Chapter 692: Human Trafficking
"Settle accounts, settle accounts?"
Li Hao's words, but he was stunned, and the contradictions between him and Li Hao so far have put him under house arrest in Linhai City for half a month.
Although this matter is extravagant and rude, it hasn't reached the level of settling accounts, right? Could it be that Li Hao wants to apologize to him himself? A dignified king of Zhen'an, he made such a big move, just to apologize to him for himself? That's too much fuss!
Li Hao looked at him with a blank expression, knowing that he wanted to be crooked.
But this is not to blame, after all, for today's scene, Li Hao has been planning carefully for more than half a month!
Li Hao coughed lightly, straightened his momentum, and then bowed respectfully to Kepler the Great.
"Emperor, I, Li Hao, on behalf of all the people of the Li Kingdom today, sue the master of Linhai City, the master of the city, for trafficking in human beings, and killing countless families, and the crimes are too numerous to mention, please give me an explanation for the Li Kingdom!"
"Human trafficking!" Kepler the Great looked at Li Hao suspiciously, with a hint of disdain in his eyebrows.
In this era, the slave trade is a common thing, and Li Hao, as the king of a country, will have many palace maids around him on weekdays, and most of these people are also bought back with money.
Why did he use the word human trafficking to stir up trouble in the Japanese Empire?
Li Hao had long guessed that he would have such a reaction.
Since the founding of the Li Kingdom, it has only been two years, and the policies implemented in the country are almost contrary to this era. Many regulations could not be accepted even by the brother ally Tang Dynasty, let alone spread to the Rongri Empire, which was thousands of miles away, and Kepler the Great did not blame him for not knowing.
So Li Hao patiently explained to him: "The emperor is not in a hurry, King Rong Ben said slowly." I know that the population of the Emperor's country can be bought and sold freely, and those who are bought and sold are called slaves. But in my Li Kingdom, there is no such thing as a slave. Man is the primate of all things, born with the creation of heaven and earth, and I have no more eyes than my servants, and they do not have one less hand than me, so why can they be bought and sold as goods? ”
In just one sentence, Kepler the Great frowned at what he said.
Li Hao's thoughts can be said to be against the times, the supremacy of royal power in the feudal era, if everyone has such a thought, how can the king rule the country?
Li Hao smiled slightly: "The Great Emperor is sorry, this king is just expounding on the Li Kingdom."

The policy of governing the country did not mean to belittle the Rongri Empire. Alright, let's get back to the topic! In my Li kingdom, there are no slaves, and there is no distinction between people. Even if they were servants and maids, they signed a contract with me, not a deed of sale, but a labor contract. After the contract expires, it is up to them to leave or stay at their own volition, and even if it is the king, he has no right to interfere. ”
"King Zhen'an, what do you want to say?" Kepler's brow furrowed deeper and deeper.
You also said that you are not belittling the Rongri Empire, you are saying that your Li Kingdom is so enlightened, isn't it just to show that the Rongri Empire is backward and ignorant?
Li Hao shrugged his shoulders, he had to make things clear today, so as not to offend the king. But it doesn't matter, anyway, there will be a war between the two countries in the future, and offending now and offending in the future are the same.
"The reason why this king wants to say this is just to make a point of view, in the Li Kingdom, buying and selling human beings is a violation of ethics, and anyone who dares to buy and sell human beings in the Li Kingdom will not be spared!"
Kepler the Great sneered: "I see, the prince is really a good monarch who is diligent and loves the people, and the emperor admires it, but what does this have to do with extravagant bones?" ”
"That's a big deal!" Li Hao snorted coldly, "I don't know if the Great Emperor knows, your Rongri Empire has a human trafficking chamber of commerce named La Rocque!" ”
Kepler the Great was stunned for a moment, and glanced back at the extravagant bones.
Lu Legu nodded gloomily, and at the same time looked at Li Hao.
What the hell does this guy want to do? The slave trade in La Roque has been in the Rongri Empire for decades, and even if Li Hao is dissatisfied, he is not qualified to take care of the affairs of the Rongri Empire. Besides, what does La Roque have to do with himself?
Li Hao smiled: "That's right, Wan'er!" ”
When Wan'er heard this, she immediately took out an account book from her sleeve and handed it to Kepler the Great, this account book was made by Wan'er overnight in the past few days, and she also translated it in the language of the Rongri Empire very intimately.
Kepler the Great opened the ledger and took a closer look, only to see that it was full of names and time.
I was a little confused for a while: "King Zhen'an, what does this mean?" ”
"It means that these people are all the people who have been abducted and sold from my Li Kingdom by La Roque over the years!"
"Impossible!" This time it was Yu Le Gu who couldn't help it, he quickly stepped forward and shouted: "Lord Zhen'an, please don't be a fool, although I don't know what kind of grudge Laroque has with the prince, let you."

So slandered against it. But the Li Kingdom is thousands of miles away from me, why did La Roque go to the Li Kingdom to kidnap people and sell them? ”
Kepler the Great nodded meaningfully, staring at Li Hao with blazing eyes.
Li Hao smiled slightly: "Really? In the first year of the Li Kingdom, on the eighth day of the first month, Li Qingshan and his family went to the Rongri Empire to sell salt, and they never returned. In March of the following year, Li Qingshan's wife fled back to the Li kingdom and asked the king for help. It is said that their family was abducted by La Rocque, and Li Qingshan died tragically in the Rongri Empire. ”
"In the second year of the Li family, on the eighth day of the third month, Dang Xiang Tart Balan was abducted, and there was no trace, according to reliable information, there was close contact with the merchants of the Rongri Empire before his disappearance."
"In the autumn of the second year of the Li family, Tuyuhun Kelejia was captured by a strongman, and his whereabouts are still unknown.
Li Hao read like a treasure: "What, do you still need me to continue reading?" Lord Salero! ”
As soon as the words were finished, a bearded man who looked like a bejeweled merchant suddenly rushed out of the crowd of the Rongri Empire.
"Li Hao, the king of Zhen'an, don't talk nonsense, I am the big boss of the La Roque organization! Although I trade slaves for a living, I have never been to the kingdom of the Lee family! ”
This person is the Salle Soro in Li Hao's mouth, and his face is full of horror at this moment, and it is obvious that Li Hao has said that he has a sore spot.
Li Hao sneered in his heart.
With this psychological quality, you still be a big boss? It's ridiculous.
I don't want to think about it, if Li Hao doesn't have conclusive evidence in his hands, how dare he make such a big move here?
"Yilong, how long do you have to hide, it's time to show up!" Li Hao shouted.
In the crowd, an old man dressed in black with a rickety waist and a little girl in a rag linen dress walked out together.
However, after walking a dozen steps, the old man's back straightened, and the woman also removed the coarse linen clothes on her body, revealing a beast skin suit, which was Yilong and Dai Qisi.
They walked quickly in front of Li Hao and bowed respectfully to him.
Li Hao saw that Yilong had gauze wrapped around his shoulder, and it was obvious that he was injured. He couldn't bear it in his heart, and said with a wry smile: "It's hard! ”
Yilong gently hooked the corners of his mouth: "Enlai is really powerful, but it's just a skin injury, not enough to worry about!" ”
Li Hao nodded at Dai Qisi again, and then said loudly: "Yilong, give the account book you got from that slave trader to the emperor to take a good look!" ”
