Ginger Ziya is a Chinese history of a omniscient, no one knows the godman, the most famous one about ginger Ziya allusion is: ginger fishing - willing to hook, because ginger Ziya fishing with a straight hook, and there is no bait, in addition to the ginger Ziya fishing is not really want to fish, but would like to take this opportunity to know the king of the Zhou Dynasty Jichang, we must know that at this time of ginger Ziya has been 80 years old, still nothing, and want to know through fishing to know the chief of the Zhou tribe Jichang, hope that they have something to develop! He was 80 years old at this time, and had nothing to do, so Jiang Ziya wanted to know Ji Chang, the leader of the Zhou tribe, through fishing and hoped that he would have some development.

Sure enough, this opportunity came, Jiang Ziya met Jichang, and after this to assist the Zhou Wen Wang and Zhou Wu Wang two generations of leaders, successfully helped the Zhou family to defeat the Shang family, the establishment of a brand-new Zhou Dynasty, Jiang Ziya was also appointed as a vassal of the State of Qi, Jiang Ziya is the later Spring and Autumn period of the ancestor of the State of Qi, it is said that the ginger Ziya lived 140 years old, this age is really unimaginable, it is said that the ancient period of time, the people live long! It is said that people in the ancient times lived a long time, for example, the Yellow Emperor lived 119 years old, and Ji Chang, the king of Zhou Wen, lived 97 years old.

Jiang Ziya

Jiang Ziya was known as the originator of the military school and the master of the hundred schools of thought in Chinese history because of his outstanding military talent, unique strategic ability and overall synthesis. Jiang Ziya lived until the sixth year of King Kang of the Zhou Dynasty, and in his life he assisted four monarchs, namely King Wen of the Zhou, King Wu of the Zhou, King Cheng of the Zhou, and King Kang of the Zhou, and he finally passed away in the capital city of Haojing of the Western Zhou Dynasty, which is near the present-day Xi'an city. After Jiang Ziya's death, there are 4 sayings about the location of his grave:

1, Fengjing Tai Cemetery

This saying comes from the book "Rites? Sandalwood bow" this book records, this book is the Western Han ritualist Dai Sheng compiled by a pre-Qin period of rituals of the book, written in the Han Dynasty, the book records the words:

Jiang Taigong fishing

Taigong was sealed in the Yingqiu, than the five generations, are anti-burial in the Zhou.

It means that Jiang Taigong's fiefdom was in Yingqiu, an ancient place name in the northeast of Linzi District, Zibo City, Shandong Province, today, but Jiang Taigong himself, as well as five generations of his descendants, did not take office in the fiefdom, but was buried in the Zhou Dynasty cemetery. Where is the Zhou Dynasty cemetery? At the time of the Western Zhou capital city of Fengjing, but here only said buried in Fengjing, Fengjing so big, in the end where is it? It is not detailed.

2, Xianyang Cemetery

According to the Qing Dynasty's official geography general record, "Qing Dynasty Yatou Zhi Xi'an Prefecture Ancient Monuments," it is said that Jiang Ziya's grave is in the northeast of Xianyang County. However, this statement should not be too accurate, the Qing Dynasty is 2,700 years away from the period of Jiang Ziya's life, equivalent to the Spring and Autumn period we are now looking at, after all, too long, just a record, there is no accurate evidence.

Zhou Wen Wang Mausoleum

There is another by the Ming Dynasty Jiajing years Shaanxi governor Zhao Tingrui, as well as the relevant scholars to write a local history, but also about the cemetery of Jiang Ziya's records, is recorded:

"Shaanxi Tongzhi": the north of Xianyang, Biyuan on top of the tomb of King Wen of the Zhou Dynasty, king of the Wu dynasty, and the Zhou Duke, the tomb of the Duke of Zhou is also in the.

