"Sister! Sister! ”

Judy pointed to a blank piece of paper on her finger and said to the housekeeper.

As soon as he heard this, the housekeeper also reacted and said, "Oh, Miss Judy, you're talking about paper slips, right?"

"Hmmm! Well! ”

Judy nodded heavily.

When she spoke of "Yayan", the official language of the era, she was somewhat ambiguous and her words were not clear enough.

No wonder others don't understand!

However, Qingji can understand a little and speak it.

Qingji in his previous life, proficient in many foreign languages.

The language of this Europa beauty named Judy is somewhat similar to modern Greek and German, which is plausible and mixed together.

This classical Western language is the same as ancient Chinese in China.

In other words, if a modern person travels to the Spring and Autumn Period, it is difficult to communicate normally with the ancients.

Because of the language barrier!

Qingji is soul piercing, so there is no pressure in that regard.

"Who is this?"

Seeing Qingji stepping forward to ask, the housekeeper hurriedly replied: "Wang, she is Zhu Di, the bearded girl who followed Lao Tzu back from the Western Regions."

"Although Miss Judy can speak some everyday language, it is difficult for her to communicate with us normally."

Hearing this, Qingji bowed slightly, and immediately set his eyes on Judy's body, and then according to Judy's previous grammar, he asked out loud, "Are you Judy?"

"Yikes! Can you understand what I'm saying? Can you communicate with me normally? ”

Judy suddenly stepped forward in ecstasy, blinked her sapphire eyes, and said, "I'm Judy Pekla." From the far west, did you know the city-state of Athens? That's my hometown! ”

"That man just called you 'the king', are you the king of this country?"

Hearing this, Qingji nodded and said, "I am King Wu, the monarch of this country."

"Oh! What an honor for me! Beloved King, you shine like the sun! ”

"Allow me to offer you the highest courtesy!"

As soon as the words fell, Judy, who was very excited, grabbed Qingji's big hand.

"Escort!"

The faces of those present changed dramatically.

The guards who followed Qingji rushed forward in a hurry, and the spears in their hands were pointed at Judy.

Judy was stunned, holding Qingji's big hand for a while, a little at a loss.

"Stand down!"

Qingji couldn't laugh or cry, so he waved his hand and motioned for all the guards to retreat.

Looking at the stunned Judy, Qingji chuckled and said, "Judy, I'm sorry, they're just concerned about the widow's safety."

"Widows?"

"That's me, a self-proclaimed one."

"I see!"

Judy suddenly realized that after making sure that the guards behind Qingji who were strong and stubborn and had big shoulders and round waists would not hurt her, Judy immediately held Qingji's hand and kissed him on the back of his hand.

Fortunately!

Just a hand kiss, not a foot kiss!

If it is a kiss on the feet, Qingji will inevitably have some diaphragms in his heart.

For the blonde and blue-eyed Judy in front of him, Qingji's heart was full of curiosity.

So, Qingji and Judy came to a study room and sat opposite each other.

From the conversation, Qingji already knew that Judy was from the ancient Greek city-state of Athens, far to the west.

Athens was originally the name of a city on the Attica Peninsula, and it became the name of the country after Attica was unified into a single city-state.

By this time, the democracy of the Athenian city-state had been established.

Eight years earlier, in 510 BC, after the overthrow of the tyrants of Athens (equivalent to kings, monarchs), the struggle between the clan nobility and between the clan nobility and the commoners sharpened.

Clans, clans and tribal organizations that retain kinship are no longer able to meet the needs of the further development of the slave-possessing state.

Thus, the Christianescent Reform came into being.

It was at that time that Judy escaped from Athens.

Because Judy's father was a tyrant in the city-state of Athens, her status was equivalent to that of a princess.

It's just that the feathered phoenix is not as good as the chicken.

In the past eight years, Judy has been a little girl who has traveled all the way across the sea, fleeing from the city-state of Athens, crossing the Persian Empire, passing through the thousands of miles of Hanhai (desert), and finally meeting Lao Tzu in the Western Regions......

For some of the history of the West, Qingji also has a certain understanding.

In ancient Greece, due to the limitations of the terrain, many city-states were separated by mountains, and there was only a very small amount of land transportation in between, so each small city-state regarded itself as "the world".

Inside the walls are friends, and outside the walls are enemies.

As a result, hundreds of city-states sprang up in Greece proper, on the coast of the Aegean Sea, and on the islands.

Among them, the two city-states of Athens and Sparta developed rapidly and powerfully......

In about ten years, the famous First Greco-Persian War will break out.

"Judy, how many people are in your city-state of Athens?"

Qingji asked curiously.

"Hmm......"

Judy's onion-white fingers were on her lips, tilting her head, seriously recalling it, and then said, "About 400,000." But now it's definitely more than 400,000! ”

"Your Majesty, how many people does your country have?"

"Ten times the size of your Athenian city-state."

"Ten...... Ten times? ”

Judy stared at her big beautiful eyes and smacked her tongue, "Are there really so many?"

"No lie!"

"The only country that can be compared to the king in terms of population is the Persian Empire."

"The Persian Empire?"

"yes. The Achaemenid dynasty of the Persians is extremely powerful, and the population is unknown, but I heard that the Persians have an army of hundreds of thousands......"

From Judy's mouth, Qingji also learned how strong the current Persian Empire is.

In 559 BC, Cyrus the Great unified the ancient Persian tribes and established the Achaemenid dynasty.

This was the First Persian Empire.

During the reign of Cyrus the Great, the Medes kingdom was destroyed, making Persia a powerful monarchy.

He invaded and conquered the kingdom of Lydia in western Asia Minor at that time, leading to the rise of the Achaemenid dynasty.

After this, Cyrus the Great invaded eastward and conquered Parthia, Aliya, Bactria, and Derangiana......

Gedrosia, Arachossia, Marchina, the central Asian region between the Syr Darya and the Amu Darya (Sogdiana), Gantora, Kransmia and other regions.

The Persians conquered Babylon, the capital of the Chaldean Empire in Mesopotamia, ending the ancient Babylonian civilization.

During this period, Persia had become the only center of civilization in Western Asia.

The Persian kings after Cyrus the Great actively expanded their territories and tried their best to expand abroad.

If Qingji remembers correctly, the current king of the Persians should be the famous Darius I.

The Achaemenid dynasty of ancient Persia was the largest empire in the world at this time, and it was also the first world empire to span Asia, Europe and Africa.

To the east, the Persians had reached the plains of the ancient Indus River and invaded the Western Regions.

To the west, the Persians conquered the kingdoms of Thrace and Macedonia, and eyed the city-states of ancient Greece.

Fortunately, the Persians did not know that there were rich and vassal Chinese kingdoms in the east.

Otherwise, Darius I might have set his sights on the Far East......
