Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    But just when Li Min was about to get angry, an old official led by him came forward and said: "Master Yang is right. I remember that some of the female slaves captured with Feng Shuyu are still there, so I sent someone to inquire.  If this is really the case, then let her be reunited with her brother!"

    Hearing what the old official said, Li Min's expression finally softened.  The Feng brothers and sisters were already in despair, but they didn't expect that this young man who appeared halfway would change their fate. This made the two of them inexplicably ecstatic. Among them, Feng Shijie quickly picked up his sister and ran to Li Min. Then they both knelt down and said  : "Thank you, Master, for your help!"

    Li Min didn't think it mattered, and waved his hand to let them get up. The Feng brothers and sisters also knew etiquette. After thanking Li Min, they also thanked shopkeeper Feng and the old officials next to them.

    But after a while, the person sent by the old official to ask questions came back, and the matter was clarified. It was indeed as the Feng brothers and sisters said, they were just staying in the other party's house temporarily, and they were not from that wealthy family.  Moreover, the female slave who answered also confirmed the Han identities of the Feng brothers and sisters.

    Now there was no doubt that the Feng brothers and sisters were crying with joy, but no one noticed it. However, Li Min found that the Feng brothers and sisters were happy, but they seemed to have something on their minds, and there was a bit of helplessness in their eyes.  .  At this time, the old official also announced: "Now that Feng Shuyu's Han identity has been confirmed, I will hereby announce that Feng Shuyu will be relieved"

    "Slow down!" Just when the old official was about to announce the release of Feng Shuyu's status as a slave, he was suddenly interrupted. An official from the Qi Prince's Palace, wearing a light blue official uniform, walked out from behind Li Min and the others.  White and fat.  He had a tight, fat face and looked as if everyone owed him money.

    "Old Huo. Who allowed you to release this slave girl privately?" The fat and white official looked at Li Min and the others lightly, looking down on others.  It seemed that he didn't pay attention to everyone present at all.  It can be seen from his light blue clothes that this man is a ninth-grade official. Although his position does not seem to be high, he is very different from the old official named Lao Huo. Lao Huo and the others are just officials, and they are not  He is not an official, and although the fat and white official in front of him is only a ninth-rank official, he is an upright official and has a name in Prince Qi's palace.  This alone is enough for ordinary people not to look down upon.

    When Lao Huo heard the visitor's questioning, he was a little panicked at the time. He bowed and said, "This woman has been confirmed to be Han Chinese, and she has nothing to do with the wealthy Japanese family. According to the original decree of His Royal Highness King Qi,  It is to be released immediately.¡±

    Li Min now occupies a large amount of land, and his officials must manage the land and population.  The original royal official system was already very backward, so Li Min added many official positions to the royal official system, such as the person in front of him who was called the slave chief.  They are the officials who manage the slave trade in a place, but the general slave leader is not the only one, judging from the current scale of the slave port.  It is estimated that there will be three or four slave chiefs managing it together.

    When the slave leader surnamed Wang heard what Lao Huo said, he became furious and said: "Nonsense. Are you saying that this woman is Han? Is she a Han? Are the witnesses and physical evidence complete? If not. If not, the Japanese slaves were released without permission."  Can you bear the crime?"

    ????????????? This slave king started criticizing Lao Huo harshly, without any regard for the fact that the old man was already a gray-haired old man.  When Li Min heard this, he frowned. This Wang Nuchang was obviously trying to make things difficult for others. Witnesses could be found, but Datang did not have an ID card with him, so there was no way to find physical evidence unless he returned to Feng Shijie.  My father's hometown in the south went to the local government to check the household registration, but it was so troublesome to use just a slave girl. The other party obviously didn't want to let her go.

    Lao Huo was also scolded by Chief Wang so that he did not dare to speak out, and the several minor officials next to him were also silent.  The Feng brothers and sisters originally thought they could get out of trouble, but they didn't expect that after the slave Wang scolded him, the old official who had helped them just now did not dare to speak out, and was about to fly away when he saw the freedom in hand. This Feng Shijie was facing  If Feng Shuyu is dying, and Feng Shuyu is crying like rain, and looks like pear blossoms with rain, anyone who has a little bit of compassion for her will sigh secretly.

    "Hey, Nun Chang Wang is showing off his power again, but you are really ignorant, Lao Huo. Last time, Nun Chang Wang kindly came to your house to propose marriage and wanted to take your daughter as a concubine in the sixth room, but you didn't  If you don¡¯t agree, you¡¯ll have to suffer now!¡± At this moment, a lazy voice from behind the crowd suddenly joked, and then the crowd was separated by several officials, and a young official dressed the same as Wang Nuchang came in and looked at  He should also look like a slave leader.

    I saw that this young slave leader was about twenty-three or four years old, with a tall and handsome figure. If he took off his official uniform and put on a robe, and held a folding fan in his hand, he would definitely be a handsome young man.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ¨C? to the young servants of the country???, the face that was originally full of official authority had a hint of anger. The other person's last few words clearly meant that Lao Huo was ignorant. In fact, they were accusing him of avenging public and private revenge. Everyone present could understand clearly, so  Many people showed a hint of disdain towards the slave leader Wang.

