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

The fire burned for two full hours.

It was not until dawn that Sun Xian, dressed in black and in a panic, fled from the county government office, and then the sound of mourning began:

"Qi Yu, Zhao Li..." Sun Xian sat down on the ground, slapping his hands on the ground, and with tears in his eyes, he called to the yamen runners, saying, "Quick, I order you to carry these two out for me, even if they are corpses!"

The people watching at the county government office were stunned at first, and it took them a moment to react.

"What? Qi Yu and Jiang Zhi, master and servant, died in that fire?"

"I saw it with my own eyes. His face was burned to charcoal. It was unrecognizable."

"He was the crown prince after all. Even though he was exiled, he helped our Huai Village regain its former prosperity. What a pity! God is simply jealous of his beauty!"

Mixed in the crowd were people specially arranged by Sun Xian.

Messages, both true and false, quickly spread.

Many people couldn't believe it and spontaneously went to the county government office to mourn Qi Yu, and the exiled people also rushed out.

In order to avoid being caught, Zhao Li personally led his men to the county government office and burst into tears. When the men in the county government office, who had been arranged by Sun Xian, saw Zhao Li appear, they immediately carried out the two blackened bodies.

Zhao Li was unsteady and almost crawled to Qi Yu's body. He lifted the white cloth and cried even more heartbreakingly.

"Qi Yu, my brother——"

Soon, the county magistrate's office, which was half burned down by fire, was filled with cries and shouts.

Behind the distant mound of exile, Zhao Li's subordinates handed a purse to Qi Yu.

"My elder brother asked me to give this to you. He said it's your amulet." The subordinate didn't know that inside was a jade token for communicating with Nian'er.

The moment Qi Yu took back the jade token, Nian'er's gentle voice indeed came to his mind.

"Did it work? Then I'll teleport you as soon as possible."

As soon as Song Nian finished speaking, more than thirty packages of various sizes appeared on the open space behind Qi Yu.

"Tell Zhao Li that this is the kindhearted gift from the gods, giving you winter gear. It includes cotton-padded clothes, quilts, cotton-padded shoes, and other warmth-keeping equipment."

Qi Yu hurriedly ordered, "After we leave, send someone to transport it to the place of exile. The gods said that they have also purchased many books. You and Zhao Li, or the people of Huai Village, can read them. It will benefit you a lot and will not cause any harm."

The subordinate nodded repeatedly, "Thank you for the gods' favor. I will bring people to move these things later. Brother Qi, Brother Jiang, have a safe journey."

Qi Yu nodded, then took out two gold ingots from his arms and stuffed them into his hands. These were the two he had taken out from the box of gold ingots he had given to Nian'er.

"Have Zhao Li go to Duping County and buy some live poultry and livestock for breeding. The rest will be used as a treat for you."

After he finished speaking, he picked up the different packages that had fallen beside him and flew away with Jiang Zhi.

Goodbye, Huai Village.

Maybe, we will never meet again.

-

"Your Highness, your leg injury is not suitable for excessive walking. Please rest for a while."

Jiang Zhi was worried about His Highness's legs. Looking behind him, he saw that they were already a hundred miles away from Huai Village and would not be discovered.

Qi Yu was also curious about what Nian'er had just sent him. He nodded, and the two of them leaned against a big tree to rest.

When the package was opened, there were two pairs of improved combat boots inside.

"This, is mine too?"

Jiang Zhi was very happy. He took it and put it on his feet and found that the size was perfect.

He said flatteringly, "Thank you, Your Highness, and thank the gods."

Qi Yu's eyes narrowed, "Hmm? What are you calling Nian'er?"

Jiang Zhi's eyes turned, and he understood instantly. He licked his face and said with a smile: "Thank you, Princess."

These words successfully pleased Qi Yu, and he was very happy.

He took the combat boots that Nian'er gave him, but refused to put them on.

