Live Jianbao: Baoyou, you are very wrong

Chapter 796 It's Time to Visit the Konoe Family
"Fortunately, it's not as exaggerated as you think."

Ning Fan looked at the second portrait he brought back: "Do you recognize this thing?"

"Buddha statue?"

Tang Qisheng and Huang Haoying looked at it for a long time, and recognized that it was not an ordinary portrait, but a statue of Buddha. After looking at it, they were not sure, so they tentatively asked Ning Fan.

"Yes."

Ning Fan held the light and took a close-up. The light passed through the back of the portrait, casting a piece of Buddha light. The whole figure was vaguely visible, but one could feel the meaning of holiness.

"How is this going?"

"The special polishing process in ancient times used a light-transmitting mirror to polish this Buddha statue. When you look at it normally, it is an ordinary portrait, but as long as there is light falling at sunrise and sunset, it can show the Buddha's light. It is a good piece of Buddha. Treasure."

Ning Fan's eyes showed more information, and he could clearly see the condition of the item, but he didn't intend to explain it too clearly.

This Buddha statue was carved in the Tang Dynasty. The material itself is not of high value, but the craftsmanship is good, and the place where it is enshrined is also very special.

"where?"

"Great Mercy Temple."

"It turned out to be here?"

The reputation of Da Ci'en Temple is not very bright, but this is the temple that Xuanzang presided over after returning from his journey to the west, and it has a supreme status in the Buddhist circle.

"This Buddha statue is carved out of Xuanzang's face." Seeing that they were shocked, Ning Fan found Xuanzang's statue for them to compare.

"It's really the same!"

The ironclad evidence is like a mountain, and now a few people can only sigh with emotion. It really makes sense to emphasize Buddha in the Tang Dynasty. No one has made this kind of Buddha statue in other eras.

"However, there is already a statue of Xuanzang, so why make another one? Isn't it superfluous?"

Wang Duoyu was very curious, and the others were also stunned.

"That's right, it's not that there is already this existence, why is there still..."

Looking at them, Ning Fan knew that they were wrong, and shook his head: "The statue of Xuanzang was not created by the Tang Dynasty. Which era of emperor would allow the existence of a religious leader in the period under his rule?"

"It... seems not to be."

The four of them recalled the past dynasties of the Xia Kingdom, and it seemed that there really was no case where a common man became a religious leader.

"A religious leader will greatly affect the stability of the rule, so it is impossible for this kind of thing to happen in Xia Kingdom."

Ning Fan put away the statue: "When Xuanzang traveled westward, he brought back Mahayana Buddhism and Buddhist thoughts. His reputation is unparalleled. He proposed to build a new pagoda and underground palace to protect the relics and Buddhist scriptures."

"Journey to the West didn't mention this part? I used to watch it every summer vacation..."

Wang Duoyu didn't finish his sentence, seeing Ning Fan's unkind eyes, he shut up embarrassingly.

"I'm talking about what happened in reality."

Ning Fan continued the topic just now: "Li Shimin said at the time that this method was too laborious and costly for the monks, so he rejected this proposal, but the real situation is that it is not good for the royal family, and it will further increase the Buddhist dominance, so no agree."

"It's really an emperor's mind, it's really not simple." Several people nodded deeply, deeply jealous.

Ning Fan also understood what they were thinking.

If someone hadn't exposed this kind of thing, ordinary people would never understand it for the rest of their lives. It would be great if they could understand Li Shimin's behavior.

"I see! That's what it means!" Tang Qisheng was very excited.

Seeing that everyone looked at him, the old man blushed.

"That's one of the more niche questions in history."

"In the early years, the birth of emperors or saints was accompanied by visions, but later these visions gradually disappeared."

"When I discussed this before, I just said that this kind of thing is not in the elegant hall, and it is easy to forge, but if you think about it carefully, this is actually changing the most fundamental emperor's inheritance system."

"What system? It's not that serious, is it?" Wang Duoyu was a little helpless.

Tang Qisheng spoke slowly.

"It's very big. This determines whether the imperial power is a gift from heaven."

"Imperial power granted by heaven?" Wang Duoyu repeated these few words, his face changed, "I understand."

Ning Fan nodded.

It's good to understand this.

If Li Shimin held Buddhism in high regard, there might not be any problems in the short term, but in the long run, once Buddhism became the main religion in the country, whether Xia Guo's surname was Shi or Li would be a problem.

"This is also the reason why Taoism was revered later in the Tang Dynasty."

"I see."

No one thought that there was such a relationship here.

"But will it really happen?"

"do not know."

