After rebirth, I was entangled by the enemy's protons

Chapter 186 The Kite Belonging to Chu Zhao

Chu Zhao stared blankly at the girl in front of him, raised his hand subconsciously, and rubbed his eyes.

It's not an illusion, it's really a thought.

Chu Yi, who was wearing a snow-white jacket and skirt, was walking towards him slowly under Xia Ying. Xiao Yan also followed her, holding an umbrella for her to block the wind and snow, step by step, with gentle eyes.

"Chu Yi?" His voice was hoarse, rough in the cold wind.

"Fourth brother, will you still avoid me this time?" Chu Yi stopped before walking in front of him, and asked softly through the soft snow between him.

Yin Bing came out, took out the token of Controlling Hesi and showed it to others: "Princess, I have something to explain, please step back."

"Yes." The person escorting Chu Zhao immediately retreated a few feet away, leaving a large space for a few people to talk.

Seeing Xiao Yan next to him, Chu Zhao looked away again, and finally focused on the snowflakes accumulated on Chu Yi's shoulder.

She was here, waiting for him for a long time.

The moment Xiao Yan saw Chu Zhao's eyes looking over, the tenderness in his eyes turned into sharp ice.

There was a sneer on the corner of his lips, and his amber phoenix eyes were extremely gloomy, as if he had met a wild beast competing for prey with him, and there was a hostility hidden in his eyes.

Chu Yi noticed something, and turned his head to look at Xiao Yan strangely, but he quickly restrained his hostility, showing a silent and innocent expression, his pale eyes were clean.

"what happened?"

Chu Yi shook her head, thinking that maybe she was hallucinating, otherwise, how could she feel that the young man beside her was so much like the little one raised by her mother just now to protect the food.

Looking at the interaction between the two, Chu Zhao remembered that when he first saw Xiao Yan, he felt uneasy and felt that this person was extremely dangerous.

However, it is such a dangerous person who can protect Chu Yi.

Only when facing Chu Yi, this ferocious beast would put away its fangs and claws, and behave obediently as a civet cat on human knees.

Chu Zhao subconsciously wanted to find a hand warmer for Chu Yi, but found that her bright and beautiful face was flushed, and the jacket and skirt she was wearing should be very warm, with golden patterns embroidered on it, which was thick and still looked like Princess Yongning. Bright.

She already had Xiao Yan by her side, so she no longer needed to secretly protect her in his palm, not to mention, his existence would only hurt her.

"Princess, you don't need to call me fourth brother anymore. I am just a commoner now." Chu Zhao said, his long and narrow eyes filled with sadness.

"What are you talking about?" Chu Yi gritted her teeth, turned around and took the big and small bags from the horseback, "As long as you think about it, you have always been the fourth brother in my heart! Isn't it like this since I was a child?"

No matter what Chu Zhao did, she still remembered the good times when they were young, and she already knew that everything Chu Zhao did was to protect herself, but he used it in the wrong place.

Chu Zhao opened his eyes slightly, and the surrounding wind and snow grew a little bit, and the cold snowflakes floated into his eyes. He said mockingly, "Princess probably doesn't like the fourth brother Cao Min."

Chu Yi shook her head: "Although you often complained to your father when you were young, Chu Xiaowu and I were punished; although you were strict and rigid, and spoke badly; By the way, even though you are from the Fan family..."

Chu Zhao: "..."

She mentioned a series of Chu Zhao's shortcomings, but Xiao Yan's face became gloomy a little bit, and the eyes he looked at Chu Zhao became more and more displeased.

Immediately, Chu Yi's words changed: "However, whether a person is bad or not, and whether he is likable or not, is not determined by words, but proved by actions. Fourth brother always said that he hates me, but you have never done anything to hurt me thing, at least not yet.”

Her voice was a little choked up, and Xiao Yan's expression became even uglier.

Suddenly, a strange picture flashed in his mind.

He saw Chu Zhao dead.

Xiao Yan's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart beat faster for a moment.

The scene flashed away, it should be the scene from the previous life, Xiao Yan could only see the gloomy young man in front of him with a sword stuck in his chest, the blood was thick enough to dye his black robe red, and gathered into a pool at his feet pool of blood.

Good to die!Xiao Yan's mood suddenly improved.

However, he couldn't remember the cause and effect of Chu Zhao's death. At least when Ah Yi died, this bastard was still the emperor of Nanyan Xiaoyao.

Xiao Yan tried his best to recall, but felt that Chu Zhao's face was blurred.

