Wang Tian was already restless, especially when the cart was getting closer and closer.

Wang Tian could almost tell that the thing on the cart was not a simple object, even if it was covered with a red cloth.

Queen Theresa walked slowly at this moment, but Wan Er had already arrived at Wang Tian's side.

She said softly with a smile. "Wang Tian, you've been waiting for a long time, haven't you? I think Ambassador Beckhatton should have told you something about me going to collect the treasure. So now, I've brought the treasure, I wonder if Mr. Wang Tian can also present the Old Testament, and we can complete the transaction? ”

How did Wang Tian know that he was going to trade today, but the Old Testament was put in the safe of the hotel by him.

Wang Tianxia said in a second. "Queen Theresa, I don't carry the Old Testament today, but can I take a look at the treasure you brought? If I like it, I don't rule out going back and getting it now. ”

Wang Tian had also been in Paris for a week, so he didn't want to return to China early.

Queen Theresa smiled faintly, then clapped her hands. "Of course it can be appreciated. Quick, you will lift the red cloth of the treasures one by one, and tell Mr. Wang Tian to take a good look at them. ”

When the attendant had heard the order, he first uncovered the cloth.

But when the cloth was lifted, Wang Tian was indeed stunned.

Because I heard Master Beckhatton say that the treasure is related to the Old Summer Palace, but now the treasure that has come into sight does not seem to have much to do with the Old Summer Palace, or it has nothing to do with it at all.

It's just a string of bracelets.

I don't know what material the bracelet is made of.

Wang Tian's surprised expression, Beckhatten was also a little surprised.

Obviously, Queen Theresa said that she would bring the treasure of the Old Summer Palace. I don't know what kind of Beckhattan is at the moment.

Su Lele asked curiously and angrily. "Ambassador Beckhatton, you can't deceive our feelings so much, and believe in you so much."

"Nope. No, I don't know what's going on. "Beckhattan was different.

However, Wang Tian showed a calm face afterwards, and after the initial stunned, he slowly walked in front of this treasure.

Wang Tian has never despised any treasure, since it is cherished by Queen Theresa, and she brought it, then I am afraid that this treasure will not be very bad.

Queen Theresa did not state anything about the treasure. Or maybe she also wants to test Wang Tian.

And the former has already started this bracelet and has gently rubbed it on.

"Okay."

"This thing is good."

After Wang Tian touched his hand, he praised it from time to time.

If you don't look closely at this thing, Wang Tian. I really missed it.

But when you look closely, you know that this is definitely a treasure.

First of all, the material of this bracelet is more precious than the bracelet of agarwood. He is Hai Huang. Haihuang may not be known to everyone, but when it is said by its full name, everyone must laugh.

Haihuang is the sea |

It is also known as southern yellow sandalwood, fragrant yellow sandalwood, and Hainan yellow rosewood.

It is native to the South Island of the China Sea, the Jianfeng Ridge of Diaoluo Mountain, low-altitude plains and hilly areas, and mostly grows in sunny places about 100 meters above sea level in Diaoluo Mountain.

Because of its slow timing, solid wood and beautiful pattern, it has always been ranked as one of the five famous trees, and its brown eyes need to grow for 70 years to become the beautiful shape it is today.

Wang Tian knows that the preciousness and rarity of the southern Huanghuali in the sea. At present, this sea yellow is not only beautiful and soft, but also has an addictive aroma.

Half of this fragrance is undoubtedly from the sea yellow. But the other half is Queen Theresa's body fragrance.

That's right, this string of sea yellow bracelets is believed to have followed Theresa for a long time, and it has been specially moistened by Theresa.

Luster, feel, compared with the general sea yellow, the newly ripe sea yellow bracelet, it is definitely superior.

Wang Tian didn't feel that he liked this treasure a little, his taste was addictive, and its ghost eyes were also very exquisite.

In short, the pattern is beautiful and intoxicating.

Queen Theresa seems to know Wang Tian well.

