Third, the mystery of the whereabouts of the original Yongle Dadian in the Ming Dynasty "Yongle Dadian" can be regarded as an ancient book! It is said that 3000 people participated in the compilation, which lasted for three years and contained 22000 volumes. Ming Chengzu was very satisfied and prefaced himself. Regrettably, from the publication of Yongle Dadian to the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the original destination became a case-solving. One view is that Ming Yingzong buried this book in Yongling, and there was a tradition of writing books to mourn in Ming Dynasty. Judging from Ming Yingzong's love for ceremonies, it is likely that life and death are linked. Another view is that when the original was destroyed in the Ming Dynasty, the Wen Yuan Pavilion caught fire, and the original may have been destroyed once. Because the history books do not record the whereabouts of the original, it seems that we can only rely on archaeological discoveries to find the whereabouts of the original.
Fourth, the "Jiuding" of the Western Zhou Dynasty has lost its ancient and modern regrets. It is an artifact of the town house and belongs to the ancient treasure! According to legend, Xia Qi collected rare birds, animals and exotic things, painted them into drawings, and let craftsmen carve them on Jiuding. The tripod symbolizes a country, and Jiuding symbolizes Kyushu, reflecting national unity and centralized kingship. As the treasure of Xia, Shang and Zhou towns, it has been circulated for more than two thousand years. Does Jiuding still exist? It is still an unsolved mystery! According to Records of the Historian, Qin Mugong plundered Jiuding to the capital of Qin, but Hanshu said Jiuding sank in Surabaya, Pengcheng, and never found it again. If Sima Qian's statement is true, Jiuding should fall into the hands of Qin Shihuang, what's more, Du Muyou said that "the first emperor swam out of Zhou Ding"! It is well known that Qin Shihuang cherished Jiuding very much. Jiuding is probably buried in the Mausoleum of the First Qin Dynasty, which has also become the motivation for some archaeologists to encourage the excavation of the Mausoleum of the Qin Dynasty.

5. Where are the twelve bronze men of the Qin Dynasty now? The first emperor of the ages, Qin Shihuang left too many mysteries to future generations, and twelve bronze men were one of them! Why do you want to cast twelve bronze men? The reason is not so important. The disappearance of the twelve bronze men has puzzled future generations! There are three kinds of speculations about the whereabouts of the twelve bronze men: some people say that the overlord of the West Chu conquered Xianyang and set fire to Epang Palace, and the twelve bronze men were burned to death together; Some people say that twelve bronze men were destroyed in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo used up ten copper coins, and the other two were destroyed by Fu Jian. There is another saying that is optimistic. According to historical records, the twelve bronze men were not destroyed. Twelve bronze men were Qin Shihuang's favorite things. After the mausoleum was built, they were buried with other jewels. Due to some technical factors, the excavation of Qin tomb can not be carried out for the time being, so the whereabouts of the twelve bronze men are still unknown.
The Mystery of the Millennium Stainless Bronze Sword The Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shihuang, as the "eighth wonder of the world", are one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of the 20th century! Along with the Terracotta Warriors, a number of bronze swords were unearthed. The body of the sword is bright and clean, and the blade is finely ground. It has been sleeping in the ground for more than two thousand years, bright as new and extremely sharp. Coincidentally, when excavating an ancient tomb in the Spring and Autumn Period, the archaeological team accidentally discovered a sword of Gou Jian, the king of Yue, which was finely crafted and cut iron like mud. These two archaeological discoveries immediately spread all over the country, and even greater miracles are yet to come. Tested by researchers, the front of the sword is covered with a layer of chromium salt compound, which is also the reason why it is stainless for thousands of years. This discovery caused a sensation in the world, because this chromium salt oxidation treatment method is an advanced modern technology. Germany invented and applied for a patent in 1937, and the United States in 1950. As we all know, chromium is a rare metal with a melting point as high as 4000 degrees Celsius, which is very difficult to extract. Modern scientific inventions actually appeared more than 200 years ago BC? Who can imagine that the sword in Qin Shihuang's hand is actually the crystallization of modern science? Layers of mystery, right and wrong, can only become the mystery of the ages.
