Chapter 1655
Wenwen's father looked puzzled and asked me: "Xiao Xiang, is this thing important?"
After coming back to my senses, I hurriedly said: "Uncle, this thing is not simple anyway. There are some things I haven't figured out yet. Let's go eat first."
Back at the dinner table, I was gnawing on the pig's trotters on the surface, but in fact my mind was already far away.
A cigarette after a meal is better than a living god.
I leaned on the sofa in the living room and asked Wenwen: "Do you have a computer at home?"
"Yes, it's in my brother's room. Do you want to use it?"
I nodded.
I went to his brother's room. After turning on the computer, I fiddled with it for a while. Then I got up and gave up my seat. I asked Wenwen for help and said, "I'm not very good at it. Please help me search for something."
"What are you searching for?"
"Just search for Tiansheng Law Order."
Wenwen quickly searched for it, but there were only photocopies of the pictures, and there was no way to enlarge the pictures.
I sat down and stared at the screen seriously.
"No way, brother Xiang? The characters are so small, you can see them clearly?"
I said yes, go and get me a glass of water, I want to take my time and watch.
Tiansheng Lingling is the Xixia code. The original text is in Xixia. It was dug out in Heishui City and is now in the Ural Museum. I read the vernacular version published by Science Press in 1994.
After reading one page, click the mouse to turn the page.
I kept scrolling until after eleven o'clock, and I finally found what I wanted.
Baldness order!
It was promulgated by the founding emperor Yuan Hao and was included in the criminal code of Tiansheng Ling.
"Xia old customs", these three words mean to restore the old habits of party people, that is, baldness.
At that time, the Han people tied their hair, the Xiongnu wholesaled it, the Mongolian people had their hair braided, and the Donghu people had bald hair. This Donghu people were the predecessors of the Dangxiang people!
Yuan Hao was ambitious and wanted to restore his clan and become an emperor through the ages. This can be seen from his invention of Xixia script. The words on the human head jar describe the baldness order, "Anyone who does not shave his hair for three days will be punished." Kill without mercy."
But after careful study, I discovered another problem.
The time written on the human head jar is "the fourth year of Yanzuo's reign of heaven's gift of rituals", which is 1041 AD.
Yuan Hao had already founded the country at this time, but according to the Tiansheng Law Order, the Bald Order occurred in 1032 AD, with a gap of nine years.
So what is this jar for?
In order to understand it, we must characterize it, whether it is commemorative or practical!
I thought about it and thought it was both, and an idea popped into my head.
From the first year of Tianshu Lifa to the fifth year of Tianshu, the Song army was defeated by Xixia in recent years. The Song army in the northwest was almost completely damaged. At the same time, the Liao Kingdom was also beaten into dogs by Xixia. As a result, Yuan Hao's domestic prestige reached its peak for a while.
Throughout history, when an emperor has won a great victory, what is the one thing he must do?
Sacrifice to heaven and ancestors!
Before the baldness order was issued, Yuan Hao set an example and was the first to shave his head and restore the Donghu hairstyle.
This strand of hair is of great significance. Who dares to throw away the emperor's hair? It may have been preserved, and later after a great victory, such a jar was burned during ancestor worship to hold Yuan Hao's hair, and the human head jar was placed on the tribute table in the Xixia Ancestral Temple.
Another point is to try to restore Yuan Hao's psychology at that time from the fragments of surviving documents.
Sitting in front of the computer, closing my eyes, I imagined a scene.
The scene is in a luxurious building. A young man and an elder are talking. The young man is Yuan Hao, and the elder is his father Li Deming.
Li Deming was seriously ill. He lay in bed and sighed: "Son, after I die, you must not rely on strength to establish a country. Although we have strong soldiers and horses, the Song Dynasty will be strong like a behemoth. If you don't listen to my advice and hastily establish a country, I'm afraid that our party will not be able to build a country." The entire clan will face catastrophe!"
Yuan Hao said coldly: "Father, our party, Xiang Erlang, is not afraid of anyone in the world. You don't need to say anything, I am determined to found the country."
Li Deming stared at Yuan Hao for a long time, then kicked his legs and returned to the west.
Although this is a scenario I imagined in my head, it most likely happened.
