The secret room of the Juyi Hall, one table, two pots of tea, and Wang Jin sat on the main seat. Zhu Wu on the left, Wen Huanzhang, Xu Guanzhong, Ma Ling, Qiao Daoqing on the right.

Last night, Wang Jin led a team to return to Liangshan from Bianliang City, Tokyo, settled Master Li in the family compound, and hurriedly found the quartermaster for a meeting early in the morning.

The reason why I sneaked up on the secret room was because I was researching a treasure. There is an open package on the table, revealing a carved dragon and a phoenix, a boxy jade box, the lid has been opened, and a simple jade seal is being played with, with a dragon and a phoenix carved on it, crystal clear, scorching.

This piece of jade seal has warm tentacles, carefully examining the ancient seal and gold inlay on it. When Wang Jin got it from Shi Qian, his hands almost shook off the ground. This seems to be the heirloom jade seal of the Qin Dynasty, but it has been changed by time and does not know the goods. He said that the gold and silver utensils were too heavy, and when he saw that this piece of jade was good, he took it. By the way, he also took some precious items such as gold, silver, jewelry and so on from the palace.

"Tell me a few people! Is this thing real or fake? ”

Wang Jin drank tea while looking at the military advisor who was pondering after playing.

"Owner, where did this thing come from?" Wen Huanzhang looked directly at the jade seal and wiped the sweat on his forehead. I don't know if it's nervous or excited. Erudite and talented, he has already seen that this jade seal is a national jade seal.

Wang Jin made an annoyed state with a straight face, gritted his teeth and said: "After I arrived in Bianliang City, I saw the squalor under the prosperity, and I originally ordered the Shiqian brothers to enter the palace, leaving a scarecrow with a severed head to warn King Zhao Duan. Traitors. Let them be careful of their dogheads......"

Wang Jin was concise and concise, mentioning one or two things that he said to the Shi Qian brothers that day. At last

With a face full of hatred, iron is not steel, and he said viciously: "When did Nai move this guy's hands and feet are not clean, and he said some crooked reasons that thieves are not empty." That night, he not only took a lot of valuable things, but also brought back the jade seal, which caused Bianliang City to conduct a house-to-house inventory, almost digging three feet into the ground. I almost exposed the intelligence organization, and I plan to punish him severely......"

Zhu Wu has followed Wang Jin for the longest time, and knows that this angry man has deep meaning. smiled and hurriedly persuaded: "Hey, brother is angry, angry." The Shiqian brothers have merit. Performing tasks and getting back money is just right for ill-gotten gains, how to deal with it coldly? You can't let your brother chill. ”

Xu Guanzhong smiled with his eyebrows, and hurriedly persuaded: "Yes, yes, this jade seal was inadvertently brought by Brother Shiqian, but it was the will of heaven." ”

Ma Ling, Qiao Daoqing, and Wen Huanzhang echoed one after another.

Wang Jin didn't plan to dispose of Shi Qian, after all, he also gave the order to take valuable items in his hand. The reason why you are angry is what a monarch should do. Seeing that several smart people were exculpatible, he borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and smiled: "That's it, it's because I didn't think about it too much, and Brother Shiqian has merit." ”

Putting this topic aside, Wang Jin took the crystal jade seal and played with it. Its square circle is four inches, on the new hand over five dragons, the front is engraved with "ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang" eight ancient seal characters. One corner is missing, set with gold.

The jade seal of the country, that's right, this is the jade seal of the country in the record, and it is the seal of the emperor. As a token of "imperial power, orthodoxy and legitimacy".

It is rumored that Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, was ordered by the first emperor to use Lantian jade and engraved with He's bi, which is the evidence of the orthodox emperors of China.

After Qin, calendar

The emperors of the dynasty all took this seal as a symbol, and they were like treasures, and the important weapons of the country were also. If you get it, it symbolizes that it is "ordered by the sky", and if you lose it, it shows that its "qi has been exhausted". Those who ascend to the throne without this seal are ridiculed as "white emperors", and they appear to be despised by the world because of their lack of confidence.

But it's such a treasure, I don't know how many people have grabbed their heads and bled out. It was taken by Shi Qian, who was illiterate, and fell into the hands of the cottage.

Those who get the jade seal are destined to return!

Wang Jin took a deep breath, calmed down, looked at several military advisors, and reminded him of the old things: "I know that this is the jade seal of the country, but is it true or false?" ”

Xu Guanzhong saw that everyone was not silent, so he took the initiative to tell a story: "This jade seal is mainly because it is very miraculous, it is rumored that in the twenty-eighth year of the reign of King Qin (219 BC), Qin Shi Huang took a dragon boat to cross Dongting Lake, the wind and waves rose suddenly, the dragon boat will capsize, Qin Shi Huang hurriedly threw the jade seal of the country into the lake, praying to the gods to calm the waves, but the wind and waves were calm, and there was no flood for several years. The jade seal was thus lost. Eight years later, Huayin Pingshu Dao was presented with the national seal. The jade seal of the country was restored to Qin. ”

"Yes, I know." Everyone present knew more or less and nodded their heads.

