Chapter Ninety-Six: It's Hard to Be a Monarch

Because of the jade seal, the two sides were deadlocked, Sun Ce insisted on not handing it over, and Zhao Yue insisted on taking it. Originally, he said that he would break his promise when he let him go, but Zhao Yue was not ready to let go.

At this moment, the Meng idiot came from the other side of Wu Mountain, he was dressed in a white robe, his white hair and beard looked like a respected old man, and the kindness on his face made it even more unlikely, he had come to take advantage of the danger of others.

He rode to Zhao Yue's side and whispered a few words to Zhao Yue, and then set his eyes on Sun Ce, who was about to break the net not far away.

"Is this the eldest son of the Tiger of Jiangdong, General Sun Bofu?" The idiot didn't have Zhao Yue's shelf, jumped up directly from the horse, ran to Sun Ce in small steps, bowed, and asked respectfully.

Sun Ce was obviously a little flattered that he could still receive such courtesy when he was besieged, and hurriedly returned the salute: "It's down there, who are you?" ”

"Ha, I'm not a smart person, I'm a military advisor under Zhao Yue's account in Luoyang, and the world knows that I am a descendant of the Mengshi clan during the Qin Dynasty, so I am called a descendant of the Mengshi clan, and my real name is Meng's idiot."

Zhao Yue immediately looked at the words and deeds of the idiot, he was so humble and polite, and began to reflect in his heart why he didn't hold back the impulse in his heart just now.

Meng Zhizi continued: "General Sun Bofu, the foreign minister heard that my ancestor once obtained the jade seal, and now it is on you, I don't know if it's true or not? ”

As soon as he heard the idiot mention the jade seal, Sun Ce obviously raised his vigilance, but because the idiot was more polite, he couldn't get angry directly, so he had to say cautiously: "Not bad." It's in my possession, but I'm never going to give it to someone else. Because of this it is this thing that my father died, and I still need it. In order to let the world know the names of my grandson's father and son! ”

"The general is wrong, dare to ask why his father died?"

Sun Ce gritted his teeth and said: "Under Liu Biao's men, Jiangxia Taishou Huang Zu shot and died!" ”

"No, as far as I can see, my father died because of this jade seal."

Sun Ce was stunned for a moment, but then asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Meng Zhizi stroked his beard and began to persuade: "General Sun Bofu, you think, although this thing is valuable, it can be called a treasure of the Son of Heaven. However, if a person with an ordinary status holds it, he will definitely be remembered by other people with ill intentions, and he will ask for it for the reason of supporting the Han family, and if he does not cooperate at that time, he will definitely get into trouble; Although my father was invincible in the Jiangdong area for a long time, he still failed to cross the river and died in the hands of Huang Zu, all caused by this thing! Since then, the general has not yet succeeded. But insisting on keeping this thing by your side, isn't this a bane? ”

Sun Ce thought carefully for a moment, and then asked, "Then isn't it a bane for you to go over?" Don't lie to me, old man! ”

Meng Idiot shook his head and said, "General Sun Bofu is wrong again. Presumably, my lord has already told you that he is a descendant of the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty, and he is already a mortal enemy of the emperor of the Han family. Retrieving the jade seal of Emperor Qin Xian is really a matter of course. Even if the other princes say it. We don't have to care. Besides, my father-in-law may be a little too ambitious. But his original intention was good, otherwise he would not have decided to let General Sun Bofu go, and promised to treat the general's family well. ”

The idiot was so seductive, and Sun Ce seemed to have no reason to keep the jade seal in his hand anymore. Zhao Yue watched the whole process immediately, feeling a little lost in her heart, why couldn't she do all this on her own, and she had to be fooled. Isn't he inadequate?

He doesn't think so, he believes he has the ability now, but the only thing he lacks is experience.

Zhu Zhi also seemed to persuade Sun Ce on the side that it was better to hand over the jade seal, otherwise it would be a burden to stay by his side. Sun Ce had no choice but to make up his mind, took out a square object wrapped in red satin from his body, and handed it to the Meng idiot with both hands. "I hope Zhao Changjiao won't break his promise."

"I also hope that General Sun Bofu will not break his word." Meng Idiot said with a smile on his face, and then slowly lifted the red cloth, and the moment he saw what was inside, his eyes suddenly radiated a strange light, followed by hot tears sliding down his eyes and cheeks.

Zhao Yue watched this scene from the side, frowning, as if thinking about something.

In this way, because Sun Ce handed over the jade seal, the two of them turned their rivalry into jade silk. Zhao Yue no longer blocked the way of Sun Ce and the others, waved his hand, and let them go.

After the last of Yuan Shu's soldiers left the place, Meng Zhizi handed the jade seal to Zhao Yue and stepped on the horse. Zhao Yue took the red silk wrapped in things, and looked at the treasure inside, sure enough, it was a jade seal carved from crystal clear jade, but a corner was broken for some reason and inlaid with gold.

Everyone cleaned up the battlefield of Wushan, and according to Zhao Yue's plan, the whole army changed into Yuan Shu's military uniform and continued to march towards Wancheng in Jingbei. On the way, the idiot told Zhao Yue about the origin of such a jade seal and the origin of the golden seal: it was actually when the new Han Dynasty was competing for power, the Empress Dowager of the Han Dynasty used this object to hit Wang Mang, causing the jade seal to collapse and kick away.

After that, the idiot said again: "Young master, the minister still has one more matter, I don't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

Zhao Yue sighed at the already gray sky and said softly, "Say it." ”

Only then did the idiot say: "Young master, you have indeed learned a lot and grown a lot since you went up the mountain to worship the minister's door, but the young master still needs to know how to restrain and not be too proud, otherwise, the minister is only afraid of ......."

Zhao Yue nodded, he knew that he was a little too anxious just now, but he also had to admit that he had been a little irritable recently. I don't know what the reason is, I always feel that there is a nameless flame in my heart, but I don't know who to send it. He had done his best to suppress the emotion, but to no avail.

I only heard the idiot continue to say on the side: "Young master, any ordinary person who suddenly jumps into the position of the lord, his heart will be a little swollen, this is inevitable human nature, and it is not something that can be completely resolved by familiarizing himself with the scriptures and history. The minister hopes that the young master can get used to it quickly. ”

Zhao Yue rode on the horse, still just nodding, but didn't say anything.

It seems that he will have to rely on the power of the fool for a long time, because he is deeply aware of his lack of experience. He couldn't even exert the king's joy and anger with ease, and when he came down the mountain, he thought that as long as he learned all the things in the ancient books, he would be able to be a good king.

But now he found that he was still far away, that all that was given to him in the book was all the skin, and that the true essence of the truth of the world could never be clearly recorded in a few words. On the road of learning to be a monarch, he still needs to go further and put in more efforts. (To be continued.) )
