"Who are you? Why did you come to our village?"
The little girl in the lead spoke in a stiff and elegant language.
She had slightly dark skin, slightly flat features, was barefoot, and wore some silver ornaments on her body, which made tinkling sounds whenever she moved.
The little girl is young, but very calm.
Just by looking at her aura and attire, you can tell that she is the leader of this group.
Gu Qingcheng remained calm and put the sword in his hand back into the scabbard.
"I'm Gu Qing!"
Gu Qingcheng spoke concisely and directly stated her identity.
She was testing to see if this foreign girl who could speak the elegant language of the Southern Dynasties had really seen the world.
"Gu? You, you are from the Gu family's Wu Fort in Luozhou?"
You know what, this little girl actually knew it.
She even knew, "Wujun Gu family? That famous aristocratic family?"
Gu Qingcheng smiled. This little girl must have been educated and received cultural education from the Celestial Empire.
"I wouldn't dare! I am indeed from the Gu family of Wu Commandery! May I ask your surname, young lady?"
Gu Qingcheng asked politely.
Gu Qingcheng is a true noble lady from aristocratic family. She will not look down on the "weak" just because of her background, knowledge, etc.
For example, in ancient times, many nobles who claimed to be orthodox looked down on the uncivilized barbarians.
I always feel that the other person is a savage, just like a monkey in the mountains.
But Gu Qingcheng doesn’t!
She is already noble enough and has reached the top, so she has no need to improve herself by belittling others.
In her eyes, all the people in the world are her people!
The Han people are!
The same goes for the so-called barbarians such as the Li people and the Liao people!
Gu Qingcheng is completely in the mentality of a superior.
Afterwards, she bound to the system and entered various novel worlds.
Gu Qingcheng came into contact with the idea of great unification in later generations, and she became more and more determined in this idea.
As long as you live on this land and identify with the culture and ideas of the Celestial Empire, you are one of us!
"My name is Li Mingzhu, and I'm the daughter of the chief of the Li tribe!"
Li Mingzhu felt Gu Qingcheng's kindness and was very surprised.
As the daughter of a tribal chief, Li Mingzhu not only saw the world, but also studied in the official school in the state capital.
In the words of the Luozhou governor, this is called "enlightenment."
To be honest, Li Mingzhu doesn't like the word "enlightenment", as if she and her people are inferior.
However, Li Mingzhu did learn a lot in the official school.
She learned the elegant language (official language) of the Southern Dynasties, and also learned those beautiful and gorgeous fu poems. She also knew that the distant capital city had wealth and prosperity that she could not imagine.
Fine clothes and gallant horses! Aristocratic and elegant family!
Li Mingzhu yearned to go to Jiankang and experience the so-called wealthy city for herself.
Unfortunately, her mother was ill, and the Li tribe could not be without a leader.
As the next chief, Li Mingzhu cannot abandon his own stronghold!
Li tribe? Chief?
Gu Qingcheng knew that some mountain tribes still maintained the tradition of matriarchy.
That is, women are the leaders!
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why some scholars look down on the barbarians - the world is upside down! The hen crows at dawn! They have no knowledge of etiquette and morality!
But Gu Qingcheng likes it very much!
What happened to the woman?
As long as you have outstanding abilities, you can become a leader, or even—
“It turns out to be the Li family’s pearl!”
Gu Qingcheng smiled sweetly and was very kind.
After a systematic improvement, her appearance has reached 77 points.
This is a number that goes beyond elegance.
In addition to her young age and good temperament, Gu Qingcheng is a dazzling little beauty.
Li Mingzhu's eyes couldn't help but light up: What a beautiful and elegant young lady from a noble family.
In addition to her appearance and temperament, what made Li Mingzhu happy was Gu Qingcheng's attitude towards her.
They do not have the arrogance of the Chinese, nor the arrogance and contempt that comes from status and knowledge.
From Gu Qingcheng, Limingzhu felt a breath called "equality".
This made Li Mingzhu very satisfied.
She doesn't need respect, fear, etc. from strangers, she just wants to be treated equally.
They are the Slang people, not monkeys from the mountains. They are human beings just like the people living down the mountain!
Moreover, the young lady not only treated her equally, but also praised her.
The pearl of the Li family!
Hehe, yes, when my mother named her, she thought she was a pearl of their Li tribe.
Dawn Pearl is her name, and it is also the expectation of her mother and the tribe for her.
Now, when the four words "Pearl of the Li Family" came out of the mouth of this little noble lady, she inexplicably felt that she was respected!
"You are also the jewel of the Gu family!"
Limingzhu has the straightforwardness and simplicity of a mountain person!
When she was praised, she would not say "thank you" modestly like other little girls.
Li Mingzhu accepted the other party's compliment calmly and said politely: Hey, you are not bad either.
Gu Qingcheng smiled again. She liked such a frank little girl.
After some greetings, the two little girls, who were three or four years apart in age, became friends.
Li Mingzhu said, "This wild sugarcane forest has always belonged to our Li tribe!"
However, the Li tribe itself did not obey the management of the Luozhou government, and their land was not included in the government's fish scale book.
The interests of the Li tribe will not be protected by the government!
Of course, the Li tribe does not need government protection.
They have young and strong people and sufficient military force to protect their homes!
Gu Qingcheng: ...No wonder the government only asked for a hundred strings of cash and let her take away this piece of forest.
