Chapter 661: The Pearl of the Marquis of Sui

After receiving a call from Feng Zhengsheng, the old couple arrived after a while. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mr. and Mrs. Feng raised a total of four children, three sons and daughters, and they came with Feng Zhengsheng's younger sister, Feng Zhengxue and Feng Qiufeng, the daughter of the eldest Feng Zhengwei.

After the group arrived, they were very happy to see Feng Zhenyan, who was alive and well, and they were all indignant when they learned that the problem was in the prescription.

Feng Luoming's expression was quite unhappy: "Wei Fengrong, this old immortal is too irresponsible, even if the Feng family was sorry for him before, and they compensated him through some channels a few years ago, what else does he want!"

Feng Zhengxue said indignantly: "I remember that the third brother should also give him a precious ancient book, there is a way to be entrusted by people, and the end of the world, is he doing this? And I remember that his son is also known as a benevolent doctor, such a person, what kind of benevolent person, didn't he slap himself in the face?"

Feng Zhengsheng waved his hand and said, "There's nothing to say about this, I'll meet them tomorrow and see what they say!"

"Then I'll go with me tomorrow!" Feng Qiufeng said.

Feng Zhengsheng said: "No need, it's not good for our family to go too much, so as not to make people think that our Feng family is oppressive with power, just have me and Zitao go over together." ”

Hearing Feng Zhengsheng mention Meng Zitao, everyone's attention turned to Meng Zitao again, because Meng Zitao was too young, even if there were facts to prove his medical skills, it still made them a little unbelievable, not to mention, Meng Zitao was still in the antique business, which felt even more strange.

Feng Luoming couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Meng, I don't know who your medical master is?"

Meng Zitao hurriedly said: "Old Feng, you can just call me Xiao Meng or Zitao, as for my medical skills, they are actually self-taught." ”

Meng Zitao's answer made everyone stunned, and even felt that Meng Zitao was not sincere, can Chinese medicine be so easy to learn by himself? If it is really so easy, then how can Chinese medicine be in the current situation?

Feng Zhengsheng helped Meng Zitao explain: "It's normal for you to think it's strange, but Zitao can never forget it, and he is smart, so of course he learns quickly." ”

"Ah, there are really people in this world who can't forget!" Feng Qiufeng looked at Meng Zitao in surprise.

Feng Luoming is well-informed in the end, not as strange as his granddaughter, and said: "Although it is rare to see people who never forget, it is not nothing, I have known two people who can never forget." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Meng Zitao and smiled: "Speaking of which, if you don't have such talent, you can't say it." ”

Meng Zitao smiled slightly and didn't say much.

At this time, Feng Qiufeng's eyes rolled and he said: "It's rare for a divine doctor to come over, help us take the pulse, treat the disease if you are sick, and prevent yourself if you are not sick." ”

"Xiaofeng, don't be so rude!" Feng Luoming reprimanded, he saw his eldest granddaughter since he was a child, how could he not see what Xiao Jiujiu she was fighting in her heart, in the end, he still didn't believe in Meng Zitao's medical skills.

"It's okay, I'll take the pulse for everyone. Meng Zitao didn't care about this, and he could just increase his experience.

Since Meng Zitao himself agreed, of course Feng Luoming would not say anything more.

Next, Meng Zitao took everyone's pulse one by one, Feng Luoming was in good health, and there was basically nothing wrong with him, but his wife's blood pressure was a little high, so Meng Zitao prescribed medicine, and was going to do another acupuncture later.

Feng Zhengxue's body is fine, but she doesn't sleep well, Meng Zitao told her a few tips, and she should be able to improve after a while. 、

As for Feng Qiufeng, after Meng Zitao helped her take her pulse, he prescribed a prescription for her.

Seeing this, Feng Qiufeng's expression was displeased: "You are talking nonsense, how can there be something wrong with my body?"

Meng Zitao smiled and said: "After taking the medicine I prescribed, you won't be so uncomfortable every month, of course, it doesn't matter if you don't take it, when you have a child, the situation will be greatly improved." ”

Feng Qiufeng understood what Meng Zitao was talking about as soon as he heard it, his pretty face turned slightly red, he grabbed the prescription, and muttered, "Just make it clear earlier." ”

Feng Zhengxue smiled and nodded on Feng Qiufeng's forehead: "Do you have a chance to let people go home?"

