"Records of the Grand Historian: The Annals of Qin Shihuang" records that in April of the first year of the Shishi period, the affairs of Mount Li were completed and the Afang Palace was re-entered.
At this time, the tomb repairers were about 300,000. At the beginning of 209, the main body of the tomb was basically completed, and only a small number of finishing projects were left. In 210 years, after Qin Shihuang's death, Qin II Hu Hai succeeded to the throne and continued to expand the Afang Palace and the straits. The taxes and labor labor were heavier than before, which caused a great uprising of peasants. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's troops next Zhou Wen led their troops to quickly reach the vicinity of Xishui (now near Xinfeng Town, Lintong County), facing the pressure of a large army and threatening Xianyang. The second emperor, who had not been trained by the wind and rain, panicked and asked the ministers for what to do. At this time, the Shaofu Order Zhang Han suggested: The thieves have arrived, and the borders are now in the near county, and there are many disciples in Mount Li, please pardon them and give them troops to attack them.
The second generation immediately catered to Zhang Han and led the army to repair the cemetery to fight back against Zhou Wen's uprising army. The cemetery was finally forced to be suspended. It took nearly 40 years before and after the construction, and ranked first in the history of the construction of the tombs in my country. It was built eight years longer than the Egyptian Khufu pyramid.
Ye Tianchen was quietly pondering, and suddenly found that Princess Tracy was awake. She saw Ye Tianchen sitting in the corner of the wall and walked over. Ye Tianchen greeted her. Princess Tracy said: Tianchen, you go to sleep for a while, I'll guard it.
Ye Tianchen was not sleepy yet, so he shook his head and said: No, you can rest for a while, I'm not sleepy yet
Originally, Ye Tianchen was worried that Princess Tracy would let her continue to rest, but unexpectedly, Princess Tracy sat opposite him and started chatting with Ye Tianchen indifferently
During the chat, Ye Tianchen discovered that Empress Tracy was not a vase. She had a doctorate degree and was definitely considered to be both beautiful and intelligent. Empress Tracy was majoring in history when she was in college and was particularly interested in Chinese history. This time, she came to the Western Regions. She wanted to find the King of Qin to save her mother-in-law Empress Anna, and also wanted to take a look at the precipitated history. The records in the Royal Kraft Book have always made her interested. For this reason, she also conducted detailed research on the Western Regions. After the analysis of Empress Tracy and the records in the Kraft Book, the most likely place where the founding king of the small country encountered Yuan soldiers was Dayue, Loulan, and Jingjue. The most likely place where the cemetery of the King of Qin to discover the King of Qin to see the Bone Mirror was King Jingjue. Regarding this, Ye Tianchen and Emperor Tracy have the same views on this point.
What was most unexpected to Ye Tianchen was that Princess Tracy's grandfather was actually an archaeologist, and she once came to the Western Regions to find the ancient city of Jingjue. According to Princess Tracy, her grandfather's purpose in searching for the ancient city of Jingjue was not for archaeology, but for the lost civilization. Now, if the King of Qin's bone mirror really exists, then its function is indeed many times more advanced than the current civilization. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a lost civilization. When she was very young, Princess Tracy heard her grandfather talk about this, and was also influenced by her grandfather. Emperor Tracy was interested in history. At that time, she was young and didn't know much about what a lost civilization was. Until she married into the royal family, because of her husband's death, she was in a low mood and met the royal family's cowhide books in the library. Only then did she realize that perhaps the lost civilization is the mirror.Zi, the kidnappers originally asked them to hand over the Qin King's bone mirror, but she didn't understand it for a while. Later, she thought about it carefully that the Qin King's bone mirror had been recorded in the cowhide book. Although the later notes called the mirror the divine mirror, it was related to grandpa's lifelong regret, so Princess Tracy still remembered that the cowhide book mentioned the Qin King's bone mirror. However, due to whether the mirror really existed, after receiving the notification from the kidnappers, Princess Tracy had not made a decision for a long time. One was worried about whether the mirror really existed, and the other was due to status. If you came to search rashly, you might fall into the trap of the kidnappers. Until Ye Tianchen arrived and said you were going to the Western Regions, she confirmed her idea and needed to find the Qin King's bone mirror, one was to save her mother-in-law, Queen Anna, and the other was to resolve grandpa's regret.
All speculations have been confirmed. Ye Tianchen couldn't help but feel more affection for Princess Tracy. Princess Tracy's husband died in a car accident. It is said that just one or two days before the two got married. In fact, according to normal procedures, Princess Tracy did not marry the prince. It was just that Queen Anna at the same time, Princess Tracy no longer had family members, so she insisted on letting Princess Tracy become a part of the royal family.
After understanding this, Ye Tianchen already knew that what Princess Tracy knew during this trip was a key point, so he asked: Why must your grandfather have lost civilization in King Jingjue’s cemetery? Also, the ancient city of Jingjue has always been a mystery in the archaeological world. Why can he determine the correct direction? Even the geographical location mentioned in the cowhide book is very vague. It was just a rough description. The princess’ grandfather has also come here, but there is no record. He just said that he went back alone in the end.
