Wanjuan Building is not just a building, it contains the beauty of the entire Wuhua Mountain.You know, most of the people living in this building are from the Ming Dynasty.Ming Dynasty people have the aesthetics of Ming Dynasty people.The ethos of the Ming Dynasty was extravagance.Among other things, it is enough for everyone to recall the opening poem of Jin Ping Mei, the famous first strange book.

called:

Pedestrians are gone after the luxury is gone, and the Xiaozheng does not sing and sing.

The majestic sword has no prestige, the brilliance is heavy, and the treasure piano is scattered and the gold stars are destroyed.

The jade steps are lonely and autumn dew falls, and the moon shines on the singing and dancing place at that time.

At that time, the singing and dancing people did not return, and turned into the ashes of Xiling today.

Let's not worry about what is indestructible and indestructible, let's just talk about it at that time.At that time, there were luxurious swords, zithers and zithers, moonlight on jade steps, and thousands of singing and dancing.Then you say, what kind of standards will Wu Sangui, the chief commander of the Ming Dynasty in the Pingxi Palace, build his mansion?

It must not be the standard of bumpkin Li Zicheng, right?

And the real Ming Dynasty celebrities have long had this consensus: only in the large and well-designed gardens, in the exquisite furniture and exquisite tea sets and incense sets, can the charm of elegant life be fully presented.The splendor and wealth that truly represent a person's status and taste is definitely not just a pile of real money, but must be calligraphy, famous paintings, Wenwan, strange stones and other interesting and elegant things.These, and only these, are the important criteria for judging social elites.

From this perspective, Wanjuan Building is a perfect garden for this dream.Let's not talk about the gold plate on each guest's table at the opening banquet, the fifteen or six taels of gold cups with chi and tiger patterns, the plum blossom and silver sand gongs for washing hands, the golden drop crops for gargling, and the silverware for heating. Water and fire stove - as I said just now, gold and silver are things that even nouveau riche can use, so I don't need to elaborate on this.Let’s just talk about the marble painting screen with vertical and horizontal landscapes, the small garden of pine, bamboo, plum and orchid, and the things in the secret room displayed by the prince.

It is simply a tunnel that allows people to traverse time and space.

The turquoise and rusty Yiding tripods from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the pure white and flawless jade wares from the Han Dynasty, the rhinoceros old pottery, and the famous postcards with French paintings from the Jin, Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties are all of the grand scale.There are also porcelains from Guange, Dingzhou, and Xuancheng, strange stones from Duanxi, Lingbi, and Dali, as well as carved red lacquerware from the Yongle period, and incense burners from the Xuande Dynasty... No, these are not enough, India, Burma, Persia, etc. All the good things of the dynasty are also here, and naturally, the good things of the dynasty are also here.

What was that feeling like?

How can this feeling be expressed to today's people who have long since escaped the constraints of time and space?However, if you are willing to imagine, in that era when culture, art, and taste are human beings and imprisoned by time and space, a teenage girl’s heart is shocked after seeing all this:

It is a kind of secret adventure that can never be surpassed once experienced.Even if later on, she can pack her bags and let herself go to any metropolis, any museum, the life experience of entering the depths of the private collection of the king of Yunnan for the first time in her life will never be surpassed.This is just like her love for the little prince:

Time goes by and time goes on, but although the story of loving and being loved can always repeat itself, it has never been surpassed.

The first time I experienced unexpectedly became the commanding height of life that could never be surpassed.

This is just like any cultural giant in later generations cannot surpass Confucius, and any great history book cannot surpass Sima Qian.

Unreasonable, but unconditionally convincing.
