Qin Shihuang's mysteries of pearls

Created from the jewel of Qin Shihuang, the pearl of the national tradition of Qin Shihuang is the treasure that the kings of the future would like to capture.

Ngoc billion is actually a seal, or chapter. Chinese cultural researchers believe that the chapter appeared very early. In An's time, people used sharp objects to carve patterns on stones.

The ultimate power symbol

The publication is seen as evidence of the power of the owner. Whether it is a trader or a mandarin, the person who carries the seal is the one who has real power in his hand. No longer press is no longer right.

Ngoc bill is the emperor's edition , symbolizing the ultimate power that only "celestial beings" have. Therefore, in the history of more than 2,000 years of Chinese feudal dynasties from Qin to Qing, the kings, whether they were stealing or giving up their throne, greatly appreciated the possession of jade.

In the Qin Dynasty, regardless of whether the seal or the seal is called "billion", there is no distinction between large and small and unity in form. Until Qin Shihuang unified the Central Highlands, he set the rules for the manufacture, title and use of the seal.

Qin Shi Huang stipulates that "billion" is a word reserved for emperor's seal and "billion" must be made of jade, so it is called "jade" . The officer 's seal is made of copper. The difference between caste levels is defined by the color of the strap.

In general, the officials of the Chinese feudal dynasties followed the rule of the Qin Dynasty. Since Han Dynasty, paper has been widely used, along with the development of painting and calligraphy, so the form of printing is very diverse.

The legs were cut despite offering the jewel

After Qin Shihuang annihilated the country, in order to prove his supreme supremacy, he ordered the public jade (who is knowledgeable about gemstones) to use a famous gem of the same time as "Hoa thi flanges " to create" jade ".

About Hòa thị Bích, the old story still circulates the story of "Bử Hòa Hòa three times offering pearls". In the Spring and Autumn period, there was a person named Bien Hoa in the country who picked up a pearl stone in the mountain. Knowing this is a rare treasure, Bien Hoa offered to Le Le Vuong. Department of Le Vuong invited Ngoc Cong to come over.

However, because this gem is not revealed, the jewel does not recognize it, considering that this is normal stone. The result of Bien Hoa was condemned when the army and his left leg were closed. Later, Vo Vu Vuong took the throne, and Bong Hoa continued to offer the jewel to the king, but once again, he was wrongly and was forced to keep his right leg.

After the throne of the King Van Vuong, Bien Hoa aged old sat hugging the precious stone at the foot of Kinh Son's cried cruelly. Department of Van Vuong found strange, immediately let the people come to learn, finally confirmed that the words Bien Hoa said were right. Since then, the gemstone is called "Hoa thi Bich" (the pearl of the Hoa family).

Change 15 buildings to get jewels

After the birth of the town, the legends surrounding it kept circulating. At the time of the Department of King Thanh Vuong, Chieu Duong destroyed Vietnam and set up a great merit with the Department of State, being awarded by Hoa Thi Bich. From here, the gem begins to "float".

It is said that, when Chieu Duong toured Xich Son, he opened a party on a high floor by the lagoon and took Hoa thi Bich to let everyone enjoy. Suddenly a big fish jumped from the bottom of the lagoon, dragging small fish of all kinds. Everyone found it strange and rushed to see it, then turned back, there was no jewel.

Of course Chieu Duong is the most depressed. He doubted the student Zhang Zhi had stolen so cruelly tortured. As a result, Zhang Nghia turned his back on the State Department, abandoned Wei, and eventually became Guan Qin, against the Department. The Jade family still can't find it and the Department has more and more enemies.

By the time of Trieu Hue Van Vuong, Hoa Thi Bich suddenly appeared at Handan, the capital of Zhao. Mau Hien urban authorities only use five hundred gold coins to buy back this treasure. After knowing the news, Trieu Hue Van Vuong had repeatedly implied that he wanted to bring back the jewel to him, but Mau Hien regretted the treasure so he did not give it. Zhao Wang angrily sent soldiers to Mau Hien's house to rob the jade.

The story comes to Qin Zhao Xiang Wang. Qin Wang wrote a letter to Zhao Wang, asking to use fifteen citadel in exchange for jade. At that time, Qin was strong and Zhao was weak, Zhao Hui Van Wang regretted the treasure, did not know how to handle it.

In the midst of urgency, the Xiangru-guru has made a "complete jewel of Zhao" . In front of Qin Wang, Lime Xiangya threatened to break the Flangen, thus preserving the jewel. Hòa thị Bích was stored in the court of Triệu Dynasty for a long time. In 228 BC, the Qin Dynasty attacked Zhao and plundered Hoa Thi Bich.

Mysterious jade pearl national tradition

Qin Shihuang engraved on the jade pearl made from Hoa thi Bich 8 words "pass the destiny, signed eternal life " (receive the heavenly fate, exist forever). The emperor dreamed of using this pearl as a national treasure, handed down to descendants who have great success in the future, called "pearl billion of the nation".

Perhaps he did not expect that the Qin Dynasty survived only two lives, to Qin Nhi.

After Liu Bang to Xianyang, Qin Zi Ying handed back the national jade band to Liu Bang. By the end of the Western Han Dynasty, when foreigner liked Vuong Mang to take the throne while Emperor Nhựt Anh Anh was only two years old, jade billion fell into the hands of the late Han Hieu Nguyen.

According to Han letter - Nguyen The Story, when Vuong Mang gave his brother Vuong Thuan to the queen Han Hieu Nguyen asked for pearls, she was too angry and threw the pearl on the ground, causing the pearl to be broken in one corner. Later, Vuong Mang allowed the gold user to reclaim the tank, but the spot still existed.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, jade billion was lost. Han Lijiang when running away hid the pearl in the palace, but when he returned, he could not see it anymore. Not long after, when the beast of Ton Kien defeated Thai Dong, Ngoc billion of national tradition was found in the south of Lac Duong.

Where is Qin Shihuang's national jewel, is still a question without an answer.(Artwork: lishiquwen.com).

From then until the Tang Dynasty, undergoing many changes, Ngoc billion of national tradition did not stop changing owners. The treasure is said to be missing during the Five Great Age. From the Song Thai To period later, no one saw it anymore.

However, jade and the nation still continue to appear in bibliographies. In the third year of the million years of the Northern Song Dynasty, a farmer in Henan, when digging his foundations, discovered a jewel. More than ten apprentice scholars think this is the jewel of Qin Shihuang. In the 13th year, Minh Hoang Tri had a person who discovered jade, but the emperor said it was not the real thing.

From the beginning of the Qing dynasty, a jade carving 8 words "pass the destiny of the celestial life, signed the eternal life of the soul" is hidden in the bow. However, Qianlong emperor did not pay much attention because it was a fake. So where is the true national jewel, the question so far has not been solved.
