I dug the grave of the God of War

Chapter 40 Resolving Confusion (1)

The sky outside the window has darkened, and the lights on the street are brightening one after another.

There was light reflected from a window on the second floor of the institute.

Wen Qiqi's major had a strong interest in the study of historical documents, and he happened to be involved in the compilation of scientific research materials on ancient tombs. Therefore, he was full of curiosity about this god of war with outstanding achievements and handsome appearance, and instinctively began to collect everything related to him. material.

Unexpectedly, these are also what Wu Luoyang needs.

The clock on the wall has reached seven o'clock, one and a half hours past the off-duty time.The two people sat facing each other under the lamp. Wu Luoyang stuck his head and stretched his neck. His lowered eyes were following the words written by Wen Qiqi's fingertips as he read silently.

On March 260, the first year of Tai'an in the middle of Zhou Dynasty (21), Zhan Yunye was granted the title of Lingjun King.In the same year, he was awarded the title of Commander-in-Chief of Chijie, governor of all military affairs in Bingzhou, and governor of Bingzhou.In the second year of Tai'an (262), he was granted the title of Duke Kaiguo of Ling County, with a settlement of 264 households, and led the army.In May of the fourth year of Tai'an ([-]), he died on the battlefield. Due to his outstanding military exploits, he was deeply supported by the soldiers and the people. In the middle of the week, he was posthumously awarded the title of "God of War" and entered into the annals of history.

Therefore, there is no doubt about the identity of the Prince Zhan Yunye and the God of War.

But, there's something strange about it.

In ancient times, Zhan Yunye was of marriageable age at the age of [-] or [-]. After consulting various historical records, it was found that for such a handsome prince and general with outstanding military achievements and bravery, there was almost no record of the women around him. What kind of childhood sweethearts? There is no such thing as a blue-faced confidant.

The only thing that was briefly mentioned in writing was an imperial edict granting a daughter a marriage between him and the minister of the Ministry of War of the current dynasty.

The information recorded in historical records is unclear.

The general idea is that before the emperor was critically ill, he was still thinking about his young son of marriageable age who was on an expedition to the frontier. After Zhan Yunye won a certain battle, his emperor father was very happy and wrote a marriage letter to the Ministry of War. The daughter of the minister granted him a marriage and ordered him to return to the court on a certain day to consummate the marriage.

However, that boy Zhan Yunye was not happy.

After the emperor's father granted him a marriage, he fell ill. Immediately after the East Palace Incident, Zhan Yunye had not had time to marry the daughter of the Minister of War. In the same year, he was unfortunately besieged in Chishui Town while resisting the joint attack of the three neighboring countries, and eventually died in the battle. battlefield.

This was his short and glorious life.

As for the daughter of the Minister of War who was given a marriage but failed to marry him.

There are very few records about women in ancient times. The birth and death dates of this woman who failed to become the Princess of War are unknown. As for her appearance, later generations of book compilers can only guess through the clouds of history. The woman who will marry the handsome prince should be He also had a stunning appearance and was considered a perfect match, but later disappeared during the East Palace Incident.

Also.

The information Wen Qiqi consulted in an unofficial history record gave another version of the cause of Zhan Yunye's death.

That is related to the fight for the throne of the crown prince.

The old emperor was fond of Zhan Yunye, a prince with outstanding military exploits, and wanted him to inherit the throne, so he gave Zhan Yunye a marriage to the daughter of the Minister of War to consolidate the prince's power in the court, but the old emperor did not expect that After he fell ill, the East Palace took the opportunity to control the situation and also killed the prince who was on an expedition to the frontier.

Some people speculate that Zhan Yunye's death is related to the disappearance of the daughter of the Minister of War. She may become a pawn of the East Palace and one of the killers sent by the East Palace.

Some people also say that after Zhan Yunye's death, the East Palace purged Zhan Yunye's supporters and forces in the court to the extreme, and the Minister of War was implicated as a result. More than [-] members of his family were not spared, and the woman was one of them. .

therefore.

