Chapter 33 Qingming Riverside Map
Emperor Jiajing's life was fond of treasures. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć There is a good one on the information, but there will be a bad one on the bottom. His courtiers were familiar with his temperament, so during the reign of Emperor Jiajing, the ministers competed for rare treasures.
On this day, Wang Qigong, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, actually presented Emperor Jiajing with Zhang Zeduan's "Qingming Riverside Map" in the Northern Song Dynasty!
Wang Qigong is the right-hand man of Shoufu Zhai Luan. Yan Song and his party naturally criticized him for offering treasures.
The focus of criticism is nothing more than the authenticity of this "Qingming Riverside Picture".
Zhai and Yan fought for the authenticity of this picture in the Yongshou Palace. Emperor Jiajing was tired of hearing the quarrels between his courtiers, so he simply issued an edict and posted the emperor's list - those who can distinguish the authenticity of the "Qingming Riverside Map" will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold.
Chen Di has been waiting for the Ministry of Officials these days. As Yan Song expected, Zhai Luan is also the secretary of the ministry, so he naturally will not give Chen Di, a "strict party", a good face. Emperor Jiajing's edict was to give Chen Dijia a third-level merit-based appointment, but he did not say how he was appointed.
This gave Zhai Luan opportunity. Since it is a merit-based appointment, of course I have to give you Chen Di a fat difference! The errand will definitely be given to you, but you will have to wait. Wait, wait until any of the Zhengwupin officials die of old age or Ding is worried, and you will make up for it.
Officials in the capital called Chen Di's current state "hung up by the ministry". In the capital, officials like Chen Di who were hung up by the Ministry of Officials had eighty if not a hundred.
Chen Di doesn't care, he walks around the capital on weekdays, flirts with Xiaoqing, Xiaobai, Xiaohong, and then learns boxing and kicking from Liang Erhei, and his life is comfortable.
On this day, Chen Di was wandering on the street when he suddenly saw someone gathered around to read a notice.
Chen Di leaned over and saw that the notice was actually written on yellow paper.
The official notices of the Ming Dynasty were all written on white paper. The notice written on yellow paper is the emperor's list, and its weight is about the same as that of the holy decree.
A few civilians whispered.
"As long as you can figure out the authenticity of this painting, you can get a reward of one hundred taels of gold?"
"Stop dreaming! This is the "Qingming Riverside Map", and there are many forgeries of this painting in the past dynasties, and almost all of them can be fake. ā
"Yes. Even the leader of the antique players in the capital, Old Man Chen, didn't dare to reveal the emperor list, you better don't dream about it. Beware of revealing the emperor's list and can't say why, you will be cut off by the emperor! ā
Several onlookers were talking.
Chen Di came to be interested. You must know that he has read a book of "Painting the Forest and Wild Records" in modern times, which has a detailed record of the authenticity of the "Qingming Riverside Picture".
Chen Di thought, this Emperor Jiajing cultivated immortals every day, and it is estimated that the front foot issued a holy decree to let him be appointed by the third level, and the back foot forgot about himself. It just so happens that he took this opportunity to show his face in front of Emperor Jiajing, maybe he will reward himself for his lack as soon as he is happy!
Chen Di walked in front of the emperor list and unveiled the emperor list.
The onlookers whispered, this teenage doll dared to reveal the emperor's list. The emperor is not a child's house, so be careful that you can't eat and walk around.
Under the emperor's list, there is a servant of the Shuntian Mansion.
The official said angrily: "Bold yellow-haired boy, the emperor list is what you want to expose?" ā
Chen Di sincerely wanted to tease the officer, and said with a smile: "It turns out that this thing is the emperor's list." I'm wrong, I'll get some paste and stick it up, can't I? ā
The official sneered: "Since the emperor list has been revealed, you kid will be in great trouble." ā
After the official finished speaking, he took out a chain and locked Chen Di.
The official escorted Chen Di to the lobby of Shuntianfu.
Yin Sun Chunbin of Shuntian Mansion asked the officer: "How did you catch a child and still hold the imperial list in your hand?" ā
The official said: "My lord, this yellow-haired boy doesn't know the height of the sky, and he actually unveiled the emperor's list. ā
Sun Chunbin looked at Chen Di carefully.
This Shuntian Mansion Yin Sun Chunbin, who can be a parent official at the feet of the Son of Heaven, is naturally exquisite. He saw that Chen Di was not dressed like an ordinary child, so he asked Chen Di: "Little boy, who are you?" ā
There are nobles everywhere in the capital, and Sun Chunbin is the youngest son of Chen Di.
