Chapter Fifty-Eight: Red Slaves
The people who can take out the high-level Qiankun Stone casually, except for those sons and brothers of big families, are martial artists who have cultivated to reach the Soul Refining Realm!
No matter which one it is, Xiao Er doesn't dare to offend, and seeing that Xu Duan is so young, it is obvious that he belongs to the former. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hehe, do you know what I'm going to do?" Xu Duan sneered.
When Xiao Er heard Xu Duan's words, his face changed greatly, and he quickly knelt down and said, "Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives!" I shouldn't have speculated about the adults just now, the little ones should be damned, the little ones should be damned! ”
Xiao Er twitched his face and begged for mercy.
"Get up." Xu Duan said lightly.
Xiao Er stood up stupidly, his face became red and swollen, obviously he really fanned himself.
"I want the best room, stay here for about a year, you can arrange it as soon as possible, this Qiankun stone, just put it here." After Xu Duan finished speaking, he stopped speaking.
The woman behind the counter hurriedly arranged a room for Xu Duan, and Xiao Er was also busy.
It didn't take long for Xiao Er to come to Xu Duan's side again and said respectfully, "My lord, please come with me." ”
Subsequently, Xiao Er took Xu Duan and the three of them to the fifth floor.
Tianxiang Building has a total of five floors, and there are only twenty private rooms on the fifth floor, among which there is one of the most luxurious.
Of course, this most luxurious will only be used when the owner of Tianxianglou comes, and this time Xiao Er took Xu Duan to this most luxurious private room.
When he came to the private room, Xu Duan saw the gold and silk in the private room, and the golden and brilliant appearance also dazzled him for a while, if this was not the palace, he would not believe it.
"Okay, you go back first, I'll call you if there's something." Xu Duan said lightly.
"My lord, the little one is retired, if there is anything wrong with the adult, just press the bell."
After Xiao Er finished speaking, he left the private room and walked quickly downstairs, his face full of solemnity.
"Brother Chu, two beds, one for each person." Xu Duan said with a smile.
Goo-dong.
Chu Wenjun couldn't help but swallow his saliva, such a luxurious place, that was something he couldn't think of.
"Brother Duan's identity is really unusual." Chu Wenjun sighed.
"Hey, I just made a little money."
Chu Wenjun looked at Xu Duanman's indifferent appearance, and he couldn't wait to slap him twice, this is called making a little money?
If you make a fortune, you can't live in the palace?
"Zhu Lu, come here, I'll ask you something." Xu Duan poured a glass of water and said lightly.
Zhu Lu heard Xu Duan's call and came to Xu Duan's side tremblingly.
Chu Wenjun also came over, and he could naturally guess what Xu Duan wanted to ask.
"Let's talk about it, why did Xiao Er have such an attitude towards you just now? Just because you're not dressed well, I don't think it's that simple. Xu Duan took a sip of water and looked at Zhu Lu indifferently.
Knock knock!
Zhu Lu knelt down and kowtowed three times directly.
"My lord, I hope you can save us!"
……
Three months ago, the city had not yet been breached, and at that time, the people of the Red Sun Empire in the imperial capital had some discord with the people of the Mighty Empire.
Because of the war between the two countries, there was naturally some estrangement between the people in the two countries.
The good news made those nobles of the empire and the ministers of the imperial court see huge benefits.
The people of the Red Sun Empire in the hegemonic empire were all suppressed, all their property was confiscated, and they were directly reduced to slaves!
The people of the Red Sun Empire are all called Red Slaves!
The same is true of the people of the Red Sun Empire throughout the empire.
After all, the two countries have been in contact for a long time, so there are not a few people on the other side in the two countries.
Several great victories in the hegemony of the empire made the nobles and officials of the empire stretch out their clutches.
Qin Hui wrote to the emperor at the first time, demoting the people of the Red Sun Empire to slaves, confiscating all their property, and restoring their identities when the Red Sun Empire was truly broken.
Qin Hui's idea is very simple, converge property! Of course, it is also for himself, after all, Qin Hui is the biggest corrupt official.
Let them have no effect on the stability of the empire in order to maintain the stability of the empire.
