"The Queen Mother, now the long hair has been leveled, and the twist has been extinguished, seeing that the world is peaceful, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and all industries are revived, and such a peerless porcelain will be able to be burned." Liu Shengyin carefully worded the words, trying to comfort Renxi, "When the time comes, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing to put all these old and new good porcelain together?" ”

"Just you can talk." Empress Dowager Renxi smiled and nodded, obviously appreciating Liu Shengyin's idea.

"This Lin Yiqing, who is young, is really heartfelt." Empress Dowager Renxi's gaze fell on the pastel porcelain on the table, and said, "This time he should really reward him with something, but if it is passed out, it will inevitably give the flame-clinging people a chance......"

"What the Queen Mother said is very true, according to the slave, this time it's better not to reward him for any officials." Liu Chengyin said, "If the queen mother wants to reward him, just give him something, you can show her grace, as long as you do your best, you will not forget him; Second, it can also be exempted from external negotiations. ”

Unlike other eunuchs, Liu Shengyin is clever and coarse. Even the current situation is quite insightful. Most of the eunuchs in the palace are just bent on their wills to be driven, and Liu Chengcheng can help the Empress Dowager Renxi get big ideas. What's even more valuable is that Liu Shengyin has never been in love with power, and he is kind and kind, and the Empress Dowager Yirenxi relies on him very much, and sometimes asks him for advice.

"It's still thoughtful," Empress Dowager Renxi nodded, "But the time to reward him with things is not yet yet, you can wait, don't rush at this time." ”

The Empress Dowager Renxi was gossiping with Liu Shengyin, while carefully appreciating these original "Yongqing Changchun" Tibetan porcelain sent by Lin Yiqing. But at this time, the Empress Dowager Renxi didn't know what kind of coincidence Lin Yiqing was. Find these precious porcelain.

On this day, Lin Yiqing was at leisure. I went to the street selling porcelain in Fuzhou City.

In his original time and space. He was very interested in ancient porcelain, which he was actually influenced by his grandfather, who had many elites in all walks of life among his friends, including many porcelain masters. At that time, the family could often receive packages from my grandfather's friends, and when I opened the cardboard boxes, I saw that they were all extremely exquisite dishes and tea sets. Grandpa said, "This is what they sell, you can use it!" ”

So famous people make things. Of course, Lin Yiqing put it away at the behest of his father. The father also said to the grandfather: "I can't let the children use it, it's a pity to break it." ”

When Grandpa heard this, he shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about!" Something with a shape will always break! If you don't use good things from a young age, you won't have enough vision when you grow up! ”

Since then, Lin Yiqing's family has used things made by famous masters to eat and drink tea.

As a junior, Lin Yiqing also remembers his grandfather's lesson: "Those are all external objects." ”

Under the influence of his ears and eyes, Lin Yiqing also learned to appreciate porcelain, like choosing porcelain has a four-character formula, one look, two listens, three comparisons, and four trials. In addition to "listening", I feel that the other three methods require professional accumulation and are not easy for laymen to master. And "listen". It's a simple and practical method. Porcelain with good texture strikes lightly, and the sound is often crisp and long. Porcelain with poor texture is muddy and dull.

When Lin Yiqing arrived at a shop, the owner was very enthusiastic and immediately stepped forward to introduce him to many kiln products. Lin Yiqing looked at them one by one and found that these porcelain utensils were all from Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, and the tableware was only sleek and delicate, with gorgeous colors, and I felt that it was authentic at a glance.

Lin Yiqing took a plate and tapped it on each other, but found that the porcelain plates from Jingdezhen did not make a crisp sound, but had a dull sound.

He took the second one, and then lightly struck each other, but it was still a muddy sound. Took the third one, and it was still the same.

Almost all the stacks of plates on the shelves have been tried, and none of them have made a clear sound. Seeing this, the shopkeeper was a little strange, so he smiled and asked, "What kind of porcelain do the guests want to have earlier?" ”

Lin Yiqing smiled and told him his own identification method. After listening to this, the shopkeeper said: "This is indeed one of the ways to identify the quality of porcelain, the sound is clear, indicating that the porcelain is hard, the internal structure is tight, and there are no cracks; If the voice is dull, it means that the porcelain texture is loose, and there are even cracks that cannot be detected by the naked eye. But the guest just auditioned the wrong way. ”

Lin Yiqing said curiously: "Why do you say that this method is wrong? ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "At first, the customer took a plate with a poor texture, and if you use it to strike, of course there is no clear sound." The shopkeeper said, took a porcelain plate with good texture, and touched it lightly, and it made a crisp sound, like the sound of a zither flowing, which made Lin Yiqing feel refreshed.

