Chapter 925: Officials Mess Up
readx; Dong Qichang, a collector, once worshiped the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, although he was an idle official, and he had already paid tribute to him, but the official authority was still there, and others were respectful when they saw him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Today, a teenager dared to refute it in public, and he was immediately furious, and said coldly: "I want to ask this talented man, what is wrong with the old man?" ”
The young man was not in a hurry, and bowed to Dong Qichang before saying, "The student doesn't dare to be disrespectful to Mr. Dong, just talk about things." The students have also read the two ancient books you just mentioned. Take Guo Ruoxu's "Pictures and Stories" as an example, the original text is: 'Fan Kuanzi is neutral, Huayuan people. … Or the name of the cloud is neutral, with its wide nature, so people call it Fan Kuan. The word 'this' or 'cloud' just means that someone said so, but Guo Ruoxu still thinks that 'neutral' is just Fan Kuan's word. ”
"You..."Dong Qichang was stunned by the young man, and only said angrily after a while, "Since Guo Ruoxu has preserved the statement of 'or cloud', it shows that Fan Kuanqi has already been controversial in the Song Dynasty, and even Guo Ruoxu can't figure it out." The Song people can't figure it out, how can they figure it out in the world? You still can't prove that this painting is real! ”
The young man smiled and said, "The student still has circumstantial evidence." Mi Fu, a famous painter in the Song Huizong period, once recorded in the book "Painting History": he once found a landscape painting in a mountain temple, the pen is strong, and the chapter is precipitous. Mi Fu is familiar with the style of landscape painters of the past dynasties, judging from the style of painting, this painting should be made by Jing Hao, a landscape painter in the Tang Dynasty. But when I got closer and took a closer look, I found that the payment was actually the words 'Huayuan Fan Kuan'.
This shows that no matter whether Fan Kuan's real name is 'Fan Kuan' or 'Fan Zhongli', there is no doubt that the inscription on his paintings is 'Fan Kuan'. Mr. Dong also said just now that Fan Kuan is open-minded. If he is inscribed with a nickname, it is even more proof of his uninhibited wildness. This is the real everyone, how can we deal with the reason of ordinary people! ”
These words were reasonable and well-founded, and Dong Qichang was speechless. Especially the last sentence, which obviously classifies Dong Qichang as an "ordinary person", can't help but make this Zhishi official, who claims to be the first person in the world to collect and appraise, blush, and jump like thunder!
At this time, those who used their brains to think seriously already understood that what Dong Qichang said was false, and what this young man said was right. But Dong Qichang has a great reputation after all, and most of the attendees don't really have any level of appreciation, just use antiques as an investment. Of course, they prefer to believe in a famous person like Dong Qichang rather than a little-known teenager.
"You are very arrogant in this posterity! Dong Lao Shangshu has studied through the past and the present, he said that this painting is a fake, can it still be fake? Qiao Yuliang took the lead in making a move.
Under his instigation, many people in the venue also began to coax, and several people from the Luliang Merchant Gang broke into the booth under Qiao Yuliang's instructions, and dragged the young man down without saying anything. The boy was still arguing, but his faint voice was drowned out by laughter.
At this time, Zhu Cunqi lightly poked Zhu Youzhen and said: "Long live, look, Dong Qichang and Qiao Yuliang should know each other!" ”
Zhu Youzhen took a look, and sure enough, he saw Dong Qichang and Qiao Yuliang making eye contact, both of them with smug faces.
Zhu You guessed when he boarded up, and secretly said that Qiao Yuliang must have found Dong Qichang in advance, and deliberately asked him to say that "Xishan Travel Map" was a fake, so as to smash the field of Wuzhou Trading Company. Probably for this reason, Qiao Yuliang also gave Dong Qichang benefits, and this Dong Qichang also cooperated with Qiao Yuliang.
But now that the trick of these two people has indeed taken effect, everyone present has doubts about the authenticity of "Traveling in Streams and Mountains", and naturally they will not bid rashly. Zhu Youzhen was on fire in his heart, and suddenly there was a big mess at the door, and then seven or eight people wearing official clothes came in and shouted: "Who is from Wuzhou Trading Company?" ”
Sun Delong hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The villain Sun Delong is." A few officials are here, please have a cup of tea first..."
"Less nonsense!" The official at the head of the squad snapped and said, "This official is Zhao Hai, the chief catcher of the Shuntian Mansion. Recently, someone reported to Lord Fu Yin, saying that your Wuzhou trading company deceived the gentry of money with fake and real things. Is there such a thing? ”
"Of course not," Sun Delong hurriedly smiled, "Our Wuzhou trading company is honest in doing business..."
"What kind of integrity, isn't this "Traveling Map of Streams and Mountains" a fake?" Qiao Yuliang interjected coldly on the side.
"Oh?" Zhao Hai's eyes widened and said, "Is this true?" ”
"In front of the officials, how dare the villain talk nonsense." Qiao Yuliang said triumphantly, "Besides, there is Dong Laoshangshu to testify." ”
"Ah, the villain is clumsy, I didn't see Dong Laoshangshu here, damn it!" Zhao Hai recognized Dong Qichang and hurriedly clenched his fists. Dong Qichang only nodded slightly, although he did not speak directly, he undoubtedly affirmed Qiao Yuliang's statement.
"Since Dong Laoshangshu believes that it is fake, it must be fake!" Zhao Hai turned to Sun Delong and said, "You have committed a lawsuit, let's go to the yamen with this catcher!" There is also this fake painting, which was also brought to the court as evidence! I heard that Wuzhou Trading Company made a lot of silver in this auction, and it was all stolen silver, and all of it was deducted! As he spoke, he commanded his subordinates to rush up and take Sun Delong into the lock.
The auction suddenly changed, and everyone in the venue was in an uproar, and Zhu Youzhen and Zhu Cunqi in the private room also became nervous all of a sudden. Zhu Youzhen's mind turned around, secretly wondering if this could be another poisonous plan of the Luliang Shang Gang? In this era, the phenomenon of collusion between officials and businessmen is extremely common, and if Qiao Yuliang can buy Dong Qichang, then it is entirely possible to buy Shuntianfu Yin. If the officials were really allowed to arrest Sun Delong and seize all the proceeds from the auction, no matter what the result was, the reputation of Wuzhou Trading Company would inevitably be greatly damaged!
Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen said to Shen Ziming, a member of the Imperial City Guard Regiment and the commander of the first guard company who had been by his side: "Stop them!" ”
This Shen Ziming is also Zhu Youzhen's old background in Jingyang, he was a special combat team, and he also went to Dengzhou with Zhu Youzhen. He has extraordinary skills, is very alert, and is good at dealing with emergencies.
At this time, Shen Ziming was ordered to go downstairs, and came to the door of the hall in a few steps, stretched out his hand to stop Zhao Hai and the other officials, and said, "Wait." ”
Zhao Hai saw that someone was blocking the way, and said angrily: "What are you, dare to stand in the way of this headcatcher?" Don't get out of the way yet! ”
Shen Ziming didn't move at all, and smiled neatly: "I'm just a spectator, the auction is in the excitement, so I don't feel very happy in my heart." It's easy for me to get out of the way, you guys arrest people, do you have the paperwork of Shuntianfu? ”
