Chapter 220 Whose tomb is this?

Go back a few days.

The afternoon of April 12, 2020.

In Guanxi Village, Datangping Township, Xinjian District, Nanchang, Jiangxi, a villager named Judeyu had nothing to do and planned to go for a walk in the mountains and step on some wild products to eat home.

April is the time when delicacies are emerging from the soil. The delicacies at this time are very tender and taste very delicious.

Carrying a hoe and wearing rain boots, Judeyu went up the mountain.

However, he had not picked up many mountain treasures during his wild goods gathering trip when he accidentally discovered a deep well on the mountain.

Next to the wellhead, there is a tool wrapped around a cable.

How could someone come to dig a well in this wilderness?

Ju Deyu stepped forward curiously and took a look. The "well" in the middle was so deep that there was no bottom. It was so dark that nothing could be seen.

Immediately, he felt something was wrong.

After thinking about it for a while, Judeyu realized that this was not a well!

This is clearly a burglary hole!

After thinking about this, he immediately took out his mobile phone and contacted the city's Cultural Relics Bureau.

The city's Cultural Relics Bureau goes to the countryside every year to educate villagers about the dangers of tomb robbing and how to contact them after discovering a robbing hole.

Jiangxi has been a long-term residence of the Chinese people since the Chu Kingdom, not to mention that there were many dynasties in history that developed Jiangxi many times.

Therefore, there are many ancient tombs in Jiangxi.

In addition, Jiangxi is mountainous and there are many legends about the tombs of nobles.

Therefore, Jiangxi is also a relatively popular place in the field of tomb robbing.

Every year, there are many tomb robbing gangs that burrow into the mountains in the wilds of Jiangxi, trying to find some big tombs and make a fortune overnight.

Naturally, the local cultural relics bureau also does a good job in publicizing the protection of cultural relics and how to deal with thefts after they are discovered.

Ju Deyu made this call and reported it to the Jiangxi Cultural Relics Bureau.

The Jiangxi Cultural Relics Bureau immediately dispatched an archaeological team from the Jiangxi Institute of Archeology, together with the local police, to conduct an archaeological survey of the area surrounding the robbery cave.

Sheng Yiding, a researcher from the Jiangxi Institute of Archeology, arrived at the scene. After investigation, he quickly determined that it was a stolen cave with a depth of 15 meters.

And this hole was dug very professionally!

Looking at the dark hole in front of him, Sheng Yiding felt very complicated.

From the looks of it, the cultural relics have most likely been stolen or severely damaged, which is a huge loss to the country.

But things have already happened, and regretting them will not help.

Sheng Yiding had no choice but to report the situation immediately.

Soon, the director of Jiangxi Archaeological Institute personally led an archaeological team composed of more than 20 members of Jiangxi Archaeological Institute and Nanchang Archaeological Institute, and went up the mountain in a mighty manner to begin the exploration of the stolen tomb.

.

"According to local villagers, there was a group of outsiders in the village who slept during the day and wandered around the nearby Dundun Mountain with flashlights at night."

"This Dundun Mountain is the place where local villagers have their ancestral graves."

"However, due to the passage of time, most of the tombs have been moved away, and now few villagers come here to worship their ancestors."

"It is probably for this reason that tomb robbers have targeted the tombs on Dundun Mountain."

He Yang, the leader of the Nanchang Archaeological Institute, carefully informed everyone in the archaeological team of the information he had learned from the villagers.

"No, this is definitely not an ordinary villager's ancestral grave!" Wen Yuangen, director of the Jiangxi Archaeological Institute, squatting next to the robbery cave and frowning, said, "It has been measured just now."

"This robbery hole is actually fifteen meters deep!"

"Fifteen meters! This has been the standard for royal tombs and above in all dynasties!"

The fifteen-meter-deep robbery hole is obviously not the ancestral grave of an ordinary villager.

Besides, the ancestral graves of ordinary villagers cannot attract tomb robbers.

Even if this villager's ancestor was a landlord or powerful person in the village, it is far from possible that the tomb robber would be tempted.

"Which princes and kings were sealed here in the history of Nanchang?" Wen Yuangen touched his chin and thought.

"The vassal kings who were entrusted in Jiangxi during the Ming Dynasty included the Ning vassal line headed by Zhu Quan, the 16th son of Zhu Yuanzhang who founded the country in Nanchang!"

"No, Zhu Quan's tomb has been discovered. It is in Huangyuan Village, Shibu Town, next to Xinjian District!"

"What about the other royal tombs of Prince Ning's family?"

"I didn't find any."

Several archaeologists whispered to each other and discussed which of the princes and kings who lived in Nanchang in history could be this fifteen-meter-deep royal tomb.

After everyone discussed it for a while, they roughly concluded that this tomb should be the tomb of King Ning.

Before the Ming Dynasty, no princes or kings were granted the title of Nanchang.

In the Ming Dynasty, Ning Wang and his family established a title in Nanchang.

Therefore, this tomb is probably the tomb of King Ning of the Ming Dynasty.

I just don’t know which Prince Ning he is.

After the initial confirmation, Wen Yuangen planned to apply to the higher authorities for rescue excavation of the tomb.

A researcher from Nanchang Archaeological Institute raised his hand weakly and said: "Well... is it possible that this tomb is that of Marquis Haihun?"

As soon as his question came out, all the archaeologists present were stunned.

Haihunhou.

This is an extraordinary person.

The title of Marquis of Haihun was conferred by the Western Han Dynasty, and was inherited by subsequent generations for a total of 4 generations, which lasted until the Eastern Han Dynasty. The first generation of Marquis of Haihun was the late King of Changyi, Liu He, the deposed emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Liu He, the deposed emperor of Han Dynasty, is not ordinary famous.

Just because he was Huo Guang, the powerful minister of the Western Han Dynasty, who single-handedly deposed the emperor!

His life was very tortuous. During his 33 years of life, he experienced the transformation of three identities: king, emperor and marquis.

He is the grandson of Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the son of Liu Kun, King Ai of Changyi. He is the ninth emperor of the Western Han Dynasty and the emperor with the shortest reign in the history of the Western Han Dynasty.

He was even an emperor who was not officially recognized by the Western Han Dynasty.

In the first year of Houyuan (88 BC), Liu Kui, King Ai of Changyi, passed away.

In the first year of Shiyuan (86 BC), Liu He succeeded to the throne at the age of four or five and became the second king of Changyi in the Western Han Dynasty.

In the first year of Yuanping (74 BC), Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty passed away. Because he had no children, Liu He was conscripted into the court and established as the crown prince.

On Bingyin Day in June, Liu He accepted the emperor's seal and ribbon and inherited the title of emperor.

However, more than ten days after Liu He took the throne, Huo Guang and Zhang Anshi were planning to abolish him.

On Guiji day in June, Liu He's 27th day in office, he was deposed as a commoner because of his excessive lewdness and failure to protect the country. He was known as the deposed emperor of the Han Dynasty in history.

The emperor who succeeded him was Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty who later revived the Western Han Dynasty!

As for Liu He, after he was deposed as emperor, he was not sentenced to death. Instead, he was renamed the Marquis of Haihun and went to Haihun County, Yuzhang County to join the country.

In the fourth year after entering the country, Liu He ended his rough and tortuous life in his fiefdom, Haihun County.

This Haihunhou is full of mystery and legend.

After all, his identity has changed from king to emperor to prince.

And being at the center of the whirlpool, he personally experienced and witnessed how Huo Guang, who had overwhelming power, deposed the monarch.

Perhaps it was also because of this that he died young at the age of thirty-three.