Xu Guanzhong coughed a few times and continued: The jade seal of the country began with Qin Shi Huang, in the winter of the first year of Qin Ziying (207 BC), Pei Gong Liu Bangjun was on the throne, and Ziying knelt and held the jade seal and dedicated it to Xianyang Daozuo, and Qin died. and Gaozu Zhuxiang, that is, the Son of Heaven, because of the imperial obedience to its seal, passed down from generation to generation.

After being captured by Wang Mang, the jade seal was inlaid with gold for the missing corner, the reckless soldiers were defeated and killed, and the Janissary Captain Gong Bin had to pass on the national seal, tended to Wan, and dedicated to the first emperor Liu Xuan. The Red Eyebrow Army killed Liu Xuan and established Liu

Basin. The national seal changed hands to Liu Penzi. After Liu Penzi was defeated in Yiyang, the seal of the country was handed over to Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, eunuchs were autocratic. In the sixth year of Emperor Ling's reign, He entered the palace to kill the eunuchs, Duan Jue fled with the emperor, and the jade seal disappeared, and was later ...... by Sun Jian"

Xu Junshi is a smart man and a knowledgeable person, and he does not dare to make decisions easily. So let's talk about the bloody storm caused by the jade seal of the country. Finally, from the end of the Tang Dynasty, the jade seal disappeared inexplicably, and the chaotic Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms were also mentioned. When there is a change of regime, there is no jade seal, so it will be made by itself and propagated orthodoxy to the outside world. It is also the origin of the "tabula rasa emperor".

"This is an ancient jade seal, whether it is from the quality or the carving, it is difficult to distinguish." Xu Junshi pointed to the jade seal on the table and said ambiguously.

"Master Xu, you haven't finished speaking." Zhu Wu shook the goose feather fan and checked the gaps: "A few decades ago, when Song Zhezong was in power, a farmer named Duan Yi found the seal of the country when he was plowing the field and sent it to the imperial court. According to the records of the previous dynasty, thirteen scholars believed that it was the seal of the first emperor. ”

"Yes, I've heard of it too, it's a sensation." Ma Ling, look at Daoqing agreed.

"That said, this jade seal is real." Wang Jin smiled. Of course, he knew that this was fake, and the history of the Song Dynasty found that the name of the jade seal was unclear, the characters were ominous, the description of the appearance of the jade seal was completely absent, and there were few records.

Although it has been verified by many parties, there is no doubt that it is true, but people of insight in the government and the opposition are suspicious of its falsity. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Huizong was good and elegant, and engraved the seal in ten directions, and the people of the time had the ridicule of painting snakes and adding feet, in fact, Huizong did not even use the jade seal to promulgate the holy decree, which seemed to dilute the status of the national seal.

Zhu Wu didn't know the king

Thinking about it, he hurriedly picked up the conversation: "Of course it's true, providence!" The elder brother is a man of destiny, and he specially descended the jade seal of the country. The Great Song Dynasty has exhausted its qi, and his brother is in charge of the jade seal, and the will of heaven cannot be done. ”

Ma Ling and Qiao Daoqing were even more enthusiastic, and they all got up and bowed down: "The military advisor is right, my brother is sympathetic to the people, he is born with benevolence, and he has the name of benevolence. Most of them are loved by the people, and they are destined to return, and they get the jade seal, raise their arms and shout, condense the will of the people, and win the Central Plains. ”

Wang Jin saw that the three elders were a little radical, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop it: "Hey, hey, three military advisors, don't be impatient, take big steps, and pull eggs." I have just had a foundation in Liangshan, and I will talk about it when the overseas foundation is successful. ”

Xu Guanzhong immediately agreed: "Yes, my brother is right, the current situation is chaotic, and the two northern countries are fighting endlessly. Western Xia, Dali is eyeing the tiger, the Song Dynasty has Hedong Tianhu, Jiangnan La, faintly there is a group of heroes competing for hegemony, now the time is not ripe, my Liangshan strength is not enough. ”

Wen Huanzhang also felt that he couldn't be in a hurry, and followed Xu Junshi to speak: "The jade seal of the country is a good thing but it is very tricky, it is best not to show the jade seal, it can't become the target of public criticism." The Song Dynasty will always pay attention. It's best not to show up for a short time, otherwise you'll only get into trouble. ”

"That's true, if you become a bird, you will definitely die! Of course, this heirloom jade seal is equivalent to a double-edged sword, and it is not good to hurt others and oneself. Wang Jin looked at several military advisors left and right, and said with a serious face.

As a descendant, he knows the importance of this jade seal better than anyone else, and he also knows better that this thing depends on good and evil, and it is easy to attract others to covet it. On the bright side, secretly there are cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods

Gathered, exceeded estimates, and lost all the games. But his eyes kept rolling, and a plan gradually took shape.
