Saying this, Zhang Nan stood up and walked over, and when he got closer, he saw that this was a huge stone super bowl, carved with wave patterns all over, and two swimming dragons were also carved, which looked ancient.

The weight looks at least a thousand catties, and a ton is not necessarily, there is water inside, and there are a few small lotus plants.

Hearing Zhang Nan's question, Weng Qianhui followed: "The year before last, Ye Ming got it from the demolished old house outside Xihua Gate, it seems to be an old thing from a deserted Qing Dynasty Taoist hall, and it looks good here." ”

This will Zhang Nan is leaning down to look at the stone base of the big stone bowl, this guy is a volume larger than the big bowl above, eight sides and eight legs, double-layer splicing, carved with dragon beasts, waves...

The knife technique is round and majestic!

Hearing Weng Qianhui's words, Zhang Nan raised his head and said, "Moved from the Old Zhenwu Temple?"

The woman shook her head, "True Martial Temple?"

Zhang Nan explained that there should have been a Zhenwu Temple in the Qing Dynasty outside Xihua Gate, but it had long been abandoned, and the location of the temple had long been turned into a private house.

"Ah Ming, go and call Ye Ming. ”

Or ask Weng Yeming to forget it, anyway, he will be at home, this Lin Ming turned around and left.

It's not good if the house is too big, according to the size of Baylor House, it is estimated that people are shouting at the top of their voices here, and they are not heard there.

Gotta run errands.

Seeing Zhang Nan's actions, Weng Qianhui felt that this thing was not simple, if it was an ordinary old object in the temple, Zhang Nan would not be so concerned.

"Isn't it good to move things back from the temple?"

Zhang Nan smiled, "It's okay, it's not so particular."

It is normal for believers to go to the temple to ask the gods to come back, and I have heard that in some places in Hunan Province, there used to be a custom to go to the temple to steal a statue of a god or a Buddha statue before opening a shop.

Some temples over there simply enshrine a small number of statues of gods that are specially designed for people to steal, and anyway, under normal circumstances, the person who stole the statues will go back to the temple the next day and consciously donate some money.

It's normal for us to move this thing back, not to mention that the temple has long been abandoned, it's okay. ”

"Is that a stone bowl?"

It's not a taboo, it's the object itself.

"The stone bowl Qianlong Emperor let people carve it, forget it. But the real thing is this double-layered base, a relic from the Kublai Khan period of the Great Mongolian Kingdom, an object ordered by the founding emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. ”

"The stone bowl of the Qing Dynasty is equipped with a base of the Yuan Dynasty?"

Hearing this explanation, Weng Qianhui was a little confused.

"It's not the Yuan Dynasty, it's the Great Mongolian State, and it was only in 1271 that Kublai Khan named the country 'Great Yuan'. If I'm not mistaken, I think it was made in 1265, not before the Yuan Dynasty..."

And then...

Weng Qianhui came back to her senses, "How do you know?"

The original military dog handler was not on the side, he was playing with "Lord Bellor" in the distance, and there were only three of them here, so there was nothing to say.

Zhang Nan smiled and said, "Analysis and knowledge." ”

He kicked the stone seat lightly again, and said: "The surface weathering degree of this base and the stone bowl on the top is different, and they can be 500 years apart, and the carving method and shape of the dragon pattern of the stone bowl and the base are different, so they can be separated here."

As for the exact chronology... Qianhui, you are the old capital, and you have been to Beihai Park 100%, right? ”

"Hmm. ”

That's not nonsense!

The old people in Beijing have never been to Beihai Park?

"There is a jade urn pavilion in front of the Chengguang Hall of the Tuancheng in Beihai Park, what is in it?"

Weng Qianhui went to Beihai Park several times in spring and autumn when he was a child, but after so much time, although he should have been there at the beginning, he just couldn't remember what was in it.

If you hadn't gone out of your way to see that thing, you wouldn't have remembered.

