Chapter 241 There is heaven and earth in it
"What can prove the integrity of this painting is the drawing layout code left by the author when he drew the Qingming Shanghe map, and named it the "two equal division method" password, the "six equal division method" password and the "twelve equal division method" "password.

While talking, Mr. Ouyang showed Wu Tianyuan with his fingers, and analyzed: The so-called bisecting code is to divide the painting evenly from the middle. At this time, you can see that this evens line just falls on the arch bridge in the center of Qingming Shanghe Tu The top, and the arch bridge part is the climax of the scene depicted in this painting. "

"The code of six equal divisions is to divide "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" into six sections. The first section is the suburban scenery, the middle section is the scenery along the Bian River and the busy Bianhe wharf, and the latter section is the lively urban street scene."

"There is a long section of the Bianhe River at the back of the first section of "Scenery of the Suburbs" and a grain unloading wharf appears, and at the end of the middle section of "Scenery of the Bianhe River" there are blocks. This is a method of introducing the Qingming Riverside Map in sections Just to introduce this great scroll to readers more intuitively?"

"Now let's look at this picture scroll in three sections. First of all, we can see that the middle part of the first section is a dry willow forest. The forest runs through up and down. Except for a little space at the lower end, it is almost airtight. The rural scenery in the first section and the upcoming The emerging market is separated from the scenery of the Bian River, and this kind of curtain-wall-like forest has never appeared in the subsequent paintings.”

"The middle part of the middle part is the climax arch bridge of the whole picture, and the middle part of the back part happens to be the tall city gate. At this time, the viewer can see the forest in the middle part of the first part, the arch bridge in the middle part of the middle part and the city gate in the middle part of the last part are all pictures. It is the tallest and most spectacular scene. If you divide the three sections into six sections, you can see that three equal lines pass through the center of the three sections."

"What is even more surprising is that the dividing line just falls on the forest, the middle of the arch bridge and the center of the city gate. This is clearly Zhang Zeduan's intentional layout when he drew the Qingming Riverside Picture, which also proves that this painting has been handed down to this day. Still strong evidence for a complete scroll."

Mr. Ouyang said excitedly: "We have also studied it many times internally. We think that since the painter deliberately arranged the layout of the picture when he drew the Qingming Riverside Picture, there will be more layout codes hidden in it, so in the "six equal division method" On the basis of the "twelve equal division method" research, the result found a layout code that shocked the author even more."

"Draw a line in the middle of the six-section map, and divide the Qingming Riverside Picture into twelve sections on average. Immediately, you can see that the middle line of the first section of the six-section map passes through the middle of a thatched cottage in the countryside. In the sixth section The Bianhe River near the median line of the second section of the picture begins to appear in the picture. And so on, all the same!"

Wu Tianyuan nodded in agreement. The Qingming Riverside Picture is a giant long scroll with a length of 5.28 meters. When drawing such a long scroll, the painter will definitely arrange the picture in advance, so as to ensure that the picture is not chaotic and has a reasonable structure.

Moreover, it belongs to the long scroll of boundary painting, and boundary rulers are used when painting, so the requirements for the layout and proportion structure of the picture are higher.Now the screen layout code of "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival" fully proves that the painting of the Riverside during the Qingming Festival is complete, and has not been incomplete during the hundreds of years of circulation.Because this painting was incomplete in the process of spreading, the layout of the painter will definitely be messed up.Now that the layout is in order, it just proves that it is intact.

Mr. Ouyang came to the end and concluded: "In addition, the beginning and end of the painting are also a good proof that it is not incomplete. There is a one-centimeter-long blank at the beginning of the painting of Shanghe during the Qingming Festival. Except for a little depiction of the ground, there is no scene in the blank space. This phenomenon has never appeared in the subsequent scrolls, and such blank spaces indicate the logical beginning of the scroll.”

"And at the end, the roots of the weeping willows in the north of the road have been connected to the tops of the branches in the south of the road, completely blocking the road going west, which has never been seen in the Qingming Riverside Picture. The painter’s intention was to mark the end of the scroll. There are many willows painted in the painting, but they are all dry willows, and there is only one weeping willow, which further shows the painter’s intention to end the scroll.”

