The two warehouses of Prince Zhou's Mansion have been described clearly above, so if there are really good things in the warehouses, they must have been unearthed by now.
"A royal palace may have more than just warehouses." At this point, things are basically clear.
Han Peacock is most famous for treasure hunting, and now that someone is looking for him to come to this place, it must be related to this. If there is really a treasure house of King Zhou still hidden here, those people will naturally not mind Han Peacock choosing one of his items.
"What we need to find are several famous places in Prince Zhou's palace." Professor Wang said after seeing Han Kongque and Li Da almost saying that they invited Han Kongque to hunt for treasure.
"I wonder if Wangjiayuan is considered the famous sight of Prince Zhou's Mansion?" Han Peacock said with a smile.
"Of course it counts." Professor Wang's mouth twitched and he said.
Han Peacock smiled: "The place below us is the Wangjiayuan District in Meishan."
"Isn't it possible? The Prince Zhou's Mansion is so large, how easy is it to find the Royal Garden in Meishan?" At this time, Professor Wang couldn't care less. Is this place really Meishan?
According to historical records, the area of Luoyang City, the ancient capital, has undergone particularly dramatic changes. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the perimeter of Luoyang City was only eight miles and 345 steps, and the entire city of Luoyang was no larger than the area of the Prince's Mansion of Zhou Dynasty.
Although Prince Fu was favored by Emperor Wanli, the scale of Prince Fu's Mansion located in Luoyang City was dwarfed by the size of Prince Zhou's Mansion in Kaifeng.
Very similar to the architectural layout of the royal palaces of the past dynasties, the Wang Family Gardens were also built in the Forbidden City of the Zhou Palace, the most famous of which was Meishan.
"Have you ever heard of the Hai Ri ball tossing? If you dig down from here, you can easily dig out the two balls. This still doesn't prove that this place is a coal mountain?" Han Peacock activated his magical power and had a clear view of the underground situation.
Although this is the case, many buildings have been damaged, and there are many remaining buildings above and below, which makes it even more difficult to identify the era of these ancient buildings.
However, Meishan's "Hai Ri Tossing Ball" is very famous and is the easiest to identify.
According to "Ru Meng Lu": "...there is a coal mountain behind the palace. Coal is stored in preparation for the police. The mountain is five feet high and has a forest of pines and cypresses. There is a stone tablet on it with the words 'The Eight Immortals Gathering Place' written on it. At the foot of the mountain
There is a depression and turbulent water, with two balls floating inside. The rushing water rushes up and down. It is called "Hai Ri Tossing Ball".
The coast is dotted with water pavilions, various entertainment places, strange rocks and flowers, and endless mountains. On the mountain ridge, in a cave near the mountain, there are nuns chanting sutras. Wooden fish make sounds when they are struck, deer and sheep fight against each other, and birds spread their wings.
, tigers are in full force, cranes are dancing and orioles are singing. There is also the Qing'an Palace in Dongwa. I can't describe the scene inside this palace."
This coal mountain was also called Longting Mountain in the Qing Dynasty. It is also the predecessor of Kai Feng Long Pavilion. According to the Records of Kai Feng Mansion in the Qing Dynasty: "Long Ting Mountain, also known as Mei Mountain, was granted by Taizu Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.
In Kaifeng, Zhou Fan built an earthen hill behind the royal palace. He built pavilions and pavilions and arranged flowers and stones as a tourist attraction. In the 31st year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, the Wanshou Palace was built on it."
If the "Hai Ri Throwing Ball" is really dug, it will naturally prove that this place is indeed Meishan, and then there must be the ruins of the Zhou Palace here. Then, the purpose of Han Peacock coming here will be completed.
"It is naturally not safe to only confirm one place, so Mr. Han is better to confirm one place. It is best to find Yin'an Temple, so that we will not trouble you in the future." Professor Zhou said.
"Yin'an Palace? This is not easy to find." Han Kongque was stunned and said.
