Chapter 158 The Battle of Qinggang Ridge (Extreme Sound)

The little girl came back to her senses and put the porcelain on the table.

After seeing this piece of porcelain, even Wu Zetian stood up, got off the dragon chariot, and walked to the table to watch.

Not only Wu Zetian, but even other ministers stood up, squeezed over, and looked at the porcelain.

It was Xiao Yuzhen'er who stood in front of this porcelain and forgot to look not far away. Li Gu'er was whispering in Wang Hua's ear while talking: "Erlang, you are so amazing that you can burn such a porcelain." Come."

Wang Hua smiled.

For the shock of everyone, he had already expected it.

This piece of porcelain is the real color porcelain, and it is a mature underglaze red color porcelain!

Underglaze red and blue and white are both underglaze colors.

Underglaze color is to use pigments to draw various patterns on the formed and dried biscuit (ie semi-finished product), and then cover it with white transparent glaze or other light-colored surface glaze, and fire it at one time.After firing, the pattern is covered by a layer of transparent glaze film, the surface is bright and soft, smooth and not protruding, and it looks crystal clear.

The emergence of underglaze colored porcelain can be traced back to the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, but at that time it was only decorated with simple dots of color pigments.In the present Gongxian kiln and Changsha kiln, some rough underglaze colored porcelain also began to appear.But the effect was extremely unsuccessful.It was not until the Yuan Dynasty that it became more and more perfect. It includes blue and white, underglaze red, underglaze three-color, underglaze five-color, underglaze brown color, and brown-green color.

Underglaze red is more difficult to manufacture than blue and white.The material should be very finely ground, and water should be added frequently to avoid separation of material and water when drawing.And before painting, apply a layer of blue and white base glaze, then paint with red material in the glaze, and finally blow a layer of blue and white cover glaze.And then fired at high temperature.

This piece of porcelain fired by Wang Hua is very famous among underglaze reds. Its shape comes from the underglaze three-color crane and deer Tongchun olive vase made during the Kangxi period.Sancai includes underglaze red developed on the basis of copper craftsmanship, mature bean green developed with iron as the colorant, and blue and white.But this kind of blue and white is not the blue and white of Yuan Dynasty, but a kind of green material with high manganese content brought back by Wan Dahai from Ruizhou, Jiangxi, also known as azurite.

Using iron and copper as colorants was developed on the basis of firing sauce-colored porcelain and Jun porcelain.This craft seems to be connected, but the development process, if it is not catalyzed by Wang Hua, would take hundreds of years of accumulation, and it would not enter the mature stage until the Ming Dynasty.The Yuan Dynasty had it, but it was very unsuccessful.

Not only that, but the clay body of this porcelain vase also comes from Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province, but now it is not called Jingdezhen, but Changnan Town.

When making this porcelain pattern, Wang Hua added his own understanding, which is a little different from the original pattern.The effect of the picture is not inferior, and this kind of picture is more in line with the aesthetic point of view of people in Tang Dynasty now.

However, a large amount of violent waste products are produced when burning.Therefore, Wang Hua had to draw again and again, and now he can contemplate almost every part of the pattern on the porcelain, even a pine needle.

At the same time, because of the short time, the effect is not as ideal as the original.

But this piece of porcelain was not placed in the Qing Dynasty, but in the Tang Dynasty.

Where did people at this time see such colored porcelain?What's more, the Xing Bai mentioned by the poet is white as snow and white as jade. The fetal white of this porcelain makes people know what porcelain is like suet white jade!

The appearance of such porcelain in this era can be said to be truly unique!
Wang Hua was not very satisfied, but finally fired these six kinds of porcelain.Although it took more than 100 technicians to spend more than a month, in cooperation with him, more than a dozen furnaces of porcelain were fired, tens of thousands of pieces of porcelain were tested, and more than 300 pieces of violent waste were produced. Including labor, nearly [-] guan.In other words, there is no need to put it in later generations, but now the cost of each piece of porcelain is several hundred guan!
But these six pieces of porcelain finally allowed him to win the decisive battle without any doubt.

