Chapter 407

Is it necessary to make such a big move to move a brother's epitaph?

However, the next second, a middle-aged man walked to Xiang Fangyang in a hurry.

He said with a smile: "Xiang Fangyang! I didn't expect you to come to our place today."

"I haven't reacted yet, and you sent such a big surprise!"

"Don't worry, I have enough manpower here, you just dig, leave the rest to us!"

Good guy, Xiang Fangyang finally understood.

This guy brought a sack to pack money!

244. Literary leader, political prime minister, Shangguan Wan'er's life.

After the Cultural Relics Bureau arrived at the scene, they immediately started the excavation work of the epitaph.

More than a dozen people held small shovels and surrounded the bottom, shoveling mud little by little.

Even the mud in the gaps of the fonts was brushed clean with a brush.

The middle-aged man is the director of the Cultural Relics Bureau, surnamed Lin.

When he learned that Xiang Fangyang came here on the phone, he was so excited that he almost jumped up.

This is not, he rushed over with people without stopping.

Looking at the epitaph getting clearer and clearer at the bottom, he also read it curiously.

Thousands of words were read in a while.

It explained Shangguan Wan'er's life in detail.

It's just that the content recorded on it is completely different from the impression in his mind.

He was shocked on the spot!

"This..."

"Xiang Fangyang, have you read the content on it? If it is introduced according to this..."

"Doesn't it mean that what is recorded in the history books is wrong?"

Xiang Fangyang smiled slightly: "History has always been written by the winner. This is normal!"

"Hiss... then this discovery today is incredible, this is equivalent to rewriting history!"

Tiger next to him couldn't understand the conversation between the two at all.

Couldn't help but ask curiously: "Who is Shangguan Wan'er? How did it rewrite history?"

Director Lin was just about to answer, but suddenly thought of Xiang Fangyang.

Then he waved his hand with a smile: "With Xiang Fangyang here, I won't be ugly, let Xiang Fangyang say it."

Xiang Fangyang didn't shirk, looked at the epitaph and spoke slowly.

"Before understanding Shangguan Wan'er, let's talk about the historical records about her."

"In history, Shangguan Wan'er was Wu Zetian's private secretary, with high power and a chaotic private life."

"Because she messed around with Wu Sansi and Empress Wei, opposed Li Tang, and as a result, she was executed by Li Longji in a coup!"

"But now, looking at this epitaph, it's completely different!"

"What is recorded on the epitaph is how Shangguan Wan'er opposed Empress Wei, which is a 180-degree turn."

"And Princess Taiping also appeared in the epitaph."

"You should have heard of Princess Taiping, another outstanding woman in the Tang Dynasty who also wanted to be a female emperor."

"But in the previous historical records, it was completely unknown what the relationship between Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er was."

"Only know that they knew each other, but didn't know the specific relationship."

"But the name of Princess Taiping appeared in this epitaph."

"Princess Taiping was sad, donated 500 pieces of silk, sent envoys to mourn, and the words were moving."

"The general meaning of this sentence is that this tomb was arranged by Princess Taiping."

"The epitaph in front of us was also carved by someone found by Princess Taiping."

"So the specification of Shangguan Wan'er's epitaph is very high."

"For this reason, Princess Taiping also donated a lot of money and sent people to mourn."

"Even in the end, this epitaph was written by Princess Taiping herself, so it is called moving words."

Many people from the Cultural Relics Bureau listened carefully while Xiang Fangyang explained.

Because what he is talking about now is not recorded in history.

It can be said that once this epitaph is announced today.

It is also a small shock to the history and archaeological circles.

The netizens in the live broadcast room listened with great interest.

This is first-hand historical data.

Even the top historical masters don't know it.

After listening to this lesson today, they can even go out and brag.

【Popularity】+1+1+1+1.

——【Did you find that every time it develops into a prosperous era, women's rights will gradually become higher. For example, the Tang Dynasty, for example, modern times. Look at the Wu Zetian era, several strong women came out at once, giving me the feeling that people's thinking is enlightened. Dare to break the shackles of this world, other dynasties also have strong women, but not so dense.】

——【Suddenly understand the greatest use of the conciseness of classical Chinese. After all, the tombstone will not be too big. If it is like modern Chinese, it will take a wall to introduce her life in detail. How big a tomb must be to hold it!】

——【Speechless, after listening to Teacher Xiang's explanation, I specifically searched for Shangguan Wan'er, wanting to understand her life story, but all I searched for were games.】

——【The big context of history books is correct, but when it comes to historical details, it all depends on the emperor and the writer's preferences, arbitrarily tampering with it. Speaking of which, I have to mention the preciousness of the *Yongle Encyclopedia*. For its authenticity, Zhu Di even recorded his own bad things, so it achieved a classic.】

——【Haha, in the future, archaeological experts can say that digging graves is to restore real history. Last time I saw a news report that a man who dug his own ancestral grave was sentenced to death, I was speechless!】

Xiang Fangyang continued: "From this, it can be read that Shangguan Wan'er received a good education since she was a child."

"She became famous at a young age, and many people have heard of such a person."

"She was very learned. When she was 13, Wu Zetian wanted to test her and gave her a proposition essay."

"As a result, she answered fluently. Wu Zetian liked her very much and arranged for her to stay by her side as a secretary."

"You have to know that she was only 13 years old at the time."

"We modern people are just in junior high school at 13, and she has already become the female emperor's secretary, entering the highest level."

"In the following thirty-plus years, she has been working in the core leadership layer."

"In charge of the edicts in the palace, known as the female prime minister."

"Sima Guang once said that she used the name of punishment and reward to control the world. Many civil and military officials bowed to her."

"And she is not only a political leader, but also a literary leader at the time."

"This is unique in the history of Chinese ancient literature."

"Only Shangguan Wan'er leads the style and comments on the talents of the world."

"Such a person who often helps handle government affairs by Wu Zetian's side has an unimaginable relationship with Wu Zetian."

"Here I will give you another knowledge point."

"In fact, Wu Zetian is Shangguan Wan'er's father-killing enemy. She killed Shangguan Wan'er's father and grandfather!"

Once these words came out.

Many people were stunned.

Those who knew were okay.

But those who didn't know were like being struck by lightning when they heard such words.

From Xiang Fangyang's mouth, one can hear the importance of Shangguan Wan'er to Wu Zetian.

The secretary closest to her was actually the one whose biological father was killed by her.

This is simply unbelievable.

Tiger asked blankly: "So exaggerated? Then why did Shangguan Wan'er have no movement for 30 years?"

Xiang Fangyang smiled and explained: "She not only had no movement, but was also loyal."

"This matter has to start with Shangguan Yi, he is Shangguan Wan'er's grandfather!"

"He was also the Prime Minister of Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi of Tang!"

"In 664 AD, Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi and Wu Zetian had a power struggle."

"He came to ask Shangguan Yi for his opinion."

"Shangguan Yi didn't like Wu Zetian anyway, and when he saw the opportunity, his brain got hot!"
