Previous article"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was buried for 4 years, Maoling was stolen for the first time, and the jade boxes and jade sticks in the underground palace were sold into the market".It is mentioned in 84 BC, that is, the fourth year after the burial of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the burial goods jade boxes and jade sticks in the underground palace of Maoling inexplicably flowed into the market and were bought by a Fufeng person, triggering the first theft crisis of Maoling!Exactly 20 years after the theft of the jade box and jade staff, another absurd and strange thing happened.

In 64 B.C., a medicine picker in Shangdang County was collecting medicine in the mountain, and when he climbed the cliff wall, he found a cave, and the medicine picker climbed into the cave and saw something shining in the cave. The herb picker was full of curiosity, carefully walked into the hole, and finally saw that the glowing thing was a big gold box, the herb picker was overjoyed, tried to hug it very heavy, and tried his best to move the box to the entrance of the cave, by the sun, the gold box was full of bamboo slips, there were more than 40 volumes, including "Lao Tzu" 2 volumes, "Taishang Ziwen" 13 volumes, "Lingji Sutra" 6 volumes, "Taisu Zhongli Sutra" 6 volumes, "Tianzhu Sutra" 9 volumes, "Six Dragons Bu Yuanwen" 7 volumes, "Ma Huang Shouzhenshu" 4 volumes. The herb picker was very surprised, took out a volume, only to see the words "imperial book" printed on it, the herb picker was taken aback, hurriedly put the book back in the closed gold box, thought about it again, and decided to report the situation to the government.

When Zhang Chun, the Taishou of Hedong, heard about this, he immediately sent someone to enter the cave with the medicine picker to take out the gold box, and after determining that the gold box was indeed the burial goods of Emperor Mao Ling of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Chun reported the matter to Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty at that time. After Emperor Xuan of Han found out, he asked the ministers how to deal with itAn old minister suddenly cried bitterly, and said: This is the burial thing of Emperor Xiaowu, I put it into the underground palace with my own hands, how did it appear here?Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was also shocked when he heard this, and strictly ordered an inspection, but there was no progress. After a stalemate for more than a year, when it was impossible to find out who stole the gold chest, Emperor Xuan of Han could only send someone to send the gold box back to Maoling for strict guarding.

When inspecting Maoling, the ** guarding the tomb did not find any traces of theft, and the sealed soil was also intact, and the daily duty was strict and orderly, and there was no record of the loss of items in the mausoleum. But how should this gold box miscellaneous scripture, together with the jade scepter and jade box 20 years ago, be explained?Everyone is scratching their heads!

At present, the most reasonable explanation: when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was buried, there were too many burial goods in the underground palace to be put down, and finally, some of the burial goods were removed from the underground palace and placed in the Maoling Mansion Treasury, including jade boxes, jade rods and gold box miscellaneous scriptures, which are far less rare than other rare treasures. In addition, according to the "New Tang Dynasty Book: Yu Shinan Biography", it is recorded that Emperor Wu has been for a long time, and it can be known that there are no more things in the mausoleum than the burial. Therefore, such a scenario is entirely possible and not unfounded imagination. Later, the mausoleum keepers continued to change, and it was inevitable that some people would steal some small items and steal them, resulting in the illusion that the Maoling underground palace was stolen. To put it bluntly, it is the mausoleum keeper who guards and steals himself!

Otherwise, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty painstakingly built 53 years of Maoling, the underground palace is deep, the hidden arrows are ambushed, and the solidity is abnormalIf there is, it is really the reincarnation of the Daluo Immortal!

Although the first two times were not dangerous, but half a century later, the Western Han Dynasty came to an end, and Maoling will really usher in its "catastrophe", and the two "catastrophes" (Red Eyebrows Green Forest Uprising, Yellow Turban Uprising) made Maoling a "fish and meat" on the board, which was slaughtered by others, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was even dragged out of the corpse and exposed!
