Xie Yushu's appearance in modern times is about 80% similar to Xie Yushu in the Great Qi Dynasty. So, when she peeked through the crack in the door and was discovered by Xuan Yuanche, he almost instantly jumped out of bed, ran over, and hugged her tightly.

"Yu Shu! You really came?"

That's wonderful!

You have no idea how much I miss you. And how are Eryu and Mother doing?

Did Qingfeng and the others come along?

By the way, how did you get here?

Xuan Yuanche suddenly realized that he had died and inexplicably ended up here, and he suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

"Yes! What brings you here?"

Did you die in the end too? Tianshui, in the end, couldn't be defended?

So how is the Great Qi now?

Xie Yushu was a little dazed by his embrace. After struggling to break free, she heard him ramble on about a bunch of nonsensical things. Just as she was wondering if he was delirious, she heard him mention the Great Qi. Excitedly, Xie Yushu grabbed Xuan Yuanche's arm.

"Young Master Dang, you're talking about the Great Qi? You know about the Great Qi?"

Are you from Daqi?

Can you take me back?

After Xie Yushu asked these questions, Xuan Yuanche was also dumbfounded.

"You're not Xie Yushu?"

"I'm Xie Yushu. Who are you?"

Xuan Yuanche looked at Xie Yushu in front of him. Although her face was very similar and her figure was even similar, she was definitely not the Xie Yushu he knew. If she was not, how would she know about Da Qi?

Xuan Yuanche's mind went blank for a moment, and he unconsciously crossed his arms and circled Xie Yushu several times.

This is definitely not the Xie Yushu he knows. If he dared to go through all this trouble to study her, he would have been attacked by those big feet long ago!

The aura is off, the eyes are off, they're not as lively and sharp as before, and they've lost that confident air of having everything under control. They've even become timid. It's like an old fox and a little white rabbit!

Xie Yushu and Xuan Yuanche took turns looking around and dodging, essentially practicing "Tai Chi" inside the room.

After walking around for a full half hour, Xuan Yuanche finally got tired and pointed to the armchair beside the bed.

"Stop, go sit there, I'll ask you questions and you answer them."

Xie Yushu, feeling scared and frightened, moved to the edge of the chair, sat down on half her bottom, and said nervously...

"Young Master Dang, you, you ask."

Xuan Yuanche sat on the edge of the bed, as if he were a high-ranking official presiding over a case, and asked...

"You're from the Great Qi? Which Great Qi? Where in the Great Qi are you from?"

"So, so it's Daqi?"

Xuanyuan Che was so angry that his head hurt.

"The title of the Great Qi emperor you mentioned?"

"I don't know!"

"Who is the prefect?"

"I don't know!"

"Where is the magistrate? You should know who the magistrate is, shouldn't you?"

"N-I don't know!"

"Then who do you know? Who is the official in charge of you?"

"Village chief, and clan chief, and clan chief!"

"The clan chief was Xie Dafu. Later, I got married. The clan chief on my husband's side was Xiao Zhengde."

That seems to be the name.

Xuanyuan Che asked in disbelief

"Are Xie Baotian and the Lu family your parents? Is Xie Tianqi your brother?"

"You married Xiao Yi, the cripple from Phoenix Mouth?"

Xie Yushu was pleasantly surprised upon hearing this.

"Yes, yes! How did you know? You're from Daqi too, right?"

Do you know my parents and brother?

Are they alright?

"Then who are you in Daqi?"

Xuanyuan Che did not answer, but instead asked sharply in return.

When did you arrive here?

Xie Yushu was startled, but still answered honestly.

"That year there was a severe drought, and I was transferred to Xiao Yi's house. The next day, I went to the mountains to find water. On my way back, my water was stolen, and I was knocked unconscious. When I woke up, I was here."

I was someone Xiao Yi paid a high price to bring back. He sent me back to run errands for him and take care of his son and niece. I don't even know why I suddenly ended up here, and Xie Yujiao even stole my water. What happened to Xiao Yi and his two sons? What if they died of thirst because of the lack of water...?"

This matter weighed heavily on Xie Yushu's heart. She was kind and simple by nature, and ten taels of silver was a huge sum of money for her. It had also saved her family's lives. If she had let Xiao Yi and his two sons die of thirst within a day of marrying into the family, she would have felt guilty for the rest of her life!

Therefore, upon suddenly meeting a fellow villager, the first thing to do was to inquire about the situation of Xiao Yi and his son.

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Che immediately lay down on the bed and muttered to himself.

"I see! I see!"

Considering the beauty and prosperity, freedom and progress of this world, it's no wonder that Xie Yushu is so extraordinary.

Although he knew the source of so many novel ideas in Xie Yushu's mind, Xuan Yuanche did not think that Xie Yushu was cheating by taking advantage of information gaps. Being able to bring many things to Daqi from memory to benefit the people of Daqi was a skill in itself.

Moreover, people have a thousand faces and a thousand changes of heart. Even if they have the same amount of knowledge and the same ability, how they choose to walk the path they want is entirely up to them. The height that Xie Yushu has reached in Daqi is essentially due to her vision and ambition.

Therefore, what fascinates and captivates him is never those external things, but her character and her vigorous and upward spirit!

Although Xuanyuan Che was from ancient times, he wasn't stupid. He knew that no matter how advanced or backward the world was, people were still people, and human nature wouldn't change. He was very curious about what kind of environment could cultivate such an outstanding talent as Xie Yushu, so he suddenly stood up and asked.

"So, what is your role here?"