I don't know if this Ning Fan will really exist, but theoretically it is possible.

"Is it possible to say that about unwarranted things?"

"Then do you dare to bet?"

……

Wang Duoyu calmed down, shook his head after a long while: "Don't dare."

"That's it. Others bear the name of Tian Khan, as long as they lie down, they are the lord of the world at that time. Why should they give themselves an unstable factor? It is a reward to be able to give a jade Buddha statue. If it is replaced by the current Buddha statue , that is to kill."

"Makes sense."

Several people looked at Xuanzang's Jade Buddha statue deeply, their eyes fell, and seeing the kindness and solemnity on the face, they couldn't help clasping their palms together and performing a non-restrictive Buddhist ceremony.

"The things behind... No, is there one missing?"

The thing Ning Fan won for the third time was not displayed, it was just an ordinary wooden box, the size of a palm, it didn't look like it could hold anything special.

This kind of box is really not a good thing in general, but no one dares to underestimate the things in Ning Fan's hands.

Baobuqi is a national treasure inside.

"Can't you just open it and see?"

Ning Fan generously handed over the things, but Wang Duoyu couldn't believe it when he took it: "Can I really drive it? Could it be accidentally broken?"

"If you break it, you don't have to go back to Xia Kingdom."

"so serious?"

Wang Duoyu trembled, and the hand holding the box trembled.

Things that make him unable to go home, then this thing will definitely not be simple.

"National treasure handed down from generation to generation? Or will it never leave the country?" Wang Duoyu guessed.

"Just look at it and you'll find out."

Ning Fan didn't say much, and motioned for him to open it himself.

Wang Duoyu put down the box carefully, looked left and right, pulled a blanket and spread it on the pusher, opened it gently trembling, revealing a piece of tortoise shell inside.

"A? What's the matter..."

"wrong!"

Not only Wang Duoyu but also Tang Qisheng were looking at things.

The voice belonged to Tang Qisheng. They sat at different angles, and what he saw was different from Wang Duoyu's.

"This is the divination tortoise shell left by the Xia Dynasty!" Tang Qi called out.

"Clap!"

Wang Duoyu let go, closed the box lid again, and was stunned: "How could this belong to the Xia Dynasty?"

Ning Fan glanced at him: "Why not?"

"Xia Dynasty, isn't it not yet..." Wang Duoyu's voice became softer as he spoke, his eyes changed slightly, "Shimao ruins?"

"Ah."

Ning Fan nodded.

The ruins of the Xia Dynasty can appear, just a piece of tortoise shell, there is no problem at all.

[The tortoise shell for divination in the Xia Dynasty, there are traces of divination on the surface of the shell, traces of drilling holes on the top, and ink color left by rubbings inside, the result of tortoise shell divination is good luck (artificial). 】

This is the tortoise shell information that Ning Fan saw. As for how Tang Qisheng found out, this time is the key.

"I've seen a divination pattern like this before."

Tang Qisheng took the initiative to dig out the information.

"This is a silk painting found in a tomb of the Warring States Period. The other parts were seriously damaged. Only the divination pattern is clearly visible. According to analysis, it was rubbed on it. We searched the tomb and did not find this piece of tortoise shell."

"Analyzing the text after the fact found that it recorded important sacrificial activities during the Xia Dynasty, and the wizards drilled holes and carved lines on the tortoise shell before divination, so that the cracks on the tortoise after burning were formed according to their requirements."

Tang Qisheng looked at Ban Liangjin: "This old man has evidence to check, it's not just nonsense."

"I know." Ban Liangjin nodded: "These things are also recorded in our lineage, so it doesn't matter, they are all for survival."

"Isn't this... cheating?"

Huang Haoying and Wang Duoyu were dumbfounded.

"Otherwise? Do you really think that in ancient divination, there will be good or bad luck every time?" Ban Liangjin was a little surprised that they believed this.

"When divination first came out, it was true that ghosts and gods were worshiped, but later people discovered the problem. As long as the result they wanted appeared, it didn't matter what the real answer was. That's how the current situation came about."

"Then...forget it." Wang Duoyu stopped asking any more, since the left and right things are his own business, so it's meaningless to find out.

Ning Fan knew the reason and nodded slightly.

"It is indeed the tortoise shell used by the Xia Dynasty for divination, and the content of the divination is very important, which is why this tortoise shell needs to be rubbed and preserved."

Tang Qisheng did not speak, only Ning Fan's voice echoed in the car.

"This is counting the battle of national destiny, Jie's demise."

The crowd was silent.

