In order to successfully use the ghost hand, the tall and thin man deliberately laid a soft cushion on the ground. Although it didn't play an effective role in protecting the baby, fortunately, it avoided the damage of the baby, which was self defeating.

But what is that treasure?

I believe some people have guessed that the world-famous Chenghua ducai chicken bowl cup, if only in terms of market value, is even more valuable than the genuine Xuande stove.

Of course, this phenomenon is also caused by the history of Xuande furnace. If it has not become a recognized case in the antiques industry, I believe Xuande furnace and Chenghua doucai chicken bowl will be able to become the best of their time. In fact, they are not as good as each other in terms of their production technology and historical background.

The reason why Chenghua doucai Jigang cup is so famous in the world is that its creator, Zhu Jianshen, the emperor of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty, has to be mentioned.

Zhu Jianshen was the eighth emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the eldest son of Zhu Qizhen, Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty. Although he grew up in the royal family and was listed as the successor to the throne, his life was full of drama. Even when he got the throne, it was twists and turns, which can be called a good thing.

Zhu Jianshen's father, Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, was also a young emperor. His father, Emperor Xuande, left him a good official and a good general. He also had the foundation of benevolent rule. So he could have been a Taiping emperor. Even if he didn't have a brilliant place, he would never have a big loss. He could live a happy life.

However, with the death of a good minister and a good general, Zhu Qizhen began to favor the eunuch Wang Zhen, who made the eunuch monopolize the power. At the instigation of Wang Zhen, Zhu Qizhen led to the imperial expedition, which shocked the history and changed the national movement of Ming Dynasty.

Even Zhu Qizhen himself was captured by the enemy Wara and became a prisoner. He was called "Beishou" by historians. You should know that the same experience of Beishou was the famous shame of Jingkang in the history of Northern Song Dynasty. Huizong and qinzong of Song Dynasty suffered humiliation and died in a foreign land. He

when everyone thought that Zhu Qizhen would be the same as song Huizong and song songqinzong, history made a big joke, which once again surprised everyone, because Zhu Qizhen, with his strong personality charm, defeated the enemy and escorted him back to the Ming Dynasty in such a covetous environment where he lost his power at any time.

There is a saying that "the country can not be without a monarch for a day". During the period when Zhu Qizhen was captured, in order to appease the people, the ministers headed by Yu Qian supported Zhu Qiyu, Zhu Qiyu's younger brother, to ascend the throne. Originally, Zhu Qiyu really wanted to be a prince of peace, but he did not want to become emperor.

Zhu Qiyu, who became the emperor, soon lost his desire for power. Even when Zhu Qizhen came back later, he was afraid that Zhu Qizhen would take away his power, so he put Zhu Qizhen under house arrest and called him "the supreme emperor".

Since Lao Tzu became emperor, he naturally wanted his son to be emperor. Zhu Qiyu not only put Zhu Qizhen under house arrest, but also found reasons to abolish the then teenage Prince Zhu Jianshen, and made his son Prince regardless of his opposition.

However, the dramatic thing is that no matter how many defenses Zhu Qiyu made, it was Zhu Qizhen who succeeded in restoration and became emperor for the second time, and Zhu Jianshen was once again made Prince.

And because Zhu Jianshen was shrouded in the shadow of Zhu qiyudeng when he was a child, he might die at any time and become the tragedy of the imperial family, which led to his character defects. He not only had a lot of weakness, but also stuttered and became a famous "stuttering emperor".

When he saw the quarrel and rudeness of the minister, Zhu Jianshen not only didn't blame him, but also sighed endlessly. The anecdotes between him and his 19-year-old concubine Wan were often talked about by later generations.

Although Zhu Jianshen's life experience is full of drama, he is not the king of inaction. For example, the doucai porcelain in the reign of Chenghua is one of his masterpieces. Among the many doucai porcelain in Chenghua, the achievement of the chicken jar cup is the most brilliant.

As is known to all, Chenghua doucai chicken jar cup is Zhu Jianshen's Royal wine utensil. It is named for its vivid posture, with peony, orchid and stone patterns.

