Chapter 961: The Seal of the Kingdom is Born


Carl Morris walked into the main hall of the North House, and then put the alloy lockbox in his hand on the table of the old sea yellow eight immortals worth millions, and Thor Smith and Shaun Hannington on the side took out the key hanging around his neck and put it on the table, Yang Jing also took out a key hanging around his neck, and then used this key to open the pair of handcuffs on Carl Morris's wrist."

Carl, you guys should go out first, pay attention to the safety around you, no one can enter this room without my permission.""

Don't worry, boss, not even a fly can fly in here!"

Morris smiled and rubbed his wrist, and as he spoke, he walked out with the other two bodyguards, and after going out, closed the door."

Xiaojing, open the box quickly."

Master Liu Lao rubbed his hands and said, the other three masters were also a little impatient.At this time, they still didn't understand, an apprentice brought them here today, to see that this house and those treasures were actually secondary, Yang Jing had already prepared to let the four of them take a look at this heirloom jade seal, but the four of them had been delayed for too long in those collections in the basement.But at this time, the four of them didn't care about complaining about the apprentice, and all the thoughts of the four of them were put in this small alloy lockbox.This is the legendary heirloom jade seal!

Yang Jing nodded, grabbed the two keys on the table, inserted them into the two keyholes of the alloy lockbox, and then turned around three times each, and an inaudible "click" sound came from inside the box.Yang Jing let go of the key and began to enter the code on the combination lock of the lockbox.He first entered a series of electronic codes as high as eleven digits on a small LCD screen, and then turned six mechanical password numbers from another wheel password, and then the small-looking alloy lockbox was completely opened.This small alloy lockbox is not big, but it weighs more than 20 kilograms, and the outer layer is made of extremely hard high-temperature resistant special high-strength alloy mixed with ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber, which can withstand high temperatures of 3500 degrees, even if the tracks of the main battle tank are pressed up, the box will not be deformed.Then the chest has four sets of locks, and the box can only be opened if the four sets of locks are opened in order!

This alloy lockbox alone cost Yang Jing 160,000 US dollars!

Under the gaze of seven pairs of eyes, the box was opened, and a large seal of the dragon button with white and blue immediately appeared in front of everyone.The room fell silent again, and the only sound was the heavy breathing of the other seven people except Yang Jing.After a long time, Guo Xiaoxiang whispered: "Old Yang, this is the legendary jade seal?"

It doesn't look like much. ”Although Guo Xiaoxiang's voice was small, it was tantamount to thunder in the quiet room, and the master Liu Lao glared at Guo Xiaoxiang fiercely, and then said dissatisfiedly: "What do you kid know?"

Don't talk nonsense!

”Guo Xiaoxiang shrank his head and stuck out his tongue, not daring to squeak again.The four masters almost unanimously took out white gloves, reading glasses and magnifying glasses from their pockets, and the second master, Xiao Lao, said: "Xiao Jing, find a soft cushion to come over, if there is no cushion, you can come over with the bed quilt."

Spread it down and we'll get started!

”Yang Jing hadn't moved yet, and Pete Wu on the side hurriedly opened the door and ran out, not at all revealing that it was an old man over seventy.After a while, Pete Wu walked in with a quilt in his arms, and then spread the quilt on the table of the Eight Immortals.At this time, the Ming Dynasty Lao Haihuang Eight Immortals table worth millions is nothing in the eyes of everyone, if this jade seal is really a national seal, that table is a p!

Not to mention anything else, the fact that this heirloom seal can be placed on this table is probably a blessing that has taken hundreds of years to cultivate this table.Master Liu Lao was already dressed neatly, he looked at the other three masters, and then said solemnly: "Why don't I get started first?"

”Second Master Xiao Lao said: "Lao Liu, you are proficient in bronze and jade, you can get started first, and we will watch from the side first." ”Liu Lao nodded, and then carefully held the heirloom seal with both hands.He first straightened his arms and held the Chuan Guoxi with both hands to look carefully at it from a distance for a while, and then he held the Chuan Guoxi in front of his eyes and began to study it at close range."

Well, yes, yes!

This jade seal is very consistent with what is recorded in the history books.In the history books, it is said that this heirloom jade seal is made of 'the best Lantian jade, the color is white and slightly green, four inches in circumference, about 112 centimeters now, the new one, the inscription is written by Li Si with the fish and bird seal, "ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang" eight words, by the Xianyang jade worker Sun Shou fine grinding, carved out', now it seems, this jade seal is very in line with the record of the history books. ”Liu Lao turned the jade seal slightly, and everyone's eyes immediately fell on the corner that was repaired by gold, and Guo Lao on the side also said: "The history books record, 'Qin is destroyed, and the seal of the country must be returned to Liu Han.At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang, a foreign relative, usurped power, and the widow was young, and the seal was hidden in the Empress Dowager of Changle Palace.Wang Mang sent his brother Wang Shun to ask for it, the Queen Mother angrily reprimanded it, and threw the seal to the ground, broke a corner of it, and then Wang Mang ordered the craftsman to make up for it with gold', which is the source of the famous 'gold inlaid jade seal'.Now it seems that this corner that has been filled by gold is also very consistent with the records of historical books. ”Cai Yi leaned over and pointed to Yuxi's shoulder and said, "Old Liu, use a magnifying glass to look at this line of official books." ”What Cai Yi meant, of course Liu Lao understood, but he didn't make a move, his two hands were holding this jade seal, he didn't dare to let go of his hand and hold the jade seal with one hand.Xiao Lao, who was on the side, picked up the magnifying glass and put it on the shoulder of the jade seal, and the four white-haired heads immediately came up."'