It may be that the environment inside the car is already airtight, and it is too quiet after hearing this kind of topic. There is no movement in the car, only the low roar of the engine can be heard.

As the last king of the Xia Dynasty, Jie performed very poorly, and he can be called the first tyrant of the Xia Kingdom.

It can be said that his demise is not a loss at all, divination or something is probably just looking for comfort from heaven.

"But... why did this come from divination?" Wang Duoyu didn't understand.

"Bait."

Ning Fan thought for a while: "Although Jie is licentious and immoral, he still has absolute defense in the palace. The chaos of the princes and the influence of the people will not affect this part of the content."

"The reason for the calculation is to trick Jie into leading troops into battle. Once you go out, you won't be able to go back..."

A few people haven't recovered yet.

This result is really outrageous.

Who would have thought that the fortune-telling tortoise shell handed down from the Xia Dynasty would actually record these things. If Ning Fan hadn't analyzed it, they would have only regarded it as a way for Wu Zhu to make a fortune-telling and boost the team's confidence.

It turned out to be the bait for Wu Zhu to rebel and lure Jie to send troops.

"This means that you can still live if you do evil by God, but you can't live when you do evil by yourself?"

"It is."

Ning Fan put away his things and didn't say anything else.

He knew why this tortoise shell was passed down.

Most people in the world have several kinds of bad habits, and if you learn lessons from history but don't correct them, it is one of them.

Emperor Jie, Zhou and Yang are in the front, so there is no need to say more about the latter...

It seems that these emperors have taken the wrong medicine uniformly, thinking that they are all wise rulers who can make all the people return to their hearts.

Deliberately creating incidents such as burning books, burying Confucianism, and dominating Confucianism to strengthen the dominant position is fine, and even the pursuit of longevity has become consistent. It is no wonder that there is no place to die in the end.

This is the reminder that Wu Zhu left to the emperors of all dynasties, so it was preserved so well that even the rubbings were preserved until the Warring States period.

"But why did this thing end up here?" They looked at Ning Fan curiously.

"Prince Gong's Mansion."

Only three words, needless to say, they already understood.

This thing should have been stored in the imperial palace, and later it was drifted to Dongyang Kingdom along with the cultural relics of Prince Kung’s Mansion, and became someone’s collection again, and finally lost to Sha Luo, and now it is back in Ning Fan’s hands.

"Master Ning, this is a real national treasure."

Ning Fan put away his things and agreed with this statement.

The determination of the Xia Dynasty is not something that can completely conquer others with a single site, but also with corresponding cultural relics and cultural products.

Right now this is definitely enough, it depends on when Ning Fan plans to announce the existence of Xia Chao to the public.

"Don't worry, let them be proud for a while."

Ning Fan smiled.

During this period of time, he helped many places find treasures. Now it seems that they are all very proud, thinking that they have found something important for their own country, but they don't know that it is all left by Ning Fan.

"Let them be happy for a while, and then let them publicize the existence of the Xia Dynasty and let them eat flies."

Ning Fan planned these and looked back.

"In addition to these, there are some good things in the back, which can be sorted out when you go back, but you can let go of those you don't feel."

"What do you mean?" Wang Duoyu blurted out, and suddenly froze, "Master Ning, don't you want to say that they have dealt with all of that?"

"That's what it means."

Ning Fan casually touched a few items and unfolded them.

"They all have no breath. You can ask about the final whereabouts of these things. Send back all the unimportant ones, or replace them with other spirited cultural relics."

"Qiu Shu He Zi?" Wang Duoyu looked at Ning Fan and him, and suddenly realized.

Ning Fan nodded and didn't say much.

It's good to understand the meaning.

Wang Duoyu immediately sent a message to Qiu Shuhezi, explaining the situation here, only concealing the fact that all cultural relics have been processed.

Qiu Shuhezi immediately expressed his interest, and asked the female officer just now to directly connect with Wang Duoyu to confirm.

Wang Duoyu simply sold it at a good price.

"How about it, Master Ning? I exchanged the previous cultural relics three to one, all of which are older, and this batch of old Tang has seen it, and there is no problem."

"good."

Ning Fan was very satisfied.

Although there are a lot of cultural relics taken from the Oriental Kingdom Museum, they are only a small half compared to the inventory of the Eastern Royal Family and the aristocratic family.

Now that most of the stocks of the Yingsi family and the royal family have been taken back, Ning Fan can finally say that the work is more than halfway done.

By the way, the current whereabouts of these cultural relics were also found.

Ning Fan turned his gaze into the distance.

"The Jinwei family? Looks like it's time to pay a visit."
