Introduction to "The King's Words on Bronze Slips"
Provincial station host Shen Yan took over a "traffic-first" historical program. The emperors in the script were either gods or ghosts - Ying Zheng was the "tyrant", Cao Cao was the "treacherous hero", and Wu Zetian was the "demon queen". Until an accident, the cold water he splashed activated the bronze slips in the office. When the blue light suddenly appeared, he was standing on the sapphire steps of Xianyang Palace. Opposite him was Ying Zheng, who was holding the draft of the "Book Burning Order", with unwiped cinnabar still stuck between his fingers.
"Later generations will say that I am a tyrant?" Ying Zheng paused with his fingertips on the bamboo slips, and the half-eaten piece of wheat cake on the corner of the desk rolled to the ground.
Since then, Shen Yan's studio has become a "time and space interview room". He accompanied Cao Cao over Guo Jia's old wine at the Tongque Terrace, and the draft of "The Duke of Zhou spits out food" floated in the wine; he helped Wu Zetian sew Princess Taiping's puppet in Shangyang Palace, and the broken threads were wrapped around Princess An Ding's shoes; he watched Zhu Yuanzhang feeding porridge to a sick child at the pharmacy in Yingtian City, and the wild vegetable residue on the edge of the broken bowl was as eye-catching as the patches on the dragon's robe.
The bronze slips reflected the past and present, and he showed the audience: when Yang Jian touched the imperial examination regulations and cried, his fingertips rubbed the words "poor scholar"; when Zhao Kuangyin played chess in Longxing Temple, there was always Shi Shouxin's old military talisman in the empty space opposite; Cao Cao burned " When reviewing the biography of "The Traitor", sparks fell on the map of wheat seeds in the farm records - those emperors labeled by history books turned out to be hurt and regretful, and would hide unsaid words in the gaps in jade guis, the broken tips of phoenix hairpins, and the tears in wine-warming pots.
"Your Majesty, where will the future be?"
