Chapter 1129: Treasures of the Nation [6]

"You, you're too reckless."

Old Man Kong didn't expect Liu Yuhao to suddenly smash the waist drum dance figurine, so he couldn't help but stand up, raised his eyebrows, his face turned blue with anger, and he trembled all over, and he didn't know what to say.

Even if you suspect it's a fake, it won't be smashed.

At this time, Liu Yuhao suddenly became a loser in the eyes of Old Man Kong.

But the old man's angry expression didn't last even a second, and then it was replaced by an extremely strange look, and a crystal clear and radiant jade slipped out of the waist drum and dance figurines.

Suddenly, the study was immersed in silence, except for the rapid breathing of the old and young, I was afraid that even a needle could be heard clearly.

The piece of beautiful jade, enough to have four inches square, the color of the side view is blue, the color of the right view is white, the whole body is crystal clear and warm, the green is blue, the jade body wood grain, the blood is clearly visible, when the smooth surface is rotated, it can be seen that the light and shadow of the dark red on the fine texture are like smoke swimming and changing, which is amazing. And what shocked the two the most was not here, this beautiful jade has been carved, boxy, and there are five dragons in New York, and a piece is missing in one of the corners, which has been made up with gold.

In an instant, a legend appeared in the minds of Liu Yuhao and Old Man Kong at the same time.

Could it be that this is the legendary "Seal of the Son of Heaven"?

"Yu Hao, this, this is the Son of Heaven Seal, it is the Son of Heaven Seal!"

Suddenly, Old Man Kong's breathing accelerated several times, his flushed face was full of excitement, and his body couldn't help trembling again.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and even Liu Yuhao's eyes were full of horror.

I actually knocked out the jade seal of the country without paying attention, it was too shocking!

At this moment, Liu Yuhao felt that his hands were trembling, and his legs were a little weak, he didn't know whether he should congratulate himself on his good luck, or blame himself for his reckless behavior just now.

"It's good that it's not too ruthless."

Liu Yuhao was stunned and muttered softly.

Fortunately, Liu Yuhao and Old Man Kong both have strong enough hearts, just imagine, if Liu Yuhao accidentally used half a cent of strength when he smashed the three-color porcelain just now, there might be an accident in that Tianzixi.

The consequences are unimaginable!

"Damn, the Seal of the Son of Heaven was almost smashed by me along with the three-colored porcelain?"

Although this thought only flashed through Liu Yuhao's mind like lightning, then a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back again, and the wind outside the window blew in, and Liu Yuhao felt the cold and cold through his body.

But even so, Liu Yuhao's heart was pounding, and the green tendons on his brain burst outward, bulging high as if they were about to explode.

Historically, there are not a few artifacts that can be called the country's treasures, but I am afraid that none of them can compare with the jade seal of the country.

It is the object that careerists dream of pursuing, and it is also the object of historians' rich and colorful depictions. Shrouded in it, there are heavy swords and swords, low drums and horns, its appearance and disappearance, and even become a symbol of the change of dynasty and the change of flags.

"Yu Hao, I, I want to get started and take a look"

Old Man Kong had beads of sweat the size of beans hanging on the tip of his nose, his voice trembled, and his eyes were full of piety.

Liu Yuhao hesitated for a moment, and nodded slightly downward mechanically.

In fact, at the moment when the Son of Heaven Seal slipped out, Liu Yuhao himself was stunned, until now he was not sure whether the jade in front of him that exuded charming charm was really the heirloom jade seal.

But there is one thing that Liu Yuhao can confirm, that is, the person who hid the jade seal in the city wall bricks must be a strange master, otherwise he would not even be able to penetrate the inside of the wall tiles with his own abilities.

As for what method the person who hid the treasure used in the first place to make the treasure hidden so mysterious, Liu Yuhao has no heart to think about it now, and even if he racks his brains, I am afraid that he will not be able to figure it out for a while.

