worthless [rebirth]

"Chen Ling seems to be a bit of an honor, I'll call you Xiaoling from now on." Jiang Chao started to strike up a friendly conversation with Chen Ling when Jiang was not there.

Chen Ling didn't care much about the address, and he didn't have a bad impression of Jiang Chao, so he let him go.Nodding his head, Chen Ling said, "Your Majesty, do whatever you want."

Jiang Chao laughed, and was about to say something bad about Jiang Chi when he saw Jiang Chi open the door and enter.

"Going to a hut so quickly?" Jiang Chao said maliciously.

Jiang Chi didn't look at him, but directly hugged Chen Ling, and said calmly, "Go back."

Chen Ling was originally talking to Jiang Chao and the others, but he was caught off guard when he was suddenly hugged. He instinctively struggled but was firmly restrained by the other party's strong arms. The other party's force was so strong that even his bones hurt a little.

For a moment, Chen Ling thought Jiang Chi was angry, but when he looked up, did he see anything wrong with Jiang Chi, so he reminded Jiang Chi in a low voice, "You hurt me..."

"..." Jiang Chi glanced at Chen Ling in his arms, didn't say anything, just relaxed his strength, and then, under Jiang Chao's dazed gaze, carried Chen Ling out.

"Ah Feng, do you think there is something wrong with my second brother?" Jiang Chao couldn't help asking Luo Feng.

Luo Feng looked at the opened door, and said in a steady voice, "Maybe the emperor didn't go to the toilet."

"..." Caressing the coquettish flowers on the fan, Jiang Chao narrowed his narrow eyes and said with a smile, "Yo... nothing else is going to happen, right?"

Luo Feng was noncommittal, and said, "Where shall we go next?"

Jiang Chao got up, waved his fan leisurely, and said: "Where else can I go, of course I'm going home." He closed the fan, pulled Luo Feng up, and said, "Let's go, Ah Feng."

After Jiang Chi carried Chen Ling into the carriage, the two sat facing each other.Although the road is smooth, it is still a little bumpy. The groom is driving outside, and the wheels will creak from time to time.

Chen Ling fell asleep when he came here, so he didn't feel uncomfortable staying in such a small space with Jiang Chi, but now when he was awake, he always felt that the atmosphere was a bit dull, as if there was always a low air pressure covering his head, and it would come at any time. Thunder and rain.

Chen Ling couldn't help but secretly raised his eyelids to look at Jiang Chi who was opposite him, but saw that the other party was also looking at him, his dark eyes became deeper and deeper, like the depths of a secluded pool, with treacherous waves.

Chen Ling took a breath, and seemed to have found the feeling of being imprisoned by Jiang Chi again. In the deep palace where he could not see his fingers, Jiang Chi pressed him under him, and the other party looked down at him at that time. repressed.

In order to dispel that uncomfortable feeling, Chen Ling finally couldn't help but speak first, and asked, "Well, go back so soon... Are you done with everything you need to do?"

"..." Jiang Chi looked at Chen Ling, his sharp-edged face showed no emotion, and said calmly, "Well, it's over."

Chen Ling nodded, feeling that he had nothing to say, so he turned and sat on his side, raising the curtain to look at the scenery on the road.

Jiang Guo is a big country. If it hadn't cost too much national strength in successive years of wars, it would be almost the wealthiest country among the surrounding countries.The streets of the imperial capital are naturally much more bustling and bustling than the streets of Chu State that Chen Ling has seen.

Chen Ling lazily leaned against the wall of the car, watching the scenery and fireworks outside, his interest gradually increased, as if he had forgotten the inexplicable depression just now.

When he saw a mother hugging her daughter to buy a sugar painting, he couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth.

I remember when I was a child, the queen mother often took him out of the palace in micro-clothes and bought a sugar painting of a little tiger.

