Chapter 48

Running all the way out of the depths of the mountains, Baitang took out his bicycle, stepped on the bicycle and whistled happily on the way home.The unexpected harvest put Baitang in a very good mood. When he got home, he went upstairs to say hello to Bai's parents and mother, then picked up the travel bag that followed her across the two worlds and went out.The moment the backpack was put on the back, the two antiques were moved from the game backpack to the travel bag.

He called Zhang Feng downstairs in the hotel, and Bai Tang went straight to the cafe and ordered a pot of fruit tea to wait for him.Less than 5 minutes later, Zhang Feng walked in, looking very anxious.

"Miss Bai, did you bring your things?" Zhang Feng stared at Baitang's travel bag with twinkling eyes, as if it was about to be burned through.

"I brought two." Baitang took out the first item from his travel bag, which was a set of four porcelain prints.The front of this group of porcelain engravings is the story of three friendships in Taoyuan, and the back is painted with patterns of spring peaches, summer lotuses, autumn chrysanthemums, and winter plums. arrived.These porcelain engravings were intended to be inlaid into the wooden railings of furniture and beds.

Zhang Feng almost grabbed the porcelain prints and studied them carefully.

"...the blue color and black color are used on the glaze to form a combination of red, green, yellow, black, ochre, blue and other colors, which makes the color contrast more harmonious, stable, luxurious and deep. This is a typical Kangxi colorful This group of porcelain prints is from the Kangxi period." Zhang Feng's face was full of happiness, and he knew that Baitang had something good in his hands.

"Kangxi Five Colors?" Baitang was surprised, this was a product of the Kangxi Dynasty, how could it have anything to do with Kangxi?

Thinking that Baitang was surprised because she didn’t understand antiques, Zhang Feng explained to her wholeheartedly: “Porcelain engravings began in the late Qing Dynasty and have only a history of more than 100 years, but if we want to trace its historical origin, we have to start from the Tang Dynasty. According to his introduction. Porcelain prints evolved from the basis of traditional Chinese porcelain. At first, porcelain was only for practical purposes, and it gradually developed into decoration in the Tang Dynasty. In the middle of Ming Dynasty, Western enamel was introduced to China, so bucket colors and five colors were added. , Added a lot of color to the art of ceramic painting. Kangxi five colors changed the rough painting style of Jiajing and Wanli in Ming Dynasty, forming a style that is warm but not impetuous, calm but not delicate. There are distinct differences. Jiajing five colors highlight the use of red colors, while Kangxi five colors on glaze are the application of red, green, yellow, blue, ochre, black and other colors, which are full of changes. The five colors take Kangxi as the pole, and Kangxi five colors The five-color plate painting has various forms, and the other is the high achievement in painting. Although Kangxi’s five-color porcelain plate painting is highly skilled, it does not include the name of the author, and does not write the date of production. The purpose is also for decoration. This is the distinctive feature of Kangxi colorful porcelain paintings."

Baitang listened to Zhang Feng's explanation of Kangxi multicolored porcelain prints, and found that the characteristics of Kangxi's porcelain prints in the Yuan Dynasty were not the same as those of Kangxi's multicolored porcelain prints.It seems that even if it is a superficial dynasty, it was drawn by the natives of the Qing Dynasty. Except for the different names of the emperor and the dynasty, the social structure and humanities and folk customs are exactly the same.

"Sure enough, what Miss Bai has is all good things!" Zhang Feng praised Baitang, offering a price that he thought was reasonable.
Bai Tang nodded, she didn't study antiques but believed that Zhang Feng would not lose her, after all, the two of them would have a long-term business.

"Miss Bai, the next item..." Zhang Feng collected the porcelain prints and stared at Baitang expectantly again.

Baitang took out the second item from the bag with a smile, it was a wooden box made of golden nanmu, opened the lid of the box, and there was a round bead with a diameter of about one inch placed on the black brocade silk.

"This is a night pearl, it should be quite old." It came from the Ninth Prince's treasury, and it was carefully kept by the Ninth Prince, so it seems to be a good thing.

Zhang Feng examined the beads carefully, his face becoming more and more serious.He raised his head and took a deep breath: "Miss Bai, it's not very convenient here, let's go to my room and talk."

Bai Tang met Zhang Feng's cautious eyes and nodded.It seems that I have obtained a remarkable thing, this bead is not an ordinary luminous pearl, it may have a great origin.

After the two entered the hotel room, Zhang Feng immediately locked the door to prevent others from entering, and then pulled up all the curtains, making the room dark.Bai Tang sat leisurely on the chair and watched Zhang Feng busy, without worrying about whether Zhang Feng locked the door and closed the curtains, whether he had any obscene thoughts. She could see that Zhang Feng attached great importance to beads, so she became a little more curious about beads.

Zhang Feng held his breath and concentrated, slowly opened the lid of the box, and a soft and bright light like moonlight poured out from the box, illuminating the whole room, like a dream.

"It's so beautiful!" Baitang couldn't help admiring.

Zhang Feng was so excited that he was stupefied at this time, and he held the beads and murmured: "The diameter is inch wide, pure white and luminous, it can be used in a candle room... the night light that hangs in the sky, decorated with beads as candles... Bi Meihan Dongguo, the bright moonlight in Sichuan and Tibet. Ningzhi will return with a pearl after the chaos..."

