Chapter 80: The Imperial Jade Seal

Let's set the time forward for a few hours. Just as Song Shijiang met and talked with Lehe, Changsha Prefect Sun Jian led his three generals, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang, and less than 10,000 Jiangdong Army to enter the capital Luoyang.

Seeing that the remaining fire in the city was not over and was devastated, Sun Jian was also furious. With the idea of ​​being the first and the second, he drove troops to save the palace. Jian ordered the soldiers to extinguish the remaining fire in the palace and swept away the rubble in the palace. He led the three generals to establish the throne of the Han emperors of all dynasties, slaughtering cattle and sheep for sacrifice.

After the sacrifice, Sun Jian sat on the stone with an ancient ingot knife and rested, sighing sadly: "The thief ministers chaotic the country, the capital is empty, and it turns into scorched earth, and the people are suffering..." He felt tears falling like rain.

Suddenly, a soldier from Jiangdong hurriedly reported: "General, there are five colors of light flashing in a well in the garden behind the hall, somehow!"

Huang Gai shouted: "What happened?" He rushed over quickly.

Cheng Pu said: "Lord, there is a flash of light, or a strange treasure is abandoned in the palace and has not been robbed by Dong's thief. Why not go and take a look?"

So everyone went to the back garden, Huang Gai was lying down at the wellhead and watching. It was dark inside and there was nothing to see, only a faint light could be seen.

"Oh...what would it be? Why not go down and take a look." Huang Gai became curious.

He lit a torch, tied it with a rope, and went down the well to salvage it.

But he picked up a man in black. Seeing that the man in black was short, had a vulgar appearance, cold all over, and had no breath. Huang Gai said, "But he got a dead thief, I'm afraid he didn't steal it in the palace." After careful look, he saw that the man in black was carrying a yellow silk brocade package.

When I opened it, I saw a golden nanmu box inside, locked with a golden lock. I opened the lock and looked at it. A large jade seal was inlaid in the box: four inches in a square radius, with five dragons engraved on it; a corner next to it, and it was inlaid with gold; there was a seal script eight characters saying: "After being ordered by heaven, you will live forever."

Huang Gai grabbed the jade seal and shouted: "Lord, what is this?"

Cheng Pu was standing behind Sun Jian. When he saw the jade seal, he was shocked and looked around quickly, shouting: "All the soldiers listen to the truth, and no words will be listened to next, and no one who listens to it will be revealed."

The soldiers from Jiangdong in the garden all replied: "Abide by the order."

Sun Jian's heart moved and asked, "Does Demou, is it?..."

Cheng Pu's face was solemn, and he said, "Lord, that's right, this is the jade seal of the kingdom. This jade was the former Bian He was under Jingshan. He saw a phoenix lying on a stone and carried it on King Wen of Chu. After he was solved, he got jade. In the 26th year of Qin, he ordered a good craftsman to carve it into a seal, and Li Si sealed this eight characters on it. In the 28th year, the Emperor Shi Huang visited Dongting Lake. The wind and waves were shattered, and the boat was about to cover it. He rushed to the lake and threw the jade seal to the lake. In the 36th year, the Emperor Shi Huang visited Huayin, and someone held a seal to cover the road. The follower said, "Receive this and return to the ancestor dragon." After saying that, he did not see this seal, and the seal returned to Qin. Next year, the First Emperor collapsed. Later, Ziying presented the jade seal with Emperor Gaozu of Han. Later, Wang Mang usurped the rebellion, and Empress Dowager Xiaoyuan beat Wang Xun, Su Xian, and destroyed one corner of it and inlaid it with gold. Guangwu got this treasure in Yiyang and passed it to the throne to this day. It is reported that the ten regular attendants made a rebellion, robbed the young emperor of Beim and returned to the palace to lose this treasure. But for some reason, they appeared in the palace again, and appeared in the black-clad man in the well..."

Sun Jian looked at the imperial seal and thoughtfully.

Cheng Pu looked at Sun Jian, bowed suddenly, bowed and said, "Lord, this is the Lord of Heaven! An old saying goes: If you don't take it, you will suffer the consequences. Time is not waiting. Lord, if you give it to the Lord of Heaven, you must have a 95th share..."

