Chapter 717 Legendary Cui Wei

The current tomb of Zhao Yuan is also an accident, when the General Office of the Guangdong Provincial Government was preparing to build several dormitory buildings on Jiefang North Road in the north of the old town of Yangcheng and on the Xianggang on the west side of Yuexiu Park.

While digging a pit in the foundation wall of the building, a migrant worker encountered a hard object when he used an iron hoe vigorously, and he was shocked and looked down to see that it was a large block.

From this, there are large stone slabs connected to each other - the tomb of Zhao Yuan was born after sleeping for 2ooo.

Zhao Yuan's tomb space is huge, the pit is 1o.85 meters long from north to south, and the width of the front part is 12-13 meters, which can be described as a giant cave, which is from the top of the hill, and 2o meters of vertical pit is drilled downward, and then excavated to the surrounding area.

There are four ladies buried in it, and there are murals and several tents in the giant cave, such a large mausoleum, with the understanding of the ancients about the ancients, they can completely guess where the mausoleum is.

In particular, the mausoleum on this elephant hill, with the means of digging three feet into the ground under Sun Quan, it is impossible to fail to see the entrance to the tomb that opens from the top.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Sun Quan's subordinates to have no appearance, and the reason why they did not dig must be for a reason, and the only reason is what Han Peacock is most afraid of.

Han Peacock is afraid of something, but many people do not have this idea, the appearance of this ancient tomb has greatly inspired the Lingnan academic community, and also rekindled the fire of hope for the Yangcheng archaeological team to find the tomb of Zhao Tuo, the first king of Nanyue.

In the spring of 1988, the Museum of the Tomb of the Nanyue King of the Western Han Dynasty was established, after the official opening of the museum, the door was like a city, and people could not help but sigh after carefully appreciating the treasures unearthed from the tomb of the Nanyue King.

"Lingnan is not barbaric!"

"First-class cultural relics!"

In addition to admiration, people have raised a question of considerable concern, the unearthed cultural relics of the mausoleum of the second generation of Nanyue kings have been very considerable, so what about the mausoleum of Zhao Tuo, the first generation of Nanyue kings?

There must be more treasures, but where is it?

Many people have asked about this matter like the museum staff, but no one can answer this answer, which is a difficult historical mystery in Yangcheng.

Han Peacock hadn't said it clearly just now, and the things unearthed in the last two ancient tombs were much worse than the legend of Zhao Tuo's tomb.

And Sun Quan still has a little gain, and when it comes to the triumphant modern people, it is a little chilling to accidentally appear in Zhao Yuan's tomb.

Although more than a thousand cultural relics have been unearthed from the tomb of Zhao Yuan, there are not many truly heavyweight things. Because of ancient and modern times, the standards for digging cultural relics are different, during the Three Kingdoms period, all the cultural relics excavated were precious cultural relics, while modern people, even a piece of rags can be regarded as a cultural relic.

The two ancient tombs that have appeared one after another, who has a greater harvest. It is even more clear at a glance, at least the things dug up by modern people are not as many as those found by Sun Quan's men.

An ancient tomb, the most important of which can prove the belongings of the owner of the tomb, is not much in Zhao Yuan's tomb at this point.

That's enough to tell. The two ancient tombs that were later discovered were both visited by people, and even visited countless times.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for an emperor's mausoleum to show such a thing, and it would be too cold.

For thousands of years, the mysterious Zhao Tuo mausoleum. It has always been the biggest historical mystery in Lingnan, everyone from the history books, only know that after Zhao Tuo's death, he was buried in Panyu, the capital of Nanyue ———, but its specific location is divided and inconsistent.

In the past, the Yangcheng archaeological team looked for Zhao Tuo's tomb according to the clues of the tomb of the king of the Han Dynasty and more than 1oo kilometers away from the capital Chang'an. It is placed in the suburbs of Yangcheng dozens of kilometers away.