At that time, the emperor, that is, Hong Xiaolong's father, Hong Ping, didn't think much about it, and thought that the front line was tight, so in order not to distract the front line, the emperor also agreed.
In the past three months, the entire empire has changed color, and all the people of the Red Sun Empire have been arrested and branded with a red dot on their necks, known as Red Slaves.
Originally, those nobles had slaves in their families, but the red slaves were the slaves of the slaves!
Zhu Lu's immature face was full of anger, the strong young man did not shed tears, and when he saw that Xu Duan's identity was not ordinary, he also let it go and told Xu Duan everything in one go.
Bang!
"It's ridiculous!" Xu Duan let out a loud shout and slammed the table.
After getting off Zhu Lu and Chu Wenjun, they saw that the finely carved table with good wood was directly smashed by Xu Duan.
"Zhu Lu, where do you live now?" Xu Duan asked coldly.
"I live in the firewood house under Li Shangshu's mansion, where there are twenty people as big as me." Zhu Lu said worriedly.
"What about your parents?" Xu Duan frowned.
"Our parents have been divided into the hands of other adults and nobles! Like us, we are all leading people in the imperial capital to earn money, and if we can't earn ten taels of silver, we will be beaten. ”
Zhu Lu said, and his immature hands also shook involuntarily.
Xu Duan looked at Zhu Lu, whose face was full of hatred, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he was already burdened with hatred at a young age.
"I'll look at your arm."
Zhu Lu stretched out his arm and rolled up his sleeves, in the process, Zhu Lu gritted his teeth, and on his strong face, there was only a painful expression, but there was no sound.
Xu Duan looked at Zhu Lupi's open arms, his eyes became colder and colder, and the murderous aura became more and more intense.
"Brother Duan." Chu Wenjun was a little out of breath and shouted with difficulty.
Xu Duan retracted the momentum on his body, he looked at Zhu Lu's firm gaze, and couldn't help but feel distressed.
Even Chu Wenjun couldn't stand the breath on his body, but the twelve-year-old Zhu Lu was trembling, gritting his teeth and holding on, without saying a word.
Zhu Lu's performance made Xu Duan appreciate it very much.
"What is your purpose?" Xu Duan said lightly.
"I want to save my parents, I know that the war between the two countries is inevitable and cannot change anything, but I don't want my parents to suffer this humiliation!"
Zhu Lu stood up tremblingly, looking at Xu Duan with a firm look in his eyes.
"Rescue your parents?"
"I ...... I didn't think about it. ”
"Do you hate the Empire?"
"I don't hate."
"Why?"
"Because not all aristocrats and officials treat us like this, when my grandparents brought their parents to the Empire, they were forced to come here because they couldn't stand the oppression of the empire."
"After coming here, I found that the Hegemony Empire is better than the Red Sun Empire, I don't know how many times."
Xu Duan looked at Zhu Lu calmly, and Zhu Lu also looked at Xu Duan seriously.
"This is a bottle of elixir, I think you should be able to cultivate, go back to recuperate first." Xu Duan took out a bottle of pill and handed it to Zhu Lu.
"Your Excellency, please save us! Zhu Lu is willing to be a slave and serve the adults! ”
Zhu Lu did not take the pill, but knelt down again.
Xu Duan's eyes flickered and looked at Zhu Lu, and said, "With me, aren't you still a slave?" ”
"I don't think adults are the kind of people who abuse slaves." Zhu Lu showed an innocent smile and looked at Xu Duan.
Xu Duan looked at Zhu Lu's smile, and he was also distressed, such a young child had suffered so much, which made him unbearable.
"I promise you, but it's not time yet, can you afford to wait?"
"As long as the adults agree, I can afford to wait for a long time!"
Zhu Lu stood up, took the pill given by Xu Duan, turned around and left the private room.
Xu Duan sighed towards Zhu Lu's immature and serious face just now.
"Brother Duan, do you really want to do it? This is the law of the Empire. Chu Wenjun asked.
"What? Brother Chu is scared? Xu Duan asked rhetorically.
"Alas, I'm not afraid! But there's nothing you can do. ”
"I heard that the champion of the big selection can put forward any conditions?" Xu Duan smiled lightly.
"You mean ......"
"That's right, the champion must be mine!"
