Chapter 174 Song Qinghua

Mei Chao walked and watched in the room, feeling very emotional: "Although I said so, there are too many... What is the specific function of imitating so many ancient porcelains? Is it going to be sold?"

"These are just practice works, used to understand ancient skills, and when you graduate from the teacher, you can receive high-priced private orders." Qi He sighed slightly, "It's a pity, I didn't expect her to encounter accidents."

He picked up a small porcelain cup and slowly rubbed it in the palm of his hand, with a sad expression on his face.

Qu Mingcong observed his expression, and asked, "Master Qi, do you think you know Ding Na very well? It may be presumptuous of me to ask this, but just now I heard you categorically say that Ding Na cannot commit suicide, so I am a little concerned... Can you Can't give a more specific reason why suicide is impossible?"

Qi He looked at Qu Mingcong with a strange look, "Actually, there is no special reason... but if a person has the idea of ​​suicide, he should behave in a certain way, right? She has been concentrating on studying Yuan Qinghua during that time. A few pieces of antique porcelain have just made progress, and it is impossible to have the idea of ​​committing suicide anyway.”

Qu Mingcong frowned, "...round blue and white flowers?"

"Well, the Yuan Dynasty was the mature stage of the development of blue and white porcelain. Both the body color and the glaze color were close to perfection. It was Ding Na's favorite blue and white porcelain. By the way..." Qi He looked around and said, "She also collected a lot of Yuan Blue and white porcelain pieces, I remember putting them in a box..."

"Is it this box?" Mei Chao asked, pointing at a sandalwood square box.

Qi He came over and opened the lid of the box, and there were indeed a pile of broken tiles inside, some of which were carefully wrapped with oil paper, probably relatively good quality tiles.

Qi He looked at it, nodded and said: "Yes, these are the old porcelain pieces collected by Ding Na. We study the body color, glaze color and pattern of these porcelain pieces to make antique porcelain. That child Ding Na told me before , Isn’t it amazing that a complete set of daily utensils, sacrificial utensils, and tomb towns belonging to that era can be made with just some broken fragments?… She is immersed in this, so I don’t think she will suddenly commit suicide .”

Mei Chao couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words, "Speaking of which, the possibility of accidental death is more likely..."

Although Qu Mingcong didn't know much about porcelain, he felt a little embarrassed after hearing Qi He's words. At this time, Xiao Qiao's voice came from the earphone: "Ask him, Ding Na likes the Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain, which was broken the night she committed suicide. A piece of Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain, this is what Ding Zhaolin said personally."

Qu Mingcong was slightly taken aback, and then he remembered that Ding Zhaolin had indeed said so. At that time, he had specifically emphasized that the broken piece of porcelain was an imitation, and the real one was safe and sound in the warehouse.

Dina has many replicas in her museum studio, and it seems unsurprising that one should be broken.

but……

Qu Mingcong looked around and asked Qi He, "Are there blue and white porcelains from the Song Dynasty here?"

"Song Dynasty?" Qi He frowned slightly, and looked at Qu Mingcong suspiciously, "There is no Song Qinghua here, why do you ask?"

"The night Ding Na fell to her death, she broke a piece of Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain." Qu Mingcong replied.

Qi He stood there without moving, only looked up slightly and looked around, and said in a firm tone: "There are no Song Dynasty blue and white flowers here."

After a pause for a few seconds, he whispered to himself again: "But...maybe it was a sudden whim on her mind, and she might have scoured a few pieces of Song blue and white flowers in the museum's warehouse."

Xiao Qiao said on the phone: "Ask him if he can help identify the blue and white porcelain in Ding Na's studio."

"Master Qi, is there a big difference between Song Qinghua and Yuan Qinghua? Is it possible that Mr. Ding made a mistake?" Qu Mingcong asked.

"No, the boss is an expert." Qi He shook his head, "The body color of blue and white porcelain in Song Dynasty is off-white, and the glaze surface color is generally gray blue and gray black. The Yuan Dynasty was the mature period of blue and white porcelain development. The whiteness has been improved, the glaze color is bluish, and it has a strong glass texture, which is also the sense of elegance and tranquility that people often say, so the difference is quite obvious.”

Qu Mingcong: "..."

He felt that the so-called obvious difference was probably obvious in the eyes of an expert like Qi He. Anyway, no matter how he looked at it, they were all ordinary porcelain bottles, porcelain pots, and porcelain bowls.

Qu Mingcong coughed twice, and said, "Master Qi, are you free these few days? Can you go to the museum and see if there are other blue and white flowers from the Song Dynasty in the studio there?"

Qi He frowned, "Is there Song Qinghua, is this related to Ding Na's death?"

"It's not certain yet, but the broken blue-and-white porcelain is indeed a suspicious point," Qu Mingcong replied thoughtfully, "If it is true as you said, Ding Na was not interested in Song Dynasty blue-and-white porcelain, why did the broken piece appear on the night of her accident? It’s not from the Yuan Dynasty, it’s not from the Tang Dynasty, but it’s a piece of blue and white from the Song Dynasty?”

He tried to arouse Qi He's desire to explore, and it could be seen that Qi He regretted Ding Na's death.

Qi He was silent for a while, and finally shook his head, "Sorry, I have a lot of things to do at hand, and I don't think it is necessary to continue the investigation of Ding Na's death. If you need to know about the dynasties of antique porcelain, you can contact the museum. The same goes for the staff, and Wang Yali, who is in charge of warehouse management, is an expert in this area."

After his reminder, Qu Mingcong remembered that he had indeed seen a woman surnamed Wang in the museum before, and her attitude was not very good.

It seems that everyone except Ding Zhaolin himself is not in favor of continuing to investigate Ding Na's death.

"I still have something to do, I'm going down first, you take your time." Qi He put the key on the table, turned and walked out the door, reminding, "Remember to lock the door when you leave, just leave the key in the accounting room."

Qu Mingcong and Mei Chao watched each other leave, they could only look at each other helplessly.

Looking at the crowded antique porcelain around me, I feel even more helpless. Without the help of professionals, they can't understand this pile of bottles and cans, and they have no clue.

"How about we go chat with the big sister in the accounting room next door?" Mei Chao came up with an idea, "I've come here, ask a few more people, maybe there will be new discoveries."

Qu Mingcong was not very interested. He glanced at the porcelain in the room and said, "Go, I want to take some pictures."

"Well, take a few more photos and show them to the staff when you get back." Mei Chao waved his hand and went to the accounting room.

When Qu Mingcong was left alone in the room, he sighed and muttered to himself: "No way, this man named Qi He is not cooperative. If you want to know if there are Song Dynasty blue and white flowers in the studio of the museum, you can only find another one." People...why do you suddenly care about this issue?"

"Of course we have to be concerned, this is the only clue left at the murder scene~" Xiao Qiao spoke decisively, "and the time sequence is very clear, the blue and white porcelain was dropped first, and then Ding Na fell from upstairs. If she committed suicide, as Sense of ceremony, shouldn’t it be my favorite blue and white of the Yuan Dynasty? Why is it the blue and white of the Song Dynasty? She was busy so late in the studio? There is a high probability that it is a piece of Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain, right? After all, Qi He said that she likes Yuan blue and white porcelain the most, but what broke was a piece of Song blue and white porcelain..."

She spoke more and more slowly, her tone was sluggish, and finally she stopped.

Qu Mingcong was listening, and waited for a while, wanting to ask her what conclusion she had, when she suddenly yelled into the earphone!

"what!"

Qu Mingcong was taken aback, "Why..."

"There was someone! There was a second person!" She said suddenly.
