Game World: Am I a toy of the system?

Today the new emperor ascended the throne, and a grand banquet was held in the Heavenly Palace at night. All the nobles and high-ranking officials in Yujing City attended with their families.

Yao Jun and Chen Xi were naturally present as well, but unlike the previous ten years where they sat in the main seats, they sat in the newly added seats.

Mi Yanhua naturally also attended the night banquet, but she only sat for a while, talked with Yao Jun, Chen Xi and several important ministers, and then got up and left.

Chen Xi looked at Mi Yanhua who was leaving and sighed, "How come my sister-in-law has aged so much in this year?"

Yao Jun was also upset. "Her health has never improved since what happened back then. She has been able to hold on for so many years only because she was worried about the children."

"Since ancient times, the wounds of love are the most difficult to heal." Chen Xi said sadly.

Yao Jun glanced at her sideways, picked up a fish ball and put it in her bowl, "Do you still understand the pain of love?"

"Uh, I don't understand. Today's fish balls are good." Chen Xi lowered his head to eat the food. He didn't want to say more about this, for fear that Yao Jun would notice something.

Yao Jun stared at her for a while, with a fierce look in his eyes.

It seems that she was hurt in love in modern times. When I find her, I will make that person pay the price!

Although ten years have passed, Yao Jun still doesn't know Chen Xi's modern identity, but he doesn't know that Chen Xi has figured him out.

The two of us are like playing hide-and-seek. You try it today, and I try it tomorrow.

This is also the little interest between this special couple. They are often so envious that others want to beat them to death.

As the night banquet was about to end, Yao Jun and Chen Xi stood up and walked towards the new emperor Ji Han.

Fourteen-year-old Ji Han is already a big boy. He inherited the excellent genes of the Ji family. With the guidance of Yao Jun over the years, he has already developed his own power. However, he is still not comparable to the regent who is famous and powerful throughout the world!

Seeing Yao Jun and Chen Xi approaching, Ji Han quickly stood up and took a few steps forward, greeting them: "Uncle, Auntie."

Chen Xi walked up to the half-grown child, tidied up his crown which was a little messy from getting up too quickly, and said, "It's getting late, we should go back."

"You... don't have to move out."

Although he had ascended the throne as the emperor, Ji Han was only a half-grown child after all. He held back the tears in his eyes and spoke with pursed lips.

Over the years, he has been studying with Yao Jun day and night, and naturally has received a lot of care and teaching from Chen Xi.

Yao Jun and Chen Xi are not selfish people. Since they have decided to teach people well, they will definitely do it with all their heart.

Moreover, this child had a very difficult childhood, which is heartbreaking.

Ji Han's father is Ji Ming's third son Ji Gaolan.

Ji Gaolan was a man with great ambitions but little talent. He was addicted to alcohol and lust, and not only did nothing all day long, but he also caused trouble everywhere. He was often kidnapped by the temple master and taken back to the ancestral hall to be educated.

Ji Han's mother was not Ji Gaolan's legal wife, nor was she a concubine, nor even a maid, but a romantic debt.

In this era, not everyone can be called a young master or a young lady. Those who can be called a young master should at least have a well-known bloodline.

So this guy Ji Gaolan, relying on his handsome appearance, often hangs out as a poor young man and makes a lot of friends.

It was under such circumstances that Ji Han's mother met Ji Gaolan.

Originally, Ji Han's mother was unwilling, but her parents forced her to take care of the drunk Ji Gaolan on the pretext of entertaining guests.

The pressure from her parents, coupled with Ji Gaolan's identity as a young master, forced her to serve like a maid.

As the saying goes, people tend to have sex indiscriminately after drinking, let alone someone like Ji Gaolan who is so promiscuous.

When Ji Han's mother realized something was wrong and wanted to escape, something even more cruel happened: the door was locked by her parents!

It was that night that Ji Han was born.

When Ji Gaolan woke up the next day and found a woman in bed, although he was a little unhappy, he took Yujing back. However, he arranged for her to live in a private house and only asked someone to send her some money every month.

Even after giving birth to Ji Han, Ji Gaolan only informed the clan and asked someone to take care of him, but he himself still did not care.

So Ji Han grew up in a single-parent family. Apart from being full of hatred for his father, he did not grow up to be a bad person and was very strong.

Chen Xi couldn't help but sigh when she thought of that strong woman. She had not met Ji Han's mother many times, but she had left a deep impression on her.

Patting Ji Han on the shoulder, Chen Xi sighed and said, "Bring your mother to live in the palace later. She is not suitable to live outside now."

Ji Han nodded: "Don't worry, Auntie, I've already invited her to the palace during the luncheon."

Chen Xi: "That's good, you have a great mother, treat her well."

Yao Jun stepped forward, put his arm around Chen Xi's shoulders and said, "Okay, let's go."

Ji Han looked at them and opened his mouth to try to keep them again, but in the end he sent them out of the palace.

As soon as Yao Jun and Chen Xi left, the ministers and nobles at the banquet stood up at the same time to see them off, but they all followed the new emperor Ji Han, which was a huge event.

When Ji Han stood on the steps of the palace gate, watching Yao Jun and Chen Xi walking down the steps hand in hand, their earnest teachings were still echoing in his ears.

Thank you, I will definitely not let you down!

After walking down the steps, Yao Jun and Chen Xi got on the imperial carriage that was waiting there, and then left the Heavenly Palace and drove towards their new home.

The curtain fell, and Yao Jun held his wife in his arms and blew into her ears.

Although they are an old couple, they still act like children in their daily interactions. Maybe it's because they are under too much pressure at work, or maybe it's just their nature.

What is more likely is that both of them love each other deeply.

Chen Xi was annoyed by Yao Jun's nagging, so she opened her mouth and bit him.

It is impossible to take action because you will be the one who gets hurt. This bastard is thick-skinned and tough!

The couple played around for a while, then Chen Xi broke free from Yao Jun's embrace, sat aside and said, "Stop messing around, I want to talk to you about something serious."

"You must be tired today. Lie down and let me massage your feet." Yao Jun said righteously.

Chen Xi rolled his eyes at him in disdain: "You filthy rascal!"

Yao Jun said with a straight face: "What are you talking about! I am just concerned about you. Lie down quickly and be obedient."

Then Chen Xi reluctantly lay down on the bed.

Yao Jun helped her take off her shoes and socks without even looking away, held her fair little feet and kneaded them gently, and said seriously, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Stop tickling my feet!" Chen Xi glared at him angrily.

Yao Jun nodded calmly and continued as he pleased.

Looks like I won’t be able to sleep tonight, this bastard!

Chen Xi knew he couldn't escape, so he just let him do what he wanted, and then asked, "How's the plan going now?"

Yao Jun looked down at the little feet in his palm and said, "Ten countries in the Western Region have already agreed, and the others are still under consideration."

"There's no need to rush this matter. With such huge benefits, they will agree sooner or later."

"It's just... isn't this a bit bad?"

Chen Xi sneered: "What's wrong with that?"

"I didn't force them, and I even sent people to help them grow cotton, and then bought it at a high price. This is clearly giving them money!"

Yao Jun pursed his lips, secretly annoyed at his own level of modern education, as he couldn't hear any problem in this.

But based on Yao Jun's understanding of Chen Xi and her expression, this must not be a good thing, but he had no evidence.

"Then why do you forbid us to grow cotton on a large scale ourselves?" Yao Jun asked.

Chen Xi looked up at him and said, "I'm happy, okay?"

"Row!"

Yao Jun said this very firmly.
