639 The Three Treasures

Xia Pingan looked at Xun Xun, who was glib-tongued but had a reserved look on his face as he promoted and flattered Jia Nanfeng. His eyes gradually turned cold, but he smiled. according to what Xun Qing said, the rumors that I heard about Jia Nanfeng were all lies? ”

Before Sima Yan chose his daughter-in-law, he had already heard some news about Jia Chong’s daughter, Jia Nanfeng. The so-called ” five no’s ” referred to Jia Nanfeng’s ” jealous personality, destined to have a young son, ugly, short, and dark skin “. In ancient times, women with these ” five no’s ” characteristics were ugly on the outside and vicious on the inside. They had no redeeming qualities and were a jinx. Not to mention marrying the Crown Prince, even marrying the common people would be despised.

It was such a woman, under the packaging of a group of people, who had deceived the Jin Martial Emperor, Sima Yan, and became his daughter-in-law. According to etiquette, Sima Yan only had the opportunity to see what Jia Nanfeng looked like after the crown prince’s marriage. However, at that time, it was too late to change the person. The Crown Prince, Sima Zhong, was stupid and weak, and was completely controlled by Jia Nanfeng. He didn’t even dare to complain in front of Sima Yan, which led to a series of tragedies.

Xun Yu’s expression did not change. He even bowed to Xia ping ‘an and said seriously, ” Your Majesty, those words about Jia Nanfeng’s’ five taboos ‘are definitely slander. Perhaps someone knew that Your Majesty wanted to choose the crown prince’s consort, so they deliberately spread false news. Your Majesty, please look into it!

The ” someone ” Xun Yu was referring to was general Wei Min. Compared to Jia Chong, Wei Min also had a daughter, who was one of the candidates for the crown prince’s wife that Sima Yan was interested in. Wei Min’s daughter had a good reputation. Compared to Jia Nanfeng, she had the ” five qualities “-a virtuous personality, suitable for a man, beautiful features, slender figure, and fair skin.

If Sima Yan had chosen Wei Yong’s daughter when he was choosing his daughter-in-law, there probably wouldn’t have been the rebellion of the Eight Princes and the five Barbarian Luan Hua.

Xun Yu was lying to the Emperor while making false accusations.

Xia ping ‘an didn’t say anything. She just stood up and walked down from behind the table. She walked past Xun Yu, who was still rooted to the ground, and headed out of the hall. I want to take a walk around the palace’s Arsenal today. Xun Yu, please accompany me.

Xun Yu was stunned. He didn’t know why the Emperor wanted to go to the Armory tonight. However, the Armory wasn’t a place that ordinary people could enter. It was an important place in the palace where treasures were placed. It was impossible for ordinary people to go in and take a look. The Emperor had invited him to go with him. Xun Yu felt that this was a kind of ” favor “. So after a moment of surprise, he followed Xia ping ‘an and walked towards the Armory.

A eunuch shouted at the top of his voice,””

When the eunuchs on duty outside heard that Xia ping ‘an wanted to go to the Armory, they quickly lit up their lanterns and the guards led the way. The group of people went to the Armory in a mighty manner.

“I wonder why Your Majesty is in the mood to set up an Arsenal tonight?” Xun Yu followed Xia ping ‘an carefully and even asked respectfully.

“It’s nothing. I just suddenly feel like going to see the previous dynasty’s three treasure cassock tonight.”

What Xia Pingan said was the truth. If he were to become Sima Yan, the things he wanted to see the most were actually the Three Treasures of the Han Dynasty stored in the Armory of Jin’s Palace. The Three Treasures were Liu Bang’s Python-killing sword, Wang Mang’s head, and Sage Kong’s skeleton.

These three treasures had been in the palace since Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty. They were the National treasures of the Han Dynasty and had been preserved since then. Whether it was Cao Wei of the past or the current Jin, they had all kept the Three Treasures well and dared not damage them. According to the trajectory of history, it was not until later when Sima Zhong succeeded the throne that the three national treasures were completely lost due to the chaos and the fire in the palace’s Arsenal.

……

Xia Pingan didn’t say a word along the way, and after more than ten minutes, they arrived at the Imperial Armory.

“His Majesty has arrived in Xuanji.”

A eunuch shouted at the top of his voice, and all the guards outside the Armory of the Royal Palace came out to welcome him.

“Welcome, Your Majesty!”

Xia Pingan gently waved his hand, and the door of the Armory, which was soaked in tung oil and wrapped with iron and copper nails, was slowly pushed open by two guards to welcome the arrival of the Emperor. The wall lamps in the Armory were also lit up one by one. The entire Armory was brightly lit, and under almost every wall lamp, there were guards standing solemnly.

Xia Pingan strode into the Arsenal.

The Arsenal was huge. It was a super large warehouse filled with treasures. This was the place where Jin gathered all the rare treasures in the world.

The official in charge of guarding the Arsenal carried the books and records in the Arsenal and followed Xia Pingan. As he walked, he introduced the situation in the Arsenal to Xia Pingan, not daring to be careless at all.

“Bring me to see Wang Mang’s head!” Xia Pingan ordered.

“Yes!”

……

After a short while, the military warehouse’s official brought Xia Pingan to a single room in the innermost part of the warehouse. In that room, there were three treasures left behind from the Han Dynasty.

