"The things are all new, and there are a lot of utensils of the same variety, so they won't be the playthings of the 'Fengxiang Mansion owner's own collection. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In his time, the powerful merchants from Rongcheng, Shancheng and other places, as well as the local wealthy families of Suin, could have been buyers of these porcelain.

Previously, this 'Fengxianglou master' business must have done a lot of business, so he went to Jiangnan and Jiangxi Province with confidence, and worked tirelessly to buy Longquan celadon and Jingdezhen Qingbai porcelain, and on the way, he also managed to buy more than 10 pieces of white glaze printed peony pattern sunflower mouth bowl of Dingyao kiln and several green glaze grate flower ripple plates of Yaozhou kiln.

However, in the middle of this Fengxianglou master's rush back to Suin, the political situation in the Southern Song Dynasty changed drastically!

The good thing was bought with great difficulty, and to his surprise, his new product did not cause much of a sensation, and there were very few people who came to ask for the price!

Life is dying, who still buys luxury goods?

Due to the war, the porcelain of the owner of Fengxianglou never had a chance to be sold, and the Mongols came!

Before fleeing, he was worried about those precious porcelain, it was impossible to take them away, and it was even more impossible to leave them to the Mongolian army, and destroying them was like taking his own life!

There's only one way to think about it: bury them and let them see the light of day when things get better. ”

Zhang Nan was telling a story there, and Guan Xingquan was also listening to a story, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but interject: "That rape field was supposed to be farmland, and there wasn't even a brick nearby, how could there be buried?"

This Guan Xingquan can see it.

Of course, in the past thousand years, even if there were broken bricks and tiles in the past, they may have been buried deep in the ground by time, or dealt with by latecomers.

In ancient times, building materials were very valuable, and sometimes even tomb bricks would be used to build houses - this habit was there until after the liberation, if you don't believe it, go and see some old houses in the countryside that are not directly inhabited, warehouses and the like, and some bricks are even the age bricks of the tombs of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

In commune buildings such as the City Hall, the use of tomb bricks is even more common!

(Blood Bat found a large number of bricks from the Southern Liang period on the wall of an old house in a local village, and they would be in good condition for hundreds or even hundreds of dollars a piece in 11 years.) It's a pity that it was 15 years since I found out, and it was not very valuable, so I couldn't afford to lose money and tear down someone's yard. I would have been able to make a fortune a few years earlier, but it's a pity! Moreover, that yard was built by the Republic of China, and the bricks were obviously unearthed before the liberation, and the police generally did not care about private transactions in China. Of course, buy and sell the newly dug tomb bricks, then wait for the public meal!)

"I haven't said it yet, what's the hurry!"

Wrapping things up and putting them back in the cardboard box, the story continues: "He started out with the intention of burying it in his back garden, but after thinking about it, he changed his mind again.

The Mongolian army burned and looted everywhere they went, and Rongcheng was killed, how could the mansion of the owner of his Fengxiang Tower avoid the fate of being dug three feet into the ground?!

After weighing them repeatedly, he buried more than 1,000 treasures in a seemingly inconspicuous wasteland.

After fleeing from Sui'n's hometown, the owner of Fengxianglou never had a chance to come back, including all the insiders who died in the war. Secrets are gone forever with life, and Fengxiang Tower has long since become a pile of rubble, and these more than 1,000 treasures are left here. ”

"Good storytelling!"

After Zhang Nan finished the story of "Fengxianglou Qian Xin", he sat on the chair and said to Guan Xingquan: "You underestimate me too much for this one story." In fact, this is a story that is more in line with the taste of ordinary people, and for 'professional' people like us, the following story is more suitable. ”

"Tell me about it. ”

Zhang Nan walked to the window and said: "I can't remember if there is a Zhao family king here in the Southern Song Dynasty, but there will be one in the Northern Song Dynasty, it is the unlucky Song Huizong Zhao Ji, he has been the king of Sui N County." Later, as luck would have it, his elder brother Song Zhezong Zhao Xu died of illness at the age of twenty-four, and it was his turn to take the throne. ”

"This is not called good luck, it is estimated that it is still bad luck!" Guan Xingquan interjected: "Be his prince well, Zhao Ji may not die in the Five Kingdoms City." ”

"Awesome, Brother Guan, even the Five Kingdoms City knows!"

