A treasure-appraisal maniac

"I'll go, this emperor is so cruel!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, because giving such an imperial edict on a plate is indeed cruel."

Everyone had mixed feelings, but Wang Xinyi and Chen Xiang were fascinated by what they heard. They rolled their eyes and asked, "What happened next?"

"Later~~"

Lu Fei took a breath of smoke and said: "In the feudal era, the deterrence of this imperial edict was strong enough. In fact, it didn't matter that Zhu Zhanji destroyed the formula and design experience. During that period, China's porcelain making technology had reached the level of proficiency. There is more than one master who can create a big market, but no one dares to disobey Zhu Zhanji's authority."

Kong Jiaqi kept staring at the market, and after Lu Fei finished speaking, he couldn't wait to ask: "Brother, I found that the five-clawed blue dragon on the market is very domineering, giving people a visual impact that makes them stand out. Isn't this right?" Was it painted by Emperor Xuande himself?"

Lu Fei nodded: "Yes, Zhu Zhanji personally designed and drew it, and personally participated in the firing. This is also one of the values ​​of this large plate."

As he said that, Lu Fei sighed, unable to conceal his disappointment.

Kong Jiaqi touched the bottom of the stamp and suddenly frowned: "Brother, this seal is very strange. The seal has obvious bulges. This shouldn't be the case!"

Lu Fei smiled bitterly and said, "The seal was added later, what's so strange about that?"

"Added it later?"

Kong Jiaqi touched the seal carefully and looked at it again and again with wide eyes. Her eyes were full of disbelief: "That shouldn't be the case. I think the seal is integrated with the porcelain plate. How could it be like this if it was added later?"

"Actually, it's not as difficult as you think. As long as you have a method, it's actually very simple. First stamp the seal, then carve out shallow grooves according to the traces of the seal, then polish it, and then add a mixture of pig sand and vegetable gum. After the paint is completely dry, apply a layer of rosin and sealing wax, and finally bake it for two hours at a temperature between 250 and 350 degrees. It’s that simple.”

Kong Jiaqi listened to it again and kept it in her mind, her eyes gleaming. Listening to Lu Fei's words, Chen Xiang's thoughts went back to when she first met Lu Fei. She witnessed Lu Fei repairing microwave ovens and toaster ovens with her own eyes. Repairing porcelain, she also saw her husband repairing steel knives with a carbon furnace. Her reaction at that time was the same as Kong Jiaqi's now. They both found it incredible. After witnessing so many magical things about Lu Fei, she became numb. At this moment She finally understood that it was not that her man was so amazing, but that Lu Fei knew more methods than others.

After remembering Lu Fei's words clearly, Kong Jiaqi continued to ask: "But why didn't you put the seal on the plate when you fired it, and then have to deal with it again later? Isn't this troublesome?"

Lu Fei smiled, pointed at the seal and said, "What does the seal say?

Changchun Zhenren, this is a Taoist title. Zhu Zhanji did not have this Taoist title in his early years, but he highly praised Taoism. In the sixth year of Xuande, Zhu Zhanji entered Quanzhen. In the ninth year of Xuande, he received the Taoist title of Changchun. Quanzhen announced to the world that Zhu Zhanji was a real person in name only, so he got the Taoist name Changchun Zhenren. Zhu Zhanji valued his "status" in Taoism very much, so he added his Taoist name to his favorite list. The nine-five-year-old blue and white cloud and dragon pattern is on top of the plate, which is another aspect of this plate that adds points. "

"After Zhu Zhanji passed away, this large plate was passed to his son Ming Yingzong, who in turn passed it to Emperor Jingtai, and then passed it down from generation to generation. Emperors of all dynasties followed Zhu Zhanji's imperial edict and enshrined this large plate. It wasn't until it was passed down to the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao that he had other ideas. Zhu Houzhao, like Zhu Zhanji, loved blue and white platters very much. He was itching to think that his ancestor Zhu Zhanji would get a blue and white platter as a commemoration of his accession to the throne. He was very good at it, and wanted to imitate it, and even get a bigger plate that was more powerful than his ancestors to show his ability. But after thinking about it again and again, he was still worried that his ancestors would come and strangle him to death in the middle of the night, so he didn't dare to do anything wrong, but this man is quite stubborn. , and was very unwilling to do so, so he thought of a good way to imitate the large plate with blue and white clouds and dragon patterns. As long as the size did not exceed that of his ancestors, it could not be regarded as a treasonous act of deceiving his master and destroying his ancestors.

Thinking of it, he started to take action. During the reign of Emperor Zhengde, he made a total of nineteen blue and white large plates and gave three of them to his ministers.

Among them, you should have seen the large blue and white cloud and dragon pattern dish given to Yang Yanhe, Jiaqi! "

Kong Jiaqi nodded, and the pattern of the blue and white plate instantly appeared in his mind.

The large plate with blue and white cloud and dragon patterns has a diameter of 46.5 cm and a bottom diameter of 27.7 cm. It has an open mouth, shallow arc walls, a flat bottom and a circle foot. Annotation on the plate: "Emperor Zhu Shihouzhao of the Ming Dynasty gave it to Yang Yanhe, the minister of the Ming Dynasty, who rewarded him for seven years of Zhengde." The inside of the plate is decorated with double dragons. Look at the dragon pattern, with two horns and five claws, leaping in the air, strong and powerful. , with sprouting beard and beard, exposed canthus and claws, vigorous and powerful, and extremely delicate brushstrokes. The carcass of this vessel is thick, the glaze color is blue and white, the blue and white hair color is deep, and there are black crystal spots in the rich and colorful places. The bottom of the vessel is exposed, showing mottled and uneven ocher spots, which is beautiful and lifelike. It is now collected in the museum. Compared with the large plate in front of you, the size is indeed smaller. "Go ahead, this emperor is so cruel!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, because giving such an imperial edict on a plate is indeed cruel."