And under the nose of the archaeological team, in Xianggang, which is only 1 km away from the ancient Panyu City of the Han Dynasty, is now the tomb of the second generation of Nanyue kings.

And now that there is a second tomb of the Nanyue King, are other mausoleums really so difficult to find? This is obviously impossible.

Zhao Tuo is the first generation of Nanyue king, ruling Lingnan for nearly half a century, its power and influence is very great, from the Nanyue National Palace Administration, the royal palace and other ruins and he built the Han Dynasty, excavated Yue Wang Well and other monuments. You can get a glimpse of it.

There are many legends about Zhao Tuo, and the most mysterious is his place of destination.

In the fourth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (137 BC), Zhao Tuo died in Guangzhou, and it is estimated that he lived more than 100 years old. It can be regarded as the longest-lived emperor of China.

This is because Zhao Tuo had built tombs in many places during his lifetime, and on the day of the funeral, he saw hearses going out of the city gate, which made it difficult to distinguish between true and false.

The more mysterious the tomb of Zhao Tuo, the greater people's interest in it, there is Ma'angang on Yuexiu Mountain, Qin Shi Huang had because Ma'angang has "the spirit of the Son of Heaven", sent people to dig and cause "bleeding" in the ground, and then Zhao Tuo was born to be called the king.

Pei Yuan, a Jin person, said that Zhao Tuo's tomb is in Maangang, and if it is said according to this, then Zhao Tuo is buried in Si and buried in Si.

Li Jifu of the Tang Dynasty said in the "Yuanhe County Atlas" that Zhao Tuo's tomb was in Yushan (now Zhongshan 4th Road, Zhongyou Street, Chenghuang Temple).

At the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zheng Xiong's "Panyu Miscellaneous Records" of the main book of the South China Sea contained that Zhao Tuo's tomb was in the area of the calamus stream of Baiyun Mountain, and it is said that there was a stone horse in the calamus stream, and a poem was engraved on the horse's tongue: "The mountain covers the tomb of what year, and the river flows for several generations, far from the golden bissy, similar to the stone unicorn." ”

Zheng Xiong read the ancient poem and thought that Zhao Tuo's tomb was nearby.

Cai Rusong, a Song person, believes that Zhao Tuo's tomb is in the Wuxing Temple (also known as Wanshan Temple, now Sanyuan Palace) at the foot of Yuexiu Mountain.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, Zhang Xu's "South China Sea Miscellaneous Songs" and Qu Dajun's "Guangdong New Language" both contained: "From Jilonggang (now Yantang) to Tianjing (that is, Yuewangtai, in Yuexiu Mountain), even the mountains and mountains, all of which are called the tombs. ”

According to this, the mountain range from Yuexiu Mountain to Baiyun Mountain nearly 1o kilometers long is called Zhao Tuo's tomb, which shows that Zhao Tuo set up a ** array before his death, so that future generations have been puzzled.

Some of the above arguments have been largely denied based on the archaeological results that have been obtained.

For example, "Yushan said", in the area of Yushan in the past, today there are the ruins of the Nanyue Palace Administration (a Qin and Han shipbuilding platform) and the ruins of the Nanyue King's Palace, and Zhao Tuo will probably not arrange for himself to be buried in the palace and garden.

Another example is Jilonggang (near Yantang today), although there are many mounds here, but with the urban construction exhibition in recent years, the small hill has been bulldozed and there is no trace.

As for the "Baiyun Mountain Theory", the archaeologists of Yangcheng have investigated Baiyun Mountain many times, and there are no ruins and tombs in the early Western Han Dynasty.

Where is Zhao Tuo's tomb most likely?

Yuexiu Mountain! Many archaeologists agree with the theory that Zhao Tuo may be buried in Yuexiu Mountain, which is also in line with the ancient "Maangang" and "Wuxing Temple", for two main reasons......

First, Yuexiu Mountain, also known as Yuewang Mountain, has "the spirit of the Son of Heaven", Zhao Tuo liked this mountain during his lifetime, often visited, and arranged for himself to sleep here after his death.

