At this critical moment, Tian Wu stretched out his hands and firmly caught the jade seal.
"Huh..." Liu Hao breathed a long sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked Tian Wu: "Master Tian Wu, thank you so much..."
Tian Wu shook his head: "Mr. Liu, this jade seal will emit a chilling coldness. If you don't pay attention, you may suffer losses... You must hold the jade seal well and don't drop it again."
Liu Hao licked his dry lips and carefully took the jade seal. This time he did not throw it away: "What a beautiful jade seal..." Liu Hao turned the jade seal over and found eight compiled characters engraved on the back.
, after carefully identifying it, a hint of joy suddenly appeared on his face: "I have been ordered by heaven to live forever... This is really the He family's jade... The Jade Seal of the Kingdom... Haha... I finally found the Jade Seal of the Kingdom... That's great.
"It's great...it's great..." Liu Hao was so excited at this moment that when he came, Liu Hao specifically looked up the writing method of the eight compiled characters of "I am ordered by heaven, and I will live forever", and he remembered it deeply.
In my mind, that's why I recognized the eight compiled characters on the jade seal at this moment, which are "accepted by heaven, and will live forever".
"This... I'm afraid... is not the real jade seal passed down from the country." Tian Wu said suddenly.
"What did you say?" Liu Hao's face suddenly darkened: "Master Tian Wu, you can't talk nonsense... This is clearly the national jade seal and clan jade, how can you say it's not..."
"Mr. Liu, why are you so sure that this is the Imperial Seal? What is your basis?" Tian Wu asked.
"First, based on my feeling, from the first time I saw this jade seal, I felt that it was the long-lost traditional jade seal and clan jade. Second, the bottom of this jade seal was engraved with the words 'Ordered by heaven, both longevity and longevity' eight
Anyone who is familiar with the history of the Qin Dynasty basically knows that after Qin Shihuang proclaimed himself emperor, he ordered the then Prime Minister Li Si to carve the words "Ordered by Heaven, Longevity and Longevity" on the bottom of the imperial seal.
The bottom of this jade seal has exactly these eight compiled characters, so this jade seal is definitely the national jade seal and clan jade!" Liu Hao gave his evidence.
Tian Wu smiled slightly: "It doesn't mean that it is engraved with the eight compiled characters 'Ordered by Heaven, and you will live forever', it must be the national jade seal... According to historical records, in the late Western Han Dynasty, a man named Wang Mang wanted to usurp the throne.
The emperor Liu Ying was only two years old at that time, and the Imperial Seal was controlled by the Queen Mother Xiaoyuan. Later, Wang Mang ordered Anyang Marquis Wang Shun to force the Queen Mother to hand over the Imperial Seal. The Queen Mother was filled with grief and anger and threw the Imperial Seal to the ground. At that time
A piece of the Jade Seal was thrown off. Later, Wang Mang used gold to repair it. From then on, the Jade Seal of the Kingdom was left with flaws... Mr. Liu, the jade seal in your hand is very complete, without any damage or flaws at all, so
…I think the jade seal in your hand is not the long-lost jade seal passed down from the country at all.”
"Don't talk nonsense..." Liu Hao's eyes widened.
Tian Wu shook his head: "I'm not talking nonsense. A piece of the national jade seal was indeed thrown off. The historical data is clearly recorded. It is recorded in many royal internal documents in later generations. This is absolutely true and I am not making it up.
of……"
"That's right, in the late Western Han Dynasty, a piece of the imperial seal was indeed broken by the then Queen Mother. Later, the usurper Wang Mang repaired it with gold." Ma Xiaoyao agreed.
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it..." Liu Hao shook his head vigorously: "This is the Jade Seal of the Kingdom... This is the only Jade Seal of the Kingdom in the world... What you said is all fake, fake... I don't believe it...
"
The corner of Tian Wu's mouth twitched: "Actually, I have another way to prove that this jade seal is fake..." At this point, Tian Wu paused and said, "Mr. Liu, what is the imperial seal made of?"
"Of course it's He's jade!" Liu Hao said it without thinking.
Tian Wu nodded: "Yes, the jade seal passed down to the country is indeed made of He's jade..." Tian Wu pointed at the jade seal in Liu Hao's hand: "But look at this jade seal, it is clearly made of Hetian jade..."
The jade is not made of Heshi jade at all, so... this jade seal is not a national jade seal at all."
"Hetian jade?" Liu Hao's face twitched fiercely: "You...you are talking nonsense!"
"Mr. Liu, I ask myself that I still have a certain ability to identify antiques. I can still tell whether a piece of jade seal is made of Hetian jade." Tian Wu smiled bitterly: "If Mr. Liu insists on not believing it, then I can't.
There is no way..."
Liu Hao was silent. He really didn't want to believe that the jade seal was fake, but what Tian Wu said... Tian Wu was a well-known master in the tomb robbing world. Since he was so sure that this jade seal was made of Hetian jade, basically there should be no
Wrong... Liu Hao felt disappointed. After so much effort, he only got a fake product in the end? How should he explain it to his boss?