Another point, with the successful experiment of this last piece of porcelain, once the technology reaches the point of consummation.Then another most important porcelain on Chinese porcelain - blue and white porcelain can also be fired.At the same time more colored porcelain is no longer a dream.

It's a pity that he is preparing to take the imperial examination.But if you don't have the rights in your hands and master this kind of technology, to use an ugly metaphor, it's like a beautiful girl being stripped naked and thrown into a group of robbers' dens.

Thinking of this, he sighed.Then he looked back at Zheng Silang and asked, "Your Excellency, do you want to send someone to compare this piece of porcelain with yours?"

Zheng Silang was also staring at this piece of porcelain in a daze.

Under the sunlight, this porcelain emits a crystal clear luster.The shape is elegant and smooth, just like a beautiful girl, showing her beautiful figure to everyone.

It is this shape and color, which is already amazing.

Yet this is a part of the porcelain.

There is also a beautiful pattern on it, a green pine, and it is powerful.The branches are painted in glaze red, which is more realistic.There is a small deer running in the pine tree, and beside the small deer is a plum blossom in full bloom.

In the distance, two white cranes are dancing.

Perhaps Wang Hua's painting skills have been criticized by many people. Unlike traditional painting skills, he pays more attention to lifelikeness.It may be worthwhile to put it on the picture.But if this kind of realism is placed on porcelain, the effect will be different.

Under the light, it seems that the deer and the two white cranes are living on the porcelain vase.

Not only that, but even the folds of a few stones painted in blue and white, the few clumps of grass on the ground, and the tiny pine needles on the pine trees are clearly visible one by one.

Behind this piece of porcelain are the other nine pieces of porcelain that the two companies competed with. Of course, these nine pieces of porcelain are also amazing works.However, this piece of porcelain is placed among the ten pieces of porcelain. Although it is not as large as the porcelain with Hu Feng painted by Wang and the Ding porcelain of Zheng's family, it gives people an illusion that it is the emperor. !
Magnificent, rich, majestic, all the praises that can be thought of are not enough to express it.

Zheng Silang is well-informed, but when has he seen such porcelain.

He just stood there, groaning like everyone else.

Wang Hua asked again: "Zheng Silang, this is the last piece of porcelain fired by the boy, do you want them to judge again?"

Zheng Silang shook his head, sighed, cupped his hands and said, "Erlang is so talented, I lost."

Not to mention that Wu Zetian was watching from the sidelines, Wu Zetian didn't come today, and the people he invited didn't dare to say that he won this competition.Especially facing the last piece of porcelain, how can it be said that the four pieces of porcelain he brought surpassed this piece of porcelain.Do real people don't want any face when they are alive?

Now that Zheng Silang had conceded defeat, Wang Hua came to Yu and Du's family, looked at Du Rui and said, "When will you come back with me to be your maid?"

Hearing Wang Hua's question, everyone woke up from the porcelain.They looked at Wang Hua and Du Yu's family with great interest.

Everyone basically knows the bets for this competition.

In fact, many people feel shameless towards the Du family. Although it is said that human nature is greedy, it cannot be made so obvious.

Now it finally came to a good end.

So everyone focused their attention on the instigator, Du Rui, the young lady of the Du family.

When Du Rui heard that Huarong turned pale, she threw herself into Du Peng's arms and burst into tears.

Du Peng had no choice but to look at Zheng Silang, implying that you should smooth things over.

Zheng Silang turned his head, pretended not to see, and was willing to admit defeat. You didn't have good intentions, or did you want to gain some benefits by following me?
Du Peng had no choice but to beg Wang Hua, cupped his hands, and said in embarrassment: "Cough, cough, that, that, Erlang, it's a mistake, okay?"

Wang Hua shook his head and said, "Uncle, if I lose today's competition, I tell you that I did something wrong. If you don't want half of the porcelain kiln in the boy's house, will it work?"

Du Peng was speechless.