"I asked before, do you remember what happened when we were young, and you didn't answer, so now I want to ask you again, Chu Zhao, do you remember what happened when we were young?" Chu Yi asked.

Chu Zhao's heart trembled slightly, as if his heart was hit hard by her eyes, sore and astringent.

Memories of my childhood flashed in my mind involuntarily.

The soft little dumpling held his hand, and asked with sparkling eyes: "Fourth brother, can you play with Yi'er all the time?"

"Okay." He said with a smile.

"Fourth brother, can you help Yi'er pick the kite hanging from the tree? Chu Xiaowu fell off his ass climbing a tree, he didn't care about me and ran away."

With red eyes, the little girl pointed to the top of the tallest tree in the imperial garden.

A gust of wind blows and rolls up the magpie kites wrapped around the branches.

"The kite still flew away."

The little girl cried "Wow".

"Fourth brother will tie a new one for you." He raised his head, looked at the kite flying away, and said seriously.

"Yi'er likes the fourth brother the most!"

She is the youngest little princess in the royal family, the little tail that follows him, the person who comforts him when he is most desperate, and the girl he loves deeply in this life.

And now, she's grown up.

"remember."

Chu Zhao pursed his lips tightly, his voice low and hoarse.

More than just remembering, he never forgot.

It is those memories about the past that support him through spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Chu Yi looked at him, and the Chu Zhao in front of him did not follow the path of his previous life in the end.

He didn't try to usurp the throne, didn't hurt her, and didn't run away when the country was subjugated. Moreover, before that, he dealt a fatal blow to the Fan family.

The current him should not be compared with his previous life, and he does not have to take responsibility for the mistakes he has not committed.

"This... this is milk cake, you can eat it on the road, it's made by Xunchun."

She thought for a while, smiled brightly, and stuffed the things in her hands into Chu Zhao's arms one by one.

"These two jade pendants... have no meaning. The key is that the material is very good suet jade. If you run out of money, you can go to a pawn shop to pawn it, or use it to bribe others... But don't say I taught you! "

"Here is a suit of autumn clothes. I asked the people from the Shangyi Bureau to make them according to your usual size. They are all made of very comfortable fabrics. They can be worn for at least three to five years. Fortunately, you are not growing any longer."

"You also need to keep these bank notes. When you arrive in Liangzhou, you can also buy a house to live in after working."

Not long after, Chu Zhao's arms were already full.

"I...don't need so much."

"Not too much, not too much, your horse Chu Yao is ready, and those guard princes have also taken care of it, so they won't embarrass you."

As Chu Yi said, he handed him the box containing a petal of the snowy lotus, and explained to him the function of the lotus.

"Brother Sanhuang specially brought this back from Beifu to Brother Sanhuang. Brother Sanhuang and I want to give you a petal. It is said that it has the effect of renewing life. Whether you are poisoned or injured or seriously ill, you can try it. "

Chu Zhao put away all those things, put some in his baggage, and some on the horse's back.

Holding the box, he suddenly thought of something, frowned and said: "There is something related to the Third Highness and the First Highness, but I don't know, should I say it."

Chu Zhao looked at Xiao Yan, and Chu Yi said: "Fourth brother just say it straight, Xiao Yan is one of his own. Brother Sanhuang and eldest brother? What happened to them."

Chu Zhao recalled it, and said eloquently: "When the third prince's mother concubine Mrs. Zhen died of illness, although I don't know what happened, but one thing is certain, Mrs. Zhen was weak and sick for more than ten years after giving birth to the third prince. , had close contacts with Mrs May until a few months before her death."

Chu Yi's expression changed: "You mean, Mrs. Zhen's death is related to Mrs. Mei?"

The two wives of Zhenmei died of illness seven and eight years ago respectively. At that time, Chu Yi was still young, Chu Lin had already joined the army, and Chu Yun's health was as bad as ever.

Chu Zhao shook his head, a faint light flashed in his black eyes: "No, what I know is that Mrs. Mei had a very good relationship with Fan Qiongran at that time, so I suspect that Fan Qiongran is the real mastermind behind the scenes."

He didn't have any evidence, but based on what he knew about his mother, he still felt that this matter might have something to do with Fan Qiongran.

"It's just that it's been too long since Mrs. Zhen and Mrs. Mei passed away one after another, so there's nothing to investigate."

When Mrs. Zhen and Mrs. Mei passed away, he was only eleven or twelve years old. It was because of his young age that Fan Qiongran did not hide anything from him, so he kept it in his heart.

If it wasn't for Chu Lin's sudden return to Beijing, he wouldn't have remembered it.

