Chapter 305 Old Qi's Calligraphy

Chapter 305 Mr. Qi’s calligraphy

......... Seeing the two old men discussing his crane painting, Liu Dong already had the answer in his heart, but he could not speak out due to his own secret. He could only stand aside respectfully like Mr. Li, Mr. and Mrs. Li, and Fu Kun.

Listen.

"We two are really old and confused. We only focused on looking at the flying crane in the painting and forgot about the promotion and seal next to it!" At this time, Mr. Qi suddenly laughed.

"Uh, that's right, the old habit has happened again!" After Mr. Xu said with a smile, the two of them looked at the promotion and seal on the corner at the same time.

"'The color of the painting has been exhausted for a long time, and the blue sky is still out of dust.' Taibai left the pen!"

"'For those who paint cranes in ancient and modern times, Mr. Xue should be the leader!' Fan Zhongli of Huayuan!"

"Lao Qi, it seems that our previous guess has been answered!" Mr. Xu said with excitement.

"Well!" Mr. Qi nodded heavily, "The only person who can be praised by the poet Li Taibai and the famous Fan Kuan is Xue Ji, one of the four early Tang Dynasty families!"

After finishing speaking, Mr. Qi turned around and walked to a desk with pen, ink, paper and inkstones near the window. After opening the drawer, he took out a box. After opening it, Liu Dong discovered that it was full of various models with different shapes.

Knives of different sizes, scissors, brushes, fine needles and the like.

Afterwards, Mr. Qi selected a few from them, and then walked back to the painting as if no one else was around. After carefully examining the painting, he began to take the knife from the corner to dismantle it. Seeing his old friend's actions, Mr. Xu naturally knew that he was

I had a plan, so I took a few knives as thin as willow leaves and began to cut off the stitches that connected the center of the painting to the outer coarse cloth one by one.

Seeing the two old men busy, everyone wanted to go up and help. However, they were afraid that they were not good enough and would be annoying, so they had to wait nearby.

"Mr. Li, why don't you and Grandma Li go sit outside and wait for a while?" Liu Dong walked up to the old man and whispered in his ear.

"I don't need to, but your grandma Li is not in good health and can't stand for long. I'll support her and let her sit outside!"

After hearing what Mr. Li said, Liu Dong nodded. But of course the old man couldn't do anything about this matter, so Liu Dong and Mu Gang went together. The two helped the old lady to the living room, and then asked Mu Gang to chat with the old lady, Liu Dong

He turned around and walked back.

After waiting for less than ten minutes, they saw Mr. Xu and Mr. Qi, together removing the white and yellowish coarse cloth from the outer layer of the crane painting, and then an old and yellowed piece, 56 cm high and 186 cm long.

The banner scroll appeared in front of several people. At this time, Mr. Li, Liu Dong, and Fu Kun, who had been waiting aside for a long time, all joined in.

After the whole group of paintings appeared, the scroll was no longer just five white cranes, but a beautiful scroll that combined pine trees, streams, and distant mountains. And on the hidden part of the scroll, there was not only the promotion of Xue Ji

And the seals, there are also the "Purple Chen Palace Treasure" of Li Longji of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty; the promotions and seals of Du Fu and Huang Quan; the seals of "Xuanhe Palace Treasure"; the seals of Dong Qichang of the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to the seals, there are thirty or forty seals of promotion, appreciation, and leisure left by other collectors, densely occupying the blank space at the beginning and end of the painting.

And now this painting also has a name, "Xue Ji's "Ruihe Tu""!

"Sure enough, it is Xue Ji's authentic work "Ruihe Tu" handed down from generation to generation. It has been passed down in an orderly manner!" After seeing the full picture of this painting, Mr. Xu's beard trembled with excitement.

And Mr. Qi's expression was not much more stable than him. The old man's hands began to tremble, his cheeks flushed, his body swayed, and he almost fell down.

"Mr. Qi, are you okay?" Liu Dong stepped forward, supported Mr. Qi's body, and asked hurriedly.

"Old Qi, are you okay?" Mr. Xu's face was a little nervous at the moment. He knew that his old friend was not in good health, and also had heart disease and high blood pressure. He must have fallen ill again when he was excited just now.

"Hey, I'm getting older, and my body is no longer good! Xiaodong, right? Help me sit down on the chair next to you. There is medicine in the first drawer on the left side of the desk, help me get it!"

After Mr. Qi finished speaking, Liu Dong quickly helped the old man to the chair next to him, and then took out the medicine from the drawer according to the old man's instructions. At this time, Fu Kun had already taken it from the water dispenser under Mr. Xu's instructions.

Bring a cup of warm water.

After Mr. Qi finished taking the medicine, he finally felt better. However, looking at his pale face and tired look, it was obvious that he had spent a lot of energy on appraising and dismantling the paintings just now.

"I'm much better, Xiaodong, please help me over. Xue Ji's authentic work has been unveiled. The old man must appreciate it no matter what, otherwise he will regret it for the rest of his life."

"Mr. Qi, you'd better rest first. I'll leave the painting here for now. When you're well, you can appreciate it again!" Liu Dong said quickly.

"Yes, Lao Qi, you should be obedient. The painting is here and has not been taken away. You have plenty of time to appreciate it, so there is no need to rush it now!"