It just so happened that Weng Yeming and Lin Ming came, and Weng Qianhui casually asked his younger brother what was in that pavilion.

When Weng Yeming heard this, he said to his sister: "There is the 'Great Jade Sea' left by the Yuan Dynasty in it, what's wrong sister?"

Weng Qianhui didn't answer immediately, as if she remembered something—it seemed that there was a super big guy there!

Here, Zhang Nan no longer hung people's appetites, and said to Weng Yeming: "You moved back the original base of the Great Jade Sea of the Mountains, and besides, there was no Yuan Dynasty when this thing was made, and it was called Mongolia, don't make a mistake." ”

Weng Yeming's face instantly felt like an "ah" was written!

No, no!

The general stone base is not unusual, but if it is the base of the "desecrated mountain and jade sea", it is amazing.

It would be a joke if people in the antique circles in Beijing did not know about the "Great Jade Sea of Mountains"! It was one of the "Top Ten Zhenguo Jade" in China selected by the good deeds, and the ranking should be very high: the earliest giant jade carving in the history of China, which opened a precedent for large-scale jade carving works, is now displayed in the pavilion in Beihai Park to confess and visit.

Hearing Zhang Nan's words, Weng Yeming also looked at the set of stone objects he got back, and then put the huge jade sea in his memory on the base: seamless!

The original function of that piece in the Great Jade Sea was to be used as a wine storage vessel, to put it bluntly, it was a super large wine urn, oval-shaped, weighing 3.5 tons!

Carved with a whole piece of black and white black jade, the inside of the jade urn was hollowed out, the level of carving craftsmanship in the era of the Great Mongolian Kingdom did not talk about it, anyway, Kublai Khan ordered the carving and chisel, and then the Qianlong guy asked people to repair it four times, and it is estimated that the patterns on the outside have changed greatly.

History records that this super large wine urn can store more than 30 stones, which is equivalent to 3,600 bottles of liquor: according to the records of "Yuan Shi - Shizu Benji", the big jade sea was made in the second year of the Yuan Dynasty (1265), which was made by Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, to reward the three armies.

At first, the Great Jade Sea was placed in the Guanghan Hall of Qionghua Island (where the current White Pagoda is located) in the Taiye (now Beihai) of the Yuan Dynasty, and when the Yuan Dynasty fell, the rest of the Yuan Dynasty withdrew to Mobei, and a large number of palace treasures in the capital could not be taken away, and were obtained by the Ming army, including the "Great Jade Sea of Mountains".

Since the time of Zhu Yuanzhang, for the next 200 years, Da Yuhai has been placed in the Guanghan Palace.

Who's going to touch it if they're fine?

The base is not counted, the weight of the jade sea itself is at least 7,000 pounds, you don't have to worry about it being stolen!

However, in the Wanli period of the late Ming Dynasty, a fire burned the Guanghan Palace, and the big jade sea placed in it was also burned beyond recognition!

After that, the Great Jade Sea that had experienced the fire was very miserable, and it was forgotten in the corner of the palace ruins for a long time, and no one paid attention to it at all.

I don't know when, the Taoist of Zhenwu Temple outside the Xihua Gate in the capital found this big "stone urn" in the ruins, and felt that it was the most suitable to use it to pickle pickles, so he managed to pull it to the Zhenwu Temple along with the base, and used it as a jar for pickles.

In this way, it stayed in the Zhenwu Temple until the Kangxi period, and it was discovered by people who knew the goods: the pickled vegetable jar in the Zhenwu Temple was actually the big wine vat of Kublai Khan!

However, no one moved it, and for the next few decades, it continued to be left in the Zhenwu Temple.

In the year of Qianlong, Qianlong, who loved jade as much as his life, heard about the big jade sea in Zhenwu Temple, and it became the emperor's treasure, and it was newly equipped with a white marble carved flower seat.