When Chu Yi heard his words, she suddenly recalled the day when her eldest brother gave Sanhuang brother Shenglian, because of Mrs. Mei's bracelet, Sanhuang brother also thought of his mother and concubine, and asked himself if he remembered his mother.

Brother Three Emperors was indeed a little strange that day.

She collected herself and said, "Is there anything to investigate? No, Fan Qiongran is still alive. I will definitely investigate this matter."

"That's good." Chu Zhao felt relieved.

Chu Yi took out the last thing and put it in his hand: "Fourth brother, you put this away."

"Kite?" Chu Zhao stared at the swallow kite made of wood chips in his hand, and was stunned. His fingertips were stuck on the edge of the wood chips, turning pale.

"The kite still flew away."

"Fourth brother will tie a new one for you."

The little girl's crisp voice sounded in my mind.

When she was a child, Chu Yi's kite broke and flew away, and he re-tied her a swallow kite.

It turned out that not only did he not forget those memories, but neither did Chu Yi.

"This is made of birch, it will never fly away again," Chu Yi said, "I painted the pattern on it with dye, and then waxed it, so it won't fade easily."

Chu Zhao held the wooden kite tightly, Chu Yi thought he was dissatisfied, and said, "Of course, if you don't like it..."

Chu Zhao nodded vigorously: "I like it very much."

"That's good, this carpentry was actually done by Xiao Yan, and the pattern was drawn by me, fourth brother, do you mind?" Chu Yi asked with a smile.

"……do not mind."

Xiao Yan took a step forward and deliberately explained: "The princess found a lot of wood to make this wooden kite. The wood she chose herself was just ground into the shape of the kite."

"Thank you, Young Master Xiao."

As Chu Zhao said, he took three steps back and looked at Xiao Yan.

Heavy snow fell, almost blurring their vision.

"Chu Yi is the most precious treasure of our Chu family. If you love her, don't let her frown." Chu Zhao's black eyes were cold, and he warned every word, and finally put himself in the position of the elder brother .

"If you dare to bully her and make her sad, I will..." kill you.

He didn't say those three words, because he was afraid that Chu Yi would show a troubled expression.

Xiao Yan's thin lips raised an arrogant and confident smile, and said:
"If I make Ah Yi sad, I will kill myself to apologize, and I will die badly, but I won't bother you about these things."

When Chu Yi heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched: "Not a good death, self-inflicted apology?"

Xiao Yan: "Ah Yi, don't be afraid."

Chu Yi said in her heart, she was not afraid, she just thought of one thing - did he die like this in the previous life?

After all, I was sad every day at that time!

Chu Zhao put the wooden kite in his arms and got on the horse.

He fixedly stared into Chu Yi's eyes, the deep black eyes were firm and gentle: "Liu Liu, remember, no matter where I am, whether I'm by your side or not, you still have my fourth brother. I I will be your retreat, and I will pray for you to be happy and happy forever in the distance."

In the end, he was willing to be her fourth brother and called her Liuliu.

He will never love someone like this again in his life.

The heavier the snow fell, the sky and the earth were all silvery white. Those snowflakes fell on Chu Zhao's eyebrows, and after melting, they looked like teardrops.

The people who escorted him set off again, when Chu Zhao was about to ride his horse, a group of soldiers came from afar.

"Who is it!" The surrounding people immediately surrounded him.

Chu Yi already recognized the person who came, waved his hand and said: "There is no need to stop, we are talking about the guards."

"Tan Feng, why are you here?" Chu Zhao was shocked, "Didn't I tell you to leave the capital?"

"This subordinate is indeed leaving the capital, no, I met you." Tan Feng said with a smile.

He turned over and got off the horse, his handsome face and hair on his forehead were stained with melted snow, his navy blue guard robes were almost the same as usual, the only difference was that he was carrying a big burden.

"I have seen Princess Yongning before." Tan Feng bowed on his knees, then looked at Chu Zhao, "I want to go to Liangzhou with the fourth... Young Master Chu."

"Nonsense, you—"

Before Chu Zhao finished speaking, he was interrupted by the conversation.

This is also the first time that Tan Feng has disobeyed his order, and his eyes are extremely firm: "The letter of introduction written by the young master to the subordinate, the subordinate has already torn it up, and the scholar will die for the confidant. This is the subordinate's own choice, and the young master does not need to stop it." , can't stop it."

He continued: "What's more, the reason why this subordinate is not guilty is because no one cares about it, but if you want to investigate carefully, this subordinate is also guilty. It is normal to be exiled with you."

Chu Zhao's throat choked up, unable to speak.
