Chapter 15: The Surrounding Nations
Ye Chuqing guessed and guessed, but he didn't guess that the predecessors of the crossing were actually from the Song Dynasty.
The people of the Song Dynasty, the ancient people of the Eight Classics. This is the ancient Chinese people who have traveled to the ancient times of the sky! Don't you want to be so powerful!
But...... Since this time-traveling predecessor is so powerful, has he found a way to go back? Since he's a jack of all trades, he probably really left a way.
After the initial shock, Ye Chuqing immediately became excited again. A monk who can be called a living Buddha, and a time-traveling predecessor who is known as a national teacher. Then if she returns to modern times, she will have double insurance. There's nothing better in the world!
"Brother, is there any successor to that national teacher? Where do you live? Ye Chuqing was happy in her heart, and even spoke with joy.
Ye Chuyang was surprised by how quickly his sister's face changed. He really didn't know why his sister had become so happy in the blink of an eye. Is that exciting?
Shaking his head, Ye Chuyang suppressed the doubts in his heart and replied: "Since the founding of the National Teacher, each National Teacher will have a descendant disciple to inherit the mantle, and the only descendant disciple will succeed to the position of the National Teacher after the National Teacher Immortal is gone. The national teacher also has a mansion in the capital, but most of the national teachers are in the palace, and they rarely return to the house in a year. Because there is an immortal dome pavilion specially built by the lord of the country for the national teacher in the palace, it is adjacent to the Tai Hospital. ”
"Huh?" Ye Chuqing's excited expression froze on her face. Why is it still in the palace? Do you have to go into the palace to see them? However, Xiao Sun said that his death had passed, and he could appear openly.
Hey, enter the palace? Isn't National Saint Day approaching? Well, that's it!
Thinking of this, Ye Chuqing became happy again.
However, the speed at which she changed her face was an eye-opener for Ye Chuyang. How many times has she changed her face after such a while?
Ye Chuyang was thinking about it to himself, so he heard Ye Chuqing ask him: "Is everyone in the family at the National Shengri Palace banquet entering the palace?" ”
Ye Chuyang responded: "Yes, the rules of praying for the country, all officials above the fifth grade in Beijing must bring their families to participate in the palace banquet." What's more, my aunt is still in the palace, and our family can still meet my aunt by taking the opportunity of the palace banquet. ”
Wow! She also has a cheap girl as a maid? There's also a backstage in the palace, which feels really good.
However, Ye Chuyang's next words were full of concern: "However, when I was traveling this time, I heard that the Green Hornet would send their princess to the lord of the country as a concubine on the National Holy Day. My aunt is now about to give birth, how sad should my aunt be if a beauty enters the palace at this time? ”
Ye Chuqing listened, raised her eyebrows, and disagreed. Isn't it all like this in the palace? I only see the new people laughing, but I don't see the old people worrying. This ancient woman is also pitiful. Seeing that her husband hugged left and right for this and was merciful to that, her heart was dripping with blood, but she smiled on her face, and she had to persuade her husband to sleep more with other women, so that she could be regarded as a good woman.
Such a "good woman" Ye Chuqing asked herself if she couldn't do it. The price of a good woman is to give her husband to another woman, then she would rather be a bad woman.
But luckily, she doesn't belong in this place. When she returns to her own time and space, she is still the bright and lively detective overlord flower. She will still find a good man who loves her with all his heart. What bullshit three wives and four concubines here have nothing to do with her, and they can't hinder her eyes.
At this time, he looked at Ye Chuyang with a worried look on his face. Ye Chuqing stretched out her hand and patted him on the shoulder, comforting: "Okay, we can't take care of the affairs in the palace." It's better to accompany my aunt while we enter the palace, let her relax, and give birth to the child safely first. ”
Ye Chuyang listened to Ye Chuqing's words, nodded sullenly and responded: "Hmm! ”
After thinking about it, Ye Chuqing asked again: "By the way, there is such a country as the Green Hornet Country?" At this time, Detective Ye seemed to have forgotten that Shopkeeper Han had also mentioned the Green Bee Country to her.
Ye Chuyang looked at Ye Chuqing and was a little surprised: "Aren't there books in your study?" There is a special book "Exotic Chronicles" in it, which is about the historical development of the surrounding countries, humanities and landforms, haven't you read it a long time ago? ”
Ye Chuqing stared at the beads of her eyes for a long time, and finally replied speechlessly. In other words, she is actually a good young man who is eager to learn. Last time, I patted my chest and promised to teach her to read flawlessly. But when she really arrived at the study, Ye Chuqing's head immediately became bigger. Although the characters here have been changed to Chinese characters by the predecessors of the Song Dynasty, what is the matter with the traditional Chinese characters one by one? It looks like she barely knows half of the words!
