The sisters of the Eleventh Orchestra were very surprised to see Xiao Shi returning with a pipa full of ancient charm and extreme workmanship, and the captain Gu Le retracted his legs and asked Xiao Shi to sit down quickly: "Sit down quickly, then the show will not change, the next song you will play, or "Ambush on All Sides", this pipa is so beautiful." ”

Xiao Shi held the hem of the long skirt in one hand and the luodian rosewood five-string pipa in the other, and bent down to slip into the band: "Mr. Yang found it, the timbre is simply amazing." ”

Gu Le gestured to an ok, and a string of melodious bamboo flutes ended this song Yangguan three stacks.

The band adjusted the seating order slightly, highlighting Xiao Shi, it was the beginning of the long call, still holding the pipa and half covering his face, plucking the strings three or two times on the shaft, and there was love before the tune.

Xiao Shi's rain-like wheel fingers diverted the guests' attention from the Heilan diamond, and the blue beam of light shone on the luodian rosewood five-string pipa, which combined with the music of "Ambush on All Sides" made people feel like they had crossed a thousand years of reincarnation.

There are too many knowledgeable people in tonight's guests, and it is difficult for such a wonderful Tang Shengyin not to attract attention.

Coincidentally, He Yong, the military attache who came to excavate the tourmaline lotus with the embassy last time, and Xu Zhi, the director of the Cultural Relics Administration, were both invited to come. Originally, they wanted to talk to Yang Ping to see if there were any new gains in this product recently, but now they were completely attracted by the luodian red sandalwood five-string pipa, and the two of them came to the band to listen carefully.

Director Xu squinted, intoxicated by the noisy pipa sound of the big strings like torrential rain and the small strings cut like a whisper: "Well, Xiao Yang is going to give us a big surprise again, Lao He, you listen to this "Ambush on All Sides" is the noisy and miscellaneous bullets described in Bai Juyi's poem, and the big beads and small beads fall on the jade plate. The bottom of the flower is slippery, and it is difficult to go under the drift ice of the secluded spring. The ice fountain is cold and the strings are condensed. There is no pause in silence. Don't have gloom and hatred. Silence is better than sound at this point. The silver bottle burst into the water slurry. The iron cavalry stood out with the sound of swords and guns. At the end of the song, beware of drawing, the four strings sound like cracks...... Good! All right! ”

He Yong is a soldier, and he can hear the kind of artistic conception that makes people's hearts surge, kill decisively, and give up who is me, and nodded: "This little girl is good, she can pop up this kind of artistic conception at a young age." ”

Director Xu took a sip of his wine glass and smiled: "I'm afraid it's not the player's problem, your focus is wrong." Look at her pipa, if I'm not mistaken, it should be the Tang Luodian rosewood five-string pipa, there is only one in the world, hidden in the Shosoin Temple of Todaiji Temple in Nara, Japan, which is a Japanese imperial grade cultural relic. This one? Hehe......"

He Yong was also well-informed, and was puzzled: "Won't it?" I've seen a lot of museums have this kind of pipa on display. ”

Director Xu disdainful: "Yes, many museums have luodian rosewood five-string pipa, but those are all molds, and they can only be imitated shoddyly." It's going to fall apart when you touch it, let alone be able to play such a beautiful piece of music. ”

"Really?" He Yong put down his glass. "Then why do you say that this pipa has something to do with Xiao Yang? This lute is supposed to be a player, right? ”

Director Xu touched his bow tie and analyzed: "You see, when the band went downstairs just now, this girl dropped the pipa, and I didn't see it clearly when it was far away, but the pipa she was holding at that time was yellow, and it was definitely not a luodian rosewood five-stringed pipa." She didn't show up in the previous performance, and she didn't come out with a luodian rosewood five-string pipa until just now, can it be inferred that her pipa was broken and couldn't be repaired, so she couldn't perform. This is Xiao Yang's territory, could it be Xiao Yang's emergency and take out his collection for the little girl to perform? Otherwise, I can't think of a better reason, even if it is a high-quality imitation of the Luodian rosewood five-string pipa in later generations, such a process, such a timbre is by no means something that a little girl can afford. ”

