Chapter 21 - Imperial Jade Seal 1
"Lord Li Gang Li is also in the side chamber." Wang De said.
"Li Gang?" Zhao Chen was startled, he did not understand why Li Gang was there as well.
"Your Highness, it's like this …" Immediately, Wang De began to explain.
It turned out that when Wang De entered the palace, he saw Zhang Bangchang, Li Bangyan and the others escorting Song Chin Zong out. At that time, it was snowing heavily, and a forty year old official rushed over. When Wang De saw the middle aged man's figure, he was startled and immediately pulled him down. The middle aged man was Li Gang! At that time, Li Gang had also entered the Imperial Palace not long ago. Originally, he wanted to pay respects to the Song Chin Zong and be with the Emperor at the last moment, but when he saw that the Emperor and Empress were kidnapped by scoundrels, Li Gang was filled with rage and wanted to rescue the Emperor and Queen. However, there were dozens of guards there. How could he rescue them? Moreover, the army of a hundred thousand was truly right outside the palace. Even if Li Gang could save the emperor for a while, he would not be able to escape his fate of being captured in the end!
At that time, Wang De had knocked Li Gang out, and dragged him into the side palace before returning to look for Zhao Chen.
"Li Gang is a loyal subject!" Zhao Chen said.
"That's right, among all the ministers in the court, there are only a few loyal officials like Lord Li!" Wang De said.
"General Wang risking his life to save me is naturally also loyal!" Zhao Chen said.
"This lowly general does not dare to accept it!" Wang De anxiously said.
Zhao Chen laughed, then the two quickened their pace! They walked for a quarter-hour. Just as the sky began to brighten, the two of them finally arrived at the entrance of the side chamber!
Just as they arrived, they saw a person walking out! This person looked to be around forty years old, but had a head full of white hair. His body was slightly hunched, who else could he be other than Li Gang! So it turned out that Li Gang had been knocked out by Wang De and was dragged here. When he finally woke up, he thought about how the emperor was doing and felt that his heart was burning with anxiety. He was prepared to rescue the emperor once again, but he coincidentally met the two of them!
"Lord Li, where are you going?" Wang De stretched out his hand to stop Li Gang, and said.
"General Wang, don't stop me, I still have to go save His Majesty!" Li Gang said.
"Take a look at who this is?" Wang De said.
Li Gang left in a hurry, he had only noticed Wang De, and at that moment, he saw a young man with a relatively small figure beside Wang De! After clearly seeing the youth's appearance, Li Gang was immediately stunned!
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Li Gang could not help but exclaim! He was a renowned minister in the world. He often went into and out of the palace, so naturally, he had seen the crown prince! Especially before Li Gang was demoted, he was the Prime Minister. At that time, Zhao Chen was still not in this era, and at that time, Li Gang was already more familiar with the crown prince! At this moment, he naturally recognized Zhao Chen's identity at a glance!
"Let's go in first!" Zhao Chen nodded and said.
entered the side hall first, and Wang De followed. Li Gang hesitated for a moment, before also entering the side hall.
"This humble subject, Li Gang, greets Your Highness the Crown Prince. Li Gang finally had time to kneel on the ground and ask.
"Lord Li, hurry and rise!" Are you still going to save royal father and mother now? " Zhao Chen said.
"This …" Li Gang hesitated.
"Father, Mother, you have fallen into the hands of the Jin Army! There are a hundred thousand Jin Army s and their leaders, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongwang and others are all famous experts in the world. How can you save royal father and mother by yourself? Even if the three of us were to join hands, it would be impossible to save royal father and mother! To be honest, if I wasn't clever, I would have already fallen into the hands of the Jin Army! " Zhao Chen sighed softly and said.
"Did they go to arrest the crown prince as well?" Li Gang said in shock.
"The Jin Army is encircling the Kaifeng City, they will definitely not let a member of the Imperial Family off! I am the crown prince, my status and position are extremely important, how can they let me go? " Zhao Chen said.
Immediately, Zhao Chen told his about Xiao San'er's matter once again!
"Zhang Bangchang, Li Bangyan, these two scoundrels! However, for the crown prince to think of a substitute, it seems that the heavens will not kill our Song Dynasty! His Majesty and Empress were captured, and all the members of the royal families of the Supreme Emperor and Kaifeng City were captured, but His Highness the crown prince was still safe and sound. Li Gang said! Thinking of how Zhang Bangchang, Li Bangyan and the others were the villains, he gritted his teeth and gritted his teeth! Upon thinking about how the Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty had yet to be captured, he was overjoyed. After a moment, he couldn't help but cry.
