Chapter 260: Qinon Parchment

"There are also three bronzes from Xia Shang Zhou!"

Andrew looked at Wu Tianyuan with some excitement and said with a smile: "You like to take it all this time as a bargaining chip." ”

Wu Tianyuan smiled, he couldn't ask for it, this is to take what he needs, the treasure of the Holy See is average to him, and China's cultural relics are also dispensable to the Holy See.

Wu Tianyuan didn't stay in the Vatican for a long time, and went directly to the second treasure location the next day, and soon found two treasure chests, which were full of parchment?

"It's chinon parchment!"

"In 1312, King Philip IV of France called for the dissolution of the Knights Templar by Pope Clement V. The Portuguese Order was subordinated to the Society of Jesus, no longer engaged in military missions, and evolved into an ordinary religious order with a focus on overseas missions. The Spanish and Portuguese Knights property was transferred to two new Order, the Spanish Order of Montesa and the Portuguese Order of Christ. ”

"In 1314, before being burned at the stake, the chief of the Knights, Molay, cursed King Philip IV of France and Pope Clement V, saying that they would face eternal judgment within a year. In line with the facts, Pope Clement V fell ill and died a month later, and the beautiful man Philip IV died suddenly while hunting six months later.

Later generations examined some other chΓ’non parchments and found that the Order was in fact judged to be "probably immoral and not heretical." After the Knights Templar was wiped out, the Knights Hospitaller acquired most of their possessions by order of the Pope, many Templars from various countries joined the Knights Hospitaller, and Philip IV monopolized the Knights' possessions in France. ”

"Is it a political conspiracy to grab wealth, that is?"

After listening to the introduction of the Ring of the Brave, Wu Tianyuan said disdainfully: "The so-called superior people always use the excuse of fairness and righteousness to do things that kill people and oversell goods!" ”

"But these are good things, especially for the French, once the whole world knows that their king kills people for wealth, and dares to put a basin on the head of the Holy See? Hey! ”

Wu Tianyuan didn't say a word, flew directly to Paris, contacted Henry, and blackmailed the French.

I don't have a good impression of the Frenchman Wu Tianyuan, he is the aggressor of the Eight-Nation Alliance, and the Louvre was too stingy last time, and it can't be compared with the Holy See, so this time it will make them bleed.

"What a shock! Dear Wu, this time you have witnessed a miracle again! ”

Henry was surprised to identify all the chinon parchments, and as an expert in religious history, he naturally knew the importance of these archives to the bloody crimes. Once exposed, it will be an uproar, and it will be a fatal blow to the relationship between the royal family and the Holy See that has just eased!

"Enough chips this time, right?"

Wu Tianyuan said coldly: "I heard that you have several secret rooms in the Louvre?" I don't have high requirements, take me to the Chinese secret room to choose a baby, otherwise I will be exhibited in my own museum, I believe it will cause a huge sensation! ”

Henry's face changed, and he hurriedly stopped: "No problem, Wu, as the most outstanding private museum director in China, is definitely qualified to visit our secret room." You see, I'll arrange it, and we'll go. ”

Henry whispered a few words to his subordinates, and Wu Tianyuan pouted, he must have hidden the heavy weapon in advance! This Frenchman is very unrealistic, play slowly in the future!

Wu Tianyuan got a more detailed museum information from the black fox, which recorded many unknown insider stories, including the three secret rooms of the Louvre. No one knows what kind of Chinese national treasure is hidden in the Grade A secret room, and only a handful of people can enter it.

"This is our Class C secret room, only VIPs are eligible to visit, I remember that no more than twenty Chinese have visited!"

Henry smiled and led Wu Tianyuan through many security procedures, and finally entered a room of more than 300 square meters, which contained at least hundreds of cultural relics.

"Wen Tian's iron Ruyi!"

"Tang Bodhisattva's Virgin Sutra!"

"Shanghu cannibal bronze tripod!"

Wu Tianyuan looked at the national treasures in surprise, although he already knew that Henry must have hidden some more important cultural relics in advance, but the rest was still quite shocking!

"Could this be a fifth-generation firewood kiln?"

Wu Tianyuan's eyes suddenly lit up, picked up a small azure bowl, and studied it excitedly.

The firewood kiln is the imperial kiln of Zhou Shizong, the emperor of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, which is recorded to have been founded in Zhengzhou, Henan Province in the early years of Zhou Xiande after the five dynasties, but has not yet found the physical objects and ruins. The porcelain produced is "blue as the sky, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, sound like a chime, moist and delicate with fine lines." The production is exquisite, and it is the best among the kilns of the time.

In the third year of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty, Lu Zhen compiled the "Xuande Ding Yi Spectrum" recorded: "The inner government collects firewood, Ru, official, brother, Jun, and named kiln utensils, and the style is elegant, and the picture is written. Its firewood, you, official, brother, jun, and Dingzhong are selected and selected twenty-nine kinds. ”

It is rumored that Yan Song, the minister of power in the Ming Dynasty, and his son, in the name of the emperor, raised the power of the whole country, and collected more than a dozen pieces of firewood kiln porcelain in his life.

Qing Liang Shaoren's "Essay on Two Autumn Rain Nunnery" records that He Menghua, a Qing man, purchased a piece of firewood kiln from Ruan Yuan, which was inlaid as an ink bed, and the color was also green and lovely. The brilliance is obscure, and it is suspected that the kiln is mixed.

A green lily vase with a sky-like blue color was exhibited at the Sunshine Art Museum in Takeo City, Japan, the year before last, and it was suspected that it was likely to be a firewood kiln that had been lost for thousands of years. This exhibition is also the first time it has been made public. The firewood kiln is regarded as the "crown of all kilns" in China.

The blue lily vase is currently owned by the Japan-China Historical Preservation Association, whose president began studying it 12 years ago. According to him, when the wine is poured into the middle of the vase and then poured out, the vase will make a sound of "Kang-Kang-", which is consistent with the description of the firewood kiln in historical documents -- "blue as the sky, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, and sound like a chime."

About 600 years ago, the Ming Dynasty Emperor of China gave this vase to the Japanese shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and it has been passed down from generation to generation by Japan's famous Kobi family. The firewood kiln is praised as a ceramic artwork with the ultimate beauty, and it can be called the treasure of the treasures. But the world is so big, and no one has ever seen or touched it.

Henry's face suddenly changed, and he said nervously: "I'm sorry, this is a mistake by the staff, it doesn't belong here!" ”

Wu Tianyuan angrily watched Henry snatch away the small bowl of the firewood kiln, and snorted coldly, do you want to change it?

Henry smiled and said, "Now you can choose all the artifacts in the secret room at will, and you can choose three pieces in exchange according to the number." ”

Wu Tianyuan touched the Conqueror's Ring in his hand, and sneered secretly, Let's come to Japan for a long time, one day I want you to invite me into the so-called Grade A secret room!

In the end, he chose Wen Tian's iron Ruyi, which best represents his iron-clad and unyielding integrity, which is very meaningful.

There are also Tang Bodhisattva's virgin scriptures and Shang bronze tripods, a total of three, which can be regarded as the completion of the second transaction with the French. (To be continued.) )