Now that the treasure has been presented in front of him, what Liu Yuhao has to do is to screen its authenticity first.

"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity!"

Old Man Kong wore white gloves and was extremely excited to gently recite the eight big characters on the seal of the Son of Heaven.

"Boom".

Liu Yuhao swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.

In fact, before Old Man Kong pronounced those eight words, he had already used his ability to identify the jade seal to determine its authenticity, but it was one thing to be able to identify the treasure, but hearing it with his own ears was another feeling.

"It feels so unreal."

Old Man Kong sighed, and his eyes couldn't leave the Tianzi Seal for a long time, "Yu Hao, you should be the most familiar with the story of the jade seal of the country." ”

Liu Yuhao nodded, and his eyes were wide like the old man's expression, staring at the Tianzi Seal on the table without blinking. "Okay, I want to hear about the past of Tianzixi again." Old Man Kong's face was sluggish, and he said astringently.

This requirement is simply too simple for a professional archaeological talent, Liu Yuhao poured a cup of tea for Mr. Kong, and said slowly like a few treasures.

According to legend, in 221 B.C., after Qin Shi Huang destroyed the six countries and unified China, Qin Shi Huang carved the Heshi Bi into a jade seal, and ordered Prime Minister Li Si to seal on it "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang" eight insect and bird characters, engraved to the top by the jade worker Sun Shou, thus becoming the jade seal of the country.

After the death of Qin II, Ziying dedicated the heirloom jade seal to Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and awarded it the "Han Heirloom Jade Seal". At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang was in power, when the emperor's son was only 2 years old, and the national seal was placed in Changle Palace, which was controlled by the Yuan Emperor and Empress.

Later, Wang Mang usurped the throne, established a new dynasty, and sent his younger brother Shun to ask for the seal of the Son of Heaven, and the queen mother scolded: "I am old and dead, such as brothers, this clan is also destroyed!" Then he threw the heirloom seal in the palace, and the jade seal was broken into a corner, and later it was inlaid with gold.

According to historical records, in October 23 AD, Wang Mang was killed, and the seal was obtained by the lieutenant and presented to Li Song, the general of the Green Forest Army. Li Song sent someone to Liu Yun, the first emperor. After Liu Yun was captured by the Red Mei Army, the national seal fell into the hands of Liu Penzi, who was supported by the Red Mei Army as the emperor. Later, Liu Penzi defeated Yiyang and handed over the national seal to Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

But I never thought that in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, I encountered the dictatorship of the eunuchs again, and my relative He Jin failed to plot against the eunuchs, but was harmed by the eunuchs. Yuan Shao led the troops into the palace to kill the eunuchs, the palace was in chaos, Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty took refuge in the north palace at night, and did not bring the national seal in a hurry, and after returning to the palace, the national seal was found to be missing.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the princes of all walks of life crusaded against Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian, who took the lead in attacking Luoyang City, got a red box on the body of a palace maid in the well, and the thing in the box was the seal of the country. After that, Sun Jian's son Sun Ce presented the jade seal to Yuan Shu to borrow soldiers and horses. Sun Ce used this seal to exchange 3,000 soldiers from Yuan Shu, thus laying the foundation of Sun Wu's hegemony. After Yuan Shu's claim to be emperor failed, the jade seal belonged to Cao Cao.

Cao Wei Dynasty Han, as a symbol of "divine grant by the monarch", fell into the hands of Cao Pi. Cao Pi made people engrave eight characters on the shoulder of the seal of the country, "the seal of the Great Wei Dynasty by the Han Dynasty". The Western Jin Dynasty received Zen, and the seal of the country fell into the hands of Sima.

