[Today's second update!Ask for a genuine subscription、Monthly pass!Thank you to the beautiful deputy moderator Pistachio fruit ten thousand rewards!Moved to cry......]

Liu Ruihua shook his head and said, "That's all artistic creation! There are many spoofs." In fact, according to historical research, Tang Bohu seems to have had 3 wives, and the last one is called 'Jiuniang', so people think that Tang Bohu has many wives. Think about it, how can he be so poor and can afford to support so many wives?"

Liu Xiuting nodded and asked, "Just now I said that we were going to see the "Empty Mountain Long Howling Picture Scroll"...... Do you know this painting?"

Liu Ruihua really knows a little, but only a little...... He smiled bitterly and said, "I don't dare to talk nonsense about this, Cai Zhuoyan must know." ”

Cai Zhuoyan did not keep a low profile at this time, and said: "This painting is said to have been collected by a prince in the Qing Dynasty, and it is said to be very precious. Tang Bohu made a living by selling paintings...... It is estimated that there will be no less of his authentic works. But this painting "Empty Mountain Long Howling Picture Scroll" should be more influential. ”

Coming to the VIP area, Vice President Li turned around and said, "Everyone, please look...... This is Tang Bohu's true handiwork, "Empty Mountain Long Howling Picture Scroll", ......"

Seeing that Liu Ruihua, Cai Zhuoyan, and Shangguan Fengyun didn't seem to know much about this painting, Vice President Li introduced again: "This painting is on paper, ink pen, 53 cm in length and 29.5 cm in width...... Please see, the right side of this painting left the handwriting of 'Jiaqing nine years old Jiazi August Fengsheng Zi Zang Yi Jin Zhai Chen Yong Ying Mu Cheng', indicating that this painting was once collected by Prince Yong Cheng of the Qing Dynasty. ”

Cai Zhuoyan looked at this painting carefully, and then exclaimed: "Yes, this painting should be more than 500 years old, and it is the true work of Tang Bohu!"

Vice President Li nodded and said, "This has been identified by calligraphers and painters of all generations, and it can't be faked. ”

Cai Zhuoyan said again: "However, although the painting collected by Brother Shangguan may be a fake, the painting is excellent. It's also rare. ”

Shangguan Fengyun smiled: "Thank you for your comfort...... Otherwise, I'd die of misfit!"

"Hmph......" There were several famous calligraphers and painters next to him who couldn't help but hum when they saw Cai Zhuoyan commenting like this. It's just that they are all people with identity and age, so naturally they won't criticize Cai Zhuoyan in front of so many people. Visitors from Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan were also a little skeptical. Cai Zhuoyan dared to identify these national treasures at such a young age?

Vice President Li looked at those people and was a little unhappy in his heart. Anyway. Cai Zhuoyan was invited by him. Vice President Li is now more and more impressed by Cai Zhuoyan, because Cai Zhuoyan's views are basically the same as his, don't forget, Cai Zhuoyan is just a visitor!

Next, Vice President Li pointed to the heavily guarded booth next to him and said, "This is a famous calligraphy booth......

Cai Zhuoyan walked over slowly, and suddenly she pointed to a book and smiled: "This ...... I've seen this calligraphy!"

Liu Ruihua was puzzled: "Have you seen it?

Cai Zhuoyan looked at the surrounding situation and whispered to Liu Ruihua: "This "Orchid Pavilion Preface" used to be in ...... I've done it in my study, I've touched it with my own hands, you know?"

"What? you...... Liu Ruihua was stunned! He looked at the incomparably precious calligraphy work again and said in surprise: "No, is it? This is Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface"! Although it is not Wang Xizhi's authentic handwriting. But it seems to be a copy of a famous calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also extremely valuable! How could it come to your room? Have you touched it and identified it?"

Cai Zhuoyan smiled: "Of course, it was identified by my grandfather, I like this more, so I am more attentive." This calligraphy was damaged by my grandfather...... You see, it's the faint dot on the far right. My grandfather said that this may be the candle marks left by the ancients when they were watching the paintings with candles, and it is very likely that they were burned by candles. ”

"Huh?" Liu Ruihua was dumbfounded. "Who is your grandfather?" Liu Ruihua swallowed.