Jiang Chi saw a rare, even the only undisguised smile so far on Chen Ling's face, so his eyes seemed to be stung.He said lightly: "Don't you just like going out of the palace so much?"

"Ah? When I was a child, my mother often took me out of the palace to play." Chen Ling said casually, only to realize that he hadn't thought about it, and even talked about his past with Jiang Chao.With a forced smile, Chen Ling withdrew his gaze, lowered the curtain, and said sadly, "It's nothing."

"..." That's right, Chen Ling always wanted to leave.He has a family, parents, brothers, and more responsibilities.Jiang Chi always knew that although Chen Ling didn't make any moves to resist or run away, he always wanted to leave in his heart.Jiang Chi thought of that "little girl" again, so he said lightly, "Zi Ling, that sleazy little girl didn't burn you today, did he?"

Chen Ling froze for a moment, he subconsciously pinched his cuff, shook his head and said, "No, the water is warm."

Jiang Chi said: "It's fine if you don't have one, go back and change your clothes, the hem of this clothes is wet."

"Okay." Chen Ling replied, he was afraid that Jiang Chi would notice his strangeness, so he lowered his head and tightly clutched his cuffs.

The note Qin Shan gave him was still in his sleeve, so he didn't have time to read it, wondering what would be written on it?Are the father and queen mother in good health?Has Yun'er grown taller?How much has been recovered from the loss of national power caused by the previous war with Jiang Guo?

Chen Ling had too many worries and too many things he wanted to know. He only hoped that Qin Shan could write all of this clearly on that note. Now he could only carefully hide his uneasiness and not let Jiang Chi Find yourself different.

Jiang Chi knew what Chen Ling was nervous about. He was just afraid that he would be found out that he was colluding with that "junior" to escape, but the other party didn't know that the note was in his hand at this moment, and he almost squeezed it into pieces. It's broken.

Back at Fengwu Palace, Jiang Chi still hugged Chen Ling and sent him back to his room, and said in a cold voice, "Change your clothes."

Chen Ling took the dry clothes from Xiaotao, but he didn't take off his shirt for a long time. The note was still in the sleeve, how could he take it off?

Chen Ling sat on the bed with her calves hanging down naturally, supported the bed with her hands, raised her head and opened her big and bright eyes, and said softly, "No need...the clothes seem to be dry."

Jiang Chi glanced at the hem of Chen Ling's clothes, and found that it was indeed dry, leaving only a tea stain, so he didn't ask Chen Ling to change it now, and said, "It's okay to change it out tomorrow and wash it."

Chen Ling looked at Jiang Chi, wondering when he became so talkative.His eyes collided with Jiang Chi's, he flinched and turned his head away.

Jiang Chi took a deep look at him, turned around and left.

After the person left, Chen Ling let out a long breath, and slumped on the bed like a waste, lying on his back, not forgetting to quickly get the note hidden in his sleeve before.

Huh?No left?Chen Ling was startled, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly went to take out his right sleeve, but he was stunned.

gone? !The note that Qin Shan stuffed for him disappeared?

After a moment of blank mind, Chen Ling hurriedly recalled where the note might have fallen, and who might have picked it up.

In the carriage?At that time, I kept clutching my sleeves, so I shouldn't lose it.When being hugged by Jiang Chi?Were you careful at that time?Or... it fell out when I pretended to be in a hurry to wipe the hem of my clothes in Tianzi No. [-]?

Chen Ling felt more and more that it might have been lost at that time. There were Jiang Chi, Jiang Chao, and Luo Feng in the room at that time. If someone really picked it up, it wouldn't be considered lucky to be picked up by any of them.

"Alas..." Chen Ling rubbed his forehead and sighed helplessly. Why did he become more and more stupid? Did he have less contact with the outside world and his various abilities began to degenerate?

That piece of paper was undoubtedly a trash barrel, and it might explode if you were not careful, or...it had already started to explode, but I didn't notice it.

