159 Sun Jian's jade seal

It turned out that after Liu Bei defeated Dong Zhuo, he knew that it was not interesting to stay any longer, and after defeating Luoyang, Liu Bei's reputation had earned enough. If you really want to fight again, the land of Guanzhong has always been dangerous, where is it so easy to fight, even if it is really fought, Emperor Han Xian will come back, and what benefit will Liu Bei have, so he arranged his men and horses and sent a letter to himself.

In the letter, he wrote: "Liaodong Taishou Gongsun Du, self-proclaimed Liaodong Marquis and Pingzhou Mu, crossed the sea to attack the coastal counties of Qingzhou, collected the counties of Donglai, set up a camp to assassinate the state, and asked the lord to return to the division as soon as possible to rescue. ”

Sun and Liu, the coalition defeated Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian was still there and complacent, but first Yuan Shu cut off food for Sun Jian, so that Sun Jian had to go to Yuan Shu to accompany him carefully, and then Gongsun Du came to cross the sea to attack Qingzhou, Liu Bei had to go back to the division to rescue, how could Sun Jian not be angry.

Historically, Gongsun Du really crossed the sea to collect the counties of Donglai and set up camp in the state to assassinate the history, but it was the chaos in Qingzhou, and the troops were sent under the condition of yellow turbans everywhere, and now Qingzhou has been pacified by Liu Bei, no one knows whether Gongsun Du will come again, Liu Bei pulled Gongsun Du out, purely to find an excuse to return to Qingzhou.

Sun Jian said angrily: "Gongsun Du Pifu, dare to do this." ”

Liu Bei also said: "Gongsun thief, it is enough to call himself Pingzhou Mu, and he dares to call himself the Marquis of Liaodong without authorization, even if he doesn't come to attack my Qingzhou, I will also send troops to Liaodong and arrest Gongsun Du to ask for the crime." ”

This is still a legitimate question, the Kwantung princes rose together, calling themselves generals and captains, and recommending each other to assassinate history and Taishou, there are not a few, but there are really few people who dare to claim their own titles, especially this kind of title with a place name.

The name of Liaodong Marquis is really too sensitive, and it has no practical use, just like Liu Bei, he is not the Marquis of Qi and the King of Qi, so Qingzhou will not listen to him. Now is not a completely chaotic time, the people's hearts are in the Han Dynasty, and it has not yet reached Geng Chun to persuade Emperor Guangwu, everyone is following you for the sake of "climbing dragon scales and attaching phoenix wings", if your old man is no longer tense and does not claim to be the emperor, believe it or not, the big guy will break up and run away.

Gongsun Du called himself the Marquis of Liaodong, which is too bad, which is equivalent to establishing a country in Liaodong, but this country is a Hou country, not an empire. But no matter how you say it, if Gongsun Du is charged with "vainly trying to split the great motherland", it will definitely not be able to escape.

The other Liu Bei can still bear it, this crime, Liu Bei really can't stand it.

When Sun Jian heard this, he was furious again, my Sun Jian is the Marquis of Wucheng, and his Gongsun Du dared to call himself the Marquis of Liaodong, and also said: "Xuande is reasonable, and I am also willing to send troops with Gongsun Du to fight against Gongsun Du." ”

Liu Bei said: "Kill chickens with cattle slaughtering knives, Brother Wentai's elite soldiers, don't dare to ask for it, and ask Brother Wentai to give me more of the prisoners captured from Dong Thief, so that they can carry grain, grass, and baggage, so that my men and horses can raise enough strength, it is enough." ”

Sun Jian said with a smile: "I'm worried that these people are wasting food, I thought that once the food is exhausted, I will kill them all, and if Xuande wants it, it will be okay to give it to you." ”

Liu Bei was overjoyed, he had already sent someone to understand that most of these arrested Dong Zhuo soldiers were originally the forbidden army of Luoyang, such as the Second Army of the North and South, the Eighth Captain of Xiyuan, and some of them were recruited by He Jin later, because they were not Dong Zhuo's descendants, so Dong Zhuo left them behind to delay the Sun and Liu coalition forces.

These soldiers, but they are all the elite soldiers collected by the Luoyang Imperial Court after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, once they are completely subdued by Liu Bei, they are a big help, even if they stay as coolies, they are also a group of strong coolies, which are better than being killed by Sun Jian.

Liu Bei arched his hand and said: "Then I will thank Brother Wentai, I originally wanted to make a big deal with Wentai, but today I have to temporarily separate, wait for me to capture and kill Gongsun Du, and then go west to Brother Wentai." ”

The two parted ways and returned to the camp, and Liu Bei ordered someone to pack up their baggage and prepare to return to Qingzhou.

Sun Jian returned to his tent, put away his anger, retreated, opened a box in the corner of the tent, and carefully took out a small vermilion box from the box, which was locked with a golden lock. Sun Jian opened the golden lock, inside the box, is a treasure seal carved from jade, four inches in circumference, engraved with five dragons, missing a corner, inlaid with gold, eight seal characters on the front, is: ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang, these eight words, is the jade seal of the country.

