It’s a Bit Early To Cross
Vol 2 Chapter 1205: eyeing
Snake heads, sheep heads, grandparents took them back from the emperor's house in the Qing Dynasty!
Combining these keywords together, all Chu Heng could think of was the twelve animal heads that were snatched by the Eight-Power Allied Forces in the Old Summer Palace!
This Yuanmingyuan is a large royal garden in the Qing Dynasty in my country. It is known as the "Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens". It is famous all over the world for its grand geographical scale, outstanding construction skills, exquisite architecture, rich cultural collections and profound national cultural connotations. , known as "the model of all gardening arts".
In 1707, the Qing Dynasty started construction of the Old Summer Palace. After several dynasties, I don’t know how much manpower and material resources were poured into it, and there are countless treasures inside.
Among the many buildings in the park, there is a sea banquet hall, and there is a green pond under the stairs in front of the gate. There are 12 fountains on the green pond, and the statues that spray water are the twelve animal heads.
The twelve animal heads were designed by the European missionary Italian Castiglione, supervised by the French Jiang Youren, and made by Qing court craftsmen.
When the Eight-Power Allied Forces entered the Old Summer Palace to burn, kill, and loot, the thieves cut off the twelve animal heads and swept them away with other treasures.
For a long time in later generations, after countless twists and turns, only the heads of eight animals including pikas, rabbits, cows and tigers were found, and the whereabouts of snakes, sheep, chickens and dogs have been unknown.
Unexpectedly, Chu Heng chatted casually for a while, and actually asked about the whereabouts of two of them!
However, what Camille said was a little vague, and he was still a little afraid to confirm it for a while, so Chu Heng pondered for a while, and then began to make side-swipes at Adolf and his wife in the way of small talk.
"If I remember correctly, Ben Shaming should be a descendant of a nobleman, right?"
"Oh! I didn't expect you to know this. Yes, he is a descendant of an earl family."
"Then his family members should be very powerful?"
"Most of them are. In his family, Ben Shamin is a well-known collector. His grandfather was a vice admiral, his father was the mayor of Nantes, and his younger brother was a successful businessman. His sister is an out-and-out whore, trash!"
"Oh? What happened to his sister?"
"She doesn't do anything all day long, she only knows how to spend the family's money, and she also sleeps with various men. Every day, she has different bed partners. She even slept with her nephew when she was drunk once!"
"Oh, **** it, what a wretched woman!"
"Yes, there is nothing worse than her!"
"Forget it, let's not talk about her, she makes me sick, let's talk about his grandfather."
"What do you want to know? Just ask."
…
While choosing things, Chu Heng inquired about the news with Adolf and his wife. After chatting for a long time, he finally found out that Ben Shaming’s grandfather had indeed participated in the burning of the Old Summer Palace and brought back many treasures, such as snake heads and sheep heads. There is indeed something!
"Thank you so much, Chu, I think Ben Shaming will like these porcelains."
At this time, Chu Heng had already finished selecting things for Adolf and his wife. Except for the items from the Republic of China, these items were from folk kilns in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It's something that opens doors...
"You're welcome, Adolf, aren't we friends? This is what I should do." Chu Heng patted Adolf on the shoulder perfunctorily, with a sincere and enthusiastic expression on his face, looking like a master, but he was thinking about Ben in his heart. Sha Ming, to be precise, is the various Chinese treasures in his hands and the animal heads endowed with special meaning.
It's okay if you don't know.
Now that we know who owns it, if we don’t want to find a way to get it out, our thinking will be incomprehensible!
In an instant, the 800 minds on the grandson's body began to spin wildly again, and countless ghost ideas swarmed out. The shadow behind him grew horns, a tail, and a street lamp at some point.
"Juji!"
At this moment, Avima and Anna, who were visiting other places, came over. Seeing that Adolf was here, Anna stepped forward and smiled at them: "Oh, my God, Adolf, Camille, why are you here too?" This? What a coincidence."
"Long time no see, my Camille." After greeting Adolf, Avima ran to Camille, and the two embraced vigorously.
Before this woman became a convict, she and Lamir often exchanged poker experiences together, and they would even play a game when they were interested. It can be said that they are very close...
So they chatted for a while, and after learning that Aiweima and Chu Heng had a good relationship, Camille's eyes lit up instantly.
She quickly pulled her good sister aside and whispered to her. From time to time, the two would look at Chu Heng excitedly, as if a predator was sizing up her body. Prey in general.
After a long time like this.
Just when Adolf was about to wait in a hurry, the two finally finished their chat.
Camille returned to her husband and apologized: "I'm sorry, dear, I haven't seen Avima for a long time, and I couldn't hold back and talked for a long time. You know, she encountered a lot of troubles in the previous period and needed comfort .”
"I understand, I understand, I don't blame you, my dear." Adolf smiled at her, kissed her on the cheek again, and then said goodbye to Chu Heng and the others under the watchful eyes of several red-faced salesmen , and leave hand in hand.
After watching them go away, Aiweima winked and pulled Chuheng's arm, and said, "Chu, guess what we talked about just now?"
"I don't want to guess, and I'm not interested." Chu Heng immediately rolled his eyes and turned to go to the third floor, ready to look at the fabric.
He's not blind, he can guess what the two are talking about just by looking at the rippling expressions on Camille's chat with Aiweima, so why ask?
"You are really boring." Aiweima chased after him with a sad face, and whispered in his ear: "She wants to sleep with you, do you want to think about it? Camille's skills are very good, trust me of…"
"Shut up!"
Chu Heng stopped, interrupted her with a dark face, and said with a frown: "Tell her, let her stop dreaming, I love my wife, and I'm not interested in her."
Aiwei Ma was immediately disappointed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Not reconciled, she thought about it for a while and added another dose of medicine: "Please, Chu, she really likes you, so go try it. In this way, If you are willing to promise her, I can also join..."
"If you keep talking nonsense, believe it or not, I will kick you out right now?" Chu Heng, who was still thinking about Ben Shaming, didn't have the heart to chat with her, so he gave her a cold look, and then went back without looking back. up to the third floor.
Seeing that he seemed a little angry, Aiweima immediately calmed down, and complained to Anna beside her a little annoyed: "Damn it, I really don't know what Chu is thinking, but he doesn't even eat the meat that is brought to his mouth! "
"Hehe, first of all, you have to find out who is the meat." Anna squinted at her with a half-smile, then slowly stretched out her hand to pinch the ruby ring on the index finger of her other hand, and gently stuffed Sai into it. So she followed Chu Heng away with graceful steps.
"Hey hey! Of course it's Chu!"
Aiweima strode to catch up with her, her smile was very wretched.
