Chapter Eighty-Five: Treasure Appreciation in the Antique City (5)
"The shape of this inkstone is strange, it should be polished and carved in the original shape of the stone, and it is not deliberately made into an ordinary inkstone, it can be said that it gives people a feeling of free and easy, the stone of the inkstone obviously has traces of the end stone, this should be a side of the inkstone, well, this line of small characters on the back, is what you said before, 'its color is warm, natural and simple...... Lingdong observation envoy Lu Chuan Pang Ying question. ββ
"Lingdong Observation Envoy, this observation envoy is a local administrator who appeared in the late Tang Dynasty, the full name is the observation and disposal envoy, and then the Song Dynasty continued to use, abolished in the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty was used again, and in the early years of the Republic of China, the observation envoy was transformed and called Daoyin, so, the place name of Lingdong is used by almost all dynasties, Luchuan Pang Ying, these two names are a little unfamiliar, hey, Pang Ying, I seem to have seen it in a book, it seems to be a famous event in a historical book, I want to think about it."
Gao Cunzhi picked up the inkstone and recounted the information he observed while observing, which made Chen Yi feel a little enlightened and solved some of his previous doubts, including the shape of the inkstone and the origin of these official positions.
And later, when I saw the small words on the back of the inkstone, I couldn't help but be a little puzzled, Zuihou seemed to think of something, and fell into thought.
Uncle Liu had expectations on his face, with Gao Cunzhi's experience, he naturally knew more than him, and similarly, he would read more and more miscellaneous books than him, but what was the famous event with Pang Ying, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled, he searched for several famous Ming histories in his memory, and it seemed that he couldn't think of Pang Ying alone, all of whom were famous figures.
"Oh, I thought about it, this can be regarded as a big deal in the Ming Dynasty, Beren, help me go to the study and bring the one hundred and ninety-fifth volume of the Ming History." Gao Cunzhi thought for a while, seemed to think about it, and then said with a smile to the middle-aged man surnamed Li next to him.
History of the Ming Dynasty, Uncle Liu showed a puzzled look on his face, the History of the Ming Dynasty, a book that records the history of the Ming Dynasty, he has also studied and watched it, but he can't remember whether there is Pang Ying in it.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel very surprised by Gao Cunzhi's memory, and he really deserved to be a master in the antique world, and even the history of such a small person could be remembered, the history of the Ming Dynasty, a total of 322 volumes, including 24 volumes of the Benji, 75 volumes of Zhi, 220 volumes of biography, and 13 volumes of the table, which can be said to have a huge amount of words.
"Master Gao, I admire your memory very much, and you can remember such a small thing." Uncle Liu couldn't help it for a while, and expressed his admiration to Gao Cunzhi.
Hearing Uncle Liu's words, Gao Cunzhi shook his head and smiled, "Boss Liu, I can remember it because in the history of the Ming Dynasty, this incident was very famous, and the main personnel of the incident were powerful in the Ming Dynasty. β
"Ji Gang's ambush, this is indeed a very big event, Ji Gang because of his meritorious contribution to assisting Zhu Di, the king of Yan, in the coup d'Γ©tat, after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he was promoted to the commander of Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei only obeys the emperor's orders, and can arrest anyone, including the emperor's relatives, with great power."
"Later, it was reported that his family privately raised a large number of outlaws, and made tens of thousands of knives and guns, bows and arrows, with the intention of rebellion, Zhu Di, who had long been suspicious and wary of it, was furious, and arrested him without doing any investigation, and the interrogation ended hastily after less than a day, and on the same day he was executed for the crime of rebellion, such a speed is unique in the history of the Ming Dynasty, this is the famous story of Ji Gang's ambush."
Uncle Liu slowly recalled the story of Ji Gang, Ji Gang in the history of the Ming Dynasty, it can be said that he accounted for a lot of pen and ink, the position of Jinyiwei commander, the power can be said to be under one person, above ten thousand people, and even the emperor's relatives and relatives cannot be compared with it, so he still has some impressions of this celebrity being executed.
"Boss Liu, don't you remember this too, hehe." Gao Cunzhi couldn't help but smile.
