In the ancient society of our country, there is an extremely strict division of the hierarchy of society, the nobles are nobles, eating, drinking and having fun are different from the poor, of which the emperor of a country is the most respected, he enjoys the unique material conditions of the whole country, the power that makes everyone envious, and the unique title "朕". Known as the True Dragon Heavenly Son, only he can wear yellow, as if everything is showing his extraordinary.
Therefore, the things used by the emperor and the colors, whether it is the court ministers or the common people, can not be used at will, after all, at that time, if something collided with the emperor because of something, it was not a small matter that could be solved in one or two sentences, but to lose his head. And, not only during their lifetime, but even after death, there are differences in social hierarchy between them. Generally speaking, according to the different social status status, the size of the cemetery they can build, the shape of the tombstone, and the specifications of the funerary products that can be used have completely different regulations.
However, in 2006, an ancient Tomb of the Qing Dynasty excavated in Beijing broke this long-rumored rule, and even surprised the experts present. It turned out that the tombstone of the owner of the tomb clearly said that his official position was up to Four Pins, and he held a civilian position, but the official robe he wore was completely different, not only the specifications of a pint, but also the clothes that only military generals could wear, and what was even more bizarre was that under this layer of official clothes, there was even a dragon robe. You must know that according to the regulations at that time, the clothes of civilian officials and military attachés could not be mixed, let alone crossed the ranks, not to mention that he was still wearing the clothes of the king of a country. With the gradual deepening of the research, the doubts in the minds of experts are more and more, because although the owner of the tomb combs the hairstyle of the Ming Dynasty, it is the style required by the Qing Dynasty after it is taken apart, which makes its identity even more confusing.
Although the real reasons for this are unknown due to their age, experts have given some speculation based on the available evidence. They believe that the owner of this tomb was most likely born at the end of the Ming Dynasty, so he identified himself as a Ming Dynasty from his heart since he was a child, so he still wore a Ming Dynasty hairstyle when he died. However, because of his later position in the official field of the Qing Dynasty, perhaps because of his outstanding ability, or because of some other talent, he was valued by the emperor, so he rewarded him with these clothes to show that he valued him.
However, many people have made other suggestions, saying that the owner of this tomb must be Wei Xiaobao, who we are familiar with. But there are also those who argue that this speculation is empty. On the one hand, Wei Xiaobao is only a character in the novel after all, and it is impossible to really exist; on the other hand, according to the relevant historical records and the text of the tombstone that has been excavated, they believe that the owner of this tomb is actually a person named Huang Huowu, who is said to have been an official during the Kangxi Dynasty, and he was very accomplished, so he would be rewarded with a dragon robe, and he died of illness in his later years, perhaps it was the family tradition that allowed his family to comb his hair into a Ming Dynasty hairstyle and bury it.