Sun Jian's heart was beating like thunder, his mouth was dry, and he said with difficulty: "If God doesn't take it, he will be blamed? Is this what God means?..."

Cheng Pu came to Han Dang, Huang Gai nodded. The two of them understood each other and knelt down suddenly, shouting: "Lord, the destiny cannot be violated."

Sun Jian was ecstatic, grabbed the imperial seal tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "In this way, you should not stay here for a long time. You should return to Jiangdong as soon as possible and not seek major events."

The generals were also ecstatic and bowed and shouted, "Here!"

After the discussion was decided, Sun Jian abandoned the box, wrapped the jade seal again, put it in his arms, and led Jiangdong arms to leave the palace like a fire, leaving Luoyang City and heading towards Jiangdong. During this period, he met Song Shijiang, but he no longer expressed his words.

However, Song Shijiang was curious when he saw Sun Jian leaving in a hurry. He thought that these twenty princes in the town had their own different intentions, and it was normal for Sun Jian to have an unexpected move, so he didn't care. What's more, he was worried about the Liangshan brothers who had not returned from the palace as Yan Qing said, so he gave in and waited for Sun Jian's army to leave and then entered the palace again.

It was the first time that Song Shijiang saw the Luoyang Palace. This palace was too wide and could not be seen from the north to the south. Unfortunately, it had turned into scorched earth. Looking up, all the broken walls, black soil, rubble, and scorched wood.

Xun You's eyes were weeping, bowed down, and cried, "A few days after parting, Xun You came back. But the imperial city was not there, and Your Majesty was not there either."

Zhao Yun, Lin Chong, Officer Training Camp, Xu Ning Gate Scythe Battalion, and Hu Sanniang Medical Rescue Battalion, heard the sound and came out together.

Song Shijiang shouted: "The soldiers all go back and continue to put out the fire and clean up. Thank you for your hard work."

Lin Chong bowed and said, "Lord, two military advisors, how did you enter the palace?"

Song Shijiang said: "When you are searching and rescuing the palace, can you tell me that my brothers Shi Qian, Wang Dingliu, Bai Sheng, and Duan Jingzhu?"

Lin Chong, Xu Ning, Hu Sanniang and the soldiers all shook their heads and said, "I haven't seen it."

Hu Sanniang asked curiously: "How could they be in the palace?"

Yan Qing smiled bitterly and said, "Blame me, they did things with my spy camp, but they never returned."

Xun You's heart moved and asked, "Where are you waiting to put out the fire?"

Zhao Yunlin Chong bowed and replied: "Military advisor, when my guards entered the palace just now, they saw that there were already Jiangdong friendly troops in Nangong to put out the fire, and there was no one in Beigong, so they led their troops into Beigong."

"So, Nangong, my guards have never entered to check it?" Song Shijiang asked.

“That’s right.”

"Sun Jian has left, I will go to Nangong to check and rescue." Song Shijiang said.

"Affect the order."

The Liangshan Guards were ordered to enter Nangong and launched a carpet-style search and rescue.

Xun You pointed to the remains and introduced the various palaces to Song Shijiang. Before he knew it, he had arrived outside Deyang Hall.

Looking at the once magnificent hall and groping for the scorched earth broken beams with the remaining temperature, Xun You couldn't stop crying like rain again. "Han, is this the Han Dynasty the big man like this?" Xun You burst into tears.

Song Shijiang also had a deep face and felt sad. The Deyang Palace, the throne on this hall, means supreme power, but now the palace is destroyed and the chair is burned. Where is the majesty of the royal family? Only when the majesty is not there, can it attract people's hearts to the past, evil hearts are born, and the princes arise together.

Qin lost his deer and the world chased him!

Stop it, Emperor Han, the Han Dynasty has been exhausted. Troubled times come, heroes arose, and the princes are competing for the deer, and it is now today.

It’s a pity that the people in this troubled times.

