Traveling Through the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber: The Ming Zun Zhang Wuji

Chapter 365

After hearing Zhang Wuji's words, Pasha shook his head and said, "That's right, the Prime Minister brought me and my sister back. It's just that the Prime Minister said that if the slaves can't serve His Majesty well, then we don't have to stay in Guangmingding and take us home."

Hearing Pasha's words, Zhang Wuji was even more confused.I always feel that this little girl's words are a bit inexplicable.

Since it was Fan Yao who saved them, and if he couldn't take good care of Zhang Wuji, he would send them home.

No matter from which point of view, Fan Yao has no malicious intentions.Just why is this little girl so scared?

Pasha's reaction aroused the interest of Dai Qisi and Zhang Wuji, and they exchanged a glance.

Dai Qisi asked: "What the hell is going on? You seem to be very afraid of going home. Does your family treat you sisters badly? And if you go home, what does it have to do with the life and death of your whole family?"

This is also Zhang Wuji's question.

Zhang Wuji helped the little girl up and said, "Okay, stand up and say something. What's going on here?"

So Pasha told Zhang Wuji about his own background.

Pasha was a Uyghur in the Chagatai Khanate.Her parents were Semu officials of the Chagatai Khanate.

Like the Han landlords and warlords in the Central Plains, the Semu people in Chagatai had to intermarry with the Mongols in order to preserve their family status.

Generally, Mongolian women marry into the families of Semu officials, and then women from Semu families marry into Mongolian families.

Originally, this tradition was a good way to maintain stability without bloodshed.

But Pasha's parents did not want their daughters to marry into Mongolian families.

This is because their future "son-in-law" is the current Khan of the Chagatai Khanate.A dying old man.

But this Mongol Khan has a "hobby" different from the Mongols, and that is burial.He didn't want to carry out a "sky burial" according to the Mongolian custom, but built a very luxurious mausoleum for himself.

He will bring everything he likes to his mausoleum.rather than leaving it to his successors.

The few Persian cats he liked before were all put in the mausoleum after his death.The same goes for the woman he likes.

If they simply married the old man, although they couldn't bear it in their hearts, they could only bear the pain for their own family.

After all, the Mongols have the custom of adopting step marriages, and the two sisters can still marry the next Khan in the future.

And his two daughters were the ones that the old Khan personally took a fancy to, and they were the ones who wanted them by name.

And because of the unique "hobby" of the old Khan.They will definitely be taken to the grave by this old man in the future.

No matter how cruel Pasha's parents were, they would not just ruin their daughter like this.

So under the arrangement of this father, Pasha fled to the east with his younger sister.Although the father was heartbroken, this was the only way to preserve the family and the daughters.

If they stay in the territory of the Chagatai Khanate, they will undoubtedly die in a few years.Although he may die after fleeing, at least he has a chance of surviving.

And their chance of survival is Mingjiao, the number one "rebel" in the world.Because Mingjiao is the only force that the Mongols dare not provoke.

Fan Yao's management in the Western Regions these years not only alarmed the Yuan court, but even the Chagatai Khanate around him became wary of Mingjiao.

But despite vigilance, Mingjiao only invaded a little worthless territory around Guangmingding, and the two sides still maintained the usual "well water does not violate river water".

The Chagatai Khanate did not want to provoke Mingjiao, and Mingjiao did not take the initiative to invade them.

Moreover, Pasha's father also heard that the people living in the teaching territory are very good.That's why they sent people to escort the daughters to the east.

He wanted his daughter to escape to Mingjiao's territory temporarily, and then after the death of the old Khan, he would find a way to find them.

Hearing this, Zhang Wuji asked: "So, if you are sent back, then your father's disobedience to the Mongol king will be revealed, and your whole family will be punished by the Mongol king?"

The little Pasha nodded and said, "That's right. If we were sent home, that's how it would be."

Zhang Wuji nodded silently.He was a little surprised before, why this little girl from Semuren could speak Chinese so fluently.It is not surprising if they are the children of high-ranking officials.

The Chagatai Khanate was nominally a vassal Khanate of the Yuan Dynasty, and Kublai Khan was a Mongolian emperor who advocated Sinicization.Many Mongolian nobles and local high-ranking officials, like Zhao Min, can speak several languages ​​and characters.

This little girl is also from aristocratic family, so she can naturally speak Chinese.

Dai Qisi asked at this time: "Since this is the case, then you said before that the prime minister saved you, what is going on?"

The little Pasha continued to talk about his previous encounters.

Although the two sisters successfully reached the junction of Mingjiao and Chagatai Khanate.But the person sent by their father to escort them could only send them here, and then turned back.

The two sisters came to this land full of unknowns together.

Despite the efforts of Fan Yao and Mingjiao people, the law and order in the Western Regions has become much better.But where there is light, there is shadow, even if the shadow is small.

They were two little girls, and Pasha was still a beautiful little girl, which naturally attracted some people's coveting.

Not long after the two sisters arrived in the sphere of influence of Mingjiao, they encountered a Persian caravan going to Yumen Pass for business.

Pasha asked them about "Mingjiao".But the Persian businessman lied to them that he was going to do business with Mingjiao.

So the pasha gave them a jewel, asking them to take their sisters with them.

However, the Persian businessman was more interested in the Pasha sisters themselves than the gems in Pasha's hands.

So this Persian profiteer first deceived the trust of the two sisters, and then carefully inquired about their details.

And the flowers in the greenhouse go out for the first time.In addition, he said that he could take them to Mingjiao.

Naturally, he informed the Persian businessman of his basic situation.After learning that the Pasha sisters had no one to protect them, the Persian businessman revealed his nature as a robber.

He had originally thought about bringing some goods in exchange for a lot of money, but now the pair of sisters came to his door, and not only did the gems and gold coins on their bodies belong to him, even the two sisters became his "goods".

He wanted to take the Pasha sisters as "female slaves" to the vicinity of Yumen, and then sell them to the Central Plains.

After all, female slaves of the Semu people are very rare in the homes of some Han aristocrats, and they will look very face-saving.

They will pay a high price to buy it.

And Sister Pasha is not only beautiful, but also very young, and she is still a virgin.Can be sold for a higher price.

Hearing this, Zhang Wuji frowned and said, "Huh? I haven't paid much attention to this journey. I didn't expect that there is still human trafficking!"
