The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Chapter 79
"As far as I know, the Imperial Seal is in the hands of Empress Xiao?"

Jia Xu's words attracted the attention of everyone in the royal tent.

Jia Xu just looked at Queen Xiao with a faint smile on her face.

Li Chengdao also looked at the little queen with a smile.

National Jade Seal!

The First Emperor unified the world and used He's jade to cast the national jade seal, which represented the foundation and orthodoxy of a country.

Since the First Emperor, successive monarchs have regarded the unification of the world as their ultimate goal, and the jade seal passed down to the country represents the orthodox status!
Whoever owns the jade seal of the country is orthodox. Even if you rebel, as long as you have the jade seal in your hand, it is not a rebellion. Even the nobles and the court cannot criticize you based on your status.

It was rumored that Empress Xiao took away the imperial seal after the fall of the Sui Dynasty, but it was unknown whether this was true or not. Jia Xu opened her mouth to remind Li Chengdao.

If the imperial seal is in the hands of Empress Xiao, it may be his biggest gain from attacking the Turkic Royal Court!
With the Imperial Seal, Li Shimin can no longer do anything to him above his status!It doesn't matter even if he is deprived of his position as king by any means!
Li Chengdao said: "Queen Xiao, the jade seal passed down to you is of no use to you anymore, so please give it to me."

"I……"

Queen Xiao suddenly panicked.

The imperial seal was indeed in her hand and was treasured by her, even Jieli Khan did not know about it.

She was also well aware of the preciousness of the national jade seal, and originally planned to bring it back to the Lanling Xiao family, but who knew that Jia Xu suddenly mentioned this.

Feeling Li Chengdao's oppressive eyes, Empress Xiao knew that she couldn't fool him, so she swallowed the lies she had prepared, and then sighed: "The jade seal of the country... is indeed in my hands, and I am willing to sacrifice it." To His Highness Taisun, I just hope that Your Highness can reunite me with my daughter and send her back to the Xiao family in Lanling."

Li Chengdao said with a smile on his face: "A few days ago, Tiangu sent someone to send a letter to Empress Xiao. It was written by your daughter. You must have received it."

Empress Xiao nodded.

She was in the Turks, and after her country was subjugated, she burst into tears with joy when she received her daughter's letter.

Li Chengdao added: "Empress Xiao's daughter is also in Youzhou. After Empress Xiao returns to Youzhou with Gu, Gu can reunite your mother and daughter."

Now the Lanling Xiao family supports Li Shimin because Queen Xiao's daughter Yang Wanyan was married by Li Shimin, that is, Concubine Yang.

After Li Chengdao captured the Prince of Qin's palace, he kidnapped all the concubines as hostages to restrain Li Shimin, and Concubine Yang was among them.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Grandson."

When Empress Xiao heard this, she was extremely surprised. Concubine Yang was her only daughter. The mother and daughter had not seen each other for many years. Now that she heard that her daughter was in Youzhou, one can imagine her excitement. The trace of resentment towards Li Chengdao also dissipated.

Then she turned to look at Princess Yicheng and said, "Yicheng, are you willing to go to Youzhou with me? This is our only chance to return to the Central Plains."

"If you don't want to go, His Highness the Grand Sun will also keep you safe."

Princess Yicheng is Yang Guang's cousin.

When Yang Guang was inspecting the border, he was trapped in Yanmen Pass by Qimin Khan, the father of Jieli Khan.

If not for the help of Princess Yicheng, Yang Guang might have narrowly escaped death.

Not only had she rescued Yang Guang, Princess Yicheng had also rescued Empress Xiao, and she had taken good care of her in the Turks, so she brought her here today to ask for Li Chengdao.

Hearing Queen Xiao's last words, Li Chengdao raised his eyelids, but didn't take it to heart. He originally planned to take all the Turkic nobles as hostages, and there was no harm in killing them if necessary.

But since I got the Imperial Seal from Queen Xiao today and took advantage of it, I acquiesced to her cautiousness.

"younger sister……"

Princess Yicheng's face was filled with hesitation. She was different from Empress Xiao. Empress Xiao still had the Lanling Xiao family to rely on, but she did not.After the fall of the Sui Dynasty, she had no one to rely on in the Central Plains, and she also gave birth to a child for Jieli Khan.

However, if she returns to the Central Plains with Empress Xiao, the latter will definitely take care of her.

"Your Highness, can I take my children with me?"

After a moment of hesitation, Princess Yicheng asked nervously.

Other Turkic nobles who fell into the hands of Li Chengdao were prisoners. Li Chengdao could treat them however he wanted. However, if she went to Youzhou with Queen Xiao, it would be as a guest. Li Chengdao would not kill them, but would treat them with courtesy.

"of course can."

Li Chengdao didn't care about such a trivial matter, so he immediately agreed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Grandson."

Princess Yicheng breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Li Chengdao Yingying, and then left.

"Your Highness, please follow me. I will hand over the imperial seal to Your Highness."

After Princess Yicheng left, Queen Xiao said to Li Chengdao, and then stepped forward to lead the way.

Li Chengdao, Jia Xu and others left the royal tent with Empress Xiao and went to her residence.

After entering the tent, Queen Xiao lifted up the sheepskin carpet in a corner of the tent, dug with a dagger for a long time, and then dug out a rosewood wooden box, and then presented it to Li Chengdao with both hands.

After Li Chengdao took the wooden box, he opened it directly.

In the wooden box, a square crystal jade seal with a real dragon carved on the top lay quietly on the golden silk.

Li Chengdao carefully picked up the jade seal and inspected it. He saw eight large seal characters at the bottom of the jade seal: "Ordered by Heaven, live forever and prosper." There was an overwhelming momentum.

The corner of the jade seal seems to be missing about a finger. Although it has been replaced by gold, it still looks like there are some flaws.

But this also proves that this is the real jade seal passed down from the country!

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped the government. Wang Shun asked the Queen Mother for the jade seal, but the Queen Mother threw it to the ground. The missing corner was later made up for with gold.

"My lord, congratulations to Your Highness for passing on the national jade seal!"

Jia Xu smiled slightly and knelt down to bow to Li Chengdao.

Everyone woke up from a dream and prostrated themselves one after another, shouting in unison: "Congratulations to Your Highness for passing on the national jade seal!"

Li Chengdao obtained the imperial seal, and from now on he was truly orthodox!He can even start a new dynasty!

Li Chengdao was also very excited. After putting the jade seal away, he held it up with one hand and said: "Get up."

Everyone got up.

Then Li Chengdao said to Empress Xiao: "Don't worry, Empress Xiao, Gu will definitely fulfill her promise. In a few days, you will return to Youzhou with the army so that you can meet your daughter."

Queen Xiao felt a lot more relieved. After all, she was still afraid that Li Chengdao would regret it if he got the jade seal.

After comforting Queen Xiao for a while, Li Chengdao left with everyone.
