Volume 1 The First Entry into the Three Kingdoms Chapter 56 Got the Official Seal by Chance

It is said that after Cheng Zhiyuan was escorted back to Zhuo County by Liu Yi and others, he has been detained in a prison in the county. The prison was built when Sun Fei and his son were there, but at the beginning of the construction, it was not simply to imprison prisoners, but mainly to imprison the ordinary people who did not obey the discipline of Sun Fei and his son, and those who were really guilty of the most heinous crimes spent money to buy off Sun Fei and his son, resulting in this prison being nicknamed "Innocence Prison" by the people, which means that this is the hell of those "innocent people".

This innocence prison is near the Arsenal Division, covering an area of about a few hundred square meters, not very large, the whole prison has a total of 20 single rooms for prisoners, each single room is separated by a fence wall made of logs, after Liu Yi took office, he released all the people in the prison, and since Liu Yi took office, there has been no major case of murder and arson in Zhuo County, for some petty theft and petty criminals, Liu Yi is usually punished in court with a board, and it is not worth being imprisoned. In this way, the prison of innocence slowly becomes useless.

Seeing that the innocence prison had been idle for a long time, Liu Yi transformed this place into a warehouse, and some of the firewood and iron ore used by the Arsenal Division were stored here, and each single room was separated from each other, which was very convenient for the distribution and management of these materials, so Liu Yi did not demolish those single rooms at that time.

In order to detain Cheng Zhiyuan, Liu Yi deliberately ordered someone to clean up a single room, and then sent people to guard it 24 hours a day, the reason for this is not that Cheng Zhiyuan is afraid that he will run away, but that he will not be able to think about it for a while and commit suicide, wouldn't that be cheaper for him.

It is said that the soldiers who guarded Cheng Zhiyuan were all soldiers who defended the city before, and the relatives of some of those soldiers died under Cheng Zhiyuan's army, so at this time, when they saw Cheng Zhiyuan in prison, they couldn't wait to go up and break his body into pieces, fortunately Liu Yi had already ordered, otherwise I am afraid that Cheng Zhiyuan would have died in prison, but although Liu Yi ordered the soldiers to kill Cheng Zhiyuan, he did not directly say that he was not allowed to abuse him, so those soldiers would whip Cheng Yiban with a whip to vent their personal grievances.

Because Liu Yi's order was in front, everyone didn't dare to be too ruthless, just like that, in the face of everyone's abuse, Cheng Zhiyuan could barely grit his teeth and hold on, but after a long time, everyone tortured Cheng Zhiyuan more and more, which can be described as "full of tricks", and in the end, all the tricks of tattooing words on the face and sprinkling pepper water on the wound were used, and in the end, Cheng Zhiyuan was tortured by everyone and couldn't bear it. So in order to beg for mercy, he took out a seal from his underwear and handed it to the soldiers who were about to pull out their nails with iron tongs.

The soldiers guarding had never seen the seal, but after seeing that one of the four characters engraved on the seal was the word "Han", they knew that this thing was definitely not a mortal thing, so they hurriedly handed it over to Liu Yi.

Everyone happened to meet Zhang Fei who was about to return to Liu Yi's house on the way to Liu Yi's house, Zhang Fei saw that everyone was in a hurry and stopped and asked, everyone handed over the seal in their hands to Zhang Fei and reported the incident, Zhang Fei listened to the order to reward these soldiers and then hurriedly returned to Liu's house with the seal.

"Lord, what do you tell me what this seal is for? It can't be a token of communication between these Yellow Turbans and their Bishop Zhang Jiao, who is a Raushzi, right? Zhang Fei stood in front of Liu Yi and asked excitedly.

When Liu Yi heard this, he carefully looked at the seal in his hand, and saw that this seal was a copper seal, with a printing surface of about 2 cm x 2 cm, a seal pad 3 or 4 cm high, and a turtle was carved on the top of the seal.

"I don't really see what this thing is for! Uncle Lu, you are well-informed, please help me take a look." After Liu Yi finished speaking, he handed the seal in his hand to Lu Duyou.

Seeing this, Lu Duyou on the side hurriedly took the seal in Liu Yi's hand, and then took a closer look at it and said: "This seal is full of engraved Yin characters, if you want to see what is engraved, you need to use ink to stamp the Yin text on the paper to become Yang text to be able to identify it." ”

Liu Yi heard the words and hurriedly asked the people to take the paper and ink, and the three of them did not enter the house, but squatted directly on the ground, spread the paper on the stone brick ground under their feet, and then dipped the seal full of words on the ink and printed it directly on the paper.

I saw that the white paper in front of the three of them was printed with the words "Dahan Prefecture Officials" at this time, and although the font was crooked and ugly, it was clearly legible.

"Holy! Dahan Prefecture Officials! Isn't this a stab! Lu Duyou was surprised.

