Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes

Another secret hole was discovered, and the topic of Emperor Jianwen's treasure was suddenly pushed to the hot spot, and many headlines were quickly broadcast.

The Ningde government also sent several representatives to express their concern. The stones blocking the entrance of the secret cave were cleaned up, and then four armed men entered. After a while, they came out and took off their gas masks.

"What's going on inside?"

"Associate Professor Li, the dense cave is relatively dry. After testing the air, there is no harmful gas except for a little turbidity. We use a machine to send a little more air in, and then arrange for people to pull a wire in. After about 20 minutes, you can enter and exit normally. "

"Okay, thank you everyone."

The people waiting in the valley showed anticipation, but it was impossible for many people to enter. Li Mo asked associate professors from Peking University and Tsinghua University, as well as Yan Qijun, to follow him into the cave first to see what was going on in the cave.

The circuit is pulled up quickly.

"Yan Ju, we are going to enter the cave."

A group of people climbed up the big slope and entered the cave one by one. The electric light in the cave was temporarily pulled all the way, and the light seemed insignificant for the huge cave space. But everyone saw at a glance that thirty or forty wooden boxes had been piled up under the dim light. Besides the wooden boxes, there were also a lot of gold, silver and jade objects scattered on the ground.

Other than that, there is nothing. It seems that this secret cave is purely for hiding treasures and the like.

Li Mo's emotions are well controlled. After all, he has seen this scene a hundred times bigger than this several times, and this little thing can no longer excite him. He walked eight steps forward and squatted down, picking up a piece of gold from the ground.

This piece of gold is about 37 centimeters long, with a handle width of 44 centimeters and weighs 500 grams. It is also inlaid with some jade beads and rubies.

"Ming Ruyi inlaid with jade and inlaid with precious silk and gold, Associate Professor Zheng, please take a look at it one by one. This kind of carving technique is only found in the Ming Palace. Fortunately, it has not been damaged by bumps."

"Let me see."

Zheng Bin hurriedly took it from him, and then looked carefully at the light with other associate professors.

"It's so delicate, so beautiful."

"Perfect."

There was a slight smile on the corner of Li Mo's mouth, that was a good thing. He picked up the second piece of gold from the ground, this one looked very interesting, it was a gold hairpin that actually looked like a spider, inlaid with nine slightly yellowish pearls.

"A gold hairpin inlaid with pearl and crab in Ming Lei silk."

Handing the golden hairpin to Yan Qijun, the craftsmanship of the ancient craftsmen is too exquisite, purely handmade, simple and exquisite.

Li Mo picked up the third gold vessel from the ground, which was also a gold hairpin, a phoenix-shaped gold hairpin. The total length is about 15 cm, the phoenix shape is about 7 cm long, 5 cm wide, and weighs about 40 grams. In terms of exquisiteness, this one is even better.

"A phoenix-shaped hairpin inlaid with bright silk, Associate Professor Zheng, you can register them first and put them in the safe."

"OK."

Several people worked together to tidy up the forty-seven gold, silver and jade articles scattered on the ground one by one.

"Associate Professor Li, should we open some of those boxes first to see what's stored inside?"

"Several of these wooden boxes are made of teak, and they should store very valuable things. You can see that the other wooden boxes are very ordinary. After hundreds of years, these wooden boxes may not be able to withstand tossing."

Li Mo pointed to the five wooden boxes against the wall of the cave. The luster emitted by the surface under the light was obviously different from other wooden boxes. The wooden box was not locked, and the wood falcon dark switch was used, which did not bother Li Mo. He glanced at it with different eyes, then pretended to grope around the side of the wooden box for a while, and finally successfully opened the box lid.

When I opened it, there were clothes inside. But everyone knew that these clothes were not simple at a glance, because the color was bright yellow, and the surface seemed to reflect a kind of luster under the light. The most important thing is that there is still a group of dragon patterns on the surface of the folded clothes.

Obviously this is a dragon robe.

Associate Professor Zheng and another associate professor from Kyoto put on white gloves, carefully took out the dragon robes from the teak box, and slowly unfolded them.