Wang Hua said again: "Uncle, think about it again, no matter what your thoughts were when you wanted to marry your little lady to me, I still thank you for your appreciation in my heart. Later, my family fell into poverty, although Mencius I once said that poverty cannot be moved, power cannot be subdued, and wealth cannot be promiscuous. Only a real gentleman can do it. But how many people can really do it? Even if you divorced, it is also human nature. The kid’s family background is not very good. The whole family suffers from hunger and cold. It doesn’t matter to the kid now that they have retired, but how will it affect my mother and sisters? Your little lady and Yu Jiasanlang still sarcasm, so The kid only refuted a few words. This is not a deep hatred."

"Yes, the boy used some disgraceful methods to deal with Wang Shen and Zhang Zhi, which made the boy feel ashamed and disturbed. But that's different, they killed first, and then they haven't let my family go. So the boy is Some tricks have been used. But what has it to do with your family? It’s just that the children had some quarrels. Uncle? Look at you, Zhang Zhi and the old man of the Yu family have joined forces to drive up the price of the land. Why did you buy these fields? It’s not used to benefit your own family, but to help the poor in the village, so it’s kind of a good deed. But your behavior, is this still a gentleman’s deed?”

"Uncle, if it wasn't for the boy's talent and luck and not being stupid, think about it, how old is the boy, and what are the young gentlemen in your family doing when he is at the age of the boy! You have the nerve to join the Zheng family and join forces Attack me. The Zheng family in Xingyang, the Du family in Gongxian County, and the Yu family in Gongxian County are such powerful forces. If the emperor hadn't heard about this and rushed over, I guess the kid won the game today, and you guys would be born. Swallow it alive."

Asked politely, Du Peng was speechless.

Wang Hua said again: "Uncle, my boy is still the same sentence, no matter how much money is useful, as long as it is enough to spend. No matter how much clothes are good, as long as it is enough to wear. With the financial resources of your family, is it not enough for your family's expenses?" Yes. Or you want to earn more property to pass on to your descendants, but have you thought about it, if your descendants are unfilial, no matter how much property you earn, will they be defeated?"

Speaking of this, he pointed to Zheng Silang and said: "The reason why the Zheng family is called a family is because there are outstanding people from generation to generation. It’s not goods, how can it be used as a bet?”

Originally he wanted to say that she is not your servant, but your daughter, but Wu Zetian was at the side, and he was afraid that she might misunderstand, so he didn't dare to say it.

After the lesson was over, Wang Huacai said: "Okay, let's expose this matter, I hope you will take care of yourself next time."

Originally, I wanted to tease them for a few days, but considering that Wu Zetian and the others were watching the incident, let them go.

Hearing this sentence, Du Peng's old face turned red with embarrassment, wondering if he agreed with this sentence in his heart, and kept nodding his head.

But Yu and Du's parents finally breathed a sigh of relief. If the boy didn't let him go, and brought Du Rui back to the Wang family, and became a maid every day, even they themselves didn't know how it would end.

After listening to Wang Hua's words, the others also felt admiration.Who said this boy has a small stomach?It's just that he doesn't want to be a good person!

Only then did Wang Hua turn around, picked up the underglaze three-color vase, came to Wu Zetian, and said, "Your Majesty, I presented this to the Emperor."

Wu Zetian had seen it a long time ago, and there were eight big characters written on it, good fortune is like the East China Sea, longevity is equal to the sky, and at the same time, this is also the porcelain of the king. Who would dare to use this sentence except himself?Who dares to use this piece of porcelain!However, she also likes this porcelain vase very much. Besides seeing such a gorgeous colored vase for the first time, there are cranes, deer, and pine patterns on it, which itself has the meaning of prosperity, Changchun, and longevity.She nodded with a smile, and waved for the eunuch to accept.

Wang Hua picked up the Junhong flower pot again, came to Li Xian, and said, "I also wish the crown prince and the imperial concubine, just like this purple red porcelain, just like flowers, and have a happy relationship." , loving and white-headed."

This analogy can also make sense.After all, this kind of purple red porcelain has a rose red color, so it can be said that it looks like a flower.Moreover, the two couples have been terrified for decades. If they hadn't encouraged each other, they would have driven this powerful mother crazy.Li Xian accepted it happily, but didn't dare to say anything.

Wang Hua picked up the third piece of porcelain, the Ru porcelain, and came to Di Renjie, saying, "Old man, this piece of porcelain is very similar to sapphire. A gentleman is like jade, and this is given to you by the boy."

