Cinnabar Privilege Proof

Yu Youyao took a deep breath. Without thinking about anything else, she picked up the "privilege proof" under the secret decree. This was the most important thing.

For a moment, she was trembling in fear.

The "death-exemption gold plate" was often mentioned in operas.

However, in fact, in every dynasty, there was no so-called death-exemption gold plate. There was only the privilege proof.

Therefore, it was a "book", not a gold plate. It was not a gold medallion. It was made of fine iron, not gold. It was modeled after the pages of a book and had many words engraved on it.

During the Han Dynasty, this contract was all written with cinnabar, so it was called the "Cinnabar Book." Later on, it was mostly written in gold powder. Alternatively, the words were carved.

It recorded in detail the time of the contract, the name of the target, the official title, and the land.
