Ding Chen was a little dazed.

After he and Jia Xu separated at the Tongtuo Street intersection, he walked home absent-mindedly.

The information Jia Xu revealed today really surprised Ding Chen. Even though he was cold-hearted, he was a little unacceptable after learning about the loss of the jade seal.

The Jade Seal of the Kingdom!

The imperial seal, which was given the supreme magical color since its appearance, was actually lost?

Since it was still a Heshi Bi, countless legends have been left behind. Mianchi Club; he was ordered by heaven to live forever; and the story of gold and jade inlaid. In the eyes of many people, the imperial seal is not just a seal.

It is a manifestation of orthodox status!

Thinking back to the beginning, Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty and forced his daughter to obtain the imperial seal.

What is it done? Isn’t it just that I hope to use such a jade seal to prove my orthodox status and calm the anger of the people in the world?

Ding Chen understood a little.

Why did the young emperor still live in Age after his abdication?

In fact, it was not about living, but about being imprisoned. Dong Zhuo helped the new emperor and needed the imperial seal to show his orthodoxy. However, the disappearance of the seal also made it difficult for Dong Zhuo to convince the public, so he had to temporarily leave King Hongnong in the palace.

He wanted King Hongnong to hand over the jade seal, or in other words, he hoped to find the imperial jade seal through King Hongnong...

That's right, it must be like this!

"Xiao Chen?"

Ding Chen suddenly raised his head and saw Sister and Cao Ang sitting on both sides, looking at him in surprise.

"What happened? How did you feel in a daze since you came back, looking very worried?"

It was lunch time, but Ding Chen seemed to have lost his soul.

Ajie frowned and showed a worried expression. She asked in a low voice: "You called you twice just now, but you didn't answer."

"Oh, nothing, I'm just thinking about the things in court."

Ding Chen came to his senses, quickly smiled, then looked at Cao Ang and asked, "Ang, what do you call me?"

"Uncle eats chicken legs."

Cao Ang took out a chicken leg from the food plate in front of him.

Ding Chen couldn't help laughing and refused, "Ang is so well-behaved, but my uncle is not hungry, so you should eat it."

Ang is growing, so he needs to eat more. Be strong and learn martial arts from his uncle, so that he can protect his mother in the future."

Cao Ang hesitated for a moment and put down the chicken legs.

Sister did not ask any more questions, but said softly: "Hurry up and go to the night, and you will go to the night."

She could see that Ding Chen had something to do.

But she didn't ask because she knew very well that if she could say it, Ding Chen would have said it long ago and wouldn't look like this.

After lunch, Ding Chen returned to the bedroom.

As soon as he walked into the room, he immediately closed the door and started to churn around the room.

From the bottom of a suitcase, Ding Chen took out the seven treasure knife and then lay on the couch, holding the short knife, and fell into deep thought.

He was a little dazed before, so he ignored many things.

But after calming down, Ding Chen felt something was wrong. What was wrong? After thinking about it, he finally thought of Jia Xu.

That’s right, it’s Jia Xu!

Ding Chen turned over and sat up, thinking about the scenes of meeting Jia Xu today.

It's a coincidence, isn't it?

But it was just because of a coincidence that after Ding Chen calmed down, he felt all kinds of abnormalities.

He and Jia Xu had no much interaction, but when Dong Zhuo arrested him, he met outside the gate of Cao's mansion.

After that, the two had no contact again.

But such a stranger suddenly came to him, and drank a bowl of mutton soup with him, and revealed a huge secret. The jade seal disappeared! This is not a trivial matter. Since the two people have no intersection, why did Jia Xu tell him? Ding Chen didn't think that his friendship with Jia Xu was enough to share this secret.

Then, Jia Xu told him that this news was nothing more than two situations.

The first situation is that Jia Xu has ulterior motives. But Ding Chen couldn't think of anything he had worth Jia Xu's plan.

If it is not the first case, it is the second case.