Everyone laughed one after another.

After Meng Zitao helped Mrs. Feng do acupuncture, and the effect was immediate, everyone no longer had doubts about Meng Zitao's medical skills, and their attitude towards Meng Zitao was a little polite.

In the evening, everyone took a car to a big hotel under the name of the Feng family, and when they walked into the hotel lobby, Meng Zitao met Feng Zhengsheng's eldest brother and second brother and sister-in-law.

Feng Zhengsheng made an introduction to Meng Zitao, and after everyone exchanged a few words, the general manager of the hotel took everyone to the private room.

On the way, the manager took the opportunity to give Meng Zitao a bronzing card, which was branded with the word VIP, and it was very textured when he got it in his hand.

The manager politely said to Meng Zitao: "Mr. Meng, this is our hotel's VIP card, in the future, you should spend here, you can keep accounts and settle at the end of the year, we will give you a discount." ”

"Okay, thanks. Meng Zitao put the card in his bag.

This is just a trivial matter, and it is nothing to him, he has come to Xijing a few times a year, and he doesn't plan to really come here to eat many times. Moreover, it is one thing for people to give him this respect, he can't really come here too often to take advantage, and he is not that kind of person.

Along the way, Feng Qiufeng talked about Meng Zitao's superb medical skills vividly, as if he had become a fan of Meng Zitao, which made Feng Zhengsheng's eldest brother and his wife feel a little weird, and they looked at Meng Zitao one after another, and felt that he was gentle and elegant, and he was the same age as his daughter, so he couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Feng Zhengsheng's eldest brother and sister-in-law are all characters who do when they think of it, and after everyone is seated, Feng Zhengsheng's sister-in-law smiled at Meng Zitao and asked, "Xiao Meng, I don't know if you have a girlfriend?"

Meng Zitao was slightly stunned, and immediately guessed the other party's thoughts, and hurriedly said: "I have a girlfriend and I'm ready to get engaged." ”

"Oh, that's it. Feng Zhengsheng's sister-in-law was a little disappointed, and a trace of loss flashed in Feng Qiufeng's eyes.

Feng Luoming also had a little regret in his heart, but he didn't think much about it, and said to his second son: "Zhengqin, did I bring the things I asked you to take?"

"Got it. As he spoke, Feng Zhengqin took out something wrapped in cloth and put it in front of his father.

Feng Luoming put the things in front of Meng Zitao and said, "Xiao Meng, you have helped my family so much, and I have nothing to thank you for, please accept this little gift." ”

Meng Zitao waved his hand: "Old Feng, you don't have to be so polite, Brother Feng and I are good friends, and I should do it." ”

Feng Luoming smiled: "He is him, I am me, you can take a look at the things first, and then talk about it, it is not a valuable thing." ”

Feng Zhengsheng also persuaded Meng Zitao to accept it.

"Then I'll take a look. ”

Meng Zitao was not easy to refuse, opened the package and took a look, and found that it was a carved lacquerware.

Due to the different lacquer methods, lacquerware is divided into flat lacquer, carved lacquer, carved filling, red picking, gold carving, lacquer filling, stacking red, screw inlay and so on. The carving and filling refers to the application of several layers of lacquer on the utensils, and when the lacquer is not dry, the carved pattern: dug into a concave shape, and then filled with various colors of lacquer. Because it is carved first and then filled, it is called carved filling. Carved filling is different from carved lacquer, and it is also different from filling lacquer.

Carved lacquer is to paint several layers of red lacquer or mixed with other colors of lacquer on the utensils, and carve patterns. Carved on the lacquer, so it is called carved lacquer. Lacquer filling is made of multicolored thick paint, which is piled up according to the different colors required by the pattern at a time, and then smoothed.

Technically speaking, it is easier to carve lacquer, and it is more difficult to carve and fill in two procedures. Filling the paint is also a two-step procedure, first piled up and then grinded. However, because the technical requirements of filling the paint are painted at one time, no decoration is allowed, and the painting is done in one stroke, which can not be painted, which is more difficult than carving lacquer.

So generally speaking, the artistic value of carved lacquerware is relatively high, and this carved lacquer box is like this.

