Chapter 197: The Legend of the Jade Seal

Back at the Sky Villa, Tang Dou turned on the computer and began to search for information about the jade seal of the country, and more and more information was collected, and Tang Dou's head became bigger and bigger.

There are too many legends about the jade seal of the country, there are official histories, wild histories, and some are simply conjecture or even fabricated out of thin air without any basis.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, Tang Dou copied all these materials into a document, and then sorted out and screened them from beginning to end, and for those legends that were not very reliable, he simply backed them up aside and waited for verification.

The process of verification is long and boring, and for this reason, Tang Dou consulted the "Book of Han? Later Yuan Biography", "Zizhi Tongjian" of "Jin Ji XII", "Taiping Yulan" of "Ritual Department III? Seal" and other classics, almost did not check himself crazy, and finally sorted out a general trend of more than 1,600 years of jade seals.

From Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng to create the jade seal of the country, to Liu Bang to get the jade seal, this context is relatively clear, but in the future, the records of the jade seal of the country are becoming more and more confusing, although some records are conclusive, but they are covered with too much mystery, so that Tang Dou can not distinguish the true from the false.

In the winter of the first year of Qin Ziying, Liu Bang attacked Bashang, Qin Ziying surrendered in the Jidao Pavilion thirteen miles east of Xianyang, and presented the seal of the first emperor, Liu Bang then wore this treasure with him, and received it from generation to generation, called the seal of the Han Dynasty.

In other words, the name of the heirloom jade seal has only been officially named since Liu Bang.

Later, at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, and the little emperor Liu Ying was only two years old.

Wang Mang usurped the throne and sent his younger brother Wang Shun, Marquis of Beiyang, into the palace to ask for the jade seal of the country, and the Empress Dowager of Han Xiaoyuan saw Wang Shun angrily reprimanded: "You belong to the father and son clan Menghan family power, rich and noble, take advantage of the convenience, seize the national seal, do not care about grace and righteousness, in this way, the dog and pig do not eat the rest!" ”

The Empress Dowager of Han Xiaoyuan immediately threw the jade seal of the country to the ground. The jade seal of the country was missing a corner, and Wang Mang made it up for it with gold, but it was difficult to be seamless, and it was the treasure of the world. Leave a scar ever since.

Later, Wang Mang was defeated, and he took the seal ribbon to avoid the gradual platform, and the merchant Du Wu killed Wang Mang and took his ribbon without knowing how to take his seal. The official guests greeted the ribbon and asked where they got it. personally went to cut Wang Mang's head, and obtained the jade seal of the country, and handed over the jade seal of the country to Wang Xian.

Wang Xiande passed on the jade seal of the country, revealing the intention of being the emperor, and the chariot he rode in was also in accordance with the etiquette system of the chariot of the Son of Heaven.

Li Song entered Chang'an, beheaded Wang Xian, and sent the jade seal of the country to Wan, dedicated to the beginning.

The red eyebrows were killed, and the seal returned to Liu Penzi.

In the third year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Penzi was defeated in Yiyang. Dedicated to the national jade seal, returned to Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the eunuchs Zhang Rang and Duan Qi made trouble, and Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty left the North Palace at night and separated from the seal officer.

Zhang Rang, Duan Jue ambushed, the young emperor returned to the palace, the six seals were there, and the only one lost the national jade seal, this is the first time that the national jade seal disappeared from all records.

Soon, the princes of the Eighteenth Route crusaded against Dong Zhuo. Changsha Taishou Sun Jian invaded Luoyang, fished out the body of a palace maid from the well of Zhen Palace in the south of the city, and obtained the jade seal in the vermilion box under his head. The jade seal is four inches in circumference, and it carries five dragons on it. There is a corner missing, and it is inlaid with gold, and there is a seal inscription under it: Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang.

Sun Jian received the jade seal of the country, and had a different idea, so he hid it in his wife Wu's place.

Later, Sun Jian died. Yuan Shu got the jade seal of the country and became the emperor.

After Yuan Shu's death, his wife carried the coffin to the Lujiang River, and was robbed of the heirloom seal by Xu Xuan, the assassin of Jingzhou, and dedicated it to Cao Cao.

Later, Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty to establish the Wei State, painted a snake to add to the foot, and sent people to engrave the word 'Great Wei by the Han Dynasty' on the shoulder of the jade seal of the country

The Western Jin Dynasty unified the Three Kingdoms, and the jade seal of the country was returned to Sima Yan.

In the fifth year of Emperor Yongjia of Jin Huai, Wang Mi invaded Luoyang, captured Emperor Huai of Jin and passed on the jade seal of the country.

As the ruler of the ethnic minority, Liu Cong did not understand the meaning of the jade seal of the country, so he moved Emperor Huai of Jin and the jade seal of the country to Pingyang for custody.

After Liu Cong's death, the general Jin Zhun made a rebellion and wanted to hand over the jade seal of the country to Hu Song, but Hu Song did not dare to accept it.

Soon Jin Zhun was killed, and Jin Ming sent Bu Tai to offer the seal to Liu Yao.

