Duan Fang is a man who loves cultural relics. In 1906, he went abroad to inspect Western politics and was about to return home, and he stayed in Cairo, Egypt for a short time.

Because Egypt has a long history, the government at that time was incapable.

So I didn't realize to protect cultural relics. A large number of precious cultural relics were pulled into the cultural relics market and placed on the shelves at very cheap prices.

Duan Fang immediately purchased a large number of Egyptian cultural relics, including painted coffins from the 19th dynasty of ancient Egypt.

The coffin is 185 cm long, 63 cm wide and 47 cm high. It is stored in the munayin of a noble woman.

The coffin lid depicts the appearance of the noble woman during her lifetime, and a cow is also painted on each side of the character.

In Egyptian culture, two cows are holy cows in the underworld, which can protect the dead.

Such things are absolutely impossible to forget just by taking a look at them.

So, Chen Wenzhe, who had just thought of this treasure, was impressed by the good things as soon as he saw the picture on the coffin board.

He lifted up the coffin board casually, and Chen Wenzhe looked elsewhere. Sure enough, there were still many rubbings pressing here.

In addition to the coffin, Duan Fang also purchased a large number of ancient Egyptian stone tablets, stone carvings, rubbings, etc.

But unfortunately, most of these cultural relics were sold clean by Duan Fang's descendants.

Only this painted coffin was fortunate to be collected by the National Museum.

It is very likely that because everyone knows that Duan Fang bought a lot of ancient Egyptian cultural relics that year, and except for the coffins, everything else was scattered, so someone would be able to imitate it!

As for whether the things here are genuine, don’t have such extravagant expectations.

Seeing Chen Wenzhe shaking his head while watching something, Chen Xingchen who had been following him was about to burst into laughter.

Although he doesn't know much about antiques, calligraphy, painting, inscriptions and calligraphy, the things here are so famous that even a fool knows that these cannot be true.

So, after seeing Chen Wenzhe shaking his head, Chen Xingchen began to despise Li Tianqiang.

But Li Tianqiang didn't care too much, but seeing that Chen Wenzhe had lost interest and was no longer checking carefully, he came to Chen Wenzhe instead.

"Boss, don't look at the others, just look at this Confucius Temple Monument!"

Chen Wenzhe was stunned: "What? Someone told you that this stone tablet is genuine?"

Of course, Chen Wenzhe would not think that Li Tianqiang would do this in vain, so he quickly realized something.

It is definitely not easy to be able to collect so much high-volume.

Since there are experts to give advice, what Li Tianqiang said is a bit credible.

So, Chen Wenzhe really looked at a stack of inscriptions not far away. As the saying goes, no matter what is here, as long as one of them is real, Chen Wenzhe can wake up in a dream.

After tumbling again, there was really a stone tablet under the inscriptions and calligraphy.

Chen Wenzhe was a little amused. If it was really a temple of Confucius, even if it was reprinted by later generations, as long as it was not reprinted by modern people, it would be a treasure.

The Confucius Temple Monument is very famous. Chen Wenzhe knew that it had been damaged at a very early age.

There are several types of "Confucius Temple Stele", which is the most famous for the written by Shinan of the Tang Dynasty and Yu, so it is called "Confucius Temple Stele" or "Confucius Temple Stele", which mostly refers to this stele.

In the ninth year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty, which was engraved in 626 AD, Yu Shinan wrote a book.

….

This stone tablet is an outstanding work among the inscriptions of the early Tang Dynasty, and is also a well-recognized masterpiece of Yu calligraphy by epigraphers and calligraphers of all dynasties.

This monument is to record the 33rd generation grandson of Confucius in the ninth year of Wude in Emperor Gaozu (626), and to celebrate the 33rd generation grandson of Confucius, and to promote the Shenghou Hou and rebuild the Confucius Temple.

It was engraved in the seventh year of Zhenguan (633), without writing.

Therefore, this stele is a Tang stele, written by Yu Shinan.

Yu Shinan's book "The Temple of Confucius" was originally called "Dongguan Tie". It was collected by Wang Shizhen of the Ming Dynasty and later went to the Qing Dynasty's inner palace.

During this period, he was earned by Dong Qichang, and Dong Qichang praised him very much.

