Chapter 273: The Origin of Sky Blue

Jingdezhen, the porcelain capital.

After Li Han, Su Yuqing and Qin Xiaoyue arrived, they booked a room in a hotel, then walked out of the hotel and arrived at Cidu Avenue.

There are many people, some locals, and some people come to visit.

When you walk into the Ceramics History Expo area, you can clearly feel the heaviness of ceramics history and culture.

Walking in the expo area, Su Yuqing asked Li Han: "Do you think a song can really make people interested in ceramics and ceramic culture?"

Li Han said: "If the song is good enough, there is still a little possibility. Although it is impossible for everyone to suddenly become interested in ceramics and ceramic culture after listening to that song. However, it is still very likely that people can have some interest in ceramics and what they want to learn more about ceramics."

Su Yuqing said: "But can there be such a good enough song?"

Li Han said: "Maybe there is."

Su Yuqing smiled sweetly and said, "Where is it? Did you write it yourself?"

Li Han smiled and said, "I don't have any inspiration yet. Are there many musicians trying to create now? Let's take a look at their works first?"

Su Yuqing said: "I don't have any hope for their works."

Li Han smiled and said, "Yuqing, you seem to love ceramics quite a bit. Which ceramic do you like the most?"

Su Yuqing said: "I do like ceramics very much. Because ceramics are a culture and inheritance that deserves the pride of every Yan people. The ceramics in our country have been famous all over the world since ancient times. For thousands of years, it can be said that hundreds of porcelains compete for beauty and are so beautiful. As for which kind of ceramics I like, it is hard to say. Each ceramic has its unique culture and charm. If you have to say one thing, it may be blue and white porcelain."

"Is blue and white porcelain?" Li Han nodded, "Blue and white porcelain is one of the mainstream varieties and belongs to underglaze colored porcelain. It began to appear as early as the Tang and Song dynasties. It was very mature in the Yuan Dynasty. Then it developed to its peak in the Qing Dynasty."

Qin Xiaoyue said: "Li Han, are you so familiar with ceramics?"

Li Han smiled and said, "I just know a little bit of the skin. Ceramic culture is profound and it is not that easy to get familiar with it."

Su Yuqing said: "That's true. There is a sky blue ceramic workshop in front of me, which should have blue and white porcelain. Let's go in and see how?"

Li Han and Qin Xiaoyue's two daughters naturally had no objection.

The three of them walked into the Tianqing Ceramics Workshop, where there were a wide variety of ceramics, almost every piece of ceramic was very exquisite.

These ceramics are all claimed to be made through traditional hand-made porcelain technology. I don’t know if they are true or false?

Li Han and the other two couldn't see these names.

Looking all the way, Qin Xiaoyue suddenly said "huh", stood in front of a porcelain, and said, "Why is this porcelain only one color?"

When Li Han and Su Yuqing saw that there was only one color, which was relatively rare in porcelain.

Ordinary porcelains have quite fancy patterns, and the colors do not look single.

However, this porcelain has no patterns and is quite special among all porcelains.

Why is this happening? Is there any particularity?

Li Han thought about it and found that his knowledge of ceramics was not rich. However, he still thought of a possibility, which should be Ru kiln porcelain.

Ru kiln porcelain generally seems to be a color, right? And it is this color that looks like blue, blue and green.

Li Han smiled and said, "Xiaoyue, what color does this kind of porcelain mean?"

"Color?" Qin Xiaoyue said, "It's green. Then it seems to be a little blue."

Li Han said: "The statement is correct. However, it is not accurate. Its color actually has an accurate statement."

"Oh?" Qin Xiaoyue asked in confusion, "What is the exact statement?"

Li Han said: "This color is called sky blue."

"Sky blue?" Qin Xiaoyue said, "Why is it sky blue? Also, what color is sky blue?"

Li Han said: "Sky blue is actually not a fixed color. What is sky blue? This cannot be defined. Because it is the color that appears in the sky when it suddenly clears after heavy rain. That color is not constant."

Qin Xiaoyue said: "Since it is an undefinable color and is not fixed, why should this ceramic color be named 'Sky Blue'?"

Li Han smiled and said, "The rain has passed the sky and the clouds are so bright that this color will be used in the future."

What?

Qin Xiaoyue was stunned and said, "What does it mean? It looks like a poem but not a poem."

Su Yuqing said: "I know this. According to legend, this sentence was said by Emperor Huizong of Song. During the Song Dynasty, Ru kiln was specially used by the royal family. Therefore, after the kiln officials finished firing Ru kiln porcelain, they went to Emperor Huizong of Song to name the color. It happened to rain heavily and the sky suddenly cleared. Emperor Huizong of Song looked at the colors in the sky and said, "The rain passed the sky and the blue clouds, and this color was the future." He named the color 'Ziqing'."

Li Han smiled and said, "Yes, if you want to see the blue sky, you must wait until a heavy rain, and then the sky clears up again. It can be said that it is not easy to break."

Qin Xiaoyue finally understood that there was such a statement.

At this time, someone next to him suddenly said, "'The rain has passed the sky and the sky is blue and the clouds are so bright, and this color is the future." The two young men are so old, but they still know this statement. It's good, good."

The three of them turned their heads at the same time, and saw that the person who was talking was a man in his fifties. He was nodding and smiling at them at this time.

Li Han said: "It makes the sir laugh."

The man is the head of the Jingdezhen cultural department, Lu Hongliang.

This Tianqing Ceramic Workshop is the official ceramic production craft workshop in Jingdezhen.

Therefore, Lu Hongliang has come here quite a few times.

I just came in today and heard two young people talking about the origin of "Sky Blue" and I couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Not many people know the relevant statements, let alone two such young people.

Lu Hongliang was very happy, and then he couldn't help but say praise.

After hearing Li Han say this, Lu Hongliang said: "The young people say it very well. None of the three seem to be locals. Did they come here specifically for fun?"

Li Han said: "That's true. I am from Funan, and they both come from the Demon City."

Lu Hongliang smiled and said, "Welcome! Welcome! Are you going to choose ceramics when you come to the store?"

Li Han said: "I won't choose for the time being, it's inconvenient to hold it. We just plan to come in and take a look at the blue and white porcelain."

Lu Hongliang said: "So that's it. Please let me go. By the way, those over there are blue and white porcelain. If you have any questions, please come and ask me."

Li Han hurriedly thanked and then asked, "Do you dare to ask what you call sir?"

Lu Hongliang smiled and said, "My surname is Lu, Lu Hongliang."

Li Han said: "It turns out to be Mr. Lu."

Afterwards, Li Han and the other two said goodbye to Lu Hongliang and arrived at the blue and white porcelain area.
