    The dark-skinned local was sweating profusely, and said anxiously: "How dare a villain lie to the sheriff, Han Xiang really left."

    Wang Anshi got up in a hurry, and rushed out without thinking about changing clothes.

    Mrs. Wu got up silently to clean up the bowls and chopsticks. Wang Yu, who was sitting next to her, raised her face and asked, "Mother, can I go and have a look with your lord?"

    Mrs. Wu shook her head and said, "Stay at home honestly and don't make trouble for your father."

    Wang Yu hummed and sat obediently.

    On the other side, Wang Anshi trotted all the way to Han Qi's house, but before he got close, he heard several men's lung-piercing cries.

    When they entered the yard, they saw several servant-like men kneeling on the ground sobbing, and in front of them, there was a straw mat on which a person was lying, covered with a white cloth, and his face could not be seen.

    Wang Anshi took a deep breath, walked over, gently lifted the white cloth, and what caught his eyes was Han Qi's pale but peaceful face.

    Silently covering the white cloth again, he walked aside and asked: "What happened, obviously Han Xiang was fine two hours ago."

    The middle-aged housekeeper cried until his voice became hoarse: "The villain brought soup and medicine to the master two hours ago, and he fell asleep after drinking it. Then I cooked millet porridge just now, and I want to bring it to the master to keep him warm."  Stomach, after all, the master has been ill for more than a month, and he pulled it out after eating. His stomach didn¡¯t have much rice, and he was thin. When he went up to the second floor, he found that the master¡¯s face was not right.  It's all hard."

    It turns out that the Han Xiang I saw at noon is already a reflection of the light?

    Wang Anshi lowered his eyebrows, and said in a slow tone: "Don't just howl here, go and ask someone to make a coffin immediately, and stay in the house for seven days, and I will help arrange the affairs of Prime Minister Han, go to work quickly."

    The middle-aged housekeeper stood up wiping his tears, and walked out with the other two servants.

    It is a rule to suspend the coffin for seven days. The main reason is that medical technology is underdeveloped and it is impossible to distinguish whether the patient is really dead or not. The seven-day suspension of the coffin can effectively avoid the situation of burying the fake dead patient alive.

    There are only a few servants in Han Qi's family, and no other immediate family members. Now the only one who can call the shots is Wang Anshi, the sheriff.

    After arranging the next tasks for these people, Wang Anshi himself went home.

    Wu walked over with small steps and asked: "Officer, Prime Minister Han really"

    Wang Anshi nodded. He returned to his humble study and wrote a eulogy, an obituary.

    But there is no rush to publish, at least the two articles will be published after the suspension is over.

    After writing the two obituaries, Wang Anshi sat in the study and looked out from the book window.

    The sky in Qiongzhou seems to be bluer than that in the Central Plains, but this kind of blue seems a little depressing now.

    He took a sip of his tea, and his mouth became even more bitter in his heart.

    The current Wang Anshi is very young, and young people have never been afraid of death. Even a year ago when he supervised the Northwest Army, he remained calm on the battlefield.

    ?Because he believed that he had a destiny in him, serving the court and becoming famous all over the world was the path he would definitely take.

    But now, he was a little confused, because Han Qi died right in front of him.

    At the same time, it is very unworthy and unreasonable to die.

    Instead of dying on the extremely dangerous battlefield, not in the court hall with treacherous waves and clouds, but in Qiongzhou, in this land of southern barbarians, his death was ordinary and worthless.

    It's not that he hasn't seen death. He didn't care about how many lives and deaths he saw when he was in charge of the army.

    But now he cares.

    In his mind, the death of civil servants and senior officials like them must be earth-shattering.

    However, Han Qi used his own death to expose a fact.

    No matter how high your status is, death is death.

    Isn't Han Qi's achievements, past and status much better than Wang Anshi's?

    But he still died, silently, without any waves.

    Just like ordinary people, not even as good as a bandit in the army,

    At this time, Wang Anshi felt empathy. He thought, if he reached Han Qi's level and died in the barbarian land without a sound, what a terrible scene it would be.

    He even had other emotions.

    "Between life and death, what is the difference between a prince, a general, and an ordinary person in the market!"

    Wang Anshi muttered to himself, he had read this truth in books, but this was the first time he had a real intuitive feeling.

    only the same kind of deathsp; "How many Semu people can you enter in Hangzhou?"

    "No more than three thousand!" Lu Huiqing thought for a while and said, "No more than two thousand usually."

    "These sailors who came from afar are all strong people." Lu Sen said slowly: "They are excellent laborers, they can build mountains and land, and if they are subdued and filled into the army or used as mercenaries, what do you think?  ?¡±

    The word mercenary appeared for the first time, but it did not hinder Lu Huiqing's understanding.

    It is extremely difficult to learn ideograms, but this advantage is far better than phonograms.

    Lu Huiqing froze for a moment, lost in thought.

    What Lu Sen said opened Lu Huiqing's mind, and he thought of more ideas in an instant.

    ? As a leader among young people, it is nothing more than a common ability to draw inferences from one instance.

    Afterwards, his eyes became brighter and brighter, he stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Master Lu, for your clarification, and I will take my leave now."

