Shi Lidie looked at Shen Yanxi like this, sighed, and took the initiative to hug him:

"I have thought of the method you mentioned, but it doesn't work."

Shen Yanxi asked stubbornly:

"why?"

Shi Lidie explained it to him one by one:

"First, although you can hide and not go out, you can't hide from people forever."

"There are servants in the Princess's mansion. If you go out of your room for some fresh air, you are in danger of being seen. This way, the fact that you have not changed your appearance will no longer be a secret."

"Although the servants in the Princess's Mansion are very loyal, no one dares to bet on their hearts. What if they leak the secret? Ten years, not ten days. If you were asked to stay in a certain place for a long time, how could you bear it?

"Secondly, there is not much merit left to be collected in the Great Yin Dynasty. Even if you stay for another ten years, the merit we earn will not be enough to support the two of us to go to the modern era together."

"You should know that before you showed up, I had already done a lot of things, promoting the unification of the Central Plains, improving the status of women, and ensuring that all the people in the world had enough food to eat. Each and every one of these things was a great deed to save the world."

"Unless I encounter something big that can turn the tide in the next ten years, the speed at which I accumulate merits will not be able to catch up with the previous years."

"So, if you want to accumulate enough energy for two people to travel through time, it is almost impossible."

"Third, I can't go at the same time as you."

"You are wearing clothes. If I send you back, it means you disappear from this world. If I were here, I could still conceal your whereabouts and not let people suspect you."

"But if I leave at the same time, our secret will be gone, and it may cause a big mess, so I can only stay here and die of old age."

Don't underestimate the ancient people's desire to explore.

If she and Shen Yanxi disappeared at the same time, there would definitely be smart people who would find out their origins. Maybe someone would do a lot of crazy things in order to go to another world.

These are what Shi Lidie doesn't want to see.

She had put in so much effort and paid so much price to develop the Dayin Dynasty into a prosperous one. She did not want the country to fall into chaos due to some inexplicable reasons.

She hopes that this country can continue along the current development trend from generation to generation.

After hearing what Shi Lidie said, Shen Yanxi fell silent for a moment.

He really didn't want to be separated from the one he loved, but she had explained the situation so clearly and in detail that it seemed that he shouldn't stay.

If he goes back now, he will only lose the opportunity to be with his beloved, but he will fulfill the wishes of everyone else.

It seems that going back is an inevitable choice.

"Is there really no other way?" Shen Yanxi asked, "Could it be that we can only be separated from each other in this time and space and never see each other again?"

"Maybe not." Shi Lidie looked at his sad expression and spoke lightly.

When Shen Yanxi heard these three words, he raised his head and asked with sparkling eyes:

"What do you mean by maybe? Even if I leave now, we will still have a chance to meet again in the future, right? Tell me what else you have in mind!"

Shi Lidie was silent for a moment, sorted out her thoughts, and said:

"The system said that after sending you away, it will let me stay in this world until I die of old age. After I finish this life, if I can accumulate enough merit and energy, it will send me to the modern era."

"Of course, it sent back my younger self. In this case, it not only had to cross space, but also reverse time. The merit and energy required were twice as much as they are now."

When Shen Yanxi heard this, he immediately became anxious:

"Didn't you say that the merits that the Great Yin Dynasty can accumulate are limited? It's not even enough to bring one more person through, so how can we accumulate twice as much? This is simply an impossible task."

"Don't be impatient, just listen to me." Shi Lidie said, "The system also said that it needs merit and faith to replenish energy, but it didn't say that it must be from me."

Shen Yanxi immediately understood:

"That is to say, my merits and beliefs are OK, and so are others'!"

"In ancient times, there were many people who liked you and supported you. In modern times, there are also many people who admire you and care about you. If I can find those people who know you and let them accumulate merits and faith together, won't it be much faster?"

Shi Lidie smiled and nodded:

"Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to say. Although I'm not sure whether this plan can go smoothly, but at least there is hope, isn't it?"

"Maybe one or two years, maybe three or five years. Anyway, the speed of time in the two worlds is different. Maybe after you go back, I will appear in a few years."

Hope ignited in Shen Yanxi's heart.

That would be great if that were true.

He can afford to wait for one or two years, or even ten or eight years. After all, he is still young. He will definitely wait for Shi Lidie to return to modern society within his lifetime.

"You must come back, I will always wait for you." Shen Yanxi said to Shi Lidie.

"Don't worry." Shi Lidie nodded.

It is an inevitable choice for Shen Yanxi to return to the modern era and accumulate double merits again. For Shi Lidie, this is already the best outcome.

"When do you plan to send me away?" Shen Yanxi asked.

"Just in the next two days, I'll make arrangements." Shi Lidie said, "We can't just say a good person is gone. In order not to arouse suspicion, we still have to do what we should do."

"Do you have a plan?" Shen Yanxi asked.

Shi Lidie nodded slightly and said:

"We are now in Changyuan County. The farmers in this place are extremely poor because they have no land. All the land has been taken away by the gentry and aristocratic families. If the common people want to farm, they can only become tenants of the rich."

"But the rich collect high rents, and the common people work hard all year round, but still can't get enough to eat or wear warm clothes. They can only suffer for themselves and enrich others."

"So I'm thinking, if we want to develop agriculture in this area and improve people's livelihood, we must first rectify this chaos of land enclosure. It's not uncommon in our history to beat the local tyrants and divide up the land."

"But I don't plan to use too formal means. I plan to give them a divine punishment."

Shen Yanxi couldn't help but smile as he watched Shi Lidie talking.

This is the kind of girl he likes, smart and excellent, independent and sober, resourceful and strategic, and she applies what she has learned in the past very well in this world.

Although she had the assistance of the system and it provided her with a lot of help, the brain was hers. The development of the fiefdom and everything that the Dayin Dynasty had today were all due to her own good management.

As expected, it’s Shi Lidie.

"Just tell me what you need from me," Shen Yanxi said.

"Don't worry, you are the protagonist in this scene." Shi Lidie smiled.
