Rebirth: Thousand Miles of Smoke

The ground closed again, Ling Chentian kissed the back of his white hand, stroked a few strands of hair from his cheeks for him, lowered his head and kissed the corner of Lin Ziyao's mouth like a dragonfly.

No matter what your decision is, I will never let you go back, Ziyao.

Tianming had been waiting outside for a long time, but he didn't dare to disturb him until the door opened and Ling Chentian came out. Then he stepped forward to report the news from the carrier pigeon: "Your Majesty, Ling Guo sent Si Chenglie as an envoy to Ling Guo. It can't catch up with your enthronement."

"Let them go, probably King Rong has thought of something again." Ling Chentian sneered, Lin Ziyao was in his bedroom, no matter how capable Si Chenglie was, he couldn't take him away, so he didn't need to worry about this issue Afraid that Si Chenglie might have another purpose, Ling Chen Tianchao walked to his study, "How is the construction outside the palace?"

"It is estimated that it will take another month to complete."

"How's the recruiting going?" Stepping into the study, Ling Chentian walked to the side of the sand table, looked at the formation on it, and fiddled with it casually.

This casual fiddle was seen by Tianming, the flag of the small city beside Lingguo had been removed, and Tianming reported the recruitment in detail: "The national treasury may..."

"The matter of the canal will be slowed down for the time being." Ling Chentian said, looking at the sand table, "First settle the matter of recruiting troops, and ask General Luo to come over and discuss together."

"Yes!" Tianming looked at the sand table and was eager to try it. Although he knew that it was a waste of money, but as a man of flesh and blood, he should be more enlightened if he had that ambition. He never regretted following such an ambitious master.

46. ​​Who is, who is not, enthroned

Sitting on the rocking chair in front of the palace gate, Lin Ziyao looked at the blue sky and wondered what he was thinking. The two maids behind him looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward, bowed down and said respectfully: "My lord, the weather It's cold, you still..."

Lin Ziyao opened his eyes and stood up: "Where is Ling Chentian?"

The two twin maids looked at each other, and then they were sure that the other party was talking about their majesty, so Lin Ziyao called their majesty in a calm manner, but he didn't dare to neglect this person: "Your Majesty is dealing with official business. , Tomorrow is the enthronement ceremony, so I may still be discussing with the ministers, and I guess it is almost time to come back.

The palace maid named Bi Yue asked: "Is the young master hungry? Do you need a maid for lunch, or wait for His Majesty to eat together?"

Before Ling Chentian left, he had told the two of them to take good care of Lin Ziyao. How dare they slack off on this person who can enter His Majesty's bedroom. Seeing that it was getting late, they asked Lin Ziyao for his opinion, but Lin Ziyao didn't agree. Answered, looked at the flowers in front of the door, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and seemed to be asleep again.

The two maids were a little anxious, but Lin Ziyao refused to eat, they couldn't force him to eat, right when they were both anxious, Ling Chentian came back, and they were about to salute, but Ling Chentian was He waved his hands to signal them not to disturb Lin Ziyao, and the two stepped back, leaving only Lin Ziyao and Ling Chentian behind.

Lin Ziyao was not asleep, and knew who was coming, but he just didn't want to open his eyes, and Ling Chentian also knew that the other party was not really asleep, but he still stood aside and asked softly: "Aren't you hungry, listen Hongyue said that you didn't eat much in the morning."

"What do you mean?" Lin Ziyao opened his eyes, then shook the chain on his feet, and asked.

"The chain is very long. I specially made it very thin, not heavy, and it won't affect you." Ling Chentian squatted down, looked at Lin Ziyao at the same level, "As long as you run away from me, I won't lock you. you."

Looking into Ling Chentian's eyes, Lin Ziyao was a little puzzled, why this person insisted on being so persistent, and even used such extreme methods, Ling Chentian reached out to touch his cheek, but Lin Ziyao avoided it with a glance. , Ling Chentian's hand paused, and then covered Lin Ziyao's hand:

"After the residence outside the palace is built, you will no longer be locked."

"That's the same as locking me with a chain, isn't it? You'll let me out? What are you, Jinwu Zangjiao?" Lin Ziyao wasn't angry, but his tone was a little mocking. The man who was still determined was suddenly caught by this man. Break, this disrespectful attitude made him unacceptable.

Ling Chentian was silent, looked at him, and didn't explain. Originally, he wanted to let nature take its course, but he realized that it was too difficult for him. When he turned around in that town and found that Lin Ziyao was nowhere to be seen, Panic, anxiety, fear, such negative emotions made him unable to think much at all.

Even if people who knew him would definitely follow Lin Ziyao, he felt scared at that moment. How could someone so conceited like him feel scared?Ling Chentian admitted that he must have this person in his life, and he will not let go again, whether he is domineering or unreasonable, in short, as long as he keeps him by his side, he will do anything.

