Chapter 975: Rare Treasure (I)
When Cheng Yue arrived at Pingzhang Mansion soon, Ah Hema got off the car and personally carried out the bridles for Cheng Yue's carriage, and led Cheng Yue's carriage to stop in front of the mansion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info waited for Cheng Yue to get out of the car, and Ahma led Cheng Yue to talk and laugh while slowly walking towards Pingzhang Mansion, and specially staggered half of his body, not daring to walk side by side with Cheng Yue.
Ahma's sons and nephews stepped forward to salute and saluted, for for them it was the first time in their lives that they had taken such great pains to welcome a prince.
Cheng Yue came to Ahma's inner house, and the five concubines, who were dressed up in fancy clothes, hurriedly stepped forward to salute, attracting a pair of charming eyes with affection, while Yu Ji lowered her eyebrows and hid behind the other four concubines.
Cheng Yue said a few words to them, and then he was invited to the main seat by Ahma, and Ahma led his nephew to accompany the prime minister.
Cheng Yue looked around and found that there seemed to be fewer officials in Shangshu Province than in the past, which was the inevitable result of the power of Zhongshu Province and Shangshu Province.
The banquet was extremely rich, and Ahma spared no expense to bring the delicacies of the mountains and seas that could be found to Cheng Yue, but the most important thing about Cheng Yue's trip was of course not to eat.
After three rounds of drinking, there was laughter and laughter in the hall, and the officials of Shangshu Province were surging with Cheng Yue's words, and the sycophants were scrambling.
Cheng Yue responded with a smile, and everyone in Shangshu Province was happy.
Seeing that Cheng Yue was in a good mood, Ahma immediately stepped forward to toast and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, the minister has recently obtained a few rare things, can the prince take a look?" ”
Cheng Yue knew that this was Ahma's secret talk with him, and said with a smile: "Oh? Pingzhang feels rare, it must be extremely precious, you might as well pay a look. ”
Ahmad smiled and said, "In this case, the prince invites his ministers to come." ”
Cheng Yue got up and bowed his hand to a cadre of important ministers in Shangshu Province, and then entered the inner house with Ahma.
Ahma led Cheng Yue to his study, dismissed the waiter, closed the door, personally made tea for Cheng Yue, and respectfully served it to Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue slowly took a few sips and said with a smile: "Good tea, thank you Pingzhang for your hospitality." ”
Ahma said with a smile: "The prince does not dislike the humble house, and the ministers are grateful. In order to show his heart, the minister has two treasures, please taste the prince. As he spoke, he opened a cabinet and took out a jasper toad from a beautiful box.
The world's beautiful jade, Cheng Yue has traveled to this era, and he has seen it and I don't know how much, so I didn't think so, but when I took a closer look, I was taken aback!
This jasper toad is the size of a palm, the whole body is emerald green, there is no impurity, it is rare, and even rarer, its eyes are black, and it is also a natural color, and there are a few drops of water wrapped in it! Look again, the two eyes are symmetrical, all of them contain water, the whole toad, vivid, the eyes seem to be able to turn at any time, and the real toad is the same, it can be called the treasure of the world!
Seeing Cheng Yue's surprised expression, Ahma smiled and said, "How is this thing?" Lord Wang, there is only one jade toad in the whole world, and it took a lot of effort and a lot of money to get it. ”
Cheng Yue nodded and exclaimed: "Sure enough, it is the best in jade, and it is priceless." I have seen almost all kinds of precious jade collected by the officials of the Great Song Dynasty, and there are many beautiful jades in my house, but none of them can be compared with it. Probably except for the missing heirloom jade seal, there is no such divine jade in the world. ”
Ahmada laughed and said, "The prince has won the award, although the jade toad is precious, but another treasure of the minister, the prince is only afraid that he likes it more." ”
Cheng Yue couldn't help but be curious, and said, "Oh? That's an eye-opener. ”
Ahma took out a key from an extremely secret place, opened another cabinet, and carefully took out a long wooden box from the cabinet, and a faint scent of sandalwood immediately rushed into Cheng Yue's nose.
Cheng Yue knew at a glance that the box must contain extremely precious calligraphy and paintings. However, the Great Song Dynasty established the country with literature, and I don't know how many treasures of calligraphy and painting in the past dynasties were collected. In Cheng Yue's house, there are many rare works that have only been known in later generations, and any one of them can be called a national treasure when it is obtained to later generations. Not to mention that Cheng Yue also has calligraphy and painting masters such as Zhao Mengfu and Wen Tianxiang, as well as Guan Sheng, a peerless talent. What great work can be brought out of Ahma's sandalwood box?
Ahma's expression became extremely solemn, and he held the box in front of Cheng Yue with both hands and put it down, breathing a sigh of relief.
Cheng Yue stared at the wooden box, Ahma smiled slightly, opened it very cautiously little by little, and slowly revealed a three-foot-long scroll, which was antique, and at a glance it was a precious antiquity.
Ahma smiled and said, "Don't hide it from the prince, this is a pair of words, before it is expanded, the prince might as well guess whose ink treasure this painting is?" ”
Cheng Yue immediately went through the famous calligraphers from ancient times to the present in his mind, and felt that it was not worth being so sincere and fearful as Ahma, so he had to shake his head and said, "I can't guess, please give me advice." ”
Ahma smiled mysteriously and said: "The calligraphy of the prince is a family of its own, and the ministers admire it very much, but when it comes to calligraphy from ancient times to the present, there is only one calligrapher recognized by the Han people!" ”
When Cheng Yue heard this, he opened his mouth and stammered, as if he had been shocked!
When he thought of these three words, he couldn't even move!
Wang Xizhi——!
Book Saint Wang Xizhi!
I was fortunate enough to see the works of the book saint Wang Xizhi!
Cheng Yue only felt that his mouth was dry, his heartbeat was faster, and his whole person was so excited that he almost exploded!
Which post by Wang Xizhi is this character? "Orchid Pavilion Preface" is definitely impossible, so which one of Wang Xizhi's posts will it be? No matter which one it is, it is a swan song for the ages!
Seeing that Cheng Yue was so shocked that he couldn't speak, Ahma smiled proudly and said, "Yes, there is Wang Xizhi's handwriting on this painting." ”
Cheng Yue was suddenly stunned, and said hurriedly: "What did Pingzhang say?" What does it mean to have Wang Xizhi's handwriting? Isn't this one of Wang Xizhi's posts? ”
Ahma shook his head and smiled: "Several posts of the book saint Wang Xizhi have long been lost, and even the prince can't find it, let alone the minister?" However, the minister inadvertently got this ink treasure related to Wang Xizhi, with a poem inscribed by Wang Xizhi on it. After the minister got it, he didn't dare to slack off, and specially invited a few people to identify it and identify it as genuine, so the minister immediately strictly ordered it to be kept secret and not allowed to leak out half a word. This post is the only remaining book saint ink treasure in the world! The minister asked the prince to guess again, which person related to Wang Xizhi wrote it? ”
Cheng Yue's mind was in a hurry, and he immediately asked, "May I ask Pingzhang, is this a man or a woman?" ”
