Chapter 0394: Passing on the Jade Seal of the Nation

At this moment, Yuan Shu was raging in the Wancheng camp: "Leading two state governors at the same time? How can that be? This is a chaotic fate

At noon, the sun was hanging in the sky, scorching white light that made the ground yellow. However, there were inexplicably thick black clouds rushing from the southeast, and the air was dull and oppressive, indicating a sign of rain.

As the sky darkened, there were lights in the main tent. Upon hearing this, the staff opened their mouths wide, and a solemn old minister whispered from behind, "Master, be careful with your words, but this is a will, stamped with a jade seal

What a testament? With the widow's seal on her body, she can easily take out ten or eight copies. Do you believe it? "Yuan Shu gave the man a fierce glance.

This person remained silent and dared not speak again, knowing the proud character of the lord, which can be considered as giving face to the old minister.

Big brother is right. As long as the Empress Dowager's legal system is in place, if she can appoint Liu Bei as the governor of two provinces today, she can be crowned king tomorrow... "Yuan Yin stepped out and said," The imperial edict can be issued the day after tomorrow

Yuan Shu was very satisfied with this agreement, and only when he heard the "Imperial Edict for the Transmission of the Country" did his gaze flicker: "If she wants to issue it, she also needs to have the Imperial Seal for the Transmission of the Country, hey

Yuan Yin was a bit puzzled, but didn't dwell on this: "What good strategy does Big Brother have

Yuan Shu narrowed his eyes and said, "Tell me a rumor that the Empress Dowager and Dong Zhuo have an affair, secretly harming the Young Emperor and the Xian Emperor. Now that Xu Changlai is running away, he is having an affair with Liu Bei. This chaotic fate is a despicable woman forging an imperial decree

This... "Everyone was sweating profusely, rumors were brainless and there was nothing wrong with them. Splashing dirty water is always a strange thing, but this is aimed at the Empress Dowager and the Emperor

My lord, perhaps from a high background, is simply audacious and shows no respect for imperial power!

What are you afraid of? My lowly commoner brother dared to clear the palace ban, Dong Hei even killed the two emperors, Cao Cao dared to secretly send bandits to kill the governor Liu Dai and lead the Yanzhou governor. I, Yuan Shu, did such a small rumor. What are you afraid of

The public's slander has no real benefit other than angering the empress dowager, but at this point, they can only bow down and obey orders: 'I will obey your orders!'

Damn it, damn it... "Yuan Shu cursed loudly, but showed a hint of fear.

Once the Empress Dowager lands on the Phoenix again, her identity and influence will be there. Once the Jingzhou Governor is sealed off, it will immediately lead to instability in the newly captured counties of Nanyang Commandery - without a stable foundation, it will be difficult to expand the surrounding areas, and the plan to completely capture all the counties of Jingbei will also fail immediately!

In contrast, there was no mention of Liu Bei in the curse.

In Yuan Shu's eyes, even his illegitimate brothers were "sons of maidservants", Cao Cao was "the queen of eunuchs", and Sun Jian was a "barbarian tycoon" who came to hug his thigh. Which eye did Yuan Shu use to look at Liu Bei, the "man in grass shoes"?

General Ji Ling still fulfilled his duty: "However, Liu Bei is a resolute person, and Yingchuan Commandery is adjacent to our Nanyang Commandery. It's hard to guarantee that he won't turn against me immediately. Your Highness needs to be prepared

That's natural, hit it, what are you afraid of! "Yuan Shu chuckled, sounding confident.

