"Lord, this ......!" Cheng Pu and the others hesitated and asked.

Facing the questions of Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others, Sun Jian's embarrassed look was fleeting, and at the same time, he didn't know how to answer in his heart.

"General Cheng, here's how it ......!" And Zhou Yu on the side said in time.

It turned out that when Dong Zhuo fled from Luoyang, he not only burned those big manors in Luoyang, but also burned the palace in one fell swoop.

The burning of Luoyang, in addition to stopping the pursuit of the princes' coalition forces, was more important to try to cover up the atrocities he committed in Luoyang.

Under the impetus of Wang Tianjie, Yuan Shao, who was the leader of the coalition forces, ordered the soldiers of the coalition forces to devote themselves to the fire extinguishing operation in Luoyang.

And it just so happened that Sun Jian was responsible for extinguishing the fire in the palace.

Just when Sun Jian commanded the soldiers of the coalition army to extinguish the embers of the palace, on the way back: "Father, look! At this time, Sun Ce said.

When Sun Jian heard this, he saw an inconspicuous small well in the south of a large hall, and there were five colors of light rising from it.

Sun Jian immediately realized that something might be there, so he immediately ordered the coalition soldiers to return to the camp quickly.

And Sun Jian, Sun Ce, and Zhou Yu, the three of them and a very small number of people walked to the ancient well, and then fished up a woman's body from the well, which had been dead for a long time on the surface, but the strange thing was that the corpse was not rotten, and from the clothes on the body, it was obvious that it was a person in the palace.

At this moment, he suddenly found that this woman was carrying a bag of brocade, Sun Ce went down with it, removed the bag, and found that it was a small vermilion box inside, locked with a gold lock, and when he opened his eyes, he found that it was a jade seal inside, and took it out to see it, this jade seal: four inches in circumference, engraved with five dragons; a corner is missing, and it is set with gold; There is a seal text with eight character clouds: "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity!" ”

"Heirloom Jade Seal!" Zhou Yu was surprised when he saw it.

"Gongjin, this is the jade seal of the country!" Sun Jian was also surprised when he heard this.

"My lord, this is the jade seal of the country.

This jade is also called He's Bi, it is the former Bian and under the Jing Mountain, see the phoenix perched on the stone, carry into the Chu Wen King, solve it, get the jade, Qin twenty-six years, make the good work for the seal, Li Si seal this eight characters on it, twenty-eight years, the first emperor patrolled to Dongting Lake, the wind and waves are great, the boat will be overturned, rush to the jade seal in the lake and stop, to thirty-six years, the first emperor patrolled to Huayin, someone held the seal to cover the road, and the servant said: 'hold this to return to the ancestral dragon,' the words are not seen, this seal returned to Qin, next year, the first emperor collapsed, and then the child will sacrifice the jade seal to the Han Gaozu, Later, Wang Mang usurped and rebelled, and the Empress Dowager Xiaoyuan beat Wang Xun and Su Xian, collapsed its corner, inlaid it with gold, and obtained this treasure in Yiyang, and passed on the throne to this day.

Therefore, the jade seal is a symbol of imperial power.

Recently, I heard that the ten permanent servants were in turmoil, robbed the young emperor out of the north, and lost this treasure when he returned to the palace.

And Dong Zhuo regretted that he had never been able to get the jade seal of the country, but he didn't expect to be puppeted by the lord! Zhou Yu explained.

"Father, the child also heard that this is a divine right, and whoever obtains this thing will have a ninety-five grade!" Sun Ce was pleasantly surprised.

Sun Jian was also ecstatic when he heard this, but because the vermilion box was too much of an eyesore, fortunately, he found that there was a golden brocade in the vermilion box, which was obviously used to wrap the jade seal of the country, so after carefully wrapping the jade seal of the country, he handed it to Sun Ce and told Sun Ce to take care of it carefully and not to lose it.

……。

Zhou Yu slowly told the truth of the matter, and at the same time Zhou Yu said with a straight face: "General Cheng, General Huang, General Han, the reason why even the generals have concealed it is completely Zhou Yu's intention.

Because the jade seal of the country is a trivial matter, it is not easy for outsiders to know about the jade seal of the country outside the lord, otherwise it is likely to pose a great threat to the safety of the lord.

The stakes are very high, in order not to leak the news, so Yu asked the lord to hide something from the generals, and I hope that the generals will forgive me.

If the generals want to blame, Zhou Yu is willing to bear it alone! Zhou Yu took the initiative to take responsibility for concealing the crime.

Sun Jian, Sun Ce, father and son, all looked at Zhou Yu gratefully when they heard this.

