Chapter 196
After leaving Yu Roosang's identity, Xiao Han did not leave the capital immediately, but stayed for a while. Seeing Zheng suppressing the servants in the mansion discussing, she covered all her traces on the grounds of sudden death, no one mentioned Yu Roosang, the concubine.
Mansha's life has not changed much, and she has not been vented by Zheng's anger. Xiao Han also left many backup plans in the Shangshu Mansion, and secretly took care of her for several days before leaving.
At first, Xiao Han wandered around without a destination and changed into men's clothing that was convenient to walk. He looked like a handsome alien boy, but he was also discriminated against because of his green eyes, and even encountered an inn and shop that deliberately cheated her.
If Xiao Han hadn't taken the initiative and had left quickly, I was afraid that even the government runners who arrived would have blamed her.
The alien race had a low status in the Daxi Dynasty.
Even if he could hide his eyes, Xiao Han lost such interest and came outside the frontier half a month later.
The wind and sand outside the border in May are very strong.
Walking in the market with horses, there are earthen walls that block the wind and sand everywhere.
The farther away from the Central Plains, the fewer strange eyes there were. Xiao Han asked about it. There were many people from different tribes outside the Great Wall. Sure enough, the pedestrians here dressed in strange clothes, which were very different from the clothes in the Central Plains. Many of them were mixed-race Hu and Han.
But he noticed that there was a very lively place. Xiao Han walked over with a little curiosity and saw a huge iron cage on the high platform surrounded by people, with several young slaves locked in it, including men, women, and children.
The owner of the goods was a middle-aged man with a shrewd look and shouted to the people below, "These are all slaves from Xiyu. Everyone knows that the Xiyu country in the past produced beautiful men and beautiful women, and they will never suffer any loss if they buy it."
When Xiao Han heard the "Xiyu" he mentioned, his eyes twitched.
An old man in his fifties and leaning on a cane came out of the crowd and said angrily, "Old Gui, where did you get the person?"
The old man said something to the people in the cage, and his face became even more angry, "They are obviously from the nearby Xiyu tribe, not some scattered slaves."
The mercenary sneered, "I care who they are. Anyway, they are slaves written in black and white in the Protectorate Office. If you want to find them, go and find the people from the Protectorate Office."
"Twist him away and don't block my business." The owner waved his hand, and he didn't want to waste time with the poor old man Xiyu.
Immediately, several burly men pushed and shoved the old man out.
The owner of the goods changed his smile and continued to shout and trade.
After watching the whole process, Xiao Han finally said, "I want it for a lot of money."
The owner looked at her and said, "I wonder how many young gentleman wants this young man?"
Xiao Han glanced at him coldly, "I want it all."
When the owner of the goods was thinking about how to kill a price, Xiao Han took out something and threw it to the owner of the goods. When he saw that it was a bag of piles of gold, he immediately smiled, "It's enough."
For Mansha's sake, it's better to treat it as a kindness.
Xiao Han is still not short of money.
Pay the money with one hand and the other hand, "You are all these slaves."
There were seven people in total, and they were still clean, even with iron chains on their hands and feet. The young men and women subconsciously protected the only child behind them. One of the young men with black hair with a naked upper body was slightly stunned when they saw her eyes.
Just as I was about to leave, my ear tips moved slightly and I heard a sound that was being lowered not far away.
"He has only one person and is not very old."
"That look is much more expensive than the slaves I caught, so I will definitely be able to sell for a good price."
"Although he is a man, he likes those noble people, right?"
Xiao Han curled his lips slightly, but he didn't expect that he was targeted.
A few quarters of an hour later, the group of people who were trying to rob money fell into the wind and sand outside the city. They wanted to find a place with few people, which was exactly what Xiao Han wanted.
And the slaves behind him, Xiao Han untied their chains with a few knives, and finally spoke to them, and they used the language of Xiyu Kingdom.
"You guys go."
During the time she was with Mansha, she learned some and could understand the conversation between them and the old man Xiyu through the cage.
Those people were surprised and a little happy.
"Didn't that person say you are from the nearby Xiyu Tribe?"
