Long Jiuxiao said," Bian He Presents Jade " is a record of Bian He Square, so it has to be very simple. Here, I'll tell you a complete version of the story!
Bian He (a native of Zhangnan County) obtained Pu in Jingshan (South County) and presented it to the King of Chu. The jade official identified it as a stubborn stone. The king of Chu cut off his left foot for deceiving the king. King Wu of Chu ascended the throne, Bian He presented Pu again, and King Wu cut off Bian He's right foot for deceiving the emperor. King Wen of Chu ascended the throne (689-677 B.C.), and Bian He wept at the foot of Jingshan Mountain. King Wen ordered the jade officer to cut open the uncut jade. As expected, the jade was found, and Bian He was granted the title of doctor. Therefore, the name "He's Wall" was named.
Before Bian He presented the jade, Bian He received the jade first.
According to the records of the Pre-Qin Dynasty, there was a stonemason named Bian He who lived near the Jade Seal Rock around 700 B.C. The young man was very diligent. When Bian He was working in the mountains and fields, he often saw a pair of phoenixes landing on the Phoenix Terrace. After three cries, they would either fly into the "Bao Pu Rock" or soar north.
Bian He often heard people say," A phoenix will not land in a land without treasures." He had also heard his grandfather talk about the types of stones and the characteristics of gems. He was quite knowledgeable about stone gambling!
So Bian He carefully observed the movements of the phoenix entering the cave. Finally, he found that the phoenix had come from thousands of mountains and rivers away to fill the jade here with cinnabar. He chiseled down a stone that was very different from the surrounding and brought it back to his grandfather to see. His grandfather, who had a discerning eye for treasures, exclaimed, This is a gem."
Therefore, the whole family held a meeting to discuss and finally decided to present it to the Chu royal family to make the Chu country famous.
However, the first and second time he presented the treasure, he was called a stubborn stone by the Jade Yin (Jade Craftsman, jealous) and his feet were cut off for deceiving the emperor.
When King Wen of Chu ascended the throne, Bian He wept bitterly at the foot of Chu Mountain for three days and three nights, so much so that his eyes were filled with blood. King Wen was very surprised and sent someone to ask him,"There are many people in the world who have their feet cut off. Why are you the only one who is so sad?"”
Bian He sighed." I'm not sad because my feet were cut off. It's because gems are treated as stones, and loyal people are treated as officials who deceive the emperor. Right and wrong are reversed, and I'm sad!"”
The third jade offering deeply moved King Wen of Chu. King Wen ordered the jade worker to cut open the jade and personally inspect it. As expected, there was a huge piece of jade inside the stone. There was no flaw at all. In order to reward Bian He's loyalty, the jade was named " He's Bi ". This was the legendary He's Bi of later generations.
It was said that this jade was warm in winter and cool in summer. No mosquitoes or flies could approach it within a hundred steps. It was a priceless treasure.
King Wen of Chu granted Bian He the title of Marquis of Ling Yang, but Bian He refused and said,"The appearance of Baoyu, my wish is fulfilled."
Bian He wiped his tears and said calmly,""I have never lied in my life, but I was slandered as a greedy swindler. Now that the beautiful jade has finally seen the sky, my wish has also been fulfilled. I don't want any rewards, I just want to spend the rest of my life at the foot of Jing Mountain.”
This story tells us that as long as we persist in the truth, we will one day be recognized by the world.
The implication was that sometimes the truth was not easy to be recognized by others. To persist in the truth, one often had to pay an extremely high or even painful price.
For thousands of years, this rare treasure has played out countless vivid stories that have attracted worldwide attention. For example," Zhang Yi was wronged at the Red Mountain Banquet "," Lin Xiangru returned the jade to Zhao ", and Qin Shihuang made it into the " Imperial Jade Seal ".
Stone gambling was risky!
At that time, Bian He saw that the pattern and color of this stone were very unusual. Based on his own experience, Bian He believed that there must be a very large piece of jade in this stone that could be carved into a national treasure. This was the experience of modern stone gambling!
Stone gambling referred to the fact that when jade was mined, it was wrapped in a layer of weathered skin. It was impossible to know whether it was good or bad. The quality of the jade could only be known after it was cut.
Stone gambling was a contest of experience, strength, and luck.
The first thing a stone-betting master had to do was to have the ability to challenge, the second was to have a spirit of adventure, and the third was to have rich experience.
If Bian He could live to this day, he would definitely be an outstanding master of stone gambling. But you must dare to open the stone! Open the stone to distinguish between true and false!
It was a pity that the jade craftsmen at that time did not recognize the golden inlaid jade (Jingshan jade). Or it could be said that the jade craftsmen were jealous of the virtuous and harmed the capable. Stone gambling was risky! Therefore, in the jade culture of the Celestial Dynasty, Bian He and the jade offering were a very beautiful story!
