Hello everyone, I am Qiuping
I am now in Wu'an, Hubei
I came to Wuhan again
Since ancient times
Hubei is known as a place with outstanding people
It was called the land of Jingchu in early times
So the history and culture of this place is quite profound.
Among them, the most representative
Maybe it was during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period
A Chu State
Then tomorrow comes
There was a vassal king
Because after Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, he made Nanjing his capital
He then distributed his sons to various parts of the country
So we are in the land of China
Tombs of Ming Dynasty vassals can be seen everywhere
So Hubei was very important at that time
Let’s talk about how many vassal kings there are in Hubei
Zhong Xiang’s Ming Ming Tomb was originally a vassal king
What about in Wuhan?
There was a king of Chu
There is also a prince in Xiangyang
There is an understanding king in Jingzhou
So there are many
can prove
Hubei is a place with a key geographical location
So where do we come today?
A tomb of King Zhao belonging to Wuhan
Is there such a saying?
There are Ming Tombs in the north
To the south is the Tomb of the King of Chu
The King of Chu is in Wuhan
Follow the inheritance of the Ming Dynasty
The establishment of the Ming Dynasty
The King of Chu existed
The Ming Dynasty perished
King Chu no longer exists
Now let's go and see
What are the characteristics of this Chu King’s Tomb?
We are now in
This is equivalent to Shinto
It can be clearly seen
There are no stone statues here
Why is it because his tomb is earlier?
Normally speaking
The one below is a strip stone.
It was King Zhao of Chu at that time
King Chu’s coffin and his princess
Just from here all the way to the bottom
The one in his underground palace
Who is this King Zhao of Chu?
We just briefly talked about
He is the sixth son of Zhu Yuanzhang
Everyone is very familiar with Zhu Yuanzhang’s son
Zhu Biao and Zhu Di
These two are the most famous ones.
Then Zhu Di became emperor later
This Chu King Zhu Zhen
It was just right when he was born
It was at that time that Zhu Yuanzhang captured Wuchang
So I named him Zhu Zhen
Later he was named King of Chu
Everyone knows that Emperor Jingchu of Hubei Province
Then make him the King of Chu
It just shows that you value him.
Finally, when Zhu Zhen was in his teens,
He will submit
Because Zhu Yuanzhang sent his son
Distributed to all parts of the country
You are like the boss, Zhu Biao, who is the prince
The second child belongs to Xi'an and is responsible for managing Xi'an.
It is equivalent to running the northwest now
The third child seems to have arrived in the north.
Anyway, they are in relatively important positions.
Especially their former son
What about after arriving in Wuchang?
This Zhu Zhen didn’t say that he would just eat and wait to die.
We often talk about the vassals of the Ming Dynasty
Maybe it’s just that I don’t have the ability.
You can only dominate and dominate your own one-third of an acre of land.
He's not
Zhu Zhen grew up in the early years of the Ming Dynasty
so what
He is the same as Zhu Di, the vassal kings who guard the frontiers.
Able to conquer and fight well
He assessed that we are equivalent to Hunan
Guizhou Yunnan
Anyway, these large and small ones near Hubei
The bandits we are talking about are not bad either.
Either uprising
They were all pacified
So his military exploits are more prominent
Everyone will know later
After Zhu Yuanzhang's death
Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne as emperor
He cut the vassalage
As a result, Xue Fan failed
This led to Zhu Di raising troops to capture Nanjing.
Normally speaking
In this place Wuchang
What was the purpose of Zhu Yuanzhang establishing Zhu Zhen?
Guard the capital
Because Wuhan is very close to Nanjing
If there is a problem in Nanjing
Then this vassal king near Nanjing
We need to bring troops to Beijing to protect
This is equivalent to what we call raising an army to capture the king.
As a result, Zhu Di captured Nanjing.
Where is Zhu Zhen?
Stand still
Why is it actually simpler?
You can put it this way
Zhu Di and Chu King Zhu Zhen
These vassal kings, big and small
He is dissatisfied with Zhu Yunwen
feel like a spearhead kid
How can we lead the Ming Dynasty forward?
So when Zhu Di attacked Nanjing,
He just stood still
As a result, after Zhu Di entered Nanjing,
Won the throne
After becoming emperor
He also attaches great importance to King Chu
Promoted him to Zongzheng of the Zhongren Mansion in the Ming Dynasty
What does it mean?
That's Zhu Chang
Where is Chu King Zhu Zhen?
It's equivalent to managing the entire royal affairs
Manage vassal kings across the country
So the king of Chu Zhu Zhen
Attracted by father and son Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di
The basic story is this
Now let's go inside
Look at the overall structure of his cemetery
This place is called Longquan Mountain
Where is the tomb of King Chu?
It was the ones he chose for himself during his lifetime.
Because he went to Wuchang at that time
When I came to visit Wuer Longquan Mountain,
He discovered that this place is what we often call
Feng shui is very good
A great place for an eaglet
so what
He designated this place as his cemetery
Circled him
What is the most interesting one?