She knows that people who do carving must be very interested in natural materials, especially the product of the combination of art and nature, which makes people want to return it.

Theresa pinched Wang Tian's thoughts, and before she could say anything, Wang Tian was already drunk.

"How's that, do you like this baby?"

Theresa came up, and sure enough, the fragrance of this sea yellow bracelet was somewhat similar to that of a beautiful woman.

"I love this baby. Sea yellow is our national first-class protected plant, and now it is even more difficult to find 70 years to grow brown eyes, if I guess correctly, this sea yellow bracelet has followed the queen for a long time, right? ”

"Why do you say that?" Queen Theresa wondered.

"Because there is the warmth of the human body on this sea yellow, I guess Queen Theresa must play with it every day."

Wang Tianke knew the value of sea yellow, which was not only more expensive than gold, but also much higher than gold.

In addition, in addition to the simple appreciation value, it also has medicinal value, and wearing it on the body is even more helpful to the body.

Invigorating the blood, dredging, and then refreshing, and most importantly, after people's play, playing, it will become more and more beautiful, and its value will rise accordingly.

Queen Theresa rarely appears with such a demeanor, and Queen Theresa really likes this treasure.

In fact, from the choice of this treasure, or the treasure of the Old Summer Palace, Queen Theresa also hesitated.

This bracelet has been worn by herself for nearly thirty years, which was given to her by her mother when she was eight or nine years old, and whether she wore it the same when her mother was young, Theresa does not know.

It's just that, in order not to destroy the integrity of the Chinese Pavilion in the Old Summer Palace, Theresa made up her mind and took out this sea yellow bracelet with her own accessories.

This is also obtained in China, and it is also written on it, not the Qing Dynasty, but the Ming Dynasty, the name of Empress Xiaozhuang of the Ming Dynasty.

This is not only a work of art, but also a cultural relic, not only a Chinese cultural relic, but also a Western cultural relic.

Witness the history of the changes of the Queen of France.

"Your Excellency, since you have taken out such a precious treasure to exchange it with me. What else can I say, I can take this one. It's just that I don't know what the other thing is. Can I take a look at it as well? ”

Wang Tian agreed without hesitation, but at this time Theresa regretted it a little.

This is a treasure, if it is really handed over to Wang Tian, I am afraid that I will never be able to get the same bracelet again.

Before, Queen Theresa didn't know the value of Haihuang, but this one had what Wang Tian just said. Coupled with her deep feelings for the bracelet, which is equivalent to her own relatives, Theresa is difficult to give up for a moment.

"Mr. Wang Tian. I think I may not be able to exchange this treasure with you. ”

As soon as Theresa said this, Beckhatton was also stunned.

Su Lele expressed surprise, this is not like a queen's style, a little childish.

Wang Tian smiled. The city government is very deep. "Her Majesty. You're not joking with me, right, a minute ago you swore that I could talk to you about Yibao, and recommended this bracelet to me, and now you said that you won't exchange it with me, and you want to take it back, are you sure you're not joking with me? ”

Wang Tian had already squeezed the bracelet in his hand, as bold and firm as he had pinched Theresa's milk.

The look of intolerance made the queen take half a step back.

The sharpness of the eyes, Theresa was speechless.

More. He questioned as if he had been stripped naked by Wang Tian and stood in front of him.

"I, okay. Now that I've made my decision, I'm going to pay for my decision, and I'll leave this bracelet to you. ”

Wang Tianxia put the bracelet between his nose and sucked it for a second, and it felt like Theresa was being sucked.

"Queen Theresa, thank you for the bracelet, I think you can tell me what this second treasure is, right?"

Theresa was a little sad and sad, and the second treasure, prepared by Theresa, was indeed related to the Old Summer Palace.

This treasure is the Zodiac bronze statue of the beast head in the Old Summer Palace, when the attendant opened the red cloth, Wang Tian can see clearly, the material of the copper is red copper, the color of its body is heavy and old, said the zodiac beast head, it does not need to explain too much.