This box is in the shape of a flower diamond, with a flat cover, a diamond-shaped outer drum in the abdomen, a button on the mother and a mother, and a high ring foot. The surface of the vessel is painted with vermilion lacquer, the lacquer color is dark red, and the halo is simple. Painted motifs and edging are painted with techniques such as lacquer and gilding. The swastika pattern is outlined with gold on the cover as a brocade ground, and the color lacquer is filled on it to draw hibiscus flowers, chrysanthemums, longevity stones, colorful butterflies and other animals and plants, forming auspicious decorations such as wealth and longevity, longevity and longevity.

The decoration of this box is delicate, full of interest, and full of artistic conception, with the charm of traditional Chinese landscape painting. In addition, the soles of the feet are engraved with gold "Ming Jiajing Year System", and the six-character italic style is recognized.

As soon as the thing came into his eyes, Meng Zitao knew that this lacquerware was a rare boutique, with a market value of about 300,000 yuan.

One is "Luo Xiaohua's Yaoxiang round ink", Luo Xiaohua is a famous ink-maker in the Ming Dynasty, his ink is made of tung oil soot, there is "solid as stone, the pattern is like a rhino, black as lacquer, a snail is worth ten thousand dollars" reputation, at that time some people were heavily invested in the purchase.

Don't look at this ink, it's only the size of a palm, but it's not easy to keep it intact until now, and it's worth about forty or fifty thousand.

Both things are deeply loved by Meng Zitao, and the other thing, which can only be described as a surprise, is a statue of Jianhua.

Jairus is the second son of the dragon, the leopard body and the head of the dragon, the personality is strong, brave and good at fighting, thirsty to kill and aggressive, always holding a sword in his mouth, glaring angrily, and is often carved on the hilt scabbard to increase his own powerful power.

The vividness of this statue carving, the key to the material it uses, Meng Zitao is very familiar, it is one of the statues of the nine sons of the dragon he has been looking for.

After carefully looking at these things, Meng Zitao said: "These three things are very good, but they are too valuable......

Feng Luoming interrupted him: "If you think you like it, don't say anything else." ”

Meng Zitao hesitated for a moment, and then didn't say anything against his will: "Okay, I'll take the things." ”

"That's right. Feng Luoming smiled heartily, and then asked the waiter to serve the food.

The dishes in this hotel are really good, although Meng Zitao feels that it is a little worse than the private restaurant he went to yesterday, but it is already quite rare.

At this time, Feng Zhengsheng pointed to a new dish in front of Meng Zitao and said, "Zitao, try this gourd chicken, which is made using ancient methods and is the signature dish here." ”

"Then I'll taste it. Meng Zitao picked up a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Gourd chicken is a traditional dish in Xijing. Authentic gourd chicken must be used in the south of Xicheng "Wa Chicken", this kind of chicken is raised for a year, the net weight is about 1000 grams, and the meat is fresh and tender. After three processes of cooking, steaming and frying, the finished product is known for its crispy skin and tender meat, fragrant and mellow taste, and is known as "the first taste in Guanzhong".

However, the birth of this gourd chicken is somewhat cruel. According to legend, gourd chicken began in the official kitchen of Shang Shuwei of the Tang Xuanzong Rite Department. Merriam-Webster was very particular about cooking, and he was extremely poor and extravagant, so he ordered the cook to cook the tender chicken, and the first chef fried it first and then boiled it, and Webster thought that the meat was too old, so he severely punished him with whipping; the second cook cooked it first and then fried it, and the chicken produced in this way was really delicious, but Merriam-Webster thought that the chicken was not formed and not good-looking, so he beat the cook to death.

It wasn't until the third chef that he learned the lessons of the first two chefs and tied up the chickens, which were then boiled and then fried. The chicken produced in this way is not only mellow and tender, but also resembles a gourd, and later generations will call it "gourd chicken".

Of course, it is not known whether gourd chicken was indeed born in this way, and people nowadays only need to know its deliciousness.

Speaking of which, Meng Zitao also tasted gourd chicken in a private restaurant yesterday, but the gourd chicken here is obviously better, the color is golden red, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, the fragrance is mellow, and the aftertaste is really endless when you eat it, and Meng Zitao even feels that he can't get tired of eating it every day.

