[Ming Dynasty] I seem to know too much

Chapter 116 Extra Story: The beginning of the chapter is already old

"Careful, this machine is going over there."

"Hey, I still need a hand here, hold it steady and don't fall down."

"Okay, keep it like this!"

When Dr. Chen walked all the way, his ears were filled with such voices, but his face was also filled with the same excitement as these people.

As a historian, it is undoubtedly a very happy moment to be able to come to the scene of historical witness in person.Even if he is not the host of this maintenance, but just an invited participant, Dr. Chen is equally delighted.

The restoration of Kangling this time was started with the support of the government after people from all walks of life worked together. In order to achieve the restoration to the greatest extent, the government invited many senior experts.

Dr. Chen is one of them.

And he came back in order to be able to research the identity of the other master of Kangling, the empress of Emperor Zhengde—Empress Jing.

Emperor Zhengde's records in the history books are very polarized, and some of them are full of praise, wishing to praise Emperor Zhengde to the sky.Some are full of critical words, belittled to the point of being inferior to a subjugated king.

But in any case, there is one thing that Zheng Yeshi can't obliterate, and that is his achievements.Even under Taizu Chengzu, his brilliance could not be concealed at all.

But there is another point, which is the point that the historians criticized the most, that is, the emperor married a male queen.And Emperor Zhengde, like his father Emperor Hongzhi, was the only favorite in the harem, and there was no one else in the huge harem.

It is precisely because of Emperor Zhengde's brazen actions that from then until now, no matter what gender they are, they can register for marriage.

It has to be said that Emperor Zhengde played a big role in it, and since then he has reversed a certain atmosphere.

Dr. Li entered the tomb under the leadership of several students, all of whom were students of another archaeological expert, Professor Zhang, who came a few days earlier than Dr. Li.

"Originally, I just planned to repair the outer area, but it turned out that there was a robbery hole in the Kangling Mausoleum. So I planned to take a look at the condition of the main tomb. But the government didn't plan to excavate, and everything will be put back after sorting out." Because Dr. Li It was not here before, because the boy who took the lead introduced him while walking.

Dr. Li couldn't help nodding, he didn't deny the importance of archeology.But it would be best if the damage to the original site can be reduced.

"Here it is, you go in." The students sent Dr. Li in, turned around and started to do their homework again. Professor Zhang assigned tasks to each of them, and there was a deadline for the time they could keep, so they could only race against time. Continue to study.

It took Dr. Li more than half an hour just to come in from the front, and it was only now that he barely entered the main tomb.In order to reduce damage to the ruins, very few people can enter, except for professionals, even leaders are not allowed to enter.

"Old Li, you are finally here." A little old man's headlight shone on Dr. Li, and he was immediately happy, "You are several days late."

Dr. Li said with a smile, "No way, you're too late. This is the fastest plane I can book." As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes were already attracted by the situation in the room.

It is not surprising that the main tomb attracts attention.But unexpectedly, there was only one coffin in the main tomb.

In other words, Emperor Zhengde and his empress lived together in the same quilt and died in the same hole in the true sense.

In fact, there is not a lot of information about the empress of Emperor Zhengde, and just occasionally finding a little bit of information in archaeology is enough to make them, who are majors in archaeology and history, very happy.This time, Professor Zhang, Dr. Li's good friend, knew that he had been looking for this relevant information, so he took great pains to get Dr. Li in.

Professor Zhang pointed to a stone tablet and said, "This thing shouldn't be here, but since it appears here, there must be a reason for its existence."

Dr. Li originally planned to go over there to have a look, but he was attracted by the inscription on the coffin and walked over there unconsciously.Professor Zhang also took it for granted, and walked to the side and said, "These inscriptions make up a lot of news about Queen Jing."

Anyway, I finally know what this person's last name is.

For unknown reasons in his later years, Emperor Zhengde destroyed most of the records about Empress Jing, and even killed several historians at that time, which caused even more criticism from the civil official group.

However, not long after this incident, Emperor Zhengde also passed away, so nothing happened.And Ming Shizong, who succeeded to the throne later, also maintained the previous attitude of Emperor Zhengde, and destroyed all the materials about Queen Jing.

As a result, there are only three lines of information about Empress Jing on Qiandu Encyclopedia!

And this also made historians of later generations think that the relationship between Emperor Zhengde and Empress Jing was not good, and the relationship between Ming Shizong and his stepmother (?) was not good.Most film and television dramas portray Empress Jing as a not-so-positive image.

However, the records on this inscription broke all their fixed impressions.

"...Jiao Shizhi, the emperor gave him the word to let him go, and take carefree and wanton..."

"...traveling with the emperor, encountering King Ning's rebellion, capturing the rebel king...injured, the emperor is worried..."

"In the tenth year of Zhengde, Bo'er was seriously injured, and the Tatar war was ended. It is the past dynasty..."

"In the 11th year of Zhengde, Jiao Shizhi fell into a coma, and the emperor mourned. He married him and adopted several sons."

"In the 28th year of Zhengde, the emperor established Jiao's surname as the prince, and Yi's surname, but the other three sons all changed to Jiao's surname..."

"In the 30th year of Zhengde, the queen went to sea with the ship and had close contacts with several countries..."

……

After Dr. Li carefully read them one by one with a magnifying glass, another half an hour had passed, but he didn't feel the passage of time at all in his heart, and his heart was full of shock.

The inscription on the coffin is almost Jinghuang, which is Jiao Shizhi's official historical record in the true sense.That experience, which was not inferior at all, was not as unbearable as Uno Shi had guessed!

And... why did Emperor Zhengde engrave such a thing on the coffin?Almost like some kind of record.

Dr. Li stood up and walked quickly to the side of the stele, looking at the simpler and more elegant writing, he was even more surprised.

That is indeed an extremely rare language, usually used in prayers and sacrifices, and rarely seen in tombs.

It says -

[Anyone who enters the tomb at a young night can leave safely without being surprised; those who disturb the tranquility will be razed by the nine clans and will not die well! 】

Dr. Li took off his glasses and wiped them with the corner of his clothes for a while, feeling that the content of the inscription was a bit strange.

There is always an indescribable feeling that it is more like Emperor Zhengde's style, rather than written for suppression.He lightly touched the stele with his gloved fingers, walked around it, and found something more unusual in a dark corner behind it.

Most people can't understand the previous characters, but this part is concise and clear traditional characters.

Dr. Li bit the flashlight and took the pen and paper handed over by Professor Zhang to record it.

"I once said that the comments of later generations are all false, but when it really fell on you, I rejected it inexplicably. I burned the history books and ignited the ancient books. If you are still here, I am afraid that you have done something with me. nor would I do this.

However, I would rather no one in future generations know of your existence, and I don’t want you to be nailed to a shelf for others to comment on. This is the only time in my life that I have turned my back on what I said, but unfortunately you can’t see it.

On Huangquan Road, please wait for Shi Zhineng, just wait. "

Dr. Li stopped writing and stared blankly at the thing he just wrote, but he didn't seem to know what it was.

It was almost a pure love letter spanning nearly a thousand years.

The author has something to say:

Don’t take all archaeological and historical knowledge seriously, thank you for your cooperation!
