worthless [rebirth]

Jiang Chi's astonished expression in front of the city gate kept appearing in front of Chen Ling's eyes when he heard him say the word "Mo Ziling". Chen Ling thought Jiang Chi would refute, but he didn't.

Jiang Chi seemed unable to figure out why Chen Ling asked such a question, but he understood why Chen Ling had become cold and depressed in the past few months.

Undoubtedly, Chen Ling and Qin Shan were captured and brought back, Qin Shan was taken away after being shot in the shoulder by an arrow, and Chen Ling was imprisoned in Chengqian Palace.

Sitting anxiously by the bed, Chen Ling wasn't sure what was waiting for him.In his previous life, he had already seen Jiang Chi's methods of torturing people. Every time he escaped and was caught, he would be tossed half of his life.

What he was more worried about was Qin Shan.Although Jiang Chi's methods were cruel in his previous life, he never wanted to put him to death, but Qin Shan was different.I was at least a slightly valuable "substitute" for Jiang Chi, but Qin Shan was nothing, and had a history of assassinating him before. It can be said that there was a deep grudge with Jiang Chi, and it was inevitable that he would not be executed.

"crunch-"

Just as Chen Ling was feeling restless, the door was pushed open. Chen Ling looked up and saw that it was Jiang Chi.

At that time, Jiang Chi had already changed his clothes. When he was chasing Chen Ling just now, he was wearing a black brocade robe with gold silk cloud patterns. The heavy and depressing color not only gave people a sense of majesty, but also made people feel cloudy.

But now, Jiang Chi was dressed in a moon-white satin robe trimmed with silver thread, and his black hair was half-tied, which made him look much softer than before.

In his memory, no matter in his previous life or in his present life, apart from bright yellow, Jiang Chi's body was black and dark blue. This was the first time Chen Ling saw Jiang Chi wearing this kind of plain clothes, with a bit of laziness and wantonness, which was unusual. The son of a wealthy family doesn't look like an emperor anymore.

Such Jiang Chi made Chen Ling feel dazed for a moment.It wasn't until the man approached that he came back to his senses, stared at him warily, and said, "What did you do to Qin Shan?"

"It's locked up." Jiang Chi didn't mean to hide anything, and said lightly, "I said, unless he leaves Jiang country, he will definitely not let him go when he meets again." After a pause, he looked at him deeply. Chen Ling said, "Do you think so in your heart?"

"What do you think?" Chen Ling looked at Jiang Chi coldly.

"In front of the city gate, you said..." Jiang Chi's voice was a little low: "Mo Ziling..."

"..." Although he had known about Mo Ziling's existence for a long time, but now that he heard this name from the other party's mouth, Chen Ling still felt a chill in his heart, accompanied by an imperceptible tingling pain in his heart.Looking up, with a sneer, Chen Ling said, "Since you already know, stop deceiving yourself and others. If you don't love me, let me go. Jiang Chi, I don't want to hate you, because hating myself has already made me Physically and mentally exhausted."

"Zi Ling!" Jiang Chi called out, taking a step forward.

"Don't call me that name, it makes me sick!" Chen Ling said, getting up to avoid Jiang Chi.

"Why don't you ask me and keep it in your heart? Don't we even have this kind of trust?" Looking at Chen Ling's indifferent back, Jiang Chi said slowly: "What if I say no? I never put You see it as someone else."

"Oh, what about that painting?" Chen Ling closed his eyes and sighed, "Jiang Chi, don't you think it's ridiculous to say this in front of the evidence?"

"What painting?" Jiang Chi frowned, and turned Chen Ling's shoulder so that he was facing him, but saw a teardrop in the corner of Chen Ling's eye.

No matter how indifferent he pretended, Chen Ling still couldn't hide his inner fragility.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, how could I not believe you?" Chen Ling opened his eyes, and let the tear slip down, falling on the back of Jiang Chi's hand, cold.

"If you don't know lovesickness in your life, you will only love it, and you will hurt lovesickness. Your body is like floating clouds, your heart is like flying catkins, and your breath is like gossamer..." Chen Ling said each word lightly, smiling desolately.

Jiang Chimu took a step back and asked in surprise, "Where did you see this painting?"

"It's in Fengwu Palace, on the day of your birthday." Chen Ling said, "That's why I know that I'm just a substitute for you. If that's the case, please hold me high and let me go..."

……

"Your Majesty, Your Highness went to the study to get the paintings, and when she came back, she fell heavily, and the corner of her mouth was scratched."

"Your Majesty, Your Highness is very angry. In the past few days, you must be careful not to have any ups and downs."

"Achi, you always say you love me, but you never say you love me."

"Is it my face?"

