At the junction of Changge and Xinzheng, there is a Lushan Mountain with a tomb on it.

This is one of the earliest existing celebrity tombs in Xuchang. As a typical example of frugal burial, it has far-reaching influence in cultural history.

"If you don't know life, can you know death?"

Zichan Tomb gives a satisfactory answer in a concise form. ?

Du Yu will never forget the frugal burial of Lushan Mountain.

Du Yu was a famous politician and strategist in Wei and Jin Dynasties, and played a key role in the war against Wu. During the period of guarding Xiangyang, the people called him "Du Fu" and sang: "There is no way for future generations to disobey Du Weng, but they are brave for their wisdom."

Such a clever and brave man confessed his affairs like this when he was dying:

I once saw a grave in Lushan Mountain. It is said that Dr. Zheng was buried as a sacrifice to Zhong or.

The top of the mountain is unobstructed, and the tomb faces Xinzheng County in the northeast, which means that the roots are not forgotten; Only the back of the tomb was blocked, and there was no fill in front to show that there was no treasure; It is unwise to build a grave with pebbles instead of stones on the mountain.

A gentleman shows his feelings with this tomb, but a villain is not good, so he can go through a thousand years without loss.

I want to take Dr. Fazheng to end my life in a frugal way.

People in ancient times were not buried together. The way they understand life and death. Life is learned, and death is nothing. Medieval saints changed to be buried together, probably because they thought that there were no rules for separate burial, and the purpose was to educate the world. How do we know what happens after death before we know what happens in life? Since then, people have been buried together or separated, and everyone has acted according to his own wishes.

When I was Taro, I passed Xingshan (now Changge) in Mi County on business. There is a grave on the hill. I asked the farmer if this was the tomb of Dr. Zheng's memorial bell or the tomb of Zi chan, so I led my entourage to pay homage.

The tomb was built on the top of the mountain, and there were no obstacles in all directions. The mountains run north and south, facing the northeast, meaning that they will not forget their old country. The tunnel is only blocked at the back, but the front is open and unfilled, telling people that there is no treasure inside and there is no need to bury it deliberately. There are many beautiful stones on the mountain instead of using them. Natural pebbles that collect water are used to build graves. Stones are useless if they are not skilled.

The gentleman praised this burial method as frugal, and the villain did not benefit from it, so it was intact after thousands of years.

Du Yu added:

I entered North Korea last spring. Due to the death of my wife, I built a cemetery at the southern foot of Luoyang East shouyangshan according to the old burial system. There is a hill in the obtained area, although it is not as good as Xingshan. But it looks at the Second Mausoleum in the east, Quegong in the west, Ilo in the south and Uncle Yi in the north. It is broad-minded and comfortable. So plant trees to clear the way and prepare to build a tomb. At that time, the tomb will be built with Luoshui pebble, and the tunnel will open to the south. I want to follow Dr. Zheng's example to save the contract and the grave.

Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, is a descendant of Du Yu, who once built a house and lived under Du Yu's tomb. When he wrote an article to worship his ancestors, he couldn't help mentioning Lushan Mountain.

Extreme in the sky, god arrival.

In barren land, frugality is Kong Zhao.

Take the image of Lushan Mountain as an example. The whole model is dedicated to Zhong.

The commandment of hiding more, the preface above.

The boy built a room in the sun.

Dare not forget one's roots, dare not violate one's benevolence.

Li Daoyuan was an official in Changge, and wrote the tomb of Zichan into the Water Mirror Notes.

Du Yu left a question: Is it a sacrifice or a child's property buried on Lushan Mountain?

Li Daoyuan put it another way in Notes on Water Classics: the tombs of two people are on it. It is Zi Chan's tomb that implements frugal burial.

"There are sacrifices in the mountains and tombs in the west. Leishi is a square tomb with a temple in the east and Cheng Zheng in the northeast. Du Yuankai said,' Don't forget your roots'. There is a dead tree in the International Temple, and its dust root is on the old tree. There are many young cypresses in the forest, and the columns are green and beautiful. It is commendable to look at it. "

Guo Shoujing, a scientist in the Yuan Dynasty, asked in the Notes on Water Classics: Du Yu personally saw that there was only one tomb on the mountain, but Li Daoyuan said that there were two tombs. Is it attached to it, or is the rumor untrue?