Xiao Han said lightly, "You are free now, let's go back."
The young man with slightly curly hair stared at her eyes, "Are you...you are also from Xiyu?"
Xiao Han didn't answer him, so he got on the horse and turned around and headed back to the city. This place was already outside the city and should be very close to their tribe. It was the end of the righteousness when sent to him.
Xiao Han spent three days picking the force to which the slave trader He Laogui belonged. Before they asked the Protectorate's Mansion to post a reward wanted order, he successfully incorporated it into his own force.
The methods are a little more rude, but they are very effective.
During this process, Xiao Han also discovered that the so-called Protectorate has not had a deep control over this side, and it is more like nominal. What really has been entrenched here for a long time is these mixed forces of dragons and snakes, and they often send bribes to the Protectorate, which is easy to pass on the surface.
If Xiao Han wants to live a better life here, he must have his own power. It doesn’t matter which one, but whoever asked the power He Laogui to be the first to send it to her was the first to give it to her, so he could only blame them for being unlucky.
Xiao Han came to a shop, and behind the counter was the old man Xiyu who had an argument with He Laogui that day. He walked over with a cane and sat down tremblingly, "I thanked the young master for those unscrupulous tribe members."
His name is Huoshe, and he has been here for more than 20 years. He can be said to know very well about the situation here.
He looked at Xiao Han's noticeably light green eyes, as if he was recalling the past, "Do you know the West Yu Country?"
Xiao Han also let him say,
The old man sighed, "My Xiyu Kingdom was once extremely rich..."
With pride, we talk about the grand occasions many years ago, which was once a prosperous country that was labeled as Western jade.
But in the end, due to wars and constant internal struggles in the royal family, eventually leading to decline and turmoil.
The old man couldn't help but feel a little desolate in his eyes. Xiao Han took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and asked, "What is this?"
A golden lotus is painted on the paper.
A surprise appeared on the old man's face, "But an elder in your family has this totem."
Xiao Han did not answer,
The old man calmed down and said leisurely, "This is the totem that the direct women of the Xuanji clan from Xiyu Kingdom will be stabbed when they are born, and only the Xuanji clan people are born with these green eyes."
He looked at Xiao Han's eyes deeply, "So that Ridolan recognized you as a Xiyu."
Xiao Han did not look at him, but put away the paper. The green eyes were genetic problems, but including Folian, she figured out Mansha's life experience.
...
Xiao Han finally agreed to go to the nearby Xiyu tribe with the old man Huoshe, but he changed into women's clothing, and only agreed that he had half of Xiyu's bloodline.
Huo She smiled and did not express any surprise, but said, "The West Yu Kingdom is not like the Central Plains. Women are respected and they also have the right to inherit."
As for the mixed-race, Huo She told Xiao Han that there is no need to worry. He even took the Xuan Ji clan as an example and said that although the Xuan Ji clan, who intermarried with the royal family, although the ranking of the Xuan Ji clan in inheriting the throne was relatively inferior, there was no chance.
The Xuanji clan has always intermarried with the royal family. If Xiyu Kingdom is still there, it would not have allowed the noble daughter of the Xuanji clan to live in a foreign land. Huoshe sighed in his heart.
Since the turmoil and decline many years ago, the Xiyu Kingdom has been divided into pieces and partially preserved, and remains in the old land to become a tribe.
Xiao Han knew that the life of the remnants of the country was not easy, but he did not expect that he could get into this situation. Not only was he poor but also was mostly old, weak, women and children, and he lived in a bitter and cold place, which was not considered the old land of Xiyu Kingdom.
After all, the capital of Xiyu's past has turned into ruins in the midst of turmoil.
Xiao Han also met the boy with curly hair who was saved as a slave that day. He was the youngest son of the tribe leader Dolan. He just walked away and played with his friends, but was caught by a slave trader.
It can be said that he was really doing miserable.
As Huoshe said, just looking at her green eyes, the members of the Xiyu tribe accepted Xiao Han, and seemed to have some respect for her because of the Xuanji clan's identity.
Xiao Han stayed in the tribe for a while and lived a comfortable life.
