Chapter 663 Let’s give this imperial seal to Xiao Shen
"Xiao Shen, please take a closer look. In your opinion, is this jade seal really the emperor's seal of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty?" Lin Qingzhi took off his reading glasses, rubbed his sore eyes, and then handed the jade seal to him. Return it to Shen Yu and ask slowly.
Shen Yu stretched out his hands and solemnly took the Chihu Button Jade Seal. He pondered for a few dozen seconds before speaking calmly, "Seniors, the antique world is a mixed bag, and all kinds of deceptive methods are endless. In the nameless animal skin, the nameless animal skin has not yet been solved. Before opening, I made inferences based on the many clues mentioned by Mr. Wang, and once suspected that it might just be a prop used by the Tianxian Bureau swindlers to defraud."
Speaking of this, Shen Yu paused for a moment and gently rubbed the jade seal with his fingers, as if he was feeling the age of the jade seal through the touch of his fingertips with the jade seal. "But now it seems that this junior feels that this jade seal should be related to the group of swindlers." It’s completely unrelated.”
Lin Qingzhi touched his chin and asked noncommittally: "Tell me the specific reason!"
Shen Yu smiled, "The reason is not complicated!
"Not to mention the suet-like texture of this mutton-fat white jade, nor the ingenious craftsmanship and exquisite craftsmanship, let's just talk about the small official script of 'Destiny Guiwu' engraved on the jade seal. Three points into the bone, the swords and swords are full of imperial aura, which cannot be imitated by modern people relying on existing skills.
"In addition, I was lucky enough to witness a similar seal-cutting record in an ancient book from the Tang Dynasty. It is said that this technique originated from a reclusive family that specializes in carving jade seals for the royal family. The inheritance of this skill has a long history and is kept secret.
"Now we have compared the two in detail. Whether it is the style characteristics of the fonts or the charm and character contained in them, they are exactly the same. From this, we can basically verify the origin of this imperial seal."
Shen Yu did not directly assert that this jade seal must be authentic.
However, the meticulous analysis and interlocking logical reasoning in his words have unreservedly revealed his recognition of the authenticity of this jade seal deep in his heart.
The reason for my reservations is simply because I am concerned that others may hold different opinions, so I do not speak too absolutely.
Those present were all extremely shrewd people, and the profound meaning of Shen Yu's words could not escape their ears.
Wang Laoshou frowned slightly, "Xiao Shen, judging from the appearance alone, this jade seal is indeed extremely beautifully made, and the imperial aura faintly exuding from it is also quite extraordinary.
"But you have to know that since the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Sui Dynasty, according to common practice, except for the traditional jade seal that symbolized the orthodox imperial power, the rest of the jade seals were regarded as 'fake seals' and were destroyed.
"In ancient times, the management of symbols of imperial power was extremely strict. If one could not be found, one had to keep searching. But now that such a Seal of Destiny suddenly appears and circulates in the world, it is really puzzling. "
Ximen Hou, who had been silently beside him and didn't know what he was thinking, rolled his eyes slyly when he heard this, and then said in a tone that seemed to be very fair and objective: "Old Wang is right. This is the Chihu Button Emperor Seal. , from the perspective of craftsmanship, it is truly exquisite.
"But what Mr. Wang said is also directly to the point. There is no record of such a jade seal in the historical documents of the Sui Dynasty. This fact really makes people suspicious!"
At this point, Ximen Hou added hypocritically, "Little friend Shen, don't be angry. I'm not questioning your poor eyesight. I'm just discussing the matter and telling the truth!"
Shen Yu always had a faint smile on his face and said harmoniously: "Senior Ximen, what are you talking about? You are highly respected and a well-deserved senior in the antiques industry. Not to mention telling the truth so sincerely, even to If the younger generation speaks bluntly and admonishes you, the younger generation will definitely bow down and listen to your teachings with awe.
"As for my belief that this jade seal is authentic, it is just a personal opinion based on what I have learned. There may be many shortcomings in it and it cannot be taken as genuine. I hope all seniors will criticize and correct it."
Having said that, it’s time to talk about the ownership of this imperial seal.
Lin Qingzhi nodded slightly, and the original smile on his face gradually faded, and his expression became extremely solemn. He looked directly into Mr. Wang's eyes and slowly asked: "Old Wang, please think carefully about this imperial seal. Are you really willing to give it to Xiao Shen?
"You need to know that this treasure is by no means comparable to ordinary antiques. Although its preciousness cannot be said to be unparalleled in the world, it is also a rare treasure that is difficult to find in the world. If you regret your previous decision, it is completely normal. "
Mr. Wang waved his hands gently, with a look of disapproval on his face, "I don't think this Lao Shizi Emperor's Seal is real! Just think about it, those liars who set up the Immortal Bureau can even imitate Xuan Lu to make it look real. , with such means and scheming, how difficult is it to create an object that looks like a jade seal?
"Let's talk about the material. According to my rough estimate, the gold is only 150 grams to 180 grams at most. Although it looks dazzling, it is not difficult to obtain in today's market.
"As for this mutton-fat jade, its authenticity is unknown. It is not like mutton fat but more like ordinary white jade, and its value is within an estimable range. Based on this calculation, how high can its cost be?
"So in my opinion, this is probably just a well-made fake, just because there were some mistakes in the process of deceiving people and the wrong props were used!"
Mr. Wang paused, took a breath, and then said: "Besides, even if it is the real Jade Seal, I don't care about it!
"The aura it contains has a hint of evil spirit, which is very wrong. As the old saying goes, 'You can't suppress it if you don't force it.' Placing such a thing at home is very likely to cause some unpredictable troubles and Disaster.
"I have been immersed in Feng Shui mysticism all my life, and I have seen too many bizarre things caused by strange antiques, and I know the pros and cons. Rather than leaving them with you in fear, it is better to be free and easy-going and not be burdened by things outside your body.
"So, regardless of whether it is true or false, as far as I am concerned, there is no need to possess it.
"Besides, I am already over seventy years old. How much longer can I live? If I bring this kind of external thing with me in life, I will not take it with me in death. I think Xiao Shen, a young man, has potential and character. If he is really a rare
If these objects are put into Xiao Shen's hands, they may have different opportunities and fortunes, which can be regarded as making the best use of them."
Lin Qingzhi gave a thumbs up to Mr. Wang, "Old Wang, you have a great plan! Okay, since you don't want it, this seal will belong to Xiao Shen.
"Xiao Shen, why don't you quickly thank you, Senior Wang?"
