Chapter 263: Jade Worker Wang Sun Shou

Tile-shaped buttons and turtle-shaped buttons are common buttons from the Warring States period to the Qin and Han dynasties, regardless of official seals and private seals.

Although the shape of these two copper seals is different, the size is about the same, and the turtle-shaped button can be slightly larger. It's all square-bottomed.

At the same time, they are also mottled with patina, which is obviously an excavation. Judging comprehensively, the unearthed time will not be short, nor will it be too long, and it will be similar in the late Qing Dynasty. Combined with the fact that this is something of the Tan family, this seems to be the right point.

The inscription of the copper seal is still recognizable.

Yu Yao first picked up the copper seal of the tile-shaped button, flipped through the seal, and it was three words:

Jade Gongshou.

It looks like an official seal.

Jade workers are naturally not official positions, but if they are for the official family or even the royal family, their status is still different from that of civilians. Such a copper seal, strictly speaking, is not an official seal, but it will not be used privately, it should be used during the treatment of jade, such as when presenting some situations of jade treatment with pen and ink, the payment is sealed.

Judging from this copper seal, this is a jade worker named "Shou" in the Qin Dynasty.

Putting down the tile-shaped button copper seal, Yu Yao picked up the turtle-shaped button copper seal again.

The inscription on this is four words, Yu Yao couldn't help but be surprised, because these four words are:

Wang Sun and the people.

Among them, the word "and the public" is also on the small jade seal of the same material that Cai Pengxi showed him!

At that time, Yu Yao's judgment was that it might be a private seal.

And that small jade seal, and this turtle-shaped button bronze seal, are of the same year, both of which are from the Qin Dynasty!

Wang Sun is a surname. In the Zhou Dynasty, the grandson of the king of Zhou was an official in the vassal state, and he was called Wang Sun, and slowly, some descendants took another name as a surname. This surname is extremely rare now, because after the Ming Dynasty, Wang Sun's surname was generally changed to "Wang" or "Sun".

The "Hezhong" that followed "Wang Sun" may be the name, and at that time the name and the word were not the same thing, maybe it was the name, maybe it was the word.

"These two seals are one person!" Wu Chen said when he saw that Yu Yao had finished reading it.

"Yu Gongshou, is Wang Sun Shou, is Wang Sun and the others?" Yu Yao understood.

"Wang Sunshou, the word and the public, the first jade worker in Xianyang in the Qin Dynasty, according to various historical materials and archaeological discoveries, he is most likely to carve the jade seal of the country!" Wu Chen introduced.

"He's too bold!" Yu Yao screamed in his heart!

Because he immediately thought that the small piece of jade used in the small jade seal was probably left by Wang Sunshou privately when he carved the jade seal of the country!

Not only left, but also engraved his own word "and the public". Although he never left his full name, he secretly collected the leftovers of the jade seal of the country, and it was also a matter of losing his head!

Wu Chen looked at Yu Yao and saw that Yu Yao didn't speak, so he continued, "Wang Sunshou's tomb was stolen and excavated in the late Qing Dynasty, not near Xianyang, but in a certain county in the northwest of the Central Plains; We don't have first-hand information about the specific situation of the tomb, but according to some collected accounts, there were many groups of tomb robbers at that time, and there were conflicts, because there were a lot of Hetian jade artifacts in the tomb. And these two copper seals are likely to come out of the tomb. ”

Yu Yao secretly thought, that little jade man, Chang Huanxi also said that it was dug up somewhere in the northwest of Central Plains Province, could it be that it was also in the tomb of Wang Sunshou? Because of the chaos and scramble at that time, the little jade man was lost and buried, and it was not dug up again until recently?

If this is the case, then the jade material left by Wang Sunshou should be two small pieces, one made into a small jade seal, and the other into a small jade figure.

At the same time, this little jade seal must have been dropped, and the missing corner was not lost. It's hard to judge when it fell, but the missing corner and the main body were finally obtained by different people, and the final owners were Tan Rusu's father and Lang Xiankun.

"Do you have any other jade artifacts in Wang Sunshou's tomb now?" asked Yu Yao.

"Not a single one. It is said that among Wang Sunshou's hand bones, one jade in one hand is the rarest, but we don't know the specific flow. Wu Chen continued, "Now this small jade piece may come from one of the jade objects, if this hypothesis is true, it is Wang Sunshou who secretly hid two small pieces of jade!"

Yu Yao thought for a moment and decided to tell the story of Xiao Yuyin and Xiao Yuren.

When he said it, Xiao Yuren was blunt. But Cai Pengxi's little jade seal, he didn't name who it was, he only said that he knew such a thing, and other people's things couldn't be the master.

Yang Sihai and Wu Chen were both taken aback.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Yang Sihai blurted out.

"Now, the rhythm is just right. Yu Yao said, and directly took out a small brocade box from his body.

Yang Sihai immediately opened it, and it was a little jade man with the same jade quality!

"If that's the case, then it's going to be right!" Wu Chen said excitedly, "In Wang Sunshou's tomb, among the bones and hands, there must be a small jade seal in one hand and a small jade in the other! Because of the competition of tomb robbers, the little jade man was lost and buried, and only the small jade seal flowed out. Although the little jade seal was dropped, the missing corner was not lost! The Tan family did not get the main body of the jade seal, but they got the missing corner! At the same time, there are also a series of clues such as the bronze seal to inherit the jade seal!"

Yu Yao nodded, but frowned again, "Why do I feel a little bit like a sheep?"

Yang Sihai smiled, "You kid, can we still rob your little jade man?!"

Yu Yao also smiled, "This is what you said, I didn't say it explicitly." ”

"You, a distinguished expert, are really right!" Yang Sihai said, "Don't worry, yours is still yours." However, it is best to requisition it temporarily, and besides, can you talk to the holder of the small jade seal, and we will also requisition?"

"It's okay to requisition, otherwise I wouldn't have taken it out. I can also ask about the bearer of the small jade seal. But there is one point, when will it be requisitioned? You can't find the heirloom jade seal and return it, right? If you can't find it in thirty or fifty years, won't it become that it is not ours?"

Cai Pengxi has long said that relying on the Special Cultural Relics Investigation Bureau is the most likely way to figure out all the problems. Yu Yao knew that he would not oppose the expropriation, and even if he knew the origin, he would say it. It's just that he really doesn't know how Lang Xiankun got it.

Looking at it now, the process that Lang Xiankun got is no longer important.

Yang Sihai responded, "In this way, the little jade seal and the little jade people, after we collect the requisition, we will return the same one after a week, but we must keep the same, and the time may be a little longer." It's hard to say how long it will be, but we have regulations that if the deadline is overdue for two years, everyone can apply for repatriation. ”

When Yu Yao heard this, he smiled, "Yang Ju, I am very satisfied with this answer." In addition, I am in charge, the little jade people are left for you to requisition for a long time, and after a week, the little jade seal and the small jade block will be retrieved together!"

The little jade man is his own thing, and of course he can call the shots. The small jade seal is a relic of Lang Xiankun, if it is just to fill the missing corner, so that the talented Peng Xi can be preserved together, Lang Xiankun has knowledge under the spring, it should make up for a regret, and the broken small jade seal can be "broken and reunited".
