Han Changsheng thought about it in embarrassment, it seems to be the same reason?

What's more, it's his own people who are knowledgeable, and it seems that he doesn't suffer a loss, so this kid was speechless.

Xie Zhao lowered his head and laughed a few times, raised his head and said with a smile:

"Alright, I'm not going to tease you. In fact, you don't know what this matter is, not because you are ignorant, but because you don't understand the division of labor and powers of the nine castes of the Western Xinjiang Dynasty. ”

By this time they had found a secluded tea house on the side of the street and sat down.

The three of them all looked at Xie Zhao quietly, waiting for her to explain in detail.

Xie Zhao poured himself a cup of tea, then held the special glass cup made in Western Xinjiang, raised it above his head to face the sun, and carefully looked at the beautiful brilliance reflected by the utensils in the sun, and then said:

"See? This is the world-famous glass cup in Western Xinjiang, very beautiful, right?

In fact, there is a more precious jade as the base material, and the production process is extremely complicated, called 'moonshine cup'.

And these are all from the Qin luxury clan, which ranks ninth among the nine high castes in Western Xinjiang.

Among the nine high castes of the Xulu Dynasty, the handicraft industry in the entire western Xinjiang was controlled by the Qinhao clan. ”

The more Han Changsheng listened, the more confused he became, and he was ashamed to ask in doubt:

"Why do I get more confused the more I listen? Then what does this Qin Hao clan have to do with us, and with the road guide of the 'Easy Medical Saint' in your hand? ”

Xie Zhao turned his head with a smile, looked at him and said:

"Because the nine high castes of the Western Xinjiang Dynasty are in charge of the clothing, food, housing and transportation of everyone on the entire Western Xinjiang territory, they have always been a spire-like existence in the Western Dynasty."

She put down the teacup and was very patient to popularize science for everyone.

"In the Xuan Dynasty, the chief of the nine high castes was the Hui clan, and the Hui clan was the ruling class of the entire Xuan Dynasty;

As for the Yada An, the second of the nine high castes, they were in charge of the sacrifices of the entire dynasty;

The third in line was the Turga clan, a high-caste man who mostly rose to the court and became scholars and officials of the Imperial Court;

As for the Pinomon clan, it ranked fourth among the nine high castes in Western Xinjiang, and was the head of the imperial samurai class.

and the fifth is the Yi Min Luo clan, from which all the healers of the Xuan Dynasty came from, among which the one who is best at refining pills and poisons is also known as the 'Master of Medicine';

As for the sixth of the nine highest-caste bells, also known as the Kelva clan, they ruled over the financial power and commercial dealings of the entire western territory.

-- The above six castes are regarded as the top of the nine castes in Western Xinjiang. ”

Xie Zhao looked at Ling He, who was frowning and contemplating, Bo Xu, who suddenly realized, and Han Changsheng, who was stunned, smiled faintly, and continued:

"The Hariyu clan, the seventh of the nine high castes of the Imperial Dynasty, was in charge of the agriculture of the Imperial Dynasty;

The eighth-ranked Hejiashu clan is responsible for leading animal husbandry, and all the camels, horses, cattle and sheep and other large livestock in the western Xinjiang are from the Hejiashu clan;

As for the Qin clan, they were at the bottom of the nine high castes, and they dominated the handicraft industry of the entire dynasty.

- Of course, you should also know that the above three high castes are obviously not as respected as the first six high castes, so they are also called the second class of the nine high castes. ”

When Xie Zhao said this, he was as smart as Ling or already understood.

He was already very smart, but he didn't know why before, and it was only because he didn't know what the nine high castes of the Xuan Dynasty specifically referred to and what they represented.

At this time, Ling He bowed his head lightly and said a word to break Xie Zhao's intentions.

"I see, so you borrowed the path of the 'Carefree Medical Saint' because of the respected status of Chinese medicine practitioners in the Imperial Dynasty, and they are one of the few high castes who can read and write.

Do you want to use the guidance of the Min Doctor Sage to pretend to be a healer from Tianchen in the Southern Dynasty, so that you can get acquainted with the Yi Min Luo clan, which is the fifth of the nine high castes in the local area? ”

Xie Zhao nodded with a smile.

"Not bad. In addition to the nine major castes, the rest of the people in Western Xinjiang are called 'Black Sailuo'.

It is pointless for us to bump around like headless flies among the people of Western Xinjiang and ask the 'Black Sailuo' about things. ”

Bo Xu's understanding of the rich customs and customs of Western Xinjiang is also limited, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but subconsciously ask:

"What is this?"

Xie Zhao said: "'Black Sailuo' means 'dog and horse' in the ancient language, that is, in addition to the nine high-caste clans, the collective name of other people.

Although they did the hardest work in all walks of life under the rule of the nine high castes, they were not even qualified to learn words and techniques. ”

Han Changsheng frowned.

"So miserable? What if the common people's 'black sailors' taught themselves how to write? Wouldn't it be okay? ”

Xie Zhao shook his head slowly, sighed and said:

"This is not going to work, if the 'Black Sailuo' steals the text without authorization, he will be complicit in rebellion in the Xulu Dynasty, and he will be sentenced to a felony of capital punishment.

Moreover, the caste system has been deeply rooted for thousands of years, and there is no superiority between men and women here, only caste superiority and inferiority. ”

Ling or Wen Yan also frowned.

He sighed lightly and said, "Words should be something that everyone has the right to learn, but now there are many restrictions on this in the four realms.

For example, the Xuhan Dynasty in Western Xinjiang did not allow people of the lower castes to enter the school to read and write, and the Tianchen Dynasty of the Southern Dynasty in the past did not allow women to enter the academy."

Ling He sighed: "Fortunately, in these years, under the vigorous promotion of the 'Thousand Years Old Sword Immortal' in the realm of the Southern Dynasties, the women of Tianchen are now like men, and they can freely enter the major academies to study the sage books.

Finally, I don't have to be confined to the inner courtyard anymore, and learn those feminine precepts that are not shallow and old-fashioned. ”

When several people heard what he said, they were all silent, and their hearts were full of emotion.

Bo Xuan took a sip of tea, and then sighed:

"Although I have settled in the Arro Grassland for many years and rarely go south, I have heard more than once about the princess Sword Immortal of your Southern Dynasty, she is indeed a wonderful woman.

I think that she is not very important whether she is a man or a woman, and it is really narrow-minded and humiliating to describe her simply as a woman and a woman.

Not to mention, with her own strength, she has been able to suppress the 'Sword Immortal Tomb' for many years and can't raise her head, so it's not something ordinary people can do. ”

Ling Or nodded slowly, it was hard not to agree.

"Yes, what's even more remarkable is that the achievements of the 'Chitose Sword Immortal' are not only her unique achievements in the realm of martial arts, but also her great contributions to the livelihood of the society."

Han Changsheng's face showed a look of longing, he lost his mind slightly, and muttered to himself:

"The Southern Dynasty has her, it's amazing!"
