Game World: Am I a toy of the system?

25 years later, on the streets of Chen State’s capital, a master and a servant walked into the inn exhausted, found an empty seat and sat down cross-legged.

After taking off the accessories from their waists and placing them at their sides, they dusted off their bodies with the dry cloth on the table, then called the waiter and ordered some food.

The servant was not very old, with red lips, white teeth, phoenix eyes and willow-shaped eyebrows. She was extremely beautiful. Even though there was a hint of fatigue on her face, it made people feel pity for her.

Bai Xiaotao picked up the teapot, knelt down, and politely poured a cup of tea for the host, and then poured some for herself.

After putting down the teapot, she looked at the host opposite her and asked carefully: "Sir, why did we come to Chen Country?"

"The department manager asked us to come here, so don't ask too many questions." Yao Jun explained casually, picked up the teacup and drank it all, then picked up the teapot and poured another cup. If he talked too much, his throat would hurt severely.

Mr. Xi is very mysterious and often orders his master to do this and that. Bai Xiaotao has been following her master since she was 6 years old. It has been 10 years now, and she has never seen Mr. Xi.

He is a very mysterious person. No one knows what kind of person he is. Bai Xiaotao felt emotional.

After the master and servant had their meal, they checked into a room, paid someone to boil some water, washed off the dust on their bodies, changed into clean clothes, checked out, left the inn, and headed towards their destination.

At this time, the King of Chen State was furious in the palace. The reason for his anger was not because of anyone else, but because of the Young Master of Yao State who was going to visit in a month!

Queen Meng comforted him, "Muzhe, don't be angry. There is still a month left. We will find a solution."

"What can we do? This is the order from my father and the previous emperor. Even I cannot disobey it!" Chen Muzhe said worriedly.

The previous emperor had a very good relationship with the ruler of Chen State. They were childhood playmates. The two sides had originally agreed that if the ruler of Chen State had a daughter, they would choose one of the emperor's descendants who was of appropriate age to marry.

But because the King of Chen had no daughter, only five sons, the plan was abandoned.

Now the previous ruler of Chen State and the previous emperor have both passed away, but the new emperor, King Jiqing, is a filial son, so he brought up the old matter again.

The main reason is that his aunt's younger brother, Gongzijun, is now 25 years old and still runs around outside every day and doesn't even have a family.

Although my aunt and uncle later had three more children, two sons and one daughter, they were still worried about the eldest, so they came to the emperor and asked him to think of a solution.

So I thought of this matter, which could also fulfill my father's wish, killing two birds with one stone.

King Jiqing ordered people to ask Chen Muzhe, the current ruler of Chen State, whether there was any girl of the right age, and to have Prince Jun come for a blind date one month later.

Chen Muzhe does have a daughter who is 18 years old, which is the right age.

But although Gongzi Jun's reputation is known throughout the world, everyone knows him.

I heard that two years ago, in a great battle with a foreign tribe, he was seriously injured in an attempt to burn the enemy's food supplies. Although he was rescued, he was left with a chronic illness and is now a disabled person.

Although Gongzi Jun is an immortal figure, he is a useless person after all. It is hard to say whether he can be a humane person. Chen Muzhe naturally does not want his daughter to marry him, and his daughter herself does not want to do so either.

That's why he gathered the people he trusted in a side hall to discuss how to deal with this matter.

Yao Jun didn't care about what the King of Chen was discussing.

Moreover, he had previously agreed with the current emperor, Prince Jiqing, who was also his cousin, that it was just a blind date, and if no one was suitable, then forget it.

The current emperor, Prince Jiqing, also known as Ji Ming, likes his younger brother very much. He has watched him grow up, but his temper is too wild, which is a headache for him.

The capital of Chen State is very large. Because it is close to the Southern Region, the customs of the people are relatively free. But this is only compared with the Central Plains. If compared with the Southern Region and the Northern Barbarians, it is a country of etiquette.

Yao Jun was wearing a rough black coat and had a gauze covering his face. He was over 1.9 meters tall, making Bai Xiaotao next to him look like a little bean.

At this moment, he stared ahead with deep eyes and walked like a dragon and a tiger.

In front of him was a map that no one else could see. A blue dot of light was the destination of his trip, and he didn't know what interesting things would happen there.