After Ye Tianchen asked, he informed the Queen Tracy of the reason why he proposed to come here. In fact, Ye Tianchen proposed to come here mainly for the kidnappers. After all, he was worried about the safety of his mother and the queen. He did not consider it carefully at the time. Now it is difficult to get on the tiger, so he can only take one step at a time. When he learned that Queen Tracy knew the destination of this trip, Ye Tianchen must of course figure it out.
After listening, Princess Tracy said:My grandfather was young and obsessed with ancient culture of the Western Regions. When he was traveling to the United States, he bought a batch of cultural relics, which were all precious cultural relics excavated by European explorers in the Xinjiang desert in the early 19th century. Those European explorers once discovered an ancient city ruin near the Niya Oasis. According to research, the relics and cultural relics were all from the Han Dynasty. According to some clues, it is likely that it is the remains of the most powerful Jingjue Kingdom among the 36 countries in the Western Regions. After years of research, my grandfather inferred that the Niya ruins are just an affiliated city of the Jingjue Kingdom, and the real Jingjue main city shouldTo the north of Niya, the lower reaches of the Zidu River, but my grandfather was just obsessed with Jingjue City and did not know what lost civilization was in Jingjue City. It was not until he met a person who claimed to have been to Jingjue Ancient City that he learned that in the early years, the king of a small European country organized a large-scale archaeological activity to find Jingjue Ancient City. This archaeological activity ended in failure. Grandpa later found the king and asked about some information. He realized that there was a lost civilization in Jingjue Ancient City. So grandpa felt even more about Jingjue Ancient City.
Princess Tracy paused and continued: The king of this small country is the princess' grandfather. I didn't know this at that time. This was what I learned after I married into the royal family, read the cowhide books, grandfather's notes and recalling grandfather's words. After my grandfather talked with the king in detail, he planned to personally find the lost civilization hidden in Jingjue Ancient City in his lifetime, but later due to war and other reasons, he died of depression.
After the Emperor Tracy said that, Ye Tianchen realized that there was such a past story. Now it seems that looking for the King of Qin's bone mirror on this trip is actually to find the remains of Jingjue Ancient City. As long as you find the remains of Jingjue Ancient City, it will be much easier to find the King of Qin's bone mirror on it.
After Princess Tracy finished speaking, she saw Ye Tianchen not saying anything and continued: There are not many records about this once extremely brilliant ancient city. Jingjue Kingdom was the leader of the alliance of small countries in the Western Regions at that time. Those small countries now look just some cities of different sizes formed on some trade routes. A small city also regarded itself as a country. The most powerful of these small countries is Jingjue. After the death of the last queen of Jingjue Kingdom, this city disappeared in the sea of sand. It was impossible to know whether it was destroyed by natural disasters or wars. Just as this country never existed at all. Although there were records in the Krassic Book, there was still no way to determine it. Until the generation of the princess and grandfathers, although it was only the grandfather who came back alone, he left behind very valuable information. He gave these information to my grandfather.
Princess Tracy took out a small bag for Ye Tianchen to show. Ye Tianchen took it and opened it. It was a yellow black and white old photo and an old diary full of English. The picture of the photo was very blurry, and it could be vaguely distinguished that the photographed city was in the desert, with a tower standing in the middle, and the details were almost impossible to see clearly.
These are the diaries and photos written by Grandpa when he went to find the King of Qin to search for the bone mirror. The reason why he did not record it in the cowhide book may be that he did not want future generations to take this risk.
Seeing Ye Tianchen finished reading, Princess Tracy added
After detailed discussion, Ye Tianchen finally understood the whole story. It seemed that this trip was not as confused as before. With these information and the research of Princess Tracy, they were very likely to find the destination. After talking for so long, Ye Tianchen was a little tired. Princess Mary also woke up from her sleep. So Princess Mary and Princess Tracy two women were vigilant. Ye Tianchen rested. After three hours, Ye Tianchen rested, Princess Mary and Princess Tracy two women were replaced.
The night passed like this, and the wind outside gradually became smaller. The so-called sunshine must be after the wind and rain. This is true in the desert. The next day, it was really clear. Seeing this clear weather, the three of them immediately decided to hurry on their way. But after packing up, the satellite phone on Ye Tianchen's body rang. Since in the desert, ordinary mobile phones had no signal at all, the only one was satellite phone. The kidnappers were very considerate. After answering the phone, the kidnappers asked Ye Tianchen and others to wait for them in place. It turned out that they had determined the location of Ye Tianchen and others through the positioning of the satellite phone. It was probably because they knew that they were getting closer and closer to the ancient city, so the kidnappers showed up.
At this time, the tomb repairers were about 300,000. At the beginning of 209, the main body of the tomb was basically completed, and only a small number of finishing projects were left.
