worthless [rebirth]

Liguo's winter is much colder than Jiangguo's. Although spring has begun, the ice and snow have not completely melted.

Jiang Chi was wearing a thick jacket and a fur windbreaker, but he still felt cold all over, without any warmth on his body.Such aversion to the cold may have something to do with him being imprisoned in a water prison with severed tendons before. The cold and dampness penetrated into his bones, and this ailment that hurts when he sees the wind may follow him for the rest of his life.

Chen Ling felt sorry for him, and in the past few years, various rare supplements have been sent to him one after another, but the injuries are still good and bad, and he is afraid of cold and wet.

Although Chen Ling also knew that this injury could not be easily repaired with a few tonics, he tried to make up for what he owed Jiang Chi in his previous life in different ways every day, and he would be even more uneasy if he didn't give those tonics.

In the first year or two since Chen Ling came to the throne, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty repeatedly advised Chen Ling to be the empress, but Chen Ling found excuses and calmly suppressed them.The relationship between him and Jiang Chi was more or less discussed by the palace people, and rumors were passed around, and soon it reached the ears of the ministers.

Besides, Chen Ling never deliberately concealed it from the outside world, but was struggling to find a suitable time to announce it to the world, so as to give Jiang Chi a title, the only and most honorable title.

Perhaps because he was afraid of Chen Ling's embarrassment, Jiang Chi had no requirements for "righteousness and integrity".When he was an emperor before, he was so exhausted that he almost became a short-lived ghost. Now he is happy to hide in Chen Ling's harem, drinking tea and admiring flowers leisurely, and he can live for a few more years.

However, as time passed, the ministers no longer mentioned the matter of making Chen Ling stand as an heir to the royal heirs. Anyway, he didn't listen to it, and instead fell into the monarch's complaint.If one day the monarch thinks about it and turns over the old account, he will suffer.

After the Spring Festival is the Shangyuan Festival.There are lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the Shangyuan Festival in Liguo is not inferior to the excitement of the Spring Festival.Coincidentally, a heavy snowfall a few days ago had melted all over the place, leaving only the high eaves of someone's house still dripping with snow, clear and cold.

At noon, when the sun was still low in the sky, many people were already busy hanging lanterns on both sides of the criss-crossed streets in the imperial city. There were palace lanterns and lotus lanterns in different shapes. Colorful decoupage.

Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Sun Wukong Three Fights against the Bone Demon, or more concisely, just mention a few words.The flying pen and ink reflect the beige lampshade of Yinghuo, which also has a special flavor.

When night falls, the lanterns all over the city are lit up.Under the black night sky, golden and red lanterns illuminate the imperial city brightly.Some people set up a high platform to guess lantern riddles, and there were red lanterns hanging in front of the platform and a string of colorful tassels hanging from it.The host yelled for a quiz with prizes, and the prizes included lanterns, hairpins, folding fans... Although they were not expensive, those who came to play didn't want to get lucky and have a happy holiday.

Chen Ling took Jiang Chi's hand and mixed in the crowd, his fingers intertwined from the moment he left the palace and never separated.The Lantern Festival was also celebrated in the palace, but there were many etiquettes. Although it was grand, it was not as lively as outside the palace, so the royal banquet was dismissed early, and Jiang Chi was taken out for a walk.

When he met an old man begging along the street, Chen Ling was in a good mood and wanted to reward him with a few taels of silver. When he touched his pocket, he remembered that he forgot to bring any money when he went out. Also, there was usually a row of people behind him when he went out of the palace, so he didn't need to pay for it himself. I went out alone with Jiang Chi today and forgot.So he looked around, but Jiang Chi only looked at him with a smile, making it clear that he had no help.

"..." The pause stopped, and the old man picked up the broken porcelain bowl and looked at it eagerly. It seemed a bit embarrassing if he didn't take out a few pennies to put it in, so he had to take off the jade pendant around his waist and give it away.

Turning around, there was a kowtow of gratitude from the old beggar man. He could always ask for more money during the New Year and festivals, or when he met someone's wedding.

"This is great, we both have nothing of value on us." Jiang Chi smiled, wearing a dark blue robe and a thick black cloak with a bluish-white fox tail around the neckline.The hairpin is still the truncated white jade hairpin, which seems to have never changed in the past few years. The long black hair is flying in the wind, with a few strands of silver in it.

Even though he said that, his tone didn't mean to complain at all.Chen Ling gave him a sideways glance, "You really don't have any money with you?"

Jiang Chi stood still, as if he was being searched by Chen Ling, and said with a smile, "If you don't believe me, touch it." Chen Ling saw something else in Jiang Chi's eyes, and his face flushed slightly. He turned his head and said awkwardly: "Then let's go shopping."

At this time, not far away, there was a lot of people in the audience, and it turned out that a new round of prize quiz had begun.I don't know what the prize is this time, but it has attracted passers-by who are playing in the street to surround it.Following the flow of people down the stage, they saw a pair of orange-pink Kongming lanterns.

It was nothing unusual, just as he was about to pull Jiang Chi away, he heard a few people talking beside him. "Ah, aren't those concentric lamps? It's interesting to put them in pairs. It's best if the two hearts are happy." "Then what if they are opened separately?" "It doesn't matter if they are opened separately. But they put the same pair of lamps on, it is God's will in the dark, maybe it can make a good story."

After listening to those people talking for a long time, Chen Ling could only conclude with one sentence, that is, this pair of Kongming lanterns, he was going to order.Looking at Jiang Chi again, although he didn't say anything, his cold eyes became a little warmer because of the bright light, and they lit up brilliantly.

Look at the mystery hanging under the lamp: it is unusual for Chang'e to have no daughters, and she was originally interested but hesitated.Dongting has become a mulberry field, and it is hard to find a double pair of feasts.The waves curb the flying boat, the two trees are not forests, and the crescent moon is extraordinarily bright outside the sky.
