"Search for Lost New Epitaphs from Qin, Jin and Yu" (Zhao Junping、Compiled by Zhao Wencheng，National Library Press 2012 edition) contains one piece of "Tang Guo Yichong and his wife Zhang's epitaph"，Plate number 832。according to introduction，The epitaph was unearthed in Mengzhou City, Henan Province in the spring of 2008，Return to Luoyang Zhang family collection，Obviously it was not unearthed by a formal archaeological excavation。Zhou Ling’s 2015 master’s thesis of Southwest University, “Collection and Research of New Epitaphs from Qin, Jin, and Yu, Collection and Research of Epitaphs of the Late Tang bet365 bonus bets” provides a textual interpretation of the plates of this party’s epitaphs，And made a simple comment，But no doubt was raised about the party’s epitaph。After that，Japanese scholar Yasuki Ikazawa's "New Comprehensive Catalog of Tang bet365 bonus bets Epitaph Locations" (Jigu Academy 2017 edition) also includes this epitaph，Number 11425。In recent years，A rare person who conducts further research on this party’s epitaph。According to the first title of the epitaph of this party, "Zhang Guofu, the former Chief Magistrate of the Central Military Cabinet in the Tang bet365 bonus bets, with the epitaph and preface" and the year of death and burial of the epitaph's wife Zhang - the second year of Qianfu (875)，Indicates that this is an epitaph from the late Tang bet365 bonus bets。Read the Zhiwen carefully，But found many doubts，The details are as follows。

The first title of the epitaph states that Guo Yichong is the "Chief Judge of the Chinese Military Cabinet"。Everyone knows，The "Cabinet" as a central organization was first established in the Ming bet365 bonus bets，The Tang bet365 bonus bets did not exist。Zhiwen contains Mrs. Zhang of Guo Yichong，His great-grandfather Zhang Hai，"Cumulative gifts to the court"、Tongfeng doctor”，However, "Tongfeng Dafu" was not an official title in the Tang bet365 bonus bets。According to "History of the Song bet365 bonus bets" Volume 169 "Official Officials Nine"，Tongfeng Doctor，rank name，"New Grand View"，That is, the new one set up during the Daguan period of the Northern Song bet365 bonus bets。Ming bet365 bonus bets，A rank official who usually serves the doctor as a prose official，Volume 72 of "History of the Ming bet365 bonus bets" "Zhi Guan Yi" records: "There are 40 or 20 prose grades...from the second grade，Firstly awarded Zhongfeng Doctor，Promoted to Tongfeng Doctor，Additionally awarded the title of Zhengfeng Doctor。”Qing bet365 bonus bets，The official rank granted by becoming a civil servant through becoming a doctor，Volume 110 "Election Five" of "Manuscripts of Qing History" contains: "The rank of civil service grant...the second-grade senior official，Served as a doctor from the second rank。”Visible，Tongfeng Dafu is an official title that only appeared after the Song bet365 bonus bets，And it was used until the Ming and Qing Dynasties，It is impossible to appear in the epitaphs of the Tang bet365 bonus bets。Also Zhang’s father, Zhang Xu, “presented him as a gift to the emperor”、Doctor Zhongsan、Promote Dingguofu"，Zi Guoshuo "Promoted Judge by Luozhou History Department"，Promoter、The promotion of judge is also not an official title in the Tang bet365 bonus bets。The "Dictionary of Chinese Official System in Ancient Dynasties" (revised edition) edited by Lu Zongli, the article "Tiji" says: "Tiji，Official name。The beginning of the Song bet365 bonus bets，Abbreviation for promotion to Chang Ping official，Also a dispatch name”，It was used until the Qing bet365 bonus bets。Therefore, the official title "Tiju" should not appear in the epitaphs of the Tang bet365 bonus bets。Also, the official title of the son-in-law Li Mai, "Xiuzhilang", is also not an official name in the Tang bet365 bonus bets，"History of the Song bet365 bonus bets·Office Nine" contains: "Cong Zheng Lang、Xiu Zhi Lang、Digong Lang，Shangzhenghe updated，Also uses testimonials and merit rewards to select officials。"That is, Xiuzhilang was newly established during the reign of Zongzhenghe of Song bet365 bonus bets。Ming bet365 bonus bets，Xiu Zhilang is the eighth rank of civil servants；So many official titles from the Song bet365 bonus bets and later dynasties appear in the epitaphs of the Tang bet365 bonus bets，It must be said that this is a major flaw of the epitaph。

