Hello everyone, I take the time out of my busy schedule today to bring you the following article, welcome to taste it together!
"Since Qin Shi Huang obtained the Lantian jade as a seal, it will be passed on to the Han Dynasty." - "Ming Shi, Youfu Zhi, Emperor Baoxi"
The jade seal, like a modern seal, is a symbol of status, especially the jade seal in the hands of the emperor, and it is the key to determining the major affairs of the country. Therefore, in many times of imperial turmoil, the emperor would subconsciously protect the jade seal so as not to cause unnecessary problems. Today, those things that were cherished by the ancient emperors have become ancient history, and when we see the jade seal again, the first thing that comes to mind is not the imperial power, but the value of the jade seal itself.
Unfortunately, the vicissitudes of time and the relentlessness of time will slowly disappear without being properly preserved, even the things that the royal family cherishes. Especially in China, which experienced the invasion of the Eight-Power Alliance, the number of cultural relics lost could not be fully counted. This has also made the cultural relics unearthed later more and more precious. Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, was once the capital of many dynasties, where the number of cultural relics unearthed was the most prominent, even primary school students can pick up a jade seal when they come home from school, hand over to the state for a 20 yuan bonus, and 45 years later, experts come to the door.
People living in Xi'an, Shaanxi, have been strange about cultural relics, after all, they are around too many things related to the ancients, exaggerated, casually find a stone on the street, have a long history, it is no wonder that other primary school students can also pick up the jade seal. The schoolboy who picked up the jade seal is named Kong Zhongliang, and the story takes place by a small stream.
That stream is located on the only way for Kong Zhongliang to go home, and the playful Kong Zhongliang can't resist the temptation of the creek, just when he was playing, he saw a crystal white jade stone in the water, he carefully carried this stone home, and shared his happiness with his father. However, Dad was not like Kong Zhongliang, just a simple child, and his first reaction when he saw this white jade stone felt very unusual, like a cultural relic in the cultural relics museum. In order to solve the doubts in the heart, and in order to ensure that the cultural relics are not lost outside, Kong Zhongliang's father took the jade to the cultural relics management center and prepared to identify the stone.
When the expert got the stone, he looked at it all and told Kong Zhongliang's father that it was a jade seal, and the queen's seal carved below represented that it was also a royal object. As for which queen thing it was, experts are not clear, they have been searching for information overnight and finally found the origin of The Jade Seal. It turned out that this was the jade seal of Lü Yan, the empress dowager of Han Gaozu. Experts can't help but think that since ancient times, the emperors have been buried together, and there may be other clues to the place where the jade seal was unearthed, and the expert asked Kong Zhongliang's father to take them to the place where the jade seal was found. Living up to expectations, near this stream, the tomb of Han Gaozu's ancestor Liu Bang was successfully excavated, Kong Zhongliang as the number one hero, and the Cultural Relics Bureau reimbursed the 20 yuan fare as their reward.
After 45 years, this piece of jade seal picked up by Kong Zhongliang turned out to be the treasure of the museum, in order to thank Kong Zhongliang for his selfless dedication, so the experts came to the door to issue honorary certificates to the father and son. A city with a long history of culture, after the baptism of time, the previous history will be slowly worn away, and if we want to understand the past of a city, we must pass through these cultural relics. The cultural relics exhibited in today's museums are only a corner of history, many things have disappeared with time, and the later the cultural relics are excavated, the more serious the damage, and the more precious the cultural relics. In the face of such a precious thing, Kong Zhongliang's father and son can decisively hand it in, which also proves their selfless qualities, after all, not everyone can maintain their hearts in the face of such a big temptation and think about the country and the people. Kong Zhongliang, as his name suggests, is a loyal man, worthy of everyone's study, and worthy of every student's example.
Artifacts exist in order to give us a better understanding of the past and history. Although China's 5,000 years of culture has been very broad and profound, there are some key things that we need to continue to explore, let us pay tribute to these explorers who have been exploring history, they are the most lovely people in the world