But at this point, Yuan Shu's arrogance had not yet reached the level of proclaiming himself emperor, and now he was not just a straw bag. He frowned and asked, "We can gather 50000 troops. Last month's intelligence showed that the enemy's regular army was only 30000 to 50000, and even if the army was temporarily expanded, it would not exceed 50000 at most. We are facing two enemies, Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao. I don't believe how many troops he can draw out... By the way, what is the situation under the tent

Ji Ling gave a glance and the general Lei Bo immediately stepped forward to report: "Among the generals who have made achievements in the past two years, Zhang Liao was in the Northern Army of Luoyang. A month ago, during the turmoil in Luoyang, he led the infantry and archery camps with Liu Biao and left the city without knowing his whereabouts. Guan Yu stationed troops in Hulao, and Huang Zhong was fighting against Xiahou Yuan. Both generals were the main force in the battle against Cao Cao in the early spring. Recently, it was heard that a young general named Zhao Yun led the Empress Dowager

Don't tell me about the unnamed young master, "Yuan Shu interrupted, completely too lazy to remember. He asked," I've seen it at the banquet of Dong Zhuo's mansion. When Liu Bei and Dong Zhuo had a falling out, besides Guan Yu, there was also a black faced person who helped resist Lu Bu. What was this black faced person called

Lei Bohan suddenly said, "Yes, General Zhang Fei has been frequently harassing the Henan Yin with his cavalry. I heard that he and Guan Yu intercepted the remaining soldiers left by Xu Rong this time. Zhang Fei also attacked and conquered more than ten cities of the Henan Yin on his way back. These days, he has been patrolling in eastern Henan with Empress Dowager Luan. Liu Bei seems ready to personally attack Xuzhou and confront Cao Cao

Did it turn out that there was only one general left by his side? Yuan Shu didn't care and said, "He has General Zhang Fei, and I have General Ji Ling! Take this opportunity to send troops to attack various places in northern Jing, integrate our military strength, and then launch a surprise attack on Xuchang in the emptiness of western Henan

My lord is wise

My lord, the blockade of Nanyang Commandery has been tight for the past half month, and there has been no news of Zhang Zi being attacked and killed by General Huang Gai of the Sun family. Liu Bei must not be aware of this incident. Across the Ying River is Yingchuan Commandery, and Xuchang is only 300 miles away. Between his elbow and armpit, he must have captured the Empress Dowager and the civil and military officials of Yuzhou in one fell swoop

Hehe... "Yuan Shu smiled solemnly and waved his hand," Everyone go down and prepare

Seeing that the courtiers and generals had stepped down, Yuan Shu withdrew his attendants and briefly checked that there was indeed no one left. Only then did he take out a wooden box.

Upon opening it, a jade seal with a four inch square and five dragons on top of it was securely placed, but a corner was missing and replaced with gold.

At this moment, Yuan Shu's heart trembled. He took a step forward and reached out to grab the jade seal. With an indescribable aura, he entered through the palm of his hand and opened it to see that it was "entrusted to heaven, with eternal longevity"!

This is the Imperial Seal of the State. In the nineteenth year of the reign of King Zheng of Qin (228 BC), Qin defeated Zhao and obtained the He Shi Bi, unifying the world. Ying Zheng was called the First Emperor and ordered Li Si to write the eight characters "entrusted to heaven, with eternal prosperity" in seal script. Xianyang jade worker Wang Sunshou finely ground the He Shi Bi and carved it into a seal.

Subsequently, emperors of all dynasties regarded obtaining this seal as a symbol, presenting it as a precious treasure and a national treasure. Obtaining it symbolized "being entrusted to heaven", while losing it indicated "having exhausted one's energy".

At this moment, not only that, but also the spiritual energy was brewing and the clear light was diffuse, which made Yuan Shu intoxicated. When he first obtained this jade seal two years ago, he had not yet seen this dazzling vision. In these two years, the vision has become more and more apparent. Isn't he the true master of fate?

Compared to generals and heavy troops, the return of destiny is the true reliance for oneself. If you don't see Sun Jian, you must obediently submit to your royal aura!

Hahaha... Brother Shu, the army that subdues without fighting, the mighty emperor, you will ultimately be inferior to me! "Yuan Shu smiled proudly.

My illegitimate brother Yuan Shao also conspired to force the death of Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, in order to obtain Jizhou.

The son born to a maid is the son born to a maid, and shall not be of inferior rank. "The war drum outside the tent sounded, and the military's power was fierce, and Yuan Shu was even more proud.