……

It turned out that this was what Chen Ling thought in his heart, and how did he answer him?

"That's right, I just love Ling'er's good looks."

At that time, Chen Ling must have thought that what he cared about was his similar appearance to Mo Ziling.

"It's not what you think." Jiang Chi's heart hurt a little, he pulled Chen Ling into his arms and hugged him lightly, sighed helplessly and distressed, and said, "It's not Mo Ziling in that painting..."

"Let me go!" Chen Ling struggled for a while but failed to do so. After noticing what Jiang Chi said, he calmed down, raised his head to look at Jiang Chi, and said, "No?"

"I remember that all the paintings were burned by my father five years ago. I didn't know there was another one and you saw it, but you misunderstood, the painting is not..."

"If you say it's not, then it's not? The two paintings are exactly the same!" Chen Ling said, pushing Jiang Chi.

"I said no, of course not." Jiang Chi said, his voice lowered a bit, "Because the painting...is you."

"?!" Chen Ling was startled.

"It can only be you..." Jiang Chi said.

"That painting was painted five years ago, before you and I met, how can you say that it is me?" Chen Ling said: "Even if you want to lie to me, you have to come up with a convincing reason."

"I don't know if I can explain it clearly." Jiang Chi smiled bitterly, looked at Chen Ling and said seriously: "Will you believe my explanation?"

"Can I still believe it?" Chen Ling asked coldly.

Jiang Chi was taken aback for a moment, then sighed lightly.Let go of Chen Ling, pull him to sit in front of the stool, and after getting him a cup of tea, he said slowly: "Whether you believe it or not, I should explain it."

Sitting on the stool, Chen Ling looked at his nose, his nose, and his heart, with an impatient face, but he didn't make a sound, allowing Jiang Chi to say to him: "The matter started seven years ago, the day my mother died. I suffered from a serious illness, and I was in a coma without taking any medicine, and everyone said that His Royal Highness is too sad, and I am afraid that I will go with him."

Chen Ling's eyes flickered for a moment. He knew that Jiang Guo's empress died early, but he didn't know that Jiang Chi also almost died at the time.

Seeing that Chen Ling didn't respond, Jiang Chi smiled and said, "The common people only know one thing, but not the other. They were in a coma for three days. After three days, although there was no medication, the illness was cured. Only I know, in fact, those three days I'm not in a coma, but just dreaming the same dream over and over again."

"Dream?" Chen Ling had a slight reaction, because he himself often had some inexplicable dreams, so he couldn't help but talk to Jiang Chi when he talked about dreams.

Jiang Chi nodded, "In the dream there was always a person who repeatedly said that he would never leave me, but I couldn't see his facial features clearly. You know, my drawing skills are good, so I wanted to draw the appearance of that person in the dream. Come out. At first, I just drew outlines. Later, when I met Mo Ziling and saw his appearance, I felt that he was a bit like the person in my dream. I asked him to be my accompanying reader, serving the pen and ink. The appearance of the painting completes the painting. But he and I are just writing with a pen and ink."

"How do you know he's not the person in your dream?" Chen Ling said, it wasn't that he didn't believe Jiang Chi's words, but that Jiang Chi would see a boy who looked like himself in his dream, which was a bit too bizarre, which made him very surprised It's hard to believe what the other person said is true.

"I used to think so too, but that dream has never stopped." Jiang Chi said: "The more and more portraits are drawn, the appearance of the characters becomes clearer and clearer. Ziling...I mean Mo Ziling, in fact...he and That painting was also different."

"Ok?"

"You should have seen it. The person in the painting smiles very warmly, but Mo Ziling has always been very calm." Jiang Chi said, "Just like you, he doesn't like to smile very much, so I saw you in the city. At that moment, I was not completely sure that you were the person I was looking for, until I brought you back and found that I would never have that dream again, I was not sure that you were the person I was looking for..." After finishing speaking, Jiang Chi looked at Chen Ling with some guilt, and said, "You don't think...that I brought you back just based on a dream, is it too hasty?"

"Why is this..." Chen Ling murmured, if what Jiang Chi said was true, why did he keep dreaming about himself?Seven years ago, the two didn't know each other, so why talk about dreaming?

Unless... Jiang Chi is also reborn?

Thinking of this, Chen Ling was frightened by himself.He looked at Jiang Chi suddenly, full of disbelief.

But soon he realized that if Jiang Chi was also reborn, many things would not make sense.Not to mention that the other party's temperament has changed, and he doesn't remember how he treated him like this in his previous life. The key is that Chen Ling is very sure that he never said "I will not leave you" to Jiang Chi before he was reborn.

So, was Jiang Chi lying, or did something happen after his death in his previous life that caused Jiang Chi to be reborn?
