Volume 2 The Journey to the South Chapter 458 Kangxi Yu Ruyi
"Boss, where are we going now?" Second, Sun Moba asked. Yesterday I went crazy in the capital of this era, and it feels good. The female entry here is good, similar to Xiao Rì's, it's easy to hook up, and there is no psychological burden at all.
"Forgot what we're here for? Going to the museum, of course. Hong Yaobao rolled his eyes and said.
"If you want me to say, just grab it, why bother? You know, in the beginning, they did the same. Sun Moba said confidently.
"Exactly, and after grabbing it, it's better to have less fire and smash everything you can. Anyway, this is also a causal cycle, and no one is to blame. Jiang Buwu also agreed with Sun Moba's idea.
When Prince Weiss and the others heard this, their scalps were a little numb. Although they are telling the truth, more than 100 years ago, European and American countries did treat China in this way, and the most luxurious gardens in the world were destroyed at that time. But times are different now! also wants to burn, kill and loot, which is worthy of a madman's behavior.
"Don't mess around, it's best to solve it peacefully, it's best to let them suffer a dumb loss, and if they eat Coptis chinensis, they can't tell the bitterness." Hong Yaobao has his own better plans. Control a batch of intakes, so that they are willing to send the baby back to China. When they come to their senses, it is useless to regret it.
In this way, which treasures can be put out openly when they go back, instead of hiding themselves and being dusty.
Hong Yaobao also checked that in this city, there is a very famous museum, which treasures countless precious cultural relics in China. That's the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, is the largest museum in the United States, built in 1880, the whole museum is a building, covering an area of 8 hectares, 1/9 of the Palace Museum in Beijing, but the exhibition area is very large, no less than 24 hectares, but twice the size of the Palace Museum. There are more than 200 galleries alone, with a collection of 365,000 artifacts and works of art.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is located in New York's Zhōngyāng Park, in a quiet and elegant environment. However, the architecture does not reflect the creation of Mi Guojin, with high steps and large columns, which are as rigid and monotonous as any standard museum. However, the content of the exhibition is rich and colorful, reflecting the style of the country with sufficient funds and great style. The entire 2,460-year-old Egyptian tomb is housed in a giant glass enclosure in the museum's purpose-built hall.
Considered to be the most developed country in science and technology, the country has a strong interest in the ancient architectural art of China, which is really thought-provoking. Perhaps due to the short history of the United States, the organizers of the museum are not satisfied with the display of a single exhibit, but make full use of the abundant financial resources to create some environments with different styles to make nostalgia for the past.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art has a huge exhibition area, but it is hardly the pinnacle of art. The Metropolitan Museum has more than 8O pieces of ancient ceramics in Dehua, including the early porcelain carving Dharma elephant works of He Chaozong, a famous pottery sculptor in Dehua.
Walking into the main entrance of the 5th Avenue 82nd Street Museum, you will be checked by a safety backpack and there are multiple ticket offices in the lobby where you can pay the recommended price.
The information desk in the lobby is staffed with information in a variety of languages, maps and information, and multilingual audio guides, as well as guided tours.
There are also services for the disabled, infants, wheelchairs, baby carriers and other information. There is a restaurant, a café and a drinking fountain.
"Isn't it about putting things from our country out for a fee? These rice countries are really shameless, the things they robbed are actually put out openly, and they dare to charge, and my grandson can't see it. Sun Moba said indignantly.
Hong Yaobao was very speechless, is this guy so angry? Why can't you see it usually? It's clear that he just wants to find an excuse to make a big fuss, and he says it so honestly.
"Watch me act, or I'll send you home with a flying sword." Hong Yaobao threatened.
The others did not doubt that Hong Yaobao had this ability. Jiang Buwu squeezed and said, "Hehe! The old grandson can't wait! Much better than flying, right? Old grandson? ”
"Humph! Don't think that my grandson doesn't know your Lao Jiang's thoughts, and you little pepper, you are the one who wants to set fire the most. Sun Moba said fiercely.
"Huh? Black charcoal, there's a kind of you say again. "Tang Xin is not muddy, he is also full of thorns, whoever touches it is unlucky.
Hong Yaobao glanced at them and motioned for them to be quiet. After understanding, Hong Yaobao knows that the content on display here is extremely rich, including architecture, sculpture, paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, glassware, ceramics, textiles, metal products, furniture, ancient houses, weapons, armor and musical instruments from various historical periods.
On the first floor, the exhibition halls are the American Pavilion, Arms and Armor, African, Oceanic and American Art, Greco-Roman Art, European Sculpture and Decorative Arts, Robert Brown. Lyman Collection, Medieval Art, Modern Art, Egyptian Art, Thomas, Watson Library, Sackler Hall.
On the second floor, the exhibition halls are Ancient Near Eastern Art, Chinese Art, Small Rì Art, Cypriot Art, Drawings and Prints, European Painting, Central Asian Art, Islamic Art, Modern Art, Musical Instruments, 19th Century European Painting and Sculpture, Photography, South and Southeast Asian Art.
