Game World: Am I a toy of the system?

Batian hesitated for just a moment and then told Chen Xi the truth about the current situation without hiding anything from her. After all, even if he didn't tell her, people would be coming to his house soon, so it was better than knowing nothing.

"You mean, the king sent troops to arrest me?"

Chen Xi didn't believe it at first, then he realized what it meant and his face turned pale.

"Why did he do this?"

Batian shook his head and said in a deep voice: "As soon as the young master left, he took action. Now the whole city has been blocked. In order to prevent us from hiding, this street should also be covered with a dragnet."

"Now it's time to run or hide. I want to hear your opinion."

Chen Xi's mind was in a mess, but she forced herself to calm down. She smiled bitterly and said, "The king should have been prepared. Can we escape?"

Batian was silent. If the Young Master was still there, they were confident that they could escape from the city under his leadership, but the Young Master was not there now!

Seeing that Batian was silent for a long time, Chen Xi understood. Fear and worry surged in his heart, and his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground in an instant.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Luo came in with a teapot. Seeing Chen Xi sitting on the ground, she quickly put the teapot on the table and helped her up.

Just at this moment, the sound of a large army marching suddenly appeared outside the store, and loud whistles were blasted everywhere.

"You guys wait in the store, I'll go out and take a look first."

Batian stood up calmly, strode out of the shop and closed the door.

As soon as he walked out of the shop, Batian's face changed instantly, and he saw that the roofs around him were full of soldiers holding bows and crossbows.

Most of them were soldiers from the Chen State wearing red armor, and the rest were scattered around, guarding and protecting Chen Xi.

Both ends of the street had been blocked by soldiers from the Chen State, who were marching towards here in unison. He knew all the people leading them, including Chen Huan and Chen Shu.

Even facing this deadly situation, Batian did not show any fear on his face. He looked left and right, then walked to the center of the street, waiting with a sword in hand.

Inside the shop, Xiao Luo's face suddenly changed when she heard the noise outside. She hurriedly helped Chen Xi to sit on the stool, ran to the door, opened a crack and looked out. Her face turned pale instantly, and she almost followed in Chen Xi's footsteps.

Chen Xi is very confused now. She doesn't understand why the king would make such a big fuss because of her and what his purpose is.

"Because of Gongzi Lie's death?"

"To avenge Mr. Bai?"

"But why didn't he take action when Mr. Bai was here?"

All these things were tangled up in his mind, making Chen Xi feel at a loss as to what to do.

At this time, Xiao Luo came back to her side, tremblingly told Chen Xi what she had just seen, and then said in panic: "Miss, what should we do now?"

Grandpa Chen, who heard the noise, also returned to the shop from the backyard, holding a stone axe in his hand to give himself courage.

Chen Xi hugged her head in pain. What mistake had she made to have to go through so much?

When he was a child, he was almost burned to death, and then he was treated for an illness for many years. After he grew up, before he had time to enjoy life, he traveled back to ancient times.

In ancient times, she only wanted to use the knowledge in her head to make the lives of her grandfather and grandson better. She had no intention of doing anything big, she just wanted to live a peaceful and stable life.

However, even this little wish could not satisfy her!

First, because of the secret recipe, they were slandered and defamed a lot, and someone even climbed over the wall to look for it. Fortunately, the grandfather and grandson would lock the door when they slept at night, so the visitors only messed up the yard and the store.

Then came the people who came to propose marriage. The matchmakers, who were all dressed up in fancy clothes and eloquent, looked at her with deep greed and malice in their eyes.

When she went to purchase goods, she was often bullied by others. They knew that her breakfast shop was doing good business, and it was normal for them to raise prices without reason. They wanted to force her to hand over the so-called secret recipe.

All kinds of evil things happened one after another during this year, until half a month ago, when a master and servant appeared in the city, things finally stopped.

It also made Chen Xi understand one thing. In this era, if one has no power or influence, one can only be bullied by others. That's why she tried so hard to please that young master.

All of this was done to protect herself. Even though she had feelings for Mr. Bai, she didn't dare to express it. It was all because of this.

I want to live!

Live well in this era!

Chen Xi slowly regained his composure, and there seemed to be something more in his clear eyes.

Xiao Luo was the first to notice her change, but she had no time to think about what the change was, so she asked anxiously: "Miss, what should we do now?"

Chen Xi said coldly: "Wait!"

There were thousands of Chen country soldiers outside, as well as Jun Ye's men. She, Xiao Luo, and her grandfather were all powerless. What else could they do except wait?

Now she wanted to know what the king wanted to do by sending people to arrest her?

You can't just think that she is Mr. Bai's woman and want to monopolize her.

Chen Xi: "Xiao Luo, go open the door and listen to what they are saying."

"Miss!" Xiao Luo looked at her worriedly.

Grandpa Chen looked at his granddaughter deeply, walked over and opened the store door. The tense scene on the street instantly appeared in front of him, and at the same time, the solemn atmosphere rushed into the store.

Batian glanced at Grandpa Chen, then focused his attention on the eldest prince Chen Wen, who was a few dozen steps away, and said loudly: "Jun Ye and Chen Kingdom have always kept to themselves, I don't know why Young Master Wen has mobilized so many troops."

Those who knew the inside story at the scene had changed their eyes when looking at Batian. They originally thought that he was an impulsive and brainless person, a dog beside Jun Ye.

Nowadays, people can tell lies without blushing or getting nervous. It really shows that you can't judge a person by his appearance.

The eldest prince Chen Wen glanced around coldly, feeling dissatisfied with his father's arrangement this time. Although he did not cooperate with Jun Ye, he did not want to offend them.

But as the eldest prince, he had to speak up at this time, otherwise others would think that he was afraid of the rat in the dark, and he would never have that position again.

Chen Wen came out of the carriage, stood on the shaft, and looked down at Batian, a kind of majesty emanating naturally.

Born noble! Like the sun in the sky, it is impossible to look directly at it!

"By order of the king, please invite Sister Chen Xi into the palace!"

"Why, do you, Jun Ye, want to take care of my Chen country's family affairs?"

As soon as Chen Wen finished speaking, Batian raised his head and laughed wildly, "Young Master Wen, you are also a famous figure in the world. Can you tell me which family would use the army to hire someone?"

Chen Wen remained calm and said with a cold gaze: "If it weren't for you, Jun Ye, we wouldn't have to mobilize so many troops."

"Batian, don't forget, Gongzijun is coming, and sister Chenxi is the one who will go on a blind date with him!"

"Do you, Jun Ye, want to anger Gongzi Jun?"

Young Master!

As soon as this name came out, the air became quiet, even the soldiers of Chen State fell silent, and Jun Ye's people looked at Xiaodian and Batian with shock in their eyes.

Their master actually wanted to snatch the woman from Gongzi Jun. Even though she was just one of his blind date candidates, it was crazy enough!

The reason why they made such an exclamation.

Because few people know that Gongzi Jun and Jun Ye are the same person!

Batian was the only one who knew about it at the scene, and he had to pretend to be shocked, which was a great test of his acting skills.
