Chapter 488: Founding Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty
After the host said the words, the people who knew the inside story became serious. Among them were those who were interested in Chongbao and those who were curious.
People who don’t know the inside story actually don’t find it strange at this moment, because most people had suspicion in their hearts before, and realized that something was wrong in the spring auction in the new century.
Hearing what the host said at this moment made them feel like they had confirmed it.
In short, everyone's attention was on the host for a moment, to be precise, on the big screen behind him.
The host didn't say much nonsense and said directly: "Everyone, today's market items are also one of the most precious and historically valuable and meaningful items in the ten years since our New Century Auction was founded, and it can even be said to be one of them!"
As his tone gradually became excited, the host finally raised his hand and pointed to the large screen behind him and shouted: "The imperial jade plaque of Liu Xiu, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was engraved with dragon patterns on one side and small characters on the other side. The content was what Liu Xiu said, telling the story of his ancestor Liu Bang's treasure in troubled times, so he believed that he had the responsibility to inherit the Han Dynasty. In the end, he succeeded and did not disappoint his ancestor Liu Bang and the Han Dynasty!" www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm
There was a bang.
With the host's words and the photos displayed on the big screen behind him, the entire auction venue instantly exploded.
All antiques that are related to the emperor are of high value. What appears at this moment is the thing from the founding emperor Liu Xiu, who is very famous in history, and even has written content on it, telling a story or history.
Liu Xiu, this emperor is really as famous as his name. He is extremely famous among the general public. He is also a famous handsome emperor and an almost perfect emperor.
Of course, his most famous nicknames are naturally the "Great Magician" and "Son of the Plane".
These two nicknames can actually be summed up in the fact that Liu Xiu's luck is really good. Although he has very strong abilities, he has to admit that his luck is really beyond ordinary people.
Just like the words Zhao Zheng often joked with Chen Jing, saying that he suspected that he was God's illegitimate son. In comparison, Liu Xiu is God's son. He who doesn't have an illegitimate son is the real "Son of Heaven".
Why do you say so?
To give the simplest and most well-known example, it is the Battle of Kunyang, which had a great influence on the Xin Dynasty established by Wang Mang, and was also a famous historical battle to win the more with few.
The specific process is too complicated, and this is roughly as follows in the words of netizens' jokes.
During the Battle of Kunyang, the army of Wang Mang Xin Dynasty was about 430,000, while the army where Liu Xiu was located was only more than 17,000. The two armies were facing each other. With such a huge gap in strength, how many people could think that the party where Liu Xiu was located could win a great victory or even almost defeat the Wang Mang Xin Dynasty through this battle.
The process of winning is indeed a bit mysterious. It is said that on the night before the two armies were preparing to start the war, very extreme weather suddenly appeared, with heavy rain, strong wind and heavy fog, which affected the Xin Dynasty's army and was defeated by Liu Xiu. This is already mysterious enough, but there are even more mysterious statements.
That was that that night, the Xin Dynasty's army was attacked by meteorites in the military camp. Not to mention much loss, but in the eyes of the superstitious ancients, it was a disaster that caused the Xin Dynasty's army to panic. They all believed that God was helping Liu Xiu's side.
With the morale of the army being dispersed, no matter how many people were, they could not fight, so they were easily defeated by Liu Xiu.
Therefore, netizens joked that Liu Xiu used the great magic technique to summon meteorites. Some people also said that Wang Mang, whose policies were similar to modern ideas, traveled back by modern people, while Liu Xiu was the son of the plane, and specifically tried to eliminate Wang Mang, a time traveler, and restore history, so his luck was so against the will of heaven.
Of course, these great magicians, the words of time travelers and the son of the plane are more of jokes, after all, they are indeed too mysterious.
However, the Battle of Kunyang is real. Of course, there is still controversy over whether there is a meteorite impact, including in various official history books.
The "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" records the impact of meteorites, which is recorded as follows: "A meteor fell into the camp at night, and clouds fell like bad mountains on the day, and they fell in the camp, which was not as good as the ground ruler, and all officials and soldiers were tired of being buried." This is a description of the impact of meteorites in the battle of Kunyang.
The roughly means that at night, a meteor fell into the enemy camp, and during the day, a group of clouds fell into the enemy camp, and the soldiers of the court felt great horror.
However, compared with the Battle of Kunyang recorded in the "Book of Han", there is no such claim as meteorite impact, but it only records extreme weather and heavy storms.
In addition, the latest book "Zizhi Tongjian", which also abandoned the statement of meteorite impact, which shows that Sima Guang was skeptical of this incident, but he also recorded the extreme weather that defeated the New Dynasty's army, namely heavy storms.
It is precisely because the records of official history are controversial that this kind of controversy has never stopped now. Some people think that the statement of meteorite impact is too mysterious, obviously in the myth of Liu Xiu, and they don’t believe it at all. The battle in Kunyang was at most an extreme weather that helped Liu Xiu. Although it was also a manifestation of his luck, it was not as exaggerated as meteorite impact.
Some people don’t believe this, but naturally some people believe it. Others think that the Book of Later Han will not adapt the battle against the epidemic as such an important battle in Kunyang, and there is no need to talk about Liu Xiu here. After all, relying on meteorite impact to win with less sounds good.
But no matter whether the meteorite impact is true or false, it cannot be denied that Liu Xiu's own ability is covered by luck. In the specific details of the Battle of Kunyang, Liu Xiu calmly judged the situation and established correct strategies and tactics in a timely manner based on the military situation at that time, all of which showed the strength of his ability.
In short, Liu Xiu is really a very powerful and almost perfect emperor, and the great man's evaluation of him is the highest among the emperors.
Therefore, Liu Xiu's things, or those he carved, are indeed real treasures, and can almost be said to be top national treasures.
"So it's Liu Xiu." Zhao Zheng looked at the photos displayed on the big screen and said in surprise.
At this moment, the expression on Chen Jingjunlang's face was a bit complicated.
The treasure to be auctioned in the new century was not one of the twelve treasures that the treasure appraisal eye judged, which made Chen Jing feel relieved, but when he heard the content of the text recorded on the jade plaque mentioned by the host, he immediately calmed down his heart.
