Why can the specifications of the tomb of the Second Princess be much higher than that of the tomb of the captaincy?
Mainly because her husband doted on the second princess Zhao, after Zhao Fei's death, he built a mausoleum with specifications higher than that of the captaincy. The tomb of King Lu was discovered in Xinxiang City, Henan Province. It is also the best-preserved tomb of the Ming Dynasty with the largest tomb area. Lu Wang Zhu Yichang, the tomb owner, is the ninth generation grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang and the only younger brother of Emperor Wanli. Not far from this mausoleum, there is a tomb bigger than it, and that is the tomb of the Second Princess Zhao. After excavation, archaeologists found that there was a dark tunnel connecting two tombs in the underground palace, that is to say, in fact, the two tombs were together, or simply the same tomb.

Moreover, when the experts were excavating the ancient tomb, they found a very amazing phenomenon. As the second princess, Zhao Shi's tomb is actually more than 40,000 square meters, much larger than the tomb of King Lu. In addition to the area, the building material specifications and design statues of the mausoleum are beyond the reach of King Lu's tomb. You know, she is just a woman and a second princess. At that time, in the social atmosphere where men were superior to women, it was absolutely supercilious. So many people are puzzled why the tomb of the princess is bigger than that of the captaincy.

Later, we can know that the tomb of King Lu was built in 16 15 and the tomb of Princess Zhao was built in 1625. Zhao Fei's tomb was built before King Lu, which means that King Lu acquiesced in and even personally designed the tomb. The reason is that Wang Lu and Zhao Fei have deep feelings. Even after Zhao Fei's death, they didn't want her to be wronged, so they invaded and built a super-sized mausoleum for her.

According to historical records, after she went to Henan to be a vassal, her mother gave Ryan, a palace maid, and accompanied her back to Henan. Zhao Shi, who served the Empress Dowager for many years, was very clever and dexterous. He helped King Lu to do a lot of things for the benefit of the people in Henan, and also helped him solve many problems. As a result, King Lu became more and more attached to her, and regarded her as his second princess. Even after his death, he secretly built an over-standard mausoleum for her. This is the passage connecting two tombs from the underground palace. You can see it.