Another epitaph，Mrs. Zhang's wife "raised her husband to the court，Enfeng Ruren；Log in now，Enfeng Anren”。According to "Old Tang Book" Volume 43 "Official Officials Two"，Mother of an official in Tang bet365 bonus bets、My wife’s title is Lady of the Country、Mrs. County、junjun、County Lord and Township Lord，Ruren is the title of the wives and concubines of the princes of the Tang bet365 bonus bets，"Prince Fan，Two Ruren，Shizheng Wupin；媵十人，Such as the Sixth Grade”。Ruizong Suming, Queen Liu，“Yifengzhong，Ruizong Jufan，The queen is a child，Seeking to be a concubine”；Ruizong Zhaocheng Shunsheng Queen Dou Family，"Ruizong was a Ruren when he was the Prime Minister"。So Zhang, who is the wife of an ordinary official，It was impossible to obtain the title of "Ruren" in the Tang bet365 bonus bets。"Ruren" and "Anren" are the titles of foreign women in the Song bet365 bonus bets，Volume 163 of "History of the Song bet365 bonus bets" "Official Officials Three": "There are four out of ten names for women who are destined to be outside and inside: she is the eldest princess，The Princess，Princess，Princess Princess，The County Lord，Mrs. Japan，Mrs. Yuejun，曷人，曰Shuoren，曰人人，曰Gongren，曰义人，曰安人，曺人。"The titles of foreign wives in the Ming bet365 bonus bets were partially reformed compared to those in the Song bet365 bonus bets，But the titles of "Anren" and "Ruren" have been passed down，"Sixth grade said Anren，The seventh grade is called Ruren"。The title of foreign married women in the Qing bet365 bonus bets was further refined: "文、Wu Zheng、From a first-class wife to a first-class wife。……positive、From Liupinanren。positive、From the seventh grade of Ruren。positive、From the eighth grade to the eighth grade Ruren。positive、From the ninth rank to the ninth rank Ruren。Martial rank Eight Banners Eighth Grade and below、Wives below the seventh rank of Green Flag Camp are not granted a title。Later it was changed to Green Flag Yingzheng seventh-grade wife and children。”Visible，The Zhang family titles "Anren" and "Ruren" in the "Epitaph of Guo Yichong and his wife Zhang" should not appear in the epitaph of the Tang bet365 bonus bets，This is another major flaw of the epitaph。

Ru Zhi Wen Zhi，Zhang Shen, the great ancestor of the Zhang family, "gifted it to the governor of Hancheng"，But Hancheng was a county-level administrative agency in the Tang bet365 bonus bets，Under the jurisdiction of the same state，"Old Tang Book" Volume 38 "Geography 1" contains: "Hancheng，Sui County。Seven Years of Martial Arts (624)，Separated from Sehanju。Eight years，The reason for moving from Hexi County to West Korea，Lead Hancheng、郃阳、Three counties in Hexi。The eighth year of Zhenguan (634)，Abolish Western Hanzhou，Hancheng and other three counties will be restored to the same state。"Combined with the late Tang bet365 bonus bets in which the epitaph is located，Zhang Shen only said "Hancheng County Magistrate"，And shall not be called "Hancheng Governor"。He also wanted Guo Yichong to be appointed as the "Chief Governor of Chuzhou"、Given to the Chief Magistrate of the Central Military Cabinet in Luozhou”，Administrative level of "Chuzhou"、The place names of "Luozhou" are inconsistent with the times。According to "Old Tang Book" Volume 40 "Geography Three": "Under Chuzhou。Qingliu County, the capital of Sui bet365 bonus bets。Three Years of Wude，Du Fuwei returns to China，Place in Chuzhou，Also attributed to Quanjiao from Yangzhou。The first year of Tianbao (742)，Changed to Yongyang County。The first year of Qianyuan (758)，Returned to Chuzhou。"That is, Chuzhou was Xiazhou in the Tang bet365 bonus bets，The Tang bet365 bonus bets never set up a governor's palace here，Therefore, Guo Yichong’s official title should not be called “Chief Governor of Chuzhou”。"Luozhou" established the General Administration Office in the fourth year of Wude，"November of that year，Dismiss the General Manager’s Office，Built at Daxingtai, Shaanxi Road。Nine years，Strike platform，Building Luozhou Dudufu... (Eighteenth year of Zhenguan)，Abolish the Governor's Mansion...the first year of Kaiyuan (713)，Change Luozhou to Henan Prefecture”。So after the first year of Kaiyuan，"Luozhou" should be called "Henan Prefecture"。Zhiwen Yuyun，Zhang was "born in Minzhou"，Ranzhong late Tang bet365 bonus bets，There is no setting for Minzhou，According to "Old Tang Book" Volume 40 "Geography Three"，"Chen set up Minzhou，Changed to Fengzhou。Changed from Sui Pingchen to Quanzhou，Yangdi changed it to Minzhou，Also known as Jian'an County。Thirteenth year of Kaiyuan (725)，Changed to Fuzhou”；The early years of Tianbao，Changed to Changle County，"The first year of Qianyuan，Restored to Fuzhou Dudufu”。Visible，This place was always called "Fuzhou" during the middle and late Tang bet365 bonus bets，Instead of "Minzhou"。

