Well known,
"Shaanxi Loess Buried Emperor"
Xi'an, as one of the four ancient capitals of the world,
Many royal nobles are buried here.
Today we are going to talk about this thousand-year-old treasure land,
Also from this treasure land of Xi'an:
Treasure of Hejia Village.
October 5, 1970,
In Hejia Village, on the southern outskirts of Xi'an,
The infrastructure site was busy.
The migrant workers, as usual,
Lay the foundation and transport the loess.
When the ground foundation is dug into the ground about 0.8 meters underground,
Suddenly, a gray clay pot was revealed.
There were wise men who immediately shouted:
"Out of baby!"
Xi'an casually out a baby,
But it's all big guys!
Migrant workers hurriedly left their jobs behind,
Surrounded up.
As soon as the lid of the clay pot is opened,
It was filled with gold cups and silver bowls,
The eyes suddenly shone with gold,
My eyes are sour!
"It's gold!"
Migrant workers hurriedly called out to the people who came to the museum
At that time, the staff was trying to grab time
Drove straight away from the museum's only car
Experts on the spot while protecting the site,
While continuing to look around,
It didn't take long,
Another silver and clay pot was also dug out,
More than 1,000 treasures are finally available!
Seeing this you might say:
Aren't they three jars?
What treasure can you hold?
You don't say,
These three are no ordinary jars!
They contain the treasures in them,
All from the prosperous Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago!
The Tang Dynasty in its heyday was the center of the world!
Countless rare treasures are gathered here!
And inside these three jars,
It can be said that it was saved
The essence of the entire prosperous Tang Dynasty!
After the treasure of He Jia Village was excavated
has been preserved in the museum,
Nearly 30 years quietly,
It has never been exhibited to the public
One of the reasons,
It's a lot of treasures
The whole country has unearthed such a piece!
Very precious!
Until 2004,
Approved by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage,
The treasure of He Jia Village was finally there
Exhibited at Peking University!
Next, Xiaobian will take you
Take a good look
From these treasures
Go and feel the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty
Speaking of the treasures of He Jia Village
The most important thing to say is not gold and silver
It is the only beautiful jade carving to date:
Beast head agate cup
This cup is carved from red silk agate,
Cow-shaped beast head with double horns as the handle,
The beast's mouth has a golden plug,
Remove the stopper and the liquid in the cup will flow naturally.
According to experts,
This should be a funnel,
In the past, the royal family and nobles used to pour wine.
Don't look at this cup small,
The pores of the bull's head, the sideburns are clearly visible,
The whole bull's head shape comes to life,
Like a real cow!
That's something from 1200 years ago!
Beast head agate cup as
He Jia Village relics represent cultural relics,
Just after it was unearthed, it was included in the list of prohibited export exhibitions,
Now it is the Shaanxi History Museum
One of the 18 treasures of the town hall!
Folklore says,
Margaret Thatcher said,
If this artifact is given to Britain,
She will return Hong Kong early.
Although this is folklore,
But enough to prove that this cup is worth a lot!
The second one to mention is the dragon!
And it's not what we usually see
The dragon carved into the bowl and the bottle,
It's 12 red gold dragons!
These 12 red gold dragons,
It's all made of pure gold,
The tallest is only 2.8 cm,
It's a little longer than a dollar coin.
But just a little bit of a gadget,
There should be dragon tails, dragon horn dragon legs,
Even dragon scales!
Every shape is different,
Some walk with their heads bowed, some with their heads held high,
Some are happy to jump, some are steady in their steps,
It's as if the next second you're going to step on the clouds!
These red gold dragons,
It is a magic weapon used in ancient dragon throwing sacrifices.
This activity originated from Taoism
Faith in the three senses of heaven, earth and water.
The prepared sacrificial magic vessels will be "buried in the mountains and sinking waters",
It can drive away evil spirits and avoid demons, and ensure the immortality of the emperor.
The emperor has been driving a crane to the west for a thousand years,
And these 12 little golden dragons,
But it's still radiant.
Maybe they're on them.
There really is a dragon protecting!
The third one to introduce,
It is a gold vessel known as the "first bowl of Datang":
Mandarin duck lotus petal pattern gold bowl
This golden bowl is beautifully shaped,
The bowl noodles are carved into the shape of lotus petals,
There are two layers, ten petals on each layer,
Looking at it from afar,
Like a blooming lotus.
The upper layer of the petals is an animal pattern,
Mandarin ducks, hydraulics, parrots, foxes are all there.
On the lower level this is a uniform honeysuckle decoration.
Blank space of the petals
And tattooed with birds and clouds,
It's all a beautiful picture!
The bowl we use today,
Are factory assembly line products,
And on this golden bowl,
But it's all artificially carved patterns,
Some lines are as thin as less than 1 mm!
This is currently known as the Tang Dynasty gold and silverware
The most ornate craftsmanship and the largest volume of works.
We can imagine from this,
The nobles of the Tang Dynasty more than a thousand years ago,
Holding such a beautiful work in hand,
Taste wine and poetry, enjoy the prosperity,
What a dashing and blissful thing!
The fourth treasure to be introduced,
But it is related to Yang Guifei!
That is:
Grape flower bird pattern silver sachet
Ordinary sachets are made of cloth,
And this one is carved from silver!
The pattern is exquisite, and it is still fragrant when it is unearthed
outer circle hollow,
The spheres inside are used to hold the spices.
The magic is, no matter how you move it,
The spheres inside will remain stable,
Don't sprinkle any spices!
This is called the principle of equilibrium construction.
The rest of the world has only discovered this principle in recent times.
And we in China as early as 1200 years ago,
It has been applied to crafts!
There is also a story about Yang Guifei:
Legend has it that Tang Xuanzong favored Yang Guifei,
Give her a silver sachet.
After the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion,
Yang Guifei committed suicide in tears at Ma Songyi.
Tang Xuanzong later missed her,
Send someone to find her body to be reburied,
But I only got a nine-word reply:
The skin is broken, and the sachet is still there.
Now look at this sachet,
It was as if she saw Yang Guifei wearing her dancing,
A beautiful look full of aroma.
Seeing this, just the four treasures above,
It is enough to show the Tang Dynasty at that time
Exquisite craftsmanship and super high aesthetics!

What exactly is the identity?
Find three jars and bury them one by one,

The true identity of the owners of these treasures.
But we believe that
The truth will always come to the surface!

We can only look at treasures, history books and ancient paintings,
See the afterimage of that golden age.