Chen Di said: "Under Chen Di." ā
Sun Chunbin thought to himself, Chen Di, why is this name so familiar?
He patted his head: "My God, it turned out to be the first in the second class of last year's big competition, the one in Henan who rode a donkey and led hundreds of righteous people to break tens of thousands of anti-people!" ā
Chen Di smiled: "It's exactly below." ā
Sun Chunbin slapped the servant: "Don't hurry up and untie Lord Chen!" ā
After loosening the tie, Sun Chunbin asked again: "This emperor list?" ā
Chen Di said: "I am not talented, but I have heard that the old people have heard of the method of identifying the authenticity of the "Qingming Riverside Map". ā
Sun Chunbin said: "Lord Chen is the top name in the second class, so he is naturally a rich scholar and a talented man. So much better. Now that you have unveiled the emperor's list, I will immediately send someone to send you into the palace! ā
Sun Chunbin sent someone to send Chen Di to the gate of the palace.
Lu Fang, Father-in-law Lu was standing in front of the palace gate and waiting for him.
When Lu Fang saw that the person who unveiled the emperor's list was Chen Di, he laughed and said: "Who was the miscellaneous family at that time, it turned out to be you a monkey cub!" ā
The monkey cub was originally a curse, but it could come out of Lu Fang's mouth, which showed that Lu Fang regarded Chen Di as his own.
Lu Fang took Chen Di into the Yongshou Palace. Emperor Jiajing heard that someone had unveiled the imperial list, and ordered Yan Song, Zhai Luan, Wang Qigong and other ministers to enter the palace.
After the ministers arrived, Emperor Jiajing finally sat lazily on the throne of Yongshou Palace.
"The person who announced the emperor's list went to the palace to reply." Emperor Jiajing opened Chrysostom.
When Chen Di heard Xuan come up to the palace, Yan Song, Zhai Luan, and Wang Qigong said in unison: "How could it be him?" ā
Chen Di bowed three times and bowed nine times to Emperor Jiajing. Emperor Jiajing asked, "Who are you?" ā
Chen Di smiled bitterly in his heart, this Emperor Jiajing was really stupid all day long. Last year, he was still hand-picking himself to be the top two in the second class, and he won't recognize himself when he sees him again this year.
Chen Di said: "Emperor Qi, minister Chen Di, the former commander of Qinyang County, Henan, is now an alternate in the Ministry of Officials. ā
Emperor Jiajing finally remembered who Chen Di was, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be you!" At the age of fourteen, he rode a donkey to pacify tens of thousands of anti-people teenagers! ā
Chen Di said: "It's Weichen!" ā
Emperor Jiajing said: "Since you have unveiled the emperor's list, you must distinguish the authenticity of this "Qingming Riverside Map" for me!" ā
Chen Di said: "This is nature. ā
Shoufu Zhai Luan interjected: "Chen Di, do you know that even the head of the Hanlin Academy said that this picture is true. ā
The second assistant Yan Song didn't give Zhai Luan face at all: "The master of the Hanlin Academy said that it is true, this picture must be true?" ā
Emperor Jiajing was tired of the two ministers under his command arguing all day long, and waved his hand and said, "It was Chen Di who unveiled the emperor's list, not the two of you." Listen to him. Chen Di, let's take a look at this painting first. ā
Gonggong Lu took a picture scroll and was about to open it.
Chen Di said: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't look at this painting first, but only tells a story." ā
Emperor Jiajing said: "It's strange, since you want to distinguish the authenticity of the painting, why don't you look at the painting?" Okay, let's hear you out. ā
Chen Di talked eloquently: "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival was made by Zhang Zeduan in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is said that the value is light. Valuable paintings, forged fakes are naturally many. The fakes of "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" are the most realistic in the Yongle period, and they can almost be realistic. The painters of Fujian were afraid that the imitations they copied would be used by people with bad intentions in later generations to harm people, so they made marks on the fake paintings. ā
Shoufu Zhai Luan interrupted Chen Di's words: "It's really unbelievable, we have seen this painting many times, where is there any mark?" ā
Emperor Jiajing glared at Zhai Luan and asked Chen Di, "Signs?" Tell me more about it. ā
Chen Di also said: "There is a picture in the Qingming Shanghe picture, which depicts four gamblers rolling dice. Two of the dice are six-pointed, and one is spinning. ā
Yan Song nodded: "There is indeed such a picture in the middle of the scroll. ā
Chen Di said: "This mark is on the mouth of the dice thrower!" ā
