After listening to Shi Lidie's explanation, Master Chen looked at her for a long time, then he sighed and said:

"Forget it, forget it. After all, she is just a little girl who knows nothing."

Shi Lidie is not a real little farm girl from ancient times. Inside her is a modern college student who has received more than ten or twenty years of education.

She understands many things.

But in the context of ancient society, the understanding is not so thorough.

So she boldly asked:

"Master Chen, please forgive my ignorance. I don't know what you mean. Could you please give me some advice?"

Mr. Chen was silent for a moment, then turned to Chen Shuting and said:

"Shu Ting, you have also read this collection of poems. Do you know what I am worried about?"

Chen Shuting knew that this was her uncle's intention to test and guide her, so she thought about it and replied:

"My uncle is worried that if this collection of poems gets out, it will cause a stir. Not only in the literary world, but also in the historical community, and even in the status of the royal family..."

Mr. Chen nodded and explained to the two girls:

“This collection of poems is incredible!”

"The book contains nearly 50,000 poems in total, and more than 2,000 poets are recorded in the book, but no matter the people or the poems, they have never appeared in the past dynasties."

"More importantly, when these poems are read in chronological order, they depict the process of a harmonious and unified dynasty from prosperity to decline."

“Although I don’t quite understand many of the allusions, some things echo each other when spoken by different poets.”

"Do you know what this means?"

Chen Shuting's face was very serious, and she spoke directly:

"This means that the unified dynasty described in the poem really existed."

"If this collection of poems was invented by the same person, then with his talent, he would have been famous all over the world long ago."

"So, this collection of poems is real. There really are more than 2,000 people who wrote tens of thousands of poems, recording the rise and fall of a dynasty. It's just that our history books have never recorded it."

In other words, it cannot be recorded.

Shi Lidie was stunned by the question-and-answer conversation between Mr. Chen and Chen Shuting.

Although the Tang Dynasty was indeed a unified dynasty and did exist in her own history, she did not expect that the uncle and nephew of the Chen family would deduce it this way.

When she gave the Complete Tang Poems as a gift, she had a simple idea:

It's just a collection of poems, but it's special in that it's a unique copy that's unprecedented and will never be found again. The most Mr. Chen can do is to admire the goodness of the poems in it.

But she didn't expect that Mr. Chen could get such important information from it.

In other words, she underestimated the wisdom of the ancients.

Shi Lidie felt that she had committed many common mistakes of time travelers. She thought she was standing on the shoulders of giants from later generations and was looking forward, so she lacked a sense of immersion in this place.

More importantly, she knew clearly that this was a world in a book.

She is real, but she forgets that here, even the paper people in the world of books are real.

This incident sounded a wake-up call for her:

Next time you come up with something that is ahead of its time, you must be extremely careful.

Fortunately, she had disguised herself when buying things in the system mall before. The appearance was suitable for this era, and she avoided others when using it.

Countless thoughts flashed through Shi Lidie's mind, but the expression on her face remained unchanged, still looking confused, making the uncle and nephew of the Chen family think that she didn't understand the ins and outs of this.

After all, she was just a farm girl, and being able to make wine and clothes could be considered a talent.

But the original owner had never received a proper education. Even if he could read, he should not have too much knowledge and learning, otherwise it would be inconsistent with his personality.

Fortunately, her behavior was normal and did not arouse the suspicion of Mr. Chen and others.

Master Chen turned to look at Shi Lidie and said earnestly:

"Miss Shi, you are extremely intelligent. You have worked hard from being penniless to having a little extra money now. You are a remarkable person. We have a good relationship. I will take advantage of my age to give you some advice."

"This collection of poems came from your hands and into my hands. Apart from you, me and Shu Ting, you must not mention it to anyone else."

After saying this, he turned around and told Chen Shuting:

"You too, you can read and write down the contents, but you must not tell anyone else. If someone with ulterior motives uses them, it will be disastrous."

"Yes, Shu Ting understands." Chen Shu Ting bowed and agreed.

Shi Lidie was a little dazed. She nodded and said hurriedly:

"Thank you for reminding me, Master Chen. I know about it now. I won't tell anyone."

She wanted to thank Mr. Chen for giving her this advice as a senior.

Fortunately, this happened early today.

Let her understand as soon as possible that this is not the paper world she has seen, nor is it a gaming place where she can do business.

Even though she has a system and plug-ins, she shouldn't underestimate others.

In the future, when she does things and reuses system items, she should try to rationalize them.

Master Chen looked at the two girls, nodded with satisfaction, and then waved his hand:

"Alright, I'm just giving you some advice. You're all smart people. You don't need me to lecture you all the time. Go down now."

Shi Lidie and Chen Shuting bowed, turned around and left the study, closing the door.

In the study, Mr. Chen carefully wiped the tattered and dusty book with his cautious movements, as if he was treating a rare treasure.

As a scholar, how can I not understand the world in this poem?

He was also fascinated by the prosperous dynasty described in the poem and wished he could see it in person during his lifetime.

Unfortunately, everything is just an illusion.

This collection of poems will be carefully kept and become a secret that will be buried in his heart for the rest of his life.

Perhaps he would have to wait until the moment of his death to choose a trustworthy and reliable person to pass on this collection of poems.

Shi Lidie left the study and walked out, silent along the way.

Chen Shuting couldn't help but ask:

"Are you scared? My uncle is sometimes so serious, but he is a very good person and is very tolerant to us young people."

"He was able to call you over and say such things to you, which shows that he doesn't treat you as an outsider. He treats you sincerely, just like his own junior, so don't hold a grudge against him."

Shi Lidie heard this and said with a smile:

"Why would I have a grudge? I have no elders to teach me, and Master Chen is willing to teach me. I can't thank him enough! His words can help me avoid mistakes and troubles in the future. This is a great favor."

"You're exaggerating." Chen Shuting laughed. "Okay, let's not talk about him anymore. Are you free today to walk around with me? I've been in Luoyun Town for so long, but I haven't had a good time yet!"

Shi Lidie perked up and nodded:

"Okay, actually I rarely go out for a walk, let's go for a walk today!"

Ever since the last time she felt like going out for a walk, she met Liu Wenzhong and Song Miaomiao in the Embroidery Workshop, which ruined her mood, and she has never gone out again.

After all, she didn't want two disgusting people to appear wherever she went.

But now it's better. Liu Wenzhong hasn't appeared for a long time, and no one knows where Song Miaomiao is now. I guess he won't come to bother her again in the short term.
