Nanjing excavated the ancient tomb of Jinyiwei, and a "blue bottle" in the tomb attracted great attention from experts, with a valuation of 100 million

Today's people pursue simplicity, and the tradition of ancient tombs to have funerary products has gradually disappeared, however, thousands of years ago, the Lakers attached great importance to funerary products. As a result, how many treasures are hidden under the loess soil, in order to make these cultural relics can be seen again and well protected, archaeologists are constantly working hard.

In Nanjing, many luxurious tombs have been found, and one of them was found by accident, that is, because the local school was under construction and stumbled upon an ancient tomb. After being developed by the archaeologists, they found a stone stele that read: ''Commanding Youshi Xu Junxu''.

The discovery made archaeologists' eyes light up, why? It turned out that this commander was not small at the beginning.

According to records, the commander of the Imperial Guard, rank Zheng Sipin, was under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty Jingwei Commandery and Assisted the Forbidden Guard Force, which was the predecessor of the "Sub-Patrol Road". That is, the second in command of the Jinyi Guard. Jinyiwei was not a small position for a period of time.

"History of Ming": "At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Gong Wei Division, the rank of The Seven Pins, the Lieutenant of the Guan Ling, belonged to the Governor's Mansion." Later, it was changed to the Commander of the Arch Guard, and the rank was corrected by Sanpin. It was changed to The Metropolitan Division. In the third year of Hongwu's reign, it was changed to the Pro-Military Governor's Mansion, which was in charge of the left, right, middle, front, and rear five guards, and set up the Yiluan Division. For four years, the Luan Division was designated as zheng wupin, with one ambassador and two deputy envoys. Fifteen years later, he dismissed The Luan Division, changed the Jinyi Guard, and ranked from Sanpin..."

JinyiWei (金衣衛) was a military and political intelligence gathering agency exclusive to the Ming Dynasty, formerly known as the "Gongwei Division" established by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Emperor, and later renamed the "Pro-Military Duwei Mansion", which was responsible for controlling the Yiluan Division, and was in charge of the emperor's honor guards and bodyguards. In the fifteenth year of Hongwu, he abolished the pro-military capital Weifu and yiluan division, and replaced them with Jinyi Guards.

This Jinyi Guard was first and foremost the Emperor's bodyguards and honor guards, and the Jinyi Guards consisted of generals, lieutenants, and soldiers. When there were no pilgrimage activities on weekdays, the four gates of the Imperial City were guarded by various guards, except for the general Jinyi Wei, who guarded day and night outside the noon gate, with a total of 100 people. The Noon Gate is the main gate of Miyagi Castle, which shows the high status of the Kinnishi Guard.

The difference between the Jinyi Guards and other Janissaries of other dynasties is the special feature of "patrolling and arresting", and the Jinyiwei institutions responsible for investigating crimes are the South and North Town Fusi, and the North Town Fusi of them specializes in the emperor's cases. And the Beizhen Fusi has its own prison, which can be arrested, tortured, and executed on its own, without going through the general judicial organs.

In addition, the Jinyi guards are privileged, invisibly allowing them to act recklessly and corruptly, while at the same time being protected by the emperor's "barrier". Therefore, how luxurious the funerary products should be as the second-in-command of a jinyi guard, which makes the archaeologists excited.

However, they are disappointed that this ancient tomb has long been visited by the tomb robbers, so most of the cultural relics have long been emptied, which makes archaeologists inevitably a little discouraged.

However, after the study of archaeologists, it was found that this Xu Junxu was actually a descendant of Xu Da!

Xu Da, the word Tiande. Haozhou Bell left the people. Founding military commander of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang praised him: the general is brave and brave, so he can curb chaos and cut down the crowd. Ordered to come out, successful and spinning, not reserved, women have nothing to love, treasures have nothing to take, Zhongzheng has no flaws, the sun and the moon are clear, and the great general is only one. Breaking the barbarians, the merits of the ancient and modern people are the first; the outgoing will enter the picture, and the literary and martial world is unparalleled.

There is such an ancestor, this Xu Junxu must have a luxurious funerary product, so the archaeologists held the mentality of trying to carry out a meticulous search, fortunately, the emperor did not pay off, they actually found a blue glazed plum bottle!

This bottle has a small mouth, short neck, full shoulders, and a gradual widening below the shoulders to the abdomen introverted, circled feet. The whole body is applied with high temperature Ji blue glaze, and the near bottom is purple-black due to the thicker glaze, and there is no glaze in the foot.

The plum bottle was a status symbol in ancient times, and only in the tombs of those princes and ministers could there be such high-grade cultural relics. "Blue glazed plum bottle, our museum has not been excavated before." Experts from the Nanjing Municipal Museum said that this blue-glazed plum bottle is similar to the treasure of the Yangzhou Museum--Ji blue-glazed white dragon pattern plum bottle. It can also be seen that this plum bottle is really a treasure. In addition to this, a white porcelain jar was found, but the grades were obviously too different.

Next, the archaeologists first removed the dirt around the blue-glazed plum bottle bit by bit, and then gently covered it with a red plastic bag. When taking it, because of the fear of soil falling on the plum bottle, the expert also made a baffle by hand and blocked it on the plum bottle. After taking it out, it was quickly wrapped in three outer layers, and then gently put into the cultural relics bag for protection. And the treatment of the white porcelain jar is not so good, after taking it out, it is good to cover it with a newspaper.

After that, experts said that after this plum bottle arrived at the museum, it has done a "physical examination", it is quite intact, the whole body is blue-purple, there is no recognition at the bottom, the color is very moist, and its valuation can reach 100 million!

What do you think about that?
