Chapter 47: Another Prophetic Psalm
I didn't directly question Yan Qiu this time, all kinds of misunderstandings caused by distrust have been bothering the two of us for too long, no matter whether there is really a problem this time, I don't think too much.
I really can't see that a stone tablet in the Northern Song Dynasty is engraved with Yan Qiu's name, and there is something strange about it, maybe it's just a coincidence, and understanding the inscription is the first thing.
After Yan Qiu finished reading, she stood up straight, looking at everyone with a very calm expression, and couldn't see what secrets she was hiding.
The fat brother asked Yan Qiu: "Archaeologist, give us Bai Hu Bai Hu, how can this poem be translated?" ”
Yan Qiu's answer was succinct: "Italics, Northern Song Dynasty inscription, "Plum Blossom Poems", author Shao Yong. ”
Jiang Rou blinked her eyes and asked Yan Qiu, "Wouldn't it be some kind of prophetic poem?" ”
Yan Qiu still said expressionlessly: "That's right, this "Plum Blossom Poem" is not ordinarily famous, and those who have studied history a little should know that it is indeed ten prophetic poems." ”
"Did it say that I would get rich in the future?" The fat brother asked with joy.
Jiang Li replied to the fat brother angrily: "The ancient prophetic poems of people are all predicting the fortune of the country, if you get rich or not, you have to find a blind fortune teller to ask." ”
Jiang Rou retorted to her sister and said, "Why do fortune tellers have to be blind? I'll tell fortunes too. ”
The fat brother hurriedly stretched out a hand and said to Jiang Rou: "Then you quickly calculate it for me, can you get rich?" ”
Jiang Rou slapped the fat brother on the hand and said, "I don't look at palmistry, I have to use poker." ”
"The three of you are in trouble." I interrupted them harshly, thinking to myself that this group of teammates would not do anything but make a mess.
Then I continued to ask Yan Qiu: "Is there any difference between this "Plum Blossom Poem" and the "Song of Baked Cakes" we watched?" ”
Yan Qiu said: "This "Plum Blossom Poem" is earlier than "Baked Cake Song", and the time division is more accurate, basically the ten poems predict things are more than 100 years apart, and the time of "Baked Cake Song" is not fixed, it is based on major events. ”
"Do you mean that "The Song of Baked Cakes" predicts important historical events that affect the political situation, while "Plum Blossom Poem" describes the state of each century? Right? I asked.
Yan Qiu nodded and said, "Well, it sums it up very well, that's what it means, it can also be said that each poem corresponds to a dynasty or historical period." The first seven songs are the Northern Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China, and the present, and the last three songs are the future. ”
I saw that the poem with Yan Qiu's name was in the first sentence of the ninth poem, and I didn't know whether Yan Qiu deliberately avoided it or did it unintentionally, anyway, I didn't talk about my doubts for a long time, but pushed it to the future.
Su Rina still cared more about the evidence, she asked Yan Qiu: "You talked for a long time, why didn't I see Shao Yong's name written anywhere?" The author is him, and it doesn't have to be him who carved the monument, right? ”
I replied to Su Rina and said, "Look at the payment, Fan Yang Kangjie, similar to Liu Bowen's Wencheng Qingtian before, maybe this represents Shao Yong, right?" After saying that, I looked at Yan Qiu again, waiting for her to confirm.
