preface
Zhu Yuanzhang, as an emperor with a relatively large controversy in China's history, is mainly due to his origin, and in folk legends, he also belongs to a relatively polarized figure. Zhu Yuanzhang belonged to the poor people, and unlike those emperors in history who were born as princes, Zhu Yuanzhang's poor family could not afford to read when he was a child, and he went out to herd cattle at a young age, and it is said that in order to survive, he also became a monk.
Mo deceived the young and poor, it was such a person, overthrew the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, became the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and during his reign he was also dedicated, and the social productive forces gradually recovered, creating the rule of Hongwu.
1. Zhu Yuanzhang's beloved daughter
Zhu Yuanzhang still had relatively many children in this life, according to historical records, Zhu Yuanzhang had a total of twenty-six sons and sixteen daughters. In addition to the son, among the many daughters, the most favored daughter of Zhu Yuanzhang should be the eighth daughter, that is, the Princess of Fuqing.
Princess Fuqing can stand out from so many sisters, inseparable from her wisdom, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting these needless to say, the key is that Princess Fuqing also has a set of views on how to govern the country and appease the people. After Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, some of the problems he gave him headaches, and Princess Fuqing often came up with suggestions to solve the problems.
People who know a little about history know that in ancient times, the status of women was relatively low compared to men, and even women were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, believing that women were virtuous without talent, not to mention talking nonsense in political affairs. And Princess Fuqing can not only discuss state affairs with her father, who is the emperor, but also get his father's affirmation, which is enough to see her wisdom and Zhu Yuanzhang's love for her.
2. The tomb of Princess Fuqing
Princess Fuqing died at the age of forty-eight, and her mausoleum was also of relatively high specification among many princesses and princesses, and in 1998, the tomb of Princess Fuqing was discovered in Nanjing.
The discovery of this tomb has an important significance in the history of Archaeology in China, the tomb of Princess Fuqing can be called the most complete preservation of the Ming Dynasty Princess Tomb found so far, and the entire tomb structure is complex, the specifications are grand, the architecture is exquisite, not to mention the cultural relics value in the tomb, in terms of the tomb alone, it is very conducive to the study of the funeral customs and construction technology of the Ming Dynasty royal family!
The mausoleum as a whole has a rectangular vault, divided into two rooms, the interior wall is coated with white lime, but it is old, some fall off, and the back room is placed with the sarcophagus bed and coffin of Princess Fuqing.
The discovery of this tomb is also purely accidental, here was originally planned to build a road, workers during construction from the discovery of some cultural relics in the ground, archaeologists rushed through excavation and investigation, determined that this is the tomb of Princess Fuqing, the daughter of Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty.
Three, the person who sleeps on the coffin
After the tomb of Princess Fuqing was discovered, the city of Nanjing protected the tomb as a cultural relics attraction and was open to the public for free. The visiting citizens entered the burial chamber, but found that there were people living inside, and the princess's coffin was used as a bed by them.
The official personnel rushed to hear the news and inquired about these people one by one, only to learn that they were all workers who had come to Nanjing to work, they were all from other places, they were reluctant to rent a house, and there was no place to go, so they took a fancy to this place that could cover the wind and rain for free. In fact, at the beginning, they also thought of places such as bridge holes, but the first people who went to the princess's tomb said that it was warm in winter and cool in summer, and the place was large, and everyone felt that they had moved inside to live.
Some people also feel "unlucky", after all, it is still a burial chamber, and it is strange to face a coffin at night, but there is no way, renting a house outside is too expensive, part-time work can not earn a few dollars, living on the street will be driven away, relatively more comfortable than living in the tomb. There are also many people from other places who come to Nanjing to work, and the news has spread in their circles, and many people have come to live in the tomb of Princess Fuqing until they are discovered.
postscript
This incident caused an uproar, on the one hand, homeless people, on the other hand, precious cultural relics, the debate can not be argued right or wrong, the problem can not be blindly blamed, always come up with a suitable solution is, and this also reflects the social problem, everyone waits for this result.
These workers do have difficulties in life, and living in the ancient tomb is really a helpless choice, but it is also not possible in the mausoleum, and in the current situation, only to help these workers find a suitable place to live is the best policy. So all sides took action, and after being criticized and educated, the workers all realized that they were not doing the right thing, and the higher authorities also arranged accommodation for them, and the rent was completely within their affordability.
Some people said that Princess Fuqing would not be unhappy when she knew that her mausoleum was so disturbed. There is more or less disrespect for the deceased, after all, the deceased is the eldest, but as a princess of a country, she was a clever and clever person before she was born, and seeing these homeless people, their own mausoleums can let them have a place to stay, and Izumi Izumi will also feel relieved.
