I, who lived in seclusion for thousands of years, was exposed by yearning

Chapter 90
"It's broken, it's broken, and the old man restores it."

Peng Yuchang was holding the book, feeling like he was holding a rare treasure and dared not move.

But when he heard the old man's words, he was instantly relieved.

He loves the old man so much.

The old man is simply his savior.

"Just let it go."

Seeing the gratitude in the silly boy's eyes, Ye Qing waved his hand and said.

Just now in the study on the second floor, he listened attentively to the movement downstairs.

Hearing this, he guessed what the fat boy wanted to do.

It turned out that I wanted to see his collection of treasures.

But these two children helped him block the fake sword, so he didn't lose face.

As far as that goes, these two kids are quite lovable.

So it's just a book, whatever this silly boy can do.

Anyway, he knows everything by heart, at worst, he just adds the damaged ones.

"Old man, is this "Yongle Dadian"?"

Holding the book in his hands, Huang Lei looked at the old man with curiosity.

It is said that there are more than 1 volumes of this book, and some of them are exhibited in the museum. It is said that when the rest were dug up, some books were damaged and they were repaired by someone.

As a result, some people actually took away the books that needed to be repaired, and the whereabouts of the books have not been found until now. Some even appeared in museums or universities abroad, but no one knows how they got them abroad.

It is even rumored that Emperor Jiajing asked someone to hand-copy a copy of the "Yongle Dadian" because of mistakes and caused losses, and he himself buried most of the "Yongle Dadian" in the imperial tomb. It has been soaked and is useless, and there are not many intact books left.

But looking at the old man, there should be thousands of volumes at least.

Moreover, the appearance of the book is extremely likely to be the original copy of "Yongle Dadian". Where did the old man get it?
"I met a group of grave robbers a hundred years ago for these books, and they happened to meet me when they dug them up."

"Dug out by grave robbers?"

"Yes, I was entrusted by the Zhu family to take care of these books, but I was delayed because of some things. Knowing that these books are in the imperial mausoleum, I wanted to bring them out, but when I met those people, I stopped them. down."

Ye Qing said very calmly.

He also participated in the editing of the "Yongle Canon" back then. After the completion, the boy from the Zhu family and Dao Yan asked him to protect these books in the future.

So a hundred years ago, when he remembered what had happened, he wanted to go to the Imperial Tomb and bring out those books, but he ran into a group of people when he arrived.

After cutting it off, he stopped in to remove the rest, repaired some of the damaged ones, and put them at home.

What is placed in this room now is the one he replaced from the batch in the storage ring not long ago.

These nearly a thousand volumes are just the tip of the iceberg.

"These tomb robbers are really hateful. Fortunately, you intercepted them."

There was a little anger in everyone's eyes immediately.

Fortunately, the old man was entrusted by the Zhu family to protect those books.

Those tomb robbers are really abominable. They even dug up the imperial tomb for cultural relics.

Fortunately, the old man arrived in time, otherwise those cultural relics would have been resold by tomb robbers.

Huang Lei on the side was even more angry.

According to historical records, after the "Yongle Dadian" was copied by Emperor Jiajing, the original copy disappeared without a trace.

Unexpectedly, Jiajing was actually brought into the imperial tomb.

It was even more unexpected that some tomb robbers got the "Yongle Canon" before the old man. Fortunately, the old man went there in time, otherwise such a cultural relic could have been preserved in the hands of the tomb robbers.

But what he couldn't figure out was that the original copy of "Yongle Canon" was said to be exactly the same, so how could those grave robbers be so accurate in finding all the original copies.

Even archaeologists have to identify for a moment, how do they do it?
The audience in the live broadcast room were also shocked and puzzled.

"Fuck, this "Yongle Dadian" is equivalent to Du Niang at that time. I didn't expect that this Chinese encyclopedia is actually in the old man's house, and all of them are original copies."

"What's even more unexpected is that when the old man remembered the request from the Zhu family, he happened to meet the grave robber who dug Jiajing's tomb."

"Yes, fortunately, the old man arrived in time."