Ye Chuqing was angry and wanted to scold her mother. Do you want to be so lacking in virtue by crossing the great god? It's obvious that she's doing this! If you just get a new century all-round talent to cross, you can also create such a brilliant future. But why are you an ancient man? It's good now, she, a latecomer, suffers in terms of this text.
Therefore, for the guarantee of flawlessness, Ye Chuqing has been delayed again and again. She doesn't know how to read herself, so how can she teach others? There's no shame!
At this time, Ye Chuqing stared at Ye Chuyang in front of him with a pair of big eyes, and her expression was extremely aggrieved: "I forgot!" ”
"You, you, you!" Ye Chuyang shook his head helplessly, asked Ye Chuqing to sit down, and began to tell her again: "There are three major countries around our prayer country. The king of the green bee country in the southeast is young and promising, vigorously developing his own agriculture while making friends with other countries, and for the first time in history, he has opened up the business road between the green bee country and other countries. However, the national style of the Green Bee Country is actually equality between men and women. A woman can inherit the throne or become an official in the court. ”
Ye Chuqing's eyes lit up, and there is such an enlightened country? It's rare!
Ye Chuyang continued: "Hongliang Country, located in the south, is an island country. The entire Hongliang Kingdom is located in a sea area and exists independently. Due to the geographical convenience, the fishing industry of Hongliang country is prosperous. We pray that the fish, shrimp and crabs used in our country and even other countries are purchased from Hongliang country. It is worth mentioning that Hongliang is a relatively special country. In the country, women are respected, and women are inferior to men. When the queen of Hongliang was in power, all the important officials in the country were women, and although there were men as officials, their status was always subservient to women. ”
Ye Chuqing asked curiously: "Does the queen have a male pet?" In her cognition, doesn't Wu Zetian have a male pet when he becomes the emperor? The queen should have a male pet.
Ye Chuyang blushed at her question, and glared at her fiercely: "You girl ......" paused, shook her head helplessly, and continued: "The queen of Hongliang Kingdom also has a harem, basically the same as Qi Guo. The harem of Hongliang Kingdom has a royal husband, a first-class waiter, two second-class waiters, four third-grade waiters, and four fourth-grade waiters. The next crown prince turned 14 last year, and he has chosen a husband and two men. ”
Ye Chuyang's face was red, and Ye Chuqing was dumbfounded when he heard it.
The women of Hongliang Country are really bullish, and the lost dignity of women in other countries has been regained by them.
Ye Chuyang continued after being awkward: "The Red Country in the north is also a country where men are superior to women like our Prayer Country. The difference is that the Red Nationals are fierce and brave and good at fighting. Chi is mainly based on animal husbandry, and cattle, sheep and horses from several of our countries are purchased from Chi Guo. However, the current Emperor of the Red Kingdom is ambitious and bent on expanding his territory to the Kingdom of Qi. Therefore, the country of prayer and the country of Chi can be said to be at odds with each other, and in private there is a turbulent undertide. I heard my father say that not long ago, there seemed to be an abnormality in the Red Country, and my father and they had already deployed combat measures. If the war starts, Daddy will lead his troops to the battle. ”
Ye Chuqing nodded with a loss and asked, "Are there only so many countries on this continent?" ”
Ye Chuyang shook his head and replied, "No, the few I mentioned just now are all big countries. As for small countries...... There are more than a dozen small national tribes in the surrounding area alone, all of which are dependent on the four great powers and are subject states of the four great powers. ”
"Oh!" Ye Chuqing understood now. The time and space I am in is very similar to the original time and space. The land distribution of human beings and the evolution of all things are extremely similar to their previous time and space.
After a pause, Ye Chuqing looked at the sky outside and found that it was a little late, and it should be time to go to bed. Then he coughed and said, "Brother, why don't we rest first?" I've got something to do tomorrow! ”
Ye Chuyang glanced at her: "What?" Planning to sneak out tomorrow? However, I don't think it's possible. Today, my father and mother are going to come to have dinner with you, but I blocked them back. I'm going to come to see you tomorrow. ”
Ye Chuqing was anxious when she heard this, and immediately shouted: "No, I have to send three hundred taels of silver to Huiwei Pavilion tomorrow." What should I do if I can't get out? ”
Ye Chuyang smiled: "Look at you're in a hurry!" Why don't I send you the money tomorrow?" You can't let your family know about your escape, or you'll be finished. Which daughter of a big family escaped over the wall like you? Even if your father and mother spoil you again, they will never allow you to do those things that are out of line. ”
Ye Chuqing glared at Ye Chuyang for a long time, couldn't refute a word, and suddenly deflated, and said wiltedly: "Okay, just listen to you!" After that, he ordered Aunt Lan to fetch three hundred taels of silver tickets and handed them to Ye Chuyang.
Little Sun is right. In this era of conservative thinking about the superiority of men and the inferiority of women, she is deviant and immoral. Even if her parents spoil her, she can't get past worldly prejudices. She still has to keep her little life alive and return to her own place!