Professor Zhou didn't say anything, but he still rolled his eyes. If it's so easy to find, why should we bother you?
"It is said that Yin'an Palace was demolished before the destruction of Prince Zhou's palace, right?" Han Kongque asked.
"The legend is like this, but we still hope to find the ruins of Yin'an Palace. As long as we find this palace and this is the ruins of the Zhou Palace, no one will have any objections." Professor Wang said.
"I know that Yin'an Temple has been destroyed a long time ago. How can I find this?" Seeing Professor Wang and Professor Zhou entangled in Yin'an Temple, Li Da was a little unhappy. He thought that these two people were trying to embarrass Han Peacock.
Han Kongque said: "This is not easy to find. Emperor Jianwen looked for it but couldn't find it."
After hearing what Han Kongque said, Li Da immediately stopped shouting, there was something fishy in this!
Being able to be remembered by an emperor naturally requires a reason. To have a kingly aura is a bit nonsense. After all, Emperor Jianwen had just been emperor for a few years. If it was so ridiculous, he would be easily attacked.
"Everyone has heard of the saying of giving birth to king's energy, so naturally they also know how the Yin'an Palace was destroyed." Professor Wang said.
"Is this really true? The ancients might have been that boring, but it was also possible for other reasons." At this time, Li Da also came to his senses.
At this time, Han Peacock had already circled around this area. At this time, the outline of Zhou Wangfu had already appeared in his perception at an early stage.
The luxury of the Zhou Palace is absolutely staggering, but in ancient society, extravagance was not a big deal. The most taboo aspect of the Zhou Palace was that it was "too royal".
The so-called "king's spirit" is actually something that cannot be explained clearly, but when it comes to its specific implementation, it is not without room for manipulation. For example, the size of the King of Zhou is a bit "overstepping".
According to historical records, among the kings entrusted by Zhu Yuanzhang, the two kings of Qin and Jin were the first to establish vassals, and the two royal palaces of Qin and Jin were also the first to be built.
At that time, in order to unify the scale of the palaces of all the princes, in July 1378 AD, the Ministry of Industry "reported to all kingdoms that the vertical expansion of the palaces had not yet been determined, please take the Jin Palace as the standard. It is three miles, three hundred and ninety paces and five inches around, and one hundred and fifty steps from east to west."
Ten feet, two inches and five cents, north and south, one hundred and ninety-seven feet, two inches and five cents, Zhi said: "Yes!" This standardized the land area of the feudal prince's palace.
However, the Zhou Palace was built on top of the Song and Jin Palaces. Its scale greatly exceeded the standards set by the Ministry of Industry, and its interior decoration was more luxurious and extravagant than other palaces.
Just as Wang Zishou, the feudal lord of the late Ming Dynasty, said: "There are as many vassals in the world as Bianzhong."
In the Prince Zhou's Mansion, there is the Yin'an Hall, which was originally the most important hall in the Prince Zhou's Mansion.
Later, when Zhu Tong was sent to Yunnan, Emperor Jianwen was still worried about this commoner uncle, and ordered that he be granted the title of "Big Shovel of King Qi" in Kai.
In the book "Ru Meng Lu", there is a more detailed description of the measures and intentions of this "elimination of the king's spirit": "The Yin'an Palace was demolished, and the singing tower and Zunyi gate tower were demolished. Donghua's access control prohibited
When the door was opened, the four corners of the stone were nailed, and earth was bulldozed in front of the door to make a platform. The north platform was made of soil from Zhengzhou, which was refined by fire and not even a blade of grass grew.
Xingjiaists say: Destroy the Yin'an Palace to remove the dragon's heart, chant the watch tower to remove the dragon's eyes, fix the four-corner stones to make the dragon's claws, pile up earth to make a platform to restrain the water so that the dragon cannot fly, and the Donghua Gate is not allowed to open.
