Chapter 437
"He had an extreme preference for red all his life, and this Ming Hongwu underglaze red Three Friends of Winter pattern plum vase first appeared in his hands."
"Later, it was passed to his son, Zhu Di."
"This is an extremely precious and cherished item; it passed through two emperors."
"Finally, it fell into the hands of Princess Ancheng. It can be completely said that Princess Ancheng was a daughter Zhu Di extremely loved."
"Maybe everyone feels that such a statement still cannot confirm the reason why the Ming Hongwu underglaze red Three Friends of Winter pattern plum vase fell into the hands of Princess Ancheng."
"Then we have to mention another person here."
"His name is Song Sheng."
"He is also Princess Ancheng's father-in-law."
"Song Sheng had followed Zhu Yuanzhang since the founding of the country, made repeated military achievements, and was famous. He was successively conferred various official titles and general positions. Even Zhu Yuanzhang admired his talent and married two princesses to him."
"After Zhu Di ascended the throne, Song Sheng's status was still very precious. In order to win over the other party and even express his great imperial grace, Zhu Di married his two daughters to his two sons respectively, in exchange for his fourteen generations of loyalty."
"For such a court official, Zhu Di would absolutely not marry a daughter he didn't like to the other party's son; if he were to marry, it would inevitably be the most precious princess."
"And the Hongwu underglaze red Three Friends of Winter pattern plum vase represents two emperors and witnessed the prosperity of two emperors, so it would inevitably fall into the Song family."
"Perhaps... this was not an item the emperor gave to his daughter, but an item the emperor gave to the Song family."
Fang Yang's explanation suddenly raised the importance of the Hongwu underglaze red Three Friends of Winter pattern plum vase.
It made everyone listen in a daze.
Not an item rewarded to his beloved daughter, but instead, an item of two emperors gifted to his most trusted minister?
Although they didn't understand some things very well, from the words Fang Yang said, they could see how two emperors trusted a general, and how this general guarded the territory and protected the country for his monarch.
Perhaps from the eyes of modern people, such things as marriage alliances are like treating women as commodities.
But in that dynasty at that time, it didn't seem to be an incomprehensible thing.
Bai Guang had been afraid to interrupt, but at this time, he suddenly asked cautiously: "On the couch, how can others sleep soundly? Wouldn't the emperor be wary of the powerful General Song, and even want to get rid of them?"
There were quite a few narrow-minded emperors in history.
"This has to mention that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were broad-minded people." Fang Yang said with a smile: "Although every emperor had some problems, they also had very good qualities that are worthy of us people today to continue to learn from."
"Actually, during Zhu Yuanzhang's reign, his personality was very suspicious. Ministers often slandered each other, and many people lost their lives for no reason. Among these people, there were quite a few loyal ministers."
"Song Sheng had a high reputation and status, so he was envied by others, framed by others, and his official position was lowered."
266. Two-way rush, stop digging and come and get regularized!
"But even so, Song Sheng had no influence. He trained troops and resisted foreign invasions, excellently completing every task the court gave him. Not only was his official position restored, but his power was even greater than before."
"Ming Chengzu Zhu Yuanzhang trusted him very much, but sometimes it was inevitable that he couldn't rest assured, so every time he completed a task, he would try every means to reward him with gold, silver, and jewelry, and promote him, just to prevent the other party from having disloyal intentions towards the court."
"It is precisely because of this inability to rest assured that he used the most common means to stabilize the other party, marrying his daughter to him, and it was even marrying two daughters to him at once."
"Zhu Yuanzhang was like this, and Zhu Di was also like this."
"Suspicion is actually a common problem of emperors. After all, standing in a high position, who wouldn't worry about someone taking their position? Unless it's those who are not interested in the emperor's position at all."
"And emperors who are not suspicious are rare; if there are, they are also short-lived people."
Everyone listened to these explanations and couldn't help but nod.
It is precisely because they understand that emperors are some suspicious people that the trust given to General Song Sheng is even more precious.
An emperor who can trust his ministers, and the minister does not fail the trust.
This is simply a two-way rush!
【Popularity】 +1+1+1+1.