"Confidentiality. Cai Zhuoyan said with a smile.

Liu Ruihua rolled his eyes.

Then Liu Ruihua carefully observed the calligraphy. Sure enough, I found that there was a small trace of being burned in the lower right corner of this "Orchid Pavilion Preface", of course, it was processed. If it is not clear so. It is not known how this mark was made, and one might think that it was a special mark made by collectors throughout the ages. No one would think that this "Orchid Pavilion Preface" was almost burned by the ancients!

Vice President Li saw Cai Zhuoyan pointing to a "Orchid Pavilion Preface" and Liu Ruihua whispering...... He came over and said: "The Orchid Pavilion Preface is written by the famous calligrapher Wang Xizhi, and has been praised by the calligraphers of all dynasties as "the first line of calligraphy in the world"! Of course, it does not matter whether it is the first or not! The important thing is that the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" is indeed a rare calligraphy treasure. ”

After Vice President Li finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Liu Ruihua and Cai Zhuoyan. Liu Ruihua said: "Vice President Li, I know more or less about this, but I don't know it very well. ”

Vice President Li smiled and continued: "The third day of the third lunar month in 353 AD. When Wang Xizhi and Xie An, Sun Sui and other 41 people were repairing in the Lanting Pavilion in Shaoxing, everyone drank and wrote poems, and collected poems. Wang Xizhi improvised a preface, which is the famous "Orchid Pavilion Preface". This post is a draft, 28 lines. 324 words. It describes the scene of the literati gathering at that time. Wang Xizhi was in high spirits at that time and wrote very proudly, and it is said that Wang Xizhi wrote again later, but he could not find inspiration. It's a pity that the legend was deceived by Tang Taizong! There is no conclusive conclusion in this history. ”

After listening to Vice President Li's introduction, Cai Zhuoyan nodded and said: "It is rumored that Tang Taizong highly respected Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, and after he deceived Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" from Wang Xi's descendants, he ordered his courtiers Zhao Mo, Feng Chengsu and others to carefully copy some copies of the ......."

Vice President Li happily added when he saw that Cai Zhuoyan knew this at a young age: "Yes. Whether this rumor is true or not, let's not say first, at least in the Tang Dynasty, there were many copies of the "Orchid Pavilion Preface". In addition, there are also the hand-me-downs of famous artists such as Ouyang Xun, Chu Suiliang, and Yu Shinan, and what we are now exhibiting are copies of these hand-me-downs. ”

Liu Ruihua used to learn calligraphy completely out of interest, so in previous history, Liu Ruihua's level of speech was not very high. In fact, there is a lot of this knowledge on the Internet, but the memory in the human brain is limited. However, after the stimulation of Cai Zhuoyan and Vice President Li...... Liu Ruihua's memory about Wang Xizhi stored in his brain has been activated!

Liu Ruihua recalled for a moment and said: "I remember! I have read the information before: it is said that the authentic work of the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" was forever lost as a funeral object when Tang Taizong died. According to historical records, the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" said in Li Shimin's edict that it was to be pillowed under his head. That is to say, this treasure should be in the mausoleum of Tang Taizong in Zhaoling. But what is the history of thorns in the five dynasties...... The Zhaoling was stolen, but the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" was not found...... Vice President Li, where do historians think the authentic work of Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" should be?"

Vice President Li was surprised: "It's amazing! I can't imagine that there are still young people who care about this! Let me add: What kind of assassination history are you talking about...... It is said that after this person robbed the tomb, he did not find the authentic trace of the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" in the tomb of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty...... Later, historians speculated that the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" was hidden in the mausoleum of Wu Zetian in Qianling. And there are folk rumors in the Qianling area. There has long been "Orchid Pavilion Preface" to accompany the funeral of Wu Zetian. Of course, perhaps Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" has long been destroyed! Maybe he has not been buried at all! Anything can happen in this world! In short, Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" has a tremendous influence!

Liu Ruihua joked: "Don't rob the tomb...... Let's see if there is Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" in Wu Zetian's tomb!"

