Are there words engraved on the stone? Yes, what is it? )
Bian He presented this treasure to Li, the king of Chu. However, after the identification of jade workers, Pu was judged as a stone. Li Guowang thought that Bian He had deceived the king and ordered Bian He to break his left foot and expel him from the capital.
When King Wu ascended the throne, Bian He presented the original jade, but the jade worker still thought it was a stone. Poor Bian He had his right foot cut off because of bullying the king.
After King Chu acceded to the throne, Bian He wept bitterly at the foot of Chushan for three days and nights, and his eyes overflowed with blood. King Wen was very surprised and sent someone to ask him, "Are there many people cut off?" Why are you the only one so sad? " Bian He sighed, "I'm not sad because it was cut off, but because the precious stones were treated as stones, and the loyal ministers were treated as the ministers who bullied the monarch. It's sad that right and wrong are reversed! " This time, King Wen directly ordered someone to cut it, and as a result, he got a flawless jade.
In order to reward Bian He's loyalty, Meiyu was named "He Shen Jade", which is the legendary He Shen Jade in later generations.
King Chu got this beautiful jade and cherished it very much. He couldn't bear to carve it, so he treasured it as a treasure. More than 400 years have passed, in order to commend the loyal ministers for their meritorious service, the color of "harmony" was specially presented to Zhaoyang. When Zhaoyang led the guests to visit Chishan, the jade jade was displayed for people to watch. Unexpectedly, after the crowd dispersed, Yuyu disappeared.
More than 50 years later, Zhao Renmiao first bought a piece of jade in the market with 500 gold. Unexpectedly, the jade worker identified this jade as the one that has been missing for many years. When King Huiwen of Zhao heard that He Shibi appeared in Zhao, he took it for himself.
Zhao Haoqi, the king of Qin, wrote to the prince of Zhao, saying that he was willing to exchange fifteen cities of Qin for jade. The King of Yue was awed by the power of Qin and sent Lin Xiangru to Qin. Resourceful Lin Xiangru lived up to his mission and designed to retrieve the jade and send it back to Zhao.
In 228 BC, the State of Qin destroyed Zhao, and Choi finally fell into the hands of the State of Qin. Unfortunately, He Shibi disappeared from the historical records. Legend has it that after Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, he made a national seal of Heshibi.
The ups and downs of the imperial seal
Let's just say whether the country's decree is jade. After Qin Shihuang unified China, he did let a jade worker carve a jade seal, which was called the "Imperial Seal". According to historical records, this seal is carved from white jade in Lantian, Shaanxi, and it is a tiger-killing button. It is said that the inscription on the jade seal of arowana phoenix bird was written by Prime Minister Lisi in the form of a big seal.
From the publication of the official seal, the legendary experience began. Legend has it that in 2 19 BC, when Qin Shihuang was touring Dongting Lake in the south, the wind and waves suddenly broke out and his ship was about to be destroyed. The first emperor threw the jade seal into the lake and sacrificed the waves to the gods so that he could cross the lake safely. Eight years later, when he went to Pingshu Road in Huayin, someone stood on the road with a jade seal and said to the attendants of the first emperor, "Please return this jade seal to Zulong (called by Qin Shihuang)." Then he disappeared. Pass the imperial edict and return it to Qin.
