Although Yang Hao set up a prince, he didn't plan to announce it now, this was just to prevent him from falling into a leaderless situation after something happened to him.

Even if it is turmoil, at least there is a nominal orthodox inheritance of virtue hanging on his son's body.

And he, Yang Hao, is now in the prime of life, if there is no accident in the future, maybe this edict will be sealed forever.

Yang Hao rubbed his eyes tiredly, when the people of Chang'an were celebrating the New Year's Eve, their king slept on the table all night.

The border county seat of Jingzhou.

Lingzhou City, named by Yang Hao himself, has gradually become an important town in the south after so many years of development.

The completion of the track has made it a place for many people to make a living.

Especially those who have newly converted to the clans and tribes, because the agriculture of Qi has not spread to the border area on a large scale for the time being.

For these people, if they want to get a better life maintenance track as a Qi person, the work of carrying materials is a way for them to live a good life.

Minerals and orbits feed almost one-third of Lingzhou City's population.

This makes this small city with a small population look a little more urban than Chang'an.

There are many restaurants and restaurants in the city, and the citizen class has occupied a pivotal weight in Lingzhou.

As the most important place in Lingzhou, the cargo station gathers a large number of laborers every day to sort and ship the things transported from the southern mining area.

Heff is part of this huge workforce.

He was originally a human animal of the Shang tribe, and after the Qi State destroyed the Shang tribe, he regained his freedom.

After several tosses and turns, he came to Lingzhou City when he was in the eighth year of Hongwu.

In the past few years, he has grown from a dazed and ignorant teenager to a strong man.

And with his own efforts, he built a small courtyard for himself in this prosperous Jingzhou city.

Although the house is only the simplest mud house, it is something to be proud of for him.

Half a year ago, Lingzhou implemented the policy of the Great Qi Imperial Court to compile households and unify the people, and the name was required for household registration, but he was a slave without a name.

Thinking of a name is a bigger headache for him than work.

But fortunately, the officials of Qi were quite kind, and when the officials saw that he was black and strong, they casually named him a black man.

The first time he had the name, Hefu was ecstatic, and he fell to the ground excitedly trying to kiss the officer's boots.

It's just that his actions frightened the officials of the Qi State.

Now recalling the scared look of the other party at that time, Heifu finds it funny.

Later, he understood why his actions had frightened the officials so much, and it was said that it was a policy made by the bigwigs in Chang'an City.

If someone from the Jinyi Guard or the Metropolitan Procuratorate saw the scene at that time, I am afraid that the official would have been arrested and brought to justice.

This incident touched Heifu a lot, and from that day on, he really regarded himself as a Qi person.

The Qi court did not enforce that everyone must tie their hair to the right side, but since this incident, Heifu has learned from those Qi people to tie their hair.

and tied his tattered clothes to the right side.

Now that it is the New Year of the tenth year of Hongwu, this morning, the officials of the freight yard have given everyone a few pennies a few extra cents, and they have eaten only those dishes that exist only in rumors at noon.

Heifu thought that the gods were watching over him, and when he got off work in the evening, he suddenly saw a group of people watching something in front of the official house.

Curious, Hefu also squeezed over there,

"Excuse me, what are you looking at?"

"Haven't you heard? A few days ago, there was a person in Lingzhou City, who was said to have invented a thing and was directly recommended to the imperial court as an official. ”

Heifu scratched his head and said, "Those who can be officials must be knowledgeable people!" ”

But the other sighed and said: "Qi is strange here, I heard that that person is an ordinary person, and he is said to be a bare-ass savage in the mountains before he became a Qi person." ”

Heifu was taken aback, and said in disbelief: "A savage can also be an official?" ”

"Don't believe this, you see that the government has issued notices, the Jiupin official of the Ministry of Industry, do you know what it means to enter the Ministry of Industry? That's in Chang'an City, this person doesn't have to worry about it in his life. ”

Heifu looked up and looked forward, and on the wall in front of the black head, there was indeed a white piece of paper full of words, but he couldn't read a single big word, and he couldn't read what was written on it.

After looking at it enviously, he shook his head and left here and walked in the direction of his small home.

Although he envied that wild man, he knew that he had a few catties and a few taels, and he could live the life of a wife and children, and he would be content in this life.

But not long after he got home, he was found by the Lizheng in his area.

"Mu Lizheng, what's the matter with you looking for me so late!"

Heifu scratched his head.

Mu Lizheng smiled and said, "Good thing! ”

Heifu was even more puzzled, and invited Muli into the small courtyard.

"Murizheng, what good can I do!"

"Alas! In our past few years, I have seen your performance, recently there are some new cities to be built in the south, and the imperial court is worried that those Miao people will make trouble, so they are ready to recruit some militia nearby to defend the newly built city.

I think you're the most suitable among us, this is a good opportunity to get ahead, and if you perform well, maybe you can get a background in the future, don't waste your good body. ”

Heifu hesitated and said, "Murizheng, I don't want to fight!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Mu Lizheng's face suddenly turned blank and said: "What you said is, why don't you want to fight, if you don't fight, I can have a good life today."

If you are so unproductive, you still want to take my daughter, and die of this heart as soon as possible.

”

Heifu's face turned pale when he heard this, and he looked nervously at the angry Mu Lizheng.

"Look at the fart, I'm not old and confused, I'll make it clear to you today, if you don't have a background, get out of here as soon as possible! You don't take such a good opportunity, and your daughter won't have a good life if she marries you. ”

Hefu looked down at the ground, as if to see through the ground beneath his feet.

Seeing this, Muli suddenly became angry, snorted coldly, and was about to leave with his sleeves up.

But Hefu said, "I'm going to be a soldier!" ”

Mu Li stopped and said coldly: "Well, behave well, those Miao people are just barbarians, it is your chance to make meritorious contributions, if you die in battle, I will personally choose a grave for you." ”

Although this sound extremely awkward, Heifu thanked him gratefully.

Looking at the back of Muli as he was leaving, Heifu sighed lightly.