"Tomb robbery?" Vice Principal Li looked at Liu Ruihua and said with a smile: "For thousands of years, there are many people who have the same mind as you! Haha, people with these thoughts really like "Orchid Pavilion Preface"!"

Liu Ruihua smiled and said, "Vice President Li, Gu said that there are 5 copies of the version?"

Vice President Li smiled: "Yes. There are five versions. Now, Yu Ben, Chu Ben, and Feng Ben are now in the Palace Museum of the Chinese mainland, which are these three treasures, and the Huang Juan and Ding Wu are now in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, which are these two treasures. ”

Vice President Li introduced that Liu Ruihua and Cai Zhuoyan carefully observed through the bulletproof glass.

Liu Ruihua shook his head and sighed: "Hey, I didn't expect these national treasures to be reunited across the sea? ”

At this time, a TV station came to interview Vice President Li. After a while, the calligraphy competition was ready to start, and as a warm-up, the TV station was filming some calligraphy enthusiasts copying "Orchid Pavilion Preface" on the spot.

Liu Ruihua thinks that there are a few people who write really well. It's just that Liu Ruihua looked at Cai Zhuoyan and saw that her expression was normal, and she looked a little disdainful.

Just when Cai Zhuoyan was frowning, Vice President Li came over and said, "Cai Zhuoyan, wait a minute, many visitors from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, plus Japan and South Korea, and everyone will copy the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" on the spot, and then auction it on the spot...... Are you ready, are you confident of winning?"

"Yes!" replied Liu Ruihua!

Cai Zhuoyan heard Liu Ruihua answer categorically instead of herself, she didn't say anything, just nodded slightly and said, "I will do my best!"

With Cai Zhuoyan's words, Vice President Li has the bottom in his heart. Schedule upcoming competitions, news coverage, and auctions now.

Not long after, the host said that the calligraphy exchange activities between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places had officially begun! Of course, this reporter would not say that this exchange activity was actually a competition. But the visitors knew it in their hearts. If the level of calligraphers in Taiwan and Hong Kong is obviously higher than that of mainland China, then mainland China will be a dead man.

After the calligraphy competition began, the audience at the scene was saddened to find that the representative of the Chinese mainland in addition to Vice President Li was actually a visitor! This little girl was wearing a hat and sunglasses at the moment, and she looked very mysterious. There's no way, Cai Zhuoyan just wants to let Ruihua know her strength, and she doesn't want to show up to let others see her true face.

The visitor was dizzy. Could it be that there are no more talented people in the Huaxia Continent? Even such a young little girl has come up! At this moment, their hearts rose to their throats.

The calligraphers from Hong Kong were the first to start their performances, and they won bursts of applause as soon as they made their moves! The eyes of the visitors from the mainland of China were straightened...... In fact, this is understandable, after all, it is quite similar to the traditional Chinese characters in Taiwan, and since the simplified Chinese characters have been realized, the calligraphy level of the Chinese mainland has obviously lagged behind.

The second to appear was a calligrapher from Taiwan. As soon as he put down his pen, the audience burst into thunderous applause! No matter whether or not the mainland of China will lose this calligraphy contest, the characters written by this Hong Kong calligrapher are beautiful! Anyway, Hong Kong and Taiwan are both of the Chinese nation, and the audience was very excited that someone could write such good characters.

The third person to appear was Vice President Li of Huaxia Continent. As soon as he played. The audience applauded loudly. Now at this time, the big guy can only hope that Vice President Li will win glory for the Huaxia Continent!

Fortunately, Vice President Li lived up to expectations, and his calligraphy level was also very high, and calligraphers from Hong Kong and Taiwan all nodded secretly. The Chinese mainland has a large population, and Vice President Li is definitely not the person with the highest level of calligraphy attainment, but even so, Vice President Li's level is on par with them!

It seems that although the Chinese mainland has carried out reform and opening up. A national policy centered on economic construction was implemented, but the cultural construction of the Chinese mainland was not neglected. Because Vice President Li previously announced that he would set up a calligraphy research institute at Jinghua University to train potential young people.

After Liu Ruihua saw the first round of exchanges, he asked Cai Zhuoyan in a low voice: "Sister, how do you feel? Who is the highest level of the first three?" Liu Ruihua is not worried that Cai Zhuoyan's level will be worse than that of calligraphers like them, if that is the case, Vice President Li will not value Cai Zhuoyan so much.

