     Shí Zhōngguó chū dìng, Wèi Tuó píng Nányuè, yīn wàng zhī. Gāozǔ shǐ Gǔ cì tuó yìn wéi Nányuè wáng. Gǔ zhì, Wèi Tuó tuíjié jījù jiàn Gǔ. [Pinyin]

     When the Middle Kingdoms were first conquered, Wei Tuo pacified the Southern Yue and thus became king over them. Emperor Gaozu sent Gu [to Wei Tuo] as an emissary to bestow a seal and confirm him as the king of the Southern Yue. Gu arrived, and Wei Tuo received him wearing a mallet-shaped bun and sitting with legs spread out [signs of disrespect].