Yan Qiu nodded and said: "Shao Yong was born in Fanyang, which is today's Dashao Village, Zhuo (Zhuō) Prefecture, Hebei Province, and moved to Hengzhang with his father when he was a child. He, Fan Yang Kangjie, also used the name of the place and added his own nickname. In fact, this is also my strange place, the nicknames are only after death, why did Liu Bowen and Shao Yong both use the nicknames to settle the money? There is only one possibility, which is to divinate for yourself, leave your last words when you die, and set your own name. ”
The fat brother seemed to understand very well, and said with his chest straight: "This is a good explanation, don't they all say that fortune tellers don't count for themselves?" Fear of retribution. These people can predict the next few thousand years, and they must try to tell their fortunes when they are dying, and maybe this calculated nickname can bless future generations. ”
After talking for a long time, I still didn't get to the place I wanted to ask, so I simply pointed to a random poem and asked Yanqiu: "Tell me, what does this poem predict?" ”
I'm referring to the fifth poem, which reads: "Hu Er rode a horse to Chang'an and opened up the Central Plains Sea." The flood is flattening, and Qingguang should look at Hanzhong. ”
Yan Qiu looked at the inscription and explained seriously: "The first sentence 'Hu'er rode a horse to Chang'an' refers to the founding of the Qing Dynasty, 'Hu'er' is the child of the Manchu Dynasty, and 'riding a horse to Chang'an' can be interpreted as passing through the Great Wall safely, or it can be interpreted as walking towards the capital." Corresponding to the historical form at that time, in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself, Wu Sangui led the Qing army into the customs, and the little emperor Fulin became the founding emperor of the Qing Dynasty. The second sentence 'opening up the Central Plains sea territory is wide', which refers to the fact that after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the Central Plains was pacified, the four Yi were conquered, and the territory was opened up more extensively. There are also many historical events, such as Shunzhi quelling the rebellion of King Li Chuang and eliminating the kings of the Southern Ming Dynasty. Kangxi quelled the rebellion of the three feudatories, surrendered Taiwan, and conquered Tibet. Qianlong also had ten major military exploits and won ten great victories. ”
The fat brother slapped his thigh: "Don't say it, it's really that interesting, what about the next two sentences?" ”
Yan Qiu continued to explain: "'Flood Chaping Flood' refers to the defeat of the Qing Dynasty in two floods, the first flood is the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Hong Xiuquan, like a flood, and finally was pacified, and the second flood is Li Yuanhong, the first vice president of the Republic of China, who represents the establishment of the Republic of China and the fall of the Qing Dynasty. The meaning of the wave of unsettled waves in the poem also expounds the current situation at that time, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Sino-French War, the Sino-Russian War, the Anglo-French Alliance, the Rebellion of the Rebellion, the Rebellion of the Boxers, and the Eight-Nation Alliance, a historical period of disasters and disasters. ”
Jiang Li took a deep breath and said: "I can really predict it, it's amazing, then the last sentence must be the demise of the Qing government, the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty lost." ”
Yan Qiu touched Jiang Li's head: "'Qingguang' can also be interpreted as the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, saying that it began to decline from this time. The central area of the Han people in 'Hanzhong' is said to have led to the complete demise of the Qing Dynasty due to the Wuchang Uprising. ”
As soon as Yan Qiu finished speaking, without waiting for her to think about it, I asked casually: "What about the ninth song?" "Pretending to be unintentional, in fact, in order to pick out the key points, I still want to know why the ninth song has Yan Qiu's name.
The fat brother complained: "When did you start to love ancient poetry? It doesn't matter what it means, we just know it's a prophecy, I almost fell asleep when I heard Yan Qiu say it, so let's hurry up. After speaking, the fat brother glanced at the ninth poem, and when he saw the inscription, his eyes suddenly widened, and he asked Yan Qiu: "Hey, Yan Qiu, how can this poem have your name?" ”
Yan Qiu's explanation was: "I don't know, but it doesn't seem to have much to do with me, this ninth song is about the future, according to time, how can it be two hundred years later, and I will enter the urn at that time." ”
She read it softly: "The fire dragon stings Yanmenqiu." After thinking about it, he said: "The meaning of this sentence is eighty percent that the era of peace has passed for a long time, and the war has started again, and the 'fire dragon' should be a weapon that talks about cannons or something, and 'hibernation' must have risen again after a long period of hibernation." 'Yanmen Autumn' may be the time and place, the time is autumn, the detailed point of the location is Yanmen Pass, and the general point is Yandi. The author lived in the Northern Song Dynasty, when the Yan Kingdom had perished, and Yan was talking about Shandong and Liaoning. Let's not speculate about the future. ”
Yan Qiu's explanation makes sense, but none of us understand, and we won't be able to see if she says it.
I asked again: "Then why are you called Yanqiu?" ”
Yan Qiu's face was obviously not right, as if she had touched on some sad past, she looked at the ground and replied, "My father's name is Yan Guoqing, and my mother's name is Chen Qiulin, so my name is Yan Qiu." With that, he walked on alone, leaving a few of us where we were, not knowing what was happening.
The fat brother was the first to chase Yan Qiu and trot over, and a few of us followed behind and continued to walk forward.
I heard the fat brother whisper to Yanqiu: "Sister, what's wrong?" If you are not happy to tell me, I am a confidant big brother. ”
Yan Qiu smiled bitterly and replied to the fat brother: "It's nothing, my parents died early, and I haven't worshiped for a long time." ”
Hearing her say this, I suddenly felt a shock in my heart, I didn't expect Yan Qiu to be the same as us, she was actually a fatherless and motherless child, I thought she should be that kind of rich girl, a returnee, I really didn't expect that there was a sad life experience hidden under the glamorous surface.
