The only imperial tomb excavated by the archaeological emperor in the Tang Dynasty, a special discovery in the Palace of the Earth can not be explained to the present.

Introduction: in Shaanxi Guanzhong Wei to the north of the plateau from the west to the East, the distribution of the 18 seat of the Tang Dynasty Emperor Ling Ling, known as "Tang Ling eighteen". Familiar with the history of the Tang Dynasty people may ask, a total of 20 Tang Dynasty 21 Emperor Mausoleum (Emperor Li Zhi and queen Wu Zetian buried, why there are only 18 Qianling) mausoleum?

Because Tang Zhaozong Li Ye and Tang emperor AI Li Zhu was crowned the puppet emperor Zhu Wen, finally all died, was buried in a Henan Yanshi, a funeral in Shandong of Heze, so in Guanzhong of Shaanxi only 18 Tang Dynasty mausoleum. In the 18 Tang Dynasty mausoleum, the last one built is Tang Xizong Li Xuan Jing ling.

Tang Xizong, Li Xuan, the last emperor of the Tang Dynasty to master the real power. He broke out in the large-scale peasant uprising, which was also captured Huang Chao's army uprising in the capital Changan, Tang Xizong can only follow ancestor Tang Xuanzong Li Longji fled to Sichuan, and later the Huang Chao uprising army failed to return to the capital Changan Xi Zong tang. Although the new emperor, but Tang Xizong lost control of the country, the basic life spent in suffering.

In 888 ad, the emperor ridiculous at the age of 27 to the end of life, although Tang Xi Zong life in the way of escape, but before he died in the city of Changan has spent at trekker death.

In the era of Tang Xizong's life, the Tang Dynasty had no glory in the past. The eunuch was in disorder and the warlords were separated. In such a turbulent era, the jingling Mausoleum of Tang Xizong could only be built in a careless way, and even the mausoleum site had not been carefully examined. Jing Ling is located 50 kilometers northwest of Qianxian County Shaanxi Xianyang Nanling village, from here Tang Gaozong and Wu Zetian Qianling only a few miles away, if not rush to build, out of fear of ancestors, no one dare emperor was buried in Qianling foot.

The history of Jing Ling repeatedly stolen, 1994, a gang of robbers with explosives will Jing Ling blow a hole, in order to better protect the mausoleum, 1995 Shaanxi province archaeological team carried out a protective excavation of Jing Ling, it has also become China's only a Tang Dynasty mausoleum unearthed.

Archaeological excavations show, Jing Ling Palace of the Earth by ramps, corridor, the tomb of three parts, the construction of Palace of the Earth is very rough, scale, quality is not a tomb of emperor, as the Tang Dynasty Prince Princess tomb, which is also reflected from the side, the central government at the time of the Tang Dynasty has reached the point where the end of hills and rivers.

Jing Ling Palace of the Earth due to multiple stolen things inside, scattered on the ground, the archaeologists discovered a few pieces of bone in the mud, through the identification of Tang Xizong and the queen remains. In the unearthed "jade mourning book" remnants, it is clear that the owner of the tomb is Tang Xizong Li Xuan.

In the process of cleaning, found a very strange thing archaeologists tomb is still, that is placed on the coffin coffin of Jing Ling, turned out to be two people into the grave. The two men are Shang Zuopu she doulu Qin Wang and Yang Zuopu she consulted historical data after the festival re - think, archaeologists found that two people are not far from the tomb funerary Qianling minister.

Dignified imperial tombs, coffin tombs to why Qianling tomb? This makes the archaeologists very puzzled. Is it just because the construction of haste, too late to bring new stones, or because of other unknown secret? Until today, no one can explain this spectacle.
