Chapter 42: The Empty City

One after another scarecrows were quickly thrown down from the top of the river pavilion, and if it rained, they were densely thrown down from the top of the city by those ordinary people.

Mei Qian and the others under the "scarecrow" city were a little puzzled, what was the matter with these scarecrows left on top of the city.

I only heard Huang Yi's words over there, "King Meiqian, we shouldn't deceive you, you see, these are the scarecrows on our Jiangting City, we have all destroyed him"

It was still raining scarecrows above the city. Huang Yi wailed, so that Mei Qian couldn't grasp his mind at all, he was originally going to rely on the scarecrow to debunk the tricks of those suspicious soldiers in the Jiang Pavilion over there, and give him an embarrassment on the spot, to hit the morale of the Jiang Pavilion army, but this punch was like hitting the cotton, it had no effect at all, and people didn't need you to open their mouths, so they threw those scarecrows on the city wall.

"King Mei Gan, we surrender, we admit defeat, what you want, we give you something, don't you want to pass on the jade seal, we will give it to you" Huang Yi shouted loudly to Mei Gan over there. "Heirloom Jade Seal" Mei Gan's eyes suddenly lit up below, heirloom jade seal, isn't this what he Mei Qian dreamed of.

"King Meigan, please look," said Huang Yi, and took out a square thing wrapped in red cloth from behind him.

"This is the heirloom jade seal"

Huang Yi directly lifted the red cloth for him, and suddenly the eyes of everyone below widened. Huang Yi and Yuan Yao have already seen it, but they are still stunned by the appearance of this heirloom jade seal, it is too vivid.

The square thing of "heirloom jade seal" was lifted from his red cloth head, and Shanshan shone in the sunlight.

The heirloom jade seal is carved from wood as a whole, and the outside is Yang Hong who asked people to melt the gold and give the pot a layer of gold skin on the outside, so it shines under the sun, and it is very flashing.

Mei Gan's entire mind was attracted by this heirloom jade seal.

A puzzled voice suddenly came from the side of "Huh".

Mei Qian looked over, and it turned out that the person who questioned it was none other than his subordinate scout Dongfang Ming.

"Have you ever seen the heirloom jade seal," Mei Qian asked Dongfang Ming over there.

"No" Dongfang Ming shook his head, he was just the leader of a small bandit, how could he have seen the heirloom jade seal.

On the city wall, Yuan Yao and the others also breathed a sigh of relief, if this little boss Dongfang Ming had seen this heirloom jade seal and recognized it as a fake, then Yuan Yao's next plan would be all over. "But this heirloom jade seal, the small one, but I heard that it was made by He's Bi, how can it be golden" Dongfang Ming expressed his doubts. "En" Mei Qian choked and frowned, yes, he Mei Qian has always thought that he is a cultural person, this heirloom jade seal is the original and returned to Zhao and the family, originally Mei Qian didn't know, but now he was reminded by this Dongfang Mingyi, and immediately became smart.

Phew, it turns out that this Dongfang Ming has never seen the heirloom jade seal, so it's easy to do.

Yuan Yao waved his hand at Huang Yi over there, there was no need for Yuan Yao to teach, Huang Yi talked nonsense compared to Yuan Yao, which was no better.

There is no need to make a draft at all, and he opens his mouth and comes, "King Mei Qian, you don't know about this, indeed, this heirloom jade seal is made of He's bi, but King Mei Qian, do you know, this thing is gold-inlaid jade" Huang Yi looked at Mei Qian over there and asked. "Jin inlaid jade" looked at Mei Gan's uncertain tone over there, and suddenly Huang Yi's heart calmed down, which showed that this King Mei Qian didn't know at all, and even if he knew, he didn't know anything about it. "Yes, gold inlaid with jade, in the Spring and Autumn Period, Chu Guobian and Deyupu were dedicated to King Wen of Chu, and they were made into pieces, called "He's Bi". Legend has it that this bi is warm in winter and cool in summer, and mosquitoes dare not fly close within 100 steps, which is a rare treasure. After Qin unified China, "He's Bi" changed hands several times and fell into the hands of Qin Shi Huang. Qin Shi Huang ordered the jade workers to carve it into a jade seal. The jade seal is four inches long, wide and high, and it is engraved with the eight seal characters of Li Si's book, "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang". The five dragons are also carved around it, which is exquisitely clear and ingenious. Qin Shi Huang couldn't put it down and worshipped it as a sacred object. After the Han Dynasty destroyed Qin, "He's Bi" went through several vicissitudes and came to Liu Bang's hands, and Liu Bang passed the "He's Bi" as a jade seal from generation to generation, and it has been passed on to 12 generations of emperors. At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the two-year-old infant was the emperor and hid the jade seal in Changle Palace. After Wang Mang usurped the throne, he sent Wang Xun and Su Xian to coerce the Empress Dowager Xiaoyuan to hand over the jade seal. The queen mother saw that the country was ruined, and in a fit of anger took out the jade seal and threw it on the ground, this heirloom national treasure was broken on the spot, and later ordered a skilled craftsman to renovate and repair him with gold, so it was named "gold inlaid jade seal". This is where the "gold inlaid jade" comes from. "Our young master Huang Yi seriously explained the meaning of gold and jade to Mei Qian below." So, this is gold inlaid with jade," Mei Qian asked suspiciously. "That's nature" Huang Yi looked at Mei Gan and pretended to understand, secretly happy in his heart.

