After the red silk cloth was lifted, the Marquis of Jin saw seven round-mouthed porcelain tripods and six square-mouthed porcelain bowls displayed in front of him. It is all blue-gold glaze, painted with a solemn taotie pattern, the surface is smooth and the color is uniform, which is quite novel compared to the bronze and lacquerware that you are tired of seeing.

In fact, ceremonial vessels such as the tripod have been used thousands of years ago, and before the popularization of bronze, they were fired with pottery. Made into porcelain, the craftsmanship is not much different, and people can accept it. It's just that making this kind of identical large vessel, plus a more complex glaze than solid color porcelain, tests the skills of Lu potters.

Fortunately, they did not disappoint Zhao Wuxian, and they were even able to fool the discerning monarch smoothly.

Jin Houwu was very interested in the novelty of porcelain, but he didn't realize the benefits of it, and just played with it as a luxury.

And Zhao Wuxian said that these big weapons are unique among the princes. Jin Houwu suddenly felt that he had a lot of face, and he wanted to display it in the office, but he was admonished by Shi Mo.

"The monarch wants to replace the country's heavy vessel (bronze tripod) with flashy porcelain, which is just like the old Pinggong wanted to replace the solemn elegance with the sound of Sangjian Pushang, stop! Otherwise, the subordinate generals will be absent and hug Shi Jian and hit the king! ”

After hearing this, the Marquis ≠of Jin also felt that he had been playing a little too much recently, so he had to give up, and in the Qiqi Palace, Shi Mo could admonish him.

Shi Mo also intentionally or unintentionally said to Wuxian that every word and deed he had come to the palace these days had been recorded in Shi Jian, which was a hint to Wuxian, don't become a minister in the history books! lure the Marquis of Jin to play extravagantly.

"You know. In the past, Di Xin used rare ivory to make chopsticks, and Kei was terrified. For what? ”

He bowed respectfully and said, "I wish to listen to the teachings of history." ”

Shi Mo continued: "Ji thinks that it is the temperament of Emperor Xin. Ivory chopsticks are certainly not used with pottery utensils, but must be served in cups and bowls made of rhinoceros horn and jade. With ivory chopsticks and rhino jade cups, it is impossible to eat herb leaf soup, but must eat delicacies such as yak elephant leopard fetus. And the next step is not to wear short brown clothes, not to dine under the House of Maots, it must be nine layers of brocade clothes, wide room and high platform. Ji Xian, because he is afraid of his pawn. So it's terrifying. ”

"So five years later, the king set up the punishment of cannon branding, built a wine pond and meat forest, and the Dayi merchants died of extravagance!"

"The monarch makes powdered food, offers bows, and enters porcelain, these are all extravagant styles, isn't it tempting the monarch to go to the old man?"

Zhao Wuxian was gladly taught: "The teachings of history, keep it in mind. However, I have a clear conscience in what I have done, and I have allowed history to be recorded in history, and my merits and demerits can only be commented on by future generations. ”

Shi Mo squinted his eyes and looked at Zhao Wuxian for a while, and then said, "Okay." A good merit is left to future generations to comment, I just hope that when the old man records the deeds of the king in the future, it will not be 'Zhao Dun killed the king'! ”

Influenced by Zhao Ying. Wuxian has great respect for Shi Mo, but this persuasion to him. But some disagreed. Although Shi Mo inherited the Jin Shi Dong Hu, the Bin of the Shi Nan Shi of the Qi State was written straight. But history is like the ink on a bamboo slip, which can be easily erased by the victors.

What's more, he was just doing what the Marquis of Jin liked, after Shi Mo left, the Marquis of Jin still pulled Wuxian, complaining about the nagging and irritability of this Cai Guoren, Wuxian just listened and didn't say a word.

Rotten wood can't be carved, and Adou can't be supported!

Like Shang Xuan and Jin Hou Wu, the kings who lost their country and lost their government, all had their own internal character flaws, and they could not control themselves. Although Jin Houwu has a little ambition and a little scheming, he is playful and good-looking, and he is destined to not succeed in a big event.

Moreover, Shi Mo still looked away, he Zhao Wuxian was not a minister, but a traitor!