There is a tomb of Fan Kuai in this cemetery.
In the earliest days, cubes were buried here.
Later, in order to build his mausoleum, King Chu
So I moved the square tomb aside.
The climate here is still relatively low.
Because it belongs in the deep mountains and old forests
Normally this kind of mausoleum?
They're all in the mountains
Farther away
It's dozens of kilometers away from Wuhan city.
This place is called Jinshui Bridge
Basically the tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties
There will always be a Jinshui Bridge like this
Why does the forest area have a drainage system?
Usually there is a small river under the bridge.
Among the emperors, they are generally called water dragons.
What about this place?
There's nothing special to say
These places
It can be seen that it is darker
why is that
Because we looked at it
Obviously everyone knows
It was burned by Li Zicheng with a big fire
Then who destroyed the Chu King’s Tomb?
Was burned down by Zhang Jianzhong
The wooden structure here?
Basically no more
Many of them have been restored now
So it’s a pity
That same
This Chu King’s Tomb
He was from the time of Zhu Yuanzhang
He began to submit in Wuchang
When will it be gone?
He basically ran through the entire history of the Ming Dynasty
He is at the back
The last generation of King Chu was killed by Zhang Xianzhong
Throw it into the Yangtze River
So the inheritance of King Chu is gone.
It's a pity that these were burned.
It's all pitch black
What about these places?
There are also 24 English carved lines
Basically, the imperial tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties are all the same.
So say it again
Imperial Tombs of the Ming Dynasty
Most of the rules are the same as those of the imperial tombs of the Qing Dynasty.
Because the Qing Dynasty basically learned from the Ming Dynasty
Now we are standing in this place
I saw a lot of tombs
I knew this was the spiritual grace gate
In front is the Spiritual Grace Hall
What about here?
It is 5 rooms wide
Two rooms deep
It's relatively big
Look at the one with these rocks below
Uh, let's talk about residence.
can be found
Then let’s go to the Lingen Hall in front and take a look.
That might be the important thing
Of course, in Lin'en Hall
There is still a piece of history that I want to explain to you.
Many people say
Why did people like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong fail?
Because that's their limitation
He was right to oppose the Ming Dynasty
But he burned all the imperial tombs of the Ming Dynasty
This was among the four provinces at that time
The impact is very large
You are like other dynasties
You look like the Qing Dynasty
A little bit
He doesn't care what the reason is
At least he didn't destroy the tombs of the Ming Dynasty
everyone can see
The Ming Tombs in Beijing can be preserved so completely
Part of it is still from the Qing Dynasty
The emperor at that time ordered to protect the Ming Tombs
And Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum
In fact, we can still see the difference.
Although it is said that the Qing Dynasty was in order to maintain its rule,
But at least this
I think what he did was quite good.
The building behind me is very big
Imperial Tombs of the Ming Dynasty
The feudal prince’s tomb might as well be called the Reigenjeon Hall
In the Qing Dynasty, it was called Longgen Hall.
Because the Qing Dynasty learned from the Ming Dynasty
But this place is called Linggen Hall
A little less rigorous
Why this mausoleum?
It was established in the early Ming Dynasty
And what is the name of Lingen Temple?
It was started by Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty
Before Emperor Jiajing, this area was called Xiangdian
You look like Ming Xiaoling
Zhu Di’s Changling Mausoleum is also called Xiangdian.
So what happened when Zhu Zhen died?
Zhu Di is still alive
So his mausoleum is a little earlier than Zhu Di's
So it should be better to call it Xiangdian
Although it is said that it was changed later by Emperor Jiajing
But after all, he still belongs to us
Probably more than 100 years earlier than Jiajing
You're like quite a pedestal here
Isn’t it spectacular to see these dragon heads?
Let me explain something to you.
Everyone knows that there is Longtu Water in the Forbidden City
You can also see some here
So this place actually says
If the weather is different,
if it rains heavily
All water comes down
Very spectacular
These are all carved from white marble stone
Look how many layers there are
One floor, two floors, three floors, four floors, five floors, six floors
The whole thing
All are huge stones
Put the full length words here
about one meter
So I met you at this place
If it rains heavily
very spectacular
So the ancient designers at that time
The builder is amazing, right?
There is also a dragon carved on it.
Above is the engraved line
That's normal here
Show it to everyone
Originally, there should be
We often make single wall stones
But because of his identity
Not up to the emperor's standards
So there is no single wall stone
It's already oxidized
So this mausoleum is actually so big?
Lingen Temple is Xiang Temple
In fact, it can also represent Zhu Di.
Attention to him
Because he can be the patriarch of the royal family we are talking about.
He must have a good relationship with Zhu Di
Zhu Di thinks more highly of him
Behind the Lingen Hall or Xiang Hall
It’s the Lingxing Gate
From here, it represents what he said is the same as ascending to immortality.
It's his soul
Come in through the spiritual door
If you go forward, you will find yourself in the underground palace.
