Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Joshua and the others were sent to the Tang Dynasty's ship at a port in Arabia. When they boarded the ship, they were a family of three and boarded the ship. The Tang Dynasty's ship was far larger than they imagined.

They were handed over to Datang at the port. Looking at these fully armed and more powerful soldiers, Joshua fell into silence. He knew that he could not run away, but...this ship was almost full of soldiers.

As for his wife, Joshua thought that his wife was still very beautiful. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grasped his wife's arm tightly, and the two of them protected their daughter between them.

"You three, come here." Just when Joshua was stunned, a soldier's voice suddenly sounded in front of him, and the other party spoke in unfamiliar Persian.

But Joshua and the others still heard it. Joshua's heart couldn't help tightening, and he could only walk over cautiously with his wife and daughter.

"This, yours." The soldier didn't speak much Persian, but Joshua understood his movements, and the soldier pointed to a cabin and said this to him.

Joshua was stunned for a moment and subconsciously followed the soldier's finger. It was a cabin that was not too big.

There is a double bed and a small table inside, which are fixed in the cabin. There are some special straws placed on the double bed, and a linen sheet is spread on the straw.

This...is the cabin for them?

Who prepares cabins for slaves?Shouldn't everyone be thrown into a big cabin?

But Joshua quickly came to his senses and hurriedly took his wife and daughter into the cabin. The cabin was very dark. After all, the cabins of this era were not like those of later generations that could install glass doors.

These cabins are filled with specially sealed oil lamps, but the oil lamps are not lit at this moment.

Instead, through some special passages in the entire cabin, there seem to be some crystal-like things that can refract sunlight and illuminate them.

In fact, this is just a method of refracting sunlight illumination using the principle of a periscope, because for today's Tang Dynasty, mercury mirrors are really not a rare thing and not valuable.

Some mirrors can be arranged in the ventilation channels reserved inside the cabin, which can replace some daytime lighting methods.

But these are not important, because these Tang people continue to allocate cabins to everyone in the back. If a cabin is for a family, it will be assigned to a family, but it will not exceed three people at most. If those people are not a family, just an ordinary Slave, then there will be three people in one cabin.

Of course, Joshua didn't know that these transport ships had also undergone emergency modifications. For example, many cabins were originally divided into two cabins by temporary binding boards.

Anyway, the distance they transported is not too far.

Everyone made arrangements quickly. Joshua and the others were in the room and did not dare to go anywhere. After all, although the soldiers had arranged a good cabin for them, they would be hacked to death if they ran around.

"Father, are we saved?" Joshua's daughter asked in Persian. She was still young and didn't understand anything else, but she knew that she had been captured by bad guys before, and now they were on this ship. The other party gave them a place to live, and did not beat or scold them.

"Yes, we are saved." Joshua whispered, what else could he say?You can't say they have been sold, right?

"Joshua, I don't think they are bad people." Joshua's wife whispered.

"I don't know...but we were bought back as slaves." Joshua also spoke.

What else did his wife want to say? There was a knock on their door, and then several people pushed their door open. The three of them instantly became nervous.

In came a soldier they had never seen before.

"Now I will explain to you the rules on the ship. Remember this bucket of water. This is a bucket of sea water. It is not for you to eat or drink. It is needed if there is a fire accidentally in your cabin. It puts out fires." The soldiers who came in didn't say anything at all, but spoke directly.

"If more than half of the water in this bucket is spilled because the ship encounters wind and waves, you need to take it to the outer deck immediately to fetch water and fill it up, understand?" learned.

"Understood." Joshua breathed a sigh of relief and quickly agreed. He was still afraid of how the other party would torment them, but he didn't expect to just tell them the rules on the ship.

"You will be provided with two meals on the ship, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. During meal time, a copper bell will ring outside, and then you will go out and go to the back of your floor to queue up for meals."

"And if you want to use the toilet, there is a toilet in your cabin. After using it, you can take it to the washing area on the deck, dump it, clean it and then bring it back. Do you understand?"

"Understood." Joshua nodded quickly.

"Okay, that's all. Remember, you are not allowed to run around outside outside of these things. If anyone runs around outside, you will be responsible for the consequences. Every night, you will oil your oil lamps and light them. "The soldier said coldly.

Joshua naturally didn't dare to refute, and nodded obediently in agreement. Now that the other party has treated them well enough, what else can he think?

The other party closed the door and quickly walked to the next cabin. As the cabin door closed, their cabin became dim again.

Joshua's family stayed in their cabin obediently like this, until when they were eating in the afternoon, there was the sound of copper bells being rung outside, and someone shouted in Persian that it was time to eat.

Hearing the shout, remembering the previous explanation, Joshua led his family out through the cabin door. The cabin doors near them were also opened one after another, and everyone walked out.

Everyone was in line and everyone was hungry.

The Arabs themselves don’t have enough food, so how can we feed them enough?Besides, what if they make trouble after eating?So we just let them barely starve to death.

Joshua's family followed the team honestly. When he was about to get close to the food distribution place, Joshua smelled a unique fragrance. This...could not be for them to eat, could it?

But the person at the front just happened to have already received their meal. It was a wooden plate with some things that seemed to be mixed together, and there was a big steamed bun next to it.

Joshua didn't know steamed buns, but the weight and fragrance of these things surprised him. This... would these people make them full?Because Joshua saw that everyone was holding a dinner plate in their hands.

In other words, everyone has it.
