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

Chapter 187 What she saw before she died

His words blocked everything Chu Zhao wanted to say, making it impossible for Chu Zhao to refuse.

After a while, the group escorting Chu Zhao set off again, and there was an extra chat in the team.

Chu Yi stood on the spot, raised her head, and looked at the young man on the horseback, her eyes were clear and clear in the flying snow.

She said: "Fourth brother, I wish you a smooth journey, and there will be a period later."

"There will be a period later." Chu Zhao nodded, and after speaking, he reined in and turned around, stepping into the white wind and snow.

If there will be a period in the future, if they live for a hundred years, they will always meet again.

Chu Yi looked at their backs, at the horseshoe prints in the snow, until they turned into little black dots, then she also got on the horse and said: "I will send you off for thousands of miles, and we must say goodbye. Let's go back." .”

Xiao Yan took her hand and spread her palm.

On Chu Yi's white and delicate fingertips and palms, there were extremely tiny wounds, which were all caused by carving and cutting wood.

"Why didn't you tell him that you made that wooden kite by yourself from the beginning to the end, and I never taught you any carpentry." Xiao Yan's tone was filled with unconcealable distress.

Chu Yi withdrew her hand, smiling slyly: "I only hope that when Chu Zhao sees this kite in the future, he will be able to think of my happy face, the beauty of our childhood, and you, not the things that happened later."

After the escort team marched for a while, Tan Feng stepped forward to the rear of Chu Zhao's side.

He said puzzledly: "My lord, you have already drawn a clear line with the Fan family, and it was you who wrote to Su Jingyuan and told him what the Fan family had done in Beifu, which made him choose to return to Beijing.

If you tell His Majesty these achievements and justify yourself, you will definitely not be like the Fan family, 30 years of hard labor, how can you bear it..."

There can be several 30 years in a lifetime, if His Highness really does 30 years of hard labor, then he will be over half a hundred years old, and he will be in his twilight years.

Tan Feng chose to follow Chu Zhao, so he would not be afraid of those 30 years, but he was heartbroken for Chu Zhao.

Chu Zhao rode on the horse and looked back.

Chu Yi, who was dressed in white, was completely invisible, only Xia Yingma, who was sitting on Xiao Yan's seat, was like a crumbling flame in the wind and snow.

He gently touched the wooden kite placed on his chest, his eyes were relieved and calm, and said:
"Whether I write that letter or not, Su Jingyuan will wake up, so I didn't do anything. But the crimes I committed these years are real, and I should have been punished."

What's more, he always had a thought in his mind telling himself that this was already his best result.

From then on, he was accompanied by a kite made by her. He would always be her fourth brother, and... just her fourth brother.

"Chu Yi, I only wish you peace and happiness every year."

Chu Zhao murmured in a low voice, and his voice disappeared in the wind.

When returning to Shangjing, the heavy snow finally stopped.

At the gate of the city, the guarding army saw Chu Yi appear and immediately let her go. The people who came and went around were a little excited when they knew her identity.

Suddenly, Xiao Yan frowned, he felt that someone was peeping in the dark, and looked calmly.

Among the bustling crowd, a man wearing a bamboo hat and a coarse gown was looking in the direction of the city gate, as if saying goodbye to Chu Zhao who was leaving.

Chu Yi followed Xiao Yan's line of sight, and saw that the man seemed to have noticed something, suddenly lowered his head, turned and left.

"That's..." Chu Yi opened his eyes wide in shock, wanting to confirm with Xiao Yan, who has better eyesight.

Xiao Yan nodded.

The man's back was slightly bent, and he walked slowly, gradually disappearing in the crowd.

Chu Yi had already guessed his identity.

She blinked and smiled brightly: "Let's go, I'm going to visit Changlefang."

Xiao Yan frowned: "Huh?"

"Didn't Chu Zhao say that he wasn't sure about one thing? I'm going to ask Sister Fengmian if she knows anything about Mrs. Mei seven years ago."

Xiao Yan was reluctant, until Chu Yi left, he followed helplessly.

"You just need to make sure that you are really looking for Lu Fengmian to inquire about things, not to drink and listen to music."

Chu Yi: "I've already gone, how can I not have a drink?"

Xiao Yan: "Then why do you want to listen to music?"

Chu Yi said again: "It's already here, how can we not take care of sister Fengmian's business."

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "That seems to be your own business."

"Then it needs more care." Chu Yi said seriously.

"..."

The two were noisy and walked towards Changlefang, but at this moment in the cold palace, it was a different scene.

Today is the day of Chu Zhao's exile.

Fan Qiongran sat blankly in his own room in the cold palace, looking at the ray of sunlight that came in through the crack of the door.

"It's time..." She murmured, at this time, Chu Zhao had already left Shangjing.

"Why does Zhao'er still not see me? Why doesn't he come to see me when he is leaving?"