Seven, the mystery of the ancient tomb "ever-burning lamp" The ancient tomb "ever-burning lamp" was first seen in myths and legends. It is said that the eternal fire is the fire of the heavenly palace, and Prometheus secretly brought it back to the world. Around the world, grave robbers go to ancient tombs to steal jewelry. Ancient tombs are often isolated from the world, and the treasures are still intact after thousands of years. According to common sense, ancient tombs should be invisible all year round, but some ancient tombs have "ever-burning lamps" hanging on their vaults, and the shade is very threatening and creepy. Why can such a magical lamp exist for thousands of years? Why does oxygen still burn? Where does the energy come from? If the oil lamp has been used for thousands of years, how can the fuel be supplied? Obviously, it was not done by manpower; If it is an electric lamp, the liquid in the lamp bowl may be mercury used to conduct electricity. The problem is how to generate electricity. Is there a generator in the corner? To generate electricity once and for all, we must rely on solar energy to generate electricity. All this is just a guess made out of nothing. What is the truth? Need scientific verification. [Transferred from Iron Blood Community/]
8. Who is Luo Shenfu written for? Among the "Three Caos", Cao is known for his literary talent. Besides his seven-step poems, he is also famous for introducing Luo Shenfu for the first time. Who is the goddess of Luoshui in Cao Zhi's ode to Luoshen? Become a mystery that history cannot solve! One guess is that after Zhen, Cao Pi's concubine. As a brother-in-law, he actually fell in love with his sister-in-law As far as brothers are concerned, this is unfair to him; As far as monarchs and subjects are concerned, what is the scandal of their infidelity? Gu Kaizhi's famous poem "Ode to the Goddess of Luo" openly quoted Li Shangyin's poem "The Immortal Empress Died After Sending Her Seats" during the Zhenguan period. For thousands of years, this poem has been criticized by many scholars. Another guess is that Cao Zhi created an image of Luo Shen, beautiful and infatuated, but was suspected and used to fabricate his own story to express his powerlessness. If Zhen Xuan didn't write it, why did Cao Zhi write "Ode to Luoshen"? If it is the way that the monarch and the minister trust each other, how can Luo Shen's true feelings arise from his brother's repeated persecution in politics? Seemingly impossible, everything can only be a historical suspense.
9. Why did Wu Zetian set up a tablet without words? It has been a practice since ancient times, but Wu Zetian is an exception! Why did Wu Zetian set up a tablet without words? Different people have different views, and wise people have different views. One theory is that Wu Zetian, in order to boast of herself, showed that her merits could not be expressed in words; One argument is that Wu Zetian knew that she was smart, and "right and wrong" was left to later generations to comment; There is also a saying that Wu Zetian is in a dilemma. When she thought of being buried with Emperor Gaozong after her death, no matter whether she claimed to be the emperor or the queen, it was difficult to put pen to paper, so she was simply "nameless" and let future generations draw a conclusion. Wu Zetian's "tablet without words" left a mystery for later generations. Not so much writing as not writing, which became an interesting conversation.
10. Where is the treasure of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom? The failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is a sigh, and the disappearance of the great jewels of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is equally regrettable. Tianjing fell, the whole army was wiped out, and a large number of jewels came out of thin air. China and foreign countries spread the wealth of flood rebellion, gold and silver are like the sea, department stores are full, and more property is hidden underground. After Li Xiucheng was captured, Zeng Guofan coerced and repeatedly asked about the whereabouts of gold and silver, which is also the reason why Zhongjun was slow to be executed. Strong and unyielding, the loyal king was also loyal. He never revealed the whereabouts of the jewels. Some people even drained the lake in the back garden of Tianwangfu and dug three feet, but found nothing. It's amazing to hoard jewelry like this, and the treasure hunt has never stopped! What's the whereabouts? Various versions, each holding its own word, are still confused.
