What is the truly exquisite ancient city in history? Does the queen really have three eyes?
Jingjue Ancient Country is now called "Niya Ancient City", which is located in Minfeng County, Xinjiang, in the center of Taklimakan Desert.

Netizens are very interested in ancient countries, partly because of a tomb-robbing novel, Ghost Blowing Lights. I really haven't read this novel, and I don't know if The Queen of the Country is described as an alien with three eyes.

In fact, there are very few records about ancient countries in the history books, which can only be extracted bit by bit for reference.

In the Han Dynasty, there were records about the country of supreme goodness in the history books, which were described in Hanshu Biography of the Western Regions:

According to the records in Hanshu, the Manchu State in the Western Han Dynasty was actually a very small city-state, with a total population of only 480 households, more than 3,360 nationals and 500 troops. This scale is smaller than many of our villages now. There are more than 3600 people in our village now.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were records about Guo Jingguo, as described in the New Tang Book:

This record is much simpler than that of the Han Dynasty.

Master Xuanzang, a monk in the Tang Dynasty, crossed this desert when he was studying in the Western Regions. The master mentioned this in his "The Western Regions of Datang":

That is to say, when Master Xuanzang's footsteps passed by here, this ancient country, which had been laughing and laughing, was lost in the long river of history, leaving only a wasteland.

So, how did the perfect country fall? There are several sayings:

1. Shanshan annexation

Shanshan is actually Loulan, and Wang Changling has a poem:

Why do you want to "break"

Where is Loulan? It can be seen that this Loulan is very aggressive, and it is entirely possible if it is annexed.

2. Changes in the Silk Road

Another view is that the change of the Silk Road led to the decline of the country.

Because in the Han dynasty, the country of Yan Hong was the only place on the Silk Road at that time. Many business travelers stay here to get supplies, which promotes the prosperity here.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Silk Road moved northward and passed through Gao Changguo (that is, Turpan), which was safer, and business travelers no longer passed through the basin. The country was isolated from the world, and eventually the population moved out and withered, and the country went to extinction.

3. Soapy's extinction

This view holds that there is a nomadic people-Supi people living on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau beyond the snow-capped mountains. They often cross the snow-capped mountains, cross the desert and plunder the country, leading to the collapse of the country. This Su Pi family is recorded in the New Tang Book:

This statement is also very reasonable, because not only is it recorded in the history books of the Tang Dynasty, but also some Lu bamboo slips and bamboo slips have been unearthed in the ruins of the ancient city of Niya today. According to bamboo slips, a Supi often harassed Guo Jing. This Supi is probably the kingdom of Supi.

This Supi country is probably the legendary girl country. Ruled by the queen, it is described in Master Xuanzang's Da Tang Xi Yu Ji:

Sui Shu also recorded the supremacy of women's rights in this country:

It is really surprising that these women are so cruel and coquettish.

Under the constant molestation and infringement of the daughter country, the essence disappeared.

In other words, there is no exquisite queen in history, but there must be a queen Supi.

Let's talk about some unearthed cultural relics.

The best thing is this: five stars out of Donghua brocade?

"Five Stars Going Out of the East Will Benefit China" as recorded in Historical Records of Tiangong;

When the five stars appear in the east, it means that the five planets of gold, wood, water, fire and earth appear in the eastern night sky at the same time. This is called "five-star alignment", which is a sign of good luck.

"Zhao Han Guo Chongchuan" recorded a command sent by Emperor Gaozu Xuan Di to Zhao Chongguo:

Another piece of brocade has the words "please Nanqiang". Together, the two kinds of tapestries are "five stars coming out of the East will benefit China and win the southern Qiang". Xuan Di, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, gave the general Zhao Chongguo the order of a quick victory according to the astronomical phenomena of "five-star conjuration".

Today, the national flag of our great motherland is a five-star red flag. "Oriental five-star benefits China" is indeed a blessing, and we can't help sighing that the prosperous motherland can still receive that distant blessing two thousand years ago.

Unearthed wooden door, beautifully carved:

Let's take a look at the following quilt, "Long live the princes and their descendants":

"The world is extremely rich and suitable for two parents to pass on to their offspring";

This may be a gift from the Central Plains to the country.

Some clothes were unearthed in a couple's grave. At the top is a robe with a wide robe and narrow sleeves.

It seems that at that time, the communication between Wan Yan Zonghan and the Central Plains was still very frequent. The Han people who are adjacent to them are so good at recording, leaving the footprints of this beautiful small country in history and writing them in books to show their past charm to future generations.

The Niya River still flows quietly, and that ancient country, which was lost in the smoke of history, has become a beautiful legend. ...
