The ring connects the past and present, the exiled prince worships me as a god

"books."

Song Nian took out classical literature, modern literature, and picture books as representatives.

"Qi Yu once said that famine was rampant throughout Huai Village, and people had no food or water, so naturally they had no energy to study. Now Huai Village has recovered and everyone has food, but people can't continue to be depressed. I remember Qi Yu told me that there are more than 8,000 people of school age in Huai Village, so I brought some books with me. I hope the prefect can find a good place to display them together with these chalk and blackboards for people who want to learn."

"Isn't that a private school? You want me to set up a private school?"

Sun Xian reacted quickly, with some anticipation and some worry in his words.

He took the imperial examination to display his talent and serve the country. Although being assigned to this remote Huai Village buried him, no scholar was without compassion.

He had to admit that he readily accepted the woman's proposal, but... this private school could not be built in a short time.

"Wait...Did Qi Yu ask you to convey this idea?"

Song Nian paused, "Yes."

"But why didn't he mention it to me before he left?"

“Because these supplies haven’t arrived.”

"Supplies? You... could it be that you are..."

Sun Xian's sudden widening of his eyes startled Song Nian, but it only lasted for a moment. He smiled knowingly without saying a word.

Sun Xian was stunned.

Could it be that his guess was right?

He hurriedly dropped the dagger in his hand and stammered for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence.

"No matter what my identity is, I am here today on behalf of Qi Yu."

Song Nian said refreshingly, "So, does your Excellency have any difficulties in setting up a private school?"

Fortunately, she brought some gold in her space, which might be able to help him.

"No, no, no, it's not difficult. I have plenty of gold, silver, and treasures, and there are a few empty houses in the village. Tomorrow I will have people build a private school and place all the items that the young lady brought with her inside. Anyone in Huai Village who wants to learn to read can come and enroll."

Seeing Sun Xian's understanding, Song Nian was delighted. "We can also set up three classes, high school, and low school, based on everyone's basic skills, and divide the time between classes. Otherwise, this small private school won't be able to accommodate so many people. I'll be back here in half a month. In the meantime, if you need any supplies, please list them and I'll come get them."

After hearing what Song Nian said, Sun Xian confirmed his guess. He knelt on the ground with a thud and opened his mouth to thank the gods.

Song Nian hurriedly helped him up, "Shh... Sir, you are embarrassing me."

This was the magistrate who lived a thousand years ago. She couldn't bear to see him kneeling down to her so tenderly.

"I do all this voluntarily, of course, because of Qi Yu, so could you please step aside for a moment?"

She bought so many things, and only a small part of them were in the box. If she took them all out, she was afraid it would scare Sun Xian.

Sun Xianshang guessed what she was going to do, and hurriedly left, shouting loudly not to disturb anyone.

In the quiet front hall, there was only the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. About an incense stick later, when Sun Xian heard the sound and came back, he saw Song Nian lying weakly on a chair beside him.

"God...girl, are you okay?"

Sun Xian rushed over and poured her a cup of tea. "This is Longjing, Qi Yu's favorite tea. Would you like to take a rest first?"

"It's just a bit tiring. Those things are too heavy."

Although they were all taken out from the ancient ring space, it consumed her physical strength, and she did not control it properly, so many things fell into her hands when they appeared. How could she carry a thousand sets of books?

After taking a sip of the tea brought by Sun Xian, her eyes rolled and she suddenly had an idea.

"You said this is the tea Qi Yu likes to drink?"

"Yes, why, girls like it too?"

No, it's a bit bitter, she can't get used to it. She still likes milk tea, but she can barely accept what Qi Yu likes.

"Sir, could you please give me this teacup and that teapot?"

He thought the goddess was going to tell him something else, but he didn't expect her to actually take a fancy to his teacup. Sun Xian shook his head quickly, "Of course not. Miss, you have helped us so much, how can this small teacup express my gratitude? Miss, wait."

Before Song Nian could call the man back, he saw him coming out holding an exquisite box.

Looks a little familiar,

When he opened it, he saw that the golden light made Sun Xian look fatter.

"Please accept it, young lady."

There was so much gold, more than a kilogram the last time she asked.

"I said that I volunteered to help Huai Village because of Qi Yu. I'm very grateful for your care for him when he was in Huai Village. I know that there are more people suffering in the world, but I have seen the difficulties of Huai Village with my own eyes, so I will do my best. Therefore, I only want that set of teacups."

Song Nian stared at the teapot, "If possible, could you please make me another pot of hot tea?"

Are gods that thirsty?

Seeing that she insisted on not having it, Sun Xian went to make tea himself. Soon, a pot of fine Longjing tea exuding tea fragrance appeared in Song Nian's hands.

"Thank you, sir. I won't be polite then."

Carrying the teapot and teacup, Song Nian said goodbye to Sun Xian. However, as soon as he walked out of the prefectural government office, a raging fire broke out outside the door.

At some point, a lot of villagers gathered and stood at the gate of the yamen. When they saw Song Nian coming out, they all knelt down.

"Thank you, goddess, for your help."

Everyone shouted in unison, their eyes filled with gratitude towards her.

Song Nian was stunned for a moment, but after he came to his senses, he quickly put down the teapot and helped the older people up.

"Why are you so polite? I'm helping you all voluntarily. It's late, everyone please go home."

"Thank goodness, God has mercy on us. A few months ago, we met Qi Yu. He was able to communicate with the gods and helped Huai Village, filling our stomachs. Today, we met the goddess again, who took care of our disabled bodies. Thank you very much, goddess."

Sun Xian rushed out when he heard the noise.

He guessed Song Nian's identity, but was afraid to tell her about it and cause more panic. He said with his big belly and official authority: "What are you doing? Are you trying to scare the girl? What goddess or not? Go back. Thank Qi Yu if you want to thank someone. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't be able to see this girl today."

Qi Yu's death was sudden and strange. Older people might not understand, but those who had attended school could vaguely guess the reason. Hearing the prefect's words further confirmed his suspicions.

The people knelt again and shouted in unison, "Thank you, Qi Yu, thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

I believe that soon, the gratitude in the hearts of the people will spread further and further.

When Song Nian returned from the ancient ring space, she found that it was the same place she left, a blind spot for surveillance.

She was about to contact Qi Yu when a cold voice came from behind her.

"Song Nian? Why are you here?"

"Do you know I've been looking for you for a long time?"

"No, I clearly looked for this place just now. How did you show up?"
