Game World: Am I a toy of the system?
Chapter 358 Yearning and Memories
Since that day, Chen Xi's status in Yao Kingdom has become higher, and the king and queen even hosted a private banquet for her once.
They also invited Grandpa Chen and Chen Minghua over, as if they were going to discuss the marriage.
Chen Xi naturally knew why all this happened. Anyone who was not a fool knew her value and would naturally not stop her from marrying Yao Jun.
It was already late at night. Chen Xi, wrapped in a thick leather blanket, sat in the front hall, staring at the charcoal basin in front of him in a daze.
Xiao Luo brought a bowl of hot water and said, "Miss, His Highness will not arrive until tomorrow, let's go back to bed."
Chen Xi took the hot water and took a sip, then put it on the small table and said, "I'm not sleepy yet, so stop busying yourself and sit down with me to warm myself by the fire."
"Ok."
Xiao Luo brought a small stool covered with fur and sat next to Chen Xi on the couch.
On a quiet night, the wind blew, bringing up the unmelted snow on the roadside.
On the straight road leading to Hongcheng, there were bursts of horse hooves sounds, and the white smoke emitted by the war horses condensed into frost on their manes with their breathing.
Tomorrow is New Year's Day. Hongcheng is decorated with lanterns everywhere, and even the top of the city is brightly lit.
"who!"
When the soldiers noticed someone approaching the city gate, they immediately shouted and raised their crossbows.
Dozens of knights, both men and horses, were wrapped in black cloaks, making it impossible to see their faces. They were standing a dozen steps away from the city gate, and only the heavy breathing of their horses could be faintly heard.
The leader reached into his arms, took out something the size of a palm, and threw it toward the top of the city wall.
In the quiet night, the sound of metal hitting bricks can be clearly heard.
The soldiers defending the city walked over to the sound, picked up the things that were thrown up, checked them with the help of the torches on the top of the city wall, and then their hands began to tremble.
This is a golden token with only one word "Dream" written in Daqiu script in the center.
Although the soldiers did not know what this word meant, there was only one person in Yao Country who used it as an identity.
The soldiers guarding the city didn't know whether the token was real or fake, so they hurried to find the commander on duty that night.
The drowsy general woke up instantly after seeing the token. He came to the top of the city wall and after some confirmation, he excitedly ordered: "Open the city gate and welcome His Highness!"
When the city gate was opened, Yao Jun led his team in quickly. When he passed by the general guarding the city, he politely said, "Thank you."
The general defending the city bowed and saluted, so excited that he could not control himself. When he came to his senses, the sound of horse hooves had faded away.
He slapped himself in annoyance, and the soldiers defending the city lowered their heads and suppressed their laughter.
The general defending the city ordered his soldiers to close the city gates with a cold face, then called a messenger to inform the palace of the news of His Highness's return, and then went back to his room to drink. It was really embarrassing tonight!
In this era, there was no New Year's Eve or activities such as staying up all night to celebrate the New Year, but even in the late night of winter, this festival of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new was extremely lively.
Ten days after the curfew was lifted, many locations in the inner and outer cities were carrying out nighttime ancestor worship activities, and there would be even more grand sacrificial activities tomorrow.
Worship ancestors, worship heaven, worship spring, and worship ghosts and gods!
From the king and queen to the common people, everyone will participate in it.
This is Chen Xi's second New Year spent in Daji. He still remembers that the first one was spent with his grandfather.
It is very cold in winter, the food is not rich, and the clothes are thin.
That day, she and her grandfather stood in front of the stove, ate a dinner without any oil, and then went back to the house to sleep.
In just one year, earth-shaking changes have taken place.
She and her grandfather moved into a secluded mansion, where hundreds of people took care of their daily lives, and they had carriages and guards when they went in and out.
Chen Xi doesn't think that he can live such a life relying on his own brain. It is unrealistic.
What era is this?
B.C!
In this era, who the hell will talk to you about human rights, laws, and intellectual property rights!
Chen Xi was very clear-headed, otherwise that breakfast shop wouldn't only sell steamed buns and stir-fried vegetables. She was scared to death!
It is a crime for an ordinary man to carry a jade without any guilt!
During that period, she actually lived very cautiously. She was nervous every night and always kept an extremely sharp kitchen knife next to her pillow.
It wasn't until Yao Jun showed up that everything finally changed.
Thinking of the quick glance at the tea stall that day, I felt a sense of familiarity in my heart, so I hid in panic.
She doesn't know why!
At that time, he actually called himself his real name. Chen Xi didn't remember it until they were about to leave Chen Country.
And then came that day.
Young Master, enter the city!
Chen Xi looked at the flames in the charcoal basin, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"You did that to me on the first day. You are really a bad guy."
"Pretending to be lame and sitting in a wheelchair, he asked me to push him."
Chen Xi still remembers clearly every word the two had said to each other since they met, and now all of them are flooding back from his memory.
There were times when she felt flustered, and times when she felt touched and angry.
Yao Jun is actually very good at disguising himself. If it weren’t for some special abilities, it would be difficult to find out that he is Bai Meng, Chen Xi muttered to himself.
Seeing her expression changing, Xiao Luo asked with concern, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Xi shook his head: "It's okay, I just remembered some things from the past."
After sitting in this position for a long time, Chen Xi got down from the couch. The room was warm, so he stopped wrapping himself in the blanket and started moving around the room.
Seeing this, Xiao Luo took an oil lamp from the golden bird lampstand that was as tall as a person, followed Chen Xi and illuminated the way for her.
"No, I just want to stretch my body."
The room was bright and no lighting was needed.
Xiao Luo turned around and put the oil lamp back, then stood under the lampstand, watching her young lady circling in the room, thought for a moment and asked, "Young lady, are you missing His Highness?"
Chen Xi turned his head and looked at her, and admitted generously: "Yes, I can't sleep when I think about him coming back tomorrow."
Xiao Luo: "But there are still many things to do tomorrow. It's very tiring."
Chen Xi stopped and thought about it carefully. Although she didn't have to participate in all sacrificial activities, there were some that she couldn't avoid.
The historian has already sent the process. Apart from other things, at least she must participate in the Heaven Sacrifice and Spring Sacrifice. If she is still in Chen State, she must also participate in the Ancestor Sacrifice.
But because she has not yet married Yao Jun, she skipped this step, otherwise she would have to spend the night in the palace.
Chen Xi turned around and walked to Xiao Luo, grabbed her hand, and said gratefully: "Luckily, I have you, otherwise I will definitely be too tired to hold on tomorrow, and then it will be embarrassing."
Ever since Xiao Luo came to his side, Chen Xi felt that he had really learned a lot, and she took good care of himself and his grandfather!
And it was he who sent Xiao Luo to her!
Xiao Luo lowered her head in embarrassment: "Miss, this is what I should do."
At first, she thought Chen Xi would be with Jun Ye, which was good, but it was not something that could be seen in public. But she was just a maid after all, and she had no choice but to serve Chen Xi and survive.
What happened next seemed very bizarre to Xiao Luo, as if it were some myth.
Chen Xi got close to Gongzi Jun!
That's Master Gong!
Although Jun Ye is also very strong, compared to him, it is like the difference between the blazing sun in the sky and a candle flame!
During that period, Xiao Luo would wake up in the middle of the night, fearing that it was just a dream.
Even now, Xiao Luo still doesn't understand how her young lady and Mr. Jun got together, and now they are talking about marriage.
Young Master will be back tomorrow!
And his young lady is going to marry him!
Become the most noble woman in the world!
The eldest prince of Yao country and the emperor of Daji!
Gongzijun’s legal wife!
