The so-called ancient national jade seal is also called the national seal. It is an object engraved with jade by Li Si, the chancellor of the Qin Dynasty, on the orders of the First Emperor, and is a certificate for the emperors of the Chinese dynasties.
This ancestral jade seal is four inches in circumference, with five dragons on the top plate, and the front is engraved with the eight seal characters of Li Si's book "Ordered by Heaven, That Is Shou Yongchang" as a relic of "Imperial Power, Heavenly Empowerment, Orthodoxy and Legitimacy".
After the Qin Dynasty, successive emperors hoped to get this jade seal, so as to gain glory and authority. If you get this jade seal, it symbolizes its "ordination from heaven". In a sense, the Imperial Jade Seal is even more important than the Emperor himself, because without the Jade Seal, the Emperor loses all his power.
Even if he becomes an emperor, those who do not have this jade seal appear to be insufficient and are scorned by the world.
Generations of people who want to have the throne of the emperor have competed for it, resulting in this heirloom jade seal changing hands many times, appearing several times, and finally disappearing, and has not been discovered again, becoming a mystery for eternity.
The Chuanguo Jade Seal seems to be just an object made of jade, but in fact it represents the magnates of an era. Because of this national jade seal, many hidden stories have occurred, which has become an important material for future generations to understand the history and culture of our nation; at the same time, it has also written a lot of legendary stories that make people sigh.
