Chapter 317: Gift from the Ghost Immortal, Danshu Iron Coupon

Gao Jingfei was immersed in the surprise of getting a magic weapon spirit ship, when he saw a tray appear in the hand of his second brother Liu An, the king of Huainan, who had just been worshipped.

"Third brother, although my brother has obtained a lot of magic weapons and spiritual objects over the years, it seems that I can't hold the table compared to the few treasures in your hand, and this thing is the only thing that my brother will give you as a meeting gift!"

The second volume of "Popular Sayings and Evidence" quotes "Jinling Magazine": "The newcomers perform family rituals, commonly known as 'dividing the big and small', self-esteem and humility, as well as relatives and friends, are all worshiped by the two newcomers. After the recipient worships, they have their own gifts, which is called a greeting gift. ”

This custom of giving gifts to the elders and then getting the gifts from the elders has existed since ancient times, although Liu An and Xiang Yu are ancients, but they have also existed for more than 2,000 years, and some habits have changed a lot with the passage of time.

Moreover, they are very appreciative and optimistic about this new brother, so they will not hesitate to give them heavy gifts.

Gao Jingfei was a little embarrassed and said:

"Second brother, you and eldest brother are too polite, and you and my brother are not here to receive gifts."

Liu An didn't speak, but motioned for him to open it and take a look.

Gao Jingfei had no choice but to take the tray, uncover the brocade cloth on it, and find that it was a tile-shaped black iron plate or iron plate.

The iron plate is more than 20 centimeters long, and it depicts a series of neat small characters written in seal characters in gold characters.

When Gao Jingfei first consulted the cultivation materials, he and Guo Shihu studied the writing of some ancient characters, although it is still relatively difficult to write, but there is basically no problem in reading, and most of the ancient texts can be understood in general.

And he also recognized that the iron plate in front of him was depicted with gold lacquer is the Han seal, since the first emperor established the unified Great Qin Empire, the book is the same text, the car is the same track, based on the Qin seal simplified to write a more standardized small seal. The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, and the official script in the Western Han Dynasty was all seal characters, and it was not until the Eastern Han Dynasty that the official script began to be used.

Relatively speaking, the Han seal is easier to interpret than the Qin seal, of course, this is in the eyes of scholars and experts who study these, and it is difficult to distinguish between the Han seal and the Qin seal in the eyes of ordinary people.

It just so happened that Gao Jingfei could make out the meaning of about one-third of the seal characters inside, and understood that this should be an edict document similar to an ancient holy decree.

And he didn't need to turn on his spiritual vision, just holding the tray could feel the huge and ethereal majesty contained in this thing.

Gao Jingfei's perception made a slight contact with it, and he could see a huge sea of clouds full of yellow color, and one of the strange beasts resembling a tiger and leopard but with scaly horns was roaring at him.

Gao Jingfei hurriedly retracted his perception, and a layer of cold sweat broke out slightly on his back.

"What is this?"

Xiang Yu laughed:

"Why are you so reckless, how can the fortune of the dynasty be so casual to snoop? I didn't get eaten by the luck true dragon because you are also a descendant of the Han family, and you have a relationship with the official business. ”

Of course, Xiang Yu still hasn't said a word, that is, the Han dynasty already belongs to history in this world, so his luck has been greatly reduced, and his aggression will not be so strong.

Only then did Gao Jingfei understand that what he saw was the "true dragon" condensed by the luck of the three dynasties of the Western Han, the Eastern Han and the Shu Han dynasties of the Han Dynasty. As for why the dragon is that look, in fact, most of the ancient dragons before the Song Dynasty were beast-shaped rather than snake-shaped, and some dragon-shaped ancient jade ornaments such as jade hooks, jade rings, etc., are for practical effects so the dragon body will be elongated.

This point had already been learned from Guo Shihu when he practiced the idea of the Five Spirits before.

Moreover, the idea of the Five Spirits Concept that they cultivated actually had a certain relationship with Liu An, because it is said that these Five Spirits Diagram still flowed out of Huainanzi.

Liu An took this opportunity to point to Gao Jingfei and said:

"The art of looking at qi has always been to look at it from a distance, from the sidelines and not up close, especially when you spy on the luck of the dynasty or when you practice a master, you will be attacked if you are not careful, the third brother should learn the lesson of this time, and you must not ......act so casually in the future."

