Chapter 691: The Jade Seal of the Country

Hua'an was naturally unwilling to follow in the footsteps of his ancestors, and in order to recover his homeland, he finally died of grief, so he had to think more about himself.

Fortunately, over the years, the Great Jin Dynasty has experienced the rebellion of Wang Dun and Su Jun, and it has not dared to dispose of the border generals at will, and the frequent invasion of foreign enemies also requires generals with military command ability to maintain the rule of the Great Jin Dynasty.

But Hua'an's peace and quietness does not mean that the imperial court has completely assured him, on the contrary, the imperial court is paying attention to Hua'an's every move all the time to prevent Hua'an from having different intentions, but Hua'an has never done anything unfavorable to the Jin court, for this reason, it is still reused by the imperial court, besides, Huan Wen and Yin Hao's strength is also extremely strong, Hua'an's storage zĂ i, can compete with these two generals, so as to maintain the balance between the generals of the Great Jin, for the long-term peace and stability of the Great Jin, there is only good, no harm.

As for the three reasons put forward by Zhang Yu not to pursue the Yan army, Hua'an only cares about the last one, that is, the rabbit and the dog cook the bird and hide the bow, after all, this one is the biggest threat to Hua'an at the moment, and the first reason, Hua'an will not worry at all, because, the strongest main army of Wei has been destroyed, and Ran Min himself has been captured by the Yan army, a Wei State without Ran Min and the elite beggar army is not to be afraid at all, at least, Hua'an has enough strength to restrain him, so that he does not have to worry about the sudden defection of Wei.

As for the second reason, Hua An didn't care even more, when he crossed the river to attack Hanoi County, Hua An had already thought it through. The Northern Expedition can only be a matter of one's own, Huan Wen and Yin Hao are unreliable, for this reason, they never expected the Yangzhou Army and the Jingzhou Army to come to help.

Hua'an felt that during the period when he entered Hebei, Yin Hao and Huan Wen would not stop, Huan Wen's strength was originally higher than Yin Hao, but the two armies of Pu Hong and Yao Xiang all took refuge in Yin Hao, therefore. Today's Yangzhou Legion is strong. The strength is by no means under the Jingzhou Army, but Pu Hong and Yao Xiang are both aliens, and it is doubtful whether they will really surrender to Yin Hao.

"Zhang Yu. Your analysis makes a lot of sense. Our army is currently in the Hebei area. The foundation is not very stable, and it is true that you can't become a fat man in one bite, so you can first help the Wei State that is about to fall to stabilize the several counties south of Yecheng. And then Xu Tu good strategy. Hua An said softly, agreeing with Zhang Yu's analysis.

Zhang Yu was overjoyed when he heard this, and hugged his fists and said: "The general is wise, so his subordinates can rest assured." ”

Hua'an can see that Zhang Yu is very loyal to himself, and this loyalty even exceeds that of the Great Jin Dynasty, that is to say, in Zhang Yu's heart, Hua'an is more important than the Great Jin Dynasty, and for the sake of Hua'an's personal safety, Zhang Yu can not consider the interests of the Great Jin Dynasty.

"Report, General Qiyu, the Wei envoy team has arrived at Chaoge, just outside the camp." At this moment, the team of Wei envoys arrived outside the main camp.

Hua An was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Please, please." ”

"Yes, General." The junior colonel answered and went to give the order.

Soon, the envoy of Wei took Ran Min's son Ran Ming into the Chinese army tent in Hua'an.

"The lower officer meets General Hua." The envoy clasped his fists and saluted Hua'an.

Hua An raised his hand slightly, and said softly: "No need to be polite, the messenger please get up." After speaking, he looked at the young man beside the messenger.

"Dare to ask Wei Envoy, who is this son?" Hua An naturally knew that this young man must be Ran Min's son, but in order to confirm, he still had to ask.

"General Huihua, this is Ranming, the king of Pengcheng of my Great Wei, who was sent to Jiankang City as a hostage as the sincerity of my Great Wei to join the Great Jin Dynasty." The envoy of Wei clenched his fists and said.

Hua An nodded when he heard this, and carefully looked at the young man in front of him, only to see that this Ran Ming's face was immature, without any feared domineering, which was very different from his father Ran Min, maybe because he was too young!

"Dare to ask the Wei envoy, the jade seal of the country has been brought." Huaan asked again.

The envoy of Wei hurriedly responded: "Brought, naturally it was brought, come here, quickly present it." After speaking, he motioned to the servants behind him and presented the jade seal of the country to Hua'an.

Soon, a Wei servant took out a square package and opened it in front of Hua An.

"Oh, this is the heirloom jade seal." Hua An gently picked up the heirloom jade seal and asked softly.

"General Huiyu, this is the heirloom jade seal that has been regarded as the most precious by the kings of all dynasties since Qin Shi Huang." Wei envoy Zhengse said.

Hua An nodded, and carefully looked at the jade seal in his hand, only to see the entire jade seal of the country, the workmanship is extremely exquisite, four inches in circumference, five dragons on it, and the front seal is engraved 'Ordered by the sky. In addition, the corner of the jade seal is inlaid with gold, and the right side of the shoulder of the jade seal is engraved with the word "Great Wei Shou Han Chuan Guo Xi" is engraved with four big characters of "Mandate of Heaven".

