Chapter 181: The Inference of He Shibi
Among the two treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period, Suihou Pearl and Heshi Bi, the Heshi Bi is the one that everyone has heard more about. Many interesting stories have been told about it. The most familiar one is the allusion of "the complete jade returns to Zhao".
"Mr. Li, wasn't the He's Bi made by Qin Shihuang and turned into a national jade seal?"
The person who asked this question was the photographer who had been photographing them. He was in his thirties, had pigtails on the back of his head, and was a bit artistic.
"I can't explain this matter in a sentence or two, so I'd better come to my office and sit down for a while. I'll make tea for everyone and chat while we drink."
Several people entered Shi Ziming's office, and soon a pot of tea was brewed and the aroma rose.
"Wait a minute, I'll turn on the camera, just to keep some footage." The photographer is quite dedicated. His main task is to follow the photos, especially when it involves the famous Heshi Bi in history, so he thought it would be appropriate to film the discussion process.
Will be useful.
Li Mo drank a cup of tea, and his mouth was fragrant.
"I'm just saying casually that the history books about the ins and outs of He's Bi, whether official or unofficial, are actually very vague. It's too difficult to make it clear. I can only infer a few things based on my own words.
"
"Yes, after more than two thousand years, the truth of many things cannot be confirmed." Professor Zhu Changping is an archaeological expert, and his research in this area is quite in-depth. "Judging from the unearthed cultural relics data, I personally think that the legend
The national jade seal has little to do with Heshibi."
"Professor Zhu, you are an authority in this field, and I also want to hear your speculation." Shi Ziming poured him a cup of tea, and then poured another cup for everyone else.
"Just chatting. For example, the jade seal of the country. What you see most on TV is that it is very big, square and heavy. In fact, in ancient times, the size of the jade seal was really not big. For example, the jade seal of the country.
According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the jade seal has a radius of four inches, with five dragons on the upper and lower corners, and the upper corner is missing. The radius is the circumference, and the Han inch is about 2 centimeters. So the actual size of the jade seal is about 2 centimeters wide and 2 to 3 centimeters high.
The actual size is not that big.”
"In addition, we know from the size of the unearthed jade bis that large-sized jade bis are generally round, with a diameter of 10 to 15 centimeters and a thickness of about 1 centimeter. There is space in the middle for easy threading. There are relatively few of this large size, and there are more
The second one is a small jade jade, which is easy to carry around. As for the He's jade, since it is also called a position jade, its thickness should be about the same, just over 1 centimeter at most, and does not meet the conditions to be made into a national jade seal."
"Listening to what Professor Zhu said, there are really conflicts between this and the past." Director Fu took a sip of tea and smiled and said, "We can't tell the truth from what is recorded in the history books, but we can still infer from some details.
2. The He's Jade was so famous in ancient times that Qin Shihuang would not destroy it and only use one piece to make a national jade seal. This makes no sense."
The photographer listened with interest as if he were listening to a story. He interrupted and said: "So it really has nothing to do with the clan jade and the imperial seal."
"It's not absolute." Li Mo put down the tea cup and continued, "I am more interested in these, so I spent some time researching it. The origin of Heshi Bi is recorded in historical books, among which "Han Feizi/Heshi" has
There is a sentence like this: 'King Wu died and King Wen came to the throne. He Nai held his virgin body and cried at the foot of Chu Mountain. For three days and three nights, he wept until he was full of blood.'
"Everyone focuses on the word 'hug'. From this action, it can be inferred that the uncarved raw stone is quite large and heavy, so it must be hugged. However, regardless of the thickness and diameter of the He's Bi, there is no way to use up the raw jade."
"So I have a conjecture that the material used for the jade seal is not He's Bi at all, but it may have the same origin as He's Bi and was carved from the remaining raw jade."
After Li Mo finished speaking, he took another sip of fragrant tea.
"This is just my personal inference. Just listen to it as a story."
Several people on the sofa in the office are veterans in this field. After hearing Li Mo's inference, they couldn't help but nod. This is really possible.
"Actually, regardless of whether the jade seal passed down to the country is made of He's Bi, they have all been lost. There are no detailed records about He's Bi in the history books. Even if it is placed in front of us now, no one dares to say that this is a famous one in history.
NCM."
Shi Ziming came back to his senses, his eyes lit up and he said: "If the Heshi Bi is real, then it was either buried with the First Emperor, or it most likely fell into the hands of Xiang Yu later. Judging from his treasure collection, the Heshi Bi
The jade may also be in the remaining iron boxes. If we can find the jade that is suspected to be He's jade, then we can infer its true identity through this huge historical event."
When Director Shi said this, everyone else looked at Li Mo.
Li Mo smiled and said, "That's what I really think. If Xiang Yu's treasure hadn't been discovered, even if He's Bi was placed in front of us, how would any of you know it? There's no basis, and there's no clue. Even if it's really He's Bi, then...
At most, it is regarded as a piece of ancient jade."
"However, since it has something to do with Xiang Yu's treasure, it appears that the jade is suspected to be He's Bi, and we have clues to do research on it."
"Mr. Li, I respect you." The photographer gave a thumbs up, and the others looked at Li Mogao, because Li Mo thought of a question they had never thought of.
"Hahaha, if the Heshi Bi is really born, the weight of the Overlord Treasure Museum in the future may surpass your three major museums. Even if the quantity is not enough, the key items are good."
After thinking about it, the three curators found that the branch library did not have the national treasure bronzes, but the eighty-one fully armed stone soldiers made up for some of the shortcomings. As for other collections, there are twelve faces of Xiang Yu in the branch library.
Golden gongs, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and even two luminous pearls from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, plus so many jades from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, I don’t know what treasures are contained in the more than 30 iron boxes. Think about it.
The portion is really not low.
"Xiao Mo's ambition is worth encouraging."
Director Fu said with a meaningful smile.
"Director Fu, you still don't believe it. The branch library is currently being renovated overtime. You all know that there will be a separate space for me. When Xiang Yu's treasures are moved in, so will the treasures in my hands.
, when the time comes, we will open a Guyunxuan Pavilion.”
The three curators were stunned, especially Curator Liu from the Magic City Museum, who didn’t know enough about him, so he couldn’t help but curiously asked: “How many good things do you have in your hands?”
"Not much, just a few pieces."
Li Mo continued: "A three-clawed dark dragon with celadon glaze amphora from Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, a bracelet from Yang Guifei, one of the four beauties in history, and a masterpiece painting "Pictures of Emperors of All Dynasties" by Yan Liben from the Tang Dynasty. As for the others
There is also a small-leaf red sandalwood landscape gold painting by Lang Yuling of the Tang Dynasty, an "Inscription on a Humble Room" by Zhu Zhishan, the best curator of the Ming Dynasty, a Tibetan inkstone by Su Shi from Su Dongpo of the Song Dynasty, and a set of six-point tea sets from the Tibetan tea set by Gu Jingzhou, a master of pot art."
"By the way, I still have a crow-skin Tianhuang Yuan stone in my hand that weighs about ten kilograms. I'm going to find a famous sculptor to carve it into an ornament, and then put it in my Gu Yunxuan Museum."
"There are a few gadgets, but they are not worth mentioning."
