First, the Han dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, so people in the Han dynasty buried many funerary objects in the graves of their ancestors. Every emperor in the Han Dynasty had a word "filial piety" in front of posthumous title. For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was called Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Second, the way of selecting officials in Han Dynasty was mainly procuratorial system. Among them, filial piety has become the most important project, and whoever is filial is like a scholar in the senior high school entrance examination. In order to show their filial piety, the Han people can't wait to borrow usury to enrich the funerary objects of their ancestors.
Third, the tombs in the Han Dynasty were very rare, not originally rare, but increasingly rare after the Three Kingdoms. Because Cao Cao, the first person to rob a tomb in the Three Kingdoms, created the positions of touching gold as a captain and sending a corps commander, and stole all the tombs of the Han Dynasty. He knew that a lot of treasures were buried in the tombs of the Han Dynasty, so he used grave robbery to raise military forces.
Therefore, it is not easy for us to find Mawangdui and the tomb of the sea faint Hou now. These two tombs, one in Changsha and the other in Nanchang, are both south of the Yangtze River. If Battle of Red Cliffs and Cao Cao win, these two tombs will not stay. Liu He is the owner of Hou Haifa's tomb, so who is the owner of Mawangdui's tomb? Could it be Dou Taihou, the mother of Han Jingdi?
0 1 Mawangdui's tomb belongs to Changsha Prime Minister Li Cang. Li Cang is quite famous in history, and he conquered the world with Liu Bang in his early years. Later, Liu Bang enfeoffed the world, Wu Rui was named King of Changsha, and Li Cang was later named Prime Minister of Changsha. There is a rule in the Western Han Dynasty that unless Liu is surnamed, he will not be crowned king. There were nine princes with different surnames at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, and basically none of them came to a good end. However, Wu Rui is the only one who saved Changsha, which is unique. After his death, the second generation of Changsha Chen came to power.
At this time, Ying Bu, the king of Huainan, rebelled, and Chen Wu, with the help of Li Cang, trapped and killed Ying Bu. Therefore, Li Cang was named Hou. The prime minister seems to be in a lower position than the princes, but in the Western Han Dynasty, the prime ministers of local princes were basically sent by the emperor himself. It has two functions. On the one hand, help the vassal state to deal with the affairs of the vassal state; On the other hand, it helped the emperor to monitor every move of the vassal king.
Therefore, if the kings of Wu and Changsha want to keep their country, they must deal with this prime minister well. Because the prime minister's mouth moves slightly, the emperor may have to revoke your seal. Therefore, Li Cang's position in the kingdom of Wu and Changsha is quite high. Moreover, he is a Hou himself, with fiefs and taxes, so it is understandable to have such a large tomb. Mawangdui Han Tomb is not only the tomb of Li Cangyi, but also beneficial to many Cang family members. It turns out that this is Li Cang's family tomb.
Mrs. Xin Zhui is the wife of Li Cang, and a miracle among Mawangdui. In Mawangdui Han Tomb, the staff found a well-preserved female body, about 50 years old, with a height of 1.54m and a weight of 34.3kg When it was first discovered, she was soaked in a colorless liquid with a depth of 20cm. It is reported that her muscle tissue, cartilage tissue and other structures are well preserved, her skin is delicate and her joints can be twisted.
According to experts' testing, the female deceased patients with coronary heart disease, gallstones and congenital malformation of gallbladder can actually be found out. This is a miracle. It was later confirmed to be Mrs. Xin Zhui, the wife of Changsha Prime Minister Li Cang. Mrs Xin Zhui is the daughter of Hou Xinyi in Linxiang, Changsha. Later, she married Li Cang and gave birth to two children. One of them, Li Yi, inherited the title of Li Cang and became a hereditary Hou. Li Shang was also buried in Mawangdui after his death.
Since it is the family tomb of Li Cang, why is it called Mawangdui? According to local records, it was originally the family cemetery of Ma Yin, the king of Chu in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, so it was called Mawangdui. This is a bit interesting, so why is there such a big difference between local chronicles and real excavation? Perhaps because of time, the records of geographical location are indeed biased. Moreover, we also learned from the notes of grave robbery that there is a kind of tomb built for ourselves with the help of other people's tombs. Because this place has good feng shui, there will be tombs in the tombs. Of course, Mawangdui has not released relevant news yet.
Dou Fangyi, the mother of Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, was buried with Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty in Xi 'an-Baling. Dou Fangyi, the wife of Emperor Wendi, is a very famous old woman in history. After Wendi's death, her son Jingdi came to power, but he was always under the control of Dou Taihou. Why? Because Dou Taihou also has a younger son, Liu Wu, King of Liang. Dou Taihou always wanted his two sons to be emperors, so he always wanted Han Jing to pass the throne on to his younger brother.
But Emperor Han Jingdi has a son himself. How could he do such a stupid thing? For this reason, Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty was always careless, and Liang Wang died of depression. When Dou Taihou heard about Wang Qi of the Liang Dynasty, he wept bitterly and refused to eat, saying, "The empire killed my son! ? Jingdi was terrified and didn't know what to do. According to princess royal's plan, it is divided into five countries, five men and five women are filial kings, and all five women eat Tang. So the queen mother said, add a meal to the emperor. -Historical records
After Liu Wu died, Dou Taihou thought that Liu Wu was killed, so he refused to eat, which was tantamount to declaring war.
In desperation, Emperor Han Jingdi chose all five sons to be kings and divided Liang into five. Even Liang Wang's five daughters got private fiefs, and Dou Taihou chose to forgive Han Jing. Dou Taihou lived a long life, and both his sons died until the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. After his death, he was buried in Wendi's mausoleum, which was later Ba Ling in Xi 'an. So Dou Taihou can't have anything to do with Mawangdui. At that time, the political center of the Western Han Dynasty was in Xi 'an, so it was impossible to send the old lady to Changsha for burial.
The tomb of the sea faint Hou and the tomb of Mawangdui have a common feature. When the tomb was excavated, experts found sweet melon seeds in Liu He's stomach, and also in Mrs. Xin Zhui's stomach. What kind of coincidence is this? At that time, there were no refrigerators and greenhouses, so melons could not be eaten until summer. Then these two nobles should have died in the summer, and they both ate melons before they died, which is the best proof. So will their death have something to do with this cantaloupe or melon?