This book says that Jiang Ziya's tomb is in the north of Xianyang County, in a place called Bi Yuan, where the tombs of King Wen and King Wu of Zhou as well as the Duke of Zhou are located, but according to a handwritten book by Bi Yuan, the governor of Shaanxi in the Qing Dynasty? But according to the handwritten inscription by Bi Yuan, the governor of Shaanxi in the Qing Dynasty, the tomb of King Wen of Zhou? Stone Tablet this thing, Zhou Wenwang Tomb should be in Xianyang City, 5 kilometers north of Zhouling Township Cuijia Village, Bi Yuan is not Zhouling Township Cuijia Village, or there is still doubt, and then so far in the local area has not been found in the mausoleum of Jiang Ziya, and no excavated related cultural relics.

Tomb of the King of Zhou

3, Haojing cemetery

This statement comes from the Jin Dynasty period of a Taoist book, "Hold Parker" records, the book said: Jiang Gong sealed in Qi, died more than 100 years old, buried in Haojing, accompanied by the King's tomb.

Here it is said that Jiang Ziya's grave is next to the tomb of King Wen of Zhou in Haojing, Haojing and Fengjing were the capitals of the Western Zhou in the early years of the Zhou Dynasty, and the two places are not far from each other, Haojing is in the northwestern part of Chang'an District of the present-day city of Xi'an, while Fengjing is west of Feng River in southwestern Chang'an of Shaanxi Province, both of them used to serve as the capitals of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and although there are records of it, they are similarly without any specific addresses.

4, Henan Weihui Jiang Taigong Tomb

According to the local history "Weihui City Zhi cultural relics," the book records, in today's Henan Province, Weihui City, west of the city of Taigong Town, Lv Village, on the Huangtugang there is a graveyard, there is also a monument in front of the tomb, which is engraved with the words ? Zhou Jiang Taigong grave burial place? This stone monument for the Qing Dynasty during the Kangxi Wei Hui governor set up, the same Qing Dynasty people set up a stone monument, the time is relatively long, and not quite clear.

Weihui Jiang Ziya monument

Weihui City, Henan Province, although Jiang Ziya is a person, but the possibility of its burial in Weihui City, one is because of Jiang Ziya fiefdom, that is, during the Spring and Autumn period of the State of Qi, is now near Zibo in Shandong Province, if the Jiang Ziya in the fiefdom of the inauguration, the general situation will be in the fiefdom of the funeral, it is impossible to die, but also thousands of kilometers back to his hometown to be buried, not realistic.

Another reason is that if Jiang Ziya was not buried in the fiefdom, he would have been buried near the capital city of the Western Zhou Dynasty, along with King Wen and King Wu of the Zhou Dynasty, after all, Jiang Ziya's influence on the Zhou Dynasty is quite large, and is the founding minister, and at the same time there are a lot of books that record that Jiang Ziya is buried in the Western Zhou Dynasty's Fenghuangjing and Haojing.

In fact, the Zhou Dynasty's burial system is not sealed and not trees, meaning that neither sealed mounds of soil, nor planted trees as a sign, this method of burial you can never find the exact location of the graveyard, because the graveyard looks like ordinary flat land is no difference, there is no sign, if this is the case, then the graveyard of the Jiang Ziya is impossible to find, after all, the place is too big, even if you know the Even if it is known that Jiang Ziya was buried in the Fengjing and Haojing area, which is near Xi'an in today's Shaanxi Province, it is still a very large area, and it is impossible to find Jiang Ziya's grave without accurate information.

Ginger Ziya Clothes Mound

But according to the existing information, Jiang Ziya's most likely graveyard is in the Fengjing and Haojing area, because this is also the area most documented in the books, and at the same time, the Western Zhou division of the feudalism does have a not return to the feudalism inauguration, and it is possible that Jiang Ziya did not return to the fiefdom until five generations of descendants after the fiefdom was moved to the fiefdom, which is the state of Jiang Qi in Spring and Autumn Period, which was later replaced by the state of Tian Qi.

Why did no one come to steal Jiang Ziya's tomb?

It's simple, because no one knows where Jiang Ziya's tomb is, plus it's been too long, and the early Zhou Dynasty practiced the tradition of not treeing and not sealing, so there's no way Jiang Ziya's tomb could have been discovered, and no one could have robbed it without knowing where it was.
