But just when Li Su was just about to get angry, he saw an old official led by him step forward and said: "What Yang Gongzi said is reasonable, the old man remembers that a few of the female slaves captured with Feng Shuyu are still there, so I will send someone to inquire, if this is the case, then let her go back to reunite with her brother!" ”

Hearing this old official's words, Li Su's face finally softened. The Feng brothers and sisters were already desperate, but they didn't expect that the young man who came out halfway suddenly reversed their fate, which made the two of them ecstatic, among which Feng Shijie quickly pulled up his sister and ran to Li Su, and then both knelt down and said: "Xie Gongzi's helping hand!" ”

Li Su felt that it didn't matter, and waved his hand to let them get up, and the Feng brothers and sisters were also very polite, and after thanking Li Su, they also thanked the Feng shopkeeper and the old official next to them.

However, after a while, the person sent by the old official to interrogate came back, and the matter was clarified, indeed as the Feng brothers and sisters said, they were just temporarily living in the other party's mansion, not from the wealthy family, and the female slave who answered also confirmed the Han identity of the Feng brothers and sisters.

There was no doubt now, the Feng brothers and sisters cried with joy, but no one found out, but Li Su found that the Feng brothers and sisters were happy, but they seemed to have something on their minds, and there was a little helplessness in their eyes. And the old official also opened his mouth at this time and announced: "Since Feng Shuyu's Han identity has been determined, then the old man hereby announces that Feng Shuyu's ...... will be lifted."

"Slow!" Just when the old official was about to announce the dismissal of Feng Shuyu's slave status, he was suddenly interrupted, only to see an official of the Qi Palace's Mansion wearing a light cyan official uniform walking out from behind Li Shu and them, white and fat. He had a fat face, and it looked as if everyone else owed him money.

"Old Huo. Who gave you permission to let this slave girl out privately? The white and fat official glanced at Li Su and them lightly, looking like a dog looking down on people. It doesn't seem to pay attention to the people present at all. It can be distinguished from his light cyan clothes that this person is a petty official of the ninth grade, although it seems that the position is not high, but it is very different from the old official named Lao Huo, Lao Huo They are just officials, not officials, and although the white fat official in front of him is only a ninth grade, he is an upright official, and he has a name in the palace of the king of Qi. This alone is enough for ordinary people not to underestimate.

Lao Huo was also a little flustered when he heard the questioning of the visitor, and bowed down and said: "Captain Qiqi Wang, this woman has been confirmed to be a Han Chinese, and she has nothing to do with the wealthy family of the Wa Kingdom, according to the decree of His Royal Highness the King of Qi, she must be released immediately." ”

Li Su now occupied a large amount of land, and his officials had to manage this land and population. The original royal official system was already very backward, so Li Su added many official positions in addition to the official system of the royal palace, such as the person in front of him who was called the slave chief. It is an official who manages the slave trade in a place, but the general slave chief is not the only one, judging by the current scale of the slave port. It is estimated that there will be three or four slave commanders to manage it together.

When the slave commander surnamed Wang heard Lao Huo's words, he was furious and said, "Nonsense. You say that this woman is Han, is she Han? Whether the physical evidence is complete, and if not. Do you take the charge of releasing the slaves without authorization? ”

As soon as this Wang slave came up, he criticized Lao Huo fiercely, and he didn't understand that the other party was already a gray-haired old man. And Li Su frowned when he heard it, this Wang slave chief is obviously embarrassed, and the human witness can be found, but Datang does not have the ID card he carries with him, so there is no way to find physical evidence, unless he returns to Feng Shijie's father's southern hometown, and then goes to the local government to check the household registration, but for the sake of a female slave, where is it so troublesome, the other party obviously does not want to release people.

Lao Huo was also scolded by Wang Nu and didn't dare to speak out, and several small officials next to him were also silent. The Feng brothers and sisters originally thought that they could get out of trouble, but they didn't expect that after this Wang slave was scolded, the old official who was helping him just now didn't dare to speak out, and he was about to fly away when he saw the freedom in his hand.

"Yo, Captain Wang Nu is playing prestige again, but Lao Huo, you really don't know each other, last time Captain Wang Nu kindly came to your house to propose marriage, and wanted to accept your daughter as a concubine in the sixth room, but you didn't agree, now you are suffering!" At this moment, suddenly a lazy voice at the back of the crowd teased, and then the crowd was separated by several officials, and a young official who was dressed in the same way as the slave commander Wang walked in, and it seemed that he should also be a slave commander.

I saw that this young slave was about twenty-three or four years old, tall and handsome, if he took off his official uniform and changed into a robe, and held a folding fan in his hand, he would definitely be a beautiful son.