He Yong was not convinced: "Is it so advanced? Can't afford to use high-quality imitations? ”

Director Xu nodded: "Yes, I definitely can't afford it." The luodian rosewood five-string pipa is now lost, but it is often seen flying in the sky playing the five-string pipa on Dunhuang murals. The luodian rosewood five-string pipa of the Shosoin in Japan brought the luodian inlay skills of the Tang Dynasty to the extreme, showing the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. This Raden Rosewood Five-String Pipa does not look to be inferior to the one that survives in Japan, but the ornamentation is different, and the surviving one in Japan has a tortoiseshell sheet pasted on the ventral rod dial, on which a camel rider is inlaid with a pattern of a camel riding a lute. The pattern embedded in the luodian on the panel of this five-string pipa is the rebound pipa of the flying goddess, which is even better in artistic conception and exquisite in the world. ”

He Yong was stimulated by the passionate sound of the pipa, and hated: "China's good things have been plundered by these invaders, and such a national treasure is actually stored in Japan!" ”

Director Xu corrected with a smile: "The marauders are hateful, but the Luodian Rosewood Five-String Pipa in Japan's Shosoin is really not plundered, and I really want to thank others for their respect and protection of the cultural heritage of the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Oh? How? He Yong asked with a squint.

"Japan's Shosoin that Luodian rosewood five-stringed pipa is a gift from the Tang Dynasty court of our country to Emperor Shengmu of Japan, brought back to Japan by the Japanese envoy to the Tang Dynasty," Xu Secretary has a very comprehensive knowledge reserve of cultural relics, "After the death of Emperor Shengmu of Japan, the treasures used during his lifetime were hidden in the Shosoin of Todaiji Temple in Nara, no one was disturbed for more than a thousand years, and there were not many rare treasures left in the warehouse, there are as many as four or five pieces of superb musical instruments alone, and this Luodian rosewood five-stringed pipa is the first of them, It is the most precious treasure of the Japanese Imperial Collection. ”

He sighed: "The five-string pipa was lost in the Song Dynasty, which is also the sadness that China has experienced many dynastic changes, and the other aspect also shows that people have done a better job in this area than we do. ”

He Yong also sighed, this is a fact, and it is not a status quo that can be changed by a few complaints from angry youth: "Alas, don't sigh, Xiao Yang has gone downstairs, you go and catch it alive." ”

Yang Ping didn't know that he was being remembered, and as soon as he went downstairs, he was introduced by Luo Hanwei to a few friends.

"Yang Sheng, this is Lord Wilson, I mentioned to you, this is Mr. Kong, he has a private museum in London," Luo Hanwei introduced one by one, "this is Mr. Ke Ruijin, the director of the Museum of Applied Arts in Bergen. ”

Yang Ping shook hands one by one and said hello: "Fortunately, I will be glad to meet." ”

Wilson, a handsome old man in his sixties with a typical Europa appearance, bowed slightly: "Mr. Yang." Would I have had the pleasure of speaking with you privately? ”

Yang Ping nodded. He didn't understand what Luo Hanwei meant. The golden statue of the god Horus has been given to him, and he can exchange it with this lord, so what else can he find himself?

Just as he was about to go to the study, Officer Xu behind him called out to him: "Xiao Yang, big money, congratulations, haha." ”

"Yo, Director Xu. Mr. He, there is a long way to go," Yang Ping was very kind to his compatriots and stopped, "Is that tourmaline lotus on display?" ”

Director Xu nodded: "It's already on display, Director Jiang and Director Yin, as well as us cultural relics workers, thank you very much." ”

"Hey, what's the matter, what's polite," Yang Ping looked at Luo Hanwei and his party and came up with an idea. Pull these two up, in case there is something that can't be wiped out, there is a excuse: "Let's go." I happened to go to the study with these friends from the European antique circle to chat and be together. ”

Luo Hanwei couldn't say anything, nodded and went upstairs together.

