Chapter 11 All are equal

The night is getting deeper.

Lin Luo was holding a mattress in one hand and a quilt in the other, and Jiang Li was carrying a plastic bag containing daily necessities and followed beside him.

After stepping out of the supermarket gate, her footsteps paused, and at this time, late at night, the scenery of the city was even more gorgeous, and the number of pedestrians on the road did not decrease at all.

"Chang'an is the capital today?"

"No, it's the same as the status in Daqi, it's a provincial capital, the seat of a state."

"With the prosperity of this place, it is only the seat of a state?"

"Shocked? Unbelievable? ”

Lin Luo grinned, "Where is this, a second-tier city, or a suburb, I'll lead you when I turn around..."

He originally wanted to say that he would take you to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, but considering his economic situation and the fact that the emperor did not have an ID card, he changed his words again:

"I'll show you the pictures of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, where is the real prosperity."

Jiang Li didn't know what place was in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, she looked around, and felt that the prosperity of this place was beyond her imagination, flashing neon lights, vehicles speeding by on the road, rows of high-rise buildings....

If this is just the seat of a state, or a suburb, then what should the so-called truly prosperous Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou look like?

What is the capital of Daqi?

She asked herself, and she remembered the plate of fried noodles in her mind, which was just a daily meal for the people in the future, and it was very common.

And the people of Daqi... …… After more than ten years of sleepless governance, it is just enough to eat a full meal.

"When I was in Daqi, I had your assistance, and for more than ten years, Daqi has been an unprecedented prosperous era, and the people have lived a good life of prosperity.

But even so, when I read the history books, I felt that compared with more than a thousand years ago, there was not much difference between Daqi.

But 1,400 years later, the world is like this.

My Great Qi... Compared with the future after a thousand years, my Great Qi is like a cloud and mud. ”

Jiang Li looked at the night scene under this sky, his eyes showed awe, confusion, dazedness, and helplessness....

The same years passed, and 1,400 years went forward, and it was the Zhou Dynasty.

According to the records in the history books, although the Great Qi was much more prosperous and powerful than the Great Zhou, it was still at an acceptable level.

At least Jiang Li is sure that if she is a person from the Zhou Dynasty and suddenly crosses over to Daqi, she will be at a loss and at a loss, but there is nothing beyond her cognition, so that she can't understand it and can't figure it out.

But 1,400 years later, in the future, she seemed to have come to the legendary heavenly realm in a trance.

The lights on the road, the tall buildings on both sides, and the plaques of the shops are obviously not flames, but they can emit bright light.

The iron box speeding on the street seems to be called a car, and the four wheels are indeed like a car, but there are no horses to pull it, but it can run fast.

There is also a small square box called a mobile phone, which seems to be small, but it can be used to take pictures and portraits, and can store silver and money in it.

In just one day, she was exposed to everything beyond her knowledge.

She ascended to the throne at a young age, and she was conceited and intelligent, but she couldn't even think of how she did it.

The future world is too treacherous, although she behaves lightly, but her heart is extremely dazed and frightened.

Fortunately, in this strange world, she is not completely unfamiliar, at least, the man next to her is her Lin companion.

Although this person's attitude is not as good as before, he no longer takes her seriously.

But Jiang Li could only let go of the depression in his heart and followed him closely.

In this bizarre future world, with this person, she will not be alone in a foreign land as a stranger, and will not be overwhelmed by a deep sense of loneliness.

At the same time, you can feel a rare sense of peace of mind.

"I don't know what dynasty and generation it is today, and who is in power? Comparing the prosperity of the future world governance with it, I.... I feel like a faint gentleman. ”

Jiang Li sighed softly, his voice was very soft, but he couldn't hide the admiration and loneliness in his words.

As an emperor who created the prosperous era of Great Qi, she thought that she could be called a Ming monarch of the previous generation, but after seeing the modern era, she was hit by a complete body.

"You don't have to be like this, the future you see now is just the development of the past two hundred years.

If Your Majesty had traveled back two hundred years ago, the world at that time would be no different from Great Qi, no, it would not have been as good as Great Qi at that time.

That is to say, in the same future, although Daqi is not as good as 1,400 years later, it is more than 1,200 years later.

With this achievement, Your Majesty is proud enough, and there is no need to be arrogant, let alone faint. ”

“.......”

After hearing this, Jiang Li opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he fell into silence, but he unconsciously squeezed the handle of the plastic bag in his hand, which is considered .... Comfort?

It would be better if it was gradual, but in just one or two hundred years, the world has become like this, and she finds it even more difficult to accept.

One or two hundred years ago, it was not as good as Daqi, but one or two hundred years later, it became like this.

As she understood it, a decaying dynasty was overthrown, and a new one was established.

When the dynasty was first established, it was not able to catch up with the Great Qi, or it was similar to the Great Qi, and in one or two hundred years, generation after generation of emperors worked hard to govern the world into this scene that she couldn't understand....

So, what are the roles of the emperors of this dynasty today?

Could it be that all the ancient kings, the ancient saint kings... No, even if it is the Eternal Monarch and the Eternal Saint King, it is not like this.

Seeing that she was silent, Lin Luo also realized that his comfort had the opposite effect, and he tried to remedy it, "Oh, there is one more thing I forgot to say, modern society is not a dynasty, and there is no emperor.

The reason why the world has developed like this cannot be entirely attributed to man-made governance, but if it is to be said correctly, it should be the transformation of the ideology of the entire world.

During the Industrial Revolution, human beings recognized the various elements of nature and began to use these elements, and then through the catalysis of war, ushered in the explosion of science and technology, and then digitization, informatization..."

The words were full of all kinds of empty words, not to mention Jiang Li, even Lin Luo himself didn't quite understand.

Human civilization has almost stagnated for 5,000 years, but in just one or two hundred years, it has directly entered the information age, which is a mystery in itself.

And he said a lot, and Jiang Li was also keenly aware of the key point, "There is no emperor? How can the world be governed without an emperor? ”

"Who stipulated that the emperor must be needed to govern the world, Qin Shi Huang?"

“.....”

Jiang Li was stopped by these words, and Lin Luo didn't intend to argue with her about this, so he said:

"Why the world has developed like this, what rules will the world have in the future, and what are the precautions, although I would like to explain it to you clearly, but unfortunately, these problems are too complicated, not something that can be said clearly in a few words, you listen more and watch more in the future, and slowly understand.

In short, it's a... We habitually call it a place of modern society, and then everyone is equal here...."

"Equality for all?"

"Incredible, isn't it? But it's true that everyone is equal here, at least on the surface. ”

“.....”

Jiang Li didn't answer for the time being, stared at him again and again, and finally asked, "Because everyone is equal here, your attitude towards me will be very different from when you were in Daqi?" ”