The story of gold and jade is true, but it is not to repair the entire He's Bi, but a corner of He's Bi was broken, and now Yang Hong has made this He's Bi but the whole thing is wrapped in gold to deceive some people who don't know how to do it, but for some people who know how to do it, it's a joke.

It's a pity that our King Meigan really belongs to the kind of people who are stupid but pretend to be smart about tasks. "That's gold and jade" Mei Qian said to his subordinates, explaining to his subordinates that he was a cultural person, and there was even a kind of blame over there, blaming Dongfang Ming for being too talkative, and almost disgraced himself.

Huang Yi looked at the second fool of Mei Gan with a swollen face and a fat man under the city, and his heart blossomed. "King Meiqian, as long as you can let go of Jiang Tingcheng, we will give you the heirloom jade seal, a piece of gold inlaid jade" Huang Yi put his state very low.

The heirloom jade seal, Mei Qian, looking at the heirloom jade seal over there is greedy, the heirloom jade seal, there are really few people who can resist his temptation.

It is true that people like Sun Jian, the brother of the fierce general, can't bear it, Liu Biao didn't hold back, knowing that he would offend the Sun family and offend Yuan Shu, he also made a move, and then he was Yuan Yao's cheap father.

Directly took him as the emperor, such three people were all confused by him, not to mention such a small bandit leader, Mei Gan's eyes had already seen the heirloom jade seal glow, even more glorious than the heirloom jade seal. "King, do you really want to let them go" Dongfang Ming on the side was a little anxious, if it was just to get the heirloom jade seal, although Mei Qian was happy, but his Dongfang Ming's credit was gone, so Dongfang Ming didn't want Mei Qian over there to let go of Jiang Ting for the heirloom jade seal.

He was afraid that Mei Qian would be moved by this heirloom jade seal. "Hmph" Mei Qian sneered twice, "Are you stupid for the real king" Mei Qian looked at Huang Yi above the city, "This king is just testing them" Mei Qian still thinks the same as before, this heirloom jade seal is a thing used to tempt, the value of this heirloom jade seal is needless to say, since this Jiang Pavilion can give away the heirloom jade seal at will, then it means that they have no possibility of protecting the heirloom jade seal at all, so Mei Qian will immediately wave his troops to attack the city.

"I want the heirloom jade seal, and I want that Jiangting City" Mei Qian is planning to eat all of them without leaving one.

"King Yingming" Dongfang Ming said happily, as long as he takes Jiang Tinghai's less, is it the benefit of Dongfang Ming, so Dongfang Ming is waiting for the city tower to send this heirloom jade seal.

But it was obvious that Young Master Huang Yi above the city was very lazy. "King Mei Gan, I admire the king very much, but I am afraid that I will offend the king if I can't help it, so I also invite the king to enter the Jiangting City to get the heirloom jade seal," Huang Yi said to Mei Qian under the city. "What" above the city, Mei Gan was immediately dissatisfied, and asked me to send someone in to take it and not deliver it to him Mei Gan's hands, "Hey, what kind of thing are you, the king of our family can afford you, so he let you send it down, otherwise, it will definitely make you Jiangting City ruined" Dongfang Ming is also in a hurry, you have to send the heirloom jade seal down, send it down, he Dongfang Ming can take the right credit. "Oh, I'm so scared," Huang Yi pretended to be panicked and said, "King Meiqian, Huang still had plans to send the heirloom jade seal to King Meiqian, but this general next to you is very fierce, I'm afraid," Huang Yi pretended to be soft and said. "Hmph, get out of the way" Mei Qian was a little dissatisfied with Dongfang Ming. "Let me send someone to Jiangting City to get the heirloom jade seal" Mei Qian hesitated a little, but the restlessness in his heart was like a kitten scratching, which made him unbearable.

In the end, Mei Qian still couldn't resist the temptation of the heirloom jade seal to "come"

Mei Gan became cautious, "Send me a team of soldiers and horses into the city, and bring back the heirloom jade seal from that Huang Yi's hand," Mei Qian said to his men.

"Yes" The team obviously didn't regard him as a hard job, and they were very excited to accept it.

"As long as you bring out the heirloom jade seal, the first credit for this Jiangting county town will be yours afterwards," Mei Qian promised to his men.

One by one, you look at me, I look at you, they are all very excited, "Big boss, please rest assured, we will definitely help you get this heirloom jade seal, if you need it, we will also help you bring you the head of that Huang Yi child"

This team of people didn't take Jiang Ting in their eyes at all.

In their opinion, the big boss of their own family is too cautious, if they directly send soldiers and horses to take this Jiangting City, the gates of this Jiangting City are opened, where is there such trouble. "Then Huang Yi's head is forgotten" Mei Qian said to everyone, he still likes Huang Yi's sycophancy technique, and is ready to leave him dead.

A group of men and horses came out of the crowd and slapped their horses towards Jiangting City over there.

"They're coming, they're coming" Yuan Yao looked at the team of dozens of soldiers and horses under the city coming towards Jiang Ting, and shouted to Chen Zhi beside him, "Uncle and nephew, it's up to you next" "Your Majesty, you can rest assured that you can watch it" Chen Zhi stood up with confidence, "Come with me", and led a team of men and horses down the city wall
