Chapter 24 Is Sister Su a Song or Khitan?
The original copy of Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Preface" has long been lost. Some say it was taken into the mausoleum by Emperor Taizong of Tang, while others say it was lost in the war. The ones that have been passed down to this day are all copies made by later generations.

The original version of the "Biography of Female Historian" has long disappeared in the long river of history. The earliest existing copy is from the Tang Dynasty and is still in the museum in John's country.

If the two authentic works come to light, the entire Xia Kingdom will be shocked.

Even if it is a copy, it is still a priceless treasure today.

Su Jiahe immediately ordered a new safe that was fireproof, waterproof, and bulletproof, and kept the six scrolls together with the sandalwood box inside.

As soon as he finished his work, Su Jiahe received a voice call from his good friend Bai Xueyun on WeChat.

"Hey, Jiahe, how have you been lately?"

On the other end of the phone, Bai Xueyun's voice was very weak, which scared Su Jiahe.

"Xueyun, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

"Jiahe, I'm fine," Bai Xueyun coughed a few times, "It's just... I just need to trouble you with something."

"Whether there is any trouble between us or not, just tell me what's the matter." Su Jiahe was anxious when he heard Bai Xueyun's uncomfortable voice.

"Nothing serious happened to me. I just got sick and had a major operation. Now I'm recuperating alone in the countryside."

"Ah? What disease is it? Is it serious?" Su Jiahe asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's not serious, but I'm so scared to be alone. Do you have time to accompany me? If you don't have time, forget it..." After Bai Xueyun finished speaking, he burst into violent coughing again.

Upon learning that Bai Xueyun was sick, Su Jiahe wanted to rush over immediately, but suddenly remembered that there would be new tourists the next day.

System, system, can I ask for leave?

[Personal leave must be applied for 24 hours in advance]

But I have an urgent matter!
[This situation is not an emergency. If your friend feels unwell, they can go to the hospital. If they need care, they can hire a nurse. You don't have to go.]

Su Jiahe: ...

How come your system is even harder to talk to than my boss?

"Xueyun, I'm really sorry. I've been very busy lately. How about I transfer some money to you first so you can rent a good house and hire a caregiver to take care of you? Then I'll have time to visit you in a week." Su Jiahe said helplessly.

"Jiahe, I can't take your money. I'm very happy that you come to see me."

Despite what Bai Xueyun said, Su Jiahe still transferred 20,000 yuan after hanging up the phone.

Both of them grew up in an orphanage and happened to be the same age. They went to school together, played together, and snuggled up to each other in the dark.

Therefore, Su Jiahe has always regarded Bai Xueyun as her own sister. This friendship is the warmest comfort in her lonely life.

The next morning at 9:30, while Su Jiahe was waiting for tourists downstairs, he suddenly thought of a question.

System, I have moved now, will the tourists still appear in the original place?

[No matter where the host lives, the visitor will appear downstairs of the residence]

Oh, that's how it is.

Su Jiahe felt relieved.

What if I am not at home but outside?

[When outdoors, tourists will appear within a radius of two meters. But don't worry, the system will try to help you find tourists quickly.]

What if I'm climbing Mount Everest, swimming in the ocean, or bungee jumping?

Why don't you say you went to the moon?

[If the host deliberately exploits the system rules and puts visitors in danger, all systems will be immediately disabled, and all cashback and gift letters sent by visitors will be confiscated.]

Don't be angry, system. I was just joking.

Of course Su Jiahe would not do this, but he suddenly had an idea and wanted to tease the system.

Before she knew it, it was ten o'clock in the morning. Suddenly, Su Jiahe saw a wisp of pale yellow silk fluttering behind a large tree not far away. [Ding-dong]

[The third visitor has arrived, please host start the mission]

"Huh? Is it a young lady?"

Sure enough, accompanied by a silver bell-like laughter, a girl in ancient costume walked out from behind the tree.

She was about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a goose yellow top and a light green long skirt. A few lotus petals fell on her body. Her hair was casually tied up, her cheeks were rosy, and she looked particularly bright and lovely in the sunlight.

Wow, what a beautiful young lady! Su Jiahe couldn't help but exclaim in her heart.

"Don't be afraid, girl. Come upstairs with me first and I'll tell you slowly."

Su Jiahe walked forward and gently took the girl's hand, but the girl tripped and fell directly into Su Jiahe's arms.

Suddenly, Su Jiahe smelled the smell of alcohol again.

Oh no, another drunk? She's a pretty girl, how could she be drinking before she even reached adulthood?

"Little girl, slow down." Su Jiahe helped the girl up and walked upstairs.

"Where am I? Wasn't I rowing just now?" The girl looked around with a dazed look.

boating?

Su Jiahe immediately recalled a poem she had learned: "I often remember the sunset at the pavilion by the stream, so intoxicated I didn't know the way home. Returning to the boat late at night, I strayed into the depths of the lotus blossoms..."

"Could it be that the person who came this time was Li Qingzhao?"

"Do you know me?" The girl looked at Su Jiahe, "Whose family are you from? Have we met before?"

"I am your best friend. You are drunk. Go back and rest." Su Jiahe followed Li Qingzhao's words, coaxed her into the room, and brought her hot tea and fruit.

Fortunately, Li Qingzhao didn't drink much and sobered up after two cups of hot tea.

"This is not my home. Am I dreaming?"

"You're not dreaming. You've arrived over nine hundred years later, balabala..."

It took Su Jiahe another explanation to make Li Qingzhao believe that she had really traveled through time.

"Sister Su, are you saying that I have seven days to travel freely in the afterlife?"

"Yes, Miss Li, wherever you want to go, I will arrange the itinerary immediately."

As soon as Su Jiahe finished speaking, a paper bag appeared from his pocket, containing a complete set of Li Qingzhao's documents.

"Where are we now?" Li Qingzhao asked.

"How should I put it..." Su Jiahe didn't know what Bohai City was called during the Song Dynasty. "It's near the lower reaches of the Haihe River, you know."

"Ah? Doesn't that mean we're almost in Liao? Is Sister Su a Song or a Khitan?"

Su Jiahe then remembered that the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty was very small, with the northernmost part only reaching Haihe River and Bazhou.

"Miss Li, China is now unified. The Song Dynasty and the southern part of the Liao Kingdom are all territories of our Xia Kingdom," Su Jiahe said as he brought out a map of the Xia Kingdom.

Li Qingzhao stroked the vast territory on the map, tears in her eyes.

"Is this really China today? Have Western Xia, Western Liao, Dali, and Tubo all surrendered?"

"Yes, today, we can go to any of these places. Of course, you can also go overseas if you want."

Li Qingzhao looked at the map of Xia Kingdom several times, thought for a long time, and finally pointed to an area near Bohai City.

"Here, I want to see the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun with my own eyes."
