Your Royal Highness is From a Thousand Years Ago
Chapter 4: democracy
No one you know.
Shen Yanbing was not surprised.
She had never heard of any dynasty, nor had she heard of a dynasty surnamed Li. The characters that the princess had contacted wanted to be different from today's history.
Liming Yue was silent, thought about it, and said, "Your dynasty is unheard of."
Shen Yanbing was speechless, somehow she could truly understand.
Without waiting for her to speak, the princess was bold and couldn't help confirming again: "Is there really no majesty now?"
"..." Shen Yanbing's smile calmed down, cleared his throat, and solemnly explained to her: "The feudal monarchy has long been abolished, and the emperors and queens are all things of the old society. Now our country is called China, a democratic republic, and everyone is home. Call the shots."
Limingyue opened her mouth, she could only understand a few words, "...Democracy?"
Shen Yanbing felt a headache, and it was very difficult to clarify this concept with a former member of the ruling class.
After all, thousands of years ago, the feudal system was also considered an advanced system.
Shen Yanbing lay on the wicker chair on the balcony, "I will explain it to you slowly in the future. First remember, everyone is equal, and there is no emperor."
After speaking, she saw the other person still standing behind the floor-to-ceiling windows in the room, "Why are you so far away?"
Limingyue is a little nervous. She can already see the surrounding scene when she is standing here-there are many buildings much higher than the palace buildings and the pagoda temple. She herself is almost standing on a high place in the air, not daring to move forward at all. .
This place is even more exaggerated than she thought-the house is not built on the ground!
Shen Yanbing vaguely guessed the other party's thoughts, and chuckled, "I'm so courageous?"
Limingyue saw the dangling on the left and right sides, her face was stiff, her hands trembled, and she always felt that she was about to collapse while standing on the protruding balcony.
The unseen princess couldn't listen to the excitement, so she plucked up the courage to take a step forward.
The summer breeze in the morning was quite warm, and the rain stains from last night still remained a little bit. Looking down, the leaves and shrubs in the community were bright and green.
"It's so tall." She stubbornly leaned out and walked cautiously. There were obviously a few steps away from the guardrail, her straight and dignified posture arched slightly.
The tiled floor was still a bit slippery, Liming Yue wore unaccustomed sandals and slippers, and the sole slipped and almost fell—
Shen Yanbing stood up to support her arm and pulled her up, who was almost sitting on the ground.
It was probably because of the damp surroundings. Liming Yue felt that the opponent's hand was very cool. She stood firm and quickly released her hand.
"Be careful." Shen Yanbing sighed.
Limingyue nodded embarrassedly: "Thank you."
Almost falling once did not discourage the princess, but instead left a shadow on the balcony more comfortably.
Not Princess Jiaojiao, Shen Yanbing was a little relieved.
"Do modern people live in such small boxes?" Limingyue suddenly raised her head and asked if she didn't understand, "Just like you?"
"...Cough." Shen Yanbing felt that he was hurt. From this perspective, the apartment houses one after another are really like boxes-but this is the treatment that modern people can only get when they work hard!
The residential area where Shen Yanbing lives is already considered to be the upper middle level of Bincheng.
"This is a city. This kind of residential apartment building is very common." Shen Yanbing couldn't help but sacrificed the classic quotation, "You will gradually understand later."
Limingyue nodded, sincerely: "I will learn it seriously."
Shen Yanbing raised his eyebrows, went into the house and turned on the TV, carefully selected a historical documentary with a good reputation, prepared paper and pen for her, and smiled: "Come and learn."
Liming Yue nodded ignorantly, holding a gel pen somehow to start, Shen Yanbing demonstrated the posture of holding the pen, Liming Yue learned quickly, but still asked: "Is there a writing brush?"
She was not ashamed to say that she was not used to paper either.
Thanks to the gift of the master of history professor, Shen Yanbing started calligraphy in elementary school, and the family really prepared a brush pad on rice paper.
"It's only a pen for writing big characters. It's not suitable." Shen Yanbing hasn't practiced calligraphy for a long time. "Try using a gel pen. Sooner or later you have to get used to it."
Limingyue is a bit lost, but it should be "good."
"I'll buy you a few hard pens later." Shen Yanbing said to buy as soon as he bought, and placed the order online together with the promise he had previously promised.
—Wait, I haven't called the police yet.
Shen Yanbing couldn't help sinking into contemplation. While complaining that beauty was harmful, he comforted himself that he could use the other party as a subject to live history.
Liming Yue's beautiful eyes were staring curiously at her who was distracted.
"Nothing..." Shen Yanbing comforted herself that she was doing good deeds-the little girl had no survivability when she went out.
The TV documentary broadcasts the general history of ancient times. From the establishment of the Xia Dynasty to the establishment of China for thousands of years, more than twenty episodes are enough for the princess to learn and digest for a while.
"This is the remote control, which controls the TV. If you don't understand it, press Pause and ask me. Press this button to go back and see the previous content. Do you understand?"
Limingyue signaled to understand, holding the black gel pen awkwardly, facing the LCD screen for a few seconds to pause, trying to identify the subtitles under the commentary, and transcribe them bit by bit.
When she finished watching an episode in this way at 0.5 times the speed, she had already memorized a lot of vocabulary on the paper, neatly arranged, and there were questions about using Jingchao traditional characters.
