Chapter 292: The Mandate of Heaven Belongs to the Sun Clan
However, it was said that Sun Jian was unable to go to attack Hangu Pass with Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Bao Xin due to lack of troops and food, so he stationed troops in the southern city of Luoyang City.
At sunrise the next day, on the well of Zhenguan in the south of Luoyang City, there were colorful clouds floating, and the soldiers were frightened and did not dare to go to fetch water and make food, so they reported the matter to Sun Jian.
Sun Jian, Sun Jing, Cheng Pu and others were also surprised, and then came to Zhen Guanjing. When everyone saw what they saw, they were even more surprised.
Sun Jianqiang ordered a soldier to go down the well and find out.
"My lord! Nothing but a wooden box! ”
In a few moments, the soldier's shouts were heard.
"This well is ...... There are strange things! ”
Sun Jian looked at Sun Jing and Cheng Pu, sighed, and then said loudly: "Okay! Fetch the crate! ”
After dozens of breaths, the soldier came out of the well, and held the wooden box in his hand to Sun Jian.
Everyone immediately gathered around and looked at the things in Sun Jian's hands. I saw that this wooden box was all vermilion, and there was a golden lock locked on it.
Sun Jian took out the pine pattern ancient ingot knife at his waist, pinned off the golden lock, and opened the wooden box. Everyone stepped forward again, stretched out their necks and opened their eyes to take a closer look.
In the eye, the thing in the box is made of beautiful jade, square and square, four inches in circumference, and the thing is connected to five dragons, but it is missing a corner, and the missing place is inlaid with gold.
At the bottom of this thing, the seal is engraved with eight characters - ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity!
"Second brother! This thing is a jade seal of the country! ”
"This thing is owned by the first emperor of the previous dynasty, and after the death of Qin, the child was dedicated to Gaozu."
"When Wang Mang was in turmoil, he asked his cousin Wang Shun to ask for this thing, and the queen mother was furious, and threw the jade seal on the ground and broke one of its corners; Later, Wang Mang ordered the craftsman to fill the gap with gold. ”
Later, when Emperor Guangwu revived the Han Dynasty, he obtained this thing in Yiyang and passed it on to the previous emperors. A few years ago, after Yuan Mengzhu killed the eunuchs, this thing disappeared! ”
"I never thought about it...... The jade seal of the country is actually here! ”
"Hahaha...... It's really providential! ”
Sun Jing was surprised and surprised, and immediately said aloud. When he said the back, the look on Sun Jing's face was not only described by the word ecstasy.
After listening to Sun Jing's explanation, Sun Ben, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang were full of surprise.
Sun Jian looked at the heirloom jade seal over and over again, swaying inch by inch of the heirloom jade seal, his eyes were dark and unclear, and his expression was gradually solemn at first, and then slowly firm.
"The jade seal of the country is the object of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty and the artifact of the country, how can we ordinary people desecrate this thing?"
After a long time, Sun Jian said in a deep voice: "When I enshrine this thing to the Lord of the Yuan League, he will return it to His Majesty!" ”
"Second brother's words are wrong!"
"If there is chaos today, the shepherds of the states and counties are on the same side as the princes of the weekend. The Son of Heaven is still precarious, can Anneng Zhongxing Han Chamber? ”
"Yuan Shao secretly has strength and does not want to forge ahead, he is not a loyal minister of the Han family, but he has two ambitions! If Yuan Shao gets this thing, he will hide it in his body, and how can he give it to His Majesty? ”
"I think my Sun family, who have been officials in Jiangdong for generations, and are famous in the world, the second brother can get this thing, it is really God bless the Sun family, and the mandate of heaven belongs to the second brother."
"'Heaven does not take it, but suffers from it'! How can the second brother go against the will of heaven? I also hope that the second brother will keep this thing by his side! ”
Sun Jing was shocked, and hurriedly said earnestly and comfortingly.
"What the third uncle said is extremely true!"
Sun Ben was also ecstatic in his heart, and immediately said: "I still hope that the second uncle, don't disobey the mandate of heaven, and leave the jade seal of the country!" ”
"The lord has made great contributions to the society several times, and he is a hero who swept away the troubled times! I also hope that the Lord will accept this thing with peace of mind, and do not disappoint our subordinates and other people, and do not disappoint the expectations of all the people in the world! ”
Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang immediately knelt on the ground and said in unison with an eager face.
"The ambition of the second brother in his life is to sweep away the traitors and help protect the Han family, how can the foolish brother not know."
Seeing that Sun Jian's expression was a little hesitant, Sun Jing was overjoyed, and said with the momentum of retreat: "Second brother can leave this thing by his side for the time being, and when the world is in the future, he will enshrine this thing to His Majesty, and it will not be too late!" ”
Sun Jian still frowned, but the look on his face was no longer firm and clear; His eyes began to wander as well!
Sun Jing saw Sun Jian's silence and all kinds of expressions at a glance, and she was overjoyed.
Sun Jingxin said: Until now, the second brother still doesn't want to betray the big man! It seems that you can't blindly persecute the second brother, you have to follow the good temptation!
"Second brother! The brothers follow the second brother, not only because of the ambition of the second brother, but also for their own glory and wealth! ”
Sun Jing had already made up his mind, stepped forward, and came to Sun Jian's side, with a sincere expression with a little eagerness, and whispered in his ear: "Today, if the second brother does not accept the jade seal of the country, it will chill the hearts of your brothers. Brothers...... How can you give up...... Desperate for the second brother? Second brother! Don't hesitate any longer! ”
"What you have said is true!"
Hearing what Sun Jing said, Sun Jian was stunned, and he didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately said in a categorical voice: "In this case, I, Sun Jian, will keep the jade seal by my side, and when I find a good opportunity in the future, I will return it to Your Majesty intact!" ”
Sun Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and in just a moment, he was smiling. Sun Ben, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang were even more ecstatic!
"Second brother, it's not good to stay here for a long time, it's better to leave!" Sun Jing seemed to think of something, and said with a solemn face: "If others know about this, I am afraid that a big disaster will come!" ”
"Not bad!"
Sun Jian nodded, and hurriedly asked, "What excuse is what the third brother has seen...... To get out of here? ”
"Since Yuan Shu played the second brother as the assassin of Yuzhou, the second brother can meet Yuan Shao in person and say bluntly that he wants to return to Yuzhou to recruit troops and fight Dong Zhuo again!"
Sun Jing had already taken a countermeasure and immediately replied.
Sun Jian thought about it for a while, and he thought it was true!
……
That night, when Yuan Shao feasted the generals of the righteous army in the main hall of the North Palace, Sun Jian proposed the idea of returning south to Yuzhou.
Without thinking, Yuan Shao immediately asked Sun Jian why he hid the jade seal of the country. It turned out that the soldier who salvaged the jade seal was Yuan Shao's fellow villager, and this person secretly reported the jade seal to Yuan Shao for the sake of glory and wealth.
Faced with the sudden questioning, Sun Jian responded calmly, without a panicked face.
Sun Jian swore to heaven in front of everyone in the main hall of the North Palace, and swore that if Sun Jian secretly hid the jade seal of the country, he would die with ten thousand arrows through his heart!
Liu Dai, Yuan Yi, Zhang and others, seeing that Sun Jian made such a poisonous oath, immediately did not suspect him, and hurriedly pleaded for Sun Jian.
Yuan Shu listened to Sun Jian's oath, his expression was uncertain, and he fell into deep thought!
Yuan Shao looked at Sun Jian's distant back, sneered in his heart, and a touch of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes!
