After excavating the tomb of Su Daji in Henan, archaeologists entered the burial chamber: We have wronged Daji for more than 3,000 years
"Biography of the Daughters of The Column": "The one who is selfish, the concubine of Yin". Although Daji is a character more than three thousand years ago, modern people are no stranger to her, and she is a beautiful woman possessed by a fox demon in "Fengshen Yanyi", instigating the King of Gong to do something harmful to nature and reason, resulting in the demise of the Shang Dynasty.
Many of the current "Fengshen" TV series are based on the Ming Dynasty novel "Fengshen Yanyi", and the Daji in the book is portrayed as a woman who has brought calamity to the country and the people, will the historical Daji really be as vicious as in the book? The tomb of Daji unearthed in Henan will tell us the answer.
At the end of the 19th century, Henan Anyang unearthed the tomb of the King of Shang, next to the tomb there is also the tomb of Daji and the tomb of Queen Jiang, the first wife of the King of Daji, in addition to the funeral goods, there is no one thing to prove that Daji is a demon woman who has harmed the country and the people, experts have studied the ancient tomb and found that the descendants have wronged Daji for three thousand years, and you do not know her at all.
We always have the name of Su Daji and Su Daji, and we all think that Su Daji's surname is Su Daji, but in fact, her surname is "self" and her name is "Da", "Su" is the name of her tribe, and her tribe is in the current Wen County, Henan.
TVB version of the "List of Fengshen Gods", the King of Sui heard that Hou Su of Jizhou had two daughters of the Beautiful Heavenly Immortals, so he let Dai Ji and her sister come to the palace, in fact, according to the "Jin Language", Dai Ji entered the palace because the King of Lu led troops to destroy her tribe in 1047 BC, she was taken away as a trophy by the King of Qiu, she was only 16 years old when she was robbed, and the King of Lu was already a 60-year-old man.
In the TV series, it is also said that Daji is a fox demon, where there is any fox demon in the real world, it is all imagined by the literati, and the only thing that Daji has to do with the fox is that the totem of the Su tribe is a fox, the ancients are superstitious, thinking that the totem is what it is, the people in the tribe are the descendants of the totem, and the literati imagine Daji as a fox spirit.
Saying that the Shang Dynasty was completed by The Scourge of Dai Ji is also too high to look at her, ancient women have no status at all, it is impossible to point fingers at major state affairs, even if Dai Ji wants to interfere in politics, the King of Sui will not listen to her, because the Shang Dynasty people believe in gods and immortals, and often use divination to decide on major state affairs.
Daji's tomb found a lot of divination turtle shells and animal bones, the king of Lu could not even believe himself, but also asked the gods to help him decide state affairs, how could he believe in a little girl who was only 16 years old, not to mention that Dai Ji was still taken captive from the defeated tribe, if it were not for her some posture, she would now be locked up in a big prison, and the king of Gong would not be stupid enough to believe in a female prisoner.
However, the TV series has one thing that is right, that is, Dai Ji is indeed very beautiful, just entered the palace, she was named a noble concubine by the King of Lu, who also built a wine pond meat forest for her, scavenged the people's fat and people's ointment, and used the people's money to build a towering deer platform so that they could talk with the gods and immortals in the sky.
This caused resentment among the people, and the voice of anti-Shang gradually sounded, and in 1046 BC, the Western Zhou army attacked Chaoge and beheaded the head of the King of Lu. From the timeline, we can see that the Shang Dynasty collapsed only a year after daiji entered the palace, and it is impossible for her to cause the demise of a country in such a short period of time.
It is not a cold day, the Shang Dynasty will perish mainly in the body of the King of Qi, he is brutal and overwhelmed by the punishment, the emperor Uncle Bi Gan was dragged by the former emperor to assist the King of Qiu, he saw that the King of Lu was faint and repeatedly advised him to govern well, but he did not listen to Bi Gan's words and also in the name of "I heard that the heart of the saint has seven tricks" than to dig out the heart, Than Gan was angry, he dug out the heart with a knife, and died of a loss of heart.
Even the loyal Bigan is dead, the Shang Dynasty has nothing to stop the King of Shang from continuing to faint, the country will perish, dai himself came to the palace just a year before the fall of the Shang Dynasty, the people who wrote books in later generations are men, in order to push the black cauldron that led to the demise of the country from the man, the pot can only be buckled on her, and some mythological colors have been added, and the black cauldron is justified.
