Guan Zheng and Xu Jiuyan looked over together. The woman was wearing a cheongsam with a simple shawl on her upper body and her hair neatly tied. The woman said, "Your wife is lovely and beautiful. This jade is pure in color and has no impurities, so naturally it matches. As an outsider, I think I should look at it again. You should also think about it, are your requirements too high?"
Guan Zheng smiled and said, "Sister, what we are here to buy is a wedding anniversary gift. How can we lower our horizons?"
The woman chuckled and said, "Take me offense then."
The little old man greeted her and said, "Ms. Su, are you here? What are you watching today?"
The woman smiled slightly and said, "You don't need to worry about me, just greet your guests. I will see for myself."
The little old man replied: "Okay, do it yourself!"
Regarding the situation, Guan Zheng said: "Since you still have guests, we won't bother you, and trouble you."
The little old man nodded and said, "It's okay, you can turn around again."
Guan Zheng pulled Xu Jiuyan out of the antique shop like escaping, Xu Jiuyan asked: "Why are you running so fast? Can antique shops eat people?"
Guan Zheng shook his head and said, "This store is too weird, especially the woman in cheongsam."
"What's the matter with that woman? Isn't the Chinese style very popular now?" Xu Jiuyan didn't understand the meaning of Guanzheng.
Guan Zheng explained: "The attitude of that woman is obviously observing and testing us. Looking at her figure, it is not the bloated middle-aged woman, but a bit like a practitioner. The cultural heritage in this old street is so. It’s so deep, who would say it’s good if there is something hidden."
Xu Jiuyan nodded and said, "Then let's go quickly and go to another house."
Guan Zheng took a fancy to another shop on the street and said, "This is it, Qingfeng Building?"
Xu Jiuyan frowned and looked at it several times, and said, "Is this Qingfeng Tower? Are you reading it right now?"
"Are you going to read it backwards? Lou Fengqing?" Guan Zheng said, pulling Xu Jiuyan into the store, no matter how he reads it, anyway, this is a store.
As soon as Guan Zheng entered the door, he yelled, "Treasurer, let's get things!"
Only then came out a man in a long robe. This man was about forty or fifty years old, with a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, which looked like a scholastic student.
The man didn't even have a smile on his face, he looked lifeless as if he had come from the underworld. Guan Zheng was not afraid, and said, "What do you want to recommend to us?"
"Do you really want to buy something?" The man in the robe asked such a sentence.
Guan Zheng was not nervous at all, and said, "Don't we seem to be here to buy things?"
"People who really buy antiques don't go to the store." The man in the robe said: "Antiques are the most eye-catching. Once you see this item, it is a treasure to start with. You will definitely not pay as much attention to the price as you do. Because some things are invaluable to some people. You came to me as soon as you came out from the other side. It is difficult for me to recommend our things to you."
Guanzheng nodded and said, "I know, but our couple don't know what to buy, we just like this antique thing. You just said the eyeballs, you just didn't like the things in that house. Sheep tallow jade is not like mutton tallow jade, and ancient characters are not like ancient characters. We cannot tolerate it."
The man in the robe said, "Why don't you take a look at this?"
Guan Zheng looked at that step and said, "Does this have any meaning?"
The man in the robe said: "This is the sway worn by Empress Du at the end of the Ming Dynasty. The silver-inlaid crystal butterfly love flower auspicious sway. Empress Du, one of the imperial concubines of Emperor Ming Shizong, was the mother of Emperor Mu of Ming Dynasty.
This is one of Empress Du's dowry. It is made of gold, silver, jade and other textures. It is a headdress that has been circulating since the Song and Ming Dynasties. Its shape and texture are both symbols of rank and status. After the Han Dynasty, Bu Yao was gradually seen by the people, and it had the opportunity to spread widely in the society. Among aristocratic women, a swaying crown added to the crown was also practiced. Wearing on the head is more rich and luxurious than stepping.
The concept of Bu Yao was seen in the Han Dynasty. However, it was placed within the scope of a dress from the beginning. The Han system stipulated that the first dress in the sacrificial clothing of the empress dowager and empress dowager was "cut yak," Hairpins, ears, hanging beads, hairpins, one foot long, the upper is the phoenix jue, the jade is the hair feather, the lower is the white beads, the gold tweezers are hanging down, one on each side, the horizontal hairpin. To secure the knot. The queen’s clothes are the same, but with false knots, the step is to use gold as the mountain title, and the white beads are the laurel branches. One jue, nine flowers, bear, tiger, red dragon, Tianlu, warding off evil spirits, Nanshan Fengda special six beasts, all the noble beasts are feathered with jade, gold inscribed with white beads, and the jade is the flower. According to the "Book of the Later Han·Wu Heng Biography", China has a bamboo and a sway. The sway is A chignon like Heji has the same status, and then analyzes the portrayal of the queen in the first suit. With gold as the mountain title, it is with gold as the base frame and decorated with white beads.
Similar shapes, such as the golden flower tree-like swaying of Qianyan in the Jin Dynasty and Sixteen Kingdoms period unearthed in Sihuayingzi Township, Beipiao, Liaoning Province, the bottom is square, the top is a short and wide trunk, and the trunk is branched. The tree is covered with peach-shaped leaves, which tremble slightly when moving, and Cong Cong makes a sound. Although there are no white beads, but gold leaves, it is very consistent with the characteristics of Guizhi Xiangmiao. This gold leaf is more like the tweezers mentioned above. , In ancient times refers to the ornaments of hairpins. These objects also provide a vivid example for the explanation of Bu Yao in "Shi Ming". There are hanging beads on the top, and Bu Zhe Shake also provides a vivid example. Combined with the mention in the "Queen of Deng" chapter of "The Book of the Hou Han·Hou Ji", Empress Deng gave Feng nobleman Wang Chishou, one for each with a ring and one for each. The unit of stepping is based on the tool, which shows that the degree of formality is by no means comparable to the so-called single hairpin ornaments of later generations. "
Men in long robes are familiar with these things when they talk about them: "In fact, the general form of swaying is phoenix, butterfly, winged, or with tassels or pendants. When walking, the gold ornaments will move with the swing of the walk. Lifelike. Take the walk and shake, hence the name "step by step".
Bu Yao is mostly made of gold buckling into the shape of dragon and phoenix, and it is embellished with pearls and jade. In the six dynasties, the fancy styles become more and more complicated, or they become birds and beasts, flowers and branches, etc., glittering and shining, exquisite and elegant, mixed with hairpins, hairpins on the hair. It is mostly seen in the tombs of the Xianbei ethnic minority in my country. Step by step first went to aristocratic women, and later it also went to the people. So this one is very unique. During the Ming Dynasty, the land returned to the Han people. The queen chose silver as a step-and-switch only according to her mood. However, this silver still won't be dim for many years. How many crystals are on it? Years are still shining brightly. "(End of this chapter)
