In the late years of the Daqian era, tyrants roamed freely, war erupted endlessly, and the people could not sustain their lives. 
After transmigration, Chen Jie finds himself as a drunken gambler with a pair of unfortunate sisters at home.

The elder one, Su Yunjin, is his wife, and he also has a five-year-old sister-in-law, Su Yunrui. 
Their family is so poor they can barely make ends meet. 
Then suddenly, his beautiful wife comes smiling, bringing him a bowl of hot porridge. 
"Husband, I was wrong yesterday. Please have some porridge while it's hot."
Seeing the bruises on his wife's face, Chen Jie feels something is amiss.

Ding~
[Daily Information has been updated]
[1. Yesterday, you gambled away the last three acres of good land, beat Su Yunjin while drunk, and planned to sell the five-year-old Su Yunrui, to recover your losses.]
[2. The Su sisters rely on each other. Su Yunrui is Su Yunjin's only hope.]
[3. Su Yunjin, having lost hope, traded her mother's hairpin three days ago for a pack of arsenic.]

...Arsenic!
Staring at the hot porridge brought to his lips, Chen Jie looks up at his wife, seeing the faint bruise on her face and her eyes shifting away, avoiding his gaze.

"Honey!"
"Yes?"
"You're not going to kill me, are you?!"

Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Nan Batian's Mystic Ice Power was very useful; there was an Ice Hall in the treasure trove that could only be opened using the Ice Based Technique, and Nan Batian's Mystic Ice Power was just the right fit.


So even if they couldn't defeat Chen Jiusi today, they had to protect Nan Batian!


Therefore, he still chose to firmly protect Nan Batian.


Zhao Ya represented the interests of the Ruyang Royal Mansion, while he represented the interests of King Qi; in the face of these interests, he could not back down, otherwise, he would lose his position in the heart of King Qi.


If he lost his position, he would truly be close to death.


King Qi would not need a useless subordinate.


Thus, even when facing the Commandery Princess, he could not keep backing down, otherwise, he would be replaced by someone else appointed by King Qi.


Zhao Ya looked at Ba Tan and said, "Are you implying that you must firmly protect this Nan Batian?"
