My system is not decent

In the Qing Dynasty, the "Jin Ou Yonggu" cup was no longer a drinking utensil, but a symbol of praying for the eternal protection of the country and the country for generations.

"Jin Ou is forever", but the country of the Qing Dynasty is not stable

For Emperor Qianlong, "Jin Ou Yonggu" is just wishful thinking.

Not long after he supervised the completion of the "Jin Ou Yonggu" cup for the last time, the fate of the Qing Dynasty suddenly became confusing.

Beginning in 1797, there were uprisings one after another.

At first it was the White Lotus Sect, and then there was an uprising along the coast of Zhejiang and Fujian.

At that time, the rebel army repeatedly defeated the Qing army, and the southeast sea area was no longer stable;

What is even more shocking is that in 1813 the Tianli Sect uprising broke out in the north.

Some Tianli believers at that time rushed into the palace under the support of the eunuchs, and a bloody massacre ensued;

This is the prosperity of Qianlong that we see now. Most people don't know how chaotic the prosperity of that year was.

It can also be seen from this that how much of this prosperous age is blown out.

After a hundred years of peace, after the middle period of Qianlong, domestic class conflicts became sharp, and peasant uprisings were in full swing.

This made Qianlong's successor, Emperor Jiaqing, very busy.

From then on, the prosperous age of Huanghuang Kangxi and Qianlong really came to an end.

The "Jin'ou" of the Qing Dynasty was also increasingly shaken.

Until the great powers drove straight in, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement swept across most of China...

However, maybe Qianlong was not a good emperor, but he was indeed a good player.

When he was in power, he made many top art works.

Still talking about cups, he is most famous for the well-known Qianlong Twelve Flower God Cups.

Chen Wenzhe imitated it before, so naturally he won't do it now.

However, in addition to this twelve-piece set of cups, there was also a set of twelve pieces during the Qianlong period.

That is the Twelve Nobile Cups made in the Qianlong Year. Everyone knows the Twelve Nobiles, and it is a work decorated with these twelve beauties.

There are quite a few such works, such as the Twelve Gold Hairpins pastel vases and so on.

Chen Wenzhe first made a set of teacups, which are easier to make, because there is only one character on each teacup.

After finishing twelve pieces, Chen Wenzhe immediately made another pair of bottles.

It is not difficult to make two bottles, because they are big enough, but because of the layout of the characters, it is more difficult to make.

This pair of bottles is about 45cm high and the largest belly is about 23.5cm wide.

The surface area is also considered large enough to be able to create on it.

This pair of bottles is based on Qianlong's "Golden Flower Vase with Pastel Blue Glaze and Gold Painting" as the blueprint.

It is made of kaolin clay that is on the verge of depletion, and a unique glaze formula of pastels.

Plus 72 processes, pure handwork, completed in accordance with the strict standards of imperial kiln firing.

"Twelve Gold Hairpins" pastel vases, "Daiyu Burying Flowers", "Miaoyu Serving Tea", "Xiangyun Drunken Lying", "Baochai Flicking Butterflies", "Li Wan Teaching Children", "Yuanchun Visiting Relatives" and so on Classic scene.

It is ingeniously blended with "Exploring the Spring and Marrying Far Away", "Qiaojie Weaving", "Welcome to the Spring", "Xi Feng Takes Power", "Chering to the Spring", "Keqing Dressing" on a pair of melon-edge bottles.

They have different shapes, and they are regenerated in every way.

Chen Wenzhe depicted the classic artistic group portrait of Twelve Golden Hairpins with meticulous brushstrokes!

The charm, tenderness, plumpness, beauty, glamor and beauty of classical Chinese ladies are vividly expressed!

The beauty of oriental art, the beauty of nobile, the beauty of pictures, the beauty of decoration, and the beauty of craftsmanship, is interpreted to the extreme!

The paintings on it are detailed and detailed.

Bold and unconstrained, chic and elegant.

Elegant but not plain, pink but not vulgar.

The powder is soft yet elegant, lifelike but not lacking in artistic conception, fully showing the beautiful charm of pastel porcelain in the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong.

Such pastel porcelain must be more beautiful.

However, before Chen Wenzhe had made a lot of famille rose porcelain, what he is making now is blue and white.

So, after finishing this pair of vases, he turned to the production of blue and white porcelain again.

Among the Qianlong blue-and-white porcelain cups, there are still many high-quality goods, such as the Qianlong blue-and-white dragon pattern "fairness cup".

Fairness cups are very common in the antique market now.

This kind of thing is just a gimmick with strangeness, professional deception.

But this thing was really not simple in ancient times.

Justice cups were first used as wine vessels and appeared in the Yuan and Liao dynasties.

When the justice cup is filled with wine, it should only be shallow and not too full, otherwise all the wine in the cup will be leaked, and this kind of utensil is for people who are greedy for drinking;

Modern fair cups, also known as even cups, male cups, and tea seas, are already important utensils on tea banquets;

In the justice cup handed down from ancient times, there is usually an old man or a faucet standing in the center of the cup, and there is a hollow porcelain tube in the body, which passes through the small hole at the bottom of the cup;

The catchy mouth of the tube is equivalent to the height of the mole (or dragon's jaw) on the chest of the old man.

There is a hole at the connection between the head and the bottom of the cup. When pouring water into the cup, if the water level is lower than the upper mouth of the porcelain tube, the water will not leak out;

When the water level exceeds the upper opening of the porcelain tube, the water will leak light through the leakage hole at the bottom of the cup.

This kind of leaking cup is called "justice cup" among the Han people, and it is made according to the principle of siphon in physics.

The justice cup is the most fair way to hold wine, and it should only be filled shallowly, not too full, otherwise, all the wine in the cup will be leaked, and there will be no drop left.

In modern times, in order to further explore the traditional technology of ceramics, ceramic artists in modern Jingzhen made bold improvements to the "Fairness Cup".

The original cup had a faucet pointing downwards and a single decoration, and when the water contained in the cup exceeded 70% of the capacity of the cup, all the water contained in it would leak out.

The "Fairness Cup" improved through repeated experiments, with the dragon's horn facing upwards, is colorfully decorated with blue flowers and pastels, which is extremely beautiful.

And the water holding capacity has also increased from 70% to 90%.

The current "Justice Cup" is well-known both at home and abroad, and can be regarded as a high-level ceramic art treasure.

In 1982, the Workers' Daily published a report titled "'Justice Cup' sensational neon", pointing out that this cup is favored by foreign businessmen.

Now, all the tourists who go sightseeing in the Porcelain City are full of praise when they see this kind of treasure, and they are all overwhelmed by the "Fairness Cup".

Fairness, from "Book of Rites: Li Yun": "On the journey of the great way, the world is for the public."

The world belongs to everyone, fairness, objectivity, and rationality, and respect for things as they are are the most basic rules.

This kind of thinking is not only reflected in the daily life of society, but also in literature and drama, and also in the utensils of daily life.

According to legend, in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang hosted a banquet for ministers of civil and military affairs.

When he poured wine, he specially poured it full for several confidant ministers as a reward.

As for the ministers who usually like to advise and speak frankly, he is only very shallow.

Unexpectedly, things backfired, the rewarded ministers failed to drink a drop of wine, and the others enjoyed the imperial wine instead.

Things backfired, and Emperor Hongwu was very puzzled.

Only later did he know that the wine cup on the banquet was an ingenious gadget developed by the Royal Kiln Factory as a tribute, and it was called "Jiulong Cup".
