Volume 3 Gundam SEED Chapter 13 The Trap of Household Registration

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Yuanfu family is a famous private school nearby. Many people who have achieved great success have studied here. Even the former Hou Haohan of Maizhou was once a student of Yuanfu. However, I heard a while ago that Haohan was imprisoned because he was involved in the rebellion.  He was dismissed from his post and his whereabouts are still unknown.

    Most of the people loved Hao Han, who was a wise prince. The fact that Hao Han was dismissed also caused many people to be dissatisfied with the new king. However, national affairs are not something ordinary people are qualified to talk about, and they are not qualified to talk about them.  People understand the inside story.  No one could have imagined that the controversial new king, King Jingyang, was not in Jinbo Palace, but was also learning from Yuanfu in a private school how to behave in this world.

    "Yangzi is not a fool, she just doesn't understand the world, let alone the intrigues in the officialdom.  The reason why Maizhouhou was dismissed was because too many people said that he intended to rebel. However, Hao Han himself refused to accept the summons many times. It coincided with the assassination of Yang Zi again. Everything seemed to point to Hao Han's evil intentions.  For Yoko, knowing nothing about Qingguo officials, deposing Haohan was her only choice at the time.

    Yangzi still doesn¡¯t know whether this decision was right or wrong. Haohan¡¯s whereabouts are still unknown. Some people say that he was hiding to continue the assassination. Therefore, Jingqi sent two of his envoys to protect Yangzi.  But in fact, Yangzi was a little confused. Is Haohan really the assassin?  Originally, she was sure because of the unanimous approval of all the officials, but after living in Guji for a period of time and coming into contact with the people of Qing Kingdom, Yoko gradually became less convinced.

    But the king has no right to regret, because the king's order is the guideline of the court and is not allowed to be questioned. Even the king himself cannot question the king's order he has issued.  For the king, even if the king's order is wrong, it can only be the truth. In comparison, changing the order overnight is a bigger mistake.  So all Yoko can do is learn more and stop making wrong decisions.

    Because Yangzi came to Guji secretly to study and claimed to be going to the Yan Kingdom to visit King Yan, no one else knew her whereabouts except Jingqi and Yuanfu. Therefore, Jingqi did not come here to visit her often to avoid being exposed.  After all, Qingguo officials knew many people about Jing Qi, so frequent visits here would be too conspicuous.

    "Hey, Yoko, when will my brother wake up?"

    The person standing in front of the bed talking to Yangzi was a child from the Li family, named Guigui, who was an orphan adopted by Yuanfu.

    "I'll probably wake up in the next few days." Yoko said uncertainly.

    Lying on the bed was a strange child, whether from the perspective of Penglai or from the perspective of people here, with bright red hair. Yoko herself was born with red hair, but that child was different, like  Like a burning flame.  Jing Qi once said that the child was a unicorn. Yoko believed that Jing Qi was not mistaken, but why did a unicorn appear here?

    Qilin is Pengshan Gong and a famous figure in a country, so if they are not in their own country, they will be in Pengshan, unless they follow the king to visit other countries.  It is rare for Qilin to be alone in other countries, and even more so in such a bruised and bruised condition. Yoko couldn't help but think of Jing Qi a year ago.

    Just last year, Jing Qi chose her as the king of Qingdong Kingdom, and brought her to this world who knew nothing about the Twelve Kingdoms. But at that time, she did not trust Jing Qi, so not only did she suffer a lot  After the ordeal, Jing Qi was also captured and tortured by the king of Qiao Kingdom.

    So is this little unicorn the same?  He was separated from his king and ended up living in this pitiful situation.  What is equally pitiable are the citizens of that country. Without the king and the leader, that country will also be in ruins.

    Even in his sleep, the child still held a strange-looking sword in his hand. The sword seemed to be carved from stone. He tried hard to take the sword off, but he was afraid of hurting the child's fingers.  Yoko could only give up.

    Although she couldn¡¯t clearly understand it, Yoko could feel that it was a treasure no less important than the Shuiyu Sword, the national treasure of the Qing Dynasty in her hand, which symbolized the identity of the king.

    "Wake up quickly, your king and country are waiting for you." Yoko murmured. She originally wanted to reach out and touch the boy's fiery red hair, but she stopped after thinking that Qilin hated being touched by strangers the most.  hand.

    Although she did learn a lot from Yuanfu, Yoko decided to leave for a few days because of the vast number of things and some things she had to find out as the king of Qing.

    "Yuanfu, I plan to leave for a while these days. Can you please take care of that child?"

    "That child, do you mean Taifu? Of course there is no problem, but where are you going?" The Taifa mentioned by Yuanfu does not refer to Jingqi, which is the name of Qilin by the people of the Twelve Kingdoms.  Yangzi did not hide the identity of the child from the old man. Since Jingqi trusted him, Yangzi was willing to trust him.

    "I'm going to Tuofeng to have a look."

    "Tuofeng? He's from Zhishui Townshipah, I understand."

      Yuanfu nodded simply, which made Yoko feel a little strange.

    "Don't you ask me what I'm going to do?"

    "It is very necessary for Your Majesty to understand the country under his rule. There are some places you really need to see. What I can impart is far less detailed than what you can see with your own eyes."

    People here are silent about Hezhou. Lan Yu, another orphan from the Yuanfu family, even wants to marry a man she has never met in another state when she becomes an adult, and does not want to be assigned her household registration to Hezhou.  Yoko wanted to see with his own eyes and confirm what exactly happened in that state.

    With the same destination as Yangzi, another group of people was also heading towards Hezhou.