The civil servants kept silent and demolished the gate tower of Zunyi, saying that the generals were beheaded."
It is difficult to say whether Emperor Jianwen's move to "eliminate the king's spirit" eradicated the king's spirit in the Zhou palace. However, after the ordeal of being sent to Yunnan, Zhu Di's "king's spirit" was indeed greatly reduced: after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he removed his brother After returning to Kaifeng from Yunnan, Zhu Ju did not rebuild the Yin'an Palace, and completely gave up on competing for the world, and turned to medical research.
"I wonder how much Professor Li you know about King Zhou?" Everyone was silent for a while, and Han Kongque spoke again.
Li Da was very familiar with this prince: "Zhu Ji [su] was the fifth son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, and the younger brother of Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty. He was granted the title of King of Wu in the third year of Hongwu (1370), and was granted the title of King of Wu in the eleventh year of Hongwu (1378). In 1381, he was renamed King of Zhou, and in the fourteenth year (1381), he was granted the title of King of Zhou.
In the winter of the 22nd year of Hongwu (1389), he was convicted of leaving the fiefdom without authorization and went to Fengyang. He was ordered by Taizu to move to Yunnan. At the end of the 24th year of Hongwu (1391), he was allowed to return to Kaifeng.
In the following thirty years, he organized and compiled works such as "Remaining Records of Preserving Life", "Pocket Prescriptions", "Puji Prescriptions" and "Herbal Medicine for Famine Relief", which made great contributions to the development of medicine in the southwestern frontier of my country.
In October of the 18th year of Yongle's reign (1420), someone accused Zhu Tri of treason. Zhu Tri was summoned to the capital in February of the following year. Chengzu told him about the matter. Zhu Tri "offered the death penalty" and Chengzu would no longer pursue the case.
After Zhu Ji returned to the feudal state, he took the initiative to return his three bodyguards to the court. After Renzong succeeded to the throne, he increased the salary of King Zhou to 20,000 shi. In the first year of Hongxi (AD 1425), Zhu Ji died and was given the posthumous title of 'Ding'."
"After he died, were there many burial objects? I remember his tomb has been excavated, right?" Han Kongque asked.
Li Da frowned, not knowing what Han Kongque wanted to say, and Professor Zhou and Professor Wang's faces were already a little ugly, so Li Da cooperated very well and said: "It has been discovered that the tomb of King Zhou Ding is located in Laoguan Mountain , in the heart of Dongshan Mountain, was built in the early Yongle year and completed in 1414 AD.
The tomb palace consists of a tomb passage, a tomb door, a corridor and five groups of masonry arched tomb chambers in the front, back, left, right and middle, with a total area of 1,400 square meters. The tomb door and each tomb chamber are inlaid with glazed tiles to form a palace corridor style, and the exterior bricks of the tomb are The arches and the walls of the tomb are inlaid with tomb bricks of different shades to form patterns or characters, which have not yet been deciphered, making it even more mysterious."
"Yes! I have also gone to see it. The tomb is very majestic and mysterious." Professor Wang interrupted at this time.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "I have also heard that the tomb of King Zhou Ding is divided into a front courtyard and a back hall. There is an underground palace for King Ding, eight burial chambers for the princesses, and 10 pairs of large bluestone doors. There are main halls on the ground, two Hall, three halls.
The tomb of King Zhou Ding is grand in scale and majestic. There is a legend that "the head rests on a gold stone, the waist is covered with lotus pots, the city god's temple in the front hall, and the feet step on the night pearl". Experts have proved that it is the only tomb of a Ming Dynasty vassal discovered in China. The largest tomb building has great historical, artistic and scientific value, but it has little archaeological value, right?"
"Is it still of no archaeological value?" Professor Zhou asked.
Professor Wang pulled Professor Zhou and said: "The tomb of King Ding was stolen during the Ming Dynasty, so Mr. Han thinks it has little archaeological value, right?" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and more updated novels. quick!
