Game World: Am I a toy of the system?

The construction of ancient cities was mostly related to their geographical location.

The construction plan of the internal houses has undergone many revisions from the early chaos to the current order.

Wangjing City is a new city that has only been built for a few hundred years, the same age as Chen State.

As the closest city to Yujing in Chen State, it was built on a large scale and was originally considered to be the capital. However, the later ruler of Chen State did not move the capital because it was too close to Yujing.

Today, Wangjing City is famous throughout Daji.

Due to its geographical location, merchants traveling from the north to the south have to pass through here, firstly because the road is easy to travel on, and secondly because it is safe.

Therefore, the commercial attributes of Wangjing City are very developed, but due to the times, it has not been developed more effectively. However, it is still unique in this era.

Three days ago, on a non-Festival day, Wangjing City began to decorate with lights and colors again. The last time Young Master Jun came was a few dozen days ago.

In front of the city gate, there are merchants and people coming and going. The inspection has been very strict in recent days, so the speed of entering and exiting has slowed down a lot.

Just at this moment, an earth dragon rose from the distance, and then the rumbling sound of horse hooves reached everyone's ears.

The city officer on the top of the city wall looked at the hundreds of black-clad and golden-armored cavalrymen rushing from afar, and knew that they were the Four Elephant Cavalry of Yao Kingdom. He hurried down the city wall and ordered the soldiers to open the middle city gate.

The soldiers guarding the city also rushed out, driving the merchants and people inside and outside the city gate to the sides, and shouted at the same time: "Kneel down to greet him, and no one is allowed to look up!"

A merchant who came from the east to sell food asked dissatisfiedly, "Who is coming?"

The soldiers guarding the city were very tight-lipped and had a bad temper. They walked over and kicked the merchant to the ground, shouting angrily, "I'm doing this for your own good. Stop talking nonsense and kneel down!"

The peddler was just a talkative person and didn't dare to really anger the soldiers. If he was not allowed to enter the city, it would be troublesome. He immediately got up and knelt on the ground obediently, not daring to say another word.

At this moment, someone in the distance exclaimed, "It's the golden-armored cavalry from Yao Country!"

The exclamation not only attracted the attention of many people, but also the chains of the soldiers defending the city.

"You idiot, what are you yelling about? Lock him up and take him away!"

The city official looked at the chaos outside and shouted angrily, "If you don't want to die, shut up. Do you still want to enter the city later?"

Now it was finally much quieter inside and outside the city gate. Everyone said that the county magistrate was not as good as the current manager. The person they had the most contact with on a daily basis was the city magistrate, and they were also the most afraid of him.

At this time, Yao Jun and his men also arrived at the city gate. The golden mask on his face flashed a cold light, and his eyes swept indifferently over the people on both sides.

A veil also appeared on Chen Xi's face, covering her appearance, but it couldn't block her eyes that were looking around, very lively.

It was not until this time that the city official realized who was coming. He had seen Young Master Jun the last time he entered the city!

His legs went limp, and the city official knelt on the ground, lowering his head and not daring to look directly at him. He shouted in a trembling voice, "Welcome, young master!"

Welcome, Sir!

There was an instant of dead silence inside and outside the city gate. The traveling merchant who had just been kicked to the ground wanted to secretly raise his eyes to see who was coming, but at this moment his body trembled and he fell to the ground.

Yao Jun was already used to all this. He drove his horse forward without looking around, stopped in front of the city official, and commanded condescendingly: "Find someone to lead the way. I want to walk around the city."

The city officer quickly replied: "Yes, no, yes...as you command!"

Yao Jun looked at the city official who was still kneeling on the ground, frowned and said, "Why are you still kneeling? Go find someone."

The city officer trembled, cold sweat instantly covered his forehead, and he hurriedly got up from the ground, turned around and pulled out a few soldiers from the kneeling city guards behind him, and whispered, "Go and lead the way for the young master!"

These soldiers defending the city were cursing the city officials in their hearts. Anyone could lead the way, so why did they have to drag them out?

But before they could answer, a scholar-official in red official uniform led his men through the city gate, walked past the city officials and soldiers guarding the city with a smile on his face, and came to the front of the horse.

He first bowed respectfully, then said loudly: "Your Highness, I have been waiting here for a long time on the orders of Governor Zhang. Let me lead the way for you."

Yao Jun looked at him with interest and asked, "How did Governor Zhang know that I would enter the city?"

As he asked this question, the hundreds of Four Elephant Riders behind him raised their spears one after another. The eyes behind their masks were cold and ruthless. They would slaughter everyone in front of them at the command of their lord.

It was a sunny afternoon, but everyone shuddered as if a great terror was about to befall them.

The scholars and officials waiting here naturally understood the deeper meaning of Yao Jun's words. After all, no one wants to be monitored, whether with good intentions or bad intentions.

Although they were mentally prepared, they were still shocked by the actions of the Four Elephant Cavalry. They were ready for battle without even waiting for Yao Jun's order, and would start the indiscriminate massacre as soon as the order was given.

How can this person still be a human being? He is clearly an evil ghost without any emotions, who only knows how to kill!

No wonder it was able to scare off the northern barbarians and became famous throughout the world.

The scholar-official who was ordered to wait at the city gate was also a brave and careful man. He was just frightened at first, but then he adjusted his mentality.

Under Yao Jun's gaze, he smiled again, bowed respectfully again, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Your Highness has misunderstood."

"How could Governor Zhang know that Your Highness would enter the city?" the scholar-official shook his head.

Yao Jun became interested: "Oh, this is interesting. If you didn't know I would enter the city at this time, why were you waiting here?"

In fact, Yao Jun already had some guesses in his mind, but since so much preparation had been made, he had to give him a chance to show his abilities.

Just see through it, don’t tell it.

The scholar-official raised his head and said in a loud voice: "When the governor learned that Your Highness was coming, he ordered us to wait in front of the city gate. Whether Your Highness comes or not, we will wait until the city gate is closed."

"The last time you passed by Wangjing, the governor also made the same arrangement, but Your Highness left very quickly and did not enter the city for sightseeing, so you did not know about it."

"In order to prevent anyone from bumping into you, the governor has given me the ceremonial guard of Wangjing. I am waiting for you in the city now."

After saying this, the scholar-official straightened his chest and looked at the horse's head. He did not look directly at the awe-inspiring young master. This was neither impolite nor a loss of face for the scholar-officials of Chen State.

Yao Jun raised his hand and waved it, and the hundreds of Four Elephant Riders behind him instantly retracted their combat stance and maintained only normal alertness.

Looking at the man in front of him with approval, Yao Jun asked, "What's your name?"

The scholar-official bowed and said, "I am Chen Huaming from Chen State."

Chen Xi, who was looking around, was stunned when he heard the name, turned his head and asked softly, "Chen Huaming?"

Yao Jun lowered his head: "Know him?"

Chen Xi shook his head: "I just heard my grandfather mention him, I don't know him."

Yao Jun nodded, then looked at Chen Huaming again and said, "If you have anything to say, let's talk after we get into the city."

Chen Huaming stepped aside to lead the way: "Please!"

Yao Jun drove his horse forward, and when he passed by him, he smiled and said, "Xiao Xi has heard of your name, which is great."

Chen Huaming became even more respectful.