Tasting delicious food and chatting about various interesting things, everyone enjoyed a dinner party.

After returning to the villa, Meng Zitao and Feng Zhengsheng chatted for a while, and when the time was almost up, Meng Zitao came to the arranged guest room.

After a little washing, Meng Zitao took out the jade carving.

After looking through it carefully, Meng Zitao found that except for a circular area at the bottom of the jade carving, which looked a little different, there was nothing strange about it, and it seemed that the thing was probably put in from there.

Taking out various gadgets from his bag, Meng Zitao was about to open the place, but after trying it, he found that the sealing was unusually hard, and the hardness was no worse than jade.

Meng Zitao used the ability obtained from Gao Gao to investigate deeply, but the result was that the seal was probably filled with jade powder mixed with some kind of firm glue, which was actually similar to the surrounding jade.

In this case, Meng Zitao had no choice but to use violent means, and little by little the carving tools dug up the seal.

It took a lot of time and energy, and the sealing place was finally cleaned up, and it was also a loss of Meng Zitao's physical perversion, otherwise it would not have been possible to do it in one go.

With a long sigh of relief, Meng Zitao then poured out a round bead about the size of a pigeon's egg, which was also sealed with a waxy substance, so it was inconspicuous. Of course, such a bead alone, if it is naturally formed, is already hard to find.

Meng Zitao carefully scraped off the wax on the outer layer of his nails, and when he saw the original appearance of the beads, he was immediately stunned.

The bead looked a little shiny, and the surface also exuded some dazzling brilliance, but because of the light, the light looked a little dim.

So, Meng Zitao immediately put the beads on the table, went to close the curtains, and turned off the lights, and in an instant, a piece of light like moonlight emanated from the beads, and Meng Zitao felt as if there was an extra bright moon in front of him, which was a completely different experience compared to his night pearl.

After a while, Meng Zitao's mood finally calmed down a bit, and he began to rummage through the memories of this jewel in his memory, combined with the jade carving, he immediately had a guess that this jewel should be the legendary Sui Marquis Pearl.

In the ancient history of our country, there are two treasures that are famous all over the world and must be fought for by the emperors of all dynasties, that is, the wall of the He clan and the pearl of the Marquis of Sui.

There is a detailed record of these two treasures in "Han Feizi": "The wall of the Heshi clan is not decorated with five cai, and the pearl of the Marquis of Sui is not decorated with silver yellow, and its quality is beautiful, and the thing is not enough to decorate." "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn Period: Guansheng Chapter" uses "Sui Zhu to play the sparrow" as a metaphor for the principle of overkill: "Now someone uses the pearl of the Sui Marquis to play the bird of a thousand people, why not?"

Every beautiful thing is accompanied by a moving story, and the wall of the He clan and the pearl of the Marquis of Sui are no exception. People may be familiar with the allusions to the wall of the Heshi, but little is known about the beautiful legend of the pearl of the Marquis of Sui.

According to legend, the Marquis of Sui in the Western Zhou Dynasty routinely went out to patrol the fiefdom. Traveling all the way to the mountains and rivers, this day to the place of slag, Sui Hou suddenly found a giant snake on the hillside, and was stopped and slashed. The serpent was dying from its injuries, but its two bright eyes were still bright.

Seeing that the snake was huge and extraordinary, and full of spirituality, the Marquis of Sui was moved by compassion and immediately ordered his followers to apply medicine to treat its wounds. After a while, the giant snake regained its strength, and it shook its huge and flexible body, and circled around the carriage of the Marquis of Sui three times, swimming straight towards the vast mountains and forests.

Not long after that, the giant snake that recovered from the injury turned into a teenager to repay the Sui Hou, the gift was a bead, this bead appeared particularly white and round, dazzling, close up like a crystal candle, far away like the moon on the sea, a look at it is a pearl.

It is said that after the news of the Marquis of Sui getting the jewel came out, it immediately aroused the coveting of the princes of various countries, and after an unknown contest, the Sui bead soon fell into the hands of King Wu of Chu. Later, the state of Qin destroyed the state of Chu, and Sui Zhu was again taken possession by Qin Shi Huang and regarded as a national treasure of the state of Qin. After the fall of Qin, the world was in turmoil, and Sui Zhu did not know what to do.
