Chapter 501: The Jade Seal
"Then thank you, when the time comes, I may have to trouble you to help deal with this batch of things. Li Handa breathed a sigh of relief, with the help of professionals, it was much easier, and it was easy to bargain if the truth and value were clear.
When Liu Ming heard Li Han say this, his eyes lit up, and he asked with some excitement. "This is a good thing, don't you plan to collect it?" "At my level, where do I understand this, besides, it's enough to collect one or two pieces, so much can't be used." Li Han thought that he would be happy to keep one or two for his father.
"Well, if these things are true, I'll take them for you. Liu Ming was a little excited, these things are not something you can definitely buy if you have money, you have a few of these things in your hand, you have all the face, and the old man of your own family has one in his hand, and he doesn't give it if he wants to see it. Liu Ming couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart, and when he got four or five of them, he brought them to the old man when he came, and he was happy when he thought about it.
Li Han was speechless, this person's business is too extensive. "What kind of business are you still doing this?" "What kind of business, such a good thing, I don't plan to buy it, I tell you, I use it as a family heirloom, it's a pity that these foreigners have good things in their hands, and foreigners don't understand." ”
Liu Ming didn't notice Jennifer and Lingna looking at each other angrily when he spoke, and Jennifer and Lingna's Chinese proficiency had increased greatly recently. "Let me tell you, there is a lot of culture and stories in the Qianlong Jade Seal, but nothing else is enough to talk about the first half of the month just the twenty-five treasures of Qianlong. ”
Li Han really hadn't heard about the twenty-five treasures of Qianlong. "Tell me, what are these Qianlong Twenty-five Treasures?"
Liu Ming smiled quite proudly. That's a long story. "Uncle Liu Ming, say it, Dudu also listens. I don't know when, four little fat yellow ducks gathered around Liu Ming, Dudu, Baobao, Maria, and Jina. "None of the uncles spoke English. "Hmm. Uncle, you speak English, Sister Maria and Sister Gina don't understand. ”
Liu Ming glanced at Li Han and was quite proud. "Okay, uncle speaks English. "Don't be verbose, talk about it quickly, while there is still some time before eating. Li Han was also anxious. Liu Ming snorted, ignoring the envious and jealous Comrade Li Han.
A group of villains were all focused on riding the yellow duck car, either raising their heads, or tilting their little heads, but their eyes all fell on Liu Ming. "Then let's talk about Qianlong first. Qianlong is the fourth emperor of the Manchu people, the inheritor and founder of the prosperous Kangqian era, we don't count these. Not to mention the identity of the emperor, Lord Qianlong can also be regarded as one of the most blessed figures in history, and the longevity alone is enough to be envied and envied in ancient times. Speaking of blessings, Qianlong was quite liked by his grandfather Kangxi and father Yongzheng all his life, and he was carefree all his life, and he was the Taiping Emperor for 60 years and a few months, and fought several battles. After killing Geerdan, there are a few more strokes in martial arts, although Geerdan was crippled by his grandfather and father. The entire Qianlong Dynasty, although there were no fatal external troubles. even in Qianlong's later years, he proclaimed himself a perfect old man. Ten perfect martial arts and ten perfect words, these things, not good, exaggerated. However, there is probably no objection to this perfect blessing. When Qianlong was born, there was "Qianlong Treasure" among the people. Qianlong money, ten thousand years", the elderly still wear a lot of Qianlong money to seek family peace and smoothness. There is a saying in the Beijing and Tianjin generation that "the old man will not fall on his heels with Qianlong's money", and these are all pinning on the good wishes of some ordinary people, hoping to borrow Qianlong's blessings. ”
Doodoo blinked, big eyes. "Uncle, what is Qianlong Bao, Dudu also wants it. "Hehe, that uncle will help Dudu bring some when he returns to China next time, do you want to baby." Liu Ming said with a smile. "Well, the baby wants it too, uncle is the best. ”
The baby decisively slapped the horse, and the two villains, Jina and Maria, were not in good shape, but Liu Ming was happy at this time and didn't take it to heart. "Okay, Uncle will bring you more. "Thank you, uncle. Dudu immediately took the other three friends to thank him.
