Chapter 1430 Jingjiatang
"Old man Sakamoto asked me to go to Kyoto and see his collection, do you want to go?" Mr. Ma asked.
"If we are in Kyoto, I would rather go to Jingjia Hall..."
"Yes, Jingjia Hall's zodiac-changing celestial eye is known as the best in the world, and everyone here can be ranked first. Second, there is also a Longguang Temple, but that one is dedicated to Buddha. Most people can't see it. Do you want to see that?"
"No, why can't you get out of the kiln? Jingjiatang, "Qi Pian only belongs to me" Cao, a scholar is considered a great person here.”
"This is really not a small tone. What scholar is so arrogant? Which dynasty does he come from?"
"In modern times, Naito Honan, we can only blame ourselves for not living up to expectations. What a pity! Alas! "
"I haven't been to Jingjia Hall, and I know that the Yaobian Tianmu there is the best in the world. I don't know anything else. Can you tell me about it?"
"There is a song? The poem, 'The harp and the sword float in the sky for hundreds of years, Eight thousand volumes are scattered across the sea and come from the same source; a majestic pavilion remains in the sky, and this large collection of documents in the southeast is talking about the four great book collectors in the late Qing Dynasty. "
"The Qin and Sword in the poem refers to the Qu family in Changshu. Iron Qin and Bronze Sword Tower; Song Dynasty , refers to the Lu family's Kansong Library in Gui'an; Baqianjuan refers to the Ding family's Eight Thousand Volumes Building in Qiantang; Haiyuan refers to the Yang family's Haiyuan Pavilion in Shandong. These four libraries are known as the four major private book collections in the late Qing Dynasty. .”
"That 'a majestic pavilion remains in the sky, and a large collection of documents in the southeast.' is talking about Tianyi Pavilion, right?"
"Yes, this poem talks about all the books in the four major libraries. were lost, only Tianyi Pavilion left some seeds of ancient books to the country. In the end, only this There are a lot of documents.”
“Oh, it’s really a pity...”
“Let’s just talk about this Kansong Tower. The collector is called Lu Xinyuan. The Lu family has been there since Lu Xinyuan’s father. After collecting books, he came to him and relied on suppressing the Taiping Army and building the Fujian Salt Transport Road. After he resigned, he built a "Qianyuan" next to the Lotus Village in the east of Gui'an City. In the garden, he built a "Qian Song Tower", a "Shiwanjuan Tower", and a "Shouxian Pavilion" with books on the third floor. The number is as many as 150,000 volumes.”
“Lu Xinyuan not only collected books, but also edited them. Yao Zongkan, Dai Wang, Shi Buhua, Yu Jinshu, Wang Zhulu, and Ling Xia studied in the countryside and were known as the "Seven Talents of Tiao Shang". During the Tongzhi period, they compiled seventy-two volumes of "Tangwen Supplements" and "Tangwen Supplements" sixteen volumes. Volume. He is also proficient in the study of epigraphy and has written numerous works. ”
"Lu Xinyuan had four sons. In the 23rd year of Guangxu's reign, the four brothers separated their families. The silk factory in Shanghai belonged to the eldest son, the bank went to the second son, and the pawnshop in his hometown of Huzhou was left to the third son. The fourth son was too young to manage money, so he will not be able to manage it for the time being. Participate in the division of the family. Although the ancient books, paintings and antiques in Lu Xinyuan's inheritance were not divided up, they had no intention to manage them and lacked funds to maintain them, so they began to fall into decay. "
"In the middle of the 20th century, the islanders began to dump rayon and various cheap Japanese goods to China. The national capitalists were affected, and a large number of raw silk companies and silk reeling factories closed down. In order to cope with the dilemma, the Lu family , came up with the idea of collecting books in the Song Tower. "
"In 1904, Lao Dalu Shufan commissioned himself to study in Japan. Shu's cousin is looking for a buyer, hoping to sell his father's entire collection at once to avoid irreparable losses in the future caused by sporadic transfers. "Kansong Tower is famous in the Japanese academic and cultural circles, and many Japanese people covet it. When the news came out, Han Shimada, a Chinese bibliography scholar who was working as a librarian at the Mitsubishi Foundation's Jinggado Bunko, heard the news. After that, he strongly encouraged the owner of the library, Yanosuke Iwasaki, to purchase them all, and was ordered to go to Huzhou for inspection. "
"In 1906, Han Shimada arrived in Huzhou, accompanied by Lu Shufan, and inspected them one by one. The collections of the books in the Song Tower and the Shouxian Pavilion were inspected, and the detailed types and volumes were recorded, and a report was written and sent back to China. ”
"In the spring of the next year, Jingjiatang library director Shigeno Sarisai went to Shanghai in person to discuss price, delivery, transportation and other issues with Lu Shufan, and finally signed a secret contract. In June 1907, a small fire Three tugs were attached to the stern of the ship and sailed into Huzhou, quietly loading all of Lu Xinyuan's suicide notes. Sailed back to Shanghai overnight and transported it here by Japanese mail ship."
