At the time of China's most glorious Han Dynasty, Japan was still in the age of obscurantism, and the Japanese had just come down from the trees.

Not to mention writing, the language has just been formed, and it is still in the stage of tribal conquest against each other, and the concept of a unified nation has not been formed at all.

At that time, even the southern stick at that time, he could tie a gourd around his waist and cross the ocean to Japan to catch slaves, let alone China, even the southern stick at that time could beat Japan at that time.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Japan had its first contact with China, and the envoys sent by Japan obtained a Japanese general seal given by Liu Xiu at that time.

After that, the Han Dynasty fell, and the daimyo in Japan were also at war with each other, and there was no communication between the two countries.

It wasn't until the Tang Dynasty, when Japan was already united, that they tried to invade the mainland, and as later, their first step was to invade Korea.

At that time, Korea had not been unified at all, and the ancestor of Nambang, Baekje, was having a headache about how to fight against Li Tang's heavenly soldiers.

It just so happened that the Japanese sent reinforcements, and the Tang Dynasty's crusading army also happened to arrive at the Baekgang Estuary in Baekje, and the two armies faced off again.

At that time, the Tang army had only 170 warships and 20,000 soldiers, while the Japanese slave army had 1,000 warships and 32,000 soldiers.

However, at this time, the Tang army was a lion in a hundred battles, and he had fought with the Turks and the Tubo people in the Western Regions, and he had also killed the Goguryeo people and the Gaochang people in the northeast, and he was definitely a lion with extremely rich combat experience.

And the Japanese slaves at this time are actually not good stubble. They are also veterans who have fought each other for many years in China, but in the end, the result of this battle is jaw-dropping.

Although the Japanese slaves could not be said to be defeated at the touch of a button, compared with the Tang army, which was experienced in war, it was not worth mentioning at all, and they were defeated by the Tang army. Floating corpses for hundreds of miles.

That is, after this war, the Japanese completely recognized the gap between them and the Tang Dynasty, so they sent many envoys to the Tang Dynasty to learn various etiquette systems, cultural experiences and so on.

After that, there was the monk Jianzhen who crossed to the east, bringing a rich and colorful Tang Dynasty culture to Japan, and from then on, Japan was truly civilized and entered the era of civilization.

And then came to the Song Dynasty. At this time, porcelain had already developed to the stage of Dacheng, and before that, Japan had been using the Tang Dynasty lifestyle because of the image of the Tang Dynasty, and the food was also shoddy pottery.

After the porcelain of the Song Dynasty was imported to Japan, it quickly won the love of the Japanese, up to the heavenly nobles. Down to the common people of Limin, there is no one who does not like this kind of crystal clear. White as jade.

It is precisely because of the emergence of porcelain that Japan gave birth to its own unique tea ceremony culture, flower arrangement culture, and their special food culture.

Therefore, if the cultural import of the Tang Dynasty made Japan completely enter the era of civilization, the import of porcelain from the Song Dynasty completely changed the way of life of the Japanese. Let them begin to produce their own unique culture.

Especially after the Song Dynasty was destroyed by the Yuan Dynasty, a large number of technical elites in southern China, in order to avoid the Mongols, went east to Japan, and brought a large number of Chinese porcelain firing technology to Japan.

And it is on the basis of these technologies that the Japanese are based. He began to fire his own porcelain, and Japan began to derive its own unique porcelain culture.

So if we talk about the impact on Japan, then the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty are undoubtedly the two dynasties with the greatest influence.

Therefore, the Japanese will especially like porcelain, especially before the Yuan Dynasty, that is, the porcelain of the Song Dynasty, they almost have a unique obsession with the porcelain of this dynasty, even more obsessed than the Chinese.

At the Tokyo National Museum, there is a special display of Song porcelain, and almost all of them are fine works.

Even azure-glazed official kiln porcelain, which is rare in China, is not uncommon here, and this is what makes any Chinese feel the most heartache.

You must know that this kind of Song porcelain, now in China, is almost extinct, even in the Palace Museum has no collection, the world's largest collection of Song Dynasty official kiln porcelain is the British Museum, and then the Tokyo National Museum in Japan.

I don't have any national treasures in my country, but the two robbers collected the most back then, how can this be embarrassing?

When they are displaying these artifacts, it is simply a kind of red fruit show off, a kind of action that can sprinkle salt on the wounds of the Chinese people.

Looking at these azure glazed porcelain bowls from the official kilns of the Song Dynasty, as well as the jade cong-shaped vase, as well as the double phoenix ear porcelain vase, and the jade supreme incense burner, Jin Muchen just glanced at it a few times, and then hurriedly walked over.

