The meeting lasted until two or three o'clock in the morning and ended at two or three o'clock in the morning. All the participants were exhausted, but they were in good spirits. After all, this was most likely the first tomb of a Mongolian emperor in China.
"Mr. Zhuang, Minister Ouyang wants to see you, please stay for a while..."
After the meeting was over, Zhuang Rui was just about to go back to sleep. Ouyang Zhenwu's secretary kept Zhuang Rui. The original chief secretary had been released, and now this secretary Zhuang Rui was relatively unfamiliar.
After everyone had gone out, Zhuang Rui looked at Ouyang Zhenwu who looked tired and said, "Uncle, you should rest first at this late hour. We will discuss something tomorrow..."
Ouyang Zhenwu is also over sixty years old. He has been here since the morning and has been conducting demonstrations on the possibility of the existence of tombs with the experts, and he has not even taken a break until now.
"I'll leave in a moment and have a few words with you..."
Ouyang Zhenwu shook his head, pinched his eyebrows with his hands, and said, "I have one more thing to inform you this time..."
"What's the matter? Just call me and tell me everything?"
Zhuang Rui was a little confused. Ouyang Zhenwu's expression was serious. It must be a public matter, and Ouyang Zhenwu wouldn't inform him personally about public matters, right? How could a high-ranking minister be a sounding board?
"This matter is neither big nor small, but you must go there..."
"Uncle, what on earth is going on? Don't make me interested..."
Zhuang Rui is a little dissatisfied with Ouyang Zhenwu's words. I am not a member of the system. The spirit of this leader's words must be understood below. Can't you finish the sentence? Are you tired?
"You brat, I didn't expect you to be so capable. Even your uncle was alarmed..."
Ouyang Zhenwu looked at Zhuang Rui with a smile on his face. He had long known that his nephew was somewhat capable. Although he was young, he was already a well-known figure in the domestic antiques and archeology circles, as well as in the cultural circle.
a certain status.
However, Ouyang Zhenwu never expected at first that Zhuang Rui would do so many things that shocked the world.
The discovery of the Peking Man skull once made Beijing a gathering place for anthropologists around the world. The excavation and salvage of Liu Xiu's tomb in Mangshan and the shipwrecks of the Song Dynasty also unearthed a lot of evidence for the study of the history of those two periods.
The emergence of Dunhuang documents can play a breakthrough role in the historical research of various countries in the Western Regions during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It can also alleviate the embarrassment of the so-called Dunhuang culture abroad.
These things Zhuang Rui has done, after some deliberate guidance, have now become the focus of heated discussions in the country. At the same time, they have also added a lot of political achievements to the cultural department in charge of Ouyang Zhenwu.
Originally, Zhuang Rui's uncle was already at the center. Out of balance, Ouyang Zhenwu originally had no hope of going any further.
However, the cultural department has made outstanding achievements in recent years, and we do not rule out the possibility of Ouyang Zhenwu entering the central government after Uncle Zhuang Rui changes his leadership.
Ouyang Zhenwu has received conclusive news that he may be appointed Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee of Central Plains Province within the year. This high-power position is regarded by many as a precursor to Ouyang Zhenwu's entry into the central hierarchy.
Ouyang Lei is now prospering in the military. If Ouyang Zhenwu can enter the core of the next leadership, then the Ouyang family will prosper in both the military and political circles in the next twenty years.
If the large tomb under investigation is really the tomb of a Mongolian emperor, it will be another discovery that shocks the world. Its influence may be comparable to that of the unearthed Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shihuang and the Egyptian pyramids. It also adds to Ouyang Zhenwu's
gained a political bargaining chip.
And everything seems to be more or less related to Zhuang Rui. Looking at Zhuang Rui, Ouyang Zhenwu doesn't know how to evaluate his nephew. It seems that he has caught up with all the good things in the world.
.
…
"Uncle, please don't scare me. What I did will not alarm my uncle, right?"
Zhuang Rui was really shocked when he heard Ouyang Zhenwu mentioning his uncle. If Ouyang Zhenwu knew about his things, it was because he was in charge of the work, and his uncle was the leader of the country, so he had no idea.
Why don't you mind your own trivial matters?
After Ouyang Zhenwu heard Zhuang Rui's words, he smiled and shook his head and said, "What you did is not small. Do you still remember when you went to Tibet to find the reincarnated Living Buddha a few years ago?"
"Remember, what's wrong? Didn't you say it would take a few years to get the results?"
Zhuang Rui nodded, how could he not remember this? It is said that he brought the golden eagle down from the snow mountain. That experience will never be forgotten by Zhuang Rui.
"Calculate, how many years has it been?"
"Three...more than three years, it's so fast..."
Zhuang Rui calculated that it was indeed more than three to four years since the trip to the Snowy Mountains. The search for the reincarnated Living Buddha must have come to fruition now.
