I, compose the 5000 years of China

Chapter 214 Let me tell you about "Cao Cao" today... (subscribe)
Now that the location is determined.

Soon, the manpower of the archaeological team was replenished again.

At the same time.

The Qianling Mausoleum hidden in Liangshan also appeared in front of everyone for the first time.

But Chen Fan's guess was right.

The main tomb of Qianling was not stolen.

From these traces, it can be seen that all previous tomb robbers have returned without success.

It's just that the Qianling Mausoleum was not stolen, and other burial tombs were not so lucky.

Basically, the seventeen burial tombs around Qianling Mausoleum were all robbed.

have to.

Chen Fan led the archaeological team to carry out protective excavation.

As for someone asking, if they are all stolen, what is the use of digging again?

One is that if it is not dug, the mausoleum here may suffer further damage.

another.

In fact, some tomb robbers will not completely steal all the contents of the tomb.

They only take what they are interested in.

And some things they are not interested in, or they don't think are of much value at the time, they will not take them away.

Also.

There are others that they cannot take away.

For example, like the tomb inscription in Shangguan Wan'er's tomb, maybe they didn't think it was of much value at the time.

Or they thought it was too heavy to take away.

So I didn't take it away.

Also.

There are also some murals in the tomb, which cannot be taken away by tomb robbers.

This requires protection line mining.

Also.

After excavation, if the tomb here has other values, it can also promote tourists to visit and create other values.

……

"Qianling was actually found by Brother Fan."

"I just said that Brother Fan has definitely visited countless large tombs."

"Well, now I believe it."

"It's a pity that most of the cultural relics in the tomb of Prince Zhanghuai have been stolen, only some murals have not been removed."

"The greatest luck is that the Qianling Mausoleum was not stolen and is still there intact."

"By the way, will the higher-ups excavate the Qianling Mausoleum?"

"Probably not."

"why?"

"Brother Fan said that he doesn't want to dig. He thinks that excavating now is not conducive to protecting the cultural relics in the Qianling Mausoleum. Only when the time is right and our technical conditions are met, we will dig. The above also attaches great importance to Brother Fan's suggestion."

"Damn, this is the most positive archaeologist I've ever seen."

In the following time, Chen Fan didn't have too many live broadcasts.

But although there is no live broadcast.

Every day in the archaeological team, a series of archaeological discoveries will be revealed to the outside world.

of course.

There are also some friends who came to the scene after receiving the news, and will also disclose some of the situation on the scene.

"By the way, is Qianling the joint tomb of Wu Zetian and Tang Gaozong?"

"This... I don't know. Because the Qianling Mausoleum has not been opened, we don't know."

"I'll go, then wouldn't it be impossible to prove that Wu Zetian existed?"

"Theoretically yes...but... Brother Fan said that there seems to be a stele without words."

Just when everyone was talking about it.

The Qianling archaeological team once again released major news.

"Two steles were found near the entrance of the main tomb of Qianling Mausoleum 100 meters away."

This news aroused the shock of countless people.

At the same time.

The archaeological team also excavated this time, and it was broadcast live for the first time.

"Wordless stele, trust me, is it a stele without words?"

"I'm so excited, I feel like an earth-shattering figure is about to appear."

"It seems to be, it seems that there is no word on it."

Stare into the camera.

Countless fans were so excited that it was hard for me.

on the other hand.

A group of history experts, scholars, professors... history lovers are also paying close attention to this tomb at this time.

This time digging.

It can be said that it is really necessary to uncover a tomb that they have never known before.

It took more than two hours.

at last.

The first tombstone of Qianling Mausoleum was excavated successfully.

Although there are no words on it, the head of the wordless stele is still engraved with exquisite patterns.

If you look carefully, you can see that the eight-character chilong is engraved on it.

On both sides of the stele are pictures of ascending dragons, each with a giant dragon about to fly into the air.

On the sunny side of the pedestal, there is also a picture of a lion and a horse. The horse bows its hooves and bows its head, while the male lion raises its head and glares, very majestic.

There are many exquisite patterns on the stele.

But other than that.

The inscription on the front is really like what Chen Fan said in the live broadcast before, there is no word.

"No word monument, it really is no word monument!!!"

"Thousands of merits and demerits, let others judge, Wu Zetian..."

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah……"

this moment.

The entire live broadcast room was completely boiling.

If they had been doubting whether there was Wu Zetian before.

Then.

When they saw the wordless stele, they could no longer restrain their excitement.

……

but.

Compared with the wordless stele, Chen Fan paid more attention to the second seven-section stele, which was also known as the stele describing the saints.

Next to the wordless stele is the stele of the holy record.

Compared to the first tablet with no words, the second stone tablet is filled with a series of densely packed characters.

The text in it first talks about the history of Tang Taizu Li Yuan's founding of the Tang Dynasty.

The second is about Emperor Taizong's rule of Zhenguan.

The third is about Tang Gaozong's succession to the throne.

The fourth is about some deeds that Tang Gaozong did during his reign.

The fifth is about some wills after Tang Gaozong's death.

The sixth is to say...

but.

This is not the most critical.

The most important thing is that the content in the Shusheng Monument was written by Wu Zetian and written by his son Li Xian.

……

"Teacher Chen Fan, can I interview you with a few questions?"

"can."

"How long do you think it will take to excavate the Qianling Mausoleum this time?"