Fan Qiongran couldn't figure it out.

She recalled a few days ago on New Year's Eve, what the maid who came back had told her.

Chu Zhao said that he will never see her again in this life.

Aren't they biological mother and child?Isn't everything she did for him? Why is he refusing to even see himself now, and wants to watch the Fan family leave one by one, and wants to kill his uncle!

"Chu Zhao, you are so ruthless...you and Su Jingyuan, you are so ruthless." Fan Qiongran's eyes were plated with scarlet, gradually filled with resentment.

She suddenly stood up stiffly, walked to the door of the house, and looked out through the crack of the door.

It was snowing heavily outside the house, there was no one there, and there was not enough charcoal fire in the house, so she was shivering with cold.

"I am the first daughter of the Fan family, I am Princess Chu, I am... I am a virtuous concubine respected by everyone in the palace!" Fan Qiongran said, and untied the white belt around her waist, "I still want to be the queen mother! Dayan Queen Mother!"

The more she spoke, the more excited she became, and she almost roared that sentence, her pale face flushed a little.

"This is not real, this is a dream. I, I am the queen mother, that woman Gu Sangsang will never be as good as me!"

Fan Qiongran passed the belt through the beams in the house, and then climbed onto the wooden chair with great difficulty.

The once beautiful appearance has been ruthlessly corroded by the years, and now she is skinny and pale, no one would have thought that this was actually the number one beauty in Shangjing back then.

"Gu Sangsang, you will never be as good as me! Forever!" After Fan Qiongran said this, he raised his hand, picked up the belt, and put his head into the circle.

"Snapped--"

She kicked over the wooden chair under her feet.

At the last moment of her life, she saw a sea of ​​fire.

Could it be that this is her afterlife... Could it be that she finally became the queen mother?
Thinking of this, Fan Qiongran's originally collapsed eyes suddenly widened, almost popping them out, trying to see everything in front of him clearly.

The flames were so hot, it seemed like a scene that had been experienced in real life.

Suddenly, a blood-stained figure in a black dragon robe walked up to her with a long sword dripping with blood.

Those amber phoenix eyes were burning with monstrous hatred, like a tyrannical beast, without a trace of reason.

"You are Xiao..."

Before Fan Qiongran could speak, the man had already swung his sword down.

The next moment, her head shot up into the sky, and the world was turned upside down.

why? !

Why did the person who killed her was Xiao Yan, the protégé of the Yong Kingdom? !

And why, he was wearing a dragon robe?Could it be that he returned to Yong Kingdom and became the emperor!
With endless unwillingness and hatred, Fan Qiongran tilted her head and stopped breathing.

After an unknown amount of time, a young eunuch who brought her food knocked on the door, and there was no answer for a long time, so he had no choice but to open the door and come in.

When the little eunuch saw the corpse hanging from the beam, he was almost scared out of his wits. He stumbled back, threw away the lunch box and shouted.

"The sinful concubine Fan... is dead! Fan is dead!"

As soon as Chu Yi and Xiao Yan returned to the palace, they heard the news that Fan Qiongran committed suicide by hanging from a beam, and immediately rushed to the cold palace.

"This woman..."

After seeing Fan Qiongran's dead body with his own eyes, Chu Yi sighed, not knowing what to say.

Previously, the Fan family and Fan Qiong had not mentioned anything about Mrs. Zhen and Mrs. Mei in their crimes confessed during the interrogation in the dark hall. After all, they had died for many years, and the cause of death at that time was also illness.

Now that Fan Qiongran died, there is nothing to investigate.

"After all, Fan is the fourth brother's concubine, bury her, and then send a letter to the fourth brother." Chu Yi explained helplessly.

Two hours after Chu Zhao left Beijing, Fan Qiongran died. I don't know how he felt.

"As for the deaths of the two wives...for the time being, we can only consider them as deaths from illness."

Xiao Yan looked at the corpse covered in white cloth on the ground, thoughtfully.

Did this woman die in the previous life?He doesn't remember much.

*
The winter snow melts and everything rejuvenates.

Su Bai has arrived in Beifu to take over Su Jingyuan's position, and has inherited Su Jingyuan's title of Marquis of Guannei. He has changed from Su Jingyuan's nephew to Su Jingyuan's stepson.

For the time being, his official position is only that of a general, and if it is a major decision, the eldest prince has to be responsible.

After Su Jingyuan died, the barbarians on the border of Beifu began to move again.

Chu Yi couldn't help being a little worried. Su Jingyuan didn't die in his previous life, and the barbarians would raid Jianbei Pass three years later, but this time, Su Jingyuan's death might make them act earlier.

But fortunately, when Su Bai first came to Beifu, he personally went to Jianbeiguan to train troops. The requirements were strict and the patrols were serious, so the barbarians did not dare to sneak attack easily.