It is strange that Qianlong only used money to buy the jade sea in the temple, but did not want the base: Zhang Nan also knew that Hongli also had people carve a slightly smaller stone bowl and put it on the original base to stay in the temple.

Because the Great Jade Sea has been burned for a long time, exposed to the wind and rain, when Qianlong saw it, the Great Jade Sea had already been unrecognizable. In order to restore its former glory, Qianlong successively selected the royal jade workers to carry out large-scale restorative carvings on it four times.

And what about its original base?

Where have you been!

Zhang Nan knew that it had always been in the Zhenwu Temple, but that was the result of the research after someone found it in the previous life: since the Qianlong year, this original base has begun to be forgotten, and even the later Taoists in the temple gradually do not know the origin of this base and the big stone bowl on it.

asked Weng Yeming how this thing came about, and the latter said: "A friend said that the demolition of that piece of land was due to the Forbidden City, because it was relying on the Forbidden City, and it should have been within the scope of the Imperial City.

My friend and I went shopping to see if we could pick up some old things, and we saw this thing in the courtyard of the house, which used to be the Zhenwu Temple.

It cost five hundred yuan, and it feels like it's just right to put it here. ”

It's just right, and it fits the environment of this big garden: this combination of the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty doesn't look awkward at all, it's good.

As for why it waited for Weng Yeming to bring it back in the Zhenwu Temple that had been turned into a private house, and it was not discovered or taken away by any other institution or person, so there was no need to think about it, anyway, it felt that it was very pleasing to the eye to stay here as a decoration.

This thing is in your own house, so no one else wants to get it, as for the big jade sea, just continue to stay with its Qing Dynasty base, anyway, it was like that combination in the previous life.

Speaking of that big jade sea, Guan Xingquan and Lin Ming have never seen it. Lin Ming was not interested in the big wine vat of Kublai Khan, but Guan Xingquan asked: What jade?

"Nanyang Dushan jade, this will be a group of experts are still talking about where it is made, in fact, any Nanyang person who has dealt with jade can see the big jade sea at a glance, it is Nanyang Dushan jade.

It is also said that the 'Shan Shan' of the Great Jade Sea is because of the water on the other side of the Taiye, which is rare and strange!"

Hehe......

Specialists, the "experts" of these years are starting to be worthless!

I didn't think much about this strange combination, thinking that in the future, after having Caucasian puppies, I could get a few to go to the manor in Yan County, at least smarter than the Tibetan mastiff.

Zhang Nan feels good about Caucasian dogs, which is not the reason why the Caucasian dog bites the Tibetan mastiff that circulated on the Internet in his previous life, thinking that the Tibetan mastiff is worse than its descendants, just because Caucasian dogs can become border patrol dogs in East Germany and should be smart enough.

As for the unlucky Tibetan mastiff being bitten on the throat, it can only be said that it is more unlucky: holding the dog leash on both sides, an instant life and death fight, a little external cause may lead to accidental death.

Besides, it is not the Tibetans who raise it, and they don't know that the Tibetan mastiff has a natural defect: because of its strong body, it turns around more slowly, and the protection of its own neck is relatively poor.

The Tibetans in the pastoral areas know this shortcoming of the Tibetan mastiff, so they have solved this problem with a super simple method, at least in the 70s, when the Tibetan mastiff, snow leopards, and wild wolves were really needed for grazing, the Tibetans were still using that method.

Xiang Weirong told Zhang Nan: A piece of raw cowhide with a wide palm, nailed two circles of nails from the inside to the outside, and then put it on the mastiff's neck as a dog collar!

The Tibetan mastiff armed in this way......

Hey!

It is unlikely that the nine mastiffs will sink the aircraft carrier, and one mastiff fighting three wolves is definitely like playing!

You bite!

I'm afraid that you won't bite the most fragile and poorly protected neck of the Tibetan mastiff!

Bite it, it's absolutely sour, 100% like a husky and a crocodile biting a porcupine.

