Tower of Babel

Zhang Cheng explained: I am the superior, and you are also the superior. Which man in a superior position doesn’t want to have three wives and four concubines? What woman doesn’t want to be hugged from left to right? Instead of defending that false noble honor, wouldn't it be better for you to be your queen and me to be my emperor, and we would not interfere with each other and both of us should be free?

Victoria couldn't believe her ears and said in shock: How could you have such an idea? No matter whether you are a noble or a commoner, everyone is equal before death. Carrying on the family line is the bounden duty of every life. Although I am a princess, my lifelong ideal is to support my husband and raise my children. Everyone's youth is short, and no one can afford to waste time! A strong man will broadcast seeds, but a woman's destiny is to find excellent seeds, nurture strong children, and leave her own bloodline inheritance. How can she sacrifice her own foundation to seek the last, like Si Chen? Do all the women on earth like this and call themselves queens?"

Victoria is very confused. The culture of the other world originated from the handover stage between matrilineal and patrilineal lines. The main purpose of sex is reproduction. It is extremely tolerant of three wives and four concubines of scumbag men, or walking marriages, and it also treats women. On the tolerant side, the natal family will not dislike a married girl being abandoned, or returning to her natal family with her mother and child, and will consider it a form of marrying into the family. Once a nephew returns to his natal family with his divorced mother, he will have to change his gender, and he will be regarded as a child from then on. In her natal family, a woman has the autonomy to marry and raise children after returning to her natal family, but in other worlds, the phenomenon of showing off one's pride and taking care of children will never be allowed. Whose children are their children. If a woman cheats on her husband during marriage and asks her husband to raise children for others, that is absolutely unacceptable. It will kill both mother and child. There is also a cruel side to women, that is, they are absolutely not allowed to become prisoners of war, because female prisoners of war and prostitutes have almost the same experience. Victoria is an exception among cases.

And the mother is more valuable than the daughter, and the husband is more valuable than the son. , in another world, in addition to the surname, the mother regards her daughter as her incense successor, and the husband regards his son as his incense successor, and there are two sets of inheritance systems. This kind of inheritance has also appeared on earth, but the female inheritance system finally Towards decline and disappearance, or reduced to a subordinate status, although in some places mothers will still pass on the bottom of the box to their daughters, there is no substantive cultural inheritance. In other worlds, it is completely different, with two inheritance systems for men and women running in parallel.

Zhang Cheng knew little about the culture of other worlds, and could only argue with force at this time:"Yes, because the difference between the earth and this place is that everyone there can live forever. The relationship between men and women is more of a way of intimacy, not for the purpose of passing on the family line.

Victoria said excitedly:"Everyone can live forever?" Is this the kingdom of heaven where you are?"Victoria was particularly envious when she heard that she was immortal.

Zhang Cheng made it up:"No! Our place is not heaven or hell, it is still the world. Everyone is selfish, and women's rights are becoming stronger. They make jokes and control everything. If they are unhappy, they can accuse any man of rape, including their husbands. , it is not difficult to send your husband to prison, so I escaped."

Victoria apologized:"This is really a very unfortunate thing, and I deeply sympathize with it, but a woman from the Diya Dynasty would never do this.. She will definitely abide by the rules of women, care for her husband and raise her children, and even if she is a princess of a country, she is willing to condescend and be with her forever."

Zhang Cheng interrupted Victoria and said:"Okay, let's not talk about this. In short, I am not afraid of war, but I am not willing to commit more crimes. For the sake of peace, I can accept you as my concubine. I can also make you an honorary queen. Second choice First, although you are a princess, please forgive me for not being able to make you the real queen. The reason is that we are not of the same race. You cannot betray your nation and country, and I cannot do the same.

Victoria shook He shook his head and said affectionately:"No! My dear Zhang, you are wrong. In our Zoya continent, marrying a princess from that country is a person from that country. Royal families intermarry with each other, and there is no country where the princess betrays her husband. No matter whether I am a royal concubine or a queen, I will always be loyal to my dear Mist Zhang."

Zhang Chengdao: What you said made me think of Jelena. She loved her country and nation very much. Although I killed her, I have always admired her very much.

Victoria also seemed to have thought of something and explained: Jelena is A domestic slave, and I am a princess, with different backgrounds and different educations. Commoners pay attention to loyalty to the king and serving the country, while kings pay attention to the rise and fall of the family and country. What they practice is the cause and effect of the country. And for this, you must first know where your country is, where is it? This is your home. When a woman marries a chicken, she will marry a dog. Although I am only your princess, you are everything to me. The jade body is fragrant and the autumn waves are secretly sending her away. Victoria takes off her clothes lightly. There is no words for a night.

·············

After a fierce battle and sporadic exchanges of fire, the two got up early the next morning and went about their business.

Today, the entire Annan Mansion is still under martial law. People are panicked. There are sentries everywhere in the streets and alleys, and there are still people patrolling back and forth. Zhang Cheng used drone broadcasts to carry out the work of reassuring the people, telling the reasons for the war and the governance measures obtained after the war. It does not require secondary explanations by literate people, bypassing the barriers of literati and rap poets, and directly facing the masses.

The report stated that the cause of the war was the betrayal of the Michel family and the sneak attack on Shuiyue Village. The capture of Annan Mansion was to punish the Michel family. He also pardoned all the subjects in the territory of the Michel family to surrender and accept the rule of the Tongtian Empire. All officials who were willing to surrender would remain in their posts and all the rules would remain as before.

The common people did not want to care about the rights and wrongs of the Michel family. They were worried about the disasters of war and war, while the powerful people were concerned about whether the new lord would change the old order. Now I feel relieved.

Zhang Cheng adopted the policy of treating his territory and subjects as his own, taking full control and keeping everything as usual. Naturally, they will not launch troops to plunder, let alone massacre the city. The restless mood in Annan Mansion was quickly calmed down. As for yesterday's looting of the brothel, people selectively forgot about it. They robbed everything, as long as they didn't continue to rob.

In fact, many nobles did not want to be loyal to Zhang Cheng. Their prosperity and wealth had nothing to do with Zhang Cheng, but they controlled all kinds of mineral resources, human, material and financial resources, and operated them all with extremely backward production relations and productivity.

Zhang Cheng doesn't want things to be business as usual. It's just a compromise. In fact, he really wants to order robots to quickly take over all the industries in the territory and efficiently transform these resources into his own power. He wants to tell the garbage and moths to go away, but he has no choice but to do so. Without the corresponding talents, there is no way to manage human society. There is no way to deal with the social unrest caused by it. Unless Zhang Cheng is like the Israelis, he carries out large-scale genocide and eliminates the native race, but Zhang Cheng is not that crazy. Everything has to come slowly.