"Guests know that the porcelain plate used for this audition is very important, if you are holding a porcelain of poor quality, the sound of the porcelain of poor quality will interfere with your hearing and make you misjudge. And when you have the really good things in your hands, you can find out the better things. ”

The boss's words made Lin Yiqing feel endless for a while.

"It's all the same in life. If the world in your heart is beautiful, then the world is beautiful. If your heart is happy, then your life is also happy. You are kind to others, and you will be more kind. If you want to discover the beauty of this world, then you must choose the right 'standard' for measuring this world. The boss laughed.

"What the gentleman said is that he was taught today." Lin Yiqing hugged his fists and saluted.

Although the shopkeeper is not amazing, his speech is quite insightful, which makes Lin Yiqing sigh that Fuzhou is really prosperous and talented.

Lin Yiqing bought back two pieces of porcelain in this store, a small Jun porcelain furnace and a jade pot spring bottle. Jun porcelain small furnace is colorful and magnificent, red, blue and purple three colors like flowing clouds, glaze traces, and clearly a landscape painting, suddenly feel the twilight and the sun flies, and the autumn mountain has no repetition. The jade pot spring vase is pure duck blue, the porcelain is delicate, crystal clear, like a clear sky on a moonlit night.

"As the saying goes: there are thousands of homes, not as good as a piece of Jun porcelain, do guests know why Jun porcelain is precious?" The shopkeeper saw Lin Yiqing carefully looking at the small porcelain furnace and asked him with a smile.

Lin Yiqing shook his head.

"As the guests know, there is no duplicate of Jun porcelain," he said. "One color into the kiln. Out of the kiln colorful. Therefore, every piece of Jun porcelain is the only thing in the world. Can it not be precious? And this lovely thing was originally porcelain clay in the mountains, after it was formed, it entered the kiln and conjured up all kinds of charms. ”

"What is an opening film?" Lin Yiqing asked along with his words.

"Do you see the ice cracks on this porcelain stove?" He pointed to the thin, staggered lines like fibrous roots and said, "You look like a crack." When you touch it, it's smooth. With this crack, the porcelain is 'alive', it is the spirit and blood of porcelain, and it is a fresh life. It is constantly 'opening', that is, its texture is quietly changing, refining little by little. When the film is opened, there is a very slight sound. You listen! ”

The shopkeeper said, putting the porcelain stove to Lin Yiqing's ear.

"There's no sound." Lin Yiqing listened for a while. Said.

The shopkeeper put the porcelain stove to his ear, listened to it, and said regretfully: "It's too noisy on the street now, so naturally I can't hear it." In the dead of night, when the heart is like water, if the guests put Jun porcelain in their ears, there will be a slight sound, like a bell like a piano, like a flower blooming. People are very impetuous, and very few people can hear these sounds, but it does keep opening all the time - whether you know it or not. ”

Lin Yiqing couldn't help but be surprised when he heard someone say this for the first time: "In this way, this porcelain has really become a living thing!" It keeps opening, and today's it, compared to yesterday, has changed subtly? ”

"Yes!" The shopkeeper nodded and said, "A piece of Jun porcelain, the life of the opening piece is sixty years...... Sixty years of persistence, the porcelain flower is refined piece by piece, exquisite, and it is also the most valuable time. ”

Lin Yiqing stroked the two pieces of porcelain, thinking to himself, how could it be? How so? The opening film is more like a legend, or rather, like a kind of Zen language. He thought for a moment and asked, "Dare to ask the boss, you shouldn't have been in this business for a few years, right?" I don't think you're that old? ”

The shopkeeper nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, but my family has been burning porcelain for many years, and going back up, my father, grandfather, grandfather's grandfather, are all in this business." When the hair was growing, my grandfather was almost buried alive to protect a piece of porcelain. Grandpa later fled to a remote ravine, deserted, and on a windy night, he could hear the howl of wild wolves. ”

"Oh? How could it be? Hearing the shopkeeper's words, Lin Yiqing couldn't help but be in awe.

"My grandfather was a well-known master of porcelain burning, and what he was best at was making oversized porcelain. There is a saying in the porcelain industry, called 'one inch high and one inch dangerous', too large porcelain, if not well considered, will explode the glaze when burning, and be scrapped at once, my grandfather was in the mountains at that time, constantly studying his porcelain, his goal is to make a one-zhang high net bottle. In order to make this net bottle, my grandfather put all his energy into challenging his limits. ”

"Why do you want to make such a big net bottle?"