Someone asked Jia Xu to reveal this news to him... As for the purpose of revealing this news, Ding Chen could not guess it for a while.

It feels very complicated!

Who asked Jia Xu to reveal this news?

Ding Chen was extremely confused for a moment, and then lay on the couch again, playing with the Seven Treasure Knife in his hand, and his thoughts became particularly confused.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Just as Ding Chen tossed and turned at home, Jia Xu was standing with his hands down in the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In the center of the room, there is a bronze tripod with charcoal fires lit in the tripod, and it is also mixed with some spices from the specialties of the Western Regions.

The curling blue smoke floated out of the holes in the cauldron, emitting a refreshing and refreshing fragrance.

Dong Zhuo was wearing a white robe and leaned against the couch.

He opened his arms, revealing the thick body hair on his chest, which looked extremely extensive.

"In this way, then Ding Chen is not sure about the jade seal?"

“That’s right.”

Jia Xu replied: "I have been observing him all the time. I can be sure that he doesn't know anything.

I'm afraid I never told him about Cao Cao's assassination of the Prime Minister. So much so that after Cao Cao failed to assassinate, he fled from Luoyang, and Ding Chen and Cao Cao's wife and children were completely unprepared. During the conversation with Ding Chen, he could feel that Ding Chen was quite dissatisfied with Cao Cao and even a little resentful..."

"In this way, Ding Chen and Cao Cao have nothing to do with each other, right?"

"In the humble opinion, that's exactly what it is."

"What did King Hongnong talk to him last night?"

"It shouldn't be said anything... If he really said something, he was definitely not that kind of reaction."

Dong Zhuo gently tapped his forehead with his fist, revealing a look of fatigue.

He looked so tired that in an instant, Jia Xu even had an illusion that Dong Zhuo in front of him became much older.

The young man was elected as a filial and honest man, and then he entered the court to become an official.

Although he resigned from office and refused to be a member of his position, Jia Xu was indeed a real celebrity in Guzang and Wuwei.

The reason why he defected to Dong Zhuo was because he valued Dong Zhuo's heart. But now, his aura seemed to be gone... Dong Zhuo is no longer the overlord who dominated Xiliang, but he feels more like an ordinary person.

"So, the whereabouts of the jade seal are still unknown?"

“That’s right.”

"I don't believe that the jade seal will really disappear... Keep looking for it! I believe the clue must still be on King Hongnong."

"Humatizing, understand."

Jia Xu said goodbye and left, while Dong Zhuo leaned against the couch, closing his eyes to ponder.

In the past, he didn't care about the small jade seal, thinking that it was in power and the jade seal was irrelevant. But he never expected that the jade seal, which was originally a dead object, was given the supreme divine power after abolishing all schools of thought and respecting Confucianism. The eight words "Accepted from heaven, and live forever" on the jade seal became more and more in line with the imperial power and heavenly gifts.

If there is a jade seal in the country, it represents orthodox status.

Without the imperial seal, others will only say that you are a "whiteboard emperor" and will not admit it at all.

Dong Zhuo finally took control of Luoyang, but he saw that he was about to realize his ideal, but encountered such a thing...

What should I do? What should I do?

He forced King Hongnong to retreat and supported King Chenliu, which seemed to be in power.

But he also knew very well that he, who was born in Liangzhou, had not been recognized by the ministers in the court. Those people would hide like poisonous snakes, waiting for the time to come, and then give him a fatal blow. This was also the reason why Dong Zhuo refused to let King Hongnong leave the palace city for a long time, and hoped to find the missing jade seal through King Hongnong.

However, he was looking for the jade seal, and others were planning a conspiracy.

Empress Dowager He's death made Dong Zhuo particularly alert... and Cao Cao's assassination made him realize the seriousness of the situation.

After finding the jade seal, you must establish the name of King Chenliu as soon as possible.

Only by establishing the orthodox position of King Chenliu can he control and make those who have bad intentions honest.

But where is the jade seal hidden?

When Dong Zhuo thought of this problem, he had a headache...
