Chapter 271 Wei Qing's Seal of the Kingdom

Liu Bian also wanted to stay in Tianzhu for a period of time to help Huo Qubing better establish his rule, so that those Xianbei Wuhuan could better serve as the vanguard of the big man.

Therefore, he arranged for manpower to escort Patelius back to the Roman Empire by land.

From Huo Qubing's Northwest Tianzhu fiefdom, he wanted to return to the Roman Empire.

It must pass through the Persian area.

Soon, Patellius' team entered Wei Qing's feudal kingdom.

It is also within the territory of the present Dahanwei State.

Patellius saw that there were busy businessmen everywhere in the Wei Kingdom.

These merchants included not only local Persians, but also many people from Tianzhu, Kangju, and even many people from the Eastern Central Plains.

Patrius pulled a Persian-looking businessman next to him and asked with a smile.

"My friend, where is your market here, I want to go and see!"

"Just around the corner!" said the Persian.

Patellius was very satisfied and thanked the Persians.

"May your God of Light bless you, my Persian friend."

In fact, what he thought in his heart was that only dead Persians are good Persians.

After all, Rome and Persia have hated each other for so many years, it is strange that Patrius can sincerely bless him.

Unexpectedly, this sentence caused trouble.

When the Persian businessman heard what Patrius said, he immediately turned his face.

He grabbed Patrius' clothes and shouted loudly.

"What did you say?"

Seeing his angry look, Patrius was really afraid that he would admit it here.

If he didn't leave the post easily, those big soldiers would definitely protect him.

However, now he can only rely on himself.

"My friend, I didn't say anything. I just said that the God of Light bless you. Isn't that the god of your Persians?" Patrius said.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, the Persian businessman became even more angry.

"Bah! Blind your dog eyes, take a closer look, I am not a Persian, I can be an upright Han man!"

As the Persian businessman spoke, he showed off a silk belt around his waist.

Looking at the belt, Patrius was completely blinded.

What's happening here?
What's so great about a belt?

Isn't it just made of silk? It must be expensive, but what does it have to do with Persians and Han people?

"My friend, I am also from the Han people in the Central Plains, but you look different from them." Patrius said.

When he heard that Patrius was actually from the Central Plains, the Persian businessman was stunned.

Unconsciously let go of the hand.

"I am a Han Chinese who has been certified by King Wei of the Han Dynasty. I am a Han Chinese who can wear silk belts and receive tax relief!"

The Persian-looking businessman said loudly.

Such a situation made Patrius even more confused.

In order to understand the situation, Patrius fawned over him and dragged the businessman to a nearby tavern to sit down.

The businessman was also curious about the origin of Patrius' big man in the Central Plains, and the two of them started talking.

After chatting slowly, Patrius figured out what was going on.

It turns out that in today's Hanwei State, which was once the eastern Persia area, the Hanwei Wang Weiqing adopted a system of classifying all subjects.

The highest class, called the first class, is composed of the Han army, officials and common people of the Great Han Dynasty. They all adopt the etiquette of the Central Plains, adopt Chinese surnames and Chinese names, learn Chinese characters, have preferential property and taxation, and can also serve as officials.

The second-class people are the servants who migrated from the Protectorate of the Western Regions and the Hezhong area. Most of them are nomadic cavalry from Kangju people, Wusun people and other tribes. These people have no culture and serve as supplementary troops.

The third-class people are ordinary people who believe in Zoroastrianism in Persia. They are numerous in number, but they belong to the conquered who are oppressed.

The last class, the fourth class, were other local natives in the territory of Persia, and they were among the barbarians who were conquered.

In this way, Persia was messed with all classes.

Many Persians are trying to become a higher status in order to survive and benefit.

In particular, the identity of the Han people is actually very easy to obtain.

They only need to learn some Chinese characters, and then pay a sum of money to get a Chinese surname and a Chinese name, and become the upper class of the feudal country.

When Patrius heard this, he was stunned.

He never imagined that the Han people in the Central Plains in the east were so terrifying.

Not only do they want to conquer your land, but they also want to wipe out your ethnic group and destroy your civilization, but they still have nothing to say.

"God, then you are a standard Han now?" Parlius asked.

"That's right, my current identity is a Han Chinese who lived in Weiguo in the Great Han Dynasty. I used to be called Adanatoshid, but now I have completely changed my Chinese name to a Chinese name."

"what is it call?"

"My surname is Li now, and my name is Zhongfu!"

The curly-haired and blue-eyed Li Zhongfu said.

"Li Zhongfu?"

When Patrius heard it, he guessed a little bit about the origin.

He has stayed in the Central Plains for such a long time, and he already has a considerable understanding of the history of the East.

Patellius knew that 400 years ago, a general of the Han Dynasty was defeated on the grassland and then exiled to the barbarians, and he also left many descendants.

Many barbarians in the Western Regions are now descendants of the Han general who claimed to be themselves.

"Does your surname come from a big man's general?" Patrius asked.

Li Zhongfu stared with a pair of green eyes, looking very surprised.

"That's right, how did you know that?"

Patrius smiled and shook his head, then continued.

"Not only do I know that the general's surname is Li, but I also know that he was later a prisoner of the Huns, and then he left behind descendants." Patellius said.

This statement is very popular. Almost all the Hu people from the Western Regions encountered are descendants of Li Ling who claims to be himself.

I don't know which educated Han people came up with it, but it actually produced a brand effect.

"Hahaha, my friend, you are so amazing, you can see my noble status at a glance, and I won't hide it anymore. I am the 23rd, oh, no, I should be the 21st generation heir of General Li Ling of the Han Dynasty!" Li Zhongfu Some stammered said.

His identity was actually acquired by a Han official when he was buying an identity at Prince Wei's Mansion.

After all, the household registration of a big Han is not only a name, but also records of ancestral home, which gives the Han officials room to play.