In Chinese history, the animal heads of the 12 zodiac animals in the Old Summer Palace of the Qing Dynasty were well-known. They can be described as national treasure-level antique cultural relics, and back then, the 12 zodiac animal heads were plundered by the British and French forces and scattered in all directions, which was also all the pain of the Chinese people.

said that the zodiac beast head and human-faced beast body made of red copper are very similar to the zodiac beast head in the Old Summer Palace, but Wang Tian did not dare to rashly say that the beast head was lost in the Old Summer Palace, what is it about, Wang Tian couldn't be clearer, so he can't make a conclusion about such a national treasure-level antique cultural relic.

Seeing this beast head come out, Beckhatton's mood at this time was much calmer, and he explained to Su Lele. "Su Lele, look, I didn't lie to you, this treasure is the zodiac horse head in the Old Summer Palace, you see this horse head red bronze statue, there is no problem with the material, the cloud-like shape and curly hair on the top of the head show that this is a typical European-style Prince Charming, which undoubtedly reflects the design style of Italian designer Lang Shining."

Wang Tian, you should know that the great garden of ten thousand gardens in your country, the zodiac beast head of the Yuanmingyuan, the royal garden of the Qing Dynasty, was designed by the Italian Qing Dynasty court painter Lang Shining. ”

Beckhattan said something that he meant that all the outstanding works of China in that era must have had a great deal to do with Western artists.

However, Beckhatton's words are indeed true, the creative design of this zodiac beast head is from Lang Shining, an Italian national.

Therefore, each zodiac is not like the zodiac image in Chinese myths and legends, but it has some similarities with foreign zodiac signs.

Still, Beckhatton's words are a bit of a generalization. More precisely, it should be that part of the fountain in front of the Haiyan Hall of the Old Summer Palace, a royal garden of the Qing Dynasty, was designed by the Italian Qing Dynasty court painter Lang Shining, supervised by the Frenchman Jiang Youren, and finally made by the Qing court craftsmen, which is more complete!

Without the wisdom of the Chinese people, even if these two talented artists are talented, it is difficult to show such an imposing garden, and Wang Tian believes that even without these two artists, it is not certain that this garden will also appear.

said that this was the head of the zodiac horse, Wang Tian looked at it for a while and really didn't find anything wrong.

But that's where the problem comes in.

Everyone knows that the 12 zodiac animal heads were plundered by the British and French forces and scattered everywhere, and the rat head and rabbit head were collected by the French. But as early as five years ago, the French Pinault family announced the return, and the bronze statues of the head of the ox, the head of the monkey, the head of the tiger, the head of the pig and the head of the horse have already returned to China as scheduled, and the head of the horse appears here. Then it's not normal.

Could it be that the animal head that was returned to China at that time was not the real Old Summer Palace, but was recreated by Western sculptors themselves?

Wang Tian was stupid, but Theresa was extremely serious.

"Mr. Wang Tian, five years ago, our French Pinault family announced the return of a batch of bronze statues and beast heads to China, and then these treasures were also successfully returned to China. It's just that you may not know about it until then. This matter has been very controversial in our country, and the Pinault family was finally forced to come under pressure. Mix the two zodiac beast heads.

Their family asked our famous French sculptor at that time, Chelsea, to make a similar zodiac animal head, and among the several animal heads returned to your country, the horse head and the cow capital were made by Chelsea.

Two years later, Chelsea suffered a serious illness for unknown reasons. He died of illness not long after. At that time, we in France still circulated that we could not deceive the Chinese, and the voice of criticism continued for a long time. But this turmoil was quickly blocked in our country, so it has never reached your country. ”

"So, the real horse head and ox head are still in your France?" Wang Tian was extremely shocked.