The porcelain of the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty has basically been collected after he patronized the British Museum.

It can even be said that he is now the world's most complete and largest private collector of porcelain from the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty.

At least according to the current national strength of the British, he did not dare to take these things out easily.

After all, although the British are no longer the empire on which the sun never sets, after all, after hundreds of years of accumulation, the so-called tiger will not fall, and they still have a certain amount of influence and residual prestige in the international community.

If he were to show all the porcelain from the five famous kilns that he had in the British Museum, he would be slapping the British in the face.

With the intelligence capabilities of the British, they will certainly not let themselves go easily.

And the things here in Japan, it seems to be different, there is no collection of all the varieties of the five official kilns of the Qi and Song dynasties, it seems that only the official kilns of the Southern Song Dynasty have the most porcelain.

If you take down all these porcelain, hehe, plus the urine that we Chinese and Japanese have always been incompatible with, it seems that it is okay to take it out and anger the Japanese at that time.

Jin Muchen secretly calculated in his heart, he didn't look closely at this exhibition hall, after all, although the porcelain from the official kiln inside can also be regarded as a fine product, it is not particularly outstanding compared to his harvest in the British Museum.

So there's nothing to look at, although he is a flash, but the monitoring pattern here, he has indeed been paying attention.

The monitoring here can be said to be more powerful than the Tang Dynasty cultural relics exhibition hall in front, the cameras are dense, countless, that is, hundreds of square meters of exhibition halls, but there are no less than hundreds of cameras hidden in various corners.

And like the cultural relics of the previous Tang Dynasty, the security measures for the porcelain here are also very strict, and it can be seen that the Japanese are still ruthless in this regard.

He walked out of this exhibition hall with a frown, and then entered the last exhibition hall, which mainly displayed the handwriting of famous masters of ancient Chinese dynasties, or famous calligraphy and painting.

You must know that there are two kinds of Chinese cultural relics that the Japanese love, one is porcelain, and the other is poetry, calligraphy and painting.

And after walking into this exhibition hall, Jin Muchen immediately gasped, not for anything else, just because there are too many treasures here, and they are all too precious.

The colorful jewels made him dizzy, as if he had only felt it when he walked into the British Museum.

Even when I went to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston for the first time, I didn't seem to have such a strong sense of shock.

In fact, he also prepared before he came, after all, he also did his homework before he came, and learned some about the collection of the Tokyo National Museum.

And when the Japanese introduced these collections, they said that in fact, the most precious things in their museum are those famous calligraphy and paintings from China.

They have collected more than 100,000 pieces of Chinese cultural relics, and among these cultural relics, there are eight of them that have been assessed as Japanese national treasures, and four of these eight pieces are famous calligraphy and paintings of ancient China.

These 'Japanese national treasures' are the Southern Song Dynasty Li Sheng's "Xiaoxiang Lying Tour Picture Scroll", the Southern Song Dynasty Li Di's "Red and White Hibiscus Picture", the Southern Song Dynasty Liang Kai's "Snow Landscape Map" and the Yuan Dynasty Indra's "Zen Machine Diagram Broken Jian Han Mountain Found Map" and other four masterpieces.

In fact, in addition to these four masterpieces, the Tokyo National Museum actually has many other precious ancient Chinese paintings, such as Ma Yuan's "Crossing the Water in the Cave Mountain" in the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhu Duan's "Fishing in the Cold River" in the Ming Dynasty, and Zhao Zhiqian's "Flower Picture" in the Qing Dynasty.

As for the calligraphy works, it is even more remarkable, such as the handwriting of famous artists such as Huang Tingjian, Zhu Xi, Zhao Mengfu, Bada Shanren, Zheng Xie, etc., all of which are preserved here.

At that time, when Jin Muchen came to these introductions alone, he really couldn't hold back, jumped up from the sofa at once, and then scolded, you must know that these famous calligraphy and paintings, even in China, can only be seen in those top museums.

And like Zhao Mengfu's handwriting, it is even more impossible to find a piece in the whole country now, but in Japan, you are so special that you actually collect it, how shameless are you Japanese?

Therefore, when Jin Muchen walked into this exhibition hall, it can be said that he had the most complicated feelings, because the calligraphy and paintings collected in this exhibition hall can be said to be the essence of this museum's collection.

Even the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, where he visited before, is famous for its collection of famous Chinese calligraphy and paintings, but there is no place to compare the collection of the Tokyo National Museum.

It can be seen that these collections here are cherished, because many calligraphy and paintings cannot be seen in China, so Jin Muchen is cautious when he looks at them...... (To be continued.) )