"However, the Zhu family also brought the "Yongle Dadian" into the grave."

"I don't understand a little bit. Didn't the old man say that he brought out all the tombs? Why did the archaeologists dig out some copies during the excavation?"

"Yeah, I'm curious too. What's even more puzzling is why those tomb robbers dug up all the originals?"

"It is said that the original and the copy are exactly the same, and even experts have to carefully identify them. How did the tomb robbers distinguish them?"

"How many volumes are there in total at the old man's place?"

While the audience kept asking questions in the live broadcast room, the question on Wei Neck once again set off a hot discussion of longing.

["Yongle Dadian" surprises and longs for it! 】

[The old man was entrusted by the Zhu family to dig the tomb of Emperor Jiajing in order to protect cultural relics! ! 】

As the topic became more and more popular, many archaeologists also appeared in the live broadcast room.

Although the copy of "Yongle Dadian" is the same as the original, the one with the highest value and the most documentary significance is the original.

This is a major discovery both in history and archaeology.

……

Everyone in Mushroom House on the Internet didn't know anything, but the questions they raised were also Huang Lei and He Jiong's questions.

Those tomb thieves who entered the imperial mausoleum would not be able to look through the books and compare them to find out the originals, right?

The original copy of this room is a few months younger even if it is compared at least.

How did they do it so precisely?
"If you two have any questions, just ask directly, don't look at each other and dare not open your mouth."

Seeing the two men's hesitant expressions, Ye Qing felt awkward.

If you have any questions, just say it directly. Wouldn’t it be better to be neat?

"Old man, it is said that the archaeological team dug up a copy of "Yongle". How could those tomb robbers distinguish so accurately? Did the descendants of the Zhu family also participate?"

"Copy? Differentiate?"

Ye Qing was a little confused when he heard the words.

He also participated in the editing of the "Yongle Canon", why haven't he heard about the copy?
The Taoist monk didn't tell him either.

"Don't you know there are copies?"

Seeing Ye Qing's ignorant look, Huang Lei was also slightly puzzled.

Didn't the old man know that there was a copy of "Yongle Dadian"?

"I don't know. When I met them, they were moving out. When I entered the imperial mausoleum, I found the location of the book. It must have been leaked by the descendants. I intercepted it and went in and found no copy."

Ye Qing shook his head and said:

"However, this descendant of the Zhu family is real. Let's not talk about it and copy it again. I'm afraid this child is not a fool and mentally retarded, but he even brought it into the mausoleum."

"Yongle Canon" took him a whole few years to compile and complete. The descendants of the Zhu family should keep it well, so why waste manpower and financial resources on such useless things.

Just this kid can still be the emperor?
I don't know if those who elected the emperor at that time were all bribed, so they were so blind that they couldn't see good or bad.

Not to mention moving the books into the mausoleum, how could it be possible to preserve books well in the environment of the mausoleum.

Simply retarded.

"Uh……"

Hearing Ye Qing criticize Jia Jing as a fool, Huang Lei choked for a moment before saying:
"Copying it again is actually not because he is stupid and mentally retarded. According to historical records, a fire broke out in the place where the books were kept at that time, so in order to prevent any damage to these books, he asked someone to copy them again, and the original copy was properly stored. Although it will be damaged after being brought into the mausoleum, and the tomb will be robbed by others, it is better than disappearing after a war.”

Although Emperor Jiajing did pretty well in the first 20 years after he came to power, but in the second half of his life he was obsessed with the practice of longevity, so he did nothing.

However, although what he did was said to be mentally retarded, it seems to be the most correct thing now, which is to re-transcribe the "Yongle Dadian" and bring it into the imperial tomb.

After all, the flames of war continued in the end, and those books would have completely disappeared from the world if the mausoleum hadn't protected them.

Otherwise, how would the world know that there is such a creation in the world.

Even the "Siku Quanshu" compiled in the Qing Dynasty has a few generations more history than the Ming Dynasty, but the encyclopedia compiled is not comparable to the "Yongle Dadian".

It can be seen that the "Yongle Dadian" is of great importance to history and literature.