Chen Ling suddenly thought of Jiang Chi's inexplicable question in the carriage, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became. Could it be that the other party discovered something?Sitting up suddenly from the bed, Chen Ling called Xiaotao into the room, and said, "The emperor can say what he did?"

Xiao Tao said: "No."

"Is the emperor still coming tonight?" Chen Ling asked again.

Xiao Tao said: "The emperor didn't say anything, why, Your Highness wants the emperor to come."

"Heh..." Chen Ling pulled the corner of his mouth stiffly.

If Jiang Chi saw the note, he would know Qin Shan's existence. When Jiang Chi was angered, he would not say that he would be beaten, even Qin Shan and the others could not escape death.

what to do?How would he determine where the note fell, and how would he inform Qin Shan not to act rashly?

If... Jiang Chi got that note, how would he feel?

Chen Ling couldn't tell what was the reason for his nervousness and apprehension, which was entangled with hatred, but he knew that he definitely didn't want Jiang Chi to see that note.

-

Jiang Chi didn't pay attention to that Xiaoer when he was in Tianzi No.[-], but now that he thought about it, he began to feel that the person looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.After recalling for a while, Jiang Chi remembered a white-clothed general who fought against him more than half a year ago when he went to Liguo Yujia for his personal conquest. Isn't it the Xiaoer he saw today?

Heh, that's really interesting, he doesn't leave the palace easily, this time he met two groups of people from Wu Guo Li Guo at the same restaurant within a day, I don't know if it's a coincidence or man-made.

With a sneer at the corner of his mouth, Jiang Chi narrowed his eyes dangerously. He took a pen and paper and spread it on the table, and "brushed" drew Qin Shan's portrait from memory.

"Come here!" Jiang Chi finished the last stroke with a swipe of his brush. He put down the pen, picked up the painting and blew on the ink, then handed the painting to an eunuch who came in, and said, "Go and give this painting to General Meng, ask him to secretly search for this person's current movements and whereabouts in the imperial city, so as not to make any noise and alarm this person."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The little eunuch took the order and went out with the painting.

The painting skills of Jiang Chi and Jiang Chao brothers are not bad, the only difference is that Jiang Chao likes to paint flowers, birds, fish and insects, while Jiang Chi is best at painting portraits.

……

"His Royal Highness, try to see how well my ink is polished?" On the small pavilion in the lake, there was a cool breeze, and a young man smiled like a warm sun.

"Come on, stand there and don't move, I will draw a portrait for you." There was a smile on Jiang Chi's stern brows.

The tip of the pen is cruising on the spread of high-quality rice paper, and the well-ground Hui ink exudes a faint fragrance. In just a moment, just a few strokes, the delicate appearance of a young man is vivid on the paper.

The corners of the mouth are raised, and the smile is like a spring flower.

"Your Highness, your painting looks much better than mine." The young man smiled, looking at the painting happily.

Jiang Chi blew on the ink, and said: "If Bengong becomes the throne in the future, I'm afraid I won't have time to draw for you again?"

The young man said without raising his head, "I will never leave His Highness. If His Highness is still willing to paint, there will be a day of free time."

……

If it weren't for the fact that his father had fewer heirs, Jiang Chi thought maybe he wouldn't have been established as the crown prince, and naturally he wouldn't have been crowned as the Ninth Five-Year Lord, but would have been a quiet idler like Jiang Chao. king.

"Zi Ling...you said you would not leave me, I really believed it, I believed it."

Looking at the high-quality Hui ink that exudes a faint fragrance in the inkstone, Jiang Chi was a little lost, as if he saw that day he was holding Chen Ling's hand and writing together in Yunling Pavilion, "I wish to win the hearts of the people, but the white head is not"...

"Xiangli..." Jiang Chi snapped the brush in his hand, a shadow flashed in his eyes, he was low, Xi, Tuan, Team, Du, Jia.Said: "Why do you still want to leave?"
