Prince Zeng’s shop is at the entrance of Antique Street. Normally, there is always a row of clothes from various dynasties at the door. They are colorful and of various styles, which is quite eye-catching. Because Prince Zeng has a flexible mouth and a hint of princely temperament
, the business was pretty good. Luo Tian had glanced at his store a few times. Most of them were imitations of modern crafts, just antique styles. He also ran a clothing rental business.
Even though people often joked that he owned a clothing store, Prince Zeng never mentioned this treasure of a store. This was not in line with Prince Zeng’s personality. This shows how much this treasure of a store means to Prince Zeng.
, Luo Tian's expectations instantly increased.
It was already late at night, and there were far fewer people in the Antique Street. However, the opening hours of the Antique Street had not yet come, so there were still a few customers milling about in Prince Zeng’s store. Prince Zeng led Luo Tian straight into the inner room.
, the inner room was a bit messy, with many shelves stacked up. Luo Tian laughed in his heart, looking at this posture, it really looked like a clothing store.
Prince Zeng pushed the shelves away, and there was actually an upward staircase inside. It turned out to be two floors, but the space was much stingier than Zhou Bozhai's Qifangzhai. It was a bit crowded for two people to go up the staircase at the same time.
, Prince Zeng led the way, and Luo Tian followed closely behind.
There are two rooms above, one is where the clerks rest, and the other is where Prince Zeng's "office" is. Prince Zeng himself does not live here, this is just a place for him to surf the Internet. Who doesn't know Prince Zeng?
Actually a netizen?
After entering, he saw that the computer screen had not been turned off and the lights on it were flashing. Prince Zeng abnormally ignored it and moved the computer desk to reveal the wall inside. There was a super picture on it.
The large Guanyin statue was incompatible with the computer in the room. Luo Tian was a little dumbfounded: "Boss Zeng, you are too..."
"I believe in Buddhism, haha, and I also like to surf the Internet. There is no conflict." Prince Zeng took down the statue of Guanyin, and a piece of clothing hung on the back. Luo Tian took a look at it and exhaled: "The queen's dress of the Song Dynasty!
"
This Song Dynasty women's clothing is hung neatly, and the entire dress is shrouded in soft green light, which makes this Song Dynasty women's clothing look even more beautiful. The date on it is 1048!
In 1048, the queen who reigned this year was very famous - Cao, the queen of Song Renzong and Emperor Zhao Zhen. Speaking of this queen, the most commendable thing is that she was calm and capable when the rebellion broke out in the palace, and even saved the lives of the emperor.
In the first month of 1048, Renzong stayed in the palace of Queen Cao. In the middle of the night, a chaotic noise woke them up, and Renzong wanted to go out to see what happened. Queen Cao, please do not take this advice lightly.
Empress Cao gathered the people in the palace and guarded the palace gates respectively. She cut off a lock of hair for each person with her own hands. After the rebellion subsided, she used the hair as a record and rewarded her with water and fire protection. Kill them and retreat.
Renzong admired the rebels for not being afraid in the face of danger, adapting to situations well, and commanding decisively. He was worthy of being called a general.
For such a brave and resourceful queen, the dress in front of her could actually belong to her. Could it be that Prince Zeng was so secretive? This is really a treasure!
The clothing of the Song Dynasty, its colors and styles are mostly inherited from the Tang Dynasty, but the integration with tradition is better and more natural, giving people the feeling of restoring the Chinese style. Women's clothing in the Song Dynasty is to wear narrow-sleeved shorts.
, wearing a long skirt on the lower body, and usually wearing a long-sleeved short-breasted jacket outside the top, much like the current vest, the neckline and front of the jacket are embroidered with beautiful lace.
The most expensive costume of the empress of the Song Dynasty, it was rarely worn in daily life and was only used during the canonization or sacrificial ceremony by the emperor. Wearing this kind of costume, you must wear a phoenix crown on your head, a green gauze midriff underneath, and a dark green waistband covering the knees. In addition, white jade is hung.
Double pendants, jade ribbon rings and other accessories, and green socks and green jacket underneath.
This dress is a long-sleeved shirt, long skirt and silk cape. These are all styles of clothing left over from the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties. The big sleeves of the Song Dynasty were called big sleeves because the sleeves were wide.
This Queen's dress from the Song Dynasty is a classic large-sleeved style with gorgeous and dignified decorations. It is rare that this Queen's dress from the Song Dynasty is so completely preserved. Luo Tian has some questions in his mind: "It's strange that this dress is actually
It has been handed down so completely and is so well preserved. This would have been very difficult if the person who collected it had not known how to maintain it. By the way, this person must also know how to restore ancient clothing. I don’t know who maintained this dress.
yes?"
Prince Zeng pointed at himself proudly: "That's exactly what I am doing."
"You?" Luo Tian really felt that there was something out there, someone outside the world, such a master was actually hiding in the antique street, right next to him!
"That's right." Prince Zeng said, "That's me. To tell you the truth, I was a little worried about the origin of this dress, so after acquiring it, I have been repairing and maintaining it myself. It took a lot of effort to get it like this. It's okay.
I have put all my efforts into this queen's dress, and with this effort alone, it can be called the treasure of the store, right?"
"I'm sorry, but I'm very curious about the origin of this queen's dress?" As soon as he asked the question, Luo Tian's heart moved, and he had a vague suspicion, couldn't it be?
Sure enough, Prince Zeng lowered his voice and whispered in Luo Tian's ear: "I heard that this dress was originally obtained from a tomb robber. After several twists and turns, it fell into my hands. Although it was just hearsay, it's better to be careful.
, I don’t want to be the person who sells stolen goods, so I can only collect them and sew them myself.”
Prince Zeng is such a thoughtful person, why didn't he pay attention to such a number one person before? Luo Tian asked again: "Boss Zeng's craftsmanship is so good, I wonder where he learned it from?"
"It's self-taught, I guess. I've been interested in studying the textile technology of ancient clothing since I was a child, and I've invented a lot of tools myself. After I bought this piece of clothing, it took me five years to repair it to this level."
"It's really amazing!" Luo Tian only studied ancient books and porcelain restoration, and was completely unfamiliar with the restoration of ancient clothing. However, he knew how difficult the restoration work was. It was really rare that Prince Zeng could reach this level by one person.
People!
"Boss Zeng, let me see this, aren't you afraid of me..."
Prince Zeng waved his hand disapprovingly: "I know who can see this thing, and who can see it. You are the only one who can see it. You are the only one who can see it in the entire antique street, or even in the whole country.
"
This was so surprising that Luo Tian was a little flattered: "Thank you for your trust."
"Haha, I hope we still have the opportunity to do business on the same street." Prince Zeng put the Guanyin statue back: "Okay, it's getting late, go to bed early, maybe you will wake up in another world
Already."
"Good night." Luo Tian walked out of Prince Zeng's shop and sighed. There is no end to learning, there are masters everywhere, and he still needs to continue to work hard.
