Soon, the news of the lifting of the sea ban spread throughout the country.

"What is written on this?" asked a hundred people standing in the crowd.

I saw that this common man was very thin. He was wearing a bamboo hat on his head, and the clothes he was wearing had several big holes. Some of the broken holes were mended with needles and threads, but these were used for mending. The cloth does not match the clothes he is wearing at all.

Looking at the hair on the head, there are already a lot of white hairs. The beard under the nose and the beard on the chin are already very long, and they also have white beards.

It seems that he is already an old man.

Looking at this shabby appearance, a scholar who was among them looked at the paper posted on the brick next to the city gate and said: "Old man, it says that the sea ban has been lifted and the people can go to sea to fight. Once the fishing is done, this business can also go overseas. Also, the imperial court advocates the establishment of militia teams to station at ports along the coast to guard against foreign pirates. Those who join can be exempted from taxes for a lifetime. "

Hearing what the young scholar said, the old man turned around, looked at the scholar with a happy face, and asked, "You mean to be exempted from taxes for a lifetime?"

Not only did the old man look at him, but the illiterate people in the crowd also looked at this scholar.

The young scholar listened to the old man's question, nodded, and said: "However, the people who go here can only be those who are above weak crown and below Zhi Ming, and the number of people in the family cannot exceed two men." Go. I think you must be past the age of knowing your fate, right?"

After listening to the scholar's words, the smile on the old man's face suddenly disappeared. He nodded and said, "Yes." After saying this, the old man still said, "It's a pity, it's a pity." Then he walked away.

Looking at the white and black characters on the wall and listening to the scholar's words, an uneducated woman standing in the crowd asked the scholar: "Young man, this means that in Between a weak man and a wise man, if there are no more than two men in the family, then only one of them can go. This family will not have to pay taxes for the rest of their lives. Is this right?"

When asked by the woman in front of him, the young scholar nodded: "Yes, this is exactly the reason."

See, after listening to the scholar's words, the woman immediately showed a proud look on her face.

With a happy face, it seems that my family meets this condition.

"Okay, okay. I'll go back and tell my son." After muttering to herself, the woman walked away with a smile on her face.

After hearing what this scholar said, the common people who stood in the crowd, those who understood and those who were in line with their families, left happily, those who were not in line with it also left in disappointment, and those who did not understand were still bold. asked.

At this time, a man with disheveled hair and face covering his face standing in the crowd retreated. Seeing her retreat, the people following her also retreated.

Both of them had unkempt hair and covered their faces, but one was slightly taller. There was absolutely no difference in figure between the two.

"Where are you going?" A man with unkempt hair and face covering his face asked in a low voice.

I don't know whether it was because he couldn't hear or didn't want to come back, but he saw the unkempt man walking away without answering.

Seeing that she didn't answer, he didn't feel like asking more questions, so he had to follow her.

This place was Fucheng, Liangcheng Prefecture, and it was also the last Fucheng that He Yuhong and Zheng Chui attacked in their previous battle plan. However, due to a sudden change in the situation, they were forced to go back before several counties under the jurisdiction of Fucheng, Liangcheng Prefecture, had been occupied.

Therefore, this Liangcheng Fucheng escaped disaster.

The place where the notice is posted is outside the south gate of Fucheng, Liangcheng Prefecture.

Liangcheng Mansion is a coastal place. After leaving the city gate, not far away, you will face the boundless sea.

I saw that the man with unkempt hair and face, who had not spoken and was slightly taller than the people accompanying him, stopped under a mangrove tree. To be precise, he stopped under a mangrove tree.

No one was seen around here.

At this time, the people accompanying him dared to speak: "Miss, where are we going?"

After listening to the words and seeing that no one was around, the young lady in question took off the hat and then the veil.

You can see that she has a fair, almond-shaped face, two bright and beautiful eyes under her eyebrows, and black hair. If you look closely, this woman looks like a fairy from the Nine Heavens.

Of course, don't look at her being taller than the people walking next to her.

Her surname is almost the same, but in fact, she is still in kindergarten age, that is, ten years old, and her name is Han Muxin.

Looking at the endless sea and the strong sea breeze, Miss Han thought to herself: "Join the militia."

Listening to the young lady's words, the woman with a shaggy hair and face covering who was shorter than her took off her bamboo hat and veil, and saw that she had a rosy apple face, a pair of phoenix eyes that were looking forward to, and slender long hair. Braid, she looks like a beautiful woman.

But looking at their appearance, there is still no way to tell how old the woman is, just like the young lady Han Muxin. If one only looked at the height, who would know that she is a woman who is only ten years old.

She is already a twenty-nine-year-old woman, just a few years older than Han Muxin.

Her name is Cen Rong.

"Miss, are you crazy?" Cen Rong said.

After hearing Cen Rong's words, Han Muxin, who was only ten years old, looked at Cen Rong with his immature face and said, "I'm not crazy."

On the surface, this doesn't seem very ridiculous, but if you know your age, it becomes ridiculous at first glance.

"Miss!" Cen Rong shouted and then said, "Both of us are women. This militia team will definitely not want us. Besides, our ages are not suitable."

If you don't look at it from this title, the relationship between the two is not like that of master and servant, but more like that of sisters.

After hearing the words of the maid Cen Rong, Miss Hanmu thought to herself: "What's wrong with the women? Can we pretend to be men? If our age doesn't match, we can fake it. Besides, with the two of us like this, this Who would know how old we are walking down the street?”

Listening to the young lady's rebuttal, it made some sense, but the maid Cen Rong was thinking about her family and said: "Miss, even if these things can fool you, you can't fool your family, right? Look at these few things. We have been drifting for years without a home, and if the government investigates, they won't kick us out."

After listening to the words of the maid Cen Rong, Miss Hanmu thought for a while and looked at the rough waves on the sea. After a while, Hanmu thought in his heart: "There will always be a way to deal with it, and we both can." I can't just wander around like this. How can I avenge my father and my brothers?"