Gao Jingfei said respectfully to the two:

"Thank you two brothers for your advice, the younger brother has been taught......"

Then he asked curiously:

"I don't know what this gift is for the second brother? It actually contains the luck of my Han family! ”

Liu An hadn't answered yet, but Xiang Yu smiled:

"Haha, this time the official trip is a big deal, third brother, do you know that this is the year when Pei Gong was called the emperor and the queen divided the kings, and when the father of the official was the king of Huainan, he gave a batch of Danshu iron coupons together with it, for the use of the king of Huainan to canonize his heroes, it is said that it was made by Pei Gongqin's order, so this Danshu iron coupon can carry such a strong dynasty luck."

In front of Liu An, Xiang Yu did not call Liu Bang old boy, but honored him by the name Pei Gong before he became the emperor.

"That's what it is!"

When Gao Jingfei heard this, he knew that this iron plate was the legendary "Danshu Iron Coupon".

This thing is actually the so-called "gold medal for avoiding death" that everyone knows about when the common people often see it in dramas and texts, and those courtiers who are going to be punished and executed by the emperor show it.

This thing is a certificate given by the ancient emperors to the meritorious heroes to enjoy preferential treatment or exemption from sin. It is a symbol of the lordship.

Danshu refers to characters written in cinnabar, and Tieqi refers to documents made of iron. The diploma is written on the iron plate with Dan, so it is called the Dan book iron coupon. In order to gain trust and prevent counterfeiting, the iron scroll was also cut open from it, and half of it was kept by the court and the princes. Commonly known as "Danshu Iron Deed", also known as "Golden Book Iron Coupon", "Golden Coupon", "Silver Coupon", "World Coupon" and so on, referred to as "Iron Coupon".

At the beginning, after Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, he ordered Xiao He Ci to decree, Han Xin to apply for military law, Zhang Cang to set the regulations, and his uncle and grandson to make etiquette; He also swore an oath with the meritorious heroes, and the Danshu, the iron deed, the gold and the stone chamber were hidden in the temple. The "Fu" refers to the Danshu Iron Coupon, which is also a contract certificate between the emperor and the meritorious and important ministers.

Of course, the earliest "iron coupons" did not have privileges such as exemption from crime and death, but only as a certificate for the promotion of officials and marquises. Among the heroes of the Han Dynasty and their descendants who were given iron coupons that year, there were many people who were convicted or even executed.

At this time, a waiter stepped forward with a red pen, Liu An took the red pen, and with a wave of the Danshu iron coupon flew in front of him, and then Liu An wrote a place name and Gao Jingfei's name in the blank space on it.

In the dark, Gao Jingfei on the side felt that an invisible force had blessed him, and it seemed that something had changed, and nothing seemed to have changed.

However, when he sensed it carefully, he could feel that there was a power behind him, and there was a close connection to the land space in the distance.

"Second brother, what are you?"

Liu An waved his hand, and the written Danshu iron coupon returned to Gao Jingfei's hand.

He said: "I don't have any treasures to get my hands on, so I will give you the land of Danyang as a food town, this Danyang was still the lord of Huainan when my father was in power, and then I was cut down when I succeeded to the throne, but Wang Mang usurped the country in the year Gaozu borrowed my help to renew the mandate of heaven for the Han family, and transferred the hometown of Huainan in the underworld and the surrounding counties to me, so I also have the right to split the land there." ”

Hearing that Liu An had carved out a county from his own fiefdom to transfer it to himself, Gao Jingfei hurriedly pushed back the Danshu Iron Coupon and said:

"Second brother, this land of the underworld is useless to me, and I am destined to return to my own world soon, please take back this iron coupon!"

Liu An smiled and said:

"I have become a ghost immortal, the world can go, this ghost country in the yin world and I have little use, but you, after getting this iron coupon, even if you return to another world, as long as the world also has the Han dynasty exists, this iron coupon can help you regain a fief in the yin world, not only can you use this position to travel back and forth between the yin and yang worlds, but also collect some special cultivation things that are not in the yang world, and there are more blessings in luck, to put it mildly, even if you die unexpectedly, you can also re-condense the true spirit in the netherworld fiefdom and become a prince of the underworld, It can also be regarded as a life-saving certificate. ”