He is also on a mountain
It’s different from other tombs in the Ming Dynasty.
We said that we built a treasure city treasure tripod
Where is his underground palace?
Directly inside the mountain
Because basically there were only emperors in the Ming Dynasty
He's the one who built that treasure city treasure tripod.
The words of his other vassal kings
It's basically like building an underground palace inside the mountain.
What about this place?
Show it to everyone
It's underneath the underground palace
There is a building here
In fact, I think it is a bit loose.
Why do people see incense burners and candlesticks?
Fang Ping
Normally speaking
You can see it here in the Ming Dynasty
Belongs to someone who pays fifteen tributes
But it shouldn't be here
Why
When did the fifteen tributes begin in the Ming Dynasty?
From Zhu Di’s Changling
But even the vassal kings who died before Zhu Di
And that Zhu Yuanzhang
There was no such thing before
So this is not rigorous because
For Zhu Zhenna
He died in front of Zhu Di
Is the Chu King’s Tomb an underground palace?
Because the underground palace itself is dug into the mountain
What about his custom?
About 3 meters thick
He actually dug it out first
Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties
There is a very big feature
His underground palace
Dig it out first
build a palace inside
What if you want to plan away the soil on top?
Below is a palace
The palace inside it has been built
Then they covered it with sealing soil
So it is different
What's underneath its terroir?
And charcoal
About 30 centimeters
Used to protect against moisture
So the underground palace inside the imperial tombs of the Ming Dynasty
Basically watertight
But I saw several imperial tombs in the Qing Dynasty.
Water seepage is very serious
You are like Kangxi’s Jingling
And inside Qianlong’s imperial mausoleum
I heard before that there is a lot of water
The palace inside
All structural materials are specially made from the official kilns of the Ming Dynasty.
Excellent, that blue brick
Where are the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty in our country?
There are more existing
Available everywhere in the country
But it’s the same as the tombs of the Han Dynasty
fourteen nine empty
Because theft is more serious
some stolen
Then some of them collapsed
Now go down and take a look
It's several meters deep underground.
Look at how gorgeous it is
very beautiful
What about here?
All are those big blue bricks
There are lights below on the seventh floor
Those are like small niches
Look how big the area is inside
You can see directly in front of him that it's his
Er, the coffins are placed opposite each other at the back.
But wait here
Have a question
Let's explain it to you
Just go down the steps and you will see the tomb chamber.
Look, there are many stairs here
We went up here for the convenience of visiting
Uh, a platform built by
Because it's underneath this
There is a gate, which is equivalent to a stone gate.
Nine horizontally and nine vertically
What is this identity?
What an imperial status
Maybe it was Zhu Di who gave him the identity
Because after all, he is the patriarch of the royal family.
You can see through this screen
His descendant is very big
Normally speaking
The vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty had front, middle and back
In other words, there is a back room
There are also two ear chambers
We only see this back room here now
Then there are a few small ones inside, what are they?
Like a niche to put things in
The coffin is no longer visible
You can see the coffin bed
So just this thick distance?
I looked at the area and saw it was two meters.
About 20 square meters
What about here?
What does this look like below?
It's like an epitaph
Let me introduce the life of this King of Chu
There are some boxes on top
At that time, I probably kept some jewelry and the like.
Look how big this brick is
This design is still very beautiful
It's almost six to seven hundred years old and it's still so intact.
We are standing in this position now
Directly to the door of the back room
Let's rotate it and take a look
Did anyone find out?
The space is very small
Actually, there is a little doubt here
Why is it because of the Tombs of the Three Kings of the Ming Dynasty?
Especially the underground palace where he is so valued
It can't be so small
Normally speaking
Now we see this location in front of us
It's called Chinese style
There is also a front tense
There are some Russian styles on the left and right
He didn't come in here
Then it will directly become the place where the coffin is placed.
That's possible
It was this place that was destroyed back then.
We are talking about the tombs of vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty.
Some have collapsed and collapsed
So what about here?
Might have been repaired
Normally speaking before
What about this place in the middle?
It's Chinese style
What about the latter one?
It's equivalent to looking forward
What about these two sides?
And sight
But it can be clearly seen
Do you think there are only lights in front of you?
It must have been repaired later.
So everyone needs to understand
Look how big his descendants are
What about the Chinese front ear type?
In fact, it’s not too small.
As Zhu Yuanzhang’s most valued son
His tomb is actually quite luxurious.
But there is one thing
It can be said like this
He still betrayed Zhu Yuanzhang
Because Zhu Yuanzhang placed him in the cemetery in Wuchang
That's what we said at the beginning
Equivalent to guarding the capital
But in the end
He stood still
Again
Everyone has their own little thoughts
Well, we just saw that his underground palace is actually relatively small.
It should be said that it is pitifully small.
It is indeed not consistent with the identity of Zhu Yuanzhang’s son.
We also briefly analyzed the reasons
I personally estimate that this is the case
But I don’t know the real reason
Which one do you think it is?
