Play treasure master

Chapter 591

The business card that Xiao Ying gave him belonged to the "Yinqi" studio, and it was originally the contact information for the outside world.

After sending the two out of the shop and waving goodbye, the shop owner suddenly slapped his forehead and said to Yu Yao, "Brother, do you like porcelain? I suddenly remembered that a friend seems to have a good thing."

Yu Yao pondered, "We don't have much time today, if we go with you again, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time."

"So, how long are you going to hang around?"

"Before dinner."

"Then I'll call my friend, and if he says I can bring it before dinner, then I'll call Master Xiao again; if not, I won't bother you, just leave."

"Boss, you're doing things properly, okay." Yu Yao nodded, "But the ugly words are up front, tossing him back and forth, if we don't like it..."

"They are all sensible people, how can there be a business that can be done with every pen? It is impossible without running errands and negotiating."

"Okay, that's troublesome."

"No trouble, no trouble, walk slowly."

The two left the shop and continued to stroll forward.

There is a small long table in front of a shop, which is attached to the wall, and some small jade pieces are placed on it.

Among the antiques, Xiao Ying is relatively more interested in ancient jade; jade can communicate with spirits, and the various auras of ancient jade are also worth studying.

"Is this from Qin Dynasty?" Xiao Ying picked up a little jade figure.Xiao Ying didn't sense the aura of this little beauty, but roughly judged it from the appearance.

Because the face of this little beauty is so similar to the terracotta warriors and horses, and the bun is tilted to the right, as are many hairstyles of the terracotta warriors and horses.

"Look, there are quite a few at this stall!" Yu Yao smiled.Because there was a woman who looked like a proprietress sitting at the door, so Yu Yao couldn't speak too much.

"En. Let's go." Xiao Ying understood.That being said, they are all fakes.

After walking two steps forward, Xiao Ying suddenly said, "There is something strange."

"What? Don't you think this little beauty is old?" Yu Yao scratched his head, and said in his heart that I think it's something newly made in the past two years.

"No. I'm talking about the hair bun of the little jade man. Look, in the Warring States period before the Qin Dynasty, and in the Western Han Dynasty after the Qin Dynasty, the hair buns of the men in the Central Plains were all in the middle? How come the terracotta warriors and horses, and this little jade man? Are the buns tilted to the right?"

"Well, this is a popular hair bun from the late Qin Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty. It's just popular, so it's not like this for everyone." Yu Yao thought for a while, "This matter, maybe it has something to do with Qin Shihuang's grandma?"

"Mi Yue?" Xiao Ying was taken aback.

"It should be said to be the prototype of Miyue. The wife of King Qin Huiwen, the old mother of King Qin Zhaoxiang, and the grandmother of Qin Shihuang Yingzheng."

"Now that you said it, I'm a little interested."

Yu Yao lowered his head and lit a cigarette, "This is all my speculation, it may not be accurate..."

The ancients adhered to the principle of "the body, hair and skin, and the parents". Basically, they did not cut their hair all their lives. Therefore, in the Qing Dynasty, Han people had to shave most of their hair and change it to a Manchu hairstyle. Keep your head" confrontation.

Since the hair is long, it will be disheveled without a bun.The style of men's hair buns is generally centered; the hair buns of the people of Qin were also centered most of the time during the Warring States period; countries in the Central Plains were basically centered.

However, "the Chinese knot the bun in the middle, and the natives knot the bun on the right."

That is to say, this bun style tilted to the right is the style of "natives".

The so-called "natives" in the Warring States period generally refer to people outside the Central Plains.For example, the southwestern area also included part of Chu State at that time.

"Yes, Mi Yue is from Chu State." Xiao Ying nodded.

"I'm a student of archeology, so I remember very clearly that there was once a time when the tomb of a Chu person named Mi was excavated, and pottery figurines with crooked buns were also found." Yu Yao said, "Chu is adjacent to the southwest, and many people are actually from the southwest. descendants of some peoples."

The surname Mi is the common surname of Chu people; it may also be a descendant of a certain ethnic group in the southwest, so this hairstyle has continued.The Mi family should have played a very important role in the promotion of this crooked bun hairstyle.

The so-called Miyue was not only the queen of King Qin Huiwen, but also held power for a long time as Queen Mother Qin Xuan after the death of King Qin Huiwen.

In the excavation of the ruins of Afang Palace, an inscription in the shape of "Mi" and related tiles were also found.

The Afang Palace was built by King Qin Huiwen, but he died before it was completed; the subsequent construction was probably presided over by Queen Mother Qin Xuan.

Therefore, from the late Qin Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty, the popular hairstyle with crooked buns should have something to do with the Queen Mother Qin Xuan.At the very least, it should be the foundation she laid down from Chu State to Qin State.

"You can!" Xiao Ying couldn't help smiling after hearing this.

"To pass the time idle, chat for conversation."

The two walked around while talking, but didn't look at anything anymore. Seeing that they had reached the end of the corridor on the second floor, there was a small front door with the name "Great Wind Hall", which was quite a contrast.

"Go in and have a look." Yu Yao said with a smile.

When I entered the store, I saw that the inside was very messy. A young man with a chicken nest head was sitting on a chair behind the counter, playing games with his mobile phone, and kept mumbling.Hearing his murmurs, he should be playing King Pesticide.

"Is the boss there?" Yu Yao stepped forward and asked.

"It's me, you two can watch as you please!" The young man rolled his eyelids, glanced at the two of them, and then continued to play the game.

After Yu Yao saw it, he didn't say any more, and started looking in the messy store.

In front of a shelf, Yu Yao was looking at two pieces of porcelain, when suddenly a big yellow cat jumped down from a pile of old books on top of the shelf!
Yu Yao hurriedly dodged, but he missed it. After the big yellow cat landed, it crawled into an old bamboo basket at Yu Yao's feet and lay down.

"I said boss, you have a cat in this antique shop, you are not afraid that he will destroy things?" Yu Yao couldn't help shouting to the boy.

"It's okay, Fa Cai is very sensible. Just look at yours and don't bother with it."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yao couldn't help but take another look at the yellow cat named Fa Cai.At this time, Fa Cai was lying on his back, as if he was going to sleep, but Yu Yao discovered that there was actually a white jade pendant hanging on a red string around the cat's neck. Judging from the light perception, it seemed to be a jade piece from the Western Han Dynasty .

It is not miraculous that a jade article can be roughly dated according to the light perception of the jade after just a few glances.

The so-called difficult people will not, and those who meet will not be difficult.

Light perception is an important factor in identifying ancient jade.For example, the light perception of Warring States jade and Western Han jade is very similar, both are highlights, but there are still differences.The glass highlights of Warring States jades are a bit hard and more reflective; in the Western Han Dynasty, the glass highlights were somewhat restrained, giving a feeling of ice highlights.

Yu Yao couldn't help squatting down, and took a closer look at the jade pendant.