Yao Jun is Bai Meng, and unlike previous time travels to ancient times, he recovered his memory at the age of one.

I have lived in Daji for 24 years now and have become accustomed to the lifestyle here.

Compared to before, the system is more active, and it always allows him to do unexpected things, which surprises and makes people admire it.

After arriving at the location of the blue dot, Yao Jun discovered that this was a breakfast shop, but it was closed. There was only a stall at the door selling tea.

Seeing the owner stop and stare at the tea stall, Bai Xiaotao, who had followed Yao Jun for ten years, immediately stepped forward, wiped the bench clean, and then asked the shop owner to serve tea.

Yao Jun said nothing, walked to the clean bench and sat down, took off the long sword from his waist and placed it on the table, then looked at the tea stall and the people around.

When the common people saw him wearing a long sword in the city, they knew he was a man of status and did not dare to approach him to talk to him.

Tea and some snacks were quickly served. It was a little girl who looked about the same age as Bai Xiaotao. She was wearing a coarse linen shirt, but her youthful beauty could not be concealed.

Yao Jun just looked at him for a few seconds and then shifted his gaze elsewhere.

Bai Xiaotao started chatting with the little girl, "Sister, you are so pretty. How old are you? Are you engaged?"

The little girl blushed, didn't answer, and quickly returned to the shop with the tray.

Yao Jun glanced at Bai Xiaotao and said with difficulty: "Don't talk nonsense."

Hearing this, Bai Xiaotao nervously picked up the teapot and poured him a bowl of tea, "Young Master, don't talk. Drink some tea to moisten your body."

Yao Jun nodded coldly, picked up the teacup and drank some tea.

A few months ago, when he was staying in a wild inn, he was accidentally poisoned and his throat became hoarse. Although he has a system to save his life, his throat needs to be healed slowly.

Fortunately, Bai Xiaotao was adopted back then, otherwise these days, she would have been in a lot of trouble because she couldn't speak, Yao Jun sighed in his heart.

Because there were frequent foreign invasions from the north, Yao Jun, who was only 15 years old at the time, had to travel the world alone and made a name for himself as a knight-errant.

Bai Xiaotao was adopted by him at that time. He originally wanted to find a wealthy businessman to take care of her, but seeing her pitiful appearance, he kept her with him and taught her to read, write and practice martial arts.

Similarly, in Bai Xiaotao's heart, Yao Jun is her adoptive father, master, son, master, and benefactor. As for whether she has any other feelings, it is not known to outsiders.

The master and servant drank a pot of tea, put down the money and left. Only after they left did the girl who had served them tea come out of the room.

"Xiao Xi, collect the money from that table." shouted the grandfather who was making tea.

Chen Xi agreed and cleaned the table neatly. Then he did not go back to the house, but took care of the tea stall outside, greeting and seeing off everyone who came. Although he was still young, he was extremely generous in treating people.

At noon, the grandfather and grandson closed the tea stall, locked the door, let grandfather sit on a chair to rest, and Chen Xi went to the backyard to cook.

The seasonings of this era were very few and not as rich as those in later generations.

Chen Xi took out a clay pot from under the table, scooped some homemade lard from it with a spoon and put it into the pot, then lit some firewood.

Then she took out the washed vegetables from the basket hanging on the wall, cut them on the chopping board, and chopped some ginger.

After the pork in the pot melted, Chen Xi put in the minced ginger first. After it smelled fragrant, he put in the chopped vegetables. After stir-frying for a few times, he added some well salt that had been dissolved, precipitated and filtered. Finally, he poured some plum vinegar along the edge of the pot and served it.

Although it is just a simple stir-fried vegetable dish, the fragrance spreads from ten miles away. Even people passing by on the roadside will subconsciously swallow their saliva when they smell the aroma.

Put the vegetables in a bowl, add water to the pot, put a steamer on it, put the leftover rice from the morning on it, and you can eat it as soon as the water boils, without wasting the oil from cooking.

Chen Xi squatted in front of the stove and looked at the fire, but his mind flashed back to the master and servant he had just seen. Although they were dressed very simply and had no accessories on their bodies, their temperament was not something that ordinary people could cultivate.

"Whose son is this again?"
