"When rouge first appeared, it was very precious. Not to mention coming from thousands of miles away from overseas, the colorant was still gold. Although the color produced was very different from gold, the cost was there, so The craftsmanship that can be matched with rouge color are basically the top craftsmanship at that time, so generally rouge purple objects must be objects with large doors." Mr. Qi couldn't help but shake his head.
"It's not just rouge purple. The reason why magenta is called rouge color is mainly because it has a slightly reddish hue after firing, which is very similar to rouge, so it got its name." Mr. Wang said: "Because the glaze is very precious. , during the Kangxi period, this color was only occasionally used in enamel painting. Craftsmen found that by adjusting the fine proportions of lead, boron flux and gold, they could obtain light pink or red-purple colors. ”
"In the enamels of the time, carmine appeared as a light red rose color, or a rich ruby-like rouge color, or a sparkling purple Su Fang color."
"We all know that the enamel-colored porcelain of the Kangxi and Yongzheng dynasties was made in Jingde and sent to Beijing to have the porcelain painted and painted by the palace manufacturing office before being fired again. The craftsmanship was the best in the world at that time, so not only Only rouge purple, as long as it is rouge water or rouge A series of items such as fat red, such as baby noodles, pink, and chili red, must be opened at a glance. It is impossible to appear in the ghost market. Even if they appear occasionally, they cannot be changed hands for a long time. situation.”
Zhou Zhi covered his mouth and laughed slyly: "What a risk, what a risk. Fortunately, this piece is from the Yongzheng period. If it were enamel, it would not be my turn."
"This thing is actually quite famous in Daliu Shu recently." Mr. Ma turned the plate over, somewhat dumbfounded: "The main reason is that this pastel longevity peach has a careless four-character cinnabar inscription on it. It's so ridiculous."< br>
"This is not nonsense." Mr. Qi said: "In fact, there were only a dozen pieces of porcelain in that batch. This issue of identification has puzzled us for a long time, but there is no record in the internal work files, so we don't know the specific ones. Cause.”
Mr. Wang scolded Mr. Ma: "It's fine if others don't know. How come you don't know either? Back then, Qi Lao and I wrote a report to the National Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee for a few pieces of this kind of porcelain in Liaoning."
"What a conscience!" Mr. Ma called out to Tianqu: "When I came back, I immediately asked all the brothers and sisters in the porcelain institute, but none of them knew anything! Later, I found out that you were in the calligraphy and painting group at the time, reporting on the management of other people's porcelain. Regarding the group, the report was suppressed and was not published nationwide!”
"Then how does your elbow know?" Mr. Wang asked rhetorically.
"Ah this..."
"Ahem..." Zhou Zhi quickly smoothed things over for Mr. Ma: "Actually, I know that this is purely a coincidence. I discovered it when I was studying the calligraphy and painting investigation report left by the two of them. That article was included in the calligraphy and painting investigation report. I guess It's over there with the porcelain set I don’t know, the calligraphy and painting team didn’t pay attention to it, and that batch of materials was not published. I asked Mr. Ma to find someone to copy it for me. I guess the seniors who kept the reports were all studying calligraphy and painting, so they really didn’t pay attention to it. Come.”
"Actually, I still have a question."
"Oh?" Several people were immediately attracted: "What's the question?"
"I wonder if people at that time had discovered the possible harm to the human body caused by the minerals in the porcelain glaze?"
"Why do you say that?" "Look, this porcelain has added glaze color to the outside of the porcelain, which is not in direct contact with the ingredients." Zhou Zhi turned the plate over again: "The inside is white, only the A small amount of pastel decoration will not have any impact on the human body in terms of ingredients. ”
"So could it be that people at that time had intentionally used underglaze paint for parts that could be in direct contact with food, and used low-temperature overglaze paint as decorative parts that were not in direct contact with food?"
"Hahaha, your idea is something we have never considered." Mr. Wang smiled and said, "But it's not reliable."
Mr. Qi said: "I think this is more due to an aesthetic relationship. The outside of the container is bright and the inside is light. It is obviously lighter than the outside. The bright inside is more in line with people's habits and aesthetics. This is one of them. In addition, When cleaning, the cleaning and scraping on the inside will be harder than on the outside, and the overglaze color will fall off more easily than the underglaze color. This is the second reason. ”
"Yes, the idea of elbows is a bit far gone." Mr. Wang said: "At least we haven't seen any records about this, and many porcelains such as wall branches, pastel enamel plates, etc. The three generations of imperial porcelain in Songshi all illustrate the ancient people's There is no taboo on using glaze for lining, and in order to strengthen it, they also specially invented the method of lightly carving first and then applying color, which not only achieves the effect of low relief on the surface and inside of the object, but also achieves the effect of fixing the color. , why invent the internal engraving process? ”
"That's right, it's a big deal." Zhou Zhi suddenly realized.
"Mr. Gu also asked me your question." Mr. Wang smiled and said: "Let me have some time to point you out. Your knowledge is a bit broad. At least in terms of science knowledge, you can surpass us old people and bosses. You pay attention to logic. Correlation, emphasis on literature and science, these are good ways of thinking.”
"However, there are some differences between science and liberal arts. Science can first put forward many conjectures and then prove them step by step. But have you ever heard that in liberal arts, there is such-and-such conjecture?"
Zhou Zhi was suddenly surprised. It seemed that such a thing was really the case, such as Goldbach's conjecture in mathematics, Model's conjecture, etc. However, it seemed that liberal arts subjects had not heard of all kinds of wild conjectures, more so in archeology and Restored on the basis of documents, even if it is a conjecture, it is a structure under extremely sufficient conditions.
There is no need for a heavy hammer to play the drum. Seeing that Zhou Zhi understood something, Mr. Wang said: "Your master said that your mind wanders, and sometimes you go too far. For example, the recent discussion about the relationship between ancient Yi script and many Neolithic talismans Contact, in fact, it is too early to say anything.”
"As for the ancient Yi script, the country currently lacks sufficient research, at least far from the level of Chinese characters. Therefore, it is difficult to be convincing when talking about its connection with Neolithic talismans without sufficient foundation. And There is even less evidence for the 'invention' that Anning Valley is the hometown of Zhuan Xu. ”

Our sect has always emphasized research over writing. After telling Mr. Wang this, Zhou Zhi realized that he was really far from his master's style, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"But Mr. Gu still approves of your research on oracle bone inscriptions, and we also approve of it. It is very solid! Especially the root analysis and research are all based on the existing data and can withstand the most rigorous Mr. Qi quickly gave me a sweet date: "It shows that you still know the importance."
"But you still have to be more academically rigorous, otherwise someone will dig it out if the situation arises. They will seize on one of your mistakes and deny everything about you." Mr. Wang earnestly educated Zhou Zhi: "Such a thing is entirely possible. , we still have to guard against subtle changes." (End of this chapter)