Everyone had mixed feelings, but Wang Xinyi and Chen Xiang were fascinated by what they heard. They rolled their eyes and asked, "What happened next?"

"Later~~"

Lu Fei took a puff of cigarette and said, "In the feudal era, the deterrent power of this imperial edict was strong enough. In fact, it didn't matter if Zhu Zhanji destroyed the formula and design experience. At that time, the porcelain making technology in Shenzhou had reached the level of perfection. There were more than one master who could make a large plate, but no one dared to disobey Zhu Zhanji's authority."

Kong Jiaqi kept staring at the large plate. After Lu Fei finished speaking, he couldn't wait to ask, "Brother, I found that the five-clawed green dragon on this large plate is very domineering, giving people a visual impact of being at the top of the world. Could it be that Emperor Xuande drew it himself?"

Lu Fei nodded, "Yes, Zhu Zhanji designed and drew it himself, and personally participated in the firing. This is also one of the values ​​of this large plate."

As he said, Lu Fei sighed, unable to hide his disappointment.

Kong Jiaqi touched the bottom and suddenly frowned: "Brother, this seal is very strange, the seal has obvious bulges, this shouldn't be!" Lu Fei smiled bitterly and said: "The seal was added later, what's strange about this?" "Added later?" Kong Jiaqi touched the seal carefully, stared at it again and again, full of disbelief: "It shouldn't be, I think this seal and the porcelain plate are integrated, how can it be added later to this extent?" "In fact, it's not as difficult as you think. As long as you have a method, it's actually very simple. First, print the seal, then carve a shallow groove according to the trace of the seal, then polish it, and then add a mixture of pig sand and vegetable glue. Pigment, etc. After the material is completely dry, apply a layer of rosin and sealing wax, and finally bake it in a space between 250 and 350 degrees for two hours. It's that simple. "

Kong Jiaqi listened and memorized it silently in her heart, and her eyes were shining. Listening to Lu Fei's words, Chen Xiang's thoughts also returned to the time when she first met Lu Fei. She witnessed Lu Fei using microwave ovens and electric ovens to repair porcelain, and she also saw her man using a carbon furnace to repair steel knives. Her reaction at that time was the same as Kong Jiaqi's now. They all felt incredible. After witnessing too many magical things about Lu Fei, she became numb. Now she finally understood that it was not that her man was too magical, but that Lu Fei knew more methods than others.

Remembering Lu Fei's words clearly, Kong Jiaqi continued to ask: "But why didn't you draw the seal when firing the plate? Why did you have to deal with it again later? Isn't it troublesome?"

Lu Fei smiled and pointed at the seal and said: "What does the seal say?

Changchun Zhenren, this is a Taoist name. Zhu Zhanji didn't have this Taoist name in his early years, but he respected Taoism very much. In the sixth year of Xuande, Zhu Zhanji entered Quanzhen. In the ninth year of Xuande, he got the Taoist name Changchun. The following year, Quanzhen announced to the world that Zhu Zhanji was a nominal Zhenren, so he had the Taoist name Changchun Zhenren. Zhu Zhanji valued his "status" in Taoism very much, so he added his Taoist name to his favorite blue and white cloud dragon pattern Jiuwuzhizun plate, which is another aspect of this plate."

"After Zhu Zhanji passed away, this plate was passed on to his son Ming Yingzong, Ming Yingzong passed it on to Emperor Jingtai, and then it was passed down from generation to generation. The emperors of all dynasties followed Zhu Zhanji's imperial edict and put this The plate was worshipped until it was passed down to the hands of Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao. Then he had other ideas. Zhu Houzhao, like Zhu Zhanji, loved the blue and white plate very much. Thinking that his ancestor Zhu Zhanji made a blue and white plate as a commemoration of his accession to the throne, he was also very itchy in his heart and wanted to imitate it, and even make a plate that was more awesome than his ancestor to show his ability. But after thinking it over again and again, he was still worried that his ancestor would come and strangle him to death in the middle of the night, so he didn't dare to do anything. But this man was stubborn and very unwilling, so he thought of a good way to imitate the blue and white cloud dragon pattern plate. As long as the size did not exceed that of the ancestor, it would not be considered as a treasonous act of betraying the teacher and destroying the ancestors.

Once he thought of it, he began to act. During the reign of Emperor Zhengde, a total of 19 blue and white plates were imitated, and three of them were awarded to his ministers.

Among them, the blue and white cloud dragon pattern plate awarded to Yang Yanhe, Jiaqi, you should have seen it! "

Kong Jiaqi nodded, and the pattern of the blue and white plate instantly appeared in her mind.

The blue and white dragon-patterned plate has a diameter of 46.5 cm and a bottom diameter of 27.7 cm. It is open, with a shallow arc wall, a flat bottom, and a ring foot. The note on the plate reads: "The Emperor Zhu Houzhao of the Ming Dynasty awarded it to Yang Yanhe, a minister of the inner Ming Dynasty, in the seventh year of the Zhengde reign." The inner arc wall of the plate is decorated with two dragons. The dragon pattern has two horns and five claws, leaping in the air, vigorous and powerful, with a beard bursting, claws exposed, vigorous and powerful, and extremely delicate brushwork. The body of this vessel is thick, the glaze is bluish-white, the blue and white color is deep, and there are black crystal spots in the rich and colorful places. The bottom of the vessel is exposed, showing uneven ochre spots, which is beautiful and lifelike. It is now collected in the National Museum. Compared with the large plate in front of you, the size is indeed smaller.