"This jade seal is obviously made to imitate the traditional jade seal... Although it is not a real traditional jade seal, its collection value is still very high. In any case, it is also a jade seal made in the Han Dynasty, and it is also made of high-quality Hetian jade.
, if it is sold, it should be sold for a very high price." Tian Wu was also a little disappointed when he did not find the real jade seal passed down from the country.
Ma Xiaoyao's brows furrowed. After working for a long time, he found out that the imperial seal was fake! So much effort was wasted!
Liu Hao's face was gray and dejected, and his mood was extremely depressed. He took a deep breath and said, "Go and look inside the sarcophagus again. Maybe... the real jade seal of the country is hidden in the sarcophagus..."
Under Liu Hao's forced request, Tian Wu had no choice but to climb up the sarcophagus and rummage through the contents of the sarcophagus again. At this moment, Tian Wu's fingers suddenly touched a raised bead, and he fiddled with it subconsciously, "
"Crack, click, click..." The sarcophagus suddenly moved to one side. Tian Wu was startled and hurriedly jumped down from the sarcophagus.
"What's going on?" Ma Xiaoyao asked in surprise.
"I may... accidentally touched the mechanism..." Tian Wu's face was very ugly.
"Mechanism?" When Liu Hao heard these two words, he broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly took several steps back and came to the edge of the stone gate. As soon as he found something wrong, he would run away immediately.
Under everyone's vigilant gaze, the huge sarcophagus slowly moved several meters to the left, and then revealed a dark hole.
"Is there something else underneath the sarcophagus?" Tian Wu shined a searchlight on the dark entrance of the cave, and could vaguely see the stone steps inside the cave entrance.
"Go down and take a look. Maybe the Jade Seal of the Kingdom is down there!" Liu Hao only had the Jade Seal of the Kingdom in his heart now.
Tian Wu, Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang cautiously walked to the entrance of the cave and looked down. They could vaguely see a secret room below, and there were some vague things underneath, like bottles and cans.
"Want to go down and take a look?" Tian Wu turned back and looked at Ma Xiaoyao.
"This cave entrance is hidden under the sarcophagus. If you hadn't happened to touch the mechanism, we wouldn't have discovered this cave entrance..." Ma Xiaoyao said in a deep voice: "This cave entrance is hidden so deep. It seems that there are very important secrets underneath.
Woolen cloth……"
"You mean... you want to go down and have a look?" Tian Wu raised his eyebrows.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I really want to go down and have a look, but I'm worried that there are traps down there..."
"This is easy to handle, let's test it." Tian Wu took out a handful of stones from his backpack, shook his hands and threw them all into the entrance of the cave. "Dang, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong." There was a chaotic sound. After the sound disappeared, the cave entrance became quiet.
, no mechanism was touched, Tian Wu nodded secretly: "There should be no mechanism below..."
"Let's go down and have a look. I'm really curious about what secrets are hidden down there... If something goes wrong, let's get out quickly." Ma Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, but in the end he couldn't hold back his curiosity.
"Follow me and don't touch anything inside." After saying this, Tian Wu walked into the cave entrance.
Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang hurriedly followed, but Liu Hao hesitated for a moment, and finally stayed outside to wait for news. It was obvious that Liu Hao did not dare to go down...for fear of encountering some fatal mechanism.
…
Following the stone steps to the bottom of the cave, I used a searchlight to shine and found that the area of the secret room was quite large, estimated to be more than thirty square meters. The floor was paved with neat stone strips, and there were many Chinese characters carved on the surrounding walls.
, there is a stone table placed in the middle of the secret room. There are two jade boxes placed on the table. Apart from this, there is nothing else.
As soon as he came down, Tian Wu was attracted by the cursive characters on the surrounding walls.
"Tian Wu, what do these compiled characters mean?" Ma Xiaoyao glanced at the surrounding walls and found that he only knew a few characters and didn't recognize the rest.
"So that's it..." Tian Wu smiled bitterly: "These compiled characters are to introduce a secret... After Liu He succeeded to the throne, he accidentally met the wife of Grand Sima Huo Guang, oh, I should say he was a concubine.
It's more appropriate. After Liu He saw Huo Guang's concubine, he was immediately shocked. He had never seen such a beautiful and spiritual woman. With just one glance, Liu He fell in love with Huo Guang's concubine. Oh,
This concubine's name is Yun Ping, and she is Huo Guang's favorite concubine... Ever since he met Yun Ping, Liu He began to be obsessed with Yun Ping, dreaming of getting Yun Ping. Later, he finally waited for an opportunity... Huo Guang led him
His concubine Yun Ping went to the palace for a banquet. During the banquet, Liu He used some tricks to lure Huo Guang away, and then used some drugs to stun Yun Ping. After that... he put Yun Ping on the bed... After what happened,
Yunping was so ashamed and angry that she committed suicide. Huo Guang was so sad that he wanted to kill Liu He with his sword, but was stopped by the guards. Later, Huo Guang and other ministers deposed Liu He... Liu He was very alert and was deposed.
After taking the throne, he quickly fled Kyoto and went into hiding. Huo Guang mobilized a large number of people but could not find Liu He."
