Wei and Jin Tombs: Wang Bin, male, Wang, female.
In our cognition, it is no problem for husband and wife to be buried together, but it is obviously impolite for father and daughter to be buried together. Because women were not allowed to stay, especially in the feudal society at that time, women got married early and rarely stayed at home. Of course, they followed their husbands into their graves after their deaths. But in this tomb in Nanjing, the two tomb owners are indeed father and daughter, because there is also a tombstone unearthed, which records their identity and relationship. The man's name is Wang Bin and the woman's name is Wang. This tomb belongs to Wei and Jin Dynasties. Judging from the tomb, they are definitely noble families, indeed.
The so-called Wang Xieyan was definitely a famous family in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, family status was even more important. Even the system of selecting officials was based on the nine standards, which provided a very convenient way for those rich people to enter official positions. The four families in Wei and Jin Dynasties were Wang, Xie, Yuan and Xiao, and basically all the courtiers came from these families. The owner of this tomb, Wang Bin, is from the Wang family. At the age of 20, he was a big official of the court, with a strong character in Wei and Jin Dynasties.
Wei and Jin Dynasties: Wang Bin
Wei and Jin demeanor refers to the obvious popularization of literature, which is not only reflected in literary works, but also in life. What is shown is depravity, eclecticism and great pursuit of individuality. Wang Bin has this shadow more or less. Sima Ye, the emperor of Jin Dynasty, once asked Wang Bin to be a local official, but he directly refused. The reason for his refusal is even more absurd, just because he doesn't like distance. Later, he was asked to be a satrap, but he didn't buy it. Helpless, let him become Shanhaiguan.
And Mr. Wang's family has produced a lot of talents. Wang Xizhi, a book sage, is one of them. Wang Xizhi should be called Uncle Wang Bin by rights, and another one created Wang Dun rebellion, and this Wang Dun is Mr. Wang's cousin. In 322 AD, his cousin rebelled, and with the help of his family, he broke the customs and beheaded the generals, reaching the Imperial City. The Emperor of Jin Dynasty could only send Wang Bin as a lobbyist. However, Wang Bin hated his cousin very much, because one of his friends was killed by him, but as a courtier, he still crustily skin of head.
Although I was in the enemy camp, I didn't have any fear after seeing my cousin Wang Dun, and I didn't mean to be mainly. Instead, he made the gesture and even mentioned his dead friend. Wang Dun is not happy, of course. He just said that his friends are closer than our brothers. At this time, Mr. Wang became more energetic, swearing and accusing Wang Dun of treason. The envoys around him quickly knelt down to beg for mercy, but Mr. Wang said that he would not bow down when he saw the emperor. What is the reason why he bowed his head when he saw you? Finally, Wang Dun relented and did not move his heart.
Mysterious pills in the tomb reveal Wang Bin's hobbies before his death.
A large number of mysterious pills were found in their coffins, and experts immediately took them for testing, thus finding that their internal components were very similar to a drug called Wushi Powder. As we all know, in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, apart from the character of Wei and Jin Dynasties, it was an alchemist's pharmacy. Some people, like Qin Shihuang, pursue immortality, so they often stay in their rooms to study alchemy drugs, and some people even get poisoned because of improper operation. Wang Bin is no exception. He put it simply, just to prolong his life. This kind of Wushi powder is vivid, but it is very hot and dry, so you often undress after taking it, and although you do have a temporary feeling of excitement after taking this medicine, it will be addictive and harmful to your body for a long time, similar to drugs.
Wang Bin's mysterious pill must have been painstakingly developed by himself, which is different from the traditional Wushi powder. This reveals why his daughter was buried with him. Because it is recorded that Wang was not married, this pill was found in her coffin, which can be inferred to be related to his father. Her father must have made her eat a lot of this stuff, which made her addicted, because the consequences after eating it were very bad and had a great impact on her reputation. I'm afraid not many people are willing to marry such a woman. So she and her father pursued the illusory eternal life together. No wonder they put so many such things in the coffin. So experts say: be a father in vain.
abstract
It is really hard to understand and inappropriate to look at the ancients from the present perspective. Wang Bin may seem to be the chief culprit leading to his daughter's lifelong unmarried, but perhaps at that time he took Wu XIII as a good thing and shared it with his dearest daughter. But it is much better for my daughter to pursue this illusory thing than to find a husband's family for her.