Since then, the north has fallen into the situation of division and turmoil of the five Hu and sixteen countries, and the "national seal" has been tossed and turned several times, and then fell into the hands of Xie Shang, the general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the west, Xie Shang sent it to the capital Jiankang overnight with three hundred fine horses, dedicated to Emperor Mu of Jin, and the seal of the country returned to the Sima family of the Jin Dynasty. In 420 AD, Liu Yu abolished Emperor Gong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and established himself as the emperor, with the country name Song, known as Liu Song in history; In the Southern Dynasties, the seal of the country went through the changes of Song, Qi, Liang and Chen.

When Emperor Wu of Liang in the Southern Dynasty, Hou Jing rebelled, broke through the official city, robbed the "Seal of the Country", soon Hou Jing was defeated and died, his general Hou Zijian threw the jade seal into the well of Qixia Temple, there was a monk who fished out the jade seal and stored it, and later his disciples dedicated the jade seal to Emperor Wu Chen.

After Yang Jian established the Sui Dynasty, in 589 AD, he destroyed Chen to unify the whole country, and passed on the jade seal of the country to the Sui Palace. In March of the fourteenth year of the Great Cause (618 AD), Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of Sui, was killed in Jiangdu and died in Sui. Empress Xiao and the crown prince Yuande fled into the Mobei Turks with the national seal.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Taizong Li Shimin did not have a jade seal of the country, so he engraved a number of jade "seals" such as "Destined Treasure" and "Destined Treasure", and talked about **. In 630 AD, Li Jing led the army to crusade against the Turks, and in the same year, Empress Xiao and Prince Yuande returned to the Central Plains with the Turks, and the seal of the country was returned to the Tang Dynasty. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, and the heroes were everywhere. After Zhu Wen usurped the Tang Dynasty, the "Inheritance of the National Seal" suffered bad luck again.

Later, the Tang Dynasty Emperor was defeated by the Khitan, climbed the tower and set himself on fire, and the jade seal was also burned, and his whereabouts are unknown. After Guo Weijian was built after the week, he searched for the national seal but could not find it, and had no choice but to engrave the seal of the "Emperor's Divine Treasure" and other seals, which were passed on to the Northern Song Dynasty. During the reign of Zhezong of the Northern Song Dynasty, a farmer found the seal of the country while plowing the field and sent it to the imperial court.

According to the records of the previous dynasty, thirteen scholars believed that this was the national seal made by the first emperor. However, there are also some people of insight in the government and the opposition who doubt its authenticity. In the first year of Song Jingkang, the Jin soldiers broke through Bianliang, the second emperor of Huiqin was plundered, and the "Seal of the Kingdom" was also plundered by the Dajin State, and then disappeared.

In the more than 100 years of the coexistence of the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, there has been no news of the jade seal of the country. In the first month of the third year of Jin Tianxing (1234 AD), the Mongols attacked and destroyed the Jin Dynasty, and Jin Aizong committed suicide, and did not find the jade seal of the country.

In the first month of the second year of Song Deyou, the Yuan Dynasty defeated the Southern Song Dynasty, and Emperor Song Gong surrendered with the national seal, but this was a jade seal made by the Southern Song Dynasty itself, not handed down by Qin Shi Huang. In the first month of the 31st year of the Yuan dynasty, Kublai Khan died, but the jade seal of Qin Shi Huang mysteriously appeared in Dadu.

In the summer and April of that year, at the meeting of Mongolian princes and nobles held in Shangdu, Cui Yu presented the jade seal to the emperor's grandson Timur, and his text said "Ordered by the heavens, both longevity and eternal prosperity". Timur ascended the throne for Yuan Chengzong. Since then, the jade seal of the country has been passed down in the Yuan Dynasty for nine generations of emperors before it really disappeared and never appeared again.

Therefore, after more than 2,000 years of ups and downs, the "jade seal of the country" has been hidden and hidden. Since the disappearance of the king's seal during the Five Dynasties, it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of this national treasure. So, where is the real heirloom seal? No one can answer.

It's amazing, it's amazing!

The jade seal of the heirloom that had disappeared for thousands of years actually appeared in his study, and until now Old Man Kong still felt that this experience was too unreal for him, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe it.
