A tombstone was unearthed in Jiangsu, with the inscription "There is no treasure inside" engraved on it. Experts were overjoyed: dig deeper quickly. Why?
In ancient times, people attached great importance to death. Even when they were dying, they wanted to take their wealth to their tombs and continue to enjoy their wealth after death. Therefore, it has become a new way to make a fortune in the eyes of tomb robbers. In order to prevent theft, Qin Shihuang poured a large amount of mercury into his main tomb and set up a gold-touching school. Cao Cao will naturally guard against the tomb being stolen after his death, so the seventy-two suspicious tombs are like this appeared. The ancient tomb of the Western Han Dynasty introduced today found that there was no treasure inside. The experts were dumbfounded after reading it.
At the western foot of Guishan Mountain in Gulou District, Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province, workers were digging into the mountain to collect stones. On this day, they found some stones. Block looked at the age and immediately reported it to the relevant departments. The archaeological team quickly went to conduct investigation and initially determined that this was a Western Han Dynasty tomb. The tomb is 83 meters long from east to west and 33 meters wide at its north-south point, with a total area of more than 700 square meters. Almost all of Guishan Mountain has been hollowed out. There are bedrooms, living rooms, stables, and kitchens in the tomb. It is completely an underground palace. Experts found a turtle button silver seal in the tomb. The seal is in the shape of a square turtle with its head raised and four legs standing upright. There are patterns engraved on the back armor.

Liu Zhu, clan member of the Han Dynasty, king of Chu in the Western Han Dynasty. His great-grandfather, King Liu Jiao of Chu Yuan Dynasty, was the younger brother of Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty. According to records, Guishan is where Liu Zhu’s cemetery is located.
However, there is a stone tablet in the tomb that makes experts dumbfounded. The content on it is that the ancient corpse king of Chu told the sky that the burial coffin was Chunbu Buwa. It is a blessing for the doctor to regard this bibliography, but it is a pity for the benevolent. The general meaning is that he can swear to God that although he is a generation of Chu kings, there are absolutely no precious burial objects in the tomb, only a coffin, so don't go out and dig it out. It turns out that this is a letter written to the tomb robbers crying for poverty. After comprehensive cleaning, experts did not find any valuable cultural relics. When Liu Zhu was buried, he was wrapped in silver and jade clothes and was also looted by tomb thieves. As for the turtle seal that proved the identity of the tomb owner, experts speculated that it might be because of its small size. I didn't realize that there is no use crying about poverty with tomb robbers.