Based on Li Daoyuan's academic spirit and life experience, his records should be credible.

Li Daoyuan used to be the county magistrate of Yingchuan (now the old city of changge city), and made a detailed investigation of the local scenery, and even had a direct life experience. For example, Changshe was named after the "Big Bang of Social Trees", and Li Daoyuan had a unique experience:

"Next year I will build a guest house in Yingchuan, on the west side of Cheng Nan. A big tree root was dug during the construction, which was too huge. Some people suspect that it is the root left by the legendary social cypress. " ?

Zi chan's grave was filled with incense, and Wu Zetian sent people to sacrifice.

At present, there is only one tomb on the top of the mountain, named Zichan Tomb, which is listed as two-level cultural relics protection units in Zhengzhou and Xuchang.

My son is a famous overseas Chinese, whose surname is Gong, so he is also called Ji Qiao, Gong and Guo Qiao.

He is an aristocrat of Zheng State and has served as Minister of State for a long time.

"Historical Records" said: Zi chan has been in power for one year, and the prodigal son is no longer frivolous and playful, the old man does not have to carry the burden with his hands, and his children do not have to farm; Two years later, the market is fair and high prices are not reserved; In the past three years, people have not closed their doors at night, and the road has not been answered; After four years, farmers don't have to bring farm tools home after work; After five years, men don't have to perform military service, and the funeral instruments meet the standards and don't need guidance.

Zi chan ruled Zheng for 26 years and died. Ding Zhuang burst into tears. The old man sobbed like a child: "Zi Chan is dead. What can ordinary people do? "

When Confucius heard the news of Zi Chan's death, he also shed tears and praised him for politically inheriting and carrying forward the legacy of the ancients' kindness, "the legacy of the ancient lover."

It is said that after giving birth, there is no money at home. Men in the state of Zheng took out gold and jade, and women donated jewelry. But the son of Zichan refused to accept it, laid the foundation stone himself and buried his father at the top of the mountain.

The donated gold and jade were finally discarded in the river where the property was divided into fiefs, that is, the Jinshui River in Zhengzhou.

The tomb of Yin Sheng is located in the boundary of Xuzhou, and offering sacrifices to Zi Sheng is listed as an official ceremony in ancient Xuzhou. During the period of Wu Zetian, people were specially sent to sacrifice.

In the early Qing Dynasty, He Ding, the magistrate of Changge County, wrote a poem:

The ancient temple of sages leans on the high platform, where the mountains are empty and green.

Painting walls in the Spring and Autumn Period, walking with elders, and hiding spiritual flags day and night.

The Government became an impassioned song of Philip Burkart, which made the criminal law open.

After years of worshipping many mothers, Tian Chou still likes not to be dirty.

? The appearance of cultural relics in the tomb proves that what Du Yu said is true.

A few years ago, someone quarried in Lushan Mountain, which once endangered the safety of the tomb.

20 1 1 Media reports: "Zichan Tomb is located at the junction of Xinzheng, Changge and Yuzhou. In the past, there were mountain roads leading to the tomb of Zichan in the three places. Now the road from Xinzheng to the mountain has been bombed by the quarry. "

During this period, the tomb of Zichan was unfortunately stolen.

On February 20 10, a group of grave robbers fled to the tomb of the son of Langshan, stole a batch of bronze arrowheads, a bronze crossbow machine, a sapphire jade, a silver-plated butterfly pendant and a ceramic tire glass bead, and sold them for 5,000 yuan.

After solving the case, the grave robbers confessed that more than a dozen people were busy for three days.

The legend that lasted for more than 2,000 years was finally broken-the tomb of Zichan, which was "saving itself", failed to escape the eyes of grave robbers.

It can be comforted that with the efforts of all walks of life, the quarry that endangered the ancient tomb finally stopped working. After the theft, the police also reported the case in time.

The items stolen from the tomb were later classified as third-class cultural relics.

Zichan Tomb represents the height of Lushan culture and confirms the long history of frugal culture in China.

As a son of a country, this funerary object is really a little thin.
