A life of two souls traveling through time

After experiencing the incident last night, Si Yao first realized the pain that Jiang Siyao had felt when she was misunderstood by her roommates at school. Although she had been slandered for no reason in Lianjia Village, she was not as wronged as she is now. Compared with Jiang Siyao's hysterical defense of herself, she was as calm as autumn water on the lake, and she memorized the medical book to divert her attention and relieve her inner depression.

Si Yao was very grateful for what Mr. Sanxiu said to her last night, and she was deeply touched by the package sent by the medicine shop today. A new dress and money for the New Year's Eve. Mr. Da's move was to show that she was still a member of Sanxiu Medicine Shop, and the medical book reminded her not to fall into dissatisfaction. After understanding Mr. Da's intention, Si Yao suddenly became enlightened, dispelled the remaining haze in her heart, and put all her thoughts on the medical book.

Xiaolu was not punished by the prince, but was ordered to continue to return to Sanxiu Pharmacy. Mr. Fan had just returned from the military camp and had not had time to drink tea when he was called into the inner room by Yan Zong:

"So Miss Si Yao's last name is Jiang. The date markings on it are quite strange... It's a resident ID card of the Peaceful Republic..." Mr. Fan flipped through the white card in his hand again and again, his face full of confusion.

"Not to mention the country listed here, even the material of this business card is extremely mysterious." Before Mr. Fan finished reading, Yan Zong said with a serious face.

"Yes, it's unheard of and unseen. Moreover, the portrait on it is exactly the same as the real person, as if it was taken in a mirror. It's really rare." Mr. Fan looked at the white card in his hand as if he had found a treasure and exclaimed again and again.

"Sir, do you think the person in this portrait is Si Yao?" Yan Zong continued to ask.

"Hmm? Doesn't this look like Miss Si Yao?" Mr. Fan looked at the portrait on the white card again and asked in confusion.

"She looks like her, but her spirit is not like her, so, it is her and not her." Yan Zong shook his head seriously.

"I didn't expect that Your Highness is so observant of Miss Si Yao." Mr. Fan smiled meaningfully at Yan Zong.

"Sir, are you teasing me?" Yan Zong's face immediately darkened and he snatched the white card from Mr. Fan's hand.

"Old Fan wouldn't dare." Seeing that the prince was obviously displeased, Mr. Fan knew that he had gone too far in joking, and hurriedly bowed. Then he began to speak seriously: "Maybe they are sisters from the same mother, or maybe people's state of mind changes with time and experience, but in any case, this business card is enough to prove Miss Si Yao's identity, but where is this Peace Republic?"

"Even Mr. Fan, a well-read and learned scholar, doesn't know about this. It seems that this country is very mysterious." Yan Zong frowned as he looked at the white card in his hand.

"Your Highness, I, Yu Cheng, am here to report."

Just when Yan Zong and Mr. Fan were working on their research to no avail, Yu Cheng's voice suddenly rang out from outside.

"come in."

After Yan Zong finished his order, Yu Cheng opened the door and walked in, placing several confessions on the desk:

"Your Highness, Xuan Yao's men have confessed, but Xuan Yao has never said a word."

"With these, it doesn't matter whether he says it or not." Yan Zong picked up the confession on the case and began to read it.

"Did they mention their relationship with Miss Si Yao?" Mr. Fan also looked at Yu Cheng and asked.

Yan Zong paused while flipping through the pages, as if he was also waiting for Yu Cheng's answer.

"No, my subordinates have asked them personally, and they all said they don't know him." Yu Cheng first glanced at the Prince of Zong, and then replied to Mr. Fan.

"Your Highness, it seems that Miss Si Yao has no connection with Xuan Yao's party." After hearing what Yu Cheng said, Mr. Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you so sure, sir?" Yan Zong asked casually, flipping through the confession in his hand.

