Lord Xue Chong Xue is also busy, very busy.

But it's rare that the nine girls are finally willing to see it, where can they wait until the next day?

Almost as soon as Qin Yu sent someone to deliver the message, he left, and entered the place where Pei Heng is now temporarily living with the messenger.

"Xia Guan has seen the princess, I am really afraid that you will not be free tomorrow, and you will come here today." In the hall, Xue Chong clenched his fists.

"Sit down, sir, it's good to come. Actually, I should go, and I don't have any official position. It's just that I hurt my foot, and it's really inconvenient to walk. I'm sorry for you. Ning Zhi smiled.

She didn't say anything, she was helped in by Bai Zhi and Forsythia.

"It was the lower officials who disturbed you to recuperate. Is the princess better? Xue Chong hurriedly said.

"It's much better, you don't have to go down one by one, how about we just talk about ordinary small talk? Don't call it a princess, it sounds really unaccustomed. Ning Zhi smiled and beckoned, asking someone to pour tea.

Xue Chong is also anxious and straight, so naturally there is nothing that should not be: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." Girl. ”

"I came here today for one thing, and I want to ask the girl what she means. It is also the meaning of asking His Highness. Xue Chong said bluntly: "At that time, in Xihua City, a lot of slaves were killed. Nowadays, there are many such people inside and outside the city. His Royal Highness did not order the killing, but now that he has counted carefully, there are more than 3,000 people, how should this group of people be handled? ”

"It's too chaotic this time, I don't even care, what happened to the Ta people in Peicheng?" Ning Zhi asked.

"Oh, part of it. Some of the rest of the war were killed, and most of them were eventually beheaded. It's just the offspring of the Ta people and the slaves...... But it hasn't been disposed of yet. Now he has been locked up in a residential house in the east of the city, but it is not a long-term solution. ”

Ning Zhi groaned: "To be honest, when Xihua City killed these people back then. I didn't frown. But after another year, you told me to kill these people directly, but I couldn't say anything. What does Lord Xue mean? "Since he's talked, he finally has an idea, right?

"This ......" Lord Xue hesitated: "I want to say, even if Peicheng kills him...... Every time we conquer a city, there are more and more of them. The further north you go, the longer you lose them, the more such people there are, do you kill them all...... It's too ...... like this," Xue Chong sighed: "The Ta people don't share the sky with us, but ...... In fact, few of these people were born voluntarily. ”

"What's more, Peicheng is already so barren and pitiful with a small population, what about the rest of the cities in the north? After driving out the Ta people, will there be less? "Lord Xue is actually very hesitant himself, what should I do about this matter, is it right?

"yes, it's all human life. It's too cruel to kill, keep ...... The people who keep the Great Jin will not accept them. Ning Zhi sighed: "This hatred has been a hatred for decades. They have the blood of the Ta people, how can the people of Dajin accept it? If not, what will happen in the future? If they don't accept it, if they want to live, they will reproduce. It doesn't take a few generations, but two generations, and their number has multiplied several times. At that time, in the face of injustice, were they convinced? ”

"If you are not convinced, you will make trouble. As you say, when the whole north is recovered, how many such people will there be? When the time comes, will they unite to make trouble? That's another disaster. Ning Zhi shook his head.

"yes...... The minister also thought about concentrating them in a sparsely populated place, but when he thought about it, after a few generations, they might have become a huge place. It's another tower curse. Xue Chong also shook his head.

"That's a real problem." Ning Zhi sighed: "If you kill these more than 3,000, in the future, you will kill 30,000, 50,000...... After all, we are not Ta people, and we can't do such a thing. ”

"It's not the minister's, it's a problem for the girl." Xue Chong said hurriedly.

"This problem is not mine, it is ours. It has to be solved. Ning Zhi smiled: "Lord Xue, tell me your opinion, no matter what, let's think about it, maybe there will be a good way." ”

"Thank you, girl. I don't go around in circles, I think, let it go! Send them back to the Tatars! Xue Chong said.

Ning Zhi frowned slightly: "But has Lord Xue thought about it, the Ta people are already small, and sending them back doesn't help increase their numbers?" ”

"Although the Ta people are small, they have always looked down on these slaves and their descendants. Since he looks down on it, he is still inferior to send it back. They still can't do anything. To put it cruelly, if one day, this group of people is sent into battle...... How much are they capable of? Dying on the battlefield is God's will. Xue Chong said.

Ning Zhi was silent for a moment and then asked, "Among the more than 3,000 people, are there more men or women?" ”

"Uh...... Half of each, it seems to be a little more male. Xue Chong was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what Ning Zhi meant.

"I think...... It's better to stay. I have an idea, you listen to it first, and then you have to discuss it with His Highness and the generals later. Ning Zhi muttered: "After all these years of war, to be honest, every town has lost its population. There are no wives in the army, and how many women in the area have lost their husbands. I thought, is this kind of person able to fill in? ”

"Girl, this ......"

Ning Zhi interrupted what Xue Chong was about to say: "Don't worry. There are also rules for staying. For example, if a man enters a widow's house, he is not allowed to have offspring, or he may be allowed to follow the woman's surname after giving birth. After the woman marries the Dajin people, it is simpler. With the husband's family, it is. In this way, their next generation will gradually integrate into the people of the Great Jin. The people who fight the war have few thoughts, to be honest, they don't dislike the slaves who have encountered many hardships, and they don't dislike the second generation of slaves. ”

"As for the widows in the area, either the in-laws are old and the men are dead. Or also pull one or two children. It's a tough day. We now have no shortage of land to plant, and adding one is equivalent to giving them ready-made labor. I think they're willing to do it too, right? Since they are willing, these people can blend in. To be honest, in many villages, there are few middle-aged laborers in one village. ”

"This ...... This minister didn't think about it. Listening to what the girl said, it seems that she can accept it, but I'm afraid that other people won't listen to it! Xue Chong hesitated.

In the future, they will be looked down upon and bullied. Identity. To put it bluntly, what about the children born to the slaves in Shengjing City now? Not a slave yet? How many are valued by the family? Fortunately, after marrying the Great Jin people, he is no longer a slave. ”