-A very good student.
Completely cute, Shen Yanbing looked at the fascinating Liming Moon without leaving a trace, she was a little surprised by the opponent's concentration and memory.
She had been using her laptop to check information and paused the documentary. She left the sofa and sat in front of Limingyue. Looking at the notes and questions on the coffee table, she began to explain one by one.
To be honest, Shen Yanbing has never been so active as a teacher in school, nor has he been so tired.
Over the millennium, from a feudal dynasty to a democratic society, it is not only a span of time, but also a quantum leap in the accumulation of qualitative changes in countless technologies, in which the ideological gap is far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
Fortunately, Liming Yue is a person who is willing to accept new ideas, rather than a decadent and unshakable noble elm bump.
"You learned quickly." Shen Yanbing praised her.
Limingyue couldn't help but rejoice, revealing a shallow pear vortex, modestly: "I still have a lot of things that I don't know."
Shen Yanbing smiled and teased her deliberately, "Yes, just for the theoretical knowledge reserve, history, Chinese, politics, foreign languages, geography, mathematics, physics...you still have to learn."
Although Liming Yue didn't understand her well, it didn't prevent her from being surprised: "So much."
Shen Yanbing was happy from the heart: "It's more than that, you have to work hard."
Her Royal Highness showed a melancholy expression, and Shen Yanbing gently squeezed her cheek in confusion.
"you…"
Shen Yanbing quickly stopped, with a natural expression: "What?"
Limingyue was forced to withdraw her words, and suddenly asked: "How should I call you?"
"This." Shen Yanbing really didn't think about it, "whatever, can you call me teacher?"
Limingyue still looked at her.
Shen Yanbing remembered something, took a gel pen, and wrote his name on the white paper stroke by stroke.
Limingyue nodded and read the words on the paper: "Shen, Yan, Bing."
After speaking, she raised her head for confirmation, and Shen Yanbing nodded helplessly.
Limingyue wrote her name on the white paper: "Limingyue"
Shen Yanbing pronounced these three words in standard Mandarin.
Liming Yue paused and suddenly smiled.
Like the brilliant sun after rain, like the dim light refracted by the dew on the leaves.
The days seem to pass very quickly when they are fresh.
When Shen Yanbing noticed the time, it was almost noon.
Her three meals are always random, and they are settled in the cafeteria when she is at school. Other times, they are either quick-frozen food or takeaway.
No fresh ingredients were prepared at home, so she ordered takeout as usual, got up and cut a plate of ice watermelon.
Limingyue watched the documentary tirelessly and tried to write awkwardly with a gel pen.
The indoor temperature was suitable, and Shen Yanbing put the watermelon and fork in front of each other and paused the TV.
"Watch your eyes rest."
Limingyue blinked, and seemed to feel a bit dry and tired, and nodded to look at the red fruit in front of her, "What is this?"
Shen Yanbing picked up a piece of ice and put it in his mouth, took a pen in the icy sweet juice, and wrote the word "watermelon" on the paper as he read it.
Liming Yue learned everything, forking up a piece and biting it carefully, his eyes shone, and he was quickly conquered by this refreshing and greasy fruit.
"The black seeds are the seeds, you have to spit them out." Shen Yanbing added, smiling, "Now there are many kinds of fruits, taste them slowly."
Limingyue nodded slowly, holding back the joy of the corner of her mouth, and then asked after a while: "Can these people eat it?"
"Of course." Shen Yanbing folded his hands on his chin, "It's just that some are more expensive and eat less. But as long as you want to eat, you can still eat it."
The little princess was a little surprised when she heard this, and said seriously: "In Jingchao, even in the palace, melons and fruits have to be distributed."
Liming Yue looked worried: "Many ordinary people just barely satisfy their hunger."
Shen Yanbing was surprised that the other party actually cared about this: "You are quite clear? I thought you were just a princess who doesn't care about the world."
Limingyue's face was reddened: "Before I was fourteen, I lived outside the palace."
It turned out to be a folk princess.
Shen Yanbing didn't delve into it, but casually asked her what she usually did.
"Practicing calligraphy, reading, painting, horse riding, archery, well, do whatever you want."
"Life is quite rich." Shen Yanbing sighed and glanced at her. "It seems that your Jingchao is quite tolerant to women."
Liming Yue didn't think there was anything wrong with this. Shen Yanbing simply explained: "You will understand after you see the documentary. The feudal society goes backwards, and the restraint on women has reached a cruel degree."
She randomly cited a few examples of female virtues, and Liming Yue was taken aback when she heard: "Although Jing Chao has a lot of demands on women, it is not so harsh."
She thought of her wanton and reckless sister who remarried three times. If she was placed in the next dynasty, she would definitely be pierced in the backbone.
Liming Yue has always avoided letting herself think about the past and miss Jing Chao.
Although I was curious about why it developed like this after a millennium, I have been repressed and did not take the initiative to intervene.
The feeling of the new world she came to was very complicated. Although Jing Chao didn't have these magical things, she was the hometown where she had lived for 19 years after all.
But the documentary she watched today said that all feudal dynasties will eventually be destroyed.
She seemed to see the broken "Jing" flag under the Li family's surname, the bloodstains of the long skirts on the palace, and the withered houses in the mountains and plains.
She was shocked.
