Bao Zheng tomb finally found, when the expert opened the tomb door, the scene inside is very sad in Hefei, Anhui Province, because there is a steel mill it needs to be expanded, but within the scope of this expansion, there is a large-scale Song Dynasty mausoleum group, at that time all the archaeologists, in order to protect these Song Dynasty mausoleums, so put forward an excavation plan, that is, to choose the most rudimentary, smallest one of the mausoleums to start first, after accumulating experience, and then move all these mausoleums away, but when the experts dig up this most rudimentary, After the smallest grave, all the people present stayed there.
Why? Because in this mausoleum, a coffin of golden silk nan wood was found, not to mention placed in the Song Dynasty, even if it is put to the present, the coffin of this golden silk nan wood is also very valuable, and a "12 o'clock god maid" was also found inside. According to the etiquette of the Song Dynasty, these 12 hours of divine servants can only be used by more than two senior members, the key is that a tombstone was also found inside, which was sprinkled with more than three thousand words, recording the life deeds of Bao Qingtian Bao Zheng in that year, all the experts present were very surprised, but also expressed their heartache, what to ask?
Because they are likely to find the real mausoleum of Bao Zheng, and the tomb is so simple and shabby, it is heart-wrenching. Everyone knows that Bao Zheng was just and impartial in enforcing the law before his death, and he offended many powerful people. Before he died, Bao Zheng said to his wife: After being an official for a lifetime, we have not taken any advantage from others, and we have killed those powerful people, and many people have offended, and when I was alive, these people did not dare to do anything with me, but it is difficult to say after I die. Therefore, on the day of Bao Zheng's death, a total of 21 coffins went out from this Kaifeng City.
According to the current people, it is very likely to learn from the qin shi huang to move the tomb, that is, to make others unclear, which coffin is the real tomb, so later it also caused a lot of historical controversy. Henan indicated: Is Bao Zheng an official in our Kaifeng? So it must have been buried in our Henan. In Gong County, Henan Province, there is the tomb of Bao Zheng. There are also suspected tombs of Bao Zheng in Shaanxi, but Bao Zheng is a native of Hefei, Anhui Province, and in Feidong County, Anwei Hefei, in the Bao Village of Xieji Township, there is a group of Bao Zheng's family tombs. That's what we said at the beginning, "the grave that the steel mill is going to move."
Experts also found 35 pieces of the mutilated skeletons that were sent to Beijing for testing, and the results were a man over 40 years old, who died at the age of 64. So it's quite a coincidence, and the experts have discovered a big secret. Why? Bao Zheng's tomb has been stolen, and it is not the kind of thief who did it, a huge robbery hole, which is called "official theft" in the industry, but this expert can't figure it out, why?
Because after Bao Zheng was buried that year, there has always been an unspoken rule in this tomb robbery circle, that is, all the tomb robbers have an agreement, and no one can move Bao Qingtian's tomb. It is likely that it was not done by the people, and according to the scale of this robbery, it is likely that it was the government that did it, which also confirmed Bao Zheng's worries before his death. So there were also two theories at that time, one was that it was likely that the powerful people would retaliate against Bao Zheng, and the slightly valuable things in the coffin were not lost. The second theory is that after the Jin soldiers captured the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin people destroyed it.
So what's going on? Until now, there has not been a single public opinion. But what is certain is that the coffin that was excavated was the real Bao Zheng tomb, and then people reburied the bones of the Bao Zheng mausoleum, which was also on the southeast bank of the Bao River, and this coffin was built according to the Song Dynasty's construction French style, and the pine and cypress inside were quite quiet. If you have a chance in the future, you can go to Bao Zheng Cemetery to have a look and feel the feelings of history.
Of course, Bao Qingtian was worthy of being the first great Qing official in ancient times, and he was in a high position of power during his lifetime, but the clothes he wore, the utensils he used, and the food he ate were all the same as the people. Before he was born, he was even more honest and honest, and he was single-minded for the sake of the people, and after his death, he was so low-key, and such a simple and shabby grave is the best proof. I have to sigh: for the official, Bao Zheng also!