There will be more speculation factors about the missing woman who failed to become the God of War Princess. What kind of truth was that year cannot be studied because of the age.

"Wu Luoyang, I think the second point is more reliable."

Withdrawing her finger from the scroll, Wen Qiqi raised his head, looked at Wu Luoyang opposite, and said with a serious face: "If we use the information recorded in official history as evidence, the old emperor's decree to grant the marriage must have been supported by the Minister of War. Under the premise that the prince Zhan Yunye is vying for the position of crown prince and his power can be used by Zhan Yunye, then how can this daughter become a pawn of the East Palace to assassinate him? "

This statement is completely untenable!
What Wen Qiqi said was something Wu Luoyang couldn't figure out.

If Zhan Yunye gains power and becomes the emperor's [-]th emperor, then the daughter of the Minister of War will rise to the top of the sixth palace, and the position of queen must belong to her.

This was a great honor and glory at the time.How could someone destroy all the glory and wealth they have at their fingertips and be willing to be someone else's pawn?

Wen Qiqi frowned and held his chin with one hand, thinking hard and wondering: "Wu Luoyang, you said, who would be stupid enough to give up the position of queen, not enjoy the glory and wealth, and become a killer in the East Palace?! Unless this daughter of the Minister of War has a bad brain, he can do such a thing."

"Otherwise, there is something wrong with the minds of later generations of book editors. Most likely they must have been abused by their wives to come up with such speculations that insult people's IQs!"

Wen Qiqi was furious.

Wu Luoyang smiled and shook his head helplessly.

Wu Luoyang could not give her satisfactory answers to these questions.

Putting aside speculation about the woman who failed to become the God of War's concubine, Wu Luoyang turned to Zhan Yunye. Wen Qiqi had recently been helping to sort out the cultural relics and documents unearthed from the ancient tomb, so she would know the details better.

When it comes to Zhan Yunye, we naturally have to mention the well-preserved bones in his coffin.

For the remains in such ancient tombs, relevant agencies will use various scientific methods to analyze the gender, age, living conditions and cause of death of the tomb owner.This information will be completely recorded, and it will play an important role in studying the funerary objects and cultural relics together.

Wen Qiqi thought of something.

He stood up and walked to the back to rummage through the files stacked three feet high. He pulled out a test report and handed it to Wu Luoyang with his backhand: "This is Zhan Yunye's 'autopsy' report. Every broken bone has detailed records on it. Take a look."

Wu Luoyang took the file.

He lowered his head and browsed through it quickly.

For the most part, she just looked at it, and finally, her eyes rested on the photo of Zhan Yunye's skeleton.

Most of the remains unearthed from the ancient tomb were sent to institutions for testing, but Zhan Yunye's remains were still preserved in the coffin of the ancient tomb, and a large number of pictures were taken and archived.

Speaking of this, I have to mention it.

After Wu Luoyang entered the ancient tomb that day, he opened Zhan Yunye's coffin with his own hands. The original intention of the experts was to collect his remains and send them to a professional institution for testing.

however……

The mayor called Dean Xu Xing, who was in charge of the project, and solemnly informed the city police station that the tomb robber gang who surrendered had confessed, because it was at that time that they moved Zhan Yunye's coffin and killed three people. Xu Xing saw Wu Luoyang and Wu Lei again. Court was injured at the same time, so for safety reasons only pictures were taken but the remains were not moved.

Picking up the photo in his hand and handing it to the lamp at the corner of the table, Wu Luoyang locked his eyes on Zhan Yunye's sternum injury and frowned slightly.

Close your eyes.

A picture comes to mind...

The woman raised the sharp blade in her hand and stabbed the general in the chest.

Glancing at the spot where Wu Luoyang's fingertips were touching, Wen Qiqi didn't take it seriously and said casually: "Soldiers, fighting on the battlefield, it's normal to get a knife wound on the chest."

Hearing the sound, Wu Luoyang slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the wounds on the bones again, focusing on a central point, the bone cracks spread to all sides.

Shaking his head.

wrong!

This wound... is not a stab wound!