Yu Shinan wrote this stele and was presented in ink version

Emperor Taizong of Tang.

Taizong gave the yellow silver seal of the Kuaiji Inner Historian of the Right Army General Wang Xizhi, whom he wore to Yu Shinan.

The thank-you note written by Yu Shinan was engraved in the "Qunyutang Tie" during the Song Dynasty, and has been lost.

The calligraphy of this stele is handsome, round and plump, elegant and quiet, and is a masterpiece in the inscriptions of the early Tang Dynasty.

After this monument was engraved, "only dozens of papers were copied to the close ministers, and the fire was almost gone."

Unfortunately, this monument has been lost for a long time and cannot be found.

In the third year of Chang'an in Wuzhou (703), Li Dan, the prime minister of Wu Zetian, was re-engraved.

This stele has thirty-five elements and sixty-four characters in regular script.

The six characters "The Monument to Confucius Temple" in the seal script were written by Li Dan.

And this re-engraved stone is not passed down now.

Huang Tingjian of the Song Dynasty wrote a poem: "The Emperor's calligraphy in Confucius Temple, Zhenguan, where can I buy a thousand taels of gold?" It can be seen that the original rubbing was rare in the Northern Song Dynasty.

So, let alone this stone tablet, even an ancient rubbing is very precious.

Only the fine ancient rubbings that exist in Qing Dynasty Li Zonghan got the old collection of Yushan in Yuankangli, which is known as the Tang rubbings.

It is difficult to determine when it was expanded.

Most of this rubbing is matched with the Shaanxi version, and its words that are full of confusion and loss of silence are mostly Tang versions.

Li Zonghan originally had the text of Weng Fanggang's explanation.

This rubbing includes Zhonghua Bookstore, Wenming Bookstore, Zheng Bookstore, Dahai Ancient Bookstore, Neon Erxuanshe, etc., and the original rubbing has flowed into Neon and Mitsui's house.

Of course, it is not that there is no such stone tablet now. In fact, there are still two stone carvings in the "Confucius Temple Stele" now.

It is located in the Chang'an Stele Forest Museum, commonly known as the "Western Temple Stele".

Song Wang Yanchao was engraved in Chang'an with thirty-five elements and 64 characters.

At the end of the stele, "Wang Yanchao rebuilt, An Zuo's engraving" is added in a line of nine characters.

During the earthquake in the 34th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (1555), the stone tablet was broken into three parts.

The second line "Yu Shi" is intact.

The back of the stele is engraved with Song Dun's "Xingsong Bang", seal script of Song Tangying, and engraved in May in the third year of Tianxi (1019).

Another piece is Chengwu in Qilu, commonly known as the "East Temple Stele".

This stone tablet is 2.08 meters tall, 0.89 meters wide, 0.22 meters thick, 33 lines of characters, and 33 characters in full line.

The regular script written in the book is soft on the outside and hard on the inside, harmonious and vigorous.

The word "ren" in the first line of the Ming rubbing version and the word "dan" in "Xin Sheren" and the word "dan" in "Xiang Wang Dan" are both intact.

During the Yuan Dynasty, the Dingtao River bank was unearthed during the collapse of the Dingtao River, and the date of the copying was unknown.

Unfortunately, this stone is not strong in texture, and the Ming rubbing is vast and thin.

Li Zonghan of the Qing Dynasty obtained the Kangli version, and there were many words that were used to revise the words "Chengwu version".

Weng Fanggang discusses the "East Temple Stele" being thinner and harder than the "West Temple Stele".

This monument is now in Chengwu County Cultural Relics Museum.

Others are "Qufu engravings", which were studied in Qufu County, Qilu, and were copied and engraved by Weng Fanggang in the 58th year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty (1793);

There is the "Jinjiang Academy Printed Version" in Raozhou (now Boyang County, Xijiang);

There are the Pan family "Haishan Immortal Pavilion" in Nanhai (now Nanhai County, Guangdong Province).

If the things in front of you may be genuine, then Chen Wenzhe is more optimistic about those rubbings than the stone tablet.

"These rubbings are also genuine!"

At this moment, Li Tianqiang proudly pointed to the other side of the rubbing.

Crazy God's crazy thinking
Chapter completed!
