In the morning, before Liu Yuhao got up, Kerry's voice came from outside the door, "Sir, an old gentleman came to visit and said that he had to see you." ”

"Did you ask him what his name was?"

Liu Yuhao was slightly stunned, scratched his head and said strangely.

You must know that not many people know about the place where Xia Yuqing lives, not to mention, Liu Yuhao doesn't seem to have any acquaintances here, how can someone come to visit early in the morning!

Kerry left for a while, and soon returned, through the door, and said, "The old gentleman said that his surname was Ge, and that he said that he had only met you yesterday. ”

"Ge, Master Ge? How could it be him? ”

Liu Yuhao was really stunned this time, scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "This old man, the news is quite well-informed!" ”

Let's not talk about how Master Ge found this place, as long as Old Man Kong is here, I believe that it is not difficult for Master Ge to find Liu Yuhao.

But what made Liu Yuhao strange was that there was no friendship between him and Master Ge, and even if there was really something that Liu Yuhao needed to help with, according to the friendship between Master Ge and Kong Lao, he didn't need to condescend to come to him in person.

"What is Old Man Ge doing here early in the morning?"

Liu Yuhao secretly scolded in his heart, and whispered to the door: "Tell the old gentleman, I'll come soon." ”

"Are you leaving?"

The soft voice behind him pulled Liu Yuhao back to reality.

Liu Yuhao turned his head and smiled, picked up Xia Yuqing's delicate face and kissed it, and whispered: "I have something to do, but I will be back soon." ”

"Hmmm! Then, I'll wait for you with you. ”

A kind of flush on the face after being fully moistened by the man made Xia Yuqing smile, tilted her little head and nodded, and immediately got back into the warm quilt.

Liu Yuhao smiled, his eyes glanced at Xia Yuqing's slender figure a few times, and he felt a little dry.

"It's not good to go in a hurry, it's not good to keep people waiting for a long time."

Xia Yuqing gently removed the dishonest hand on her chest, and said with a smile.

Liu Yuhao shouted vaguely, and gently kissed Nannan's little face before quickly putting on his clothes and walking out of the door, after all, Master Ge is a senior, and it would be a little rude to let the old man wait too long.

"Master Ge, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting!"

Liu Yuhao was startled when he saw Master Ge's haggard face, and said in his heart: "It's only been one night, how can the old man of kung fu be so virtuous?" If you want to say that the two purple clay pots are not enough? ”

Fortunately, Liu Yuhao has experienced a lot of things, and he has already been able to skillfully divide his inner thoughts and facial expressions into two parts, so he can't see anything unusual in his expression when he greets him.

When Master Ge saw Liu Yuhao coming down from upstairs, he immediately squeezed out an ugly smile and said, "Yuhao Xiaoyou, it was Brother Kong who told me that you live here." ”

Liu Yuhao waved his hand to signal Master Ge that he didn't need to explain, and after the old man sat down again, he beckoned the waiter at home to serve tea.

The waiter was invited by Xia Yuqing, because she was not used to the lifestyle here, so Xia Yuqing specially invited three mothers from China to accompany her children to study abroad.

"Master Ge, I don't know how old you are?"

Liu Yuhao smiled with satisfaction, and after the tea was poured, he waved his hand to signal the irrelevant people to retreat, and then asked Master Ge the purpose of his arrival.

Master Ge stared at Liu Yuhao for a long time, as if he was looking at a monster, and only sighed heavily for a while, but he didn't say anything, let alone explain the purpose of his visit to Liu Yuhao.

This made Liu Yuhao even more strange, but the old man didn't say that he was embarrassed to ask again, so he had to sit on the sofa and find a few topics to talk to, trying to find a breakthrough from the conversation.

After a while, Master Ge raised his cup to take a sip of tea, put down the cup, and said, "Xiaoyou, I heard that Qi Lao is the Taishan Beidou in the domestic archaeological community, so you naturally know a lot about antiques." ”

Because of the mention of Old Man Qi, Liu Yuhao immediately sat up straight, first nodded slightly to express his gratitude, then smiled and waved his hand, and said modestly: "Master Ge has won the award, and the teacher can naturally monopolize the head, but I only know a little bit about it, and I don't know a lot." ”

Although being too modest is equal to pride, after all, Liu Yuhao really doesn't need to reveal too much to Master Ge about the things between him and Old Man Qi.

After listening to Liu Yuhao's words, there was obviously a hint of disappointment on Master Ge's face, but the old man was still a little unwilling, frowned, and asked again: "Xiaoyou, I have a question I want to ask you today. ”

It was only then that Master Ge explained his true purpose for coming here.