"Well, the reincarnated living Buddha has been confirmed. He is a child in the village where you went. In March next year, an enthronement ceremony will be held. The State Administration of Religious Affairs has received a notice and invited you to attend...
"
When Ouyang Zhenwu said this, he paused and said in a more serious tone, "This is a big event. National leaders in charge of religion and culture will also attend. You kid, please be calm during this time and don't run around...
"
Religious issues in Tibet and ethnic issues in Xinjiang have always been matters of great concern to the country's top leaders. In addition to the reincarnation of the Panchen Lama, there are some influential enthronement ceremonies for the reincarnation of living Buddhas. The country will also send corresponding senior leaders to attend the ceremonies.
of.
Zhuang Rui knew that Ouyang Zhenwu was afraid that he would go abroad again, so he smiled and said: "Okay, uncle, I know, I'm so focused on work right now, how can I have time to run around? Besides, it's not
Is it still more than half a year?"
The mysterious place in Tibet is still very attractive to Zhuang Rui. In addition, in recent years, Zhuang Rui has always wanted to return to the Snowy Mountains with the golden eagle and white lion to meet the parents of the golden eagle and the snow leopard, but he has always wanted to do so.
I just didn't get around to it, so I just took this opportunity to go back and have a look.
"You kid, if I don't say hello to you in advance, I don't know where you will be when the time comes..."
Ouyang Zhenwu raised his hand to check the time, stood up and said, "Okay, I'm going back to Beijing. You have to pay attention to safety here. There are many dangers in the tomb. We need to conduct a clear survey before starting the excavation work..."
"Please rest assured, chief, and promise to complete the task..."
Zhuang Rui saluted his uncle in a nondescript manner, which made Ouyang Zhenwu dumbfounded. How could such a well-behaved and quiet girl give birth to such a funny child?
…
On July 29, the Ministry of Culture held a press conference to announce to the world that a tomb suspected to be a royal mausoleum of the Yuan Dynasty had been discovered in Inner Mongolia. After preliminary archaeological surveys, this possibility is extremely high.
At the same time, the press conference also announced the list of members of this archaeological operation, and after confirming the existence of the tomb, the excavation will be broadcast live on CCTV, unveiling the mystery of the ancient tombs of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty in front of people all over the world.
After the press conference ended, radio waves were transmitted to all parts of the world, and the world's scientific research community was suddenly shocked. In just a few hours, several countries and organizations issued notes to relevant departments of our country, requesting participation in this event.
During archeology.
While many scientific expedition experts are still confirming the authenticity of what was said in the press conference, more experts and scholars have already purchased tickets to fly to China. Everyone in the world who knows the history of Genghis Khan's conquest of the world will be
Focus on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, China.
As the Mongolian dynasty founded by Genghis Khan, known as the "Emperor of Mankind" by Europeans and Americans, it has always been the focus of research around the world. Nikolai Roerich, a famous Tibetologist from the former Soviet Union, once said: There has been no nation like this since the beginning of time.
powerful.
The famous American military general MacArthur once called on soldiers to learn from Genghis Khan. In a report to the Secretary of the Army, he said: If the records of the war are erased from history, only the detailed records of Genghis Khan's battles will remain and be preserved.
If they do well, then the soldiers will still have endless wealth.
Former U.S. President Roosevelt and former United Nations Secretary-General Annan both praised Genghis Khan's great achievements on different occasions and held him in high esteem.
It can also be said that it was the period of history in which the Mongolian dynasty conquered the world that made people today pay great attention to the unearthed tombs of their emperors.
However, there is another possibility, that is, after the decline of Mongolia, the wealth looted from all over the world disappeared. The whereabouts of these treasures also attracted people's attention.
According to the statistics of some historians, the gold and silver looted by the Mongols from all over the world alone accounted for more than 60% of the total gold and silver in the world at that time. This was an unimaginable sum at any time.
great wealth.
The Ming Dynasty, which expelled Mongolia from the Central Plains, did not seem to inherit this huge wealth. The whereabouts of this wealth has been a mystery for thousands of years, leaving countless people searching for it.
Now the discovery of the emperor's tomb also makes people think of the possibility that these treasures are hidden deep in the emperor's tomb.
After the press conference, the prairie suddenly became the focus of scientific expeditions and explorers from various countries, and even the staff who participated in the excavation were also noticed.
Student Zhuang Rui was naturally not spared. Many people were very interested in the unfamiliar name in this archaeological team.
Most of what Zhuang Rui has done before has caused a sensation in some specific circles, but this time, he has entered the eyes of people all over the world.
The deputy commander-in-chief of the archaeological team and the discoverer of the Mongolian Emperor's Tomb, no matter which title he held, Zhuang Rui received a lot of attention.
