All the people were trembling with fear, and they didn't dare to say more.

The man looked around at everyone with vicious eyes, he was so angry that he could only vent his anger on the girl.

The nobles in the Central Plains love the tenderness and coquettishness of the willows supported by the wind, and they pay attention to the slender waist like orchids and emerald greens, just like the posture of a dragon swimming.

Therefore, the men have been strictly controlling the diet of these slaves, and they often eat three meals for one meal. Those rules are all made out of starvation, so that they can be raised to be quiet and well-behaved before they are sold out.

After all, these beauties are all of the highest quality, and it would be a waste of money to sell them to brothels and restaurants. Some of them will be picked up by some nobles in Chang'an City, so they should not be more refined.

The man was already very angry, his eyes widened, and he stepped on the girl's ribs.

"Bitch! Look at your waist. You've gained so much weight, and you've eaten so much. You're sincerely trying to get along with me, right? Eat, eat, eat, eat to death! You think you're a livestock, and you can be sold by the catty!"

"Greedy for cheap things! Do you know that if you eat an extra bite of cake, I will sell it for less money, even if I sell it to you, those customers will know that you are worthless at a glance!"

The man measured the girl's waist fiercely with his feet, and became more and more annoyed. The flesh on his body rolled along with his movements, kicking the girl's shoulder harder and harder.

"Irregular things, unclean hands and feet, you will be beaten to death if you go to the master's house! Instead of waiting for the master's family to ask me to blame me, it's better to beat you to death now!"

"Bitch! Bitch! . . . "

The man's face was full of disgust, and he punched and kicked a girl who was helpless without any scruples. The tyranny made the people around couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

The girl's pretty cheek was trampled in the sewage, but her mouth was forced to open wide, but she couldn't make a whimper, her expression was hollow and desperate.

Wei Yunzhu took a step back in fright at the man's horrific behavior, and subconsciously clenched Pei Ji's sleeves.

She trembled slightly and looked up at him.

Pei Ji's expression was calm: "Princess, others are disciplining their slaves, so it's not easy for us to intervene."

He saw the uneasiness and panic in her eyes, and moved forward calmly, blocking the eyes of some passers-by for her, and then slowly took hers with one hand.

"This man is a good son of the Gu family!"

"He is Gu Taifu's younger brother, Gu Yanyi's fourth uncle - Gu Huaimao."

When these words reached Wei Yunzhu's ears, she only felt her head buzzing, and something in her eyes was broken. For a moment, she thought it was a storm that was about to hit, otherwise why would the sun be dark all of a sudden?
It turned out that it was her own blood rushing to her heart, and her eyes turned black!

"See the seal tattoos on the shoulders of those slaves? Konggu Youlan, that's the family crest of the Gu family in Lanling."

The memory flashed into my mind in an instant, yes, that is the family crest of the Gu family in Lanling, mysterious and elegant, extraordinary and refined, the unswerving orchid is regarded as the "gentleman" in the valley.

What should be the most virtuous thing is branded on the shoulders of these women, as a symbol of slavery, and a sinful transaction is carried out.

It's really... extremely rampant!
Is this still the ruling land of the Great Zhou?
The world was spinning, and she was even a little unsteady, but she was supported by Pei Ji so that she would not lose her center of gravity.

There was a thought firmly rooted in her mind, she didn't dare to think about it, but tortured her wantonly.

Does Gu Yanyi know this?

In Chang'an City, everyone knows that Gu Yanyi has always had the reputation of being high-spirited and virtuous.

Everyone praised him as a bamboo branch in the snow of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a noble gentleman with benevolence and righteousness, but does he know the filth and filth in his family?Can you see this inhumanity, hear this dirty curse?

If he sees it, is it evil, or is he turning a blind eye, or is he helping the evildoer?

Wei Yunzhu didn't dare to think about it, the impact on her was too great.

"Princess, do you know why the Gu family branded the slaves?"

Pei Ji's voice woke her up, and violent rocks had already fallen.

"Konggu Youlan represents the Gu family. As long as they are branded, they also represent the Gu family. These women will be continuously transported to the person who controls Da Zhou's pulse, squeezed into Da Zhou's bone marrow, and penetrated into the blood."

"In Chang'an City, there are many officials who claim to be clean and upright, but they keep such an orchid in captivity in their homes. The branding is to remind those officials and wealthy families all the time what kind of dirty business they have with the Gu family. It's as clear as water? Fake Can't be fake anymore!"

Wei Yunzhu was half lying in Pei Ji's arms, her hands and feet were weak, trembling uncontrollably, unable to digest these facts.

Pei Ji hugged the girl who had no worries about food and clothing since childhood, and the two of them were intimate. He knew that the delicate flowers in the greenhouse were far from able to bear these words, but he still said them all cruelly.

"The princess is in the deep palace every day, and the food and clothing are the best. Naturally, I don't need copper coins."

As Pei Ji said, he took out a copper coin from his sleeve and put it in the girl's palm. Indeed, Wei Yunzhu had no idea about money and silver since she was a child. She even rarely saw this copper coin.

"Do you know how this copper coin was forged? The proportion of copper and lead was forged. The Gu family controlled the household department all the year round, and privately increased the proportion of copper in the copper coin to [-]%. They bought two thousand copper coins with one tael of silver. The cost is to collect a large amount of copper coins, melt them and refine them, and make copper wares to sell, and once they change hands, they will make a huge profit of more than ten times."

"One tael of silver can be exchanged for two thousand copper coins, which is the official price set by the imperial court, but in today's market, one tael of silver can only be exchanged for eight hundred copper coins. , It just made the Gu family's trouser pocket fatter, and those greedy dogs under the Gu family have suffered a lot for the common people!"

"The matter of making money is related to the state system and the grievances of the people. It is shocking to be able to take the risk of beheading the money and make a profit from it. Even a humble minister is willing to bow down."

"The princess thinks that the Gu family's courage is only this big?"

It is far from enough, slave trade, bribery of officials, cholera to make money, the Gu family has been farming in the Northland for many years, so it is naturally deep-rooted and their ambitions are growing wildly.

Wei Yunzhu understands that the Northern Territory has a deep connection with the Western Regions since ancient times, and the emperors of all dynasties have strictly controlled it, lest the local power be controlled by the rich, and the Gu family's rampant behavior will not be tolerated.

But...they actually pretended to have a clear conscience in Chang'an, it's really good that they have no distractions!
She looked at the vicious man, Gu Huaimao, he was a certainty of the Gu family, and what he did naturally followed the Gu family's wishes, and took advantage of the Gu family's influence, so he acted so unscrupulously!
Pei Ji looked at Gu Huaimao mockingly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, but his black eyes were steady without any waves.

"The Gu family's courage is far more than that."
