Chapter 726 Extraordinary people

When Chen Jing heard what Qin Zhengguo said, he responded with a smile: "Yeah, let me take a look too."

As he spoke, he carefully opened the "Secret History of the Ming Dynasty" in his hand.

Because this ancient book is well preserved, even though it is very old, the words on it are still clearly visible after opening the pages.

Although it was an ancient text, Chen Jing still didn't seem to be stressed at all.

Most modern people don't seem to have much pressure on it, because the characters used in the Ming Dynasty are actually relatively well developed, and are not much different from the later traditional Chinese characters.

Although modern people learn simplified Chinese characters, they can basically understand traditional Chinese characters.

Soon, Chen Jing became fascinated.

When Qin Zhengguo saw this, he didn't think much about anything else. He just said: "Mr. Chen, since you are interested in this book, why don't you sit down and take a closer look?"

He didn't ask Chen Jing to take it home to see. After all, it was his collection and he wasn't going to sell it. Of course, he was worried that Chen Jing would damage it after taking it away.

Chen Jing nodded naturally when he heard this: "Okay, this book is really interesting. I am originally more interested in the history of the Ming Dynasty."

"Haha, actually I also like the Ming Dynasty, and I also like to collect ancient books from the Ming Dynasty, but the ones that are more common on the market are from the Qing Dynasty. It's a pity."

Afterwards, Chen Jing started working on the desk next to him, carefully and quickly looking through the ancient books in his hand.

What he mainly wanted to see was the search for the Fengshan Ancient Tomb and the Suihou Pearl.

"Secret History of the Ming Dynasty" has a lot of content, but fortunately Chen Jing quickly found what he wanted to read.

The first is to search for the Fengshan Ancient Tomb.

The book recorded the approximate location of the Xunfengshan Ancient Tomb, and also gave some general information, but it did not mention the identity of the owner of the tomb, or it was not stated clearly.

There was an ambiguous sentence in it, which caught Chen Jing's attention.

"Who is buried in Xunfeng Mountain? He is an extraordinary person!"

The meaning of this sentence seems to be that the owner of the Xunfengshan Ancient Tomb is not a mortal, but an immortal, but naturally it is impossible to really understand it this way.

"This should still be a metaphor for the identity of the owner of the tomb, who is not a mortal. According to the understanding of the ancients, the emperor is the emperor, but in fact he is not a mortal. Even the princes and princesses can be said to be not mortals, but the son of the dragon and the daughter of the dragon."

"It is unlikely that the owner of the Fengshan Ancient Tomb is Zhu Di's illegitimate daughter."

"The new clue that the Treasure Appraisal Eye is triggered is the Dragon Girl. This seems to mean that the tomb owner of the Xunfengshan Ancient Tomb is Zhu Di's illegitimate daughter. But even if it is really Zhu Di's illegitimate daughter, it should not be considered in history.

There should be no trace at all.”

"If there is really no trace, then this clue means nothing to me."

Chen Jing kept thinking about various possibilities.

To be honest, it seems that the clue of the Dragon Girl has almost pointed out that the owner of the Xunfengshan Ancient Tomb may be Zhu Di's illegitimate daughter, but Chen Jing always feels that this possibility is unlikely.

First, he didn't find any relevant clues.

The second one is actually intuition. I feel vaguely that this direction is wrong.

"The owner of the tomb is not a mortal, the dragon son repays the king's kindness, the dragon girl..."

The combination of these keywords seems to be saying that the owner of the tomb is really not a mortal, but a god.

Chen Jing shook his head, no longer thought about it, and continued to look through the ancient books in his hand, looking for records related to Suihou Pearl.

Soon, he saw the record about the whereabouts of the Suihou Pearl in the "Secret History of the Ming Dynasty".

The content of this record is not concise. Most of the text actually talks about the preciousness and origin of Suihou beads, etc., only the last sentence is mentioned.

"In the third year of Yongle, there was a dragon girl who brought a Hou Zhu as a tribute. Emperor Yongle was very happy and built a Dragon Girl temple to reward him. However, the Dragon Girl temple was just built, and Sui Hou Zhu and the Dragon Girl disappeared. Emperor Yongle was furious and killed more than a hundred people.

, it is said that the dragon girl seemed to have jumped into the river and disappeared with her Hou Zhu."

This is the record in ancient books about the whereabouts of the Suihou Pearl.

To be honest, it does seem a bit mysterious and nonsense.

Anyone would just watch it for fun.

But Chen Jing couldn't help but frown.

Dragon Girl, the Dragon Girl also appears in this book. This Dragon Girl does not refer to Zhu Di’s daughter. At that time, who was not the emperor’s daughter, who dared to say that she was the Dragon Girl, and got the emperor’s approval, and even gave her

Build the Dragon Girl Temple.

According to the "Secret History of the Ming Dynasty", the dragon girl dedicated to Zhu Di's Suihou Pearl can only be the dragon girl in real myths and legends. Otherwise, why would Zhu Di build a dragon girl temple for her?

At the same time, the clue given by the Treasure Appraisal Eye is also the dragon girl.

This seems to be related to what is said in the book.

"Even if she is really the dragon girl in myths and legends, why did she run away with the Suihou Pearl in the end?"

"Could it be that he had exposed his flaws by pretending to be a ghost, or maybe he had been discovered, and he was afraid of making Zhu Di angry, so he ran away with the beads? But the situation at that time, the Suihou beads should have been placed in the palace, then

How could the Dragon Girl run away from the palace with Suihou Zhu?"

Chen Jing only felt that his head was a bit big, and there were really too few clues available now, too few.

It was so small that it was impossible for Chen Jing to make any valuable speculations. Everything was just random thoughts and had no meaning at all.

"Alas." Chen Jing sighed secretly in his heart, and after looking through it a few more times, he stood up and put the "Secret History of the Ming Dynasty" back in his hand.

"Huh? Mr. Chen, don't you want to read it?" Qin Zhengguo was slightly startled and asked with some confusion.

Chen Jing smiled and said, "Well, that's almost it."

To be honest, what he gained from reading the ancient Ming Dynasty books this time was not as great as he imagined.

However, this situation was also expected by Chen Jing, so he quickly adjusted his mentality and said instead: "Mr. Qin, I'm really troubling you today. Let's have a meal together when you have time."

Qin Zhengguo waved his hand: "No trouble, Mr. Chen, come and see my collection. I'm very happy. To be honest, those of us who are collectors, besides hobbies and investments, don't just want other people to

Do you want to take a look at your collection?"

"Haha, what Mr. Qin said is quite interesting."

The two chatted for a while, and Chen Jing continued to casually look at Qin Zhengguo's collection, or simply his collection of books, before leaving.

…………

After leaving the community where Qin Zhengguo lived, Chen Jing drove directly to Qilan Law Firm.

However, he planned to take a look at the decoration of his new home with Kong Xue at noon, which was a break from his busy schedule. The main reason was that Kong Xue wanted him to go over and have a look and give his opinions.
