Spoiler History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 746: Wow, waste paper
Not only Zhu Biao, in fact everyone was trying hard to look at the environment that was said to be in the future.

But firstly, the part exposed in the light curtain is quite limited, and secondly, the materials used in those functions are really completely incomprehensible.

Seeing that the young man in the future pulled the glowing cover in order to see the golden seal more clearly, and then slowly moved the picture forward so that the image of the golden seal in the Huagai Palace was almost as tall as a person, the Huagai Palace was filled with sounds of amazement and disbelief.

[Well, you can tell it’s a seal at a glance. Wait a minute and let UP find some ink… After all, the UP host has everything he needs at home.

OK, dip some ink and put it on the paper. Hey, you don't understand it very well? But UP has been cramming for a while, and I can understand it at a glance.

The four characters printed on it are "Wuping Hou Seal". Judging from the font and seal style, it can be basically determined that it is an imitation of the Han Dynasty's Marquis Seal.

If the time range is limited to the Han Dynasty, it is easy to find out who the owner of this seal is, because there is only one person recorded as being granted the title of Marquis of Wuping in ancient times, and that is our boss Cao.

According to records, after Boss Cao listened to his subordinates' advice and welcomed the unfortunate Emperor Xian to Xuchang, he was given the title of general and promoted to Marquis of Wuping. This seal is the seal of Marquis of Wuping.

〖I remember that official seals became more complete in the Western Han Dynasty, but most of them were still made of copper. Basically, only emperors, empresses, princes, generals and others were qualified to use gold and jade.

In other words, this Wupinghou Seal is theoretically made of gold? But isn't it too small?

Because this thing is different from modern official seals. It originally had the function of hanging. Our modern museum has the seal of Emperor Wen. You can clearly see that the seal button is a swimming dragon. There is a gap in the dragon's waist for you to wear it. If it really weighs half a pound, how can you hang it?

Yes, and according to "Han Guan Jiu Yi", the emperor has six seals, which means that the emperor has to hang six of them during the highest level of ceremonies. You can imagine that.

But Boss Cao probably wouldn't be too interested in this thing. After all, the Prime Minister's Seal in the 13th year of Jian'an, the Duke of Wei's Seal in the 17th year, the King of Wei's Seal in the 21st year, and the Emperor's Seal in the 22nd year, which one is not more attractive than this?

In the Xuchang government office, Cao Cao watched on the screen those people who, according to Zhang Fei, were all great kings in history discussing his life and death.

Then, in the blink of an eye, he saw the golden seal that Zhang Fei had just wanted appeared on the light curtain, and he couldn't help but feel a serious sense of unreality.

Those words are wrong on this point. This is a marquis seal no matter what, and it was given to him because he saved the emperor from danger. It has special meaning to him. Moreover, the seal itself is not heavy, so it is not troublesome to carry it with you.

but……

"The emperor gave him a posthumous title."

Cao Cao repeated this somewhat insignificant information he had obtained from him.

And when he looked at the words saying that he gradually became a duke and a king, and finally became an emperor, he didn't know what to say for a moment, and just subconsciously glanced at Xun Yu.

He could vaguely feel that he and Xun Yu seemed to be really becoming strangers.

The others also had different expressions. Dong Zhao shook his head and sighed, Xun You coughed silently, and Liu Ye was crying and laughing at the same time, looking a little exhausted.

However, the person in the light curtain obviously did not have such sentimental attitude.

[The seal is good, but it’s a little small. So let’s open the second package, which is also a small package.

Well, a wooden box, and you can hear a crisp sound when you shake it gently. Oh? There is also a piece of paper attached to the box.

"In the sixth year of the Zhenguan reign, after Liu Rengui of the Tang Dynasty had eliminated the treacherous officials in Wa and supported the government, he visited the Wa King's City and saw this Chinese item and bought it. Now I am giving it to you again. It was written by Li Shimin."

Huh? According to the setting, this is something that came from China and flowed into Japan? That's too much. Let me see... This should be a dragonfly eye.

It is generally believed that the dragonfly eye originated in Egypt more than 3,000 years ago. The indigenous people at that time believed that the "evil eye" had the power to resist evil, so they made it into amulets. It soon became popular among nomadic peoples and was eventually introduced to the Yellow River and Yangtze River basins during the Warring States Period.

