Chapter 137: Yuntai Hero
"Don't call me Teacher He, call me Lao He, and don't use yours. He Shuangyou said, "At first, we didn't know each other, and I didn't know much about your eyesight, but now, just feel free." β
"Okay, Lao He. β
"You just asked if there are any people in the industry who are dedicated to the Buddha?" He Shuangyou smiled, "What kind of place is the antique shop? Do you think someone who can devote himself to the Buddha?"
"Lao He, I think although there is a situation you mentioned, there must be different people in the antique shop. β
"Xiao Wu, such a person must have my identity, it is rare, knowing its black and guarding its white, it is easy to say, but it is too difficult to do. β
Wu Duo couldn't help but sigh.
"If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world, but the question is, how many people can reach it and have the heart?" He Shuangyou got up, "Get off work, let's go." β
Wu Duo nodded, and suddenly remembered that "hell is not empty, and you will not become a Buddha", which seems to be an endless cycleΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
The two left Daya Zhai together and separated at the gate of the antique city.
Wu Duo has experienced a lot of things recently, and there is still a backlog after a few slowdowns, so he didn't want to take a taxi home for a while, so he walked along the sidewalk.
Next to the antique city, there are also some small shops along the street, Wu Duo walked to the door of a small shop, saw an old man holding a black plastic bag in his hand, one foot in the door, one foot outside the door, and said to a man in the store, "Add more, add more." β
The man in the store is like the owner of this shop, there is about forty years old, with a square face, flat eyebrows and flat eyes, looking like a statue, and now he has a cold face, which makes him even more lifeless, he waved his hand, "Uncle, isn't it an old inkstone, non-dignified, even if it is from the Ming Dynasty, eight thousand is not a lot!"
After the square-faced shopkeeper finished speaking, he actually closed the door directly.
The old man sighed, turned around and went down the front steps, just in front of Wu Duo.
Wu Duo looked up at the plaque on the lintel of the storefront: "The Scholar's Room." I think it's a shop that specializes in the four treasures of the study.
The old man was dressed plainly and looked peaceful, but when he walked up to Wu Duo, he exhaled a bitter breath, and Wu Duo subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it.
"I'm sorry, young man, I've been on fire lately, and I've had bad breath. The old man immediately realized this and quickly apologized.
"Old man, are you going to sell inkstones?" Wu Duo also felt a little embarrassed to cover his mouth in front of others, but he reacted subconsciously just now, not intentionally.
"yes. β
"Why don't you go to the shop or antique city of the Chixia Mountain antique market opposite?"
"I just decided to sell it today, I came out late, I went to Chixia Mountain first, today is not a weekend, and the shops are closed early. I came to the antique city again, but it was too late to think about it, and I happened to see that this shop was engaged in the four treasures of the study, so I thought about it and tried it first. The old man patiently explained.
He was so patient, and he vaguely felt that Wu Duo seemed to be interested.
Wu Duodao, "Old man, I work in the antique city, and now I'm off work." However, if it is the right thing, I can personally accept it. β
"Can you really take it?" the old man's face was happy.
Wu Duo thought to himself, just now I heard the square-faced boss in the study room say "eight thousand", and then the old man said "add a little more", then this thing is not much more expensive.
"Let's find a place, shall I take a look first?"
"Okay, okay!"
Wu Duo looked around, there was a noodle restaurant not far away, the store was quite big, it was called "Lao Yu's Noodle Restaurant", "Old man, why don't I invite you to have a light meal, it's time for dinner." β
"How does this work?"
Wu Duo stretched out his hand and pointed to the signboard of the noodle restaurant, "Just eat noodles, it's also a business, isn't it normal for me to invite you to a meal!"
The old man still excused himself, and Wu Duo smiled, "Besides, it's a little dark this day, so we can't just watch it on the street! Let's go, let's go, things are a big thing, and eating a bowl of noodles is a small thing." β
Wu Duo said, and then took a step towards the noodle restaurant.
The old man hesitated, but still followed.
Wu Duo chose a seat in the corner, and after the two sat down, the waiter stepped forward, Wu Duo thought about it, and said to the waiter, "Let's talk about things first, and then order when it's over, please give you two bottles of mineral water first." β
The waiter smiled and quickly brought two bottles of water.
"Sir, this is all right, if the deal fails, you can leave if you want, and I will stay and eat noodles by myself. If it does, then I will collect the good things, please have a meal to celebrate, you will not refuse!"
The old man laughed, "Young man, you are so young, you are really thoughtful. β
"Then I'll look at things first, and you drink saliva first. β
The inkstone was in the old man's black plastic bag, and there were several layers of newspapers, and there was no box or anything.
Wu Duo opened the newspaper and picked up the inkstone.
The inkstone is rectangular in shape, about twenty centimeters long and about twelve centimeters wide.
