worthless [rebirth]

Chapter 21 Unable to Escape

Chen Ling has always disbelieved in fate. At least at the moment before he was reborn, he still firmly believed in the four-character idiom "Man can conquer nature", and made it his life creed.That's why he chose the extreme and pathetic way of suicide again and again to get rid of Jiang Chi's shackles, or the shackles of fate.

But God gave him a chance to be reborn, and the time of rebirth happened to be after he came to Jiang Country to be a proton, so Chen Ling had to start to believe in the existence of such a thing as "fate".

Everything that happened in the next two months deepened Chen Ling's understanding and fear of "fate", an elusive and mythical substance.

Even if you are reborn and have the memories and experiences of your previous life, what should come will come after all, and no one can escape it.

Li Cangfeng died, died in prison, the cause of death was "suicide in fear of crime", and there was no proof of his death.

Chu Ling had clearly told Jiang Chi that Li Cangfeng was just suffering on behalf of others, and the real murderer was related to the King of Huainan, and Jiang Chi also sent people to protect Li Cangfeng in the prison, but things still went as they did, never to return. up.

Because the murderer was from Jiang Guo, Wu Guo had a very good reason to make things difficult for Jiang Chi. Group after group of negotiators came, either to cede land or to ask for gold and silver, but the terms of compensation were always uncertain. .

During the two months, Jiang Chi seldom had time to stay overnight at Fengwu Palace, and every time he could only come in a hurry and leave hastily, leaving Chen Ling with an increasingly haggard face and a tired back.

It wasn't until Chen Ling discovered that, in fact, whether it was a change in his mentality after rebirth, a change in Jiang Chi's temper, or even a small inadvertent incident that deviated from the track in his memory, these were compared with certain historical events. , how insignificant it is.

History cannot be changed.

Manpower can only affect the development process and certain details of history, but cannot change the direction and final result of historical development.

It should come, it will always come.

So...does it mean that Li Country will still be destroyed by Jiang Country?Will his father, queen mother and Yun'er be killed by Jiang Chi himself?And after two years, he will still be imprisoned in Yuanhua Palace... to die again?

When thinking of this, Chen Ling was being held in Jiang Chi's arms.

The Fengwu Palace in the middle of the night was a bit more quiet than during the day. In the darkness, even each other's breathing could be heard so clearly.

Just now, the two of them took a shower together, and Chen Ling's hair was still a little damp, with a fresh scent of soap locust.

Xu noticed Chen Ling's absent-mindedness. Jiang Chi gently stroked his loose long hair, and whispered in his ear, "What are you thinking?"

"..." Chen Ling came back to his senses, the fear of Jiang Chi that had faded away after two months began to grow in his heart again, he forced himself not to show it in front of Jiang Chi, turned over, Chu Ling rested his head on Jiang Chi's arm, huddled in his arms, and asked softly: "Achi, will you...will one day, I mean if, will you kill my father and mother? "

"..." Jiang Chi was stunned by the question, and after a while, he said, "Why do you ask this?"

"No reason... I just want to know." Chen Ling hugged Jiang Chi, and stubbornly wanted an answer. His voice sounded a little dull, and he said, "If one day I make you angry, very angry, very angry The kind, would you..."

"No." Jiang Chi interrupted him before he finished speaking, patted Chen Ling's back to comfort him, Jiang Chi said slowly: "I love you, so I will never hurt you Treasure people."

"!" Chen Ling's heart trembled slightly, and he raised his head suddenly, but the light was too dim, and he couldn't see Jiang Chi's expression clearly when he spoke, but the other party's tone made him feel extremely solemn.For a moment, Chen Ling didn't know whether he should believe Jiang Chi's words. Jiang Chi in his previous life kept saying that he loved him, so wouldn't he just ruin his country and family?But there was a voice in his heart that kept persuading Chen Ling, making him choose to believe.

After being silent for a while, Chen Ling gently closed his eyes, and whispered, "What if I still want to escape?"

Jiang Chi's back stiffened, and he subconsciously tightened his arms, holding Chen Ling tightly in his arms.

Chen Ling let out an "um" in pain.

Knowing that he had accidentally hurt Chen Ling, Jiang Chi relaxed his arm a little bit guiltily. He sighed, half joking and half threatening: "If you mention the word escape again, believe it or not, I'll lock you up." Leng Gong personally forged a golden chain to lock you up?"

Hearing the word "golden chain", Chen Ling's eyes showed bitterness and sarcasm, thinking, this point, the other party really hasn't changed at all.

Chen Ling nodded, and said lightly, "I believe it."

It was originally just a joke, and Jiang Chi didn't pay attention when he said it, but when Chen Ling said the word "I believe" in a flat tone, he suddenly felt so painful that his whole heart was pulled together.

"Zi Ling...I..." Jiang Chi wanted to explain, telling Chen Ling that he was just joking, but his words seemed to be choked up, and he couldn't say anything.

Chen Ling didn't seem to be too entangled in that sentence, but said, "I'm a little tired, let's go to sleep." It's not that he doesn't want to hear Jiang Chi's explanation, but he knows that it's better not to listen to some words , It is better not to believe it.

There were too many disappointments, Chen Ling would not be so stupid as to trade despair for hope again.

"Go to sleep when you're tired." Jiang Chi caressed Chen Ling's back again and again, coaxing him like a doll. Afraid of disturbing Chen Ling's sleep, Jiang Chi lowered his head and whispered in his ear: " It seems that the matter of Wu Guo should come to an end now, I heard from Xiaotao that your legs are ready to walk, promise...tomorrow, let's go out of the palace."

Chen Ling shrank his neck to avoid Jiang Chi's warm breath, and he gave a slight "hmm" as a response, and did not speak again.

Jiang Chi didn't tell Chen Ling how the last incident was resolved, and Chen Ling didn't ask either. Presumably, he paid some compensation just like in his previous life.Although he already knew Huainan King's intentions were wrong, Jiang Chi still had nothing to do with him.

The current Jiang Chi has methods, but after all, he has been on the throne for less than a year, and he has nothing to do with some high-ranking ministers in the court.

However, Chen Ling knew that according to the development of history, King Huainan would die miserably two years later, as would his relatives and himself.

Hearing Chen Ling's breathing become shallower, the tenderness in Jiang Chi's eyes gradually froze and slowly replaced by deepness.

Three days ago, Meng Yan sent someone to send the news that several generals headed by Qin Shan from Liguo had sneaked into the imperial capital in disguise a few months ago, and they have been hiding in the market waiting for the opportunity.At present, the place where they often stay is a troupe called "Hejiahuan". Qin Shan seems to be very familiar with the troupe leader, so these people occasionally appear on stage as "Wu Sheng" to sing.

However, the other party has not acted since they came to Jiang Country. It is hard to say what their so-called waiting time refers to.

Jiang Chi thought that it was indeed time to take Chen Ling out to watch a "good show" at the "Family Carnival".
