There are often scenes of traitors seizing the jade seal and robbing the imperial power in movies and TV dramas. Why do you have to fight to the death and robbing these square jade? Can't you do another one according to the style? The fundamental battle for the Jade Seal HTML is the symbol of its imperial power In modern times, when issuing announcements and issuing certificates, it is necessary to stamp an official seal to prove its legitimacy. This measure has been implemented thousands of years ago. In ancient times, when emperors issued orders, reviewed memorials, and conveyed their orders, they needed to use the seal to prove their authenticity, and this "seal" was called "jade seal" . It is said that the person who first started using the "jade seal" was The first "emperor" in Chinese history Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng . He stipulated that the seal used in the imperial power at that time was called "seal" , and the seal used by ministers and civilians was "seal" . With a seal, you can reflect the unique and supreme imperial power. Qin Shihuang concentrated all his power in the central government and gathered it in his own hands, which shows that Qin Shihuang was constantly improving the centralized system in all aspects . Since the jade seal was passed down, there has been such a saying that emperor edicts without jade seals cannot be ordered to the world, and documents without seals cannot be enforced. This is a rule and system passed down since the Qin and Han Dynasties. People in the world believe that the jade seal is a symbol of imperial power. The edict without the jade seal is useless, so the first step in fighting for imperial power is to obtain the jade seal. Whether it is a rebel thief who attacks the palace and kills the emperor to seize the world, or sets up a plan between the scheming and counselors in the court and the public, they are all eyeing the jade seal, and the succession under orthodox throne also needs to transfer the imperial power through the inheritance of the jade seal. jade seals continue in the past dynasties. In different eras, the standards for the use of "seal" and "seal" are not consistent. According to the historical book " Tongdian ", which specifically describes the rules and regulations of all dynasties, before , gold and jade were used as seals, and seals were usually dragons and tigers. . Since the Qin Dynasty, the seal used by the emperor was called the "seal", which was made of jade; the crown princes and princes used gold seals, and the seals were all in the style of turtle; Dukes, lords and lords used gold seals, officials above the fifth rank used silver seals, and bronze seals below the fifth rank were. Such strict rules and regulations, layers of chasm that cannot be crossed, and officials of lower ranks cannot see the rumored jade seal with their own eyes, let alone imitate it. During the Qin Dynasty, there was a total of six-party jade seal , and there was also a legendary " imperial jade seal " represents the imperial seal whether the jade seal can be imitated by
The emperors of all dynasties obtained this jade seal because they were chosen by God to inherit the treasure, which caused them to rob and change their owners repeatedly, and eventually there was no news.
However, according to records, Qin Shihuang once had a jade seal called "Secret of Emperor Tian" . This seal was ordered by Qin Shihuang at that time to choose the white jade in Lantian, Shaanxi. The jade craftsman in the palace was carefully carved by hand. The Chihu seal on the seal was carved vividly. Such a skill of ingeniousness is hard to find in the world.
So if you want to imitate such a jade seal, you first need to select extremely precious jade as raw materials across the country, imagine how many such materials can be produced in that year, and there is enough money to buy it.
Even if you have money, you still have raw materials. Then the jade craftsman in the palace has only served the emperor for generations. If he takes on life privately, it would be a death sentence, and it was a major rebellion like forging a jade seal.
settled for the second best, looking for folk craftsmen to carve jade, folk craftsmen could not fabricate it out of thin air without drawings, and at that time, people who knew this craftsmanship would basically be recruited into the palace and become imperial craftsmen in the palace.
Some people may think that since they have rebelled, they can simply recreate a jade seal, which can also be used as a symbol of imperial power.
In fact, the previous traitors also thought of this way, forging the jade seal. But for all Chinese dynasties, jade seals are like inheritance, passed down from generation to generation, so the "National Jade Seal" was created, because jade seals are the symbol of imperial power.
The most important thing about the feudal dynasty is orthodoxy and "being obedient in heaven" , because the emperor is the supreme symbol. If the origin of the throne is unknown, the entire country will fall into doubts about the impure of the royal bloodline.
And the princes and ministers were unwilling to obey the orders of people of this kind of origin, which would ultimately lead to the failure of the entire dynasty to be effectively governed.
For example, the Yongzheng emperor in the Qing Dynasty was said to be unknown because it was at that time, and the winner was naturally the one who sat on the throne. So rumors spread everywhere, and it was said that Yongzheng took advantage of the late emperor's serious illness and privately tampered with the will of his heirs and obtained the throne.
So in order to completely eliminate these public opinions, Yongzheng personally imprisoned his blood brothers, executed all the ministers who resisted him, and then forcibly suppressed public opinion.
Although people in the end dare not say that Yongzheng was not wrong, the inner doubts about Yongzheng's ascension to the throne have always existed, otherwise they would not have been passed down to this day.
Therefore, when considering re-made jade seal, it will make people unstable and ministers disobey . Such a dynasty cannot last for a long time, so jade seals, as a symbol of imperial power, cannot be made at will.
