Chapter 590: Yellow Cat Neck Hanging White Jade Pendant

The business card that Xiao Ying gave him was from the "Yinqi" studio, which was originally the contact information for the outside world.

When the two of them were sent out of the store and waved goodbye, the shopkeeper suddenly slapped his head and said to Yu Yao, "Brother, do you like porcelain?" ”

Yu Yao muttered, "We don't have much time today, if we follow you again, I'm afraid it will delay a lot of work." ”

"In that case, how long are you going to go shopping?"

"Before dinner. ”

"Then I'll call my friend, and if he says he can bring it over before dinner, then I'll call Master Xiao again, and if not, I won't bother you, just leave." ”

"Boss, you're doing things properly, okay. Yu Yao nodded, "But the ugly words are ahead, tossing him back and forth, if we don't look down on ······"

"They are all people who understand, how can there be a business that can be done with pen and pen? Without running errands and negotiating, it is impossible. ”

"Okay, that's trouble. ”

"No trouble, no trouble, walk slowly. ”

The two of them left the shop and continued to wander forward.

There was a small long table in front of the shop, attached to the wall, and some small jade pieces were placed on it.

Among the antiques, Xiao Ying's interest in ancient jade is relatively large, jade can be spiritual, and the various breaths of ancient jade are also worth studying.

"This is from the Qin Dynasty, right?" Xiao Ying picked up a little jade figure. This little jade man, Xiao Ying did not sense the aura, but only roughly judged from the appearance.

Because the face of this little jade man is too similar to the terracotta warriors, and the bun is crooked to the right, and many of the terracotta warriors and horses have the same hairstyle.

"Look, there are several of them in this stall!" Yu Yao smiled. Because there was a woman who looked like a proprietress sitting at the door, Yu Yao couldn't say too much.

"Hmm. Let's go. Xiao Ying understood. In this way, it is all imitation.

After taking two more steps forward, Xiao Ying suddenly said, "There's something very strange. ”

"What's the matter? Do you think this little jade man has a year?" Yu Yao scratched his head, and said in his heart, I see that it is obviously something that has been newly made in the past two years.

"It's not. I mean, the little jade man's hair bun, you see, the Warring States before the Qin Dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty after the Qin Dynasty, the Central Plains men's hair bun is not always centered? Why are the terracotta warriors and horses, and this kind of little jade people, the bun is crooked to the right?"

"Well, this is a popular bun from the late Qin Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty, but it's just popular, so it's not for everyone. Yu Yao thought for a while, "This matter may have something to do with Qin Shi Huang's grandmother?"

"Mi Yue?" Xiao Ying was stunned.

"It should be said that it is the prototype of Miyue. The wife of King Qin Huiwen, the wife of King Qin Zhaoxiang, and the grandmother of Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng. ”

"I'm a little interested in that. ”

Yu Yao lowered his head and lit a cigarette, "This is all my speculation, not necessarily ······accurate."

The ancients adhered to the principle of "body hair and skin, and received the parents", basically without a haircut for a lifetime, so the Qing Dynasty asked the Han people to shave most of their hair and change it into a full hairstyle, so that there was a confrontation of "keeping the head without leaving the hair, leaving the hair without leaving the head".

Since the hair is long, it will become a cloak without a bun. The form of this man's bun is generally centered; the hair bun of the Qin people was also centered most of the time during the Warring States Period; and the countries in the Central Plains are basically centered.

However, "the Han people wear a bun in the middle, and the natives wear a bun in the right." ”

In other words, this hair bun shape tilted to the right is the shape of the "local people".

The so-called "local people" during the Warring States period roughly referred to people outside the Central Plains. For example, the southwest area also included part of the Chu State at that time.

"Yes, Mi Yue is a native of Chu. Xiao Ying nodded.

"I studied archaeology, so I remember very well that there was an excavation of the tomb of the Chu people surnamed Mi, and I also found terracotta figurines with crooked buns. Yu Yao said, "Chu is adjacent to the southwest, and many people are actually descendants of some ethnic groups in the southwest. ”

The surname Mi is the surname of the Chu people, and it may also be a descendant of a certain ethnic group in the southwest, so this hairstyle will be continued. And the promotion of this crooked hairstyle, the Mi family should have played a very important role.

The so-called Miyue is not only the queen of King Qin Huiwen, but also after the death of King Qin Huiwen, as the empress dowager of Qin Xuan, she has also been in power for a short time.

In the excavation of the remains of Afang Palace, the inscription in the shape of the word "Mi" was also found, as well as the related cylinder tiles.

Afang Palace was built by King Qin Huiwen, but he was killed before it was built, and the subsequent construction was probably presided over by the Empress Dowager Qin Xuan.

Therefore, from the late Qin Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty, the popular hairstyle with crooked buns should have something to do with the Empress Dowager Qin Xuan. At the very least, it should be the foundation she laid from the state of Chu to the state of Qin.

"You can!" Xiao Ying couldn't help but smile after hearing this.

"Spend your time and talk about things. ”

The two of them walked around while talking, and they didn't look at anything anymore, and they saw that they walked to the end of the corridor on the second floor, and there was a very small door, but there was a lot of contrast with the name "Dafeng Hall".

"Let's go in and have a look. Yu Yao smiled.

When I entered the store, I saw that it was very messy, and a young man with a chicken nest head was sitting on a chair behind the counter, playing a game with his mobile phone, and kept muttering. Listening to his muttering movements, he should be playing king pesticides.

"Is the boss there?" Yu Yao stepped forward and asked.

"I am, you two just look!" the young man rolled his eyelids, glanced at the two of them, and continued to play.

When Yu Yao saw it, he didn't say anything more, and looked at it in the messy store.

In front of a shelf, Yu Yao was looking at two pieces of porcelain, and suddenly from a pile of old books on the top of the shelf, a big yellow cat came down!

Yu Yao hurriedly dodged, but he didn't touch it, and after the big yellow cat landed, he actually crawled into an old bamboo basket at Yu Yao's feet and lay down.

"I said, boss, you have a cat in this antique shop, and you're not afraid that he will destroy things?" Yu Yao couldn't help shouting to the young man.

"It's okay, it's very sensible to get rich. You look at yours, don't take care of it. ”

When Yu Yao heard this, he couldn't help but glance at this yellow cat called Facai again. At this time, Fa Cai was lying on his back, as if he was about to sleep, but Yu Yao found that on the cat's neck, there was actually a white jade pendant hanging with a red rope, which seemed to be a jade piece from the Western Han Dynasty from the perspective of light.

At a glance, you can roughly have a date according to the light perception of the jade, which is actually not magical.

The so-called difficult people will not, and those who will will not be difficult.

Light perception is an important factor in the identification of ancient jade. For example, the jade of the Warring States period and the jade of the Western Han Dynasty have a very similar light sense, both are highlights, but there are still differences. The glass highlight of the jade of the Warring States period is a bit hard and the reflection is stronger, and in the Western Han Dynasty, the glass highlight has converged, and there is a feeling of ice highlight.

Yu Yao couldn't help but squat down and took a closer look at the jade pendant.