Yang Ping beckoned everyone to sit down, pressed the copper calling bell, asked Tom Sheng to come up and pour tea for everyone, and bowed out.

Luo Hanwei took a sip of tea: "Yang Sheng, take out the golden statue of the god Horus for Lord Wilson to appraise, he couldn't hold it just now." ”

Wilson put down the saucer and eagerly said, "Yes, I haven't seen a gold statue of Horus yet, it's usually made of metal or stone, if it's genuine, I can buy it at a high price." ”

Yang Ping took out the golden statue of the god Horus from the big backpack next to the desk and put it on the desk: "Hehe, it belongs to Mr. Luo now." ”

Wilson laughed dryly, leaned against his desk and began to look up and down at the statue of the Golden God Horus.

Yang Ping sat still, opened the cigar box on the desk, and distributed one to everyone, Wilson didn't care, and Director Xu refused to smoke.

Ke Ruijin has sparse hair, wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and has a white gold diamond-encrusted ring on his hand. ”

Yang Ping laughed, pressed the bell to call people, and beckoned Tomson to send a bottle of red wine, he wanted to let him listen to Coke again, but he couldn't help it.

Thomson poured red wine for everyone, Ke Ruijin shook the wine glass, and sniffed deeply: "Mr. Yang is really good at life, not only has several beautiful wives, but also has Heilan diamonds, and even they wear world-class colored diamonds, jewelry from the Middle Kingdom, which is amazing." ”

Mr. Kong is not Chinese, he is an authentic British, and he owes his body very gentlemanly thanks to Thomson: "Thank you, hehe, Mr. Yang, we are very interested in the antiques of the Middle Kingdom of Egypt, especially those few amulet jewelry with totems, I don't know if Mr. Yang can cut love?" ”

Yang Ping took a sip of his cigar and his cheeks hurt: "Those are the gifts I gave to my lover, I won't transfer them, I'm sorry." ”

"Oh, that's a shame."

He Yong and Director Xu glanced at each other, and their eyes were full of amazement, this Xiao Yang actually had Egyptian cultural relics in his hand, which meant that it was not only a treasure but also a lot of them!

Wilson couldn't help but be amazed: "Tsk, what a miracle, Egypt had such exquisite metallurgical craftsmanship more than 2,000 years ago, you look at the demeanor of the god Horus, how realistic the shape of the falcon is, how smooth the lines are, the crown is a cobra, how expressive the statue of the queen between the legs of the falcon, and there are inscriptions in Egypt, Elamite and ancient Persia on the base, which are too precious." ”

Luo Hanwei laughed: "Old Wilson, this statue is a lot higher than your bucket colors in terms of material, age and meaning, I am not willing to exchange." ”

Wilson's face turned red, and his eyes were anxious: "Oh, Luo! Are you still a gentleman? How can what I said not count, I will exchange it with you with that Tianzi jar. ”

Luo Hanwei is shrewd: "Haha, there is only one statue in the world, and there are more than a dozen Tianzi jars." ”

Wilson turned to Yang Ping: "Yang, my friend, can't I buy it directly from you?" ”

Yang Ping didn't give it for nothing, and handed him a cigar: "I'm afraid not, Mr. Luo has already bought this statue at a very high price, and I can't help it." ”

Wilson was so determined by the golden statue of Horus that he gritted his teeth and cut off the cigar cap, as if he were cutting Luo Hanwei's fingers: "Okay, Locke, tell me your terms." ”

Luo Hanwei shrugged, looking indifferent: "I think this statue can be exchanged for all your Doucai porcelain, well, all of them." ”

Yang Ping was so shocked that his tongue almost didn't bite off, and He Yong and Secretary Xu were also sweating, this is really a lion's mouth!

So the question is, in China Chenghua Doucai are rare treasures, how many can a British lord have? Also all. (To be continued......)
