Chapter 664 (1/2)
”Besides him, who else in the world can copy a jade seal that is hard to distinguish between the real and the fake.”
Chen Dachang looks calm. He seems to be saying that the weather is fine today and he is at sea again. He might as well have a lobster and abalone.
Rong Xin still looks shocked and frightened.
”But Duke Chen doesn't mean that there is a corner missing from the real imperial seal.”
”Who knows?”
Chen Dachang turned his eyes and said, ”the emperor of Zhongzong threw the jade seal, which made the jade seal missing. There are no more than five people in the world who know about it. Four of them have passed away, leaving only our family alive.
You have also heard the rumors in the palace that Zhongzong smashed the jade seal because of the court officials' persecution. Have you ever heard of Zhongzong being beaten by the emperor
Rongxin shook his head slowly, the jade seal was smashed, and there was no emperor in the story.
Chen Dachang continued: ”no one knows that a horn is missing from the real imperial seal. Perhaps some people doubted when the first emperor ascended the throne. However, those people either died or were executed by the late emperor.
Why did the first emperor kill the emperor when he just ascended the throne. People all say that the late emperor had a bad temper and was bloodthirsty. In fact, the emperor wanted to kill people. Anyone who dares to suspect the imperial seal will be executed by the order of the late emperor, regardless of the reason.
In the back, people are in danger. They just want to protect their lives. Where else do they care about the imperial seal. When the killing has come to an end, the fake is born in the air, and no one can tell the true from the false. No one could have imagined that the imperial jade seal in the palace was a forgery. ”
Speaking of this, Chen Dachang coughed violently.
Rong Xin regained his mind and quickly gave Chen Dachang medicine and bandaged the wound.
After the treatment of the wound, both of them were somewhat depressed.
Chen Dachang said wearily, ”in order to make this forgery, Mr. Gu personally went to the northwest and found abandoned veins in the mountains to study their properties. And follow the clues, found in the Imperial Palace and the real Chuanguo Yuxi original stone produced in the same vein of jade. It takes a year to produce the most exquisite products.
Do you know that when the jade seal was successfully made, it was placed in front of the emperor. If we didn't know that the real imperial seal was missing a horn, even the previous emperors could not tell whether the jade seal was genuine or not. But now, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not.
The real can become false, and the fake can also become true. The jade seal has been used by the former Emperor for more than 30 years, and his majesty has also used it for several years. Years, even if it's true.
As for the jade seal in the underground palace, which lacks a horn, it is no longer important. Even if someone had stolen the jade seal, it was useless. Because the royal family will not recognize it, the court will not recognize it, and the world will not. The person who wants to steal the imperial seal is obviously a fool, and his mind is not clear. ”
After hearing all this, Rongxin felt very heavy.
After a long silence, he asked, ”is that jade seal the last work of master Gu?”
Chen Dachang is very strange. How could Rongxin ask this question.
But he replied honestly, ”it's not his last work. According to reason, Gu knew so many secrets and made the jade seal himself. He should be executed afterwards.
However, the former Emperor left his life unconventionally. As a result, Gu entered the court and was bound by the court rules all his life. He said goodbye to the dandy life. As we can see, Mr. Gu has been holding back. Until his children grow up and become rich, he has done a crazy thing
”What's the matter?” Rongxin asked curiously.
Chen Dachang began to laugh, laughing happily.
With a nostalgic tone, he said: ”he imitated an imperial edict and passed the imperial edict. The content of the edict is to ask him to serve as an official for the aged. As a result, the imperial edict had not been finished yet, and the emperor knew it. He was not allowed to go home at will, but he was not allowed to go home at will
”That's why Mr. Gu hasn't been out of the house for many years?” Asked Rongxin.
Chen Dachang laughed, ”yes, that's why he doesn't go out of the mansion all the year round. He was a dandy, who was good at eating, drinking and playing. Old age, still do not change nature.
However, the emperor deliberately suppressed his nature and made him unhappy all his life. This is the price the late emperor allowed him to live. Until he died, he didn't get out of the house to have a good time. He was wronged. ”
Chen Dachang has some regrets. It's a pity that when Gu lived, he didn't have a good day.
”Was it the emperor who ordered him to be executed?” Rongxin asked in a hurry.
Chen Dachang shook his head gently, ”the former Emperor didn't need to order him to be executed. When the emperor was seriously ill, Gu knew that his time was running out. He had to die in front of the former Emperor, which was doomed from the beginning, for which he had been prepared. By the way, why not take advantage of your own death to take care of your life? ”
”Do you mean that Mr. Gu is willing to die?”
Chen Dachang nodded, ”yes, he is willing to die. In fact, he should have died three years ago. However, he survived and lived for more than 30 years, which is enough for him. ”Rong Xin sneered, ”I've lived more than 30 years, but I haven't lived a happy day.”
Chen Dachang laughed and said lightly: ”how many people in the world can live happily? Happy and alive, you can only choose one. For you, do you want to have a good day or live more than 30 years. ”
Rongxin couldn't answer.
This problem is too difficult.
Chen Dachang continued: ”Mr. Gu made a choice without hesitation. He chose to live, to live for himself, for his family, for future generations. ”
It took a little time for Rongxin to calm down.
”Mr. Gu was summoned by the late emperor before he died. Can you tell me what the emperor and Mr. Gu said? Madame, she wants to know
Chen Dachang laughed, ”it's just two old acquaintances chatting, chatting about family and children. At that time, I didn't mention a word about it. There has always been a tacit understanding between Mr. Gu and the former Emperor. ”
”Let the letter bow to a bow,” thank you for telling me the truth
Chen Dachang laughs, but unexpectedly affects the wound, the pain makes him take a cold breath.
After the wound didn't hurt so much, he gritted his teeth and said, ”you tell madam, we have said everything that should be said. There's no next time. ”
