Quick travel: I rely on the childbirth system to pamper my harem

"Lantern Festival?" Liu Qiuqiu's eyes lit up and she really wanted to give it a try.

The waiter said louder, "Yes, it's the annual Lantern Festival. It snowed this year, so there will definitely be more people and it will be more lively. You might even meet your soulmate by then."

Liu Qiuqiu couldn't help but look at Zhou Lin, her eyes flickering as she asked, "Divine Doctor Zhou, can I go?"

Everyone else also looked at Zhou Lin.

Zhou Lin couldn't resist the attack of these eyes, and hesitated for a while before saying: "As long as I follow you, theoretically you can go, but Qiqi, you can't be as unrestrained as when you were playing in the snow."

Liu Qiuqiu swore hurriedly, just like a child: "I promise to be obedient."

After saying that, he looked at Ji Qingning and Jun Jiuchen again: "Qingning, are you and Mr. going?"

"Since you all are going there, you have to go and take a look too." Jun Jiuchen shook his sleeves and prepared to go out.

But when he saw Ji Qingning didn't move, he turned around and said kindly: "The Saint has probably never seen such an unprecedented grand lantern festival. Even though there were some in Southern Xinjiang before, this is Lintong, so it's a little different."

"go together."

Ji Qingning didn't want to spoil the fun, so he stood up and said, "Then I will accompany you reluctantly."

A few people went out, and before they even got close to the main venue of the lantern festival, they heard the sound of stringed instruments, countless lotus lanterns, and fireworks blooming in the sky.

Lanterns of all sizes are hung everywhere, and the place is decorated with lights and colors, just like the New Year.

Men and women were vying with each other in their most gorgeous attire.

Ji Qingning followed behind Liu Qiuqiu, worried that something might happen to them, but Jun Jiuchen suddenly grabbed her wrist and whispered, "Can't the Saint see it?"

"What?" Ji Qingning looked at Jun Jiuchen in confusion.

Jun Jiuchen lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Zhou Lin likes Liu Qiuqiu, and their fate has long been destined. We might as well not disturb them and give them a chance."

He leaned close enough for the voice to reach his ears softly.

There was also a tingling feeling that made Ji Qingning's heart tremble slightly. She bit her lip, thinking she was having an illusion.

Subconsciously touch your heart.

That feeling is still there.

Ji Qingning took a step back and kept a distance from Jun Jiuchen: "But doesn't Liu Qiuqiu still like Xiao Lanjing? Is it really possible for her to be with Zhou Lin?"

With another man in her heart, no matter how hard Zhou Lin tries, he probably won't succeed.

Unless, Liu Qiuqiu's feelings for Xiao Lanjing are not love.

Or maybe he doesn't love her anymore, then Zhou Lin's protection will have meaning.

"Maybe it will succeed. Besides, if you don't fight for it, how can you know the result?" Jun Jiuchen looked at Ji Qingning deeply, "Saint, is there someone you miss in your heart?"

Ji Qingning touched his chest.

After what happened in her past life, she had long since lost the ability to love.

"No." Ji Qingning paused, "I belong to Southern Xinjiang, not just to one person. I love my people deeply. As for other people, they are not very important to me."

"The Saint is truly selfless."

Jun Jiuchen sighed.

"Where is the sir?" Ji Qingning suddenly asked back.

Jun Jiuchen fell into reminiscence and said slowly: "I used to have the same idea as the Saint Lady, but later I found that it was useless and it was better for me to live a carefree life."

Ji Qingning said: "But I don't think you are the kind of person who would abandon his people."

Jun Jiuchen was silent for a while and then said, "The Saint Lady really has a keen eye for talent."

"Sir, you really like to joke." Ji Qingning could feel that Jun Jiuchen seemed to be hiding a lot of things, but he was unwilling to say it out loud. Since he was unwilling to say it, she didn't like to force him to ask.

The two walked to the highest attic and looked down from above, where they could see the lanterns and candles.

The scenery is exceptionally beautiful.

Ji Qingning was sitting against the railing, and the next moment his body swayed and he almost fell down.

"Be careful!" Jun Jiuchen quickly grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms.

Their eyes met, very close.

It seemed as if they could hear each other's heartbeats.

Ji Qingning stood firm and came out of Jun Jiuchen's arms: "Thank you for your help, sir."

"Saint, you better be careful."

Jun Jiuchen retracted his hand, leaned on the railing like her, and then looked at the moonlight in the sky, which was very bright.

“I’m the one who was abandoned.”

Suddenly, Jun Jiuchen said something out of the blue.

Ji Qingning didn't understand at first, but he soon realized that Jun Jiuchen meant that he had never abandoned his people, but was abandoned by them.

"When the country was destroyed and my family was ruined, I was the only one guarding the city, but they fled in all directions."

"I should have died from a thousand arrows piercing my heart."

Jun Jiuchen looked at the full moon in the sky and said, "I don't know why, but I didn't die. I even came back to life and became Jun Jiuchen. It's called rebirth, but it's not rebirth."

"Because I am still me, but not me."

"Since then, I have become an immortal old monster." Jun Jiuchen turned his head to look at Ji Qingning, then pointed at his heart, "Here, there have been countless swords and knives, but now there is no trace at all."

In fact, when you say these words, you should be extremely sad.

But Ji Qingning did not feel any sadness from Jun Jiuchen, only a free and easy feeling.

Perhaps, this is the self-control that allows you to live hundreds of more years.

Or maybe Jun Jiuchen had already become indifferent to all this.

"Have you ever hated him, sir?"

"No, I just felt that my efforts were worthless, but later I realized that I was wrong. In these chaotic times, everyone wants to survive, so I can't blame anyone."

"I was wrong to impose my emotions on others."

Ji Qingning said meaningfully: "Did you have someone you liked at that time?"

"Why would the Saint ask this for no reason?"

"I just feel that sir, you seem to have never experienced love affairs between men and women." Ji Qingning said frankly.

Jun Jiuchen narrowed his eyes and said, "Even if you haven't experienced it, you've always seen it."

Ji Qingning covered her mouth and chuckled.

I just think that Jun Jiuchen's serious and competitive look gives people an extremely cute feeling.

"What are you laughing at?"

Ji Qingning waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I just feel that sometimes you don't look like an old monster, but rather very young."

At the same time, fireworks flashed across the sky.

Ji Qingning glanced over casually and murmured, "So beautiful."

“Things that are fleeting are indeed beautiful.”

Ji Qingning said: "When the empress got married, it should have been more grand than it is now. By the way, what status did the empress give Xiao Lanjing?"

"The eldest son of the Marquis of Pingyang."

"Marquis Pingyang?" Ji Qingning didn't know much about Lintong's relationship, nor did he know who Marquis Pingyang was.

Jun Jiuchen knew this and patiently explained, "Marquis Pingyang is the number one military commander in Lintong. She has fought in many places and is a close confidant of the empress who has entrusted her with important tasks. She has the power to command the heroes in Lintong."

"Marquis Pingyang... Military power, this Xiao Lanjing really chooses his family members. It would be inappropriate to change to someone else."

"And this empress, can't she really see what Xiao Lanjing is thinking?"

It was obvious that he was taking advantage of her, but the empress actually agreed!