Hmph, what kind of Chixiao Sword? It's just something that Liu Bang, the old rascal, came up with to deceive people. How can it compare to this national jade seal

Qin unified the six states, established officials and systems, and adopted the name Zulong. This jade seal carries the aura of Zulong and has extraordinary significance. It was personally passed down by the First Emperor, passed down through the Qin and Han dynasties, and passed down national treasures. It is truly the mandate of heaven

Having the Imperial Seal in hand is the true mandate of heaven. As long as we capture Xuchang and gather the seven seals, let this be the first step on the path of our Emperor Yuan Shu! "Yuan Shu held the Imperial Seal and smiled in the darkness

As I was pondering, I suddenly heard a general shouting loudly outside, "Report, Lord... the enemy general Zhang Fei led an army of 30000 to invade our Jingbei

Ah! "Yuan Shu was startled and said," This, this

With a tremble in his hand, the jade seal fell into the box. Yuan Shu looked at it with some heartache and saw that it was okay, so he paced back and forth. Ye Qing's quick reaction disrupted the original arrangement, and his heart sank. His first reaction was whether to immediately call Sun Jian for help.

But when only 30000 people from the other side came to attack, they gathered the "subordinate lords", which made Yuan Shu feel a bit uneasy.

I am the man destined by heaven to become the emperor! "The spiritual light of the imperial jade seal permeated the tent, exuding a majestic and far-reaching infectious power that quickly calmed Yuan Shu down.

Remembering that he was the true master of fate, with a large army of 50000 and the great general Ji Ling, he suddenly felt full of confidence. Remembering that Liu Bei dared to attack him first, Yuan Shu was even more angry. He was just a lowly person who made a living selling grass shoes, but dared to act so recklessly, which could be punished.

At this moment, intelligence kept coming. Yuan Shu took a few steps and personally took a seat, looking at the jade seal in the wooden box with a faint gaze.

He remembered what a sorcerer had said not long ago: "My lord has four generations and three dukes. I have seen my lord's face before, but there is a faint yellow aura, which is in line with Tu De

Now that I see it, a faint purple aura appears even more. This is the aura of a king, and Lord has the nobility of a king

Thinking of this, Yuan Shu stared at the jade seal in silence.

If Ye Qing were here, he would be ridiculed. The Yuan family has four generations and three dukes, and his disciples have traveled all over the world. He is also the legitimate son, which undoubtedly cultivates his arrogant personality.

But in practice, there is also Yuan Shao. Although Yuan Shao is only the elder brother of a concubine, he can always suppress Yuan Shu. Over time, he naturally has a sense of inferiority.

The combination of arrogance and inferiority, unable to rely on talent, made Yuan Shu even more superstitious about his background and destiny.

After watching for a while, Yuan Shu couldn't help but calm down and reluctantly looked at the jade seal before closing the box. However, the wooden box was also specially made, and once closed, it concealed the spiritual light.

Without seeing the spiritual light, Yuan Shu felt a sense of loss and emptiness in his heart. He forced himself to concentrate for a moment and then decisively ordered, "Xuan Jiling, come in

Yes

As soon as he came in, both with a bear waist and tiger back, bearing a majestic aura, bowed and said, "The last general is here. What do you want from me, Your Highness

Liu Bei dares to invade my territory. You lead your army to meet the enemy and set off immediately. As long as you kill General Zhang Fei, I will show my credit for you! "Yuan Shu said.

Ji Ling was about to respond, but suddenly felt a shiver in his heart. He turned his head and looked outside the tent, only to see that the sky was gradually darkening due to the approaching wind and rain. "This sky seems ominous

Hmm? "After a moment of hesitation, Yuan Shu furrowed his brows, feeling a little unhappy.

The final general obeyed! "Without any further thought, Ji Ling bowed and responded.

Then go and light up the troops! "Waved his hand and dropped the military symbol, Yuan Shu commanded.