When he saw the Three Treasures, Xia Pingan, who was an expert in history, was excited to see the legendary national treasures of China with his own eyes. At the same time, he was shocked. As an array master, he could sense a powerful array and a mysterious aura from the Three Treasures.

The Three Treasures were definitely not placed randomly in the room.

Wang Mang’s head was placed in the middle of a wooden box. Above Wang Mang’s head hung the Python-slaying sword used by Liu Bang, the founder of Han Dynasty. The sword was unsheathed, with the blade and the tip pointing down directly at Wang Mang’s head. From its position, it was an unusual arrangement. Below Wang Mang’s head, close to the ground, was a pair of wooden shoes full of vicissitudes-the shoes of Confucius.

Han Gaozu’s Python-slaying sword was in the sky, and his saint’s shoes were on the ground. Wang Mang’s head was suspended in the middle, caught between two sacred objects.

Xia ping ‘an was entranced by these three sacred objects. In a daze, Xia ping’ an’s mind suddenly felt an image-a sword as large as a Hill hanging high under the sky, supporting the infinite sky. The sword light was as dazzling as the rising sun, ready to strike at any time. On the ground, a pair of wooden shoes were placed on the ground, stepping on the ground and not moving. Between the two, a huge white python that was dozens of miles long was rolling, with no way to fly or escape. He was suppressed by the sword and the wooden shoes.

Behind the sword was the figure of an Emperor. However, the figure was already a little dim.

The one stepping on the wooden shoes was the figure of sage Confucius. His figure was still clear.

As Xia Pingan’s consciousness appeared, the huge sword hanging high in the sky began to roar. The light and flames were so bright that the White python was immediately stunned. The White python shivered and did not dare to make any rash moves.

……

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty,”

Xia ping ‘an’s mind was immersed in the strange realm brought by the Three Treasures. He didn’t know how much time had passed, but when he finally reacted, he heard a eunuch beside him calling him softly.

Xia Pingan looked at the faces of the people around him and saw that they were all looking at him with surprise.

“What’s wrong?” Xia Pingan asked.

ahem, ahem, please forgive me, Your Majesty. Your Majesty was so absorbed in san bao that you closed your eyes and didn’t say anything for almost half an hour. This old servant thought Your Majesty had fallen asleep, ” the eunuch explained in a low voice.

Half an hour, that was more than an hour. The surrounding people had seen Xia ping ‘an looking at the Three Treasures with such fascination that none of them dared to even breathe loudly. No one dared to disturb him.

Xia ping ‘an looked at the Three Treasures again. The more he looked at them, the more he felt that they were extremely mysterious and extraordinary. He directly asked the official of the military warehouse, ” have these three treasures always been placed like this? ”

Your Majesty, these three treasures have been placed in this room alone since the previous dynasty. The officials who have been guarding the Armory have followed the instructions of their predecessors and said that these three treasures can not be touched without permission!

“Why?”

The official who was guarding the military warehouse glanced at Xia Pingan and lowered his head. Your Majesty, please forgive me. I’m not guilty. That’s why I dare to speak!

“I’ll pardon you. Tell me, what’s the reason?”

it’s because of the admonishments left behind by the predecessors in the Arsenal. It’s said that Wang Mang was originally transformed from the White Snake killed by Gaozu of Han Dynasty. Mang is a Python. Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty to avenge his death by Gaozu. Wang Mang’s eldest son, Wang Yu, discovered Wang Mang’s abnormality and was prepared to pour Black dog’s blood on him. Unfortunately, Wang Yu was killed by Wang Mang after his defeat. After Wang Mang was executed, the Han Dynasty found an expert with the Python-killing sword and the Saint to set up this trap to shock Wang Mang.

After hearing this explanation, Xia ping ‘an looked at the Three Treasures that had been passed down since the Han Dynasty and was speechless for a long time.

At this moment, Xia ping ‘an heard the sound of armor clattering outside. Sima Ji had already returned to report. He walked to the outside of the house and bowed to report, ” reporting to Your Majesty, the matter Your Majesty ordered has been completed!

Xia ping ‘an let out a long breath. He looked at Xun Yu and smiled slightly. His gaze suddenly became sharp. He said softly, ” Xun Yu, between you and mang, who will bring more harm to the country? ”

As soon as Xia ping ‘an said this, the atmosphere in the Armory suddenly froze as if it was frozen. Everyone’s expression changed. The Imperial Guards couldn’t help but put their hands on the sabers at their waists. Sima Ji, who was standing outside the room, stared at Xun Yu with his arrow-like eyes.

Xun Yu’s expression changed drastically. His legs went soft and he almost knelt down. He swallowed and asked in a trembling voice, ” what does your Majesty Xuanji mean? ”

Xia Pingan sighed and looked at the Python-killing sword. He said, ” Wang Mang’s usurping of the Han Dynasty did not succeed in the end. The Han Dynasty still has Guangwu to revive, and Huaxia is still Huaxia. Even if Wang Mang succeeds, Huaxia is still Huaxia. It’s only the Han Dynasty that will be destroyed and the change of dynasties, not the world. However, if I’m deceived by you today, it won’t be just the great Jin that will be destroyed in the future. The world will be destroyed. Countless people will become white bones because of your selfishness today. There’s no one in Huaxia, Xun Yu, you’re ten times more dangerous than Wang Mang.”