"That year, Changmao had just been pacified, and a big military machine in Beijing needed to make a one-zhang high porcelain vase, and found a lot of craftsmen and promised a lot of money, but no one dared to take this errand. At this time, I don't know who recommended his grandfather. When my grandfather left the mountain, he was nearly eighty years old, and he was so thin that he was exhausted, and the wrinkles on his face were like ice cracks on a porcelain bottle. At that time, the Lord said, 'Do you have the confidence and ability to make this bottle?' My grandfather coughed violently and then said, 'Okay, I'll try, give me half a year.' My grandfather didn't disappoint. That bottle, he really made it, and now it is placed in the temple of the imperial city, as a tool for worship in front of the Buddha, and everyone who sees it is full of praise. ”

"Your grandfather is really a national player! How is he now? Is your body okay? Lin Yiqing really wanted to meet this legendary old man, so he asked.

Hearing Lin Yiqing's question, the shopkeeper's face showed sadness: "My grandfather passed away in less than two months after making that porcelain. That piece of porcelain made all my grandfather's energy and talent bloom in an instant, which was his accumulation of 60 years. ”

Hearing that the old man had passed away, Lin Yiqing couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"However, my grandfather walked away with a smile, and when he left, he held in his hand the most proud work he said he had made in the mountains—the jade pot spring vase in the hands of the guests." The shopkeeper pointed to the jade pot spring bottle that Lin Yiqing bought.

"What?" Listening to the shopkeeper's words, Lin Yiqing couldn't help but be surprised.

This bottle is so precious, but the price for which the other party sells it is not very expensive (and even then, it is not affordable for ordinary people). He couldn't help but wonder.

"Don't blame the guests. The reason why I sold it to you. It's because when you see it, you will think of your grandfather, and your heart is sad, I can see that the guest is a person who understands porcelain and loves porcelain, and this bottle is handed over to the guest for collection, and I am also relieved. The shopkeeper seemed to understand what Lin Yiqing was thinking, smiled, and explained. It is fate that guests can recognize the good of this bottle and like it. ”

"Thank you, sir." Lin Yiqing bowed his hand, and then carefully put the bottle into a wooden box given to him by the shopkeeper.

"I look at the guests with extraordinary spirits, and they are by no means ordinary people, but I have never seen guests before." The shopkeeper helped Lin Yiqing with the packaging, and asked as if he was inadvertent.

"Oh? Why does the gentleman say that? Lin Yiqing raised her eyebrows slightly and asked quietly.

"In this Fuzhou city, I still know some of the distinguished guests who like to collect porcelain. It's just that this is the first time you've seen you. The shopkeeper smiled, "And there seems to be a gloomy color between the guests' eyebrows." I don't know why? But didn't you find any beautiful porcelain? ”

After listening to the shopkeeper's words, Lin Yiqing secretly admired this person's keen observation, but he knew that he would not tell the other party the real reason for coming here.

Since Chen Wan brought Xu Rui to see him that day, and the white-haired Xu Rui directly expressed his grievances in front of him, he made up his mind to help this old man solve this bloody case and avenge the blood sea!

In order to solve this case, Lin Yiqing asked the old man in detail about some details, and carefully looked at the physical evidence preserved by the old man - a bloody wooden board, Lin Yiqing personally went to Hu Yulin's old house to investigate, but did not find more valuable clues.

The purpose of Lin Yiqing's re-investigation is to find the whereabouts of Xu Yan'er's body, because according to his experience in later generations, if the victim's body can be found in a homicide case, many clues can be found from the corpse.

After Hu Yulin killed Xu Yan'er, how did he dispose of her body?

Lin Yiqing thought about it repeatedly, but he couldn't get the point, and at this moment, a wall in Hu Yulin's old mansion caught his attention.

The surface of this wall is very smooth, it looks like a mud wall, but when you touch it with your hands, it is very hard, like stone, and very lubricated, and its material is completely different from the brick walls and stone walls elsewhere.

According to the person in charge, Hu Yulin is very fond of porcelain, every year from Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province to buy a large number of fine porcelain, as a gift for his own use and gifts to relatives and friends, the porcelain used by the Hu family is of the highest quality, and the wall of the Hu family, it is said that he bought a large number of porcelain pieces from Jingdezhen, mashed into mud and built with this, because it is made of high-quality porcelain clay, it is smooth and moist, cool in summer, and insulated in winter, called "cool wall", which is unique to the Hu family, because of this, the Hu family also has a rule, that is, the broken porcelain is not allowed to be abandoned, Instead, they are collected and mashed into puree to prepare for the "cool wall" material!

Although he learned about the origin of this wall and didn't seem to have anything to do with Xu Yan'er's murder, Lin Yiqing always had a vague feeling: Xu Yan'er's death was likely to be related to Hu Yulin's penchant for porcelain!

He always comes to the porcelain market these days because of this idea.

PS: I like what Hayao Miyazaki said, "It's raining in the city you live in, and I'd love to ask if you have an umbrella with you." But I held back, because I was afraid that you wouldn't bring it, and I couldn't do anything about it, like I love you, but I can't give you the company you want. Hayao Miyazaki: "I didn't say that. ”