If these words are said by Sun Jian. Although it is possible, it is inevitable that Cheng Pu and the others will have a shadow psychology of Sun Jian's distrust of them in their hearts, which is what Sun Jian did not hesitate to see, which is why Sun Jian subconsciously showed an embarrassed look in an instant when Cheng Pu and others were puzzled and asked.

This is not an explanation, and it is even worse if it is not explained.

But now that Zhou Yu takes the initiative to tell the reason for the matter and take responsibility, then the effect is completely different, as a subordinate, his duty is to protect his lord's thoughtfulness at all costs.

And what a big deal it is to get the jade seal of the country, as Zhou Yu said, once this news is leaked, then Sun Jian's safety will inevitably be seriously threatened.

At the same time, Cheng Pu and the others also know very well that Zhou Yu is irreplaceable for Sun Jian's father and son.

And Zhou Yu also has enough weight to prompt Sun Jian to hide the truth from everyone to ensure that Sun Jian and their Sun family are complete, and everything is logical.

"Whatever General Zhou said, in order to ensure that the lord is thorough, he must hide the truth from everyone, and this is a last resort, what a crime!" Seeing this, Cheng Pu and the others hurriedly said.

"But General Zhou, this jade seal has been a symbol of imperial power since ancient times, but now it is fortunate to be obtained by the lord, and the lord will be on the land of the Ninety-Five in the future.

If you just give it away as collateral, is it worth it? Now that he knew that this thing was a jade seal of the country, Cheng Pu questioned Zhou Yu's intention to use it as collateral to borrow soldiers.

"General Cheng, this heirloom jade seal is important, but it is a dead thing, the lord can not bring the slightest help to get it now, even if we can hide it for a while, we can't hide it for a lifetime, once the news leaks out, it will bring endless disasters to the lord.

And now the lord still does not have any power base, but the world is divided, and the situation of the princes conquering hegemony has begun.

For the lord, there is no longer any buffer time, if the lord does not catch up with this last chance this time, the lord will definitely withdraw from the ranks of the princes to conquer the hegemony early.

And you must know that at present, Wang Tianjie is secretly supporting the lord, but in the end, the lord ends in such a disgraceful way, which will not only make Wang Tianjie look down on him, but also may make the lord a laughing stock for future generations.

But? With the heirloom jade seal, the lord can instantly get the military base that he needs most to open up forces and dominate the world.

As General Cheng said, if you can get the jade seal of the country, you will definitely climb to the land of the Ninth Five-Year Plan in the future, but if you want to climb the land of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, it is undoubtedly a fantasy if you don't have enough strength to help.

Rather than having a dead thing that symbolizes the imperial power, and being frightened every day for fear of leaking the news, and even launching the ranks of the princes to conquer the hegemony early to bury the hegemony of the lord's life, then it is better to use this dead thing in exchange for the strength that the lord needs most now, and then grow rapidly and achieve the dream of the lord's hegemony.

Which is right and which is wrong, General Cheng should be very clear in his heart!

Besides, if the lord is fortunate enough to finally ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Honor in the future, won't this heirloom jade seal naturally return to the lord's hands again?

As the so-called; Where there is gain, there is loss.

However, when we have to make a choice in the face of historical decisions, sometimes we can make a greater choice if we lose the choice! Zhou Yu said.

"Cheng Pu is ashamed, thank you General Zhou for his teachings, Cheng Pu has been taught!" Cheng Pu, who heard the words, immediately bowed down and pleaded guilty.

"Where is General Cheng, Zhou Yu knows that General Cheng is thinking about everything for the Lord and the Lord, and what is the reason for the crime!" Zhou Yu said with a smile.

"Justice, that's a good point.

Although the symbolic significance of this heirloom jade seal is significant, if it remains with us, it will be a worthless dead thing, and it will bring us unforeseen disasters.

Yan Guo still has to leave a voice, not to mention us.

I, Sun Jian, must do a vigorous hegemony, no matter how successful or defeated we are in the end, we must also let future generations remember that history once had our existence, and this is enough.

Therefore, Jian is willing to mortgage the jade seal in exchange for our future! At this time, Sun Jian's expression was firm, and he said bluntly.

"My lord....

The lord can have such a magnanimous mind and look down on the gains and losses, Zhou Yu is convinced! Zhou Yu hugged his fists excitedly.

And Sun Ce, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others on the side heard Sun Jian's words, and their hearts were boiling.

"Lord, in fact, the reason why Zhou Yu proposed to mortgage this heirloom jade seal is not just to exchange for the apparent strength, but its real purpose is to achieve the ...... of killing birds with one stone!"