Shi Le killed Liu Yao, got the jade seal of the country, and pretended to be clever and engraved the words 'Mandate of Heaven Shi' on the other side of the jade seal.

Later, Zhao passed to Shijian, civil strife, Ran Min killed Shijian, seized the seal, and passed on his son Ran Zhi.

In 352 AD, Murong Jun conquered Yecheng and declared that Min's wife had dedicated the jade seal of the country, named her 'Fengxi Jun', changed the year name to 'Yuan Xi', and established the Great Yan Kingdom.

However, the so-called dedication of the seal is just a scam by director Murong Jun, who wants to find an orthodox explanation for his rule. In fact, at that time, Puyang Taishou Dai Shi in the name of sending troops to rescue, from the Ran Wei general Jiang Gan to earn the jade seal of the country, sent the capital to protect He Rong Huaixi to Fangtou, handed over to the Jin Anxi general Xie Shang, Xie Shang sent the jade seal of the country to Jiankang, so far, the jade seal of the country after 42 years of circulation and returned to the Jin.

Later, Emperor Gong of Jin was located in Liu Yu, and the jade seal of the country was returned to the Song Dynasty.

After the Qi and Liang, to the time of Emperor Jianwen of Liang, Hou Jing rebelled and seized the jade seal of the country.

Hou Jing's army was defeated, and his subordinate Hou Zi carried the jade seal of the country to Jiangdong, for fear of catching up with the pursuers, he threw the seal into the well of Jiankang Qixia Temple, which was obtained by the monks of the temple forever.

In the second year of Chen Yongding, he presented Emperor Chen Wu with the jade seal of the country.

Emperor Wen of Sui destroyed Chen and obtained the jade seal of the country from the queen of Chen.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty carried the jade seal of the country to Yangzhou in the south, and was hanged in the river, and the jade seal of the country was returned to Yu culture.

Yu culture and the army were defeated, and Sui died. Empress Xiao and Emperor Sun Zhengdao fled into the Mobei Turks with the jade seal of the country.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Li Jing led the army to crusade against the Turks, and in the same year, Empress Xiao and Emperor Sun Zhengdao returned to the Central Plains, and the jade seal of the country returned to Li Shimin.

Tang biography more than 270 years to Zhaozong. In the fourth year of Tang Tianyou, Zhu Quanzhong abolished Emperor Tang Ai, seized the jade seal of the country, and built the Later Liang.

Sixteen years later, Li Cunmian destroyed the Later Liang, built the Later Tang Dynasty, and passed on the jade seal of the country to the Later Tang Dynasty.

Thirteen years later, Shi Jingjiao led the Khitan army to Luoyang, and the Tang Dynasty abolished Emperor Li Congke, Empress Dowager Cao, and Empress Liu took the jade seal of the country to the Xuanwu Tower. Li Congke**, so the jade seal of the country disappeared here.

The seal of the country was passed from the reign of Qin Shi Huang to the end of the Tang Dynasty, counting more than 1,600 years.

There is also a saying that the jade seal of the country was passed down to the Northern Song Dynasty.

This legend is quite bizarre, saying that a farmer found a jade seal while plowing the field and sent it to the imperial court. In the first year of Jingkang in the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin soldiers broke through Bianliang, the second emperor of Huiqin was plundered, and the jade seal of the country was also plundered by the Jin State at the same time, and then disappeared.

Looking at the information sorted out, Tang Dou's head is already as big as three.

At a glance, it seems that there are countless opportunities to find the jade seal of the country, but after careful consideration, it seems that there is an infinite killing machine hidden behind every opportunity, after all, the jade seal of the country is the treasure of the country, no matter which monarch gets it, it must be cherished, and ordinary people cannot approach it at all.

However, after all the calculations, Tang Dou still has a few opportunities to get close to the jade seal of the country.

The first opportunity was naturally to go to the abandoned Zhen Palace Well in the south of Luoyang City to salvage the body of the palace maid before Sun Jian got the jade seal, but the jade seal obtained in this way did not have the words engraved by Cao Pi and Shi Le on the jade seal of the country later.

The second opportunity was to pester Cao Cao to go directly to Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty to ask for it, and the jade seal he got was also without the words engraved by Cao Pi and Shi Le on the jade seal.

If there is no inscription on the jade seal that Tang Dou got back, then people will definitely question the authenticity of the jade seal, just like Hua Tuo's "Health Tips", it really becomes fake.

However, since the Three Kingdoms, the jade seal of the country is either in the hands of the emperors of all dynasties, or in the hands of the generals who support the army and respect themselves.

It seems that the only chance is the legend that the most implausible and bizarre farmer ploughed the field and obtained the jade seal of the country, but Tang Dou has a strict skeptical attitude towards this legend.

And whether it's true or not, just go back in time and take a look, isn't it the Northern Song Dynasty, the most frequent Tang Dou crossing is probably the Ming Dynasty Tang Bohu and the Northern Song Dynasty Su Dongpo period, the folk customs of the Northern Song Dynasty are relatively well understood, and just to contact a farmer, there is no risk in thinking about it.

As soon as he said go, Tang Dou changed into the clothes of the Northern Song Dynasty, and walked away. (To be continued.) )