I have to say that there is really no place to reason for this thing of fate, obviously Sun Jian and Liu Bei sent people to clean the palace, but this jade seal was discovered by Sun Jian's subordinates and dedicated to Sun Jian. Because the jade seal of the country is very important, Sun Jian found an excuse to kill this subordinate in order to keep it secret, and now in Sun Jian's army, only a few people, such as Sun Ben, Wu Jing, Cheng Pu and others, know that the jade seal of the country has fallen into the hands of Sun Jian, and Liu Bei does not know.

"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang, ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang, ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang......"

Sun Jian was alone, sitting in the big tent, with a look of intoxication in his eyes, carefully holding the heirloom jade seal with one hand and gently stroking it with the other. He kept whispering. I read it over and over again, and I don't know how many times, but I didn't get bored at all.

I secretly thought to myself in my heart, I didn't expect that I actually got this seal in Luoyang, what does this mean, could it be......

Thinking of this, Sun Jian almost didn't dare to think about it. After all, the Han family has been in the world for 400 years, and it is deeply rooted, and there are examples of Guangwu Zhongxing, no one knows whether this great Han Dynasty will have a day of Sanxing in the future.

Sun Jian came from a humble background, and he was originally going to fight for his life, but also to help the Han family so as to improve his family. But Sun Jian never thought that he would get the heirloom jade seal, and he couldn't help but think, the heirloom jade seal fell into my hands, does it imply that the luck of the Han family has run out. Liu Xuande and I both sent soldiers and horses to the palace, but the jade seal of the country was obtained for me. The jade seal of the country is ordered by heaven, on behalf of the mandate of heaven, I got the jade seal of the country, this is not the mandate of heaven, what is it, if the Han family is not exhausted, this jade seal of the country should be obtained by Liu Xuande, the Han clan.

Once the thinking diverged, Sun Jian thought again, I wanted to continue the crusade against Dong Zhuo with Liu Xuande, but Gongsun Du of Liaodong sent troops to Qingzhou, forcing Liu Bei to return to the division, I was alone, I could only give up halfway, if there was no Gongsun Du, maybe it wouldn't be long before Liu Xuande and I could welcome back the Son of Heaven, but Gongsun Du was at this time, when I got the jade seal of the country, I sent troops to attack Qingzhou. This kind of coincidence is not a destiny.

It is also to blame Liu Bei for making up the news that is not good, Gongsun Du is far away in Liaodong, he will not send troops early, and he will not send troops late, but he sent troops when Sun Jian picked up the jade seal of the country, which really gave Sun Jian a big hint. Without Gongsun Du sending troops, Sun and Liu's combined army continued to march into the army, defeated Dong Zhuo, and welcomed the Son of Heaven back to Luoyang, Sun Jian naturally wanted to dedicate the jade seal of the country to the Son of Heaven. But now as soon as Gongsun Du sent troops, Liu Bei wanted to return to Qingzhou, Sun Jian couldn't fight alone, and Sun Jian could only keep the jade seal of the country in his own hands.

Under such coincidences, it is no wonder that Sun Jian is cranky.

The next day, Liu Bei set off, Sun Jian came to see him off, and the two held hands and said goodbye in tears.

Sun Jian and Liu Bei's backgrounds are not high, Liu Bei is more or less a relative of the Han family, and he has a grandfather who has been filial piety and a county order. Sun Jian's background can only be brought over with a sentence "After covering Sun Wu". The two of them are both martial arts, not Confucian families, and now, the two of them have joined forces to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and they also have the friendship of comrades-in-arms, and they have married baby relatives, and they have made appointments with their children's in-laws, so they are very close.

Liu Bei wanted to remind Sun Jian several times, wanting to tell him not to attack Liu Biao, but he felt that it was too much, and finally had to say: "Brother Wentai is brave and good at fighting, and he always braves arrows and stones and charges into battle. It's just that the so-called son of a daughter, who can't sit down, on the battlefield, has no eyes for swords and guns, and Brother Wentai still has to be more careful in the future. ”

After speaking, Liu Bei couldn't help but want to hit his ten or eight big mouths, and said in his heart What am I reminding Sun Jian to do here, in case Sun Jian doesn't die, wouldn't I have one more powerful opponent.

Sun Jian didn't think so, but he knew that Liu Bei was also well-intentioned, so he couldn't refute it, so he just said: "What Xuande said is very true, but if I don't risk the arrow stone myself, I am afraid that the soldiers will not have to die." ”

Seeing Sun Jian like this, Liu Bei didn't know whether to be happy, whether to be happy, or to be happy.

So, Liu Bei didn't say much more, anyway, the words had already been said, Sun Jian didn't listen, he couldn't ask Liu Bei to tie up Sun Jian, as the saying goes, "Good words, it's hard to persuade damn ghosts." ”

The two said goodbye with tears, watching Liu Bei go away, Sun Jian thought about the scene of Liu Bei sacrificing to the emperors of the Han family, and remembered that he had won the jade seal of the country, and was silent for a long time.