"Hehe, we were good students at the beginning. ”

Guan Xingquan was rarely stunned.

"This Song Huizong is also called the Daojun Emperor in history, that will n have a Guangli Temple founded in the Tang Dynasty is very famous, the temple name is still the Northern Song Dynasty Zhenzong Dazhong Xiangfu four years of the name, is the mountain that's 'Guangde Temple'. ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a temple on Wolong Mountain in the distance outside the window.

"I estimate that this Song Huizong was the king of Suining County in Suin, and after ascending the throne, he was grateful for the blessing of Master Cihang and made him the emperor, oh, it is the Bodhisattva of Guanzi.

It is likely that Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty ordered the kiln officials to fire a batch of fine porcelain products in Longquan, Jiangnan and Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province, and dedicated them to the throne of Cihang Dashi in Guangde Temple. Moreover, this practice of using imperial kiln porcelain to worship Cihang Master of Guangde Temple is likely to be inherited by later emperors of the Song Dynasty as a royal practice.

When Song Xiaozong became the emperor, he once conferred the title of the founding patriarch of Guangde Temple, Keyou Zen Master, as 'Yuanjue Hui Ying Cigan Master', and it is estimated that a batch of fine porcelain was also fired, and it was given to Sui N Guangde Temple again.

At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Mongol army invaded Xichuan, and the Mongolian and Song armies fought in Xichuan for a long time. In order to avoid the destruction of the war, these porcelain, together with the sacrificial bronze vessels, were buried underground by the monks of Guangde Temple, so that these treasures were safe and sound in the war.

The monks would not bury them in the monastery, and the burial site may be all the fields of the temple, but the monks were also Song people, and they did not survive in the end.

In this way, those dragon and phoenix patterns can be reasonably explained. ”

When Guan Xingquan heard this, he smiled and said, "This story is more reasonable than the one just now." It's a bit amazing, history is so clear!"

"Haha, that's right, Jia Nan likes to listen to my stories the most. Actually, Brother Guan, there is one last story!

There are also many fine Song porcelain products here for sacrificial and ceremonial furnishings, such as 'Gui-style furnace', 'Mustache furnace', 'Ding furnace', including the 'Cong-style bottle', which are all imitation bronze ritual vessels.

There are also those plates, bowls, and cups that seem to be daily practical utensils, but in fact, many of them are carved with lotus petal pattern decoration on the surface, which has an indissoluble relationship with the prosperity of religion at that time.

After the late Northern Song Dynasty, the imperial court advocated science, and the style of worshipping antiquities prevailed, and a kind of elegant worship of antiquities arose among the literati and scholars and the upper class.

In line with this trend of the times, Longquan kiln created and fired a lot of porcelain with antique bronze and jade styles. From the analysis of this batch of porcelain, most of them are representative works of Longquan celadon, and they will not be used by ordinary people.

Moreover, judging from this scale and the number of single-variety porcelain, it is not possible that it is owned by wealthy merchants and officials, and the most likely is that the government purchased it centrally and used it as a ritual vessel for sacrificial activities during the Spring and Autumn Festival or major festivals. ”

There are several blue-glazed amphorae alone, who puts so many at home?

"And Brother Guan, this sacrificial item can't be used a few times a year, and it's still new after decades of use.

As for those dragon and phoenix pattern artifacts, they may still be given by the emperor.

Then the Mongols came, and then, and so on, there was no more. ”

......

The two of them waited for an extra day in the hotel, and then Xiang Weirong arrived in Suining in a brand-new Ford business car. It took more than a day longer than originally planned - I had a road collapse in the middle of the road, and I waited for almost two days!

It is difficult to go to the blue sky on the Shu Road, and it is normal to encounter this situation when entering and leaving the Sichuan.

The people and vehicles are here, it's time to withdraw!