Li Han sat on the side and snorted. "Let's talk about the twenty-five treasures of Qianlong. Liu Ming glanced at Li Han and shook his head slightly, annoying Li Han very upset. "Really, if you don't explain Qianlong clearly, it's not interesting to say twenty-five treasures, this is culture, let the children know it clearly. ”
Jennifer and Lena nodded in agreement. "Ming, that's right. Lena said with a smile, as if deliberately, a smile appeared on the corner of Jennifer's mouth. "Well, let's not talk about it yet. "I'm a little thirsty. "Baby helps uncle pour water. ”
Dudu waved his little hand. "Uncle eat the fruit, Dudu will help you get it." "A few villains circled, poured water, took fruits, and sent snacks, Li Han was jealous and hateful, and he would read more history in the future, and read less Taoist books.
was so depressed, Li Han glanced at himself with Liu Ming on his face smug, laughing, and really wanted to kick this guy away. "Well, the fruit is really good, the tea is delicious, and the snacks are delicious. "Uncle, tell the story. ”
Liu Ming continued. "Let's talk about the mystery of Qianlong's life experience first. Liu Ming processed the story of Qianlong out of Haining's Chen family, and said it very wonderfully, and he clapped his hands from time to time, but in the end, he completely joked that Qianlong was close to magical martial arts and various encounter plots, Li Han was a little suspicious that this guy was not filming a TV series. Finally, Liu Ming said with a smile. "It's just a small story, it's not clear whether it's true or not, historians think it's ridiculous, but when it comes to it, there is a prototype for it. This woman and Qianlong's mother are both Niu Hulu, the daughter of Turge, and the Fujin of Nikan, the king of the county. This woman couldn't have children because she couldn't have children, so she used her mother's child to take the gong, and later the trick was exposed, and the capital was in an uproar, which can be regarded as a sensational lace news at that time. ”
Liu Ming then told some of Qianlong's life, stories, hobbies, etc., and added some small stories, and a few little guys didn't even forget to ask when they were eating, and Qianlong's small story of going down to the south of the Yangtze River, Tiffany and Howell also joined in.
After dinner, Jennifer and Ling Na were not in a hurry to leave, Liu Ming's storytelling level was really much higher than Li Han's, and the villains in the family gathered around Liu Ming as soon as they cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks. Liu Ming finished the story and finally said. "Qianlong is a good emperor in terms of private morality, he loves to play, he plays at a very high level, loves jade, jade collection exceeds ancient and modern China and foreign countries, loves face, loves pomp, thousands of longevity feasts, rewards silver medals and silver ingots, and the full banquet of the Manchu and Han dynasties. Emphasis on Sinology. I like poetry, calligraphy and painting, and of course there are many folk romances, but it is really not absurd, and the selection of songs and colors is not frequent, and he is also more diligent in the government. Although the southern tour cost money, it also did some good things for the local people in the places he went. Compared with great emperors such as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Qianlong is inferior in vision and mind, but in general. He still meets the standards of a "good emperor" in feudal society. ”
Liu Ming said later, several villains don't quite understand, but the story in front is good. Speaking of the twenty-five treasures of Qianlong, I have to say that the Qianlong Dynasty was rich in the early and middle periods, and his wealth was equivalent to one-third of the world, or even more. ”
Jennifer and Lena don't know much about this history, but a country is equivalent to one-third of the world's wealth, and it belongs to one person. Just think about it, if all the wealth of the United States is attributed to one person, although it is impossible to use it all, but so much wealth, only one-third. Even one percent is stunning. At this time, Liu Ming was angry at the wonderful and gorgeous language skills of the story, and Zhengse said, "Before Qianlong, the exact number of imperial treasures was generally not specified. The early years of Qianlong. The seals that can be called the national imperial treasure have reached as many as 29 kinds and 39 squares, and the use is unknown due to the inaccurate records of relevant documents. There are many misunderstandings and confusion. Because of this, in the eleventh year of Qianlong, Emperor Qianlong re-examined the imperial treasures of the previous emperors, set their total number at 25 squares, and specified in detail the scope of their respective uses. These 25 imperial treasures are: the treasure of the Qing Dynasty, the treasure of the emperor, the treasure of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the treasure of the emperor, the treasure of the emperor's relatives, the treasure of the emperor's relatives, the treasure of the emperor's line, the treasure of the emperor's letter, the treasure of the son of heaven, the treasure of the Son of Heaven, the treasure of respecting the heavens and the people, the treasure of the edict, the treasure of the edict, the treasure of the training, the treasure of the virtue, the seal of the Qinwen, the treasure of the seal of the scriptures and history, the treasure of patrolling the world, the treasure of retribution and peace of the people, the treasure of the six divisions, the treasure of the nation, the treasure of the people, and the treasure of Guangyun. The rearranged Twenty-five Treasures were each useful and gathered together to represent all aspects of the Emperor's exercise of the supreme power of the state.