There is also the ground floor, where is the Costume Research Institute and the Ulris Education Center.
Here, you can see bronze statues from the Shang Dynasty, wooden figurines from Changsha in the Warring States Period, bronze Buddha statues from the Northern Wei Dynasty, pottery ox carts from the Tang Dynasty, wood carvings of Guanyin from the Song Dynasty and a portrait of the Qianlong Emperor from the Qing Dynasty.
Seeing these treasures, Tang Xin, who was originally careless, suddenly became serious. Although she is usually crazy, when it comes to domestic cultural relics, she is very important, and she can become a disciple of Confucius, and she still has such qualities.
Especially when I saw that Kangxi jade Ruyi, this is also a national treasure!
The shape of the jade Ruyi is like a long-handled hook, the hook head is Ganoderma lucidum or cloud type, and the handle is slightly curved. Ming and Qing dynasties, take the name of Ruyi, indicating that the ancient auspicious Ruyi, happiness comes, is for the play of the ancient utensils.
The Kangxi jade Ruyi collected in the museum is one of the lost art treasures of the Old Summer Palace. It is carved from a piece of precious white jade, nearly half a meter long, white and green, and is carved into the shape of a porous fungus. At the top of the handle, there are two big characters of "Imperial System", and the lower part is engraved with an inscription: "Wish for many prosperous years, and be salty and wishful, and the minister Wu respectfully advances". It was snatched by the British and French forces, then auctioned in Paris and finally acquired at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The invention of jade Ruyi and its development history has a long history, as early as the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties in China, jade Ruyi has become a favorite thing in the hands of emperors and generals.
Gu Jin combined the solid metaphorical virtue of "a gentleman has no reason, and jade does not go to the body" with the ancient auspicious meaning of Ruyi, and achieved a Ruyi utensil with Chinese special sè Guxiang culture. According to the first volume of "The Grand View of the History of the Qing Dynasty": "Ruyi, the name of the thing, there were already before the Tang and Song dynasties. ”
From the Tang, Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties to the Qing Dynasty, jade ruyi was given great importance, and the production of jade ruyi was also jīng. But at this time, Ruyi has no practical function, just a symbol of ancient auspicious furnishings, often used as a gift friendly.
During the Kangxi period, Ruyi became the plaything of the emperor and the concubine in the palace, and Ruyi was placed next to the throne and in the dormitory to show the ancient auspiciousness and comfort.
Emperor Qianlong was also a young man who loved to collect jade, and he was even more fond of jade Ruyi, so he collected a large number of precious jade Ruyi in the palace at that time, as an ancient mascot in the Qing Dynasty court.
It can be seen from the Qing Dynasty to the portrait, in the picture of "Yongzheng Knife Regular Clothes", the concubine stands alone in front of the peony bush, holding a Ganoderma lucidum in her hand; In "Emperor Qianlong's Qin Rhyme", there is also a picture of Emperor Qianlong playing the piano with both hands in his later years, and a child servant beside him also holds a jade Ruyi inlaid with sandalwood.
In addition, it is said that when Emperor Qianlong listened to the government in Linxuan, read poems and read antiques, he was indispensable to hold a child servant holding jade Ruyi, which shows that jade Ruyi was already lofty to the point of shock in the Qing Dynasty.
"Hey! Ay! Do you want a thousand? Hong Yaobao saw that Tang Xin's little witch was secretly lucky, raised his hand, and hurriedly asked.
"Ugh! I couldn't help it for a while. Tang Xin realized that he was a little out of shape.
"And what do you want?" Coming back to his senses, Tang Xin asked rhetorically. Although Hong Yaobao said that he had a way to make Beijin obediently give the baby his hands, everyone was very curious and wanted to know what method he used.
Hong Yaobao didn't speak, and pointed to an overweight Mi Guoyan on the side.
I saw that the guy was fine, but then he didn't know what nerves he had, so he actually clenched his fist and smashed it towards the glass window, and scolded in his mouth: "Mi Guojin is a bastard, don't you have any shame?" These things were robbed from the country of China, and they were brazenly put out? ”
The museum quickly noticed the guy, and the security guards inside immediately arrested him.
"That guy did it himself?" Victor asked dumbfounded.
Hong Yaobao shook his head: "He was just controlled by me, and it is estimated that he will regret it after a while." ”
When everyone heard this, they immediately shuddered. How terrible is it for an incoming mind to be controlled? I don't know what I've done, but I do it myself. One can't help but enter the body, it is very painful, this trick can be described as yīn sinister and vicious.
"Boss, let's go have tea with old Oba when we have time." Sun Moba's eyes rolled and he spoke.
"Ugh! Do you know him well? Hong Yaobao asked rhetorically.
"Don't you know how to do that? By the way, he set a trap for Lao Ao, let him teach a few disobedient monkeys, and if the monkeys are disobedient, pick a chicken and kill it for the monkeys. Sun Moba yīn said with a smile.
This time, Hong Yaobao understood this guy's intentions, and immediately spoke: "Get out!" ”
