"How dare you! His Majesty's presence is already the greatest honor for this establishment, yet you still dare to make His Majesty wait in line?"
The Blue-robed Young Master seized the opportunity to shout loudly.
However, no sooner had he finished speaking...
The Right Prime Minister, dressed in his red official robes, slapped him hard on the back of his head and angrily rebuked, "You rebellious son, shut up!"
"Father, you…"
The Blue-robed Young Master was bewildered again.
What's going on, Father? I was speaking up for you, for His Majesty!
But he didn't know that the ministers present had all personally heard His Highness describe the wonders of this Internet Cafe earlier. They knew its background was mysterious and its origins extraordinary, so they naturally couldn't take it lightly.
Moreover, even the Emperor hadn't spoken yet.
Liu Zhengyuan's gaze met Su Ran's, and he saw calmness, composure, and an unperturbed demeanor in the other's eyes.
Su Ran then added, "Here, everyone's identity is simply that of a guest, a player. If there's no spot, you have to wait in line!"
Liu Zhengyuan paused, then after a moment, nodded, "Alright, then we are just guests. We'll wait!"
With that, Liu Zhengyuan had several accompanying guards withdraw outside the Internet Cafe.
He, along with Fang Hui, Liu Chengfeng, and six ministers, waited inside the Internet Cafe. Of course, the Blue-robed Young Master, who had long since completely doubted his life, was also there.
At the same time, they looked around, watching others play games.
Two ministers even saw their own children among them, playing games with such concentration that they didn't even notice their arrival, and their mouths twitched involuntarily.
Liu Chengfeng introduced from the side, "Imperial Father, look, this is the computer I mentioned before. What they are wearing on their heads are virtual reality devices. They use these machines to enter the game world, and also…"
Everyone listened in amazement, their hearts growing more expectant and somewhat anxious as they waited.
It wasn't until over an hour later, almost noon, that some players, feeling unwell, gradually logged off early and went to the Living Area.
Liu Chengfeng quickly pointed and said, "Imperial Father, look, there are spots! Let's go get on a computer!"
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they eagerly rushed to take their seats.
But just then, Liu Chengfeng thought of a problem.
Since Liu Zhengyuan and the others were playing for the first time, they definitely wouldn't be very familiar with the game. However, both Stardew Valley and monster hunter could only be played by four people in multiplayer.
With so many of them, they couldn't all play together.
Moreover, Liu Chengfeng had his own plans and didn't intend to play with his Imperial Father.
After thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but get up and walk to a spot on the other side of the Internet Cafe.
He saw that Liu Shiwan was also in the game at this time.
She was now quite adept at farming, so in her free time, she had asked Robin to help build a chicken coop on her farm.
She was currently preparing to go find Marnie to buy some chicks to raise.
"Liu Shiwan, Liu Shiwan!"
Suddenly, she heard someone calling her from outside the game.
Liu Shiwan couldn't help but remove her virtual reality device. She saw it was Liu Chengfeng and asked,
"Your Highness, is there something you need?"
"It's like this, Liu Shiwan, I'd like to ask for your help."
Liu Chengfeng then explained his intention, hoping Liu Shiwan could play with his Imperial Father and guide him to experience Stardew Valley.
Because he knew that Liu Shiwan was one of the earliest Stardew Valley players, and her progress should be much faster than others, so asking her was naturally the most suitable option.
Liu Shiwan hesitated for a moment. Although her surname was also Liu, she had no relation to the Feiyun Country royalty, and she didn't care whether the person was a prince or an emperor.
Normally, she would likely refuse.
However, since they were both players at the Internet Cafe and both played Stardew Valley, she remembered the boss saying that old players should help new players more, so she finally nodded in agreement.
When Liu Chengfeng brought Liu Shiwan to introduce her to the others,
Liu Zhengyuan said with a chuckle, "Even I have heard of Shi Wan's great reputation. She is unparalleled in song and dance, skilled in playing the zither, and her beauty is astonishing. Now that I see her, her reputation is truly well-deserved. Later, we will have to rely on you to guide us new players!"
Liu Shiwan humbly nodded, "This humble one will do her best!"
With that, Liu Zhengyuan, Fang Hui, and another minister entered the game under Liu Shiwan's guidance.
Liu Chengfeng looked at the remaining people and frowned again.
When they arrived, excluding the guards, there were a total of nine people. He could only bring three, leaving two. If the Blue-robed Young Master was included, then there were three people remaining.
In other words, he still needed to find one more person to guide them. He was wondering whom to ask.
But then the Blue-robed Young Master boldly stated, "Your Highness, I don't need anyone to guide me. It's just a game; I'll learn it very quickly!"
At this moment, the Right Prime Minister, who was nearby, did not scold him again. Instead, he nodded, "Yes, Your Highness, we can figure it out ourselves. You go play with them!"
A minister next to him also nodded.
Seeing this, Liu Chengfeng said no more and took the other three ministers to start the game, first instructing them on how to turn on the computer, activate the game, and then how to connect for multiplayer.
Until they successfully entered the game.
The three ministers were already full of curiosity and anticipation for this game, and now that they were truly in this world, they were even more filled with exclamations of wonder.
"Is this the game world?"
"Incredible, it's truly so real!"
"Not bad, not bad, the scenery here is beautiful, I like it very much."
The three of them admired the beautiful scenery of Stardew Valley while following Liu Chengfeng to his farm.
"Alright, we're here. This is my farm!"
Upon hearing this, the three's faces lit up even more, and they instinctively swallowed their saliva. They hadn't forgotten the purpose of following him to this Internet Cafe.
"Your Highness, I wonder if we can taste those ingredients you mentioned earlier here?"
"Yes, Your Highness, please let us taste them again!"
Since we can't eat them in the real world, surely we can eat our fill in the game, right?
"Want to eat?"
"Of course!"
Liu Chengfeng's lips curved slightly upwards, and he couldn't help but walk to the storage box placed by his door.
Upon hearing this, the three's faces were filled with even more anticipation.
However, the next moment, they suddenly saw Liu Chengfeng toss an object to each of them simultaneously, feeling a sudden weight in their hands.
They couldn't help but look down and were dumbfounded.
"A hoe?"
Liu Chengfeng smiled playfully, "No work, no food. If you want to eat, hurry up and start tilling the land for me. With you three free laborers today, I can finally expand a few more plots of farmland!"
"What?!"
"Free laborers?!"
The three's expressions froze, and they were all dumbfounded. A sense of foreboding immediately rose in their hearts, and they all wondered, is it still too late to quit the game now?