"Yes, Brother Qi! Now that Xue Ji's painting has come out and it falls into Xiaodong's hands, this guy will never sell it. You can stay and appreciate it. When will you have enough?

Just ask him to come and take it away!"

Faced with the persuasion of Mr. Xu and Mr. Li, Mr. Qi finally nodded.

"Young man, you are so lucky! A painting of "Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains" by Mr. Huang Binhong and a painting of "Auspicious Crane" by Xue Ji. There are no such masterpieces handed down from generation to generation in the Forbidden City. Especially this authentic painting by Xue Ji, which is probably the most famous in the world.

This is his only authentic work handed down from generation to generation, and it fills a gap in the world of modern calligraphy and painting!"

Facing Mr. Xu's praise, Liu Dong showed a rare look of embarrassment. However, seeing the looks of approval on the faces of the people around him, Liu Dong didn't say anything else.

But at this time, he did not dare to take out the only authentic work of Zhang Sengyao in his bag, "The True Shape of the Five Stars and Twenty-eight Constellations", otherwise this would be the earliest surviving painting and calligraphy in the world, and it would also be a huge painting by a famous artist.

After he was born, Mr. Xu’s high blood pressure was not induced!

For the safety of the two old men, Liu Dong decided to wait until later.

Mr. Qi was in a good mood after admiring two handed down paintings in the morning. At noon, Mr. and Mrs. Li, as well as Liu Dong and Mu Gang, as well as Mr. Xu and his disciples, stayed to have dinner together. The two old men in the middle exchanged contact information with Liu Dong.

, and allow him to visit at any time.

After lunch, when Mr. Li and Liu Dong were preparing to say goodbye, Mr. Qi gave Mr. Li a painting of calligraphy, and to Liu Dong was Xunzi's "Encouragement to Learning", which had been framed and lasted five years.

The rice scroll! Judging from the promotion and seal on it, it is the work of Mr. Qi in the late 1980s. But seeing that the old man has been able to preserve it to this day, I guess it is also Mr. Qi's favorite thing.

Liu Dong was also very excited to receive this gift. Of course, it was inevitable that Mr. Li would be jealous for a long time.

Back at Mr. Li's courtyard, Liu Dong also told him about his plans to leave the capital, Huiquan City, in the afternoon.

"Originally, I wanted you to go home and sit around. Since your company has something to do, I won't keep you here. We will get together when you come to the capital again!"

After listening to Mr. Li's words, Liu Dong nodded. He will definitely come to the capital again. Not to mention the authentic "Ruihe Tu" by Xue Ji that is still at Mr. Qi's place, but the largest antique market in the country, Panjiayuan, is Liu Dong's.

It is a pity that he has not been to the three major antique markets in the capital, Liulichang and Baoguo Temple!

"By the way, Xiaodong! After you go back, don't forget to take good care of my treasures and Chenxiang Pavilion!"

"Mr. Li, don't worry. I also like collecting antiques. I will definitely look at your family heirlooms and the Agarwood Pavilion!" Liu Dong promised.

"Haha, I can rest assured that your boy is doing things steadily and appropriately! Well, you and Mu just have a rest and then leave. Your grandma Li and I will go back first!"

"Yeah!" Liu Dong nodded, and then watched the old man walk into the car and disappear around the corner of the alley.

After Mr. Li left, Liu Dong and Mu Gang simply tidied up, and then said goodbye to Zhang Ma. They hailed a taxi and went straight to the airport. By night, the two of them had already taken a taxi from the capital.

On the flight to Quancheng.

"By the way, Xiaodong! Those antiques you bought are still in Mr. Li's yard!" Sitting on the plane, Mu Gang suddenly remembered the dozens of antiques Liu Dong bought in Zhao's courtyard.

"Haha, don't worry, Brother Mu! I've already asked people to transport those antiques back to Quan City!" Of course, these words were meant to deceive Mu Gang. At this moment, these antiques were just staying in his mustard space.

"Oh, then I'm relieved! But when did you check it in, why didn't I know?"

Faced with Mu Gang's doubts, Liu Dong found an excuse to cover up his lies.

After comforting Mu Gang, Liu Dong leaned back on the comfortable armchair, and the scenes in the capital over the past five days slowly flowed through his mind like running water.

After everything emerged in his mind, Liu Dong couldn't help but feel a complicated feeling of right and wrong.

In these five to nearly six days, his collection has increased several times. The collection of seventeen or eight items before coming to the capital has increased to nearly eighty items now. If the collection in the Zhao Family Courtyard is taken into account,

If the dozens of antiques and the jades that are likely to come from the tomb of King Chuzhuang are also included, this number will double. If the two large boxes of comic books and original manuscripts are also included, the collection alone will

In quantity, Liu Dong has surpassed the treasure trove accumulated by three generations of Mr. Li.

And there are many true national treasures among them, such as the two great tripods of the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, the 'Chao Guoding' and the 'Zong Guoding'; the Hongshan Jade Pig Dragon; Zhang Sengyao's "Five Stars and Twenty-eight Constellations True Shape Diagram"; Dong

Qichang's authentic running script "Red Cliff Fu Volume"; "Tui Bei Tu" by Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng; "Nine Dragon Sutra" by Liu Ji; and finally three paintings and calligraphy and three pieces of porcelain hidden in the safe by a middle-aged man named Wang.

And Cixi’s Tian Huang Yuxi. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
