"Sister Hong, can we still survive?"
"I heard that those powerful families are cruel and ruthless, and they enjoy torturing others for fun. Some sisters were beaten to death and finally thrown into the dry well."
“Wuwuwu…”
Inside the thatched hut, sobbing sounds were heard one after another.
Through the sunlight, I could vaguely see that they were all pretty girls. Although they were covered in dust and their clothes were tattered, their faces were still good. They were Silla maids, so they must have been carefully selected. After all, if they wanted to sell them for a good price, they couldn't be too bad.
Sister Hong, who was in the lead, was also trembling.
It has been very difficult for them along the way.
Many people died because of the strong wind.
They also know their fate.
But they have no choice...
Because they were all slaves.
It's like livestock, meant to be bought and sold.
There is no difference when you come to Linzi.
The only difference is who you sell it to.
Those who can afford them are all wealthy and powerful gentry.
A large portion of people are perverts.
He just enjoys torturing people.
Thinking about the darkness in the future, Sister Hong's eyes were filled with tears and she couldn't help sobbing.
Crunch.
The wooden door was pushed open.
The sunlight is quite dazzling.
They couldn't help but squint their eyes.
Then I saw an eight-foot-tall young man walking in slowly.
He wears a jade crown and a purple dragon king robe.
He wore a sword and jade at his waist and deerskin boots on his feet.
He is extremely handsome and has a smile on his face.
Ning Que looked at these Silla maids.
According to Cui Genshuo's idea, since he was going to start a war, he might as well take advantage of the situation and use these Silla maids as military prostitutes. After all, the soldiers were all passionate men, and they also had physiological needs.
However, Ning Que flatly refused this.
There are no such things as military prostitutes in Ning Wang’s army.
These Silla maids also had other uses.
Choi Keun-suk stepped forward.
He looked at them, speaking in the Goguryeo language.
"This is Prince Ning of Dafeng."
"A prince who is second only to one man and above all others!"
"Why don't you come and see me soon?"
"We pay our respects to King Ning!"
"No need to be polite." Ning Que smiled and waved his sleeves. "All of you, please stand up. No need to kneel. I want to know, is there anyone among you who can understand Feng Yu?"
"I!"
"So can I."
"I can do that too."
Many people spoke out.
Ning Que immediately looked at Cui Keunsuok.
It seems that this guy didn't fool him.
Silla maids were mainly sold to Dafeng.
To ensure customer satisfaction, merchants would have them learn the Feng language beforehand. Fortunately, Goguryeo culture was heavily influenced by the Daebong, and their language closely resembled the Feng language, even resembling a dialect. Even the Goguryeo script itself was largely a copy of the Feng language, with only minor differences. Furthermore, only the true nobility could learn and use it.
"Tie Niu, remember these people."
"The rest of you don't have to worry. You can study hard later."
"My Lord, what do you want us to do?"
"This king will teach you to be human beings."
"Be...be a human being?"
Ning Que smiled and nodded, his hands behind his back as he spoke, "I think you should know what the slaves of Silla used to do. Some became maids, some became prostitutes, and most became playthings, eventually being tortured to death. Because slaves are not human, they are just like livestock. And this king does not need you to be slaves, he needs you to be human beings!"
They all stared at Ning Que blankly.
Hearing this, I don't understand what it means.
Be a human being!
Just two simple words.
But it’s too unfamiliar!
So strange that they have never heard of it since they were born.
Many of them were born into slavery.
And slaves are not people!
"Why don't you thank the prince quickly?"
"We thank the prince!"
"What does the prince need us to do?"
"As long as the prince says so, we are willing to do anything."
"There's no rush for this matter." Ning Que waved his hand. "I'll have someone specifically question each of you and review your strengths and abilities. You should go to the palace first. I've prepared new clothes for you. This isn't a place for people to live. However, I have something to say first."
"Please give your orders, Your Majesty."
"In my eyes, there is no difference between men and women. Since you are to be human beings, you must use your own hands to create the necessities of life. No matter what you do, even if it is farming and raising pigs, it is fine. From now on, you will be the people of Dafeng, and you no longer need to serve others with your beauty!"
"Your Majesty, I can feed the pigs!"
"Your Highness, I have raised silkworms at home."
"I also know some needlework!"
“…”
"Um."
Ning Que smiled and nodded.
There was no other way. Linzi was desperately short of manpower, especially military doctors. Chang Baicao was so anxious that he was furious. He was also overwhelmed and had to busy himself with preparing medicine for the wounds. As for these Silla maids, they might not know medicine, but as long as they could help with care, they would be like nurses.
Taking them to Goguryeo was actually risky. After all, they were all Goguryeo people, and there was no guarantee they would stab them in the back. But Ning Que was very persistent. In his opinion, these Silla servants had no reason to help Goguryeo.
In Goguryeo, being a slave was equivalent to being an animal.
But in his hands, they are living people!
Be able to create life with your own hands!
"Uncle Fu, I'll leave this to you."
"I will go out and take a look around."
"promise."
"Lao Cui, let's go."
"good."
Choi Keun Suk followed with a smile.