According to research by Japanese scholar Makoto Okano，Generally speaking，Tang people are talking about the emperor、Emperor、Your Majesty、Supreme、Emperor、Imperial Examination、When the emperor’s concubine waits for the venerable or elders，Space required，To show respect。But the epitaph of this party is Gaozu、Great-grandfather、ancestor、Fathers and elders，There is no space before "Jinshang" referring to the emperor，Instead, when describing his son in line 13，There is a blank space before "子"，Looks young、No distinction between high and low。Also，The wording in this epitaph does not conform to the custom of Tang bet365 bonus bets stone tablets，Because it is in the epitaph of the Tang bet365 bonus bets，It is rare to write the word "bin" in the first title "Epitaph and Preface" as "bin"，It is also rare to write the word "nei" in the word "nei" between husband and wife。In terms of year, month and day，Although the "Qianfu 2nd Year" in this epitaph is consistent with the "Yiwei" in the Jiazi Year，But the dates don’t match，The first day of October is not "Xin Mao"，According to Fang Shiming's "Comparison Table of Chinese Historical Days and Chinese and Western Calendar Days"，The first day of October is "Gengxu"。In addition，There are obvious typos in this epitaph，For example, Zhizhu’s great-grandfather “granted him to the Qing bet365 bonus bets official of the Zuo bet365 bonus bets”，Moved to Luzhou and became the governor”，The "Qing" in "Chao Qing Dafu" should be "please"，The "dang" in "being a prefect" should be the "party", etc.。

Overview，"The Epitaph of Guo Yichong and his Wife Zhang's Nephew in Tang bet365 bonus bets" is a fake with poor level of forgery，Because of the many official titles in the epitaph (such as cabinet、Lift、Tongfeng Doctor、Xiu Zhilang) and An Ren, who is titled as a married woman、None of the children belong to the Tang bet365 bonus bets，It only appeared since the Song bet365 bonus bets；Some administrative level settings are also inconsistent with the middle and late Tang bet365 bonus bets，For example, Hancheng in the Tang bet365 bonus bets was not a state-level administrative level、Chuzhou has never set up a governor’s office、Luozhou has been changed to Henan Prefecture after Kaiyuan、Minzhou was called Fuzhou etc. in the middle and late Tang bet365 bonus bets；The flat format in the epitaph and the wording used in some stone carvings do not conform to the customs of the Tang bet365 bonus bets，There are also problems with Jiazi Anniversary。There are various signs that，The Epitaph of Tang Guo Yichong and his Wife Zhang’s Nephew is a forgery，It should be removed from the Tang bet365 bonus bets epitaphs，So as not to cause trouble to future research。Unfortunately，No altered original of this epitaph has been found so far，After all, there have been many epitaphs since the Song bet365 bonus bets，Especially the epitaphs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties，There is no ready-made collation results in academia，So it is not easy to discover the truth。Judging from the content of the article，This epitaph may be an adaptation based on an epitaph from the Qing bet365 bonus bets，Because the author of the epitaph wrote in the column "Chao Sanlang, Chao Yi, Shangzhu, the official of the state, selected the records of the Qing bet365 bonus bets and sealed them"，The word "Qing" in "Qing Qin Ji"，Indicates that the author may be a Qing bet365 bonus bets person，And the official title in Zhiwen、The title of a foreign woman is also consistent with the Qing bet365 bonus bets；Of course, the possibility of a fictitious epitaph cannot be ruled out。Although it will take some time to find the revised original copy of "The Epitaph of Guo Yichong and his Wife Zhang"，But this does not affect the judgment of the epitaph as fake，Scholars must be vigilant when citing。