    Having said that, he hurried away after saluting.

    Lu Sen smiled and left the Zhao Mansion with Zhao Bilian.

    Five days later, a new notice was posted on the bulletin board of Hangzhou Harbor.

    Mainly for Semu people, but Chinese characters are used.

    Then a large group of Semuren captains and sailors surrounded them, looking at a large number of square characters, scratching their faces.

    Many Semuren captains can speak Song dialect, but they don't know Chinese characters.

    Even if you know a few words, you can't understand the sentences in the official text drafted by Lu Huiqing.

    Then the captain trotted up, stood in front of the two arresters who posted the official document, bowed his head and smiled flatteringly, and said in a substandard Song dialect: "Two little brothers, can you tell us about the new notice?"  What content."

    "Both of us are illiterate." The two arresters held their heads high, proudly and impatiently said: "If you want to understand, why don't you ask a gentleman to come over and explain."

    After speaking, the two left.

    Then a group of Semuren captains wanted to ask those colleagues who were qualified to enter the city of Hangzhou to help invite a gentleman to come out.

    As a result, when the poor scholars heard that they were going to help the Semu people interpret the notice, they immediately lost interest.

    They even pointedly said: "Even if a certain starves to death, he will never be with the barbarians. If people find out, he will lose face."

    ?As a result, after searching and searching, they found a poor scholar who was willing to explain the announcement to them, but the poor scholar charged a very high price.

    Ten taels of silver!

    Isn't it just to help interpret an announcement? It's really a money grab for ten taels of silver.

    ?In the end, the scholar said with a matter of course: "Others know that I interpret the notice with you, so they don't know how to treat me. Could it be that I am not worth ten taels of silver because of someone's face?"

    There was no other way, these captains had no choice but to pool together ten taels of silver and send it over.

    In fact, the captains all have money, ten taels of silver is just a drizzle, but the stingy nature of the Semu merchants made them feel heartbroken, so they joined forces to collect money and send it to poor scholars.

    ? The poor scholar Gao Mou interpreted it reluctantly, but he was quite honest, he took money to do practical things, explained all the regulations in the official document, and answered every question.

    The more these color-eyed captains listened, the higher they got.

    In fact, among the Semu people, there are still some people who can understand official documents, but they keep quiet and go to 'queue' early.

    Like Alizee is also one of them.

    She walked to the gate of Hangzhou Port, and said to the soldiers there: "Two friends, I want to join the priest's office."

    The two soldiers were signing documents for other Semu people who came earlier. When they heard this, they all turned their heads. When they saw it, they were surprised at first, and then indifferent.

    "This woman is quite good-looking, but unfortunately she is a pervert." A soldier shook his head.

    Another soldier asked: "Are you sure you want to enter the Jiaosifang? Lu Zhizhou said that a barbarian girl will enter the Jiaosifang to learn my Chinese etiquette, show my Chinese character, and comfort my Song children. She can leave the workshop in a year or two."  , obtain household registration, and marry at will.¡±

    Like the Ming Dynasty, the Jiaosifang in the Northern Song Dynasty used the family members of criminal officials as residences for tricksters. However, such regulations were hardly enforced in the Northern Song Dynasty.

    ? The Northern Song Dynasty suppressed literati fiercely, but the family members of criminal officials were all released from Beijing, Tokyo and West Roads.

    To put it bluntly, it is a place not far from Bianliang City, so that you can avoid the pain of fatigue, and you won't use it as a trick. It's just a slave in name, and your life is no different from that of ordinary people.

    Generally speaking, Zhao Song was kind to the common people.

    Therefore, the Jiaosifang in the Northern Song Dynasty was more of a symbol in name.

    Alizee smiled lightly, her flamboyant charm was compelling: "I can read and understand official documents."

    "You can still read?" The soldier seemed to be a bit of an official. He was surprised by Alizee, and then shook his head again: "It's a pity that you are from Semu, otherwise I would be willing to marry you as my concubine."

    What he meant was that Alizee didn't even have the qualifications to be a concubine.

    Just because she is a sex-eyed person.

    Alizee also smiled and said: "I also know that the priest will not force the women in the workshop to receive guests."

    The soldier looked at Alizee with some surprise: "Have you been to my Song Dynasty before?"

    "I have been here before." Alizee said: "So after I returned to my hometown, I sold everything and handed over everything. Now that I come to Da Song again, I just want to stay here forever and become a real Song person."It's just a symbol in name.

    Alizee smiled lightly, her flamboyant charm was compelling: "I can read and understand official documents."

    "You can still read?" The soldier seemed to be a bit of an official. He was surprised by Alizee, and then shook his head again: "It's a pity that you are from Semu, otherwise I would be willing to marry you as my concubine."

    What he meant was that Alizee didn't even have the qualifications to be a concubine.

    Just because she is a sex-eyed person.

    Alizee also smiled and said: "I also know that the priest will not force the women in the workshop to receive guests."

    The soldier looked at Alizee with some surprise: "Have you been to my Song Dynasty before?"

    "I have been here before." Alizee said: "So after I returned to my hometown, I sold everything and handed over everything. When I come to Da Song now, I just want to stay here forever and become a real Song person. ?
