Nanjing Xiangshan once unearthed a mausoleum, when I first came to the tomb, according to archaeologists to investigate this should be a historical tomb, and when the coffin was unearthed archaeologists opened it, everyone was very surprised.
It turned out that people found that there were two people in the coffin, it was obvious that this was a joint burial tomb, which is very common in China, generally two wives buried together or buried with the magnates.
First, the atmosphere of the Eastern Jin Dynasty
What was strange was that in addition to the two people and the gold and silver jewelry in the coffin, there were many black pills scattered around them. Because I know that the ancient people were obsessed with immortality, everyone has speculated that this pill will not be the legendary elixir of immortality?
Soon after all the news about the tomb was released, it was a great disappointment that these pills were not the legendary elixirs, they were what the ancients called the drug Five Stones.
Then the dynasty of this ancient tomb is obvious, collecting so many five stones and putting it in their own coffins, so obsessed with it that they can't forget the five stones even if they die, then these two people must be the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The Jin Dynasty was a magical, individualistic era, and I think it had something to do with the system at that time. Door valves, scholars and doctors occupy an absolutely dominant position in society, do not need to be examined, do not have to make a living. Cao Cao, who founded the Jin Dynasty, was himself a person who challenged the social system, and it may be because of his influence that the Jin dynasty people especially favored Jian'an literature.
Because the government was too complicated, many scholars and doctors avoided talking about it, but advocated metaphysics and liked to talk about it. There are real celebrities here, and there are also vassals and elegant, in fact, most of them are not a few pounds. In this way, it seems that the nobles of the Eastern Jin Dynasty are a bunch of rich and powerful lords who are not short of money, and they will be together to sniff drugs and flirt with good family women, and they will be debauched all day without a proper shape.
At that time, the rich and powerful nobles also liked to return to the pastoral life, in fact, they took their domestic servants to the wild, the servants hunted and farmed the fields and they lived the life of idle clouds and wild cranes, and the people of the Wei and Jin Dynasties who were affected by these customs often pursued a kind of spiritual satisfaction, so the medicine of wushisan, which would make people mentally satisfied, came into being.
Second, the drugs are scattered
Later, the five stones became a symbol of identity and power, and after taking the five stones, it will bring people a feeling of mental fullness and make people fall into a beautiful hallucination, but when the pleasure dissipates, the user will have a strong sense of exhaustion.
It is said that in order to show themselves, some fallen nobles who could not afford to buy five stones were lying in the street in public to pretend that they had just finished taking the five stones.
Five stone powder is a kind of addictive drug, similar to other drugs long-term use of five stone powder will not only make people lose morale, but also produce a series of side effects, such as decreased reproductive ability, easy fatigue, weak body and so on...
The reason why the Eastern Jin Dynasty Wushishan was very popular may be that people did not recognize its harm. According to records, Wushishan is addictive, and Sun Simiao, the king of medicine in the early Tang Dynasty, found that Wushishan is very harmful to people's bodies, which will make people hallucinate and become addicted to taking drugs, so he began to travel around.
Sun Simiao lobbied around to persuade everyone not to take Wushishan anymore, and the harm of this formula was gradually understood by everyone. After people discovered the harm of the five stones, the people of later dynasties devoted themselves to removing the five stones.
It can be seen that the five stones are drugs, in modern times, if you are addicted to drugs, you will lose a lot of money, and the high amount of drug money, but also make the average family unbearable, a person's original rich family If he is addicted to drugs, then his rich family will soon become a family full of walls and debts. In the face of his own family, he will become more and more passive and eventually not even manage the family, resulting in constant quarrels with his wife and finally may even turn against the enemy of the family.
And the father of a child born in such a family, regardless of whether the mother loves him or not, his physical and mental health will inevitably be greatly traumatized, and when he grows up, he may have a perverted psychology, and may even retaliate against society and embark on the road of crime.
Drugs were also a flood beast in ancient times, and as long as they were contaminated, no matter how poor or rich they were, they would be blessed with short lives, and their misfortunes would plague their children.
3. Father and daughter are buried together
Speaking of this tomb, the two people in the coffin are very shocking, the two of them are not husband and wife but a father and daughter, this abnormal burial method makes many people very puzzled, probably have seen the feeling that pigs will run or not see pigs flying.
According to the information released by archaeologists, we can learn that these two people are from the powerful Wang family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the male is named Wang Bin, who was a hero who assisted Sima Rui, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, from Shandong to Nanjing, and the woman is his eldest daughter named Wang Danhu.
According to historical records, Wang Danhu of the Eastern Jin Dynasty royal family never married in his lifetime, and Wang Bin not only liked to take five stones, but also worked tirelessly to refine the rumored elixir of immortality.
Why Wang Danhu has not been married in his life, there are two theories, one is that the most important point for a man to marry a woman in ancient times is to have children, and Wang Danhu, who was born in a famous family, has not married in his lifetime, it is not difficult for us to speculate, because long-term use of five stones caused her body to have side effects and then lost her fertility.
Another theory is that she never married until she finally ended up alone, perhaps a tragedy created by the times. According to the epitaph, Wang Danhu was born in 302 AD. When she was 18 years old, Sima Rui, who had successfully come to Nanjing with the help of her father, ascended the throne as emperor, and his father was also promoted by the emperor to become a powerful official servant in the dynasty, equivalent to the position of prime minister for posterity.
So my father became a popular figure in the capital, and every day there were many matchmakers from the relationship, nobles, and figures in the palace. It did not take long for the war to break out, and the capital city of Nanjing was even breached, so that the scene of the country breaking through the mountains and rivers made Wang Danhu have no intention of getting married. Therefore, she never married, whether before she was alive or behind, she chose to accompany her father.
Can not marry Wang Danhu alone, the reason may be because of the tragedy caused by taking five stone scatter, and the father who was fortunate to accompany her not only took five stone powder himself, but also took his daughter together, according to the historical background, if Wang Bin does not know the harm of five stone scatter, then he is estimated to also love Wang Danhu very much, ironically, his love but finally killed his daughter.
Wang Bin's pursuit of the elixir did not make him immortal, the happiness brought by taking the five stones was to pay the price of his own physical health and the procreation of his daughter, and he took the five stones for a long time to the end of his life and indulged in the elixir, and he worked hard all his life for ethereal happiness to finally gain something.
