As before, when Lin Xi walked into jinbaozhai, the store's staff immediately came to receive him. Lin Xi dismissed him and looked around.

because the store was different from the outside, the players came in, so it was relatively cold.

Lin Xi looked down and saw that there was no object on his eyes. He was about to ask Tong Yan to leave, but he was suddenly attracted by an unimportant ancient book in the corner. Suddenly, his eyes were bright and his eyes were shining.

"Lin Xi, why are you so cold? Hurry up! Why are you so cold? Hurry up!"

See Linxi stop, Tongyan some impatient, pushed him from behind, urged him to leave.

Lin Xi did not move, whispered: "don't worry, I really want to meet Bao ····"

the ancient book that Lin Xi saw was very different from ordinary ancient books. Its format was extremely large, about half a meter high and about 30 cm wide. Its format was huge, invisible, with imperial prestige and boldness. It was standing behind the bookcase, just like a pile of unimportant miscellaneous, random piles Put it there.

At the moment of seeing the ancient book, Lin Xi subconsciously saw something extraordinary. The vision appeared in his eyes, and the heavenly eye showed its power. He judged that the ancient book, about 40 pages in length, was made of snow-white, thick bark paper with faint scholarly flavor, which was very exquisite and beautiful.

But I don't know what the reason is. Maybe after the fire, the ancient book's coat has disappeared, and in the corner, there are obvious traces of fire, resulting in incomplete books.

This must be the reason why it is ignored.

Maybe some people want to ask, what is a book jacket?

The so-called book jacket is the cover of a book, because it is like a person wearing clothes, wrapped outside the book, it has the name of "book jacket", which is vivid and vivid.

At that time, Lin Xi's mind, the image of ancient books has faded, outlined a group of spiritual, and then spiritual flow, turned into countless scenes, like a horse watching flowers, in his mind.

The first thing you can see is a royal palace. This ancient book is placed in the palace. Next to it, there are many ancient books with the same size and shape, which are neatly placed on the bookshelves, just like a small library and a magnificent masterpiece.

As soon as the picture turns, the temple is on fire. Countless magnificent works are swallowed up into ashes by the flames. At the end of the flames, the temple collapses, and no other ancient books survive.

Only this book in front of me survived because when the temple collapsed, it was smashed by the beam and put out the fire.

Later, a little eunuch found the ancient book from the broken walls and tiles, and secretly brought it back to his home as his family heirloom, which enabled the ancient book to be passed on by fluke.

Later, in endless time, the ancient book manager went through numerous ups and downs, and finally fell into the hands of the wonton peddler. The peddler didn't know the gold inlaid jade. He wanted to burn the ancient book as firewood, but he happened to meet a noble man. He thought it was a terrible thing. He bought it in time, saved it, and came back to study it for a long time, but he didn't know what to think. He thought it was a lost sight Therefore, it is no longer concerned.

Among the numerous pictures, Lin Xi only remembers one thing, which is irrelevant. That is, in the palace, the same name "Yongle Dadian" is written in countless ancient books.

This incomplete ancient book is actually Yongle grand ceremony!

People who know about history all know that Zhu Di is the fourth son of Zhu Yuanzhang. After his nephew, Jianwen emperor, who was elected by Zhu Yuanzhang himself, was driven out of power and his whereabouts were unknown, so he ascended the throne. However, because he did not get the right seat, he was often terrified and determined to make great achievements to prove that he could stand the throne.

So in the summer of 1403, Zhu Di, the founder of Ming Dynasty, ascended the throne of Jinling. The next year, he issued an imperial edict to Xie Jin, a scholar in the Imperial Academy.

This edict, in vernacular, is as follows:

since ancient times, all the things in the world have been scattered in various books. These books have many varieties and long characters, so it is not easy to find the content for reference. Therefore, I want to put the things in various books together by classification, and compile them in one book by sorting the words under the rhyme In this way, it's like searching for things. It's very convenient According to what I mean, all the classics, histories, books of Confucius and other schools, and even the comments on astronomy, geography, yin and Yang, medicine, divination, monks and Taoism, and skills, since there are books, will be included in this book. Don't be afraid of the vast content.

In October of the fifth year of Yongle, more than 2000 people, after more than three years of hard work, formally finalized the Yongle grand ceremony. Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was very satisfied with the part and wrote the preface himself. Since then, this super book has been born in the world.

After the Yongle canon was finalized, Zhu Di ordered people to rewrite and transcribe it. It took one year to complete it. The total volume of the book was 22937. After binding, it was 11095, with a total number of 370 million words. At that time, there were two books, one was the original, and the other was called the original by later generations, that is, the version after transcribing and binding.