In the 11th year of Qianlong, the treasure of the imperial treasure was determined, except for the green jade "Emperor's Treasure" which was written in Manchu script, and the rest were all written in Manchu script and Chinese seal script. In the thirteenth year of Qianlong, he created the Manchu seal law. In order to harmonize the Manchu and Chinese characters on the imperial treasures, Emperor Qianlong issued a special decree: in addition to the "treasure of the Qing Dynasty", "the treasure of the emperor Fengtian", "the treasure of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty", and the four treasures of the "emperor's treasure" of the green jade have been used before the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and "it is not suitable to be light", the remaining 21 treasures will be re-engraved, and all the Manchu characters in them will be changed to seal script.
Twenty-five treasures are usually hidden in the treasure cup of the Jiaotai Hall of the Forbidden City, one treasure and one treasure. The treasure is two-fold, both of which are made of wood, and the production is exquisite. The treasure is placed on the wooden table, and the yellow satin cover is embroidered with dragon patterns, which are arranged on the left and right of the throne.
The texture of the twenty-five treasures has gold, jade, sandalwood, and the seal has the dragon type, the coiling dragon, the squatting dragon type, the carving is exquisite, and it is also the cultural relics of the code with important historical value. ”
Li Han asked a little puzzled. "Even so, could it be that Jeffrey's seven jade seals belong to them, and they can't be within twenty-five treasures. "No, in the Qianlong Dynasty, Qianlong alone owned more than 1,800 light jade seals and treasure seals. ”
Li Han became more and more puzzled, the emperor had so many jade seals. "It's not a mess, it's too strange to take the holy decree to cover the jade seal. "Each has its own use, you don't have to worry about this, how many people have checked, and each jade seal has a special person to take care of it, the person in charge is not just a single person, and most of the fake holy decrees on the film and television dramas used are fake. The decree is not written down casually, it needs to be kept on file, backed up, and it needs to be passed through the administrative department, and the number of steps is beyond imagination. ”
Liu Ming didn't know much, and even so, at least he knew what a joke it was to fake the Holy Decree. "No wonder, these jade seals have different sizes and different prices, right?" asked Li Han.
"Of course, a material problem, white jade and green jade, black jade, some printed stones, Tianhuang, chicken blood materials, different, there are differences in price, modeling, etc., this depends on the specifics, cheaper millions, more than 10 million, hundreds of millions. Liu Ming usually doesn't know much about these, but his old man has a tens of millions of imperial treasure seals, and he likes them very much.
Li Han sighed. "Didn't you say that there is a jade seal of the country?" "Hehe, that thing, even Qianlong himself said that it was fake, of course, even if it is fake, the quality, size, and meaning of the light and jade are not comparable to other jade seals, and the starting price of hundreds of millions or billions is out.
