Chapter 465 Wu Village
Previously, in the biggest battle between Wu State and Wei State, Wei State captured many strong soldiers of Wu State. As captives, those willing to serve Wei State will continue to be reused, and those who do not want to submit to Wei State will be killed on the spot. After death, all the women in the family were arrested and taken to the state of Wei, where they were slaves and handmaids all their lives.

Today at the court, Wei Rong proposed to donate some slaves to the Kingdom of Shu, one is to send a favor to go with the flow, and the other is that the number of slaves is large, which is also a burden for the Kingdom of Wei.

Wei Rong entrusted this matter to him, and asked him to personally select more than 100 refugee slaves of the best quality and send them to the Shu Kingdom. In order to protect the people of the Wu Kingdom, Zhaojun had a dispute with Wei Rong in the court.

Unexpectedly, there was such a huge secret in it, and Wei Ying was shocked when she learned about it.

Zhaojun will not leave the royal city with her tomorrow, he will not leave until the people of Wu Kingdom are safe and sound, he even plans to go to the court tomorrow, argue with Wei Rong for the final struggle.

He has fallen to this point, and he still does his best to protect his people.

"More than 100 slaves?" Wei Ying said thoughtfully, "Don't worry, I will do my best to stop this matter."

Today she just had an argument with Wei Rong, she knew that Wei Rong was insane, and she would not take it lightly.Never change your mind easily.To prevent this, other means must be used.

Wei Rong specially designated an area in the royal city and named it "Wu Village". Wu Village was for those prisoners of war or their relatives to live in. The more than 100 refugees were probably placed in "Wu Village". .

Wei Ying's fastest way is to wait for a month of dark and windy nights to release all those people, so that no one will be sent to Shu as slaves, but this matter is imminent, unless tonight just act.

As soon as it got dark, Wei Ying called a few guards and quietly ran to "Wu Village".

Wu Village is twenty miles away from the center of the royal city. Due to its remoteness, Wei Ying only heard about it before and never came here.When they arrived at Wu Village, Wei Ying got out of the carriage.

Brick walls several meters high were built around Wu village, and there was a door to enter and exit. There were more than ten guards from the state of Wei standing at the door, just like a huge prison.

Wei Ying stood at the door and looked at it for a while, and found that all the people of Wu village who came in and out had to show a waist card to the guard at the door, and the guard had to read it before letting them go.

Unexpectedly, there are so many famous halls in the small Wu Village.

"You wait here for me first."

Wei Ying told the guards that she brought her that she quietly walked around the wall, found a lower wall in the dark, and climbed over it with light kung fu.

What Wei Ying saw was densely packed rows of low houses inside the walls, and the houses were connected by several small paths. For some reason, she always felt very depressed when she saw those houses. Except for the door, it turned out that there were There were patrolling guards, and Wei Ying was not found by hiding in the dark.

It turned out that this was Wu Village.Where are those slaves?Wei Ying secretly wondered, she is like a headless chicken now.

Seeing an old woman come out of the house to pour water, Wei Ying quickly went up quietly and pulled her aside.

"Mother-in-law." Wei Ying pulled her under the tree and said in a low voice, "I'm here to find someone. Do you know where the more than 100 people selected by the court today who will be sent to the Kingdom of Shu live?"

The mother-in-law narrowed her eyes and looked her up and down: "You are not from Wu Village, right? How did you get in?"

Wei Ying was slightly taken aback: "How does mother-in-law know that I'm not from Wu Village?"

"You don't have this on your hand." The mother-in-law raised her hand, and there was a number imprinted on the back of her right hand.

"One three eight eight?" Wei Ying read out softly, and said, "What is this?"

"Number." The mother-in-law said, "I am the 380th in Wu Village."

"The first thousand, 380 and eight?!" Wei Ying was shocked. She didn't expect that this small Wu Village, which seemed to be less than one square kilometer, actually lived so many people. "Are there more than 1000 people here?!"

"No." The mother-in-law said, "Most of them were assigned as slaves to the families of princes and aristocrats to do the dirtiest and most tiring work, and the beautiful women were taken as concubines. Currently, there are about 500 people who stay here. People. We live here and are on call at any time. Whenever we need someone to do work, we will be transferred from here. Some will come back after finishing the work. The things in our hands are our marks."

Wei Ying felt a little surprised, things didn't seem to be what she had imagined.

"Then do you know that more than 100 people have been selected today and will be sent to the Kingdom of Shu?"

"I'm not sure about that." The granny shook her head and left.

Wei Ying gradually understood Zhaojun's hatred for her.

Maybe those people have been selected and transferred to other places, but even if they still stay in Wu Village and let them go, there are still hundreds of people who can be used as substitutes, unless she can let go of all the people in Wu Village, but those people It has already been imprinted, no matter where it goes in this life, it will still be found...

Wei Ying's heart was a little heavy, she walked out unknowingly, and heard the patrolling soldier shout: "Who is it?!" She came back to her senses.

She directly took out the token and raised it.

Seeing the token in her hand, the patrolling soldiers quickly knelt down: "Your Highness Princess!"

It was late at night when Wei Ying returned to the Princess Mansion. In the dazed candlelight, the old man lay on the couch with his eyes closed, wondering if he had fallen asleep.She reached out and stroked his blue hair, and then put her hands on his face.

I don't know if he knows the existence of "Wu Village".Now that I know, I will hate her even more. Now, what can she do for him?

What Murong Yun said to her suddenly flashed in her mind: "An eagle whose wings have been cut off by you, do you still expect it to fly obediently by your side?"

"Yanzhao," she said, "I'm sorry. I ruined everything about you, everything about us. I regard success as a game, but this world is not between you and me after all. I want to overthrow the country of Wu. At the beginning, it was hatred and a mission, but in the end, it became an obsession. I can only blame me for being the kind of person who goes all the way to the black, even if there are better things along the way. I can't change my goal even if I find a better way... You hate me, and you will carry this hatred for the rest of your life. You love me, and if you don't have love, you won't Do you hate me so much?"

Wei Ying sighed, stood up, pulled up the lampshade, added some fragrance powder to the lamp oil, turned and left.

These powders are enough for him to sleep until noon tomorrow.I just hope she can help him deal with all those things before he wakes up...