The Great Wei is a national treasure of the Han Dynasty', well, yes, it is an official book, and it is also an official book in the late Eastern Han Dynasty!"

The second master, Xiao Lao, is a master of calligraphy, so he can naturally see the font of the seven characters at a glance, and he can directly identify what era this is.Although the official book originated in the Qin Dynasty, it was flourishing in the Han Dynasty, especially in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the official book was developed to the extreme, so the official book in the late Eastern Han Dynasty had an obvious style, which was quite different from the official book of the Western Han Dynasty and the Qin Dynasty.As one of the few calligraphers in China, Xiao Lao naturally has a very clear understanding of the changes in official calligraphy.And in terms of his identity and status, since he said that the seven characters on the shoulder of this jade seal were the official script of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, then this was almost the final answer.Liu Lao is proficient in jade and bronze, and he can naturally see what kind of jade this jade seal is used.So he said: "The jade used in this jade seal is indeed the legendary best Lantian jade, although the Lantian jade is almost invisible now, I have seen two pieces of Lantian jade carved ornaments in the Nanbo and the Moss North Palace Museum.I can conclude that the material of this jade seal is Lantian jade. ”Guo Lao also nodded and said: "At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the first year of Emperor Yankang of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Liu Xie was forced to 'Chan concession', and Cao Pi established the Great Wei Dynasty and changed the Yuan to the beginning of the Huang Dynasty.However, Cao Pi was not right, in order to cover up the fact that he usurped the throne, he carved the seven words "Great Wei Shou Han Chuan National Treasure" on the shoulder of the jade seal, which was really to cover it.Judging from the seven words engraved on this jade seal, it is very consistent with the situation recorded in the history books. ”Four white-haired, almost 300-year-old old people got together, and in the middle was the jade seal held by the master Liu Lao's hands, this scene was a bit joyful.However, the faces of the four masters were solemn, and their words were full of solemnity.Liu Lao said: "From the point of view of the type, materials, and fonts, this jade seal is almost no different from the jade seal recorded in the history books, and I look at this jade seal, giving people a kind of condensed and generous charm, the most important thing is that the carving technique of this jade seal is obviously the carving technique of the Qin Dynasty, although the Han Dynasty's Han Badao carving technique was developed from the carving technique of the Qin Dynasty, and also inherited the rough and generous style of the Qin Dynasty carving, but the gap between the two is still relatively obvious, so, I think this jade seal is very likely to be from the Qin Dynasty!

”Although Liu Lao did not explicitly say that this was the heirloom jade seal that Li Si ordered to create, in the Qin Dynasty, who would dare to risk losing his head to carve such a jade seal?

And ordinary counterfeiters can't get this kind of superb Lantian jade.Therefore, when Liu Lao said this, it almost means that he thinks that this jade seal is the national seal.Guo Lao also nodded, but he did not express his opinion, but obviously agreed with Liu Lao's words.However, Cai Yi retorted: "Lao Liu, Lao Guo, this matter can't be concluded so early.You must know that after the disappearance of the national seal at the end of the Tang Dynasty, many emperors in later generations have imitated a lot of jade seals, and after all, they were imitated by the royal family themselves, so they may be able to make a fake and real national seal?

Therefore, I think it is better to do a carbon 14 measurement before drawing conclusions. ”"Carbon fourteen?

Joke!

This is a national seal, who dares to take a sample from it?

”Guo Lao threw out a sentence, and the four of them were immediately silent.Carbon 14 identification is a very scientific identification method, but again, in order to perform carbon 14 identification, it is necessary to take samples on the item being identified.If it were something else, it might be easy to say, but this is a jade seal of the country, who dares to take a sample on it?

Even if it's just a small amount, who would dare to do such a thing?

They dared to take samples on any other heavy treasure for carbon 14 identification, but this heirloom jade seal, to be honest, even the four of them did not dare to move.The significance of the jade seal of the country is too great!

In addition to the legendary Dayu Jiuding, in the entire 5,000-year history of China, there is nothing more important than this heirloom jade seal!

The heirloom jade seal is not just a national treasure, and the significance of this jade seal is simply immeasurable!

So, no one dared to do anything about it.Xiao Lao was silent for a while, then suddenly turned his head and asked Yang Jing: "Xiao Jing, have you cleaned up this jade seal?"

Also, where did you find this jade seal?

”Hearing the second master, Xiao Lao's question, Yang Jing let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Four masters, I thought you had forgotten me!"

”Master Liu Lao gently put down the jade seal and then said very seriously: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and talk about all the things about this jade seal, don't miss anything!"

”Seeing the seriousness of what the master said, Yang Jing shrank his head, put away his playful mood, and began to tell the whole process of discovering this jade seal in a serious manner.
