Chapter 553 Envy and Rejoicing
The feeling of hearing it was different from what Changqing said. Rong Yi was a little surprised. Looking at the way she made gestures on her body, her mind gradually sketched out the appearance of the women's clothing in Chitan Country.

I also heard from her that the Chitan Kingdom controls women much faster than Meng Guosong. Women there can run freely on horseback, and women can also join the army. There is even a famous female general in the Chitan Kingdom who looks exactly like a man. , as strong as an ox, is the most worshiped figure among women.

Hearing this, Rong Yi only thought that this was a huge curiosity. In the Meng Kingdom, it was a sin for a woman who had not left the cabinet to go out and show her face, let alone riding a horse to win glory for the country. That was simply unthinkable. What I dare not think about is that Meng Guoming appears to be a man who takes charge of the outside and a woman who takes charge of the house. In fact, even the woman who is the housekeeper must be dependent on the man.

Many regulations in the Meng Kingdom were mostly set up for women, such as the three obediences and four virtues, and the female precepts, which were all designed to restrain women.

The same is true for the education Rong Yi received since childhood, coupled with the different experiences she had when she was a child.It made her realize that there are three levels of people in this life, and the lowest people are not worthy of standing and talking.

Even though my own lady is the direct daughter of a famous family, she is not immune to the constraints of those secular dogmas.

She thought of Chang's nurturing of her children, and of Changle, the first woman she had ever seen who lived so freely.

Rong Yi said: "In fact, in comparison, Chitan Kingdom is so tolerant to women, which is what I dream of. I don't know how many years it will take for Meng Kingdom to let women live in the sun, like you and Changle."

Looking at Rong Yi's indifferent eyes, Chang Qing said: "Our family is a special case. Both boys and girls in our family are free-range. In fact, you don't know that when I dance my sword outside, in the eyes of others, I What a ridiculous thing. No one can accept a woman who has not left the government to be a chivalrous person on the street, wielding a knife and a gun. They think that is what men should do, and women should learn to be female celebrities at home and marry their husbands. Godson.”

Rong Yi sighed, but then heard her say: "Rong Yi, don't think that Chitan Country is such a good place just because of its tolerance for women. What I just said is that Chitan Country is good, and In my opinion, apart from this, Chitan Country has nothing else worthy of praise."

"how?"

"The men of the Chitan Kingdom are bloodthirsty and ferocious. They are extremely insidious and cunning, whether on the battlefield or in dealing with things. I just told you that the Chitan Kingdom is very tolerant of women, but there is one thing you need to know. Only respecting the powerful, she is the only female general in Chitang Kingdom. Three generations of her ancestors have been famous military generals. In her generation, she is the only daughter and the only child in the family. She inherited the mantle of her ancestors and fathers and embarked on this path. The only female general, but for those at the grassroots level, there is no human rights. The poor will always be poor, and the rich will always be rich."

"..."

"I once heard that in the Chitan Kingdom, there was a famous civil servant who kept many young girls in his backyard. They were all snatched from the people. In short, the peace of the Chitan Kingdom depends on whether you have power in your hands. They They only respect the royal bloodline and the power in their hands. They have no mercy in their hearts, only killing."

"..."

"I heard from my father that during the former Qi Kingdom, envoys went to Chitan Kingdom to exchange supplies. At that time, Chitan Kingdom was still an incomplete country. Several small tribes fought for territory and fought hard. As the only big country, The Qi State came to the aid of the Chitan State and sent a lot of supplies, but the envoy was beaten to death by a reckless man from the Chitan State on the way back. Only after his death did those people know that the envoy was from the Qi State. of."

Hearing this, Rong Yi frowned and said: "Reckless man? Is there no one to care about it?" Changqing shook his head and said: "The public security in Chizhang Country is very poor, no one will care about the people who died on the roadside. Hungry men, they only care about their own interests. After the envoy died, Qi State marched towards Chitan State and took over a piece of Chitan State's land, so this matter was considered over."

Rong Yi was stunned. She looked at her fingernails, took a deep breath, exhaled it for a long time, and said, "I was still envious of the women of Chitan Country just now. I just felt that their lives were easy and happy. But after hearing what you said, I am just glad that I was born in this country. At least my life safety is guaranteed. I really don’t know what kind of barbaric place it is over there. It regards human life as nothing. How can such a country survive? Came down? Now, he can still be an enemy of the Meng State and become a serious concern of the Meng State."

Changqing also sighed and said: "This may be the fate of the Chitan Kingdom. I heard that the current leader of the Chitan Kingdom is a murderous, cold-blooded man. He can regain the surrounding areas in just two years." The small tribe of Chitan quickly established a complete country, and they have some skills. From an ancestor's perspective, the people of Chitan Kingdom are not good at using their brains and are not good at strategy. But in recent years, for some reason, they can occasionally be surprised We were caught off guard, in short, today’s Chitan Kingdom cannot be underestimated.”

Rong Yi nodded, she also felt that such a country would one day fall, because they only live for profit, and those who live for profit will eventually be defeated by profit.

……

Changqing and Rongyi chatted for a while and then left.Jiang Shunxiao came back in the afternoon. He looked at Rong Yi sitting in a daze by the window and went over to scare her.

Rong Yi didn't react much. She was sitting by the window and noticed him coming over from the corner of her eye. She was just thinking about something in her mind and didn't get up to greet him.

Seeing her languid expression, Jiang Shunxiao sat next to her, stretched out his hand to touch her forehead, and said, "You don't have a fever either, why are you so depressed?"

Rong Yi rested her chin on her arm, tilted her head and looked at him, and said: "I asked Changqing today, and she told me what kind of place Chitan Country is. I was just thinking about how you have fought with them all these years. I’ve never suffered a loss.”

Jiang Shunxiao was slightly stunned, he didn't expect it.Rong Yi sat here in a daze, thinking about this problem or thinking about him. For a moment, her heart felt warm.

He said: "There are always unsatisfactory things on the battlefield. The Chitan people are cunning and cunning, and they have always been difficult to deal with. I also suffered losses at their hands, just once. I almost lost my life on the battlefield. "

Hearing this, Rong Yi was frightened. She stared into Jiang Shunxiao's plain eyes and said, "Who is so capable that you almost lost your life on the battlefield? Was it very dangerous at that time? Were you afraid? "

Looking at her nervous eyes, Jiang Shunxiao curled his lips and said with a smile: "I never suffer losses in vain. The person who did the trick was killed by me on the spot. He was a young man from Chitan Kingdom. A very capable general."
