Li Cang made Hou Li Cang the Prime Minister of Changsha. The Changsha country he served was the Wu Changsha country in the early Han Dynasty.
According to historical records, Xin Zhui was the daughter of Hou Xinyi in Linxiang, Changsha, and later married Hou Licang, the prime minister of Changsha.
According to historical records, it is reasonable to speculate that Li Cang, a Hubei native, took his wife Xin Zhui and his son Li, who just turned one year old, to work in Changsha. Soon, Ying Bu, the king of Huainan, a neighboring country, rebelled. Li Cang persuaded the second generation Changsha King Chen Wu to frame and kill Chen Wu's brother-in-law Ying Bu. Janice, son of Changsha King, and Li Cang, Prime Minister of Changsha, were both blocked. Li Cang became the first generation Hou. Li Cang died in the third year of high school (BC 185). At this time, his wife Xin Zhui was less than 30 years old.
Li Cang's son Li became the second generation Hou. According to Mr. Fu Juyou's judgment, Li died in 12 (BC 168). He was only about 30 when he died.
Three years later, Xin Zhui, who was in his fifties, died in 15 (BC 165). At that time, Xin Zhui lived in Changsha for more than 30 years.
Historical background The tombs of Hou Licang, the prime minister of Changsha, and his family in the early Western Han Dynasty. Changsha is the seat of Linxiang County, the capital of Changsha in Han Dynasty. This cemetery was misinformed as the cemetery of Ma Yin, the king of Chu during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, so it was called Mawangdui. She was buried as the mother of Changsha and the "twin daughter" of Tang. The Hunan Provincial Museum and the Institute of Archaeology of China Academy of Sciences excavated tomb 1 in 1972; At the beginning of 1973 to 1974, tombs No.2 and No.3 were excavated. 1973, published in Mawangdui No.1 Han Tomb in Changsha. According to Historical Records and Hanshu, Changsha Cang was sealed in the second year of Emperor Huidi of Han Dynasty (BC 193). The three seals of "Prime Minister of Changsha", "Hou" and "Li Cang" were found in Tomb No.2, indicating that the owner of the tomb was the first generation of Hou Licang himself. 1 A 50-year-old female corpse was found in the tomb, and the bone print of "Princess Xin Zhui" was found in the tomb. The owner of the tomb should be Li Cang's wife. The body of the owner of Tomb No.3 belongs to a man in his thirties, which may be the tomb of Li Cang's son. A wooden slip unearthed from Tomb No.3 has the words "December 12th, New Year's Eve", indicating that the tomb was in the 12th year of Emperor Wen (BC 168). 1 Tomb broke the enclosure of Tomb No.2 and Tomb No.3, which should be later. The bamboo slips "Ce Ce" recorded the funerary objects of Tomb 1 and Tomb 3 in detail, which is the most complete two batches of similar bamboo slips discovered so far. Unearthed from Tomb 3 12
The newly-restored statue 4 10 and the tomb No.3 unearthed 4 10 all recorded the names, quantities and subtotals of various funerary objects. 1 Tomb Bamboo Slips list the objects in the approximate order: Jiuding, Ding Qi, Sanding and Earrings made of lacquer wood, all kinds of soups put in bamboo shed, meat food (including eggs and fish) put in bamboo shed, sauce and wine put in Tokisho, grain put in cloth bags, lacquer wood furniture, toiletries, silk clothes and musical instruments. Although the objects in the bamboo slips are different from those in the tomb, there are still many similarities, so the names of some objects can be determined according to the bamboo slips. The bamboo slips of Tomb No.3 have the same contents as those of Tomb No.3 1, and there are attendants such as riders, musicians and dancers, children's servants, including ritual vessels, weapons, musical instruments, etc., which can be compared with the unearthed wooden figurines and the silk paintings on both walls of the tomb. A large number of silk books and two volumes of medical slips were found in Mawangdui Han Tomb, both from the rectangular lacquer box in the east box of Tomb No.3. Most of the silk books were written on a whole piece of silk book with a width of 48 cm and folded into rectangles. A few of them were written on half a piece of 24 cm wide silk and rolled up with wooden strips. When they were excavated, they were seriously damaged. After sorting, I know that there are 28 pieces. Except Zhouyi and Laozi, most of them are ancient lost books, and there are two ancient maps. This is an important discovery recorded in ancient books in China archaeology.
There are 200 cultural relics unearthed in Mawangdui, one of which is similar to Huangdi Neijing, which talks about the way of keeping in good health, and the other is about house art, six arts (ritual, music, shooting, imperial, calligraphy and counting): Zhouyi, funeral pictures, spring and autumn stories and letters from the Warring States period.
The Scholars: A version of Laozi (with 3 lost books), B version of Laozi, nine big pictures and letters to the emperor.
Sun Tzu's Art of War: A, B and C of Criminal Virtue.
Numerology: seal script yin and yang and five elements, official script yin and yang and five elements, five-star occupation, astronomical and meteorological miscellaneous occupation, travel occupation, wooden man occupation, symbol, god map, fortification map, garden sleeping map, fragrant horse sutra.
Recipes: Fifty-two prescriptions for diseases (with 4 lost copies), viviparous chart, health chart, miscellaneous therapy prescription and guide chart (with 2 lost copies) Maps: topographic map, garrison map and city map of southern Changsha.
Among them, the A and B versions of Laozi are the oldest versions we have seen so far. The discovery of Wuxing Zhan is the oldest astronomical document discovered by China. Fifty-two Prescriptions for Diseases is the oldest medical book found in China. It is expected that the collection of bamboo slips and silk books from Mawangdui Han Tomb in Changsha will be published in 20 12, including all the contents.