The inkstone pond is round. To be exact, it is the shape of a Tai Chi, with a separation in the inkstone pond, and a "fish eye" of one yin and one yang is carved.
The bluestone texture, the tone is very bright and beautiful, if you exaggerate a little, there is a feeling of winning a thousand peaks and reflecting the blue lake.
At the bottom of the excavated inkstone pond, a bluish and white stripe was revealed, like ripples in the water.
Wu Duo's spirit couldn't help but perk, and he said that the shopkeeper didn't know the goods, or his heart was too dark. This inkstone looks very photogenic, and it is not beautiful on the surface, but also has such a Ling Ran atmosphere.
However, what the shopkeeper said is right, this inkstone is "non-end, non-she", not duan, not she.
Although the color of this bluestone is beautiful, it may not be a good material for storing ink and making ink.
Wu Duo couldn't recognize what kind of stone it was, it looked a bit like Taohe inkstone, but the color was much brighter than the commonly seen Taohe inkstone, although it was textured, it was extremely delicate.
On both sides of the inkstone, a column of inscriptions is engraved, as if a couplet has been formed.
Engraved on the right side: Tianhe beautiful stone, Shengong Kaiwu, inkstone Taiji, ink five colors.
Engraved on the left: Yuntai Ying Lord, Hongyi as an inkstone, the age is in Jiashen, when it is Sanyang.
Wu Duo looked at this inscription, and his tone was so big!
This "Tianhe beautiful stone" is not the meaning of "Tianhe stone", it is a beautifying statement. Tianhe stone, also known as Amazon stone, is a blue-green variant of microcline feldspar, a bit like jadeite, for Wu Duo, a professional in gems and jade, you can see at a glance that it is not Tianhe stone.
Tianhe stone can be classified as gem and jade, and although the stone of this inkstone is beautiful, it is only a "stone". However, as an inkstone, it is functional, and not the more expensive the better.
Although the first sentence of this inscription is somewhat exaggerated, it can be regarded as an artistic expression, and the most intonal sentence is in the second sentence.
Gimbal Hero!
Yuntai, also known as the platform, what kind of place is this, this is the Forbidden City Jianji Hall in the center to the back, "high on the top of the white jade railing and the Qianqing Gate, Yuntai Gate also"!
Now some people will feel unfamiliar with the Jianji Palace, because this is the name of the Ming Dynasty, and in the Qing Dynasty, the Jianji Hall of the Forbidden City was renamed and changed to the Baohe Palace.
As soon as it comes to the Baohe Palace, there are many people who know about it, because this is the place where the temple is tested, and the place where the champion is produced.
In the Ming Dynasty, in the Yuntai of the Jidian Palace, there was the so-called "platform calling", and the emperor summoned the ministers to ask and answer.
Therefore, the "Yuntai Hero" can only be one person, and that is the emperor!
Combined with the characteristics of this inkstone, it is full of a strong Taoist atmosphere, Wu Duo did not listen to it, and roughly had a guess that this "Yuntai Hero" is likely to be Emperor Jiajing.
Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi did not ascend to the throne as a crown prince, he ascended the throne as a cousin of Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Houzhao is the bottom of the word fire, and Zhu Houxi is next to the word fire, a lifetime.
The names of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, except for Zhu Yuanzhang, are all on the side of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and they are pushed down in the order of the five elements. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang's son, Yongle Emperor Zhu Di, is next to the word wood; wood makes fire, and the crown prince Zhu Gaochi is next to the word fire; fire gives birth to earth, and "holy grandson" Zhu Zhanji is the bottom of the word earth. And so on.
Therefore, the name of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is very easy to remember, and Wu Duo can also go down in one go.
This Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, since he is not the crown prince to ascend the throne, then he did not grow up in the capital, he is the son of a vassal king who grew up in Hubei.
Before Zhu Houxi was fifteen years old, he must have felt that it was difficult to enter the capital. Because in the Ming Dynasty, "the vassal king entered Beijing without authorization" and "the border general made friends with close ministers" were both big crimes of losing their heads.
There is a Wudang Mountain in Hubei, a Taoist holy land. Zhu Houxi, who grew up in Hubei, was deeply influenced by Taoism. Emperor Jiajing believed in Taoism all his life and vigorously supported Taoism.
Therefore, if this Yuntai Yingzhu Taiji inkstone, if it is genuine, it should be a thing for the Jiajing Emperor!
The Jiashen year in the inscription, if it is placed during the reign of Emperor Jiajing, there is only one year corresponding, 1524.
Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne in 1521 at the age of fifteen, and in 1524, that is, at the age of eighteen.
The young son of heaven, the hero of Yuntai, the beautiful inkstone, all aspects will comply.
Wu Duo thought while watching, and suddenly felt a little complacent, I'm okay!
In fact, intellectual inference is not very difficult in the first place, but it is difficult to determine the date and discern the process.
And now, Wu Duo can't even determine the stone of this inkstone.