Chu Lin saw that Su Bai was in the North Mansion, and Yi Yun had to be loved by the Queen Mother, so he stayed in Shangjing with peace of mind, and accompanied Chu Yi to Shanglinyuan to ride horses and shoot arrows with Yi Yun. He was very happy.

——By the way, he also attracted Chu Yao, who has always disliked martial arts the most.

Sometimes, growing up may be a momentary thing.

It has been more than half a month since Chu Zhao left the capital. Chu Yao obeyed his words, followed the clues, dealt with a few members of the Fan family who were finally hidden in the palace, and then silently found Chu Lin, hoping that he could teach him martial arts.

Chu Lin said that he would have to go back to Beifu in a while, if he wanted to practice martial arts, it would be better to find a teacher who had been in Beijing for many years.

Finally, Chu Yao found Cen Xiao and started to learn martial arts step by step, even harder than Chu Yi before.

Chu Yao said: "The fourth brother is gone, and I will protect Xiao Liu from now on."

Chu Lin, Chu Ye and Chu Yun ignored him.

During this period of time, the Yong State was very honest, but the Jin State was completely in chaos because of the death of the old Jinhuang.

When Xiao Yan received the news from Jiang Mufan, he was listening to books in a teahouse with Princess Yongning, who was disguised as a man.

"Let's say that the Marquis of Guannei fought against Shan Yu Morton, who rode and speared and swept away hundreds of people. Hearing the news, the barbarians were frightened and did not dare to invade Jianmen Guan half a step! Morton was furious and put on his armor to go into battle... To know what happened next, and Listen to the breakdown next time."

The storyteller spoke dryly, and the people in the audience were concentrating on the key points, but unexpectedly he stopped, all of them were angry and anxious.

Chu Yi tugged at her pigtails, and said, "This storyteller has the potential to be a story-telling master. I really want to introduce him to Lu Rushuang, let them become friends, and make up nonsense together...to write a book and a biography."

"You're right. Maybe this gentleman can inspire Lu Rushuang's writing." Xiao Yan smiled. At this moment, a strange man walked towards them.

Xiao Yan saw the unique logo on the man's waist, and said, "It's from Wushilou."

Chu Yi nodded: "Control Hesi, let him go."

The man handed a note to Xiao Yan and left in a hurry. After reading it, Xiao Yan stood up abruptly: "Something happened."

Chu Yi hurriedly asked: "What's wrong?"

"Wei Yuanshan failed to seize the throne, and he is at stake. Jiang Mufan, the elder brother of Xianying, has escorted him to Shangjing, and he is currently in the dark spot of Wushilou in Beijing."

"Wei Yuanshan? The great prince of Jin?"

"That's right, he is still Wei Rudai's brother. He was the one who stayed in Yong Kingdom to protect me at the very beginning." Xiao Yan said with a frown.

As expected, Wei Yuanshan failed in seizing the throne. He had a faint feeling in his heart before that it would not be so smooth for him to inherit the throne.

Chu Yi recalled the events of her previous life. She didn't know what happened in the struggle for the throne of Jin, but she knew that the emperor of Jin was the eldest prince of Jin.

It seems that Wei Yuanshan also helped Xiao Yan to return from Yan Country to Yong Country smoothly.

As for Wu Shilou's claim that his current failure to seize the title should only be temporary.

Perhaps, in his previous life, he also came to Shangjing to seek help from Xiao Yan?
She immediately said: "Wei Yuanshan has a special status. As long as he is still alive, he will still be the most powerful contender for the throne of the Jin Kingdom. Leave me alone, go and save him!"

This is a great favor.

Xiao Yan smiled, Chu Yi almost told himself that "Wei Yuanshan is the future emperor".

He grabbed Chu Yi with his backhand, interlocked his fingers, and said, "Of course I want to save him, but I'm the princess' bodyguard now, so I should report to the princess and get the princess's consent before I do anything. Let's go." .”

"I didn't say I disagreed, wait a minute, you mean... I'll go too?"

Xiao Yan nodded.

Chu Yi quickly took out a piece of silver from her pocket, and was about to put it on the table. After thinking about it, she stuffed it back into her bosom, took out a few copper coins, and put them on the table where the two of them were drinking tea: "Wait until next time The storyteller is no longer stuck, so give him more money."

Xiao Yan took her to the door of the teahouse, put his arms around her waist, lifted her onto the horse without any effort, and then rode on himself.

"Of course the princess is going." His hot breath caught Chu Yi's ear, his tone was low, "Wei Yuanshan is my uncle, I haven't seen him for many years, the princess has to be brave for me."

Chu Yi: "Strong, strong, what a strong!"

She had never met Wei Yuanshan before, she was fine at first, but when Xiao Yan emphasized that Wei Yuanshan was his uncle, she became more nervous, okay? !
