269 Tomb of Yuan Gong
Lin Yi secretly glanced at the fifth brother.
The fifth brother immediately understood his intentions.
"I said, little master, we've seen it almost, have you finished the rubbing over there?"
"It's over, let's take a look!"
The accompanying monk walked up to him and took a look, and it was really unusual.
The remnant of the monument stood in the corner with the original gray face of the monument, and no one would look at him at all.
After Qian Sheng's hard work, he cleaned up all the soil and dust on it, and then rubbed the stone carvings on it with vermilion ink, which looked a bit antique.
The little master looked at the rubbings and was full of praise, Qian Sheng took out a few and said with satisfaction:
"These are the rubbings that I am personally satisfied with, so I will stay in the temple, and we will take away the rest of them, as well as this pile of leftovers."
As he spoke, Qian Sheng stretched out his hand to put together the chaotic test items on the ground, and sandwiched his brain under his armpits.
"We will take away this garbage, and we will resolutely not cause trouble to your temple."
The little master clasped his hands together: "Then it will be bothering the donor." ”
The group left the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and pretended to walk around the temple, then bid farewell to the accompanying monks, and walked out of the temple directly, and went straight to the car.
Sitting in the car and closing the door, Qian Sheng couldn't wait to take out four rubbings of broken inscriptions from the pile of waste paper and unfold them one by one.
"I really let my eldest brother guess, this handwriting has not been polished clean, and it has been thrown into the ground after it was smashed before and no one cares, except for some weathering traces around it, the original text of the carving can basically be recognized."
Seeing this, Bai Lu finally reacted.
"Oh, it turns out that you said that you want the rubbing of the stele, but you actually want to print the rubbing! Why didn't you tell me in advance, I was kept in the dark. ”
"Maybe I still don't trust your acting skills." Lin Yi joked.
"My acting skills? Please, I'm also begging for a living in the entertainment industry, and I've acted in a few plays, although it's not an important role. ”
"Ah, yes, yes, don't say it, next time I see your acting skills, I will definitely turn around for you! The kind that doesn't charge money, don't make trouble, get down to business, get down to business! ”
Lin Yi smiled and picked up a rubbing and pasted it on the front windshield, the handwriting on it was faintly visible.
The font is a very obvious line, and it is also the most popular inscription font in the Ming Dynasty.
"The pen power of the Shudan person is very solid, and he can see the trajectory of his learning from the strokes, and he has the charm of Dong Qichang, which ordinary people can't write."
"The craftsman who carved it is not ordinary, and he can carve the power of the original work through the back of the paper. It's a pity, if the handwriting of this monument has not been erased, it should be an excellent calligraphy facsimile, a model work. ”
Lin Yi and Qian Sheng were discussing, and the fifth brother suddenly interjected:
"Why do you think this person wants to erase the words on it?"
"Fifth brother, you don't know. Our Chinese calligraphy is divided into two categories: stele and post.
As the name suggests, this stele is to learn the calligraphy of the ancients from the inscriptions, and the study of the post is to start from the ancient posts and study the ink treasures of the old people.
It can only be said that each has its own strengths, but there is a problem, the number of ancient calligraphy is very small, and the number of inscriptions is considerable.
In the past, there were still people who took rubbings as a business, especially the stone tablets of some famous artists, the inscriptions of the Shudan of these people in Ou Liuyan Zhao, in the era when there were no large quantities of printed matter in the past, that every rubbing was a priceless treasure.
In order to sell their rubbings at a good price, these people will deliberately damage a few important words on the inscription, or even damage a whole piece of inscription.
In this way, his rubbings have become a lonely book, and how much it costs is completely up to him. ”
"It's so ruthless!" After listening to Qian Sheng's narration, the fifth brother couldn't help but be speechless.
"And what is this in front of us?"
"To hide the truth! I'll just say that this stone tablet looks a little familiar, do you remember the one we saw at the bottom of the well? This stele should have been placed on the stele. ”
As soon as Lin Yi's words came out, everyone was shocked.
"I didn't think of that! I also think that the specifications of this monument, as well as the calligraphy and carving workmanship are all top-notch, so it can't just be a monument to the completion of a temple.
According to what you say, it's all right, such a thick stele, such a good material, the dragon ornament, and the auspicious cloud ornament on the back of the stump below belongs to the same style. ”
Qian Sheng slapped his face violently and leaned closer to the glass to carefully identify the words on it.
Regular script, except for the individual traditional characters in it, is already a kind of writing style that is very close to the current writing habits.
The text on it is shallower and more difficult to read, but if you look closely, you can still get some content.
It doesn't matter if you don't read the content of this inscription, after reading it from Qian Sheng's mouth, everyone in the car was shocked by the words on it.
The content of this inscription should be taken from the middle piece, which reads:
When Zhang Xianzhong led his troops through Langzhong, he listened to the instigation of his son Li Dingguo, and with great effort, despite the obstruction of the locals, he insisted on digging up Yuan Tiangang's mausoleum.
From the tomb of Duke Yuan, no priceless gold and silver treasures were found, but he dug out the mouth, Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang worked together to "steal" the "Qingzhou Ding" from the "Shuangzhou Tomb" in Xiqi!
Not only that, but also dug out a strange book "The Book of the Three Worlds", which is a collection of Yuan Gong's lifelong learning, and is a very important work.
Zhang Xianzhong was a dirt bun, and he couldn't read a basket of words, so he was not interested in these things, so he rewarded this book to his son Li Dingguo.
At that time, he listened to the advice of his strategist Wang Zhaolin, since he had obtained the "Qingzhou Ding", one of the "Nine Tripods of King Yu", it showed that he had dragon energy, so it was better to ascend the throne and be the emperor.
It is precisely because of the appearance of this Qingzhou Ding that he firmly believes that he is the true dragon son of heaven and the chosen one.
Only then did Zhang Xianzhong enter Shu and establish the Daxi regime, and since then the "Eight Kings" have become the "Daxi Emperor".
The inscription also says that after Zhang Xianzhong dug the tomb of Duke Yuan in Langzhong, that night, he dreamed that a Taoist wearing a Taoist robe with three strands of long hair gave him a dream.
Warned him that since he had already obtained this "Qingzhou Ding", he should not harm the people of Langzhong, otherwise he would be punished by heaven.
Zhang Xianzhong woke up in a dream and ordered his subordinates to open overnight, and strictly ordered his sergeants along the way not to touch the people of Langzhong without permission.
If they do not comply, they will be beheaded and shown to the public.
After listening to Qian Sheng's story, the fifth brother patted the seat back of the car.
"That's right, that's right, I heard when I was a child that this Zhang was loyal to Shu, and every place he went to catch strong men and fill the army, dare to disobey and immediately cut off the door, and slaughter the city if he was a little unhappy, all over Sichuan, but Langzhong City has not been robbed."
