The soldiers at that time saw that the entire bottom of the cave was covered by some large tiles, and among these tiles were strands of golden light!

Except for the tiles, the golden color is the most conspicuous, and there are a lot of them.

Aside from these, there are rotten wood, bronzes, pottery, and wine jars. On the west side of the cave, there is a larger cavern, which is six or seven meters high.

According to later experts' speculation, this is a large tomb with a history of at least a thousand years, and its scale is unimaginable!

Among the cultural relics brought back by the soldiers from the tomb, there are bronze wares engraved with the words "Zhongshan Neifu".

Based on this, experts judge that this tomb dates from the Western Han Dynasty, but there were ten "Zhongshan Kings" in the Western Han Dynasty, and the specific ones are still to be identified.

Therefore, the tomb was named "Mancheng Han Tomb No. 1".

Because the ancient tomb was discovered by accident and had not been destroyed by anyone, the identity of the owner of the tomb was quickly confirmed.

When the excavation project advanced to the middle room, a bronze wine set "Zuo Yu" was unearthed, and the words "Zhongshan Neifu" and "[-] years" were written on the top of it.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not have a reign title before, and the year was expressed by the number of years in power. Among the ten kings of Zhongshan, only one reigned for more than 30 years.

At this point, the identity of the owner of the tomb was finally confirmed.

He is the son of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, the half-brother of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the grandfather of Liu Bei's grandfather... Liu Sheng, the first generation of King Jing of Zhongshan!

Liu Bei called himself "Queen of King Jing of Zhongshan" whenever he met, and he relied on Liu Sheng's "noble blood" and royal status.

Although this one did not become the emperor, he was also a winner in life.

In the early days of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in view of the lessons of the "Seven Kingdoms Rebellion", the ministers were critical of the princes and kings.

At the imperial banquet, Liu Sheng cried to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, stating that the officials bullied the princes and kings. After hearing this, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty felt very sympathetic and comforted the princes and kings.

In order to weaken the emperor's guard against him, Liu Sheng indulged in wine and sex, and indulged in indulgence. He was once evaluated as "extravagant" by his own brother. "Han Shu" said that he had more than 120 sons alone.

In 113 BC, Liu Sheng, who had been a rich and idle man all his life, died at the age of 53.

After Liu Sheng died, he brought a large number of treasures into the tomb.

Liu Sheng, who wants to continue to enjoy after death, may not have imagined that his tomb will be presented to the world more than 2000 years later because of an "unintentional" blasting operation.

The discovery this time turned various deeds about him from written records into real objects that can be verified.

In fact, these are not important. What is important is that if there is tomb No. [-], there must be tomb No. [-], which is the tomb of Liu Sheng's wife.

In it, a golden jade dress was also found, which was a couple outfit worn by Liu Sheng.

Moreover, the world-famous Changxin Palace Lantern was also unearthed from Dou Wan's tomb.

"Changxin" is the name of the dormitory of Liu Sheng's grandmother, Empress Dowager Dou. This lamp may have belonged to the palace of Empress Dowager Dou, and was given to her natal family Dou Wan by the Empress Dowager.

Its appearance is gilded all over, and it is carved into the appearance of a court lady kneeling and holding a lamp, and each part can be disassembled.

The lamp panel can be rotated, the lampshade can be opened and closed in the circular track, and even the size and direction of the light can be adjusted.

The maid's body is hollow, and after the candle is burned, smoke and dross enter the body through her right arm, which will not pollute the indoor environment.

When this cultural relic was exhibited in the beautiful country, then Secretary of State Kissinger was amazed: Chinese people were aware of environmental protection 2000 years ago, which is really amazing!

This accidental archaeological excavation is as important as the discovery of the Sanxingdui and Haihunhou tombs.

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe did not believe that anything could be lost from these two tombs.

Then, the origin of the little bear cauldron in front of him is worth studying.

It probably really came from a Han tomb, but where is this Han tomb and who does it belong to?

There were ten "Zhongshan Kings" in the Western Han Dynasty. Is this the funeral object of one of them?

Also, has this Han tomb been emptied?If it was emptied, where did everything go?

It turned out that Chen Wenzhe didn't have this kind of thought when he encountered bronze wares, mainly because there were too many funerary objects in the Han tomb.

What's more, this little bear tripod is the same as the one in Liu Sheng's tomb!

If this was also unearthed from the tomb of King Jing of Zhongshan, how many things were buried in the tomb?

Not to mention other things, Chen Wenzhe's heart is full of enthusiasm to see how much the first generation Zhongshan Prince Jing and his wife were buried with them!

A total of tens of thousands of cultural relics were unearthed from the two tombs, and many of them are national treasures, such as gold-plated and silver-plated pots with dragon patterns, which are resplendent and elegant.

A gilt ewer with silver milk nail pattern, cross-dotted with silver milk nails and green glaze.

The wrong Jinboshan furnace is exquisite in workmanship and gorgeous in decoration.

The Suzaku title ring cup is inlaid with gold and inlaid with 30 turquoises.

The sheep statue lamp has a unique design, and the belly of the sheep is hollow, which can store oil.

……

Of course, these are not the most important, the most important thing is the golden jade clothes inside.

The first generation of Prince Jing of Zhongshan and his wife all wore them. They don’t know how many generations of descendants have worn them too?

If it was worn, was that golden jade robe taken out of the tomb?

If it was brought out, where did it go?

According to the legends about jade clothes made of golden hazel all over the world, there seems to be no foreign countries!

In China, among the eight tombs discovered in total, there are jade clothes with golden thread, but only five have been completely restored.

Calculated in this way, in fact, the full count is eight pieces.

Now there are many legends, some say more than ten, and some say more than twenty.

No matter how many, there are at most eight pieces of information that can be confirmed anyway.

Gold hazel jade clothes, how much is this thing worth?

Let’s just talk about the piece of Liu Sheng earlier, someone estimated it at 45 billion!

Also, in the 90s, there was a case of fraudulent loan fraud by the golden jade clothes, which defrauded more than 20 billion at that time.

In other words, a well-preserved golden jade garment is worth 20 billion.

With so few things, if they were dug out earlier, then Chen Wenzhe would have had a chance to collect them, right?

If it was something else, he might not be tempted. However, when it comes to a Han king's tomb, considering the number of funeral objects, it must be a large number of treasures.

After encountering this kind of treasure, it would be a lie to say that Chen Wenzhe was not moved.

He wanted to see the situation, and if the treasures remained in the country, he would hand in the information he had obtained and prepare to be rewarded for his meritorious service again.

If the loss is overseas, then you have to think of a way and see how to get it.

The cultural relics that have been lost overseas have not yet been known. Through this little bear tripod, maybe they can really be traced.

China has a long history and splendid culture, but since modern times, it has suffered heavy losses, especially some "national treasures with a level of one billion".

From the Xia Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, China has a large number of historical relics, including some precious national treasures.

Among China's national treasure-level cultural relics, there are some top-level ones, worth hundreds of millions or billions, which we call "billion-level national treasures".