Appreciating him as a gentleman, Di Renjie hesitated for a moment, but also accepted it.

The fourth piece of porcelain was the small pot. Before Wang Hua could speak, Li Gu'er held it high in his arms.

The corner of Wang Hua's mouth twitched, but the words did not come out.He picked up the fifth piece of porcelain, came to Zhang Yizhi, and said: "This is a flower cup. Zhang Qing is as beautiful as a flower. This is a special gift for you."

If you don't remember the guess, the Zhang brothers will be in charge of the court in the next few years, and you don't have the foundation of Song Jing. These two villains can't offend you. Besides, he helped me today, and now I give him a small flower cup. It's not flattery either.

Now Wang Hua has no power or power, but because of the sensations he caused time and time again, especially in the face of the two great families' unyielding and unyielding resistance, he has become a model of folk Qingliu.Zhang Yizhi was also very happy to give it to Zhang Yizhi in front of so many people, not to mention this exquisite porcelain, just a random gift.Zhang Yizhi happily accepted it, and said, "Erlang, thank you."

The sixth item was the big bottle. He held it in front of Li Kaigu and said, "May the general be victorious in all battles in the future, and protect the people of Dazhou from foreign invasion."

This piece of porcelain has a strong Hu style, and another feature, big!maximum.Although Wang Hua put it in the last place, if Li Kaigu were to choose randomly among these six pieces of porcelain, he would still choose this piece of porcelain.What's more, so many important people came here today, I didn't expect that I could still get this child's gift, so I happily patted Wang Hua's shoulder and said, "Thank you so much, when you arrive in Luoyang, don't forget, if you don't get drunk, you won't return. "

Wang Hua's face wrinkled, Ganqing still hasn't forgotten to drink.The next time I really go to Luoyang, I have to pay attention, this General Li may be a wine barrel, don't let him put himself on the ground.

Six pieces of porcelain are given to six people, which is just right.Everyone nodded again.

But there was one person who was upset, Xiao Yuzhen said in a low voice: "Why is there no one from my brother?"

Don't say she wants it, my brother has a good relationship with you, but why not?
Wang Hua came in front of Li Longji and said: "My son, although I came from a humble background, I have been with him several times, and I respect his character and demeanor very much. But today there is really no way to distribute the porcelain. Next time, I will burn more I asked someone to bring the two pieces of porcelain to Luoyang and give them to the prince as an apology."

Li Longji smiled slightly and said, "It's okay."

Seeing that he was done with his work, Wu Zetian said, "Wang Xiaoer, your business is over, go back and clean up, let's go to Shendu tomorrow."

What is there to do in Luoyang at this time?

Wang Hua didn't dare to question, Shi Li said yes.

Wu Zetian rushed to Zheng Silang, who was still standing there in a daze, and said, "Zheng Jiasilang, come here."

Zheng Silang came over, see.

Wu Zetian said: "Mianli, you go back and tell your grandfather that I am very satisfied with what he has done."

Zheng Silang was even more taken aback when he heard this. Since he is satisfied, why did you bring so many people to defend the young man of the Wang family?But then his eyes lit up, and he said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wu Zetian looked at Wang Hua again, and saw that he was thinking first, and then showed a helpless look on his face.Knowing that he also understood, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Let's drive."

Di Renjie wanted to talk to the little guy at first, but thought that the emperor would let him go to Luoyang, so he held back his words and waited for him to go to Luoyang.

Following the issuance of this decree, a group of ministers, royals and relatives began to leave Qinggang Ridge, and the guards who came to guard also left, leaving trails of dust and smoke on the avenue.Gradually these hundreds of people disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

It's just that when Li Bao'er was about to leave, he raised the small pot and shook it to him, probably as a gesture.Finally also left.

Wang Hua watched them go away, then turned around, and said to the clansmen who were still standing there in a daze, "Let's go back too."

Seeing the people from the two families leave, the crowd was still discussing, but they also left in twos and threes.After a while, under the Qinggang Ridge, there was nothing but a mess on the ground, which was still witnessing the grand event that happened just now.
