But I didn't expect that there was a bronze mirror in the box. The diameter of the mirror was 24 cm. The edge of the mirror was in the shape of eight petals of sunflower. Below the pattern on the back of the mirror was a lotus pool with water waves. A lotus leaf rose slowly in the pool, and a turtle was held up on it. The lotus leaf was used as the button seat of the bronze mirror, and the Turtle was used as the button of the mirror, which was ingenious and natural.
On the right side of the mirror button, there is a virtuous man with a beautiful crown, a broad ribbon, and a piano. Behind him is a thick bamboo forest and new bamboo shoots. In front of him is a long table with books, inkstones and censers. It is elegant and leisurely.
On the left side of the mirror button, there is a phoenix that flutters its wings and looks back on the rocks. Behind it are two lush flowers and trees. There is a sea of clouds on the top of the mirror button, and the red sun is slowly rising from the clouds.
In the outer area, there is an inscription with a week: "Phoenix double mirror, southern gold dress, yin and yang are matched, sun and moon meet each other forever, white jade Furong box, jade jade Qiongyao belt, people of one heart, heart to heart, heart to heart, courage to keep spring."
Although Lin Xi knew something about bronze mirrors and had seen the auspicious animal grape mirrors handed down by the family of Chunchun, it was the first time that he saw such bronze mirrors.
But even if he saw it for the first time, it didn't mean that he didn't know the bronze mirror. On the contrary, this type of bronze mirror is relatively famous, even above the auspicious beast grape mirror.
"Excuse me, old man. How did you get this bronze mirror?"
Although Lin Xi knew something about the bronze mirror, perhaps it was because of his career. He was not in a hurry to start, but first asked about the origin of the bronze mirror.
"I'm not an outsider. What's the risk! I got this old object a few days ago. I heard the seller say that he brought it back from abroad. When Yuanmingyuan was in disaster, he was robbed by foreigners, and then he picked it up by accident. When I came back, because I had something to ask for my help, I used this bronze mirror in exchange. Seeing this bronze mirror, I had some ideas and agreed to his request. "
Yutianwang didn't hide it. He didn't have any problem telling the origin of the bronze mirror, but he did. What he taught him about the bronze mirror was to ask him to agree to.
In other words, the conditions that the man asked him to agree to were dispensable to him!
"So it is! Mr. old man, you've found something missing this time. The origin of this bronze mirror is not small. It's Zhenzi Feishuang mirror in Sui and Tang Dynasties. It's a treasure in bronze mirror. Moreover, this object is handed down from generation to generation, and it's well preserved, which greatly increases the collection value.
without using it for hundreds of years, you can see the origin of this bronze mirror from the pictures and pictures on the north side of Lin Xi's boutique With the ability of heavenly eye, it's easy to distinguish true from false.
"In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Zhenzi Feishuang mirror? Why, this name sounds a bit like a Japanese name "
after hearing Lin Xi's words, yutianwang frowned. Although he was a Uygur, he also came from the era of chaos and resented the invaders. If it was really Japanese, he would rather not.
"Mr. Xu guessed what yutianwang was thinking, but Lin Xi explained with a smile. After all, the old people like yutianwang thought that although he was a big man, he was not surprised If you can't let her know clearly about someone's stubborn feelings, such as hating the invaders, I'm afraid that the knot in her heart will never open.
"The Tang Dynasty was one of the prosperous periods for the all-round development of Taoism. Taoism respected" the art of Huang Lao "and" seeking immortality "to meet the needs of royal rule, and was always supported and worshipped. During the reign of Tang Dynasty for nearly 300 years, the state vigorously developed Taoism and widely built Taoist temples. Tang Taizong worshipped Laozi Li'er as his ancestor and used Taoism to cast a mysterious color on the rule of the Tang Dynasty
"Under the fanatical pursuit and strong esteem of the upper rulers, Taoism had a far-reaching influence, which was manifested in all fields of the society at that time. For example, the bronze mirror caster engraved Taoist patterns or fairy stories on the back of the bronze mirror, and the Zhenzi Feishuang mirror was one of the best. "
hearing Lin Xi's introduction, Yu Tianwang was suspicious and asked," really? "
"Of course it's true, old man. You see, this real son is the immortal xuanzhenzi in the ancient legend. As for the word" Feishuang ", it should be taken from the" dream into xianlou, jiacanqu, Feishuang on the edge of Qiuyu ", which expresses people's pursuit of transcendence in music. No matter the fresh and elegant lotus pond, the flying phoenix, the floating clouds and the thousand year old tortoise, they are undoubtedly the vivid embodiment of Taoism's idea of seeking immortality and longevity. This "Zhenzi Feishuang" mirror is full in composition and rich in content. It reflects the Tang people's pursuit of seclusion in the mountains and a detached and selfless lifestyle. It is the embodiment of Taoism in the bronze mirror culture
"Then there is the inscription on it, which means praising the exquisite casting of the bronze mirror and expressing sincere love. The first sentence of "Phoenix double mirrors" conveys such a message, so this bronze mirror should have been in pairs at that time, but later it was lost, and it was just this one left ··· "
Lin Xi pointed to the bronze mirror in the box and explained the origin of the Northern pattern and inscription, which made the Jade King dispel his doubts and believe what he said."I'm ashamed. I'm so confused. I almost misunderstood this treasure. It's really wrong"
when Yu Tianwang woke up, he suddenly looked ashamed. He seemed really guilty.
"You don't have to blame yourself, old man. You are the king of the jade industry. Anyone who sees you has to go through three points, and these old things are not your specialty, so it's normal to miss them."
Lin Xi feels that it's normal for him to be ashamed of Yu Tianwang. After all, there is a special field of martial arts, and no one can be omniscient. It's normal for him not to know. He is afraid of sticking to his own opinions. He is clearly wrong, but he refuses to admit it.
"Eh, no, there's something wrong with this mirror"
at this time, Lin Xi seemed to notice something, his eyes were surprised, and he was slightly curious, as if he saw something interesting.
Hearing Lin Xi's words, Yu Tianwang was also puzzled and asked, "how, did you find anything?"
Lin Xi nodded, but did not say no. after pondering for a moment, he said thoughtfully, "old man, I have found something interesting. Could you please ask someone to send me some clothes, white gloves, a magnifying glass, and a strong light flashlight"
