back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 834
Ruan Daocheng was stunned for a moment when he heard the word "more treacherous".It stands to reason that his Chinese level is actually quite good, and he did not bring any interpreter with him when he came to Dashun as an envoy this time.Unlike Champa and Chenla, which speak a language close to Tianzhu, even envoys have to bring a translator.Not to mention the social system, which is almost copied from Tianzhu. What kind of caste system is simply incomprehensible.

Ruan Daocheng knew that this surname system was divided into four levels. The first level of Brahmins were mainly monks and nobles, who had the privilege of interpreting religious scriptures and worshiping gods; the second level of Kshatriyas were military and administrative nobles, who had the privilege of collecting various taxes. ; The third level Vaishya is the free civilian class of the Aryans. They are engaged in farming, animal husbandry, fishing, hunting, etc. They have no political privileges and must support the first two levels in the form of donations and taxes; the fourth level Sudra Most of them are conquered aborigines, who are engaged in agriculture, animal husbandry, fishing, hunting and other industries, as well as occupations that were considered lowly at that time.It's no wonder that Champa and Chenla can't beat Cochin, and the people at the bottom have no bright future, so how can they give their lives?Maybe they still eagerly hope that Cochin will come, no matter how bad it is, it won't be worse than it is now, right?

The ancestor of Ruan Daocheng was also a chief of one side, and he belonged to the upper class of Jiaozhi. He not only knew the situation in Champa, Chenla, Danliumei, Lianfeng and other countries, but even spoke the Chinese language of "Gaodashang". , Even if the country was established in the former Li Dynasty, and then the Li Dynasty was established, the habit of speaking Chinese has not changed.

Later, Li Rizun introduced Central Plains Confucianism. Although Ruan Daocheng was not as famous as Pei Jiayou, a scholar of the Wenmingdian, his level of Han culture was considered top-notch among Jiaozhi.

He thinks he communicates with Han people, as long as he does not take the initiative to reveal his identity, others will still say that he is an out-and-out Han Chinese, so there is no need to worry about him.However, Ruan Daocheng, who has passed the eighth level of Chinese, is the first time he has heard of the word "Yue treacherous". I don't know why?

"May I ask Your Majesty, what does the 'more treacherous' refer to?"

Seeing Ruan Daocheng's appearance, Lu Chengqi smiled lightly and said, "The grand master must have heard of the word traitor?"

Ruan Daocheng is actually very knowledgeable, and he has read through the history books of the previous dynasty: "Dashun compiled the history books of the previous dynasty. It is recorded that, 'removing external troubles will make China respectful; punishing traitors will make a gentleman grow." The word traitor, It must have come from here?"

Lu Chengqi nodded, and said: "The grand master is really knowledgeable and talented! Since the grand master knows the origin and meaning of the word internal traitor, and it extends to 'yue treacherous', why doesn't he understand it? After all, we Han people have the right to be enemies. Those who betrayed Dashun even though they were Han Chinese were considered 'traitors', you Annan called yourself Da Viet..."

When Lu Chengqi said this, he deliberately paused, letting Ruan Daocheng realize it by himself.

Ruan Daoguo is indeed a Chinese hand, "knowing the elegance by hearing the strings", this is the little emperor cursing him for infidelity and injustice!
Fortunately, his face is thick enough, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. Although the envoys of the next country are expensive as grand masters, they are also ministers who are entrusted by the court. They can be regarded as under one person and among ten thousand. There is an old saying in China, "A good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a virtuous minister chooses a master to do things." The emperor of the next country committed his own crimes and cannot live. Even if I am a grand teacher, I may not be buried for him Do you want to perish? Dashun is the Kingdom of Heaven and Chaoshang, His Majesty is wise and powerful, and he is in the prime of life, who is better and who is worse, no matter who has eyes, he can tell which one is the Ming Lord..."

Lu Chengqi glanced at him, not caring about his flattery and self-promotion, but lightly sarcastically said: "My Dashun is naturally a good tree, and I am also a wise master, but I think the grand master is not a virtuous minister. Hey? If you are a virtuous minister, why would you abandon your old master when the country is in crisis?"

Ruan Daocheng choked a lot after Lu Chengqi robbed him, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't help but blush.Even Gao Hao, who was listening, couldn't help laughing, and covered his mouth to snigger.It was only after Lu Chengqi glanced at him that he suppressed a smile, which was a big embarrassment for him.

"Your Majesty doesn't know something. The Yue dynasty is full of fish and dragons. If there is no one who knows the root and the bottom, how can it be governed? It should be noted that the Yue dynasty has 24 roads, four mansions, thirteen prefectures, and three villages. Although it is not as smooth as Dashun, it is not small. .Many of the state herdsmen and chiefs are in charge of their own affairs, and even the emperor of the Yue Dynasty can't do anything about it..."

Ruan Daocheng tried his best to show his own value, but Lu Chengqi was unmoved.

Hearing Ruan Daocheng talk about the situation of Cochin like a bamboo tube, Lu Chengqi realized that his understanding of Cochin was still at a very shallow level.

When Ruan Daocheng's voice was dry and hoarse, Lu Chengqi still sipped the tea leisurely, without a trace of emotion: "At that time, the mountain was high and the emperor was far away, and the grand master was the earth emperor, right?"

Hearing Lu Chengqi speak out what was in his heart, Ruan Daocheng was so frightened that he hurriedly said: "The envoys of the next country dare not, if His Majesty allows me to join Dashun, I will definitely do my best to serve His Majesty without any second thoughts ..." But he said in his heart: "This little emperor, isn't he too powerful?"

Little did he know that Lu Chengqi had studied marketing psychology, and understood that if a salesperson tried his best to sell a product, the benefits he wanted would definitely be huge.Although it is not ruled out that there is a suspicion of talking about something, but the specific situation can still be seen from the body language.

Lu Chengqi seemed to be careless, but in fact he had been observing Ruan Daocheng's actions.When he found out that he didn't dare to look at him when he was promoting himself and showing his value, he understood that Ruan Daocheng said so much for himself.Then what good is it for him to sell dog meat under the guise of a sheep?After thinking about it again, I understand.After Dashun killed Li Chao, there was a vacuum in Jiaozhi power.There is a saying that "the sky is high and the emperor is far away". If Ruan Daocheng transformed himself and became the spokesperson of Dashun in Jiaozhi, then he could wear the cloak of an official of Dashun and act as the "Emperor of Earth".

In the face of absolute power, how many people can not be tempted?

Taking a step back, Ruan Daocheng doesn't have such thoughts now, he just wants to save his own life; but when he becomes the Emperor of Jiaozhi, and when his power grows, he will "lose" himself, and he can't wait to turn Jiaozhi into an emperor. into its own territory.

Ambition is slowly formed step by step.

When Lu Chengqi was about to sternly reject Ruan Daocheng, he suddenly had a second thought and said ambiguously: "The Grand Master is worthy of being a Grand Master, who knows Annan so thoroughly. Well, if you can act as an internal response, you can win him for me." In the entire territory of Annan, I might consider letting you be the shepherd of Annan Prefecture!"

Ruan Daocheng was overjoyed, he didn't understand the hidden trap behind Lu Chengqi's words at all, kowtowed repeatedly and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!"