"How much did the little devil give them?" Mr. Ma was a little annoyed when he talked about the history of the loss of ancient cultural relics in modern times, but Anyone who works in this industry is full of humiliation, depression and anger.
“One hundred and twenty thousand oceans, Yanosuke Iwasaki took over 4,172 types of Kasong Pavilion, Shiwanjuan Pavilion and Shoxian Pavilion, a total of more than 40,000 volumes of rare engravings from the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. From then on, These exquisite works have become the largest private collection in the island country. The collection of the library.”
“Now the Jingjiatang Library has become a special library for collecting ancient books in the island country. "Sequel" statistics, the museum There are a total of 200,000 Chinese books and 80,000 Japanese books, as well as more than 6,000 ancient works of art. "
"Among them, the Song Dynasty Yaobian Tenmu is designated as a national treasure of Japan. Zhan, Yuan Dynasty Zhao Mengfu and Zhongfeng Ming This ruler slip is from "Mao Shi Zhengyi Shanshu Edition" published in the ninth year of Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty, a fragment of the wood version of the Tang manuscript "Shuowen Jiezi", a fragment of the "Spring and Autumn Classics" manuscript published in the Heian Dynasty of the island country, and a fragment of the "Collected Commentary of Historical Records" published in the Northern Song Dynasty. Wait;"
"The key cultural properties to be protected include the Song version of the fragmentary version of "Zhou Li" with large Chinese characters in Shu, the Song version of "Shuowen Jiezi" in eight volumes, the Song version of the Hubei Tiquan Tea and Salt Department's publication of "Hanshu" in forty volumes, the Song version of "Tang Dynasty" "Book" in 90 volumes, Song edition of "Waitai Secret Recipes" in 42 volumes, Song edition of "Collected Works of Li Taibai" in 12 volumes, etc."
"The collection of Chinese books also includes the Yuan version of "Tokyo Menghua Lu", the Qing copy of "Guangya Shuyi", etc."
"Before the acquisition of Lu's collection, Jingjiatang only had more than 30,000 volumes of books. After more than 200 kinds of old engravings from the Song and Yuan Dynasties were put into the library, Jingjiatang became a world-famous library overnight. "< br>
“Judging from the "Illustrated Catalog of Song and Yuan Editions of Jingjiatang Library" published later, among the total number of old engravings from the Song and Yuan Dynasties collected by the building, the Song Editions of the Song Dynasty House accounted for 80% of the total. Eight, the Yuan version accounted for 81% of the total."
"After that, Jingjiatang did not stop publishing Chinese books. To search for books, Nagasawa Nobuya, the island nation’s leading modern philologist at the time, was dispatched. With the funding of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the island’s Ministry of Culture, he stayed in China for six years and continued to collect more than 300 rare ancient books, including the Jinling small-print version of " "Compendium of Materia Medica", and a copy of "Qianjin Prescription" published in the Song Dynasty."
After hearing this, Mr. Ma couldn't help but sigh: "Damn it, compared to these, the loss of the special Yaobian Tianmu Zhan is only a small loss!"
Zhou Zhi shook his head: "Lu Xinyuan once said, 'Scholar-officials should pay attention to their ethics. The world is full of dangers and people's livelihoods are suffering. You can be at ease inside and outside, and you can stay in the first place and wait for the later, so as to live up to the will of the innate prophets.' And with this intention, I built my final book collection. The building was named 'Shou Xian Pavilion'."
"I'm afraid he himself didn't expect that his descendants could neither stay at home nor wait for others, and they were less than thirteen after his death. Years ago, all the books he had collected through his whole life fell into the hands of the Japanese."