"Master Gao, although I remember it, but I still have no impression of Pang Ying, the history of the Ming Dynasty records that after Ji Gang was executed, all his relatives, regardless of their age, were issued border gates, and some cronies were also executed, could it be said that Pang Ying was among these people." Uncle Liu smiled bitterly, and then couldn't help but guess.
At this time, the middle-aged man surnamed Li took the history of the Ming Dynasty that Gao Cunzhi said, and after Gao Cunzhi took it, he opened it and said with a smile: "Boss Liu's guess is very correct, Pang Ying is Ji Gang's cronies, oh, I found it, here, there is a written record that there will be willow shooting activities during the Dragon Boat Festival in the Ming Dynasty, which will be broken with a bow and arrow, and the one who takes it on a horse wins, but Ji Gang pointed to the deer as a horse, and told his cronies to pacify Pang Ying that he would pretend to shoot the arrow off, and then Pang Ying would break the wicker and make it look like he was shot, Cheer loudly and see how the princes and ministers next to them react. β
"After that, Ji Gang missed an arrow, Pang Ying broke the wicker and cheered loudly, and a group of princes and ministers naturally saw it in their eyes, but because of Ji Gang's great power, they had to pretend to be grandsons one by one, and no one stood up to oppose it, which shows Ji Gang's trust in Pang Ying, and the latter paragraph is that after Ji Gang's accusations were issued, his henchmen, Yuan Jiang, Wang Qian, Li Chun, Pang Ying and others were all killed."
Gao Cunzhi smiled, put down the history of the Ming Dynasty, and looked at the inkstone, "Although the history of the Ming Dynasty does not accurately record whether Pang Ying served as an observer envoy in Lingdong, but his official position is the Jinyi Wei Jinfu envoy, and the Zhenfu Division has many tasks, often traveling around the country to supervise officials in the world, and it is conceivable that Pang Ying went to Lingdong to serve as an observer envoy." β
"And the workmanship of this inkstone, just like the words inscribed by Lu Chuan Pang Ying, its color is warm and moist, natural and simple, it should be discussed as a treasure, such a precious inkstone, how can ordinary people get it casually, Pang Ying has a brocade background, it is naturally very easy to get, of course, all this is only under our guesses, maybe this inkstone will be inscribed by Pang Ying."
"Therefore, our speculation is established, this inkstone should be in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and it is the inkstone of the inscription of Pang Ying, the cronies of Ji Gang, the advantages of this inkstone, coupled with the inscription of Pang Ying above, it can be said that the value of this inkstone is very large, and it should be more than one million." Gao Cunzhi touched the inkstone and said with a smile.
Some of the history is too old, and some people have not recorded it at all, so although all the information just now shows that this may be an inkstone inscribed by Pang Ying, a confidant of Ji Gang in the Ming Dynasty, it is only possible.
"More than a million, Brother Yi, your two things together are worth nearly 10 million." Hearing Gao Cunzhi's words, Qi Tianchen said in some surprise.
Just two things are worth nearly 10 million, which is unimaginable, his father has bought no less than 10 million things over the years, but there are very few things that are really valuable.
Since he bought the jade pendant in Zangbao Zhai, it has only been less than a month, but Chen Yi has a few antiques worth more than one million, which makes Qi Tianchen's heart full of shock.
Million, Chen Yi was a little surprised, after all, the value of inkstones is lower than that of calligraphy and paintings, and you can often see many calligraphy and paintings over one million, but there are very few inkstones that can exceed one million, this inkstone can reach one million, I am afraid it is also for the sake of Pang Ying's inscription, the value of the celebrity effect is definitely very large.
"Chen Xiaoyou, I don't know if this inkstone is for sale." Looking at the surprised expression on Chen Yi's face, Gao Cunzhi suddenly smiled, and in the face of a huge fortune of five or six million, he was unmoved, let alone this only one million money.
Chen Yi still shook his head, "Uncle Gao, if it is a leak I picked up, it can be sold, but the heirloom must not be sold." β
"Okay, I know, Chen Xiaoyou, I don't know if you brought anything else besides these two things." Gao Cunzhi nodded with a slight smile, and then said, but his eyes couldn't help but look at the nylon bag on the chair next to Qi Tianchen, if the bag contained an antique that Chen Yi needed to identify, then the volume of this antique would never be small.
