Wu Zixu, a doctor of the State of Wu in the late Spring and Autumn Period, is one of the most famous figures in the history of China. He used to be a historical celebrity. Judging from the cultural history of grave robbery in China, he is also a heavyweight. Not to mention digging someone else's grave, but also venting on the body with a whip is the most vicious grave digger.

Xiang Yu-the best grave robber

Compared with Wu Zixu, Xiang Yu's grave robbery seems more natural and just. Wu Zixu robbed the tomb in order to avenge "family feud", which is selfish; Three hundred years later, Xiang Yu dug up the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang for the sake of "national hatred", which was the wish of the world. Who is Qin Shihuang? The first emperor in the history of China; What is the Qin Mausoleum? China's "First Mausoleum" (see the book "Three Mausoleums Most Worthy of Adventure in the Eyes of Grave Robbers"), only Xiang Yu and Niu!

The most perverted grave robber.

Grave robbers are angry and greedy, but there is a grave robber in China history who is very abnormal, first of all for fun. He is Liu Qu, the king of Guang Chuan in the Western Han Dynasty. Liu Qu, the royal family of the Western Han Dynasty, was originally the capital, and was later called the King of Guang Chuan. It is said that Liu Qu had a bad reputation, was unreliable in doing things, and was good at eating, drinking and having fun.

There are many famous ancient tombs excavated by Liu Qu, such as the son of Wei Wang and the tomb of the canal, the tomb of the king of Jin You, the tomb of Luan Shu and so on. But there are many grave robberies, and Liu Qu is also afraid. "Tai Ping Guang Ji" records that Liu Qu was scared to death when he dug the tomb of Qi Qu, and the people inside were lifelike. Liu Qu quickly told his men to stop, quit and re-seal. According to historical records, the number of ancient tombs stolen by Liu Qu is "incalculable", but it is impossible to verify how many treasures have been obtained.

Cao Cao-the most professional grave robber

Tomb raiding is mostly the behavior of the king, which also illustrates a problem. Large-scale grave robbery in history is mixed with official nature. But there is a clear record of setting up a full-time office and a "burglary office". It should be Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms period at the earliest. According to historical records, he set up a corps commander and a captain in the army to study and carry out grave robbery. Cao Cao is the most professional grave robber in the history of China. The most famous tomb stolen by Cao Cao is the tomb of King Mangdang Mountain, which is the tomb of Liu Wu and Li Xinyu of Han Liang and Wang Xiao. This mausoleum is built on a grand scale, four times as large as the Ming Tombs in Beijing, and is called "the first stone tomb in the world". Liu Wu is the grandson of Liu Bang, his father is Liu Heng, Emperor of China, and his younger brother is Liu Qi, Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty. Liu Wu is in the era of "the rule of culture and scenery", and the country is rich and the people are strong. It is conceivable that Liu Wu is rich in burial.

Dong Zhuo-The Worst Grave Robber

The trend of reburial in the history of China reached its first peak in the Western Han Dynasty. From 0/00 to 200 years in history, more than 80% of tombs were stolen. Accordingly, after the Han Dynasty, a grave robbery climax was bound to form. Historical facts prove that this speculation exists. The first wave of the three grave-robbing climaxes in China's history appeared from the end of the Western Han Dynasty to the Southern and Northern Dynasties. In this historical period, small courtyards alternated as frequently as playing games, so the world was in chaos, hungry people were everywhere, and the wind of folk grave robbery prevailed. You stole from me. Let's steal together. Besides the gravedigger Cao Cao mentioned above, there are Dong Zhuo, Huang Chao and others. The difference is that Dong Zhuo is not as professional as Cao Cao, but Dong Zhuo has many capable people and a large scale. Most of the tombs of the emperors of the Han Dynasty were stolen by him, and like men, they had a reputation of "evil".

Huang Chao-the stupidest grave robber.

It can be seen from many grave robberies in history. Digging graves and robbing tombs mostly happened in troubled times. The first peak of grave robbery in the history of China was in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. At this time of China, on and off, on and off, in troubled times, heroes turned thieves. The emergence of Huang Chao, but also because of troubled times. Although Huang Chao has a good pen and ink skills, compared with Cao Cao, because he has no common sense of grave robbery and is surrounded by farmers with little culture, he is not very good at grave robbery, and many tombs have not been opened, so it is not an exaggeration to call him the most stupid grave robber.

Wen Tao-the most endangered grave robber.

Including Wu Zetian, there were 2 1 emperors in the Tang Dynasty. Among them, the tomb of the Nine Emperors is located in Beishan, north of the Han Mausoleum, numbered "Eighteen Mausoleums in Guanzhong" (Wu Zetian and Li Zhi were buried together in a mausoleum). But 17 was stolen. The culprit is Wen Tao, our envoy in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties. Wen Tao is one of the people who robbed the imperial tomb the most in history, and many precious cultural relics were destroyed by him, so he is the most harmful grave robber.

Liu Yu-the most unjust grave robber

At present, the archaeological community judges that grave robbers have visited the existing imperial tombs in China. The 18th Mausoleum in Tang Dynasty was plundered by Wen Tao, and the 8th Mausoleum in Gongyi in Northern Song Dynasty was plundered and destroyed by Liu Yu. The Imperial Tomb of the Northern Song Dynasty is located in gongyi city, Henan Province, where seven emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty and Zhao, the father of Mao, are buried. It is known as the "Seven Emperors and Eight Mausoleums". Compared with the Han and Tang Tombs, the Northern Song Tombs are generally simple. The Han and Tang emperors began to build caves before their death, while the Song emperors did not build their first achievements before their death. Liu Yu was originally a courtier in the Northern Song Dynasty, but later turned to the Northern Jin regime. Surrender and mutiny is unjust, and cooperation in grave robbery is even more unjust.

The most shameless grave robber Jia

The tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty were stolen and dug, and the tombs of the Southern Song Dynasty were not spared. The tomb of the Southern Song Dynasty was stolen at the beginning of Yuan Dynasty, which was also the most tragic incident in which the tomb of Emperor China was stolen. The imperial tomb in the Southern Song Dynasty was actually "saving the palace". That is to collect Zigong. A temporary burial place. Considering that we will move back to the Zuling area in Gongyi, Henan Province in the future, the coffin is buried shallow and easy to be stolen. The tomb of the Southern Song Dynasty was stolen by Yang Tizhen Jia, a monk from the Western Regions. As a monk, he should have practiced hard, but he ignored Buddhism, did nothing and did all kinds of bad things. He is the double scum of monks and grave robbers.

Chen Feng-the most absurd grave robber.

It seems incredible that a grave robber stole from his master and came up with the idea of building a tomb for the ancestors of the current emperor, but such an absurd thing happened during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. The executioner was a eunuch named Chen Feng. Unlike Liu Yu and Yang Tiao's grave-robbing, which contains political elements, Chen Feng's grave-robbing is purely for treasure hunting, which is really confusing.