Cai Zhuoyan whispered: "Ruihua, you should see it, right?" In fact, Cai Zhuoyan didn't want to make a public evaluation, after all, those calligraphers are all old people, and respecting the old and loving the young is an ancient tradition in our country.

Liu Ruihua seemed to understand Cai Zhuoyan's thoughts. Said with a smile: "The calligrapher in Taiwan has the highest level, Vice President Li is close behind, and the calligrapher in Hong Kong is also very good." What do you see?"

Cai Zhuoyan's eyes lit up, looked at Liu Ruihua and said: "Ruihua's eyes are like torches, and what he says is extremely true. Liu Ruihua's opinion is the same as Cai Zhuoyan's, and Cai Zhuoyan is still very happy that Liu Ruihua can have such an opinion. In the future, I and Ruihua have a common hobby, which is of course a good thing.

At this time, the auction began! The organizers invited a large number of collectors. There are no less than 10 collectors like Shangguan Fengyun, so the on-site bidding is very fierce.

As prices continue to climb. Oh my God, the first calligraphy work of a Hong Kong calligrapher has been auctioned for 500,000 yuan! 500,000 yuan, just a piece of calligraphy? In the end, the auction price of the Hong Kong calligrapher's work was 688,000 yuan!

The scene is getting hotter and hotter now! Next, in the midst of continuous applause, the final auction price of the Taiwanese calligrapher's work was 880,000 yuan. Vice President Li's calligraphy work is 850,000!

Liu Ruihua and Cai Zhuoyan smiled at each other, this price also reflects the true level of the three calligraphers.

Next up is the student competition. Japan and South Korea performed one after another, and they also won bursts of applause, and they were a little provocative at this time, and the biggest Cai Zhuoyan who was shocked just now just now disappointed them, Cai Zhuoyan did not play. On the stage were two students from Jingjing University and Jinghua University. It's just that the two of them don't think about it, and their level is a step behind that of Japanese and Korean students. Knowing that the onlookers were extremely depressed. After all, but in our country, most of the audience is from the Chinese mainland.

I don't know why, Hong Kong and Taiwan did not send out a delegation of visitors, and they probably didn't want to slap mainland China in the face in the two places, right? After all, Hong Kong and Taiwan are much better than mainland China in inheriting the ancient culture of the Chinese nation.

On the contrary, the Japanese and ROK delegates were very excited, and the two delegations went so far as to argue that they would always strive to be the first! The Japanese delegation of visitors felt that their calligraphy was very good and should be much better than that of the Korean delegation; of course the Korean delegation of visitors was unwilling, clamoring that they were the most powerful!

In the end, 150,000 yuan of calligraphy was auctioned off by Japanese students, 130,000 yuan from South Korea, and 60,000 yuan each by two students from mainland China. For students, it is already rare that words are so valuable.

However, the audience was very depressed, and some patriotic people wanted to support our domestic visitors, but unlike the experts, there are restrictions on the auction of students' calligraphy, and the auction price must be limited according to the judges' scores, which is also for the sake of fairness.

Liu Xiuting exhaled angrily: "Sister Xiaoyan, why don't you make a move? What do you think of the two students from Japan and South Korea?"

Cai Zhuoyan smiled and did not speak.

Liu Ruihua patted Liu Xiuting's little head and said, "You big fool, is Cai Zhuoyan too lazy to have general knowledge with those students? Cai Zhuoyan wants to compete with those famous players on the same stage? What qualifications do those students have to compare with Cai Zhuoyan? It's not a level of competition." Don't worry, Cai Zhuoyan will soon be on the field to win glory for the country!"

After Liu Ruihua explained why Cai Zhuoyan did not participate in the student competition, Liu Xiuting suddenly realized: "So that's what it is?"

Next, the temperature of the second round of famous performances is getting higher and higher, but everyone finds that the calligraphers from Hong Kong and Taiwan in the second round are not as good as those in the first round. But even so, there was still a wave of applause outside the scene.

This calligraphy is Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface", which can be called the first calligraphy work in China!
