The little boy looked at Zhou Ye with a look of hope in his eyes.

He was very hungry for knowledge, but in this period, in this era, knowledge was in the hands of the upper classes, and they could not reach it at all.

The current knowledge is carried on the bamboo slips.

I don't know how many bamboo slips are needed for a book.

Zhou Ye looked at the little boy's look full of hope, and his heart couldn't help but soften.

"You want to learn?"

"Yes," the little boy nodded.

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for triggering the hidden quest - preaching and receiving karma, preaching and receiving karma, immeasurable merits, lighting the lamp of wisdom, guiding the lamp of hope, task requirements, teaching Wang Xiaohu knowledge, rewarding - and Shibi".

"Wo Cao", seeing this reward, Zhou Ye almost didn't jump up.

And the Clan's Bi?

Really fake.

He's Bi, it's really hard to think about it.

He's Bi is the most famous jade in Chinese history, also known as He's Bi, Jing Yu, Jing Hong, Jing Bi, Hebi, and Hepu. It is a treasure of the world.

It is a valuable material for carving seals, it is said that during the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang once carved a jade seal for Emperor Ping of the Han Dynasty, which was given the plus number "An Han Gong".

When it was first excavated, it was called "Wei", and since then, the rough stone of the jade that has not been processed is called "Wei".

Since the Heshi Bi has been lost, it is impossible for people today to know what the real Heshi Bi looked like, and can only be imagined through the description in the limited written records.

However, judging from the story of Qin Shi Huang using He's bi to make the imperial seal, compared with the unearthed conventional cultural relics, at least in appearance, there should be a significant difference. According to preliminary estimates, the thickness of the Heshi bi is at least 10 centimeters, and it is not the ring-shaped jade worn by ancient Confucian scholars.

It is even more likely that Heshibi is just a simple and rough processed jade. At the same time, due to legend, the Heshi Bi was made into a national seal by Qin Shi Huang.

With the change of dynasties, the imperial seal is said to have been lost after the Tang Dynasty, and the original style of the Heshi Bi is basically impossible to know.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, many vassal states had their own treasures. According to the "Warring States Policy": "Zhou has misfortune, Song has green, Liang has suspense, and Chu has harmony." "Hepu is He's Bi, Pu is jade that has not been pondered.

Now this piece of beautiful jade is in the hands of Qin Shi Huang.

It was made into a jade seal.

The earliest records of He's Bi can be found in books such as "Han Feizi" and "New Preface", and the plots are roughly the same.

It is said that in the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a jade expert named Bian He in the Chu State, and he got a piece of jade in Jingshan. Bian He took the jade to see King Chu Li, and King Li ordered the jade worker to check it, and the jade worker said that it was just a stone. King Li was furious and cut off Bian He's left foot for the crime of bullying the king. King Li died, King Wu ascended the throne, Bian He took the jade to see King Wu again, King Wu ordered Yugong to check, Yugong still said that it was just a stone, and Bian He lost his right foot because of this. King Wu died, King Wen ascended the throne, Bian He hugged Puyu and cried bitterly for three days and three nights under Chu Mountain, the tears dried up, and then blood flowed out. When King Wen learned of this, he sent someone to ask why, and Bian He said: I am not crying that my feet have been cut off, but that Baoyu has been treated as a stone, and the loyal people have been treated as bullies, and they will be punished and humiliated without guilt. So, King Wen ordered someone to cut open this piece of jade, and saw that it was really a rare jade, and named it He's Bi.

This is the emergence of He's Bi.

Later, in the Warring States Period, King Zhao Huiwen obtained a piece of precious jade that was originally lost in the Chu State - "Heshi Bi".

This matter was known to King Qin Zhao, and he sent an envoy to King Zhao to say that he was willing to exchange fifteen cities for "He's Bi".

So there was a story of "returning to Zhao".

Then it was extended to "reconcile with each other".

I have to say that Lin Xiangru is really powerful, with courage, courage, and wisdom.

Later, when King Qin found out about this, it was too late to regret it. If you want to send troops to attack Zhao, Zhao has made military preparations, and I am afraid that you will not be able to win.

In the end, the king of Qin was very angry, but at this time, even if he killed Lin Xiangru, he would not be able to get He's bi, but would make enemies with Zhao, so he let him go back to Zhao.

This incident is recorded in detail in Sima Qian's "Historical Records".

But later, He's Bi was still owned by the Qin State, and there is no record of when and how it was owned by the Qin State.

In the tenth year of the reign of King Qin, Li Si mentioned in the "Book of Exhortations to Guests": "Your Majesty has sent the jade of Kunshan to Kunshan, and there is a treasure of easy-going and harmony. "

"The treasure of easy-going and harmony" refers to the two famous treasures of the time, "the pearl of Suihou" and "the bi of the Heshi".

It is very likely that Zhao State was afraid of the strength of Qin State as a last resort, and gave Heshi Bi to Qin State.

Since then, records about He's Bi have been common, and most of them believe in the records of books such as "Han Feizi" and "New Preface". For example, Fu Xian's "Jade Fu" of the Western Jin Dynasty said: "When it dives into the Jingye, it is ignored, and the public regards it as a stone, and the only one knows it in Bianzi." "There are more records about Heshibi in Tang Dynasty poems. The great poet Li Bai's "Ancient Style" thirty-six has "Hold the jade into the Chu State, see what the ancients have heard." The good treasure is finally abandoned, and the three sacrifices are made in vain".