Second, there is a tomb of Zhao Yu near Maangang, according to research shows that the South Vietnamese state has a system of "gathering clans and living together, and burying them together", and his grandson occupies Xianggang Mountain, and Zhao Tuo is buried in Yuexiu Mountain, which is logical.

However, speculation is speculation that before there is a new archaeological appearance, the tomb of Zhao Tuo is still a mystery, but one thing is certain, the tomb of Zhao Tuo must be larger than the tomb of the Nanyue King in Xianggang Mountain, and the cultural relics are more abundant.

The value of such an ancient tomb is naturally not something that can be bought for three or four billion yuan, but with the addition of some warships, it will definitely be able to exchange for Han Peacock's information.

Thinking of the importance of Zhao Tuo's tomb, Han Peacock sighed, such a big curtain, he must not go to the Yangcheng City Government to rob it.

Yangcheng and Pengcheng are completely different, Pengcheng has been a place of humanities since ancient times, where there is no shortage of historical celebrities, nor lack of cultural heritage, but Yangcheng is different.

Yangcheng finally produced an emperor, a very influential emperor, if Han Peacock dug up his tomb and transported things back to the magic capital, then the people of Yangcheng would definitely want to peel Han Peacock and cramp.

Xu Jiachen said: "You can give the exact location, but what about the entrance?" Yuexiu Mountain is not small. ”

Han Peacock said: "This is not good? In fact, many ancient documents have been said very clearly, not only Yuexiu Mountain, from Yuexiu Mountain to Baiyun Mountain, nearly 1o kilometers long mountain range is called Zhao Tuo's tomb, this sentence is not a joke, Zhao Tuo built mausoleums around Yangcheng back then, do you think he is really suspicious? ”

Xu Jiachen looked like Han Peacock: "You're not joking, are you?" ”

"What do you think?" Han Peacock said.

"If there is really such a big mausoleum, then there is a place in Yangcheng." Xu Jiachen said.

Han Peacock smiled bitterly: "Have you ever heard of Cui Wei?" ”

"Don't you? "Legend" records that Cui Wei saw several "splendid silk tents" in this tomb, which were extremely luxurious, and then he met four maids in ancient costumes, told him that this was "the emperor's palace", and gave him a jewel to let him go.

After Cui Wei came out of the cave, he went to the Persian merchant to quietly sell this jewel, and there was an 'old Hu man' who asked him: 'Lang Jun has to enter the tomb of Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue?' Otherwise, it is not in line with Despao. ’

Lao Hu told Cui Wei that this was the Persian national treasure Yang Suizhu, which flowed into Lingnan during the Nanyue Kingdom of the Western Han Dynasty, and was later buried by Zhao Tuo, and he gave Cui Wei a huge sum of money to buy the pearl and left by boat. Xu Jiachen said lightly.

Han Peacock stretched out his thumb and said: "We have been preparing for a long time, and only then have some clues appeared, you have not done your homework, you can know so much, your generation has indeed learned things in college, and it is not like those current college students, who are so ignorant and unskilled." ”

"It's useless to pat yourself on the back, Zhao Tuo's role in history is too great, and his mausoleum is something you must never touch." Xu Jiachen said.

Han Peacock shook his head and said, "You didn't understand what I meant, in fact, I really wanted to get involved, but I didn't dare." ”

This record gave Han Peacock a lot of inspiration, and he had already guessed where Zhao Tuo's tomb was, but he didn't dare to dig it.

And Han Peacock also believes that over the ages, he must have guessed more than that, just like Sun Quan, he couldn't just send someone to dig Zhao Tuo's tomb based on legend alone.

If there is no purpose, then they are too accurate in finding the place.

In fact, some people have long speculated that Zhao Tuo's tomb was patronized by tomb thieves in the Tang Dynasty, which is actually quite reasonable, at least Cui Wei is half of it.