Liu Yuhao was stunned, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and said: "Master Ge, don't say the word "ask for advice, if there is anything, you can say hello directly, and the kid will naturally know everything." ”

Master Ge nodded slightly, and said: "I heard that in the Song Dynasty part of the "Complete Works of Ancient Chinese Ceramics" edited by Mr. Li Binghui, there is no record of the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the reason is that there is no firing site so far, and there is no relevant evidence of the site, so it is impossible to confirm the surviving official kiln porcelain. ”

Liu Yuhao nodded and said, "Master Ge is right, as far as I know, that's exactly the case. ”

As we all know, the most critical part of archaeological support is ancient documents and surviving ancient artifacts.

However, the surviving ancient artifacts are difficult to verify as far as the current identification chaos is concerned, and they are all said to be authentic, so if there is, it should not be there. The ancient document is the book "Tanzhai Biheng" written by Ye Zhen of the Song Dynasty, which records the earliest known article about the official kiln.

The article said: "During the Zhenghe period, the Beijing master built his own kiln for firing, and it was called the official kiln." However, when the firing site was determined by following the interpretation of the word "Jingshi", there was a controversy, one side said that Jingshi refers to the capital, and the other side says that Jingshi refers to the imperial court, and with the end of the archaeological excavation of the Kaifeng Imperial City, it turns out that there is no kiln site for firing porcelain.

As a result, some people say that Ye Zhen's "Tanzhai Biheng" is just a folk history, and the apocryphal story is not credible.

Before figuring out Master Ge's true purpose, Liu Yuhao's current answer can only be said to be decent.

"Then was there an official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty? Qi Lao hasn't had a conclusion over the years? ”

Master Ge's brows furrowed into a lump, and he seemed to have a very heavy mind in his heart, Liu Yuhao could see that the old man was very anxious to understand the authenticity of the existence of the official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty.

"Master Ge, according to my inference, Ye Zhen should be an ordinary literati in the late reign of Song Gaozong Zhao Jiandu Lin'an or abdicated but was still alive, because the book mentions the word "Guzong". ”

Liu Yuhao took a sip of tea and led the topic to "Tanzhai Biheng", "And "Tanzhai Biheng" can be written and circulated, and the record in the manual should be a fact, otherwise it would have been banned Ye Zhen would have been copied and beheaded." ”

This answer has already told Master Ge that Liu Yuhao himself believes in his heart that there are official kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty.

The reason why Liu Yuhao did not directly answer Master Ge's question and tell the views of Old Man Qi, but quoted the books of the ancients, he also had his own ideas.

Whether at home or internationally, whether there was an official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty has been debated among archaeologists for a long time, and it is not clear in one or two sentences.

Otherwise, once today's conversation spreads, in the eyes of some "well-intentioned people", his words may be regarded as representing the views of Old Man Qi.

In fact, Liu Yuhao doesn't care what others think in their hearts, he has long learned from the deerskin atlas that there are official kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty, but because there is no solid evidence, he can't explain these words.

Liu Yuhao can't always shout at the world ** with his throat in his voice, "I know, my ability knows that there is an official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty!"

If that happens, there will be only two consequences: either it will be regarded as crazy by others, or it will definitely be secretly arrested by some scientific research department as a research object.

Liu Yuhao didn't want to be a white mouse for experiments.

Master Ge frowned and thought for a long time, then asked, "Yuhao Xiaoyou, can you explain the points you just said?" ”

Liu Yuhao smiled and said, "Since Master Ge asked me to say it, then I'm not welcome, but I'm just saying it, you just laugh and laugh when you hear it, and you can't take it seriously." ”

Master Ge was amused by Liu Yuhao, and the gloom on his face disappeared a lot, "We can discuss problems with each other as friends, it's not a big deal." ”

Although Master Ge said so, Liu Yuhao still put away his smile and said seriously: "Master Ge must know that the ancient social hierarchy is very strict, there are many rules, and the rules are different for different classes. ”

Master Ge nodded, but did not interrupt Liu Yuhao's words, and continued to listen attentively with interest.

Liu Yuhao said again: "The official kiln, literally interpreted as a kiln purchased by the government, but the official word in ancient times had the meaning of referring to the Son of Heaven, so the official kiln is likely to refer to the kiln of the Son of Heaven, and Ye Zhen, as an ordinary literati, must avoid the emperor's font size in the text, so it will be recorded in an implicit way when the emperor's font size is written in the text." ”

Master Ge naturally read Ye Zhen's "Tanzhai Biheng", and after hearing Liu Yuhao's words, he suddenly raised his hand and patted his head like a Daigo empowerment, and said: "Do you think that the beginning of the book says, 'This dynasty uses Dingzhou white porcelain to have mangs, and it is unusable, so I ordered Ruzhou to make green kilns' is actually the official kiln?" ”

Liu Yuhao didn't answer, picked up the teacup and took a sip before nodding at Master Ge with a faint smile.
