Chapter 96: Gold Medal Symbol

Early the next morning, Zhu Zhanyan got up early.

Now Ying Tianfu has become a cage for their father and son, and the sooner they escape, the sooner it will be easier for them.

Although it was already spring, it was still relatively late in the morning, but around the time of the hour, the Han family was ready to go.

"Let's go, mother, the child is driving today, you look at the scenery." Zhu Zhanyan jumped up first, and then pulled his mother into the carriage as well.

"Okay, today's mother will watch the scenery with Yu'er."

"You two girls......" Zhu Gaoxu smiled when he saw this.

"Let's go, let's go!" Zhu Zhanyan waved his whip lightly, and the entire convoy slowly moved.

In fact, in March, it is still from Nanjing to the south, and the scenery on the side of the road is really getting better and better, because Nanjing is a relatively warm place, let alone to the south.

In March, the warbler flies and the grass grows.

During the Yongle period before the Xiaoice period, these two words were somewhat inappropriate, but they were still appropriate.

"Mother, how is it, are you still disgusting?" Zhu Zhanyan looked at the blue that had already turned on the side of the road, and looked at his mother with a smile.

"Huh?" Don't say it, I don't think it, listening to her son say this, Princess Han really has a feeling.

"I don't seem to feel anything anymore."

"That's good, too." Zhu Gaoxu, who was sitting in the back carriage, also opened his mouth when he heard this.

"Zhan Yu, don't worry, Yunnan is there anyway, and you can't run."

"The child knows it." Zhu Zhanyan said on his lips, and pulled the reins on his hand.

Now, the father and son have really let go of many, many unnecessary thoughts, and they are going to Yunnan with peace of mind.

It's just that this kind of silence doesn't have to be forever.

Bang~

"Daddy? What's wrong? ”

Zhu Zhanyan, who was talking and laughing with his mother, heard the sound of something being knocked down in the carriage behind him, and couldn't help asking.

"Someone's coming." Zhu Gaoxu poked his head out, his face full of seriousness.

"It's cavalry!"

"Cavalry?" Zhu Zhanyan was stunned when he heard this.

This is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and they haven't even been out of the range of Tianfu, cavalry? There doesn't seem to be any cavalry in Yingtianfu, right?

No, there are also cavalry in Ying Tianfu, and they are just around the palace, right......

Boom, boom.

A rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded, and Zhu Zhanqi, who had been on the battlefield, immediately stood up after hearing this sound, and the whole person became nervous.

He had a bad feeling in his heart.

The speed of the cavalry is very fast, don't look at Zhu Zhanyan, they have been walking all day yesterday, but in fact, they haven't gone far, and with the speed of the cavalry, they can catch up with them without even half a day.

Soon, the cavalry that made Zhu Gaoxu's father and son nervous arrived in front of them, but their father and son were stunned.

Because, it was an acquaintance who came.

"Xu Heng see His Royal Highness the King of Han! See His Royal Highness! ”

Before the horse stopped, Xu Heng turned over and dismounted beautifully, kneeling in front of Zhu Gaoxu's father and son.

"Xu Heng? What are you doing here? Zhu Gaoxu was very surprised.

Xu Heng is the Xing'an Bo of the Ming Dynasty, but his title was not earned by himself, but inherited from his grandfather, Xu Xiang, the first Xing'an Bo of the Ming Dynasty.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he followed Chen Youliang, and then returned to Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of Taizu Gao in Jiangzhou, and accumulated merit to the right of Yanshan to guard the deputy thousand households.

In the second year of Yongle, Xu Xiang died of illness, and his grandson Xu Heng inherited the title of Earl of Xing'an.

If you have a good memory, you will remember that this Xu Heng once appeared in the Han Palace.

That's right, he is a member of the Han Dynasty.

"Your Highness." Xu Heng raised his head, took a small box from the hands of the person next to him, and presented it with both hands.

"On the orders of His Majesty, I came to deliver something to His Highness."

Looking at the box in Xu Heng's hand, Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look at his son.

Zhu Zhanyan was also a little strange, obviously his whole family had already set off, why did the old man send someone to send things, and he had to let Xu Heng, the former Han Wang party, send it?

Could it be that you're here to deliver something good?

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan couldn't help but shake his head and smile, then jumped out of the carriage and took the box from Xu Heng's hand.

"Daddy......"

Opening the box, Zhu Zhanyan looked sluggish, turned his body stiffly, and looked at his father.

In the small box, two golden objects were lying quietly inside.

"This ......" Zhu Gaoxu was also stunned, and looked at Xu Heng with a little uncertainty.

"It's for me?"

"Exactly!" Xu Heng lowered his head and said in a firm tone.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at his son, because he couldn't make up his mind.

This thing is so special, so special that almost everyone, including Zhu Gaochi, doesn't have it.

Zhu Zhanyan gently took the two things out of the box, his hands trembled slightly, but he still smoothly put the two things together.

Click.

A crisp sound, a sign appeared in front of everyone, the front of the book seal script "letter symbol" two words, the back of the seal book "Emperor Holy Decree", the left below is the seal book "Gang dang errand"; On the right is the seal script "The Unbeliever Beheaded".

This thing has a name: the Letter.

This is a very special thing, and if you go back a few decades or hundreds of years, this thing has another name: the Talisman.

That's right, it was the talisman that mobilized the army, but what Zhu Zhanyan was holding in front of him was not just the talisman.

This has to start with the peculiarity of the Ming Dynasty.

Soldier talismans, also called tiger talismans, are things used to mobilize the army, and the appearance of the talismans of various dynasties is not the same, such as the Qinyang Ling Tiger talisman, such as the bronze gilt tiger talisman of the Han Dynasty, such as the fish talisman and turtle talisman of the Tang Dynasty, the ox talisman of the Song Dynasty, the tiger card of the Yuan Dynasty and so on.

In the Ming Dynasty, the talisman also changed, and when Emperor Taizu Gao founded the country, he re-adopted the tiger-shaped talisman, and later there were tokens, etc., but later with the strength of the Ming Dynasty, another thing also came into being.

The gold medal letter is the one that Zhu Zhanyan is holding in his hand now.

Like the general Tiger Talisman, the Gold Medal Talisman is also composed of two parts, and only when the two are combined can the army be mobilized.

Unlike the general Tiger Talisman, the Gold Medal Token cannot actually be called a Tiger Talisman most of the time, because it is more often used as another role.

Voucher for the Tea and Horse Market.

The "History of the Ming Dynasty" recorded: "The so-called gold medal letter is a kind of copper plate-shaped survey, which is specially used as a comparison certificate for the tea and horse trade between the Ming Dynasty and the minority ethnic groups, and plays a role in preventing treachery and deception." The lower number of gold medals is lowered, and the upper number of Tibetan Inner Mansion is a contract, and the three-year-old official is in line".

Now, the upper and lower gold medals are there, which means that the old man has given the right to the tea and horse market to the Han family.

Of course, only in Yunnan.