This is a gown with a collar and narrow sleeves. The back of the gown and the two sleeves gradually widen. A pair of buttons and loops are nailed on the right side of the collar, and two pairs of laces are nailed on the large placket for fastening. On the chest, back, left shoulder and right shoulder are decorated with tuanlong patterns, which are the dragon robes worn by Ming emperors.

"Associate Professor Li, I'm not familiar with the costumes of the Ming Dynasty. I don't think this dragon robe is gorgeous enough. Compared with the dragon robes worn by other emperors of the Ming Dynasty, it's a bit shabby."

Zheng Bin is also straightforward, he can say whatever he has.

"In the early Ming Dynasty, Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang referred to Tang Dynasty costumes when making costumes. The cuffs of your dragon robe are very narrow. That's because the founding generals of the Ming Dynasty fought on horseback. Clothes are very uncomfortable and comfortable, so some characteristics of Yuan Dynasty costumes are retained when formulating costumes."

"As for the style of the dragon robe, the twelve chapter patterns were added to the dragon robe in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. You can go to the museum to visit the specific details when you return to Kyoto. In the early Ming Dynasty, the dragon robe was still mainly simple."

Refold the dragon robe of Emperor Jianwen and put it back into the wooden box, then open the second wooden box. As soon as the lid of the box was opened, everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to it. It was a very gorgeous phoenix crown.

The phoenix crown is woven into a round crown with lacquered bamboo silk, and the surface is covered with emerald yarn. The nine dragons on the phoenix crown are all made of gold, and the four phoenixes are made of emerald green. In the middle is a big dragon, holding a big bead in its mouth, with a green cover on the bead, and a string of hanging beads. The other dragons and phoenixes hold beads made of pearls and gemstones in their mouths.

There are forty pieces of wishful clouds inlaid with emerald pearls on the upper part of the crown, and twelve trees of big bead flowers are decorated on the bottom, that is, peonies are strung together with pearls. leaf. Twelve branches of small bead flowers, each branch has one and a half bead flowers, one open, green leaves and five leaves.

The big bead flowers are adorned on the lower part of the crown body and the upper edge of the mouth ring, and the small bead flowers are adorned on top of the big bead flowers, and are adorned between the bead emerald clouds. The outer edge of the bottom of the crown is a green mouth ring, decorated with twelve pearls, gemstones, and emeralds, and a circle of golden rings inlaid in the tori.

Bo temples are placed at the back of the phoenix crown, with an oval-shaped front end, and three leaves on the left and right are gradually closed in the back, embedded in the mouth of the golden dragon, and each leaf is decorated with golden dragons, emerald clouds, pearls, etc. The edge of the side facing the bottom of Bo temple is decorated with beads, and beads are dripping down.

"This is the nine-dragon and four-phoenix crown worn by Empress Ming!"

This is an absolute national treasure.

"Associate Professor Li, this phoenix crown is a little different from the unearthed phoenix crown." Yan Qijun said aloud.

"The models are basically the same, except that the phoenix crowns in the late Ming Dynasty have nine dragons and nine phoenix crowns, and twelve dragons and nine phoenix crowns."

Everyone nodded, it was because Li Mo was very knowledgeable and could explain everything clearly.

Li Mo took out the nine-dragon four-phoenix crown, and gently put it aside. Under the phoenix crown, there was a piece of clothing, judging from the color, it should be worn by the queen.

"This may be the phoenix robe worn by the queen. Let's open it up and have a look." Zheng Bin and another person took out the phoenix robe, unfolded it carefully and set it up in front of everyone.

The outer shirt of the phoenix robe is double-layered. The outer layer is a golden large-sleeved garment embroidered with dragon patterns, and the inner layer is a real red large-sleeved garment, together with Xiapei, a red Robe skirt and a red back, and a gold and jade belt for the belt.

"This is the Yanju Guanfu, which is the common clothes worn by the empresses of the Ming Dynasty. It is not the real phoenix robe." Li Mo carefully identified the style of the phoenix robe. They are only worn when meeting ancestors and attending court meetings, and the etiquette regulations are generally nine dragons and four phoenix crowns, Zhai clothes and fu collars, etc."

After Li Mo finished speaking, he walked to the wooden box and looked down, then said with a smile: "The next one is the phoenix robe of Empress Ming."