"Yes, it has always been in France, and then our Elizabeth family recovered two animal heads, and the animal heads have been treasured in the Palace of Fontainebleau. So I took it out today to express my apologies to you Chinese. I also wanted to take this opportunity to dedicate the real horse head to you. ”

Theresa knew that this treasure Wang Tian would not be able to refuse. As for what turmoil Wang Tian will set off in China, will he bury this truth, he has such a valuable zodiac horse head, or return it to the motherland and uncover this conspiracy.

That's Wang Tian's own business.

Wang Tian really couldn't refuse, or rather, he couldn't refuse, the zodiac beast head has always been looking for the motherland, hoping to take back these treasures.

Today, the dragon's head, snake head, sheep's head, rooster head, and dog's head in the 12 zodiac animal heads are still missing...... It would be a good thing to be able to recover this horse's head.

"Queen Theresa, I think if you could sincerely apologize, I think you could give me the head of the bull as well. I will bring it back to my homeland with me. ”

"However, I can only give you seven treasures, and our Old Testament is indeed precious, but it is not worth enough for us to exchange eight treasures."

Theresa has her principles.

"So what if I say I can redeem it with my money? I think my sincerity should impress you, and of course, if you can't buy it with money, I think the Statue of Victory in the Louvre must have the conditions for this exchange. ”

Wang Tian mentioned this immortal work of art, indeed, in the West, this is a masterpiece, Wang Tian is not ready to bring it back to China, stay in France, his own work will have more vitality.

I will go down in history here.

Theresa smiled, and there was obvious joy on her lips, exchanging such a precious statue of victory for what could not have been better.

"Yes, if you are willing to exchange the Goddess of Victory for the Statue of Victory, we are very willing to give you the head of the ox together, and we hope that these two zodiac animal heads can make you feel confident that you are looking for other animal heads."

Wang Tian thanked him, and then he had to shift his final focus to the last treasure to Yi Bao.

Yes, the Empress Dowager Cixi's Night Pearl now has one in her hand, and the other one is on Queen Theresa, if you can get this Night Pearl, you can go back to China and gather the other five Night Pearls.

Then the last three night pearls are probably not far from being collected.

Of course, if you can get another night pearl from Paris, that is the most beautiful ending.

"Queen Theresa, I think you know I got a Night Pearl yesterday. To be honest, the night pearl of our Empress Dowager Cixi in the Qing Dynasty really does not have much historical significance for your country, such as the influence of the Old Testament on your Western countries. ”

Theresa did not show any disgust with Wang Tian's tone of speech, and was more accustomed to the way she communicated with this young Chinese man.

"Didn't I say it, my Night Pearl will be given to you. Actually, I can give it to you, because I have a lot of jewelry. ”

"I know this, Queen Theresa has always been generous, but as far as I know, in Paris, France, in addition to this pearl of the night that you own, another one seems to be treasured in the Château de Fontainebleau, do you give me that one by the way?"

Theresa didn't know who told Wang Tian about this, but Wang Tian knew about it, and it was brought up at this meeting, and Theresa really didn't know how to refuse.

Theresa shook her head slightly, but it wasn't that she disagreed, it was just that she was helpless. "Okay, you said so, what else do I say, that one will also be given to you, as my future dowry for you and Su Lele, you can keep this jewel well."

Su Lele lowered his head shyly for a while.

"Thank you, Queen Theresa."

When Wang Tian heard it, he smiled heartily, with these two night pearls, plus the moment before him, there were five in the country, and now there are only two night pearls that have been lost outside.

Of course, those two are also the two largest of the ten jewels, one is contained in the mouth of the Empress Dowager Cixi, and the other is the largest among the others.

Wang Tian was looking for them, but that's another story.

After talking to Queen Theresa about Yi Bao, Wang Tian will rush to his residence and exchange the Old Testament, and Beckhattan will also go home at this time and bring the Yongle Ceremony and the cloisonné pagoda.

Wang Tian exchanged a treasure and his own creation of the Goddess of Victory statue for Paris, France, eight treasures from two museums, and Wang Tian definitely earned it on this trip to Paris. (To be continued......)