And when the young slave chief Wang Nu Chang saw the young slave chief who walked in, there was a trace of anger on his face that was full of official authority, and the few words behind the other party clearly said that Lao Huo was not interested, but in fact, he was accusing him of communiqué personal vendetta, and everyone present could hear it, so many people showed a trace of disdain for this Wang Nu Chang.

"Captain Xiao, this official is handling official business, do you think that I am handling it unfairly and want to interfere?" Wang Nuchang ignored the expressions of the people around him, but snorted coldly. Although they are both slave chiefs, they have their own divisions with each other, Wang Nu Chang is in charge of confirming the slave status, and Feng Shuyu has the final say, while the young Xiao Nu Chang is in charge of slave classification and pricing, and it stands to reason that he can't manage today's affairs.

However, this young Xiao Nu Chang is an upright person, he glanced at Wang Nu Chang coldly, and then looked at the Feng brothers and sisters kneeling on the ground, when he saw Feng Shuyu, who was beautiful, he was also a little surprised, thinking that the surname Wang was unwilling to let go, it turned out to be such a beautiful woman.

It's just that when this Xiao Nu Chang saw Li Su in the middle of the tiger shark, he was a little surprised, and he only felt that the other party was a little familiar, but he couldn't think of where he had seen it for a while. It's just that at this time, he is not allowed to think about it, and after looking around at the people around him, he said to Wang Nuchang: "Confirming the slave status is your business, and this official will naturally not interfere, but His Royal Highness has already issued a strict order to prohibit the Han people from being traded as slaves, if Wang Nu Chang sells this woman surnamed Feng as a slave today, then the official has to report this matter out of his duty, and then he will wait for the top to find out about this matter, whose fault will bear the corresponding responsibility!" ”

Since Li Su intervened in the slave industry, the alien slaves among the slaves have become the mainstream, coupled with the development of industry and commerce, manpower is needed everywhere, and the Han people do not need to sell themselves to live at all, so the proportion of Han people in the buying and selling population is getting smaller and smaller, and finally Li Su simply made a decree to prohibit the sale of Han people! This decree may not be enforced in the Tang Dynasty, but as long as it is under the rule of Li Su, this decree is an iron law, and someone has committed this article before, and as a result, he ended up in a family raid and extermination, and since then, no one dares to defy the law.

Wang Nuchang heard that the other party did not hesitate to tear his face with himself for the sake of a female slave, if he really let him stab this matter, and it turned out that Feng Shuyu was really Han, then this crime is not light, it will be a loss of office, and a small life will not be guaranteed.

However, if Wang Nu Chang relented, then his face would be lost, and he also had his own support, so I saw him sneer and say: "Xiao Nu Chang has such a big breath, do you Lanling Xiao really think that you can suppress our Taiyuan Wang Clan?" ”

Hearing that Wang Nuchang not only reported his home, but also called out the origin of Xiao Nuchang, this made everyone on the lookers scream, and at the same time, they involuntarily took a few steps back, and even some of them were timid, and turned around and left directly, never daring to stay here anymore, for fear of accidentally getting into trouble.

Li Su saw the reaction of the people around him, but he was a little annoyed in his heart, although he didn't know the fat Wang Nu Chang, but he recognized the handsome Xiao Nu Chang, because he was Wen Xin's cousin Xiao Lin, and Xiao Yu's favorite grandson, he only came to his Qi Wangfu in August last year, originally Li Su wanted Xiao Lin to take an easier civilian position, but Xiao Yu explained to him, let Xiao Lin start from the bottom of the official, and temper a little more, so he was arranged to become a nine-rank slave chief.

Wang Nuchang broke his and Xiao Lin's origins, and the reason why the people around him avoided it was mainly because this was no longer a dispute between the two of them, but involved Li Su's inner courtyard, everyone knew that Li Su's princess was from the Lanling Xiao family, and Wang Zihao had returned to the Taiyuan Wang family a few years ago, so as a person, Xijun is also a member of the Taiyuan Wang family, although the sisterhood between Wenxin and Xijun 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 the princess, she has never given birth, and Xijun gave birth to a daughter before her, although the daughter is not as expensive as her son Jingui, but in the eyes of the Wang family, it is a sign of Li Su's pampering and cherishing of the king. In addition, Wen Xin's apparent identity is only the daughter of the Xiao family, and the Lanling Xiao family does not have any capable talents under Li Su, but the Taiyuan Wang family is different, Wang Anke is Li Su's Wang Fu, and his identity is only under Li Su, Wang Zihao is Li Su's right-hand man, helping him take care of a large number of industries, and can be said to be one of Li Su's most trusted people.

In addition, with the development of Li Su outside, he has absorbed many children of the Wang family to become officials in the mansion, so the Taiyuan Wang family occupies a lot of power under Li Su, and the Wang slave chief in front of Li Su is one of them, so he has the confidence to argue with Xiao Lin.