"I won't go, but you untie the chain on my feet. *very literary*" Hearing the crisp sound of the chain falling to the ground, Lin Ziyao frowned. He felt very uncomfortable doing so, and looked up at Ling Chen Tian said again, "Get rid of it, I promise, I won't leave you."

"Haven't had lunch yet, shall we have something to eat first?"

But Ling Chentian avoided it, and Lin Ziyao was pulled up by him, hugged him, and walked to the side of the table in the house. The table was full of his favorite side dishes, and even catered to Lin Ziyao's taste. The dishes for this table were made by a cook from the Dong country.

Knowing that Ling Chentian would not untie the chain for himself, Lin Ziyao could only sit on the stool, eating every mouthful, ignoring Ling Chentian's gracious service for him, he could do whatever he wanted .

"I asked Tianming to take care of the matter in Hualien. I guarantee that she is safe."

Hearing this, Lin Ziyao raised his head and asked, "Then, can she just accompany me?"

"No." Ling Chentian said decisively, "It is very dangerous to take her into the palace now. Si Chengrong seems to have suspected that I hijacked the ship and took you away. Now that Si Chenglie is going to Lingguo as an envoy, he will be there in three days. Arriving in the Ling Kingdom, I'm afraid he has already prepared for it, and bringing Hualien into the palace at this time will arouse his suspicion."

He lowered his head somewhat disappointed, Lin Ziyao didn't say anything, after a few mouthfuls, he lost his appetite, but Ling Chentian said: "If you don't want to escape any more, after a month, the palace outside the palace will be completed." , let you reunite, okay?"

Lin Ziyao hummed, without any resistance, not even a word of rebuttal, the quietness made Ling Chentian a little worried, but after all the good words were said, he also collected a bunch of things from the treasury to pass the time for him, He even prepared a bow and arrow specially for him, so that Lin Ziyao could go to the garden to practice on a whim.

Ling Chentian had already tried his best to tease him, so as not to let him be so bored here, even as soon as he finished his official duties, he would come back to accompany him immediately, but Lin Ziyao still looked like this, thinking that this was just a At first, Lin Ziyao wasn't used to it yet, so it might take some time for him to get used to it.

Tomorrow is the grand enthronement ceremony, Ling Chentian is so busy at this time, the whole palace is also extremely busy, even the maids and eunuchs walking on the road are in a hurry, they don't even have time to say hello.

Except for the Yangming Palace, it was as quiet as ever. Occasionally, you could hear the sound of flipping through books, or the sound of drawing a bow and releasing an arrow. The two maids are twin sisters who serve Ling Chentian in small roles. They don't talk much, but they are very clever Very, otherwise Ling Chentian wouldn't let the two of them serve Lin Ziyao.

Seeing that Lin Ziyao had finished practicing bow and arrow, Biyue stepped forward to put a clean brocade handkerchief on the ground, Lin Ziyao raised her hand to take it, turned around, and pulled the chain on her feet, the sound of the iron chain made Lin Ziyao slightly frown, and walked into the house Go, today is Ling Chentian's enthronement ceremony.

He looked up at the sky, even here, he could hear the cheers, the voice resounding throughout the sky: "Long live your majesty, long live your majesty!" He had once witnessed the ascension to the throne, which was magnificent and even shocking. That is the reputation that only those who stand at the highest point can get.

Who would have known that the man on the throne would use his methods to make the Ling Kingdom stronger and stronger, and the man who carried the tyrant on his back would be a great addition to history, no matter what the man's nature was, as A king, a king who opened up the land for the Ling country, is indeed successful.

Therefore, no matter how people in later generations will evaluate his behavior, whether it is that he extorts money or wastes money, no one can erase this man's achievements. This man is destined to be the one who stands at the top. Domineering, ambitious, too powerful.

Lin Ziyao sat on the edge of the bed, dragging his chin, resentment, it doesn't count, but he is very disgusted that Ling Chentian locked himself up like this, he originally liked freedom, being locked up by Ling Chentian like this would only remind him of In the previous life, the scene where my hands and feet were locked to move rocks, the days when I was not free and could only look up at the birds in the sky, really, I don’t want to recall it again.

Sighing slightly, he glanced at the chain on his ankle, Lin Ziyao leaned over and pulled it. He used a hairpin to pry it, but it didn't work. It should be opened with a key, but the key was in Ling Chen's hand. He didn't know where it was on Tian's body, maybe it was on his body.

"My lord, don't pull it, there will be marks." Lin Ziyao was already fair, but when he pulled it like this, there were red marks on his exposed ankle. The two of them will suffer. From Ling Chentian's attitude towards Lin Ziyao, they dare not relax in any way towards this man. They have served Ling Chentian's two children since childhood.