Here's a riddle to guess!
Bian He Xian Bi
Chenggong, White Jade
Bian He had presented the jade three times not to become an official and make a fortune, but to gain recognition for Baoyu and realize his loyalty. Even though his legs were cut off, he was still unyielding and determined to achieve his goal. His persistence and unyielding spirit were deeply admirable. Because of this, for thousands of years, the story of him and He Shibi had been spread everywhere.
He's Bi came from the Jade Seal Rock in Jinxiangping Village, Patrol Town, South County, also known as the Baopu Rock. It was located in Jinxiangping Village, Xunjian Town, 78 kilometers away from the county town. Sitting north facing south, the rock was 11 meters deep, 15 meters wide, and 10 meters high. On the south side of the rock across the river was a pointed circular hill called Phoenix Terrace.
When the immortal phoenix saw that the Heshi jade was said to be the "Imperial Jade Seal", it flew away. Therefore, the local people called this mountain "Flying Phoenix Mountain".
Later generations added the story of Bian and Xianyu:
King Wen of Chu wanted Bian He to be Marquis Lingyang, but Bian He did not accept it. When King Wen asked him why, Bian He replied,""The reason why I am crying is not because of my feet. The reason why I persevere in offering jade is not to get a high position. Since the jade has been born, my wish has been fulfilled!”King Wen sighed with emotion and said,"Great! Great! If the heavens had a spirit, they would bless Bian He's feet to recover.”
Coincidentally, someone sent a message: A fisherman caught two fish shaped like two shoes. When Bian He saw this, he was pleasantly surprised and said,"These are my shoes." He put it on Bian He's foot and it matched perfectly. They walked the same way as before. Everyone felt gratified and celebrated for Bian He, and also sang for King Wen's discerning eyes to recognize Jing Shanyu.
Therefore, there was an endless stream of people who rushed to visit Boots Fish Cave and praised it as the Immortal Fish Cave.
Boots Fish Cave was also known as Immortal Fish Cave. It was located at the southern foot of Longjia Mountain in South County's Patrol Town. It was backed by a thousand-foot cliff. Several lush ancient trees grew out of the cliff and swayed in the wind, giving people a feeling of being vigorous and magnificent. It was said that it was related to Bian He's offering of jade. There is an inscription at the entrance of the cave.
After reading the story, there would definitely be a poem. Long Jiuxiao's poem said:
Bian He's Feelings of Offering Jade
Long river water contains spirit to show, jade spring clear rhyme people know.
The essence of the star of the year fell on Jingshan Mountain, and the blood of the jade phoenix perched on the stone.
Bian He got jade holding Pu rock, Chu Shan know Pu only and surname.
It is difficult to dig a cave in the mountain to pick jade. There is a phoenix coming to the instrument crying heart galloping.
There are great changes in the world, jade does not say that everyone knows.
King Li secretly believed in calumny and cut off his feet and toes because he was deceived.
Liancheng Baibi was slandered, King Wu sent jade people to look at it.
The loyal minister cut off his feet one after another. Bian He, a hero of Chu, was a loyal man.
Bian He loves jade very much, who knows to wait for him to know.
Jingshan long cry blood people, blood tears two lines wet clothes.
Right and wrong upside down sad cry, bosom talent difficult to meet bosom friend knowledge.
The heart was broken, and King Wen of Zhou was moved to cut open the stone.
The unpolished jade shot out thousands of rays of light, and the beautiful jade's true appearance appeared peerless.
The crystal clear and flawless white was like snow, and the beauty of the Chu family was revealed.
It was like a bright moon hanging in the night sky, exquisite and translucent.
The priceless Heshi Jade, a thousand years of loyalty, should be avenged!
Looking back to the source, the saying "eyes don't recognize gold inlaid jade" came from the homonym of "eyes don't recognize Jingshan jade".
Bian He Deyu
Phoenix Terrace in front of Yuyin Rock, Jingshan Treasure Land planted parasol trees.
Living in a high voice, far away from the sparse paulownia trees, strong and healthy growth of pillars.
Dressed in the bright morning sun, the branches of the parasol tree attract the phoenix.
Flying phoenix love parasol tree, perched on the branches will nest cover;
The phoenix sang and danced, its golden feathers dazzling.
Phoenix flying in harmony, such a wonderful sound of nature.
Phoenix bird new baby just born, phoenix phoenix bird all kinds of love.
The wind blows thousands of miles to find the tender buds, and the hard work is to feed the young talents;
The phoenix chirped three times on the Phoenix Platform.
The bird on the Phoenix Terrace flies North, and the jade under the Phoenix Terrace comes.
The divine bird recommended the jade to Bian He, and the legend of the ages was waiting for you to pick it.
Later generations built a platform to commemorate it, and its reputation spread through the ages.
Long Jiuxiao's poem was so good, why didn't everyone reward him properly!
