Chen Shuling, the king of Shixing in the Chen Dynasty of the Southern Dynasty, stole the tomb of Jin army commander Xie An in Meiling. He dragged out Xie An's remains, renovated them, and then took the remains of his mother Peng Guiren. After being put in, the tomb of the Jin army commander became the "underworld villa" of Emperor Chen Xuan's favorite concubine.
In the Battle of Feishui that year, Xie An, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, led 80,000 Jin soldiers to defeat hundreds of thousands of Qin troops. He became a famous hero in history, and also became a famous figure in the history of defeating more with less. The classic battle has been widely praised by future generations. After his death, he was buried in Meiling, a geomantic treasure land in Nanjing. The tomb was built very luxuriously and the funeral was quite grand. However, this attracted the attention of later tomb robbers.
In the Chen period of the Southern Dynasty, a bold tomb robber appeared. He was Chen Shuling, the son of Emperor Chen Xuan, King Shixing. Chen Shuling especially liked to rob tombs. He had dug up all the tombs he knew. However, due to his high position and authority, no one dared to do anything to him. He was also fascinated by the bones of the dead. Every time he robbed a tomb, he would bring back the bones of others, play with them carefully, and then carefully store them away. Chen Shuling's mother was Peng Guiren, his father Chen Xuan's favorite. After Peng Guiren died of illness, Chen Shuling wanted to find a Feng Shui treasure land for his mother to be buried. He immediately thought of Xie An's cemetery in Meiling, so he wanted to occupy Xie An's cemetery. cemeteries and mausoleums. Chen Shuling quickly reported to Emperor Chen Xuan that he had found an excellent Feng Shui land in Meiling for his mother, and hoped that his father would approve his mother's burial there. Emperor Chen Xuan agreed without much thought.
So Chen Shuling immediately brought a team of men to Meiling, Nanjing. At this time, Xie An had been buried for 200 years, but his coffin was still dug out by Chen Shuling. After that, Chen Shuling renovated Xie An's tomb and put his mother's coffin in it. In this way, the tomb of Jin army commander Xie An became the "underworld villa" of the imperial concubine Peng Guiren. Xie An's descendants have no descendants. The only option was to carry Xie An's coffin and find another place to bury it.