    Lao Niu dragged the carriage unhurriedly, perhaps because he had been sitting for too long. The originally excited chatter of the people behind the carriage gradually subsided, and they had entered Hezhou. Although Qingguo was a country that was waiting to be revitalized,  It seems a little different since entering the border with the state.  The same rags and rags, the same desolate fields, but the people here are not as enthusiastic about rebuilding the country as elsewhere.

    It was deathly silent, except for the creaking of the carriage as it pressed against the uneven ground. There was no other sound.  Walking on the street is like a ghost. Even if someone occasionally walks by, his face is pale and bloodless, and he is so skinny that he doesn't know whether he is a human or a ghost.

    After a few days, the carriage entered Zhishui Township and finally arrived, but the people in the carriage were not relieved or joyful about finally reaching their destination. The whole carriage was silent.

    They were deceived, and Ling felt cold when she realized this.  There were about ten people sitting on the bullock cart, all of whom were returning refugees. The curtain behind the cart was opened, and standing outside were expressionless soldiers holding spears in their hands. They simply said, "Come down."

    The plain voice was filled with great oppression. No one dared to ask questions, and they all got off the bullock cart silently.

    This is Zhishui Township. Any refugee who comes can receive household registration and land, regardless of birth or any certificate.  This is true, but it does not mean this is heaven.  Sometimes, there is only one step between heaven and hell.

    "70% tax?"

    The speaker was a gray-haired old man. After hearing that the new king came to the throne, the old man came back from the Yan Kingdom and just wanted to return to his roots and spend his old age peacefully on a land that was enough to make a living.  But if the 70% tax is really paid, even the last bit of rations for Siya will be gone.

    No wonder anyone can get household registration and land here. There is a saying here that "70% of a life is required". The tax here is 70% of people's income. Even if there is a little shortfall, they have to pay for it with their lives, or else  If you want to be beheaded, you have to pay for it with the lives of your family members. In short, "70%" is the price of "one life".

    Because too many people have died, there is no shortage of household registration and land here, only the manpower for farming. Too many ignorant people have been deceived and then lost their lives quickly.

    "I want to leave¡­¡­"

    The old man who had just said half a sentence was hit by a spear at his neck and could no longer say the rest of his words.

    "Leave? Ever since you set foot on this land, people from Zhishui Township must obey the orders of the mayor. Anyone who tries to leave will be killed!"

    The word "kill" suddenly silenced the surroundings that had become noisy due to the soldiers' words.

    Ling grabbed Xiaofeng's hand in fear. Although she was an immortal, she was only free from the normal birth, old age, illness and death. Apart from that, she did not know any magic, and her body was not stronger than ordinary people. She would still be injured if she was stabbed by a winter weapon.  If your head is cut off, you will still die.

    Why do you always have to encounter such things? Time and time again, you will always encounter bad luck.  Ling complained about her fate countless times.  In order to allow her family to have money to raise her younger siblings, she chose to sell herself and follow Aoyagi-sama to Tokyo. As a result, she fell into the sea and came to this world; in order to be able to communicate with people in this world, she chose to become a servant of Riyo-sama, but  She was tortured for a full hundred years; in order to return to her own world, she chose to go to Pengshan to meet Tai Qi, but was attacked by the envoy and was injured.  Fate was always so unfair to her, but she did not give up her efforts. This time she wanted to meet King Jing, but she was deceived into this place.

    Fate once again threw her into the abyss. At this time, all Ling could do was hold her companion's hand, hoping to get some comfort.  Xiaofeng's hands were a little cold, she must be afraid too, right?

    Thinking this, Ling quietly turned her head, and then she was stunned.  The girl's expression was cold. Ling thought she would see fear on Xiaofeng's face - just like herself, but it was not the case. Xiaofeng had anger and pity, but no fear.

    Before rushing to Zhishui Township, Yoko met someone.  This is outside Gujilijia Village.

    "Why are you dressed like an Arab?"

      "Arabs?" Jing Qi innocently repeated this term he had never heard before.

    Yang Zi claimed to the outside world that he had gone to Yan State, but after all, Jing Qi's appearance was too eye-catching, and many officials knew him. If he came in an open and honest manner, it would also expose Yang Zi's whereabouts.

    Although she knew this was the case, but seeing the man wrapping his whole body in white cloth to 'hide others' eyes and ears', Yoko couldn't help but laugh in a not-so-good-natured way at his master.

    "Is there anything inconvenient about me being like this?"

    "No, it's nothing," Yang Zi had no intention of explaining what 'Arab' meant to Jing Qi. "It's just strange that something happened that I bothered my Lord Jing Qi to come here in person."

    Yoko's voice was teasing, which was why she was always angry with Jing Qi recently, but Jing Qi's humor was obviously not enough for him to understand the meaning of the teasing, so he still just answered Yang Zi calmly.  The problem.

    "I received a letter of credence from Fang Guo. I think I know the identity of that unicorn."

    Generally speaking, the credential must be read by the king in person. Of course, as the half-body of the king, the emperor also has the right to read it, so Jing Qi already knows the contents, and this time he came to pass it on to Yangzi.

    This is a handwriting written by Marquis Yuexi of Huizhou in Fang Kingdom. Although Yuexi is still nominally the Marquis of the state, he is actually similar to a regent. The handwriting has Bai Chu's footprints printed on it (the jade seal that was temporarily issued by the new king before he ascended the throne is recognized by heaven).  , so there is nothing wrong with calling it the Credentials.  Qilin appeared in Fangguo, and a new king was recognized by Qilin, but Qilin and the king disappeared in the virtual sea.

    "In other words, that child is Feng Qi?"

    "That's probably it. There is also the missing new Peak King."

    Yangzi realized that the other party's situation was so similar to his own a year ago.