    "Chief Xiao, I am handling official business. Do you think I am handling it unfairly and want to intervene?" Chief Wang ignored the expressions of the people around him and snorted coldly.  Although they are both slave masters, they have different divisions between them. Wang slave master is in charge of confirming the slave status. He has the final say whether to release Feng Shuyu or not, while the young slave master Xiao is in charge of slave classification and pricing.  , Logically speaking, I can¡¯t control today¡¯s affairs.

    However, this young Nun Zhang was an upright person. He glanced at Nun Chang Wang coldly, and then looked at the Feng brothers and sisters kneeling on the ground. When he saw the beautiful Feng Shuyu, he felt a little confused at the moment.  Surprised, I wondered if the person named Wang was unwilling to let her go. She turned out to be such a beautiful woman.

    But when Chief Xiao saw Li Min among the tiger sharks, he was a little surprised. He felt that he looked familiar, but for a while he couldn't think of where he had seen him before.  But at this time, he was not allowed to think about it. After looking around at the people around him, he said to Chief Wang: "It is your responsibility to confirm the slave status, Chief Wang. Naturally, I will not interfere, but  His Highness has long issued a strict order prohibiting the trade of Han people as slaves. If Chief Wang sells this woman named Feng as a slave today, then out of duty, I have no choice but to report this matter and wait for the superiors to investigate.  If this matter is cleared up, whoever is at fault will bear the corresponding responsibility!"

    Since Li Min got involved in the slave hunting industry, foreign slaves have become the mainstream among slaves. Coupled with the development of industry and commerce, manpower is needed everywhere. Han people do not need to sell themselves to make a living, so the proportion of Han people among the trading population is increasing.  Small, in the end Li Min simply issued a decree prohibiting the trading of Han people!  This law may not be enforced in the Tang Dynasty, but as long as it is under Li Min's rule, this law is an iron law. Some people have violated this law before, and the result was that they ransacked their homes and exterminated their families. Since then,  No one dares to try the law anymore.

    Chief Wang heard that the other party was willing to break up with him for a female slave. If he was really allowed to bring this matter up, and it turned out that Feng Shuyu was really a Han, then the crime would be serious, and the lightest thing would be to lose his official position.  , or even life is not guaranteed.

    However, if Chief Wang gave in, he would lose face. Besides, he also had his own support, so he sneered and said: "Mr. Xiao, you have such a loud tone, don't you Lanling Xiao family  Do you really think you can overpower our Taiyuan Wang family?"

    Hearing that Chief Wang not only announced his family background, but also called out the origin of Chief Xiao, everyone onlookers screamed in surprise. At the same time, they involuntarily stepped back a few steps, even a little timidly.  He turned around and left, not daring to stay here anymore for fear of accidentally getting into trouble.

    Li Min felt a little angry when he saw the reactions of the people around him. Although he didn't know the fat and white Nun Chang Wang, he did recognize the handsome Nun Chang Xiao, because he was Wen Xin's cousin Xiao Lin and also Xiao Nun.  Yu's favorite grandson only came to his Prince Qi's Mansion in August last year. Originally, Li Min wanted Xiao Lin to take a more relaxed civilian position, but Xiao Yu told him to let Xiao Lin start from the bottom of the officialdom and get more training.  That's why he was arranged to become a ninth-grade slave leader.

    Wang Nuchang exposed the origins of himself and Xiao Lin. The reason why people around him avoided him was mainly because this was no longer a dispute between the two of them, but involved Li Min's inner court. Everyone was interested in it.  We know that Li Min's princess is from the Lanling Xiao family, and Wang Zihao has returned to the Taiyuan Wang family in the past few years, so Xijun, who is from Yan, can also be regarded as a member of the Taiyuan Wang family, although Wen Xin and Xijun are sisters.  The love is very deep, and there is no fight between the two, but for people outside the house, it is completely different.

    Although Wen Xin is a princess, she has never given birth, but Xijun gave birth to a daughter earlier than her. Although the daughter is not as valuable as the son, in the eyes of the Wang family, it is a sign that Li Min loves Xijun.  In addition, Wen Xin's superficial identity is just the concubine daughter of the Xiao family. The Lanling Xiao family does not have many capable talents under Li Min, but the Wang family in Taiyuan is different. Wang An is Li Min's Wangfu, and his identity is only  Under Li Min, Wang Zihao is Li Min's right-hand assistant, helping him manage a large number of properties. It can be said that he is one of the people Li Min trusts most.

    In addition, with Li Min's development outside, many Wang family's children were recruited to serve as officials in the mansion, so the Wang family in Taiyuan occupied a lot of power under Li Min, and the head of the Wang family in front of Li Min was  One of them, that's why he had the confidence to challenge Xiao Lin.  (To be continued.)