The "doucai" porcelain making process is to combine the overglaze five colors with underglaze blue and white, to form the artistic effect of the overglaze and underglaze color painting competing for each other's splendor, and to draw the outline of all or part of the pattern with underglaze blue and white, and then to fill it with low temperature color, that is, the "doucai".

However, in the period of Chenghua, the blue and white outline was often highlighted or not filled, which is worth noting.

Chenghua's doucai is characterized by pure and delicate texture, rich and quiet glaze, and most of them are small and exquisite. This is the reason why Chenghua has no big utensils. The chicken jar cup is not only small in size and can be held on the palm of the hand, but also meticulous in painting.

Some people may want to ask why emperor Chenghua created the chicken jar cup, because there is such an allusion:

there are historical books that said that emperor Chenghua was keen on painting and calligraphy. Once he appreciated the painting "the picture of son hen" painted by the people of Song Dynasty, and saw the warm scene of the hen with a few chickens foraging. He was very touched, so he wrote a seven character poem on the painting, expressing the hen's love for the chicken Chicken care, and germination of his wish to make Chenghua colorful chicken bowl, plus the first year of Chenghua is the year of the chicken, "chicken" and "auspicious" homonym, so there is this world-famous baby.As Chenghua emperor's imperial wine cup, the chicken jar cup in the firing, in order to meet the high requirements of the Royal, the finished product rate can be called low, only the top quality can be offered to the court, and the inferior products are destroyed, so it is rare to spread to the folk, and because of its colorful, straightforward painting, it is known as the divine product in the industry.

Therefore, among ancient porcelain collectors, there is a saying that "it's better to save a kiln than to be rich". In addition, there is a saying in Wanli wild harvest that "a wine cup in a kiln is not as good as a hundred gold coins, which shows the extent of people's pursuit of chicken jar cup.

As for the value of the chicken jar cup, the Ming Dynasty Wanli "Shenzong record" wrote that "Shenzong fashionable food, before the emperor there was a pair of Chenghua color chicken jar cup, worth 100000", here "worth 100000", refers to the chicken jar cup is equivalent to the circulation of 100000 coins at that time, and "100000" is an imaginary number, representing the value of the city.

Until modern times, the chicken bowl cup was regarded as hard to get. It was sold in 1980 and 1999, which broke the world record of porcelain auction. For example, in 1999, it was sold at Sotheby's in Hong Kong at a high price of HK $29.17 million. Later, it was sold at a high price of HK $240 million in 2014.

Since the year of Chenghua, most emperors of later generations have imitated chicken bowl cups, but their finished products are far inferior to the genuine ones of Chenghua. Although they are rare old objects now, Lin Xi has every reason to believe that imitations are imitations after all, which can never be compared with treasures, and it is impossible to decompose so many purple and golden rays.

In other words, Lin Xi can almost confirm that the chicken jar cup he saw was the treasure of Chenghua doucai chicken jar cup.

You know, all the chicken bowl cups that have been handed down to the present day can be verified, but there are only 19. Some of them have even broken their appearance. However, I didn't expect that this precious treasure, which is so valuable that all the old players are flocking to, was met by Lin Xi in the street today, and it's still a coincidence. It's not dramatic.

If you let the old players know that the tall and thin men treat the chicken bowl like this, and even use it as a prop to cheat treasure, they really don't know how to feel. Or let the tall and thin men know that the porcelain bowl in their hands is priceless, and they really don't know how wonderful it should be. They just want to be beggars holding the golden bowl, and they don't know what to do.

Moreover, Lin Xi heard from Shu that if he put the chicken bowl cup at the auction house now, its value would certainly be much higher than that of the 1999 auction. If the auction house publicized well, it would not be a problem to buy 30 million yuan or 40 million yuan.

There is a saying that "If heaven doesn't take it, it's the fault". This kind of good thing of picking up the big leak of heaven is met by Lin Xi. How can he let it go? What's more, it's impossible for him to foolishly tell the tall and thin man that your porcelain bowl is a valuable treasure.

Just imagine, what is the concept of having 30 million yuan or 40 million yuan?