Wuxian has his own purpose, as the younger brother of Liuqing, digging the corner of the Marquis of Jin, there is no need to look ahead and think about the means. He is now like raising pigs, and after Jin Houwu's poor and extravagant desires are fed, in his mind, after Zhao Wuxian's weight increases, Wuxian's knife will be cut off, and he will make his own request.

Therefore, let Jin Houwu play extravagantly and how to play, Zhao Wuxian himself is very honest and simple, and he buys all the valuable porcelain, and he doesn't leave a few pieces in his house for decoration.

The only thing to pay attention to may be to eat in one bite, but since even Sage Kong is a foodie who "never gets tired of eating, and never gets tired of being fine", what's wrong with him asking for a little extravagance?

The benefits of Zhao Wuxian's currying favor with the Marquis of Jin were obvious, and he successfully won the exclusive right to supply porcelain in the Qiqi Palace for Chengxiang. This was a steady stream of orders, and from then on, Gong would bring in five carts of fine porcelain from Chengxiang every few days, and they were slowly replacing the pottery in the palace.

As the leader of the alliance, the Jin State was often able to receive many tributes from the princes, and the Qiqi Palace accumulated a large amount of wealth and goods for many years, and began to quietly transfer to the treasury of Zhao Wuxian's township temple.

For the Shaofu of the Marquis of Jin, this may be a drop in the bucket, but for the remote township without compassion, it is a huge amount of money every month!

Unlike the wheat flour making method that has been leaked, and so far there has been no porcelain in the whole world, he has learned his lesson and kept the craftsmanship and craftsmen a secret. Although Zhao Ying also asked, Wu Xian explained that it would be safer to burn in Chengxiang, which had already completed the local reform, and it was rare and expensive, so Zhao Ying did not let him offer it.

What Zhao Wuxian didn't know was that after Shi Mo returned to the storage room in the Yuqi Palace, he nodded to his colleague Shi Zhao Shigui and others, and sorted out one bamboo roll after another.

When he was busy in the dead of night and he was the only one left, Shi Mo took out a brief volume from a hidden place, spread it out, and thought about what he had seen and heard in the past few days, and added another stroke under his mysterious prophecy of "Wu will die forty years later".

"The Dead Jin, Zhao Ye!"

After doing this, Shi Mo hid the brochure again, walked out of the house with his hands behind his back, looked at the gradually rounding moon, recalled what happened to his hometown Cai Guo, and sighed that the fate of heaven is impermanent and the society is impermanent.

Of course, every time he entered the palace, Zhao Wuxian would also visit Le Qi and bring him some Song flavor food made by Le Ling, plus some bamboo rolls to relieve boredom, as well as various interesting things about Xinjiang, or old news of the Song Kingdom.

Although Le Qi's body has not improved, he is still coughing and wheezing, but his mental state is indeed much better.

He has already begun to follow what Wuxian has said, trying to "make a statement" in prison.

Le Qi showed Zhao Wuxian a brief book that had been described in the last half month, and the outline listed on it was about the history of the Song Kingdom. Among them, the secret past events involving the battle of Zhou Xing Muye in Yin, the beginning of the Song Dynasty, the life of Song Xianggong, the wisdom of Si Chenghan, the ancestor of the Le family, the contributions made by the Song State in the two military meetings, and the unknown inside story of the Huaxiang Rebellion.

Zhao Wuxian was embarrassed after watching it, although this chronicle is more subjective and has a suspicion of blowing the Song Dynasty, but it is still well written. Compared with the abbreviated chronicles of various countries now, Jin Zhi's "Cheng", Lu Zhi's "Spring and Autumn", and Chu's "梼杌" (taor/>

Of course, at his suggestion, intentionally or unintentionally, Le Qi also cited the biographical style and established biographies for several of them, such as Emperor Xin Weiqi Song Xiang Company Cheng Han.

Zhao Wuxian will also think, could it be that under the flapping of his little butterfly wings, before Kong Qiu finished compiling Lu Chunqiu and Zuo Qiuming's "Zuo Biography", there would be a copy of "Le's Historical Records" in the world? (To be continued......)