"Your Highness was suspicious of Miss Si Yao before because of her unclear identity. Now with the identity information on it, it is clear. Moreover, we have not found any evidence that Miss Si Yao is plotting rebellion or being a spy." Mr. Fan pointed at the white card in front of Yan Zong and stroked his long beard and continued to ponder: "Although I still don't know where the Peace Republic is, this business card doesn't look fake. The countries in the Central Plains continent can never make such a business card with such materials and technology."

Yan Zong held the confession in his hand, but his cold eyes looked at the white card on the desk in silence.

Si Yao was quietly reading a medical book in the room. On the other side, Arnold was punished and sent back to the military camp because he had offended Yan Zong again for Si Yao this morning. He was not allowed to leave without permission, which was why the courtyard was so quiet so early in the morning.

The door was suddenly opened, and Si Yao caught a glimpse of a tall and distinguished figure coming in. His eyes instantly turned cold, and the black-clad secret guards who were originally guarding outside consciously retreated several feet away.

"Si Yao greets Prince Zong." Si Yao put down the medical book in his hand, stood up, and saluted to Yan Zong neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"At a time like this, Miss Si Yao can be calm?" Yan Zong's eyes were as deep as the sea but revealed a hint of majesty. He was not annoyed when he saw Si Yao being cold to him, and spoke slowly.

"If you don't feel guilty, you will naturally be able to remain calm. Moreover, the prince is out there trying to prove Si Yao's innocence." Si Yao replied coldly, without a trace of expression on her face.

"Prove your innocence?" Yan Zong was naturally displeased by being tricked by this woman. He took two steps closer to her with a bit more arrogance in his eyes.

Si Yao was not afraid. She stood still and looked directly at the other person with her clear and cold eyes.

His oppression instead aroused her provocation, which surprised Yan Zong a little, but at the same time also aroused his desire to conquer. The two of them looked at each other, competing secretly, and the room suddenly became quiet.

Although Yan Zong fought on the battlefield for many years, he was born into a noble family and had seen many women since he was a child. However, he had never seen such a pair of eyes that were so clean without a trace of impurities, as crystal clear as the morning dewdrops, and as peaceful as the clear spring water in the mountain stream.

This was not the first time he had gazed into these eyes, so why did he only now discover how clear and transparent they were?

However, Si Yao looked at Yan Zong's domineering and sparkling eyes with a calm heart. What happened at the New Year's Eve banquet made her completely sober, and also sank the slight throbbing in her heart into a deep pool.

After a long time, Yan Zong suddenly turned his face to the window to hide the panic in his eyes. At this moment, his heart was in turmoil and his breathing was a little short. He couldn't help but feel scared when he thought that his mind was almost drowned in this woman's eyes.

"I wonder why the prince came to see Si Yao?" After another silence, Si Yao asked.

"Miss Si Yao, can you help me understand the meaning of this business card?" Yan Zong suppressed his confused thoughts, regained his usual dignity and presented the white card in front of Si Yao.

"This is mine..." Seeing the white card, Si Yao was so surprised that she subconsciously reached out to take it, but when the other party raised his hand, she grabbed nothing. Then she raised her head and asked coldly, "What right does the prince have to let people search my room?"

"I have to prove Miss Si Yao's innocence, so I have no choice but to do so. I'm sorry for being rude." Looking at the anger on Si Yao's face, Yan Zong felt a sense of pleasure of revenge and said with a joking smile.

"In our country it's called an identity card. A person's detailed information and place of origin are all on it, which is similar to your business card." Si Yao had no choice but to answer briefly.

"Where is your country?" Yan Zong narrowed his eyes and continued to ask.

"I don't know how to answer this question. Anyway, it's very far away..."

"I remember you once said that in this era, you don't know where your home is? You don't know how you got here?"

"Yes, I can't find my country on your map because we are not in the same era. So Si Yao has no way to tell the prince where my home is. I don't remember why I ended up here."

"The friend you are looking for is your compatriot? Where is he?"

"Yes, but I don't know where she is now."

Yan Zong stared at Si Yao silently for a moment, then suddenly turned and walked out the door.

"My ID card..." Si Yao was still thinking about the ID card in Yan Zong's hand, but she did not get any response from Yan Zong.