Such a finely carved jade seal and inlaid with gold in a corner, there is no doubt that Hua'an has long heard various rumors about the jade seal of the country, and the jade seal in front of him is exactly the same as the rumors, especially a corner inlaid with gold, which is enough to prove this.

"General, this is indeed a jade seal of the country, it must not be wrong." Zhang Yu, who was in the big tent, looked at the heirloom jade seal in front of him and said softly.

Hua An smiled and asked softly, "What, you also know about the jade seal of the country." ”

Zhang Yu replied: "Don't hide it from the general, the subordinates only know a little bit about it, according to legend, this heirloom jade seal is taken from the bi of the Heshi, after the unification of the world of the Qin State, obtained the bi of the Heshi of the Zhao State, Qin Shi Huang ordered Li Si to relay the 'order to the sky, Both longevity Yongchang 'eight big characters, and let Xianyang's best jade workers on the and the family of the bi to carry out fine grinding, carved for the seal, since then, the jade seal of the country was born, after the death of Qin, the jade seal of the country fell into the hands of Han Gaozu, and then, the Western Han Dynasty relatives Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty to establish a new dynasty, to the Han Dynasty Queen Mother to pass the jade seal, the queen mother angrily smashed the jade seal of the country to the ground, and collapsed a corner of the jade seal, Wang Mang ordered the craftsman to make up for it with gold, since then the jade seal of the country has one more corner inlaid with gold, and then Cao Pi usurped the Han to establish the Wei State, is to make people carved on the shoulder of the jade sealThe words "Great Wei by the Han Dynasty to pass on the national seal" to confirm that it is not a "usurper Han" also, Shi Le destroyed the former Zhao, get the jade seal of the country, it is even more ingenious, on the right side of the jade seal engraved "Heavenly Mandate Shi" four big characters, now, the jade seal in front of the country, and the rumors are exactly the same, naturally can not be fake. ”

Hua An was overjoyed when he heard this, looked at the envoy of Wei, and said with a smile: "The envoy of Wei has worked hard, let's go down and rest first!" Ben will see the jade seal of the country for the first time, and when he plays all night, he will send a large army to escort the Wei envoy and his party and the jade seal of the country tomorrow to Jiankang City. ”

The envoy of Wei hesitated, clasped his fists and said: "The lower official will retire, and after speaking, he will leave the big tent of the Chinese army with Ran Ming."

After the envoy of Wei left, only Hua An and Zhang Yu were left in the big tent of the Chinese army, Hua An sat on the throne of the big tent, carefully admired the jade seal in front of him, and sighed from time to time.

Zhang Yu saw that Hua An was quite interested in the jade seal of the country, and hugged his fists and said: "The general can know the meaning of this jade seal of the country. ”

"Meaning, what does it mean?" Hua An then said.

Zhang Yu pondered for a moment and whispered: "The jade seal of the country is a divine gift of imperial power, a token of orthodoxy and legitimacy. ”

"Haha! Those who have to pass on the jade seal of the country will win the world, but I'm afraid it's not so exaggerated! Now that the jade seal of the country is in the hands of the general, can the general get the world now? Hua An said jokingly.

Zhang Yu was shocked when he heard this, and said softly with his fists: "With the current strength of the general, as long as you manage it well, it is not difficult to win the world. After speaking, he looked carefully outside the big tent.

When Hua An heard this, his expression tightened, and he reprimanded softly: "Zhang Yu, you are talking nonsense, you will be loyal to the Great Jin Dynasty, how can you do such an unfaithful and unrighteous thing, this matter must not be mentioned again." ”

"General, now that the Great Jin Dynasty has existed in name only, just like the Zhou Tianzi of the Warring States, for the livelihood of the people in the world, the general does not have to be confined to the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, and when the time is right, he can completely replace him." Zhang Yu then whispered.

Zhang Yu is telling the truth, today's Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty is still a child, and he does not have the ability to control the border generals at all, and the border generals of the Great Jin Dynasty are completely in a semi-independent state, and they only belong to the Great Jin in name.

However, even so, Hua'an will never privately swallow the jade seal of the country, and compete with the court of the Great Jin Dynasty, because once he privately swallows the jade seal of the country, it will definitely cause the dissatisfaction of Huan Wen and Yin Hao, if the two armies join forces to fight, Hua'an is difficult to deal with, besides, there are Yan Dynasty coalition forces in the north, and Liangguo and Tuyuhun in the northwest, although Hua'an is strong, but it cannot fight against so many forces at the same time, and once such a situation occurs, it is the people of the world who suffer.

In Hua'an's heart, the heirloom jade seal is completely a hot potato, and if he privately swallows the heirloom jade seal, he will become the target of the public.

However, Hua An could see that Zhang Yu was very loyal to himself, and for this reason, he did not accuse him, but looked at the heirloom jade seal, and said with a smile: "The heirloom jade seal is just a stone, Wei has the heirloom jade seal, isn't it still a monarch who was captured alive, and the country's fortunes are in jeopardy, besides, have you thought about it, if Ben will privately swallow the heirloom jade seal, what will the court think, what will the people of the world think, when the time comes, people all over the world will think that Ben will be a rebel, Huan Wen and Yin Hao will take this opportunity to lead the army to crusade against our army, In addition, the monarchs of the Yan Dynasty and other countries will also lead the army to attack our army in order to get the jade seal of the country, and at that time, our army will be embattled, don't you still have to obediently hand over the jade seal of the country?