Song Shijiang suddenly remembered Zhang Yanghao's song "The Ancients of Tongguan", and he unconsciously sang it in a low voice:

"The peaks are like gathering, the waves are like anger, and the mountains and rivers are inside and outside Tongguan Road. Looking at Luodu, I feel hesitant.

I am sad that the Qin and Han dynasties have been filled with land. When the palaces and palaces are prosperous, the people suffer; when the people die, the people suffer!"

Chen Gong, Zhao Yun, Lin Chong, Xu Ning, Hu Sanniang and others were also standing by their side.

Xun You even started to cry loudly and almost fainted.

Suddenly, a guard soldier shouted from behind: "General, general..."

Song Shijiang shook his head, cheered up and said, "Go and see." As soon as everyone walked into the back garden, a soldier had already staggered over and shouted, "Lord, I found General Shi Qian."

"Where?" Song Shijiang was overjoyed.

Yan Qing was even more anxious. He pushed Hua Rong away, who was helping him, and rushed forward and asked anxiously: "Where is it?"

The soldiers pointed behind in panic.

When the soldiers looked back, a man in black was lying on his back, motionless and silent.

"Brother Shi Qian!" Yan Qing staggered up, and everyone rushed up.

Shi Qian's eyes were closed, his whole body was cold, and he had no breath.

"brother!"

"Brother Shi Qian!"

Yan Qing hugged Shi Qian, shaking his cheeks desperately. Everyone was shaking together, massaged...

"Brother, Brother Song Jiang, another brother has left us..." Hu Sanniang covered her lips tightly with her hands, it was already raining.

Sudden!

"Oh... I'll freeze to death!" A slight moan came out of Shi Qian's mouth.

"Although still alive, still alive!" Everyone was in a state of excitement.

"Quick! Quick! Change his clothes and rub them hard!" Song Shijiang was also excited and hurriedly directed, "Hot soup, soup..."

"Sanniang, go and call the miracle doctor... Is the miracle doctor An in your camp?"

Hu Sanniang hurriedly went to search for her.

"Brother!..." Shi Qian Wennuan returned, slowly woke up, and opened his eyes.

"Just be alive..." Song Shijiang squatted beside Shi Qian, patting his arm with his hands.

Shi Qian smiled weakly: "Damn it, fortunately I can practice turtle breathing... This fire is too big, this water is too cold..."

"Brother Shi Qian, you have suffered. Raise... Raise... You will be lively again."

Seeing that Shi Qian was still very conscious, Song Shijiang asked, "Brother Shi Qian, do you know where the other brothers have gone?"

"They... they are all dead..." Shi Qian struggled, and Yan Qing hugged him tightly.

"We divided into two groups to search... Wang Dingliu and Duan Jingzhu brothers went to the imperial study... I and Bai Sheng brothers went to the bedroom... I found the jade seal... Brothers Bai Sheng were found. In order not to expose me, he was killed by the imperial guards... I hid in the well..." Shi Qian spoke intermittently, but probably could understand.

"Jade Seal! Where is the Jade Seal?..." Shi Qian groped all over his body.

Song Shijiang was moved. The jade seal was arranged by Yan Qing. He couldn't help but look at Yan Qing. Everyone looked at Yan Qing like Song Shijiang.

Yan Qing said anxiously: "Brothers, it's my plan. Don't ask me first, look for the jade seal!"

"Box, there is a treasure box..." Sun Li, who was in the officer training camp, shouted, holding a small golden nanmu box.

"Inside..." Shi Qian's pale face turned rosy and full of pride.

"There is nothing inside..." Sun Li spread out a wooden box.

"Ah! We got it for several lives..." Shi Qian screamed, lying in Yan Qing's arms and struggled constantly, and fell to the ground with the weak Yan Qing.

Zhao Yun, Lin Chong, Hua Rong and others hurriedly supported the two men.

Chen Gong thought for a moment and said, "General Shi Qian, do you know how you came up?"

"Didn't you save me?" Shi Qian struggled.

Chen Gong bowed to Song Shijiang, smiled coldly, and said, "Lord, why did Sun Jian hurried back to Jiangdong? It can be explained."

Everyone suddenly realized.