"Now is not the time to talk, we have to leave immediately!" That Little San is not reliable! " Zhao Chen said.
"Hold on!" Li Gang suddenly said.
"Sir Li, is there anything else?" Zhao Chen frowned.
"The reason why I said I wanted to save His Majesty was so that I could be with him! I originally thought that the Song Dynasty was hopeless, at most, I would just die here, just like a martyr! However, the Crown Prince is still alive. I would never dare to have thoughts of sacrificing my country! I want to support the crown prince in taking back the mountains and rivers, Song Dynasty Zhong Xing! "In that case, one thing is essential!" Li Gang said.
"I wonder what it is?" Zhao Chen asked curiously.
"Imperial Jade Seal!" Li Gang said.
"Imperial Jade Seal?" Zhao Chen was startled!
As a third year student, he knew about this item! This "Imperial Jade Seal" was extremely famous in history. Legend has it that after Qin Shihuang unified the world and obtained the world's most beautiful jade, He Shi Chao, he ordered someone to carve He Shi into an jade seal and ordered Reese to carve eight words on the jade seal.
From the Qin Dynasty on, Imperial Jade Seal was the symbol of "orthodoxy". All the previous generations of kings had to obtain Imperial Jade Seal as a form of "righteousness", otherwise, the legitimacy of the emperor would be questioned. There would be people who would not accept this "white emperor" without Imperial Jade Seal, and the world would be in turmoil!
"Yes, the Imperial Jade Seal is exceptionally important! In order for His Highness to take back the mountains and rivers, the only way is to have Imperial Jade Seal s! " Li Gang said.
"What time is it now? If Nvzhen finds out that the crown prince is lying, he will definitely search for us with all his might. At that time, we won't be able to escape death! Therefore, we have to leave this place as soon as possible! As for the Imperial Jade Seal, we can think of ways to get them back in the future! " Zhao Chen said.
If it was an ordinary moment, Zhao Chen would definitely be interested in this Imperial Jade Seal, but right now, a huge crisis was about to befall upon him, and his life was at risk. At such a moment, he had no mood to look for this so-called Imperial Jade Seal!
"Your Highness, you absolutely cannot abandon the Imperial Jade Seal!" Li Gang said anxiously.
"We should keep them for ourselves. Let's look for them in the future!" Zhao Chen said impatiently.
"Your Highness, if this Imperial Jade Seal were to fall into the hands of the Nvzhen, if we were to think of obtaining it again, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens!" Li Gang said.
"Maybe the Imperial Jade Seal has already fallen into the hands of the Nvzhen!" Zhao Chen disapproved.
"Your Highness, this general also thinks that we cannot give up on the Imperial Jade Seal!" Just then, Wang De suddenly said.
"Oh?" Zhao Chen was startled, he did not expect Wang De to say something like that!
He was from the modern world, so he naturally did not know how important Imperial Jade Seal were in the ancient times! Imperial Jade Seal was the symbol of the Great Yue State. Even if the Emperor was captured and the seal was broken, as long as the Imperial Jade Seal was still in the hands of the disciples of the Zhao Family of Song Dynasty, it meant that the power of the Song Dynasty was still there! If the Imperial Jade Seal were to fall into the hands of the Jin Army, it would mean that the Song Dynasty was completely finished. Even if there was a member of the royal family who could live and rebuild the emperor's empire, it would mean that the original Song Dynasty was not the, but the "Southern Song" that was slightly more settled in one direction! At that time, the only thing that could represent the orthodoxy in the world was "Gold" and not "Song"! Therefore, to Li Gang and Wang De, they had to obtain the Imperial Jade Seal!
"Your Highness, please wait here!" This general will go find the Imperial Jade Seal! "
Wang De did not wait for Zhao Chen to reply, he had actually turned and left the side hall!
Wang De's figure slowly disappeared as he stood in the side hall with a wry smile on his face! Now that Wang De was not around, with his own martial arts cultivation, it would be difficult for him to escape in the chaos. Thus, he decided to wait for Wang De, the Innate Ranker, to come back first.
However, his heart was anxious and he couldn't help but feel uneasy!
