Chapter 83: Overkill
After King Qinghe recited two pages of text, he said, "How did you hear it for the first time?" β
Frankly speaking, King Qinghe's pronunciation is already very good, but the accent is still not standard - Feng Zhirong was able to spell well in the accent because of the relationship between working abroad for many years in her previous life, and she had drunk foreign ink, so she also said calmly: "I heard it clearly, and let me repeat it again." β
Because she knew that her "special ability" would be discovered sooner or later, and time was precious, she didn't want to waste her time learning the alphabet from scratch, so she had already made up her mind not to be stupid at the beginning, and to save herself from acting gradually.
She repeated the passage that King Qinghe had recited, and the fluency of the speed, the fluency of the intonation, and the clarity of the accent surprised King Qinghe and King Jing.
King Qinghe even praised: "Girl! Are you the reincarnation of a god? How can I read so well all of a sudden! β
King Jing frowned and did not speak.
Feng Zhirong secretly glanced at King Jing's face, knowing that he was suspicious, so he said to King Qinghe: "I have been a fast learner since I was a child, which is praised by my grandfather and parents, but don't treat me as a demon and a monster." β
"But this is the first time you have seen this kind of book, except for the Siyi Pavilion in the Imperial City, there should be no such book in Daye." King Qinghe paused for a moment and added, "Even if it is a private possession, it is illegal. β
Feng Zhirong said: "In the past, I saw that my grandfather's bookcase had written about the customs and customs of the surrounding countries, and there were always some examples written in those books. So it's not the first time I saw it. β
King Qinghe and King Jing had doubts on their faces, but they didn't know how to ask for a while. Feng Zhirong had expected such a reaction from the two, so she also pretended that she hadn't finished her words and added: "What's more! I have heard my aunt and uncle speak some of her foreign language, and my aunt and uncle's family are in Hezhou, and they are people from near Xiantuo, and their ancestors also shed a small part of Xiantuo's blood, so they can also speak and understand some of them. My aunt and uncle have always loved me, and I used to learn from them when I heard them talk about it. "Xiantuo is a country located in the north of Daye, or the north and the east, although the relationship with Daye has been bad for a long time, and even bad, but if there is no war and the people-to-people trade between the borders is still smooth, there will naturally be naturalized Xiantuo people living in Daye for a long time.
There are many such places on the border of Daye, and they are also closely monitored by Daye's local army. And those foreign people came to Daye to seek a better life, so they only regarded this kind of surveillance as a price to live and work in Daye, and it was like this for generations, until they intermarried with the people of Daye and fully integrated into Daye.
Just like Feng Zhirong's aunt and uncle, Cao Zhongyu and Cao Jinpei, the two of them are the descendants of one of the clans in the Daye people and Xiantuo Kingdom. Although when it was passed on to the two sisters, Xiantuo's bloodline was much thinner, but due to the relationship between the environment in which they grew up, even if Xiantuo's words were not very familiar, they were much better than ordinary people.
Feng Zhirong had asked Cao Zhongyu a few more words because of curiosity before, knowing that although there were many tribes in Xiantuo, because they belonged to the same source, what they said was also similar, almost only a few differences in vocabulary. In modern terms, it is the difference between the Castilian dialect of Spanish and the Spanish language of Latin America, or the difference in the use of Spanish in different Latin American countries.
As for the more distant tribal language issues, Cao Zhongyu and Feng Zhirong were straightforward at that time, and it was not until later that Feng Zhirong inadvertently talked about this topic with Feng Xuhui, the eldest brother who had been a layman for many years, that he roughly understood that the languages of the northern countries were generally like the languages of the Iberian Romance branch, because they belonged to the same language branch, as long as they could understand one of them, it would be much faster to learn the other, and the northern countries could also roughly understand each other's languages because of their frequent contacts.
Although Feng Zhirong's explanation made King Qinghe frown and nod, King Jing still looked unconvinced. Feng Zhirong naturally knew that her explanation was also far-fetched, after all, how could the occasional small talk begged by the children compare to the hard work of the students who were selected to attend classes in the Siyi Pavilion in the Guozi Prison?
But Feng Zhirong didn't continue to explain, saving more and more black.
Or, it's dark enough anyway, and it's useless to talk about it.
She knows this contemporary superstition, and she still believes in fate and even ghosts and gods, and the law of Daye even has punishments specially tailored for witches and gossips, so for the fact that she has a complete memory of her past life, if she can pretend to be a dream or other remarks, it may still make sense, but once she tells such a secret, she always thinks that she may no longer be trusted by King Jing, but can only be tied to his side as a competent tool forever......
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little frightened and remorseful, but at the same time, she was a little lucky.
Feng Zhirong knew very well that his relationship with King Jing was not strong, and that he was just a rare person to whom he was interestedβalthough this was a good start, it could not bear to be tormented.
Just as Feng Zhirong was thinking wildly, King Qinghe took the lead in breaking the silence and said, "You...... Where did you learn? β
"I don't know." Feng Zhirong paused for a moment before saying, "Where do you learn?" She knew that the languages of the northern tribes were almost equal to those of later generations, but she did not know whether there were any individual differences.
King Qinghe paused for a while, as if he was thinking about something, and then opened his mouth to greet a few words of daily greeting in Xiantuo, and Feng Zhirong also replied fluently.
King Qinghe listened to this, picked up the book in his hand and turned a few pages at will, using the content as a topic, and then asking a few more words as a test, all of which were answered by Feng Zhirong one by one.
The two went back and forth like this for a while, and then King Qinghe closed the book and said to King Jing: "Even if you throw this girl to Xiantuo now, I'm afraid she can live happily!" β
King Jing's face was always a little heavy, but he still spoke: "Where did your intelligence come from?" β
Feng Zhirong smiled calmly, and replied from the memory of her previous life: "I don't know, I have the ability to never forget and recite when I was a child, otherwise my grandfather would not have taken me with me." β
Mentioning Feng Xu seemed to be a very useful method, King Jing immediately relieved his eyebrows and said, "Feng Zhuguo has never told me about your ability. β
Feng Zhirong showed a calm expression and said with a smile: "The prince and grandfather have not been together for a long time, and they think that they talk about state affairs a lot, how can they mention me!" β
King Jing did not deny it, but turned his head to look at King Qinghe and said: "If you don't mind, come and grind the language of the northern country with her at this time of day, the Siyi Pavilion is overkill for you, just deal with it." β
King Qinghe smiled bitterly and said, "The work of the Siyi Pavilion was pointed out to me by His Majesty, how can I deal with it?" β
"Could it be that those old scholars in the Guozi Prison were raised to eat white food?" King Jing frowned and said, "You have been there for five years in vain since you entered school at the age of twelve, and you have all gone from being a student to a student, and some of those old men have been staying for more than thirty or fifty years, so let them go!" β