"Mr. Zhang, do you know the origin of this bead?" Baitang poked Zhang Feng's arm, mainly because Zhang Feng's mind was completely attracted by the bead, and he couldn't hear Baitang's question.So after Zhang Feng was poked back to his senses by Baitang, she asked again.

"I'm not sure!" Zhang Feng inhaled inhale inhale and inhale again, and replied cautiously after subduing his overwhelming excitement.In fact, he was already [-]% sure that the bead was the legendary item he thought, but because it was too precious, he was not sure, and had to find several people to identify it together.

"I need to find a few colleagues to appraise it together." After Zhang Feng said, he picked up the phone and made several calls in succession, and then smiled sheepishly at Bai Tang, "Sorry, I was too excited just now. But if this bead is Really, it is a national treasure. I cannot make a decision on my own. Those colleagues are the most professional in the industry, and their appraisal is more authoritative."

"It doesn't matter!" Bai Tang replied more curiously and asked, "What is the origin of this bead, can you tell me?"

"I'm not sure yet!" Zhang Feng said.

"If you're not sure, can you tell me your guess? I'm so curious. Don't worry, even if you find out that something is not what you guessed in the future, I won't be disappointed." Just cover up your curiosity, okay?
Zhang Feng thought for a while and decided to tell Baitang his guess. He believed that Baitang was a rational person.

"This bead may be the Suihou bead."

"Suihou Zhu?" Baitang was at a loss, "What is that?"

Zhang Feng sat opposite Bai Tang, but his nostalgic gaze remained on the Suihou beads, unwilling to move at all.

"You know He's Bi, right?"

"I know! The most famous beautiful jade in ancient times, Qin Shihuang used it to make the imperial seal, which was regarded as a priceless treasure. Unfortunately, with the change of dynasties, it was lost after the Tang Dynasty." When watching "The Legend of Double Dragons in the Tang Dynasty", she coveted He's Bi.

"Suihou Zhu and He's Bi are both called the second treasure of Spring and Autumn, and their value is not inferior to He's Bi." Zhang Feng broke the big news, which made Baitang gasp.

"So awesome?" Baitang was speechless, "Why haven't I heard of it?"

"Do you know the idiom Suizhu Jingyu?" Zhang Feng asked.

Baitang nodded: "I know. Jingyu with pearls describes the best among treasures."

"That's right. Suizhu Jingyu is also known as Suizhu and Bi, which refers to Suihou Zhu and Heshibi. Both are top-level jewelry." Zhang Feng told Baitang about the origin of Suihou Zhu, "Suihou Zhu Beads are the treasures of Suiguo in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period. It is said that Suihou, the monarch of Suiguo, saw a wounded big snake on the side of the road in great pain on a trip. After the big snake recovered, he came to Suihou's residence with a night pearl and said: "I am the son of the Dragon King. I am grateful for your kindness in saving my life. I am here to repay my virtue." Therefore, the Suihou pearl is also called the "Pearl of the Spirit Snake". "Huainan "Zi" once recorded: "The Pearl of Suihou, the Bi of Bianhe, the one who gets it is rich, and the one who loses is poor." The entry note of "easy-going" in the old "Ci Hai": "The Pearl of Suihou, the Bi of Bianhe, are all treasures, Therefore, it is also called "easy-going".

"Because the Suihou Pearl was lost early on. The Suihou Pearl was originally the national treasure of Suiguo. After Suiguo was destroyed by Chu State, it fell into the hands of King Chu. After Chu was destroyed by Qin State, Qin Shihuang possessed Suihou Zhu and Heshi. Bi. This can be fully confirmed from Li Si’s "Book of Remonstrance and Exorcism". He wrote to advise and said: "The jade sent by your majesty to Kunshan today is the treasure of easygoing and harmony, and the pearl of the bright moon... the number of treasures, Qin did not give birth to anything, but your majesty said it, why?'”

Although Baitang traveled through ancient times, he still couldn't understand the meaning of classical Chinese, so he stared blankly and asked, "What do you mean?"

Zhang Feng laughed: "It means 'Now Your Majesty has obtained the beautiful jade from Kunlun Mountains, the Suihou Pearl, the Heshi Bi, and the Pearl of the Moon hanging on your body... and these treasures are not from Qin, but Your Majesty likes them very much. What's the reason?' It can be seen that the Suihou Zhu fell into the hands of Qin Shihuang at that time. Later, Qin Shihuang ordered Li Si to write "Ordered by heaven, and live forever". After Liu Bang destroyed the Qin Dynasty, Heshibi became the national seal of the Han emperors. After that, it lasted 1600 years and experienced the hands of more than 100 emperors. But Suihou Zhu has no history since Qin Shihuang. Some people have verified that Suihou Zhu He was buried with Qin Shihuang and replaced by candles in the tomb."

I fork!Could it be that the Ninth Princes stole Qin Shihuang's tomb?Facing Zhang Feng's gaze of "Did your sect steal Qin Shihuang's tomb", Bai Tang secretly wiped off his sweat, and said with a sneer, "I got this bead by accident, so there is absolutely no problem with its origin."

Zhang Feng smiled slightly and said no more.Even if Baitang's sect stole Qin Shihuang's tomb, it must have happened a long time ago. At that time, ZF had not yet been established, so how to pursue his responsibility for the tomb robbery?
