Chapter 908 Human Trafficking
It was cold.
Above the main hall, the ministers were still accusing Qin Tian.
Qin Tian didn't care about these accusations.
Li Shimin looked at Qin Tian and asked, "What did you and Cheng Yanjin go to Qinglou to investigate?" ”
"Saint, because of the coming of all nations next year, in recent times, a lot of people have come to Chang'an City, and the arrival of these people has made Chang'an City's trade more and more prosperous, and at the same time, the business of Qinglou is also much better, and the place we went to yesterday is the gathering place of several new Qinglou in the past month."
Qin Tian said this, but everyone's expressions did not relax in the slightest, because what Qin Tian said was something they had known for a long time.
They didn't know what Qin Tian was talking about.
"Before this, Lu Guogong and I found out that I had several cases of human trafficking in Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty recently, and there were also many women trafficked from other places, and the minister and Lu Guogong felt that the sale of these people was mostly because of the rise of Qinglou, and they needed some women to meet the needs of men, so they used various methods to obtain these women."
Speaking of this, everyone's expressions were slightly stunned, they somewhat understood what Qin Tian meant.
"Shengshang, what Qin Tian said is right, as far as the woman we saved, he was sold into the Qinglou, but she herself didn't want to stay in the Qinglou, so she didn't even hesitate to jump off the building, if this kind of thing is not controlled, it is a very dangerous thing for my Datang population."
Cheng Yanjin's mind spun quickly, and when he understood the meaning of Qin Tian's words, he immediately stood up and echoed.
And after he agreed like this, it became more and more that Qin Tian went to the Qinglou to really just want to investigate the human trafficking, not to visit the Qinglou.
Even his rescue is only part of his job.
The eyes in which everyone looked at Qin Tian were already a little different.
Gao Shilian's face changed slightly, and then he stood up again: "Shengshang, don't listen to Qin Tian's nonsense, he is a county duke, Cheng Biting Jin is a national duke, it's just a matter of human trafficking, do you need them to investigate it in person, it's clear that the two of them are going to visit the Qinglou, and it's just an excuse to find this, and please ask the Holy Mingjian." ”
Gao Shilian was very indignant, he didn't expect Qin Tian to be so clever, obviously he was going to visit the Qinglou, but he still said something about investigating human trafficking, which was really shameless.
Qin Tian here, smiled lightly: "Saint, no matter how big or small, care is big, if you let the population buy and sell like this, I don't know how many people will die because of this, and I don't know how many people will die, so the family is ruined, my Datang is now in need of people, in the long run, this will become a hidden danger for my Datang, so the minister proposed that there should be some explicit provisions in this regard, if it is not voluntary, no one is allowed to sell other women into the Qinglou, once it is detected, it will be killed, and all Qinglou will also be punished for joint sitting." ……”
Qin Tian didn't mention going to the Qinglou, he only talked about human trafficking, compared to his visit to the Qinglou, human trafficking is a big deal, as long as everyone shifts their attention to this, then he doesn't have to worry about the next thing.
Human trafficking is indeed a big deal.
After Qin Tian finished saying this, Wei Zheng stood up.
"Holy Lord, the minister thinks that what Lord Qin said is reasonable, people can't buy and sell casually, even their parents, they can't buy and sell casually, we must curb the occurrence of this kind of thing, otherwise there will always be people selling their children, and these children don't want to go to the Qinglou, so how many problems and troubles will this cause?"
Although Wei Zheng didn't think that Qin Tian had no intention of visiting the Qinglou, but in comparison, he cared more about human trafficking, after all, who hasn't been to a place like the Qinglou?
It's just that they didn't cause trouble, and if they continue to talk like this, it will probably be difficult for them to go to the Qinglou in the future.
So, if you can divert the topic, then divert the topic.
There are many people who have the same idea as Wei Zheng, so after Wei Zheng finished speaking, others also stood up one after another.
"Holy Lord, this kind of thing of selling children is really cruel, and it is simply against human ethics for someone to do such a thing."
"That's it, that's it, this kind of thing must be strictly stopped, otherwise there is no family affection between people, how can I be filial piety?"
“…………”
Everyone is talking about human trafficking, and Gao Shilian is not good at being popular with them.
"Holy Lord, we are discussing the matter of Qin Tian visiting the Qinglou."
"Lord Gao, the official has made it very clear, I didn't go to the Qinglou,"
Qin Tian argued with reason, and above the court, there was chaos, and the situation that was originally unfavorable to Qin Tian suddenly became blurred.
Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair, looking at this situation, to say that Qin Tian didn't go to visit the Qinglou, Li Shimin really didn't believe it, but if he wanted to say that Qin Tian was competing with someone for a woman, Li Shimin didn't believe it.
So in this case, it is very likely that Qin Tian really went to visit the Qinglou, but he saw an injustice in the Qinglou, so he took care of it.
It doesn't hurt.
However, the issue of human trafficking raised by Qin Tian really needs to be paid attention to.
If people's safety is not guaranteed, then there will be hidden dangers in the stability of Datang, right?
Watching the fierce debate among the ministers, Li Shimin waved his hand.
"Okay, what you Aiqing said makes sense, human trafficking must be regulated, and human beings and children must not be trafficked at will, and once it is discovered, whether it is sold or bought, it must be severely punished, and this matter will be handed over to Qin Aiqing to do."
Li Shimin said this, and the entire hall suddenly fell silent.
And everyone has already understood what Li Shimin meant.
He didn't care about Qin Tian's visit to the Qinglou anymore, and now he only cared about human trafficking.
Gao Shiren can't be honest, but now that Li Shimin has said so, it is useless for him to say anything.
Qin Tian here, after smiling lightly, he responded.
In fact, since he brought Zhang Yan out of Baihualou yesterday, Qin Tian had already expected that someone would impeach, so last night, he had already thought about how to solve this kind of problem.
And when it came time to solve the problem of being impeached, he also wanted to do such a thing as human trafficking by the way.
Human trafficking is a pain for many families, and if it is allowed to develop, there will be more and more cases of missing people, so it is necessary for Datang to control it in advance and prevent this kind of thing from happening.
It's not easy to do, or it's something that can't be completely controlled.
However, even if he can't control it completely, he, Qin Tian, has to do something to come out and make this kind of thing happen as little as possible.
At least, there can't be such a thing in Chang'an City.
