Seeing that the situation was getting more and more unfavorable for him, Ruan Jiahao asked loudly: "Then why is there no seal? There is no orderly inheritance of the collection? No one has mentioned it yet?"
"We don't know either. Maybe there are some clues in the inscriptions and postscripts of the three emperors." Wang Teng continued, "So I want to ask Xiao Shen, do you know the reason? Let's listen to it, and it can be solved. This mystery."
"Don't worry, if it's hard to say, don't say it. Just say what you can say." Huang Feng also smiled and said, "The three of us will support you for this treasure. It must be genuine! No matter who has any doubts, You can come and check it. If it is fake, it proves that the three of us are old-sighted and have no ability."
As soon as his words came out, Ruan Jiahao's face immediately turned pale.
These are three people who identified and repaired it, and they have come to their own conclusions. I support it!
As the most well-known calligraphy and painting appraisers in the country, if they say it is true, no one will doubt it.
As for inspection, that is even more of a joke!
When buying antiques in China, especially things like calligraphy and paintings, it all depends on your eyesight.
If you tell others, you can sell it to me, but I need to do a carbon-14 year test. If it is genuine, I will buy it.
Then people will definitely answer you, you can get away as far as you want, if you don’t buy it, you will be defeated!
Because such people don’t understand what carbon-14 testing is.
Carbon 14 testing can only be used to detect a constant substance, such as porcelain that does not change much after being fired successfully.
But even so, the determination of carbon 14 can only be a basic and general identification.
It cannot be accurate to a specific year, and it cannot even be accurate to within 50 years, but is usually within a range of around 100 years.
Even porcelain is like this, let alone calligraphy and painting.
How are paper and ink made? What materials are used? Is there air convection during placement? What is the impact of framing on calligraphy and painting
What's more important is that calligraphy and painting need to undergo various repairs every certain year.
What kind of changes will occur when the paints, materials, etc. that penetrate into the repair are mixed with the original raw materials
…
There are too many uncertain factors that make it impossible for calligraphy and painting to be detected by carbon 14.
Those who say that the most advanced equipment in the United States can be found are all just bragging.
Even they don't know that the results of carbon 14 can only be used as a reference in the archaeological community and can never be used as evidence.
Ruan Jiahao also understood this, so he was so panicked.
If the judgment results of the three teachers are presented, even the most demanding domestic collectors will admit it.
Because these are three masters in the calligraphy and painting industry who often appear in the National Museum and the Royal Palace!
If they can't recognize the characters of these four people, it would be a joke! !
Looking at Ruan Jiahao's pale face, the young man smiled and nodded.
This is a cover-up method that I just came up with last night. It would be strange for you to know.
Shen Huan said slowly: "I also heard a story from the buyer. It is said that during the three years when Qianlong abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor, the palace was under the management of two systems, which allowed many people to take advantage of the loopholes. Of course, the most powerful one was He Shen, who moved countless treasures from the palace back home.
Among them, the eunuchs, big and small, also worked hard and took out a lot of treasures to sell. This exquisite painting by Dong Qichang, "Later Departs from the Teacher", is one of them.
But the rich man who bought this copybook didn't dare to speak or show off, otherwise it would be a serious crime of beheading! So he kept it and hid it.
Until the continuous wars and disputes later, it had no chance to be born. Finally, in the past few years, the descendants of this rich man found it out of the old house, and it spread to the outside world.
It happened that this rich man returned to his hometown of Lin'an in his later years, so the place where he was born was also in our Lin'an. By chance, I bought it. "
The people below nodded repeatedly and were immersed in the story.
Although the three teachers maintained a certain degree of skepticism, this statement was indeed very reliable, otherwise there would be no way to explain why there was no trace of Qianlong after his death.
"How did it spread from Dong Qichang to the Qing Palace?" Wang Teng couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know about this." Shen Huan spread his hands.
The principle of lying is to say as little as possible, otherwise you will make more mistakes.
"Who doesn't know how to make up stories?" Young Master Ruan snorted coldly, obviously not believing Shen Huan.
"However, I have heard that the eunuch who sold it back then said why there was no seal." Shen Huan ignored him and continued, "Everyone knows that Emperor Kangxi's favorite is Dong Qichang's calligraphy, so after getting this treasure, I immediately wrote more than 70 words on the top of the copybook.
Perhaps he forgot to use the seal in his excitement, but that was what happened when it came into the hands of Emperor Yongzheng. Then Yongzheng wrote two lines of words himself because of Kangxi, but also did not use the seal.
Finally, the third emperor Qianlong came. When he saw such a treasure, he originally wanted to use the seal, but he also considered that neither his father nor grandfather used the seal. In order to show respect for his elders, he finally gave up. Got this idea.
