What 𗖦 means
It is a Tangut character whose exact English sense needs context. Li Fanwen indexes it as 0629, reconstructs the reading du, and pairs it with Chinese gloss 済.
Created around 1036 under Western Xia’s first emperor, Tangut was used for state and Buddhist writing, including translations, printed scriptures, inscriptions and manuscripts. It continued into the Yuan and Ming dynasties, becoming obsolete by the end of the Ming dynasty. The Tangut script is unrelated to Chinese writing, though its characters resemble Chinese ideographs.
Historical and scholarly; its reading needs Tangut text or dictionary context.
The Chinese gloss 済 is not an English translation.

1Why does 𗖦 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