When the Tibetan mastiff that turns around slowly turns around, it will give you a big mouth, and the big snow leopard of two or three hundred catties can't carry it!

In addition to the zoo in the capital, there are obviously no snow leopards, and there are no wild wolves, otherwise Zhang Nan would like to put a "mace collar" on "Lord Belle", which is absolutely popular!

Well, the Great Caucasus, it looks like a Tibetan mastiff, descendant.

……

Baylor House is so big that the houses have been restored and rebuilt, but only some of the buildings on the middle road have been furnished inside.

With only 8 people, how big can you live?

Like the suite where Weng Qianhui lived, from the outside, it looked like the square of the few large rooms where Baylor lived at the beginning, which was antique.

As soon as you enter, the living room is placed with a full set of red sandalwood furniture in the Qing Dynasty, and even all the furnishings and porcelain are all Qianlong official kiln porcelain, and there is also an ink landscape of Shi Tao, a painter in the early Qing Dynasty, on the wall, with a huge size.

However, Weng Qianhui never received any guests in her suite, and even two of her friends at home would come to play, and the living room of this inner house was actually prepared for Zhang Nan in the future.

On one side of the living room is the dining room, which is also a full set of Qing Dynasty red sandalwood furniture: there is no Ming Dynasty Huanghuali, that is because the former Qing Dynasty Baylor Mansion used Ming Dynasty furniture......

The style of painting is wrong!

There is also a small kitchen, a full set of imported kitchenware, but it is generally not used, probably thinking that Zhang Nan can live here for a few days one day, and then the two of them will live a few meals as a small couple.

There are tableware in the cabinet, there is a set of modern Jingdezhen, and there is a set of blue and white from the Qianlong official kiln.

It is the Qianlong official kiln, plates, bowls, basins, spoons, saucers...... It's a lot, ten servings, and you can't even see the wear!

Oh, the chopsticks are new, or ordinary bamboo chopsticks, which are light and comfortable to use.

These are not Zhang Nan's ideas, they were arranged by Weng Yeming for his sister, thinking that such tableware should be used for eating on a set of red sandalwood double carved red sandalwood round tables in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, or on the mahogany eight immortal tables in the middle and late Qing Dynasty.

The suite has a full range of modern en-suite facilities and is attached to the master bedroom

The new American layout of the study room is that the bookshelf leaning against a red sandalwood on one wall is more eye-catching, and there are several books on modern enterprise management on it, some of which are still in English.

Because of the decoration style, at the beginning of the wall, Weng Yeming hung a landscape painting of Wen Zhengming for his sister, and let Weng Qianhui take it off and put it away, otherwise it looked a little awkward.

There were two small photo frames on the desk, and in one of them there were photos taken by her and Zhang Nan when they were in Xiangjiang, and they both smiled happily.

As for the other: a black-and-white photo, a group photo taken by a family of four in a photo studio when Weng Qianhui was still a student.

The bedroom is fully modern, the bed is 1.8 meters wide, the real "Simmons": Simmons, this does not mean that this is a spring mattress, but the brand of the bed and mattress is "Simmons", expensive!

Many people have always thought that Simmons is a mattress, with a spring on the inside and a sturdy cloth on the outside. In fact, Simmons is a person's surname, a brand, just because it is so famous that we call mattresses "Simmons".

Because of her work experience in a five-star hotel, Weng Qianhui likes modern Western-style bedrooms, which are the largest bedrooms in this Baylor Mansion, and unless you pay attention to the shape of the glass windows, Zhang Nan will never think that she is in a house built in the Qing Dynasty.

There should be a suspended ceiling above, the height of the room is less than three meters, and her woman doesn't like the feeling of a high roof outside.

Pale wooden floors, oak textured, and a thick Persian-style wool blanket in front of the bed.

A walk-in wardrobe is designed, with a wide light wood sliding door on one side of the wall, similar to the light wallpaper.

Very cozy,