Since its successful compilation, the original manuscript of Yongle Dadian has been kept in Wenyuan Pavilion of Jinling, which was destroyed by the fire. After Zhu Di moved his capital to Beijing, the original manuscript has been kept in Wenlou of the Forbidden City.Not only did Zhu Di attach great importance to this precious historical book, which became his historical achievement and became the "Emperor Yongle", but other emperors tomorrow also attach great importance to it, such as emperor Jiajing, who loved Yongle Da Dian very much and often read it on his desk.

When he learned that Wenyuan pavilion was on fire and the manuscript was completely destroyed by the fire, Emperor Jiajing was particularly worried that "he ordered you to go out of Wenlou and preached three or four times in the night, so he could not destroy it". Therefore, under the promotion of emperor Jiajing, Yongle Dadian was preserved separately, and after the fire, another Yongle Dadian was copied.

In the 41st year of Jiajing reign, the work of "copying" Yongle Dadian began. It was not until the year after emperor Jiajing died that the copying was completed. Most of the fragments that can be seen today are these copies.

What's more, after the copy was copied, the original disappeared. Even after countless wars and man-made destruction, even the copy of Yongle Dadian was almost lost, leaving only a few copies lost all over the world.

Some people may want to ask, after repeated disasters, are copies of "Yongle ceremony", so where is the original?

According to historians, there may be the following reasons.

First, it is speculated that after compiling Yongle Dadian, there were only Xiaozong and Shizong in the Ming Dynasty. These two emperors, who liked reading, often read Yongle Dadian. For example, Xiaozong copied the secret prescriptions of Yongle Dadian to Taihu hospital for study, while Shizong liked it even more. Yongle Dadian was always on his desk, and he often read them according to rhymes.

Moreover, in Ming Dynasty, there was a peculiar burial custom that the books loved by the dead were buried with them after death.

It is obvious that the original of Yongle Dadian can be buried with emperor Shizong in Yongling. The scale of Yongling seen today is much larger than other mausoleums of Ming Dynasty. According to the ritual system, the original can be buried with emperor Shizong.

After emperor Jiajing of emperor Shizong was buried, Emperor Longqing praised the compilation of Confucian officials, praised more than ten Confucian officials such as Xu Jie for their "tongzhijing banquet", and praised them again on the pretext of "re recording Yongle Dadian". However, he did not mention the original collection of Yongle Dadian. Therefore, it is more likely that the original of this great work will be buried with the public or private bibliography and unofficial history .

However, whether the idea of funerary remains true, as conjectured, depends on archaeological excavation.

The second is that it was burned. As for the time when it was burned, there are two opinions.

At the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Qing Dynasty, some people inside and outside the imperial palace were suspicious. For example, Liu Ruoyu, a eunuch in the late Ming Dynasty, put forward that "where are the two old Yongle Dadian now?" and Gu Yanwu, a famous scholar in the late Ming Dynasty, wrote in rizhilu Li said that the original of Yongle Dadian was "completely lost.".

Secondly, the original Yongle Dadian was changed to Qianqing palace in the early Qing Dynasty, and there was a fire in Qianqing palace in the second year of Jiaqing.

However, it is doubtful whether the original of Yongle Dadian existed in Qianlong's reign. Therefore, the original of Yongle Dadian was not included in Tianlu Linlang bibliography compiled by Qianlong at the beginning of the reign of Emperor Qianlong. Moreover, when it was compiled, all the rare books in the palace were concentrated in Zhaoren hall beside Qianqing palace. Emperor Qianlong once wrote poems to express his appreciation of the original of Yongle Dadian But: "Dadian still looks at the biography of Yongle, and it's hard to collect it. Jane and the interpretation of the road is not refined, read the vicissitudes of life for a long time

It can be seen that Emperor Qianlong had never seen Yongle grand ceremony.

The third is the theory of being hidden in a sandwich wall.

Huangshicheng in Ming Dynasty is a royal archives, which is specially used to store Shilu, shengxun and yudie. The re recorded version is hidden in huangshicheng. Therefore, some people think that the original of Yongle Dadian is hidden in the wall of huangshicheng in case of accident.

The brick and stone structure of huangshicheng is very strong against water and fire. The wall structure of huangshicheng hall is very different from other buildings. The thickness of the East and west walls is 35 meters, and the thickness of the north and south walls is 6 meters. It seems very possible to hide the original of Yongle Dadian in the sandwich wall.