——【I feel that being an emperor is really difficult; there are too many things that need to be weighed and considered. If it were in the present, Zhu Yuanzhang and General Song Sheng would definitely be comrades who have a very good relationship and can entrust their backs to each other.】
——【They were really quite good; in ancient times, being able to reach this point is very amazing. With Song Sheng's power, if he wanted to rebel at that time, it would have been an easy thing. After all, his power was already monstrous at that time, and the legal rules and regulations at that time wouldn't be as perfect as they are now; it mainly depended on the human heart.】
——【The problem is, isn't this the tomb of Princess Ancheng and her Imperial Son-in-Law? Shouldn't we be discussing these two people?】
——【Don't be limited to one person; we must have a big picture view. What we are discussing is naturally the entire social environment and the significance of the entire background at that time.】
——【Yes, and until now, we are still not very familiar with Princess Ancheng and her Imperial Son-in-Law. Don't you think discussing their father and grandfather is more fragrant?】
——【Yes, I think with the education of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, and Song Sheng, the couple must be quite good. After all, being able to marry means they are all people with a big picture view.】
——【Think about the history shown in today's TV dramas; it's completely wearing the skin of history, but actually it's just falling in love. It disgusts me to death. Don't TV dramas often appear where those princesses who marry far away elope for love, swear to death not to marry for love, and shout 'long live love'? What is all this? Is it that they can't live without love?】
Fang Yang saying this, actually the whole thing is almost over.
He took a deep breath, and the cameraman next to him immediately handed him a bottle of mineral water.
At the same time, when handing over the mineral water, he also gave him a thumbs up.
It meant that what Fang Yang said was very good.
Fang Yang finished drinking the water, and only then did he have time to notice what the situation was like beside him.
Only then did he discover that when he was saying those words, many people had gathered around him unknowingly.
These people were the archaeological experts and artifact experts who came out of the tomb.
I don't know how long they had been listening here.
Although such a scene was not the first time, Fang Yang still found it hard to get used to it until now.
After all, these people were once existences Fang Yang couldn't reach, so how could he know that one day he would turn from a plain dirt-digger into a national treasure-like figure?
"Well spoken!"
The leading artifact expert took the lead in clapping, and his gaze looking at Fang Yang was even more flashing with excitement.
What Fang Yang said, there are many documents they have seen from other places, and even content that hasn't been released on the internet.
Only these people know!
However, the words Fang Yang just said, although he had his own understanding, could stand up to verification, and some content was very true.
I don't know where Fang Yang knew these things from.
But one point is undeniable.
That is, Fang Yang is really very amazing.
Through the live broadcast before, they had a certain understanding of Fang Yang, but they were far from feeling this point directly standing in front of Fang Yang.
They listened to what Fang Yang said and couldn't help but be fascinated by it.
"You know so much; are you interested in working with us for a period of time? Don't worry, there is a salary, and it will definitely be much easier than driving an excavator and running around the country."
The local Culture Bureau director couldn't help but invite Fang Yang, but he was soon refused by Fang Yang.
If he really went to the Culture Bureau to work, I'm afraid many people would be disappointed by this, and Fang Yang was not very interested in staying in the same place.
He still likes to run around; only such a life is more suitable for him.
Seeing the Culture Bureau director looking at him with expectant eyes, Fang Yang smiled: "I have been to many places, and people in every place will invite me to work locally. However, there is still a lot I need to learn, and I don't know very much."
"I like the moment of digging out treasures; this makes me feel that my life seems to have meaning. I believe netizens also very much hope to see me dig out more treasures. I will carry the excavator career to the end!"
Fang Yang said this sentence to the Culture Bureau director in front of him, and at the same time, he also said it to the people who were watching this live broadcast.
I hope that after arriving at the next city, no one will invite him to work locally anymore.
After all, he feels very embarrassed to refuse others, and the people who are refused will also be very embarrassed.
The other party already said he was going to carry the excavator career to the end; if he forced it again, it wouldn't be good.
Although the Culture Bureau director felt that driving an excavator was a very unpromising thing, and also felt that working in the Culture Bureau was an iron rice bowl, the Fang Yang in front of him was different from the people who drove excavators in the traditional sense.
He can dig out treasures, and he digs out treasures all over the world; such a person is not someone he can keep.
Next to him, Bai Guang looked at Fang Yang and felt that Fang Yang was simply too handsome.
He was very handsome when telling stories.
He was also very handsome when refusing people.
I don't know if he is short of a little brother; serving tea and pouring water is also fine.
267. Golden branches and jade leaves of the Ming Dynasty, filling the vacancy of the era!
Bai Chang was very enthusiastic; lunch was still delivered to Fang Yang's hands voluntarily.
Fang Yang could see that the other party was deliberately trying to please him.
There are many people who want to please him.
There are all kinds of identities.
This was not the first time Fang Yang had encountered it.
He had no surprise and no touch.
Because the time was still early enough, it was not even one o'clock.
Fang Yang, under the expectant eyes of others, decided to continue digging.