"This pair of shoes is different from ordinary shoes, and also different from the ones Nian'er gave to everyone before. It seems like a combination of the two. How did Nian'er come up with this idea?" Qi Yu asked curiously, looking at the strange yet beautiful shoes in his hand.

Song Nian, who had been waiting for his news, finally felt relieved when he heard his voice. "You're going to join the army. How can you march and fight without shoes that fit? I custom-made these based on the style of Dajin shoes and combined them with the most comfortable combat boots of our time."

A pair costs five figures, but she spends it without any regret.

"Nian'er is very thoughtful." Qi Yu was extremely happy. The corners of his mouth could not be closed for a long time, and he was even more excited than when he was a child and received a reward from his father. "But I can't bear to wear the things Nian'er gave me."

"What's the big deal? You gave me so much gold, so it's only right that I buy you two pairs of shoes. Wear them with confidence. If they wear out, I'll buy you new ones."

These words pleased Qi Yu again.

When was the last time that he needed a woman to talk to him and buy him things to please him?

He liked Nian'er's care.

"Okay, then Yu will not let Nian'er down."

Putting the shoes on his feet, Qi Yu had never felt such comfortable shoes before. They were soft yet hard. They were indeed good shoes.

"So, in Nian'er's world, soldiers all wear these combat boots?"

He was very envious and suddenly had an idea in his mind that he must make all the soldiers of the Jin Dynasty wear this kind of combat boots.

"Of course, the comfort of the shoes can greatly improve the combat efficiency of the soldiers. Moreover, this kind of shoes are not afraid of water, are durable and wear-resistant, and the soles will not make you tired even when hiking, making them the most suitable for fighting." Song Nian knew that Qi Yu's kindness was aroused again. Well, after all, this was the man she had spoiled.

"Once you successfully enter the military camp and gain the general's favor, I will send you the blueprints for making these shoes. How about that?"

Oh, the little girl is treating him like a child and pampering him, trying to use objects to motivate him to make progress?

Qi Yu had never been treated like this in his life, and he enjoyed it very much.

"Okay, Yu Ding will work hard to enter the military camp and use this opportunity to return to the Imperial Capital. I will never let Nian'er down. Please also keep your promise, Nian'er."

It's just a matter of money, and it's not difficult for her now.

Song Nian immediately called the designer of the custom shoe factory to discuss the price of the drawings with him.

Ten minutes later, she bought the copyright of the shoes for 100,000 yuan.

Sure enough, having money is a person’s greatest confidence.

But she wouldn't give it to Qi Yu now. After all, a gift is more valuable when it is used by the other person.

"Don't get tired from walking all the time, especially your legs."

Song Nian couldn't see Qi Yu and didn't know how to send Qi Yu over, so she could only take care of him in other ways.

He ordered two bowls of rice noodles and sent them over. "Fill your stomach first before you hurry on your way. We're going to see Weiwei later, and I've prepared a gift for the little one. Don't be late."

When Qi Yu received the rice noodles and mineral water, he almost laughed out loud.

She really treats him like a child.

"Is Nian'er spoiling me too much?"

Song Nian just curled his lips and smiled, "Aren't boyfriends meant to be spoiled? Who told you to give me so much gold that I can't spend it all?"

Oh, how distressing.

So this is what it feels like to have too much money to spend.

"Is this called rice noodles? Your Highness, please try it quickly. It tastes delicious."

Jiang Zhi took a sip and his eyes lit up instantly. He slurped the noodles and couldn't stop.

For the first time, Qi Yu felt hungry just by watching someone eat, so he stopped being so serious because he still had to go to the adventurous forest in Zhou County to say goodbye to Weiwei.

"It's delicious. Nian'er has spoiled Yu's mouth."

Song Nian smacked his lips. What should he do if he can't eat anymore? "There are better ones. When you come to see me, I'll take you all to eat. But now there's a problem. I can't finish this portion. Do you want some?"

Qi Yu quickly finished a bowl of noodles. He was indeed not very full, but he wanted to eat something else at the moment.

"Yes, I want everything you give me, but what I want to eat most right now is... you."
