed from the tomb of Marquis Haihun, which may reveal the true face of Confucius!
Because, on the screen of Haihunhou's tomb, there are two figures on the left and right.
And, next to the character, who is the character is very intimately written!
Next to the portrait on the left, the word "Confucius" is clearly written!
And the portrait on the right has the word "Yan Hui" written down!
Yan Hui is a direct disciple of Confucius!
Although the portrait was severely corroded due to its age and the tomb of Haihunhou was flooded due to the earthquake, although the text is clearly visible, the two figures in the portrait are somewhat blurred.
However, it can still be seen that Confucius in the portrait is a slender and elegant man, with the top of his head no different from ordinary people!
However, Confucius in Sima Qian's works is a tall, mighty, strange-looking man.In particular, "born at the top of the polder", it shows that Confucius's head is deformed, the top of the head is low and the circumference is high, and the head is extremely abnormal!
Obviously, the portrait of Confucius in the Confucius screen subverts the traditional cognition!
