Chapter 778 Yongle Red Glaze

Wei Zhongxian, who has power over the government and the public, is extremely arrogant. Anyone who dissents or is disobedient will be punished.

In those years, countless loyal ministers and generals died at the hands of Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family.

In the autumn and August of the seventh year of Tianqi, Zhu Youxiao died, and King Xin Zhu Youjian came to the throne. The good days of Wei Zhongxian and his party came to an end.

Zhu Youjian had always been familiar with Wei Zhongxian's crimes, and he was deeply on guard. Wei Zhongxian's party members began to be afraid.

Yang Suoxiu and Yang Weiyuan first attacked Cui Chengxiu to test Zhu Youjian's intentions. The principals, Lu Chengyuan, Qian Yuancu, and Yuanwailang Shi Gongsheng, then discussed Wei Zhongxian one after another, but Zhu Youjian remained silent.

So Jiaxing Gongsheng Qian Jiazheng impeached Wei Zhongxian for ten crimes.

One is to be on par with the emperor, the other is to despise the queen, the third is to use military power, the fourth is to have no ancestors, the fifth is to cut down the vassal kings and make them nobility, the sixth is to have no saints, the seventh is to increase titles and rewards indiscriminately, the eighth is to cover up side achievements, the ninth is to exploit the people, and the tenth is to communicate with others. joint.

But none of them thought that Wei Zhongxian was already planning a rebellion at that time.

After the memorial was submitted, Zhu Youjian summoned Wei Zhongxian and asked the internal officials to read it to him.

Wei Zhongxian was very frightened and hurriedly bribed Xu Yingyuan, the eunuch of Xindi, with heavy treasures and asked him to rescue him.

Xu Yingyuan is Wei Zhongxian's former gambling friend.

Zhu Youjian knew about this and scolded Xu Yingyuan.

In November, Wei Zhongxian was sent to Fengyang for resettlement. On the way to Fengyang, Wei Zhongxian was still raising a group of desperadoes. When Zhu Youjian heard about it, he was furious and ordered Jin Yiwei to arrest them and take them back to Tiandu for trial.

Li Yongzhen learned the news and quickly sent someone to report Wei Zhongxian secretly.

Wei Zhongxian knew that he would not escape death. When he arrived in Fucheng, he heard the latter order, so he and his accomplice Li Chaoqin drank heavily at the Keshi Hotel in Nanguan, Fucheng until the fourth watch, and finally hanged themselves together.

However, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian did not understand his hatred.

He also ordered people to dismember Wei Zhongxian's body and hang it at the gate of Wei Zhongxian's hometown, Hejian Prefecture, for public display.

At this point, the dead demon who caused harm to the world has finally received its due retribution.

Now it seems that thanks to Zhu Youjian's alertness.

If the time is right, Wei Zhongxian will surely gain momentum.

What if Wei Zhongxian suddenly becomes angry?

Difficult, Zhu Youjian was caught off guard, and the Ming Dynasty might change hands in advance.

It is precisely because Zhu Youjian struck first that the treasures here were preserved.

From this point of view, Lu Fei would also like to thank Emperor Chongzhen.

Lu Fei secretly thought that when he goes to Tiandu City next time, he will definitely go to Meishan to worship Emperor Chongzhen.

Lu Fei looked at it twice, put the jade seal into the box and threw it aside.

Wang Xinlei took it and looked at it and asked.

"Brother Fei, is Wei Zhongxian's jade seal valuable?"

"Useless garbage." Lu Fei snorted coldly.

"No way!"

"This is the jade seal!" Wang Xinlei asked doubtfully.

"No, this is a seal, a very ridiculous seal."

"The emperor's talent is called Xi."

"Although Wei Zhongxian planned to rebel, he failed after all."

"What's more, he is just a eunuch, not even the parts are complete. Is he worthy of being called the seal?"

"So, this thing is just rubbish. It would be a fucking embarrassment to take it out."

"But this material is good, close to mutton-fat jade."

"Take it back to your sister and ask her to make two brands and a few pieces. There is no problem in selling it for hundreds of thousands."

Lu Fei said, taking out another rectangular box.

Weighing it with my hands, I found that the weight of this box was also not light.

Hold the lid and slowly open it.

The lid was only half open. Lu Fei frowned instantly, the pupils of his eyes contracted violently, and the veins on his forehead bulged out.

"Brother Fei, what is this?"

"Brother Fei"

Wang Xinlei shouted twice in succession, and Lu Fei recovered from the shock.

He said as he closed the lid and stuffed it into the bag.

"Just useless junk."

"oh!"

Wang Xinlei agreed, but in his heart he felt that Lu Fei was a little confused.

Brother Fei looked very nervous just now!

Besides, can he just put useless junk in his bag?

However, although Wang Xinlei had doubts, he still did not dare to ask.

Lighting a cigarette and taking a deep breath, Lu Fei came to the eight big boxes and inspected them one by one.

After opening them all, Lu Fei took a breath of air.

More than half of these eight boxes contain porcelain.

The main items are blue and white from Xuande and Yongle, and there are even two large blue and white dishes from the Yuan Dynasty.

The only regret is that I didn’t see Chenghua’s Doucai.

But there are a few really cool things.

Among them were six intact bright red glazed plates of exactly the same size and specification.

The red glaze plate is four centimeters high, with a diameter of 20 centimeters and a full diameter of 12 centimeters.

The plate has a curved mouth, a shallow arc wall, a circle foot, and the whole body is covered with red glaze. The mouth of the plate shows white fetal bones, and the inside of the foot is covered with blue and white glaze, without any mark.

The red glaze plate has a regular shape, thin body and light body, and the red glaze color is bright and pure.

Although there is no identification of the style, insiders can tell at a glance from the shape and opening of the vessel that it is a Yongle red glaze with a large opening.

During the Yongle period, red glaze technology reached a peak.

Prior to this, there was no red-glazed porcelain with pure color in the field of ceramics.

However, during the Yongle period, all the emphasis was placed on the creation and research of blue and white, and very few red-glazed porcelains were fired.

Coupled with hundreds of years of ups and downs, there are very few Yongle red glazes handed down from generation to generation, and even Guan Haishan's ancient treasures cannot exceed five pieces.

Therefore, the six intact Yongle bright red glazed plates in front of us are even more precious.

In addition to half of the porcelain, there is also a considerable portion of gold.

Most of these gold vessels are tableware and drinking utensils.

The craftsmanship is exquisite and the decoration is luxurious and beautiful.

There are even more bits and pieces left.

There are dozens of kinds of pieces, ivory carvings, four treasures of the study, etc.

Among them were a palm-sized golden abacus and a set of ivory chess sets. Lu Fei found them novel, so he picked them out and put them directly in his bag.

After checking again from corner to corner to make sure nothing was missing, the few people retreated.

There was still the last room left. Lu Fei took a deep breath and was about to open the door when the little puppy ran back in a hurry.

"Brother!"

"Panda, panda"

"Speak nicely, what happened?"

"Are those two pandas back again?" Lu Fei asked.

"No, dear brother, panda, panda, dead!"

boom--

After the little nanny finished speaking, Chen Xiang was shaken, took two steps back and almost fell down.

He was supported by Lu Fei, but he was already crying.

"Xiaolong, that is a national treasure!"

"You, how can you kill them!"