This official seal is the treasure that Cheng Zhiyuan and Liu Bei said they got.

"Huh?" Liu Yi and Zhang Fei were also shocked when they heard this, although they were also surprised when they saw these four words just now, but only because they could see from these four words that this seal was an official seal and not a private seal of the Yellow Turban Army, the two of them did not know much about the meaning of the four words "Dahan Prefecture Official".

"Thorn Shiyin? Aren't you, old man, shaking us off? Zhang Fei shouted in disbelief.

Seeing Zhang Fei's disbelieving expression, Lu Duyou suddenly became a little anxious.

"You kid knows a! Look at these four words! This "Great Han" represents the current imperial court, and the "state officials" represent the governors of the state! I've seen the document of the assassin's order at the county keeper before, and the words printed on it are exactly the same as this one! ”

Hearing this, Liu Yi on the side couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

"Uncle Lu, if that's the case, why hasn't the little nephew ever seen it? After all, the little nephew is also the head of a county! ”

Lu Duyou looked at Liu Yi, and an expression of you being a turtle suddenly appeared on his face.

"Do you think Lord Thorn Shi is so idle, giving orders from county to county? All the orders below the county level are directly issued by the county guard, and you still want to trespass on your little county magistrate? ”

Liu Yi's old face turned red when he was damaged by Lu Du.

"Cough~ I said Uncle Lu, how could it come to Cheng Zhiyuan's hand when you said that this official seal is such an important thing" Liu Yiqing coughed to hide his embarrassment just now.

Because Liu Yi and others closed the city gate in order to defend the city before, and during that time, almost no one could enter and leave the county except for the detective horse who spying on the military situation, so Liu Yi and their news were very ill-informed, and even Cheng Zhiyuan and others killed the assassin Guo Xun.

Compared with Liu Yi and others, Lu Duyou, who is in the county government, is much more well-informed, and Lu Duyou briefly told the two about the murder of the assassination, and the two of them understood it after hearing it.

"Old man, since the assassin is dead and this official seal is still in our hands, do you say that we are holding this seal to order the counties?" The more Zhang Fei spoke, the more excited he became.

Not only did Zhang Fei think so, but Liu Yi on the side began to have the idea of assassinating the history after he heard that this was the official seal of the assassination historian.

When Lu Duyou heard this, he glanced at Zhang Fei, and replied angrily: "Do you think that the people in the other counties are like you, and they don't know anything?" In addition to you, I am afraid that the people of the entire Youzhou will know about the murder of Lord Thorn Shi, and now that the new Thorn Shi has not yet taken office, suddenly someone brought a document with the seal of Thorn Shi to give an order, do you think others can believe it? Besides, it's no secret that Cheng Zhiyuan was captured by you, when the time comes, as long as those who have a heart simply ponder, they will know that you are making trouble behind your back, and then sue you for a forged official seal, I'm afraid you won't be able to cut off ten heads! ”

"Damn! Then according to what you say, this thing is useless, it's still a disaster-inducing goods, I look at that, it's really not good, let's throw it away, right? ”

"Hey~ No matter how bad it is, this is also an official seal, maybe we can use it in the future!" At this time, Liu Yi had already thought about how to use this official seal in the future.

After the three of them discussed it together, Liu Yi ordered someone to bring a brocade handkerchief, and then wrapped the official seal with a handkerchief and put it into his arms.

The next day, Liu Yi and others held the most solemn funeral for the dead soldiers as scheduled, and the reason why this funeral can be called the most grand is because the people of the county came to see off those soldiers, and the scene was very tragic.

These martyrs were buried in the martyrs' cemetery that has been prepared, the cemetery is surrounded by evergreen pines dug from elsewhere as if guarding the heroic souls in the courtyard, there is a stone statue of two people more than ten meters high in front of the cemetery, the stone statue is carved with the scene of the soldiers fighting with the enemy, because the time is tight and the carving workers are usually handicrafted, so the carving is not so vivid, although so, but when everyone comes to the statue can still feel the tragedy and tragedy of the battlefield fighting, There is a flat place under the statue carved with small characters, which records the heroic deeds of these soldiers to protect their families and defend the country.

Liu Yi beheaded Cheng Zhiyuan in front of the martyrs' graves according to his previous oath, Cheng Zhiyuan did not beg for mercy too much before he died, it seemed to be a little more relieved, after all, he was mistreated by the guards before, and now it can be regarded as a relief for Cheng to die happily.

After burying these martyrs, Liu Yi also ordered that every year on October 21, the people of the whole city should come to the martyrs' cemetery to sweep the tombs and pay tribute to the heroes.

After everything was done, Lu Duyou stayed in the city for a few days, and then reluctantly said goodbye to everyone, as said before, Lu Duyou left the 2,000 soldiers he brought to Liu Yi, and he only took a dozen accompanying guards on the way back to the county.