Wu Tianyuan opened his eyes, he has always had supernatural powers, and the cultural relics will tell all the inside stories by themselves.After listening to the analysis of professionals today, I am in awe. They rely on years of careful research and sorting out various data to get a more accurate conclusion. This attitude is worth learning and experiencing.

"It is said that in the Xiangguo Temple in Tokyo in the Northern Song Dynasty, there lived some folk painters who made a living by painting for the temple. Among them was a young painter who said that he could bring the prosperity and prosperity of the capital Tokyo to his paintings. This young man was from Shandong. Zhang Zeduan of Zhucheng."

"He lived in the Xiangji Kitchen of Xiangguo Temple and devoted himself to painting. One day Song Huizong Zhao Ji, under the protection of the royal guards, came to Xiangguo Temple with great momentum to offer incense. Song Huizong Zhao Ji heard that there lived a talented young man in Xiangguo Temple. As a painter, he ordered Prime Minister Cai Jing to understand the situation. Song Huizong Zhao Ji and Prime Minister Cai Jing not only like painting, but also are masters of painting. Song Huizong ordered Cai Jing to call Zhang Zeduan into the Imperial Academy of Painting, and personally set the title for Zhang Zeduan to paint the prosperous scenery of Tokyo in the Northern Song Dynasty .”

"Zhang Zeduan was summoned to the Hanlin Academy of Painting in the palace, but he requested that he could not paint in the palace. He asked to paint in a quiet farmhouse. Song Huizong agreed to Zhang Zeduan's request and ordered Cai Jing to be Zhang Zeduan's painting in the capital of Tokyo in the Northern Song Dynasty. In the suburbs, I found a quiet farmhouse, and since then Zhang Zeduan devoted himself to painting under the stars and the moon."

"After the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Huizong and his son Song Qinzong Zhao Huan were captured by the Jin people to the north. The Qingming Shanghe Tu and 11 works of art hidden in the Northern Song Dynasty's inner mansion were also looted by the Jin soldiers. The No.[-] son of Song Huizong Zhao Ji Song Gaozong Zhao Gou Hangzhou proclaimed himself emperor."

"In order to let Song Gaozong Zhao Gou not forget the hatred of the country and the family, and resolutely resist gold, he thanked guests behind closed doors, worked hard, and drew a long scroll of Qingming Riverside Picture, dedicated to Song Gaozong Zhao Gou. Song Gaozong Zhao Gou is different from his father Song Huizong Zhao Ji, He wasn't interested in the painting at all and sent it back."

"He unfolded the long scroll, feeling restless. In a fit of anger, he burned the long scroll of Qingming Shanghe Picture that he had painstakingly drawn. Fortunately, his family snatched half of it in time. Under the heavy blow, Zhang Zeduan died of depression soon. Zhang Zeduan presented the story of Qingming Shanghe Picture twice Whether it is true cannot be verified, but the folks have begun to spread this secret."

Old Man Ouyang said in a low voice: "It is said among the people that the Qingming Riverside Map is a treasure map! Back then, Song Huizong secretly ordered Zhang Zeduan to paint this secret into the painting, which hides the secret about the treasures of the Northern Song Dynasty!"

"Really?" Wu Tianyuan's eyes lit up, he liked hearing about treasures the most, and asked curiously.

"It has been recorded in history that the economic strength of the Northern Song Dynasty was quite strong. It was a typical example of the country being poor and the people rich. All of them are rare treasures.”

"I love Zhang Wenyou, the new pictures are fascinating. The ruler and the stick should be talented, and the pens should be drawn by the common people. It starts with young fleas, and the white heads are new when they grow up. Reading this from ancient to modern, it's like being in Shanghechun."

Old Man Ouyang said with a smile: "The evidence of folklore is in this poem. Since ancient times, the talented emperor has played a word game with us, picking out one word from each sentence in the poem in an irregular way, and finally can Composition, full of text and pictures, and the eight characters of Furukawa! If you pick out two more characters from the last two sentences, it is——read it, it means that Song Huizong already knew about this matter, and he was very happy. This is not only It is a precious painting, and it also hides an unknown secret."

"What do you mean when all the text is exhausted and everything is completed?"

"It means that the figure and size are all in the painting, and the success lies in the Guhe. The Guhe is the ancient Bianhe that has long since disappeared. The secret of the legendary treasure should have a deep relationship with the Bianhe."