We have talked about glass before, and discussed that the reason why transparent glass was not studied in ancient times was because of the unique jade culture. Colored glaze was a lower-level substitute for jade, and dragonfly eye is a typical colored glaze ornament.

Because it is not complicated to make and is not expensive, it became popular during the Qin and Han dynasties and spread to Southeast Asia through ancient China. So in theory, whether Liu Rengui of the Tang Dynasty was ordered by Erfeng or Li Zhi to attack Japan, it is indeed true that he could see dragonfly eyes.

In fact, from another perspective, small things like dragonfly eyes can be regarded as a witness to the earliest cultural exchanges.

However, the scenario of Tang Dynasty conquering Japan is not bad, but unfortunately, it is too difficult to implement and control. 】

In Ganlu Palace, Li Shimin smiled and didn't care.

He naturally knew that Japan was far away overseas. After all, this time Li Shiji and Liu Rengui and his party had personally measured the area.

But in terms of Yu Tang's strategy, the current plan is not so arrogant as to swallow up Japan. Both Liu Rengui and Du Ruhui, who had previously decided to accept the Japanese envoy, had a clear plan: drive the tiger to swallow the wolf.

The original plan was to drive out Japan and ally with Silla, to control Baekje and attack Goguryeo.

And after the Korean Peninsula is pacified and Bohai Sea becomes the inland sea of ​​the Tang Dynasty, the Liaodong area will naturally spread the legend that Japan has mountains of gold and silver.

However, after watching the light curtain today, Li Shimin made a slight revision to the plan:
After Liu Rengui returned to the Tang Dynasty, he was ordered to imitate Marco Polo and write Journey to the East. Wouldn't that be more credible than the legend?

[The dragonfly eyes are nice. I will string them together into a bracelet and wear them on my hands. It will be quite practical.

The next package... well, based on UP's experience, it's definitely calligraphy and painting, this package is perfect! 】

As the package was carefully opened, a paper roll was found inside. When it was slowly unfolded, beautiful handwriting could be seen on the paper. The younger generation exclaimed, "Oh!"

[It turned out to be Li Yu's "Chang Xiang Si". As expected, the signature was also Li Yu.

He also said that the death of Li Yu in history was a pity. Although this last ruler of Southern Tang lived in a narrow environment in his early years, the poems he wrote were graceful and distant.

But after the country was destroyed, his mentality changed drastically, and he was captured from Jiangnan to Bianliang, so his style of writing lyrics also changed dramatically.

There are such gloomy and profound famous lines as "I go up to the west tower alone, the moon is like a hook. The lonely wutong tree in the deep courtyard locks the autumn."

There is also the bold and desolate atmosphere of "homeland and country for forty years, three thousand miles of mountains and rivers".

Moreover, Li Yu’s strongest point is his poems, both in his early and later years, which have a strong sense of camera, especially the line at the beginning of "Wang Jiangnan" "How much hatred, in my dream last night", which is simply a typical movie expression shot.

If he had not passed away suddenly, Li Yu's literary achievements would definitely not only be the founder of the graceful and elegant school, but he might even be the master of both the graceful and bold schools. 】

In the Guangzheng Hall, Li Yu listened to the young man's straightforward praise and looked at the various words floating densely on the screen. Some said that they had memorized the lyrics he wrote, some lamented his fate, and of course more praised him for his good lyrics.

He never shed tears when his country was destroyed, but now Li Yu could not help but kneel on the ground, covering his face with his hands and crying like rain.

In just a few words, he seemed to see another self, another self who was roaring in dissatisfaction with words of entertainment.

Qian Chu waved to Zhao Kuangyin and others, then helped Li Yu up in a gentle voice, and went to a chair nearby to comfort him in a low voice.

[Then, the last one is naturally the most anticipated big box.

Well, this chair is really nice, simple but not simplistic. Judging from the workmanship style alone, it is a typical Ming-style carpentry. The boss is really strong, he can even do this!
Eh? There's a box on the chair. Let me see. The workmanship of this box is also very exquisite. It feels like a good thing. Then the things in this box must be...

Eh? A stack of paper? Let me see the words...

One string of Ming Dynasty's circulating treasure notes from the Secretariat?
Wow, isn’t this waste paper? 】
