So, why are there still people "guarding the emperor's mausoleum"?

What makes the "mausoleum keeper" persist all his life?

In fact, except for the person who committed the crime because of the emperor's order to spend his whole life on guarding the mausoleum, the other mausoleum guards all follow the family motto, or there is faith in their hearts to insist on guarding the mausoleum for the rest of their lives. The mausoleum keepers have long ceased to exist, because now the national policy does not need them, and all the imperial tombs are under the care of the state. As for now, everyone still thinks that there are mausoleum keepers, this is because the mausoleum keepers have never left the imperial mausoleum, maybe when everyone goes to the ** imperial mausoleum, the guardian at the gate of the imperial mausoleum is the mausoleum keeper.

Most of the mausoleum keepers will build villages and tribes next to the imperial mausoleum, so as to ensure that there are people watching the imperial mausoleum for generations. Therefore, even if the country does not need a mausoleum keeper, the mausoleum keeper will still appear near the imperial mausoleum. After the imperial mausoleum was circled by the state, people came to visit every year, and many tourists saw the existence of the mausoleum keepers and thought that they were still guarding the mausoleum.

The most important thing is that there are still the identities of the mausoleum keepers who have not been discovered, and the reason why they choose to continue to guard the mausoleum is because of beliefs, religious teachings and other reasons.

Although there are fewer and fewer mausoleum keepers, it is still thanks to their existence, because because of their existence, many cultural heritage sites have been preserved intact, so that the country has more cultural products that can be studied. Although there is no need for the existence of the mausoleum keepers now, it does not mean that their meaning does not exist, and there is always such a belief in their hearts, and they are born to protect the imperial mausoleum.

Because they used to be the emperor's cronies. It is because of their loyalty and commitment to themselves.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang will have a mausoleum keeper. Every emperor's tomb will have a tomb keeper, because the mausoleum often has a large number of funerary goods.

There should be no mausoleum keepers in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, after all, there is a large amount of mercury in the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, mercury has a certain toxicity, and living in this place for a long time will be seriously affected by the body, so there is no need to arrange mausoleum keepers.

Some. The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is now a cultural relic of our country, which is under the key protection of the state, and there must be mausoleum guards, the most important thing is to prevent some tomb robbers.

According to many legends, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang really has a mausoleum keeper, and it is agreed that every 20 years there will be a new generation, and each generation will guard the mausoleum for Qin Shi Huang. However, there is no official accurate record, so it can be regarded as none.

Yes. It is rumored that the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has a relatively mysterious guardian, and they change every twenty years. Moreover, it is rare to have an emperor's tomb without a mausoleum keeper.

Legend has it that the mausoleum keepers of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang are the Mongol clan, and they have shouldered the responsibility of guarding the mausoleum for generations.

Mausoleum keepers, also known as mausoleum guards or mausoleum keepers, is a profession in ancient China that is mainly responsible for guarding the tombs of emperors, empresses, princes and other members of the royal family. Its responsibilities include maintaining the safety of the imperial mausoleum, managing order in the mausoleum area, and conducting sacrificial ceremonies. Tomb keepers are loyal servants of the royal family, generally hereditary or elected, and enjoy special treatment.

The history of the tomb keepers can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties in ancient China. At that time, it was widely believed that the soul needed a place to rest after death, so the construction of tombs began. As time went on, the tombs grew in size and the preservation of the mausoleums became more and more important.

As a result, the profession of mausoleum keeper came into being.

In Chinese history, the status of the mausoleum keeper is very lofty. They generally live in government offices near the mausoleum and enjoy privileges from officials to the people. Their work includes inspecting the mausoleum, maintaining the mausoleum, and organizing sacrificial ceremonies.

During the sacrificial ceremony, the mausoleum keeper should follow strict ceremonial procedures and offer various utensils and sacrifices to the imperial tomb. In addition, they are also responsible for managing the farmland, pastures, etc. in the mausoleum area to ensure the best of the mausoleum.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the status of the mausoleum keepers reached its peak. At that time, the mausoleum keepers could not only enjoy high salaries and benefits, but also receive special rewards and titles from the emperor. At the same time, they can also have their own family and children and grandchildren, and pass on the position to the next generation.

However, with the changes of history, the profession of mausoleum keeper gradually declined. Especially in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, the number of mausoleum guards decreased significantly, and some mausoleum guards even lost their positions and income**. It was not until after the founding of the People's Republic of China that the profession of mausoleum keeper was officially abolished.

Although there are no real mausoleum keepers anymore, people's memory and inheritance of this profession have never been interrupted. Traces left by the mausoleum keepers can be seen in many cultural heritages and historical relics. At the same time, the profession of mausoleum keeper has also become an important symbol in Chinese culture, representing a traditional loyalty and responsibility.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is a real mausoleum keeper, and their family is the Mengshi family, but now it has changed its name and surname. During the period of Qin Shi Huang, all the generals emphasized loyalty, so after the death of Qin Shi Huang, there were descendants of that period who guarded the tomb of Qin Shi Huang. And Confucianism has prevailed in China since ancient times, whether it is the reign or the parents are alive, the people related to it must guard the mausoleum.

This is what we now call Ding Wei.

First of all, from the perspective of Confucianism, the kings and queens of that period had to guard their spirits. At that time, when Qin Shi Huang died, in order to prevent future generations from destroying his mausoleum, he specially ordered some people to guard his mausoleum to prevent future generations from destroying his mausoleum.

And his strong general, the Mengshi family, in order to protect the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, has to change a batch every 20 years. It is precisely because of the generations of the Montessori family that the tomb guards did not dare to steal the tomb of Qin Shi Huang easily. It is said that in history, Liu Bei dug the tomb of Qin Shi Huang in order to expand his personal army strength, but when he arrived at Lishan, he was driven down by the army led by Meng Yi.

After the death of a king in history, there would be a group of mausoleum guards to guard his tomb. Nowadays, with the protection of cultural relics by the state, the guardians of the tomb of Qin Shi Huang have gradually been forgotten by the world.

At present, archaeologists do not dig the tomb of Qin Shi Huang mainly for two reasons, one is because the bottom of the tomb of Qin Shi Huang is full of mercury, once the tomb of Qin Shi Huang is dug up, it will cause a certain degree of damage, and the difficulty of digging is very large, there is no technical support. On the other hand, there are many cultural relics in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, and in order to protect the cultural relics from destruction, archaeologists will also choose not to spend his mausoleum. According to archaeologists**, if you want to dig the tomb of Qin Shi Huang, it will take hundreds of years to completely dig up the tomb of Qin Shi Huang with the manpower and material resources invested.

Instead of digging up his mausoleum, it is better to choose to protect it from being stolen by future generations.