His thoughts are actually reflected in his inscription and postscript, "Both the Holy Ancestor and Shizong cherished this treasure. It is a pity that I endured it even if I wanted to do it." This is what he wrote about. "
"When you put it like that, it seems to echo that sentence." Yan Zhishan nodded slightly, rather believing the story.
The same goes for the remaining Wang Teng and Huang Feng.
Since Qianlong said this, there must be such a thing and it can be echoed back and forth.
As for whether it's too much of a coincidence, it doesn't matter.
There are many weirder and more incredible things that have happened in history.
Since the three of them are engaged in cultural relics, calligraphy and painting, of course they are also historians. They have heard a lot about the more absurd and bizarre things.
Compared with those, the story of this copybook is simply not worth mentioning.
Of course, this is all based on their belief that the three inscriptions and postscripts are authentic works written by the three emperors.
If it can be proven that the handwriting of these three emperors is fake, then this inference will be completely shattered, and Dong Qichang's "The Later Disciple" by Shen Huan cannot be considered authentic.
Ruan Jiahao wanted to prove it himself, but he also understood that there was absolutely no way that these three teachers could have any problems with the emperor's handwriting.
So after Zhu Xirui asked him, he chose to give up questioning with a livid face.
The calligraphy and painting expert also looked very ugly, but he didn't feel that he was wrong.
Because the characters on the inscriptions and postscripts of the three emperors were so small that when he used his mobile phone to enlarge it, he could not see clearly at all. How could he distinguish the authenticity from the fake
The victorious boy first smiled and glanced at the boy who was no longer arrogant, and then revealed which painting was a fake.
He pointed to Wen Zhengming's "Du Fu's Spring Look" and said, "On Zhu Zhishan's "Su Shi's Butterfly Loves Flowers and Other Five Poems", there is Wen Zhengming's inscription.
This imitator must have seen this copybook, so he thought of adding Zhu Zhishan's inscription to Wen Zhengming's copybook, so as to make it look fake. But the problem lies in this inscription. "
"There is nothing wrong with the word Zhu Zhishan." Huang Feng said, "'The Dou bandits have an old hatred, and they have been dreaming for ten years, and they are frightened. They have been idle for a long time, and the sun is sparse and the sun is sparse, and they are lonely in Wucheng.' This is from Qin Guan "The Courtyard is Full of Fragrant Dawn and Blooming Clouds" coincides with the artistic conception of "Du Fu's Spring Look"."
"But I have seen this line written by Zhu Zhishan in Shen Zhou's painting "Zhaojun Leaving the Fortress"." Shen Huan said, "With Zhu Zhishan's talent and Zhu Zhishan's arrogance, it is impossible for him to use a line of poetry in the works of two people. It’s impossible to even use it twice!”
"ah!"
The three teachers suddenly exclaimed.
There are so many paintings in the world, and it is certainly impossible for three teachers to have seen them all.
The painting Shen Huan mentioned is actually not important.
The important thing is his analysis of Zhu Zhishan, which is very correct.
How could Zhu Zhishan use a poem twice? Are you even using it to write postscripts for others
Isn't this an insult to his teacher Shen Zhou, and is it also offending his friend Wen Zhengming
Shen Huan took out his mobile phone again and found a picture, "Three teachers, please look at it. People in ancient times may not have the conditions to watch carefully. But if we use modern equipment and make a careful comparison, You will find that the sentence in "Zhaojun Leaving the Fortress" is exactly the same as this painting! The forger used this painting as a model to copy!"
The three of them gathered in front of the mobile phone and looked at it, then looked up at the copybook above. After reading it several times in a row, they nodded unconsciously.
Unexpectedly, this copyist was so powerful that he almost deceived them.
"Xiao Shen, your vision is really amazing!" Yan Zhishan praised, "They say you are a genius. I think you are also a genius in antique calligraphy and painting... How about it? When you have free time, Come and sit in our museum? Let’s communicate?”
"I will definitely have the opportunity to ask the three teachers for advice in the future." Shen Huan said modestly.
"Haha, but I still have a question now." Wang Teng asked Shen Huan, "The reason why you want to check whether it is an authentic work is because you bought two calligraphy paintings one after another?"
"Not one after another, we bought them together." Shen Huan smiled bitterly, "The calligraphy seller also made up a good allusion for the two brothers for me, and then I didn't see the flaw, so I bought it excitedly. In the end, I paid a high price to learn a lesson.”
The audience under the stage laughed when they heard this.
It was rare to see Shen Huan feel depressed.
I didn’t expect that geniuses can also poke eyes!