"Here I need to explain that Qianling is not a tomb, but a group of tombs. In addition to the main tomb, he also has [-] accompanying tombs. The tomb we are excavating now is not the main tomb of Qianling, but this Some accompanying tombs. Because of the large scale of the entire tomb group, it may take a relatively long time. In addition, the Qianling Tomb Culture Management Center may be built here later, and it may also be open to the general public in the future."

"Many people say that this excavation can be said to have overturned the history of the Tang Dynasty and truly confirmed the character Wu Zetian. May I ask, did you think that there was a character Wu Zetian before?"

"Before, I just thought that there was a period of Tang Dynasty that was not logical. Later, through a lot of interviews and legends, I thought there was a person named Wu Zetian."

"Many people admire your historical research, but more people expressed the hope that you can continue to make breakthroughs in history."

"I think so too. In the future, I may be involved in the research of the Three Kingdoms."

"Three Kingdoms period?"

"Yes, that is the period before the Wei and Jin Dynasties at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. During this period of time because of years of wars, various historical materials and cultural relics have also been lost. Therefore, I hope that through my research, I can restore this piece of history. "

"But it seems that most domestic historians are not particularly interested in this period."

"There are many reasons for this. On the one hand, there is a lack of historical materials, and people can't study it even if they want to. On the other hand, it is also because this period of existence is relatively short. From the establishment of the Three Kingdoms period to the return of the last three families to Jin, it only took about 60 years. Even with the addition of the above, it is about 100 years. This period of time is a very short period of time for our 5000-year history. In addition, the world was not unified during this period, and it is difficult to have much influence on future generations. However, I think the glory of the Three Kingdoms period can be compared with the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period."

After flipping through the interview, Chen Fan bid farewell to Professor Zhou and went to Xuchang.

The excavation of Qianling is still going on.

Although Chen Fan is the team leader, he doesn't have the time to stay there for a year or two.

Chen Fan prefers to travel around.

At the same time, it also introduces a number of well-known historical figures and historical events to everyone.

The history of the Tang Dynasty was basically finished after Chen Fan uncovered Wu Zetian.

Even if there are still some things that have not been said later, just leave it to others to dig out slowly.

As for Chen Fan, there are more important tasks to do.

……

"Brother Fan, where have you been?"

"I am, I am in Xuchang."

"Where is Xuchang?"

"Uh……"

Chen Fan vomited some blood.

Knew it.

The history of the Three Kingdoms is really not too many people are interested in.

Or.

It's not that not many people are interested, but many people don't know about it.

But it's normal to think about it.

In the history of the Three Kingdoms in this world, he is like the Sixteen Kingdoms in our eyes in the previous life, or the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.

Well, please.

Which sixteen countries are there?

Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, which are the Five Dynasties and which Ten Kingdoms?
and so.

Xuchang, the place where Cao Cao's stronghold during the Three Kingdoms period, not to mention that ordinary people don't know it, even a group of experts probably only know one place.

"Xuchang, he is in the Central Plains Province."

"Oh, I know, it seems to be a fourth-tier city."

"more or less."

"I'll go, Brother Fan, you're not staying in Xi'an, why did you go to a fourth-tier city. What, we thought you went to Luoyang."

Many people had speculated before.

After Chen Fan left Xi'an, the first place he went to was Luoyang.

after all.

If it is a famous historical and cultural city.

Luoyang is also a famous city with incomparable history and culture.

There is also much more to tell if you go there.

But why did Xuchang, a little-known fourth-tier city, come here?

"Luoyang is going, but not now... Now let's come to Xuchang first, and talk to you about some heroes who appeared here in Xuchang."

"Are there any other heroes in Xuchang?"

Everyone was a little confused.

But at this time, some fans remembered the reporter interviewed by Chen Fan before: "Brother Fan, don't tell me, you really plan to study the history of the Three Kingdoms."

"what happened?"

"Brother Fan, what is there to say about the Three Kingdoms, he has nothing exciting."

"Who said no."

Chen Fan also knew why everyone had such doubts.

When the history of the Three Kingdoms has not been popularized, I am afraid that everyone will ask this question.

Don't talk about them.

Even a group of experts, it is estimated that they are not very interested in the Three Kingdoms.

After all, historians, historical experts... When they study certain history, they also look at the acceptance of ordinary people.

Like Tang History, Song History, Ming History...then a lot of people like it.

Studying this, whether it is the audience or others, is more promising.

Can you study the history of the Three Kingdoms?

Although it is not to say that research is impossible, but you think about the future.

Even if you become a professor, there may not be someone who will report to your class at that time.

Or you want to come up with a book about the Three Kingdoms period, sorry, no one is interested in buying it.

Therefore, there are really too few people who really study the history of those unpopular dynasties.

"Today, I will tell you about a very awesome character in the Three Kingdoms period."

"Who?"

"Cao Cao."

"I'll go, Brother Fan, don't scold people."

"I never scolded anyone."

"Then what are you talking about?"

"I……"

Chen Fan almost vomited blood, and said, "Cao Cao is a man's name, his name is Meng De, yes, he is the famous King Wu of Wei during the Three Kingdoms period."

Ugh.

There is really no way.

This world is really illiterate to the Three Kingdoms.

But this thought.

Chen Fan knew that there was a long way to go to popularize the history of the Three Kingdoms.

but.

When he thought of the wonderful Three Kingdoms in his previous life, no matter how far away he was, Chen Fan had to give him a scientific record.
