Soft-boned beauty, isn't he fragrant?
Chapter 45
It was late in the evening, the temperature dropped sharply, and the wind knives hit his face with some light snow. Chu Gui walked out of the warm spring-like hall in a white satin cotton robe.
After getting on the king's chariot, Xiao Qi handed over a cup of hot tea. He thanked him and took it with both hands. Suddenly, a big hand brushed across his face, wiping away the few snowflakes that had been stained just now.
The feeling of the finger touching is very light, but the feeling of pressing into his heart is heavy, because this kind of unintentional, natural movement all exudes a sense of cherishment, and it is the kind of tenderness that he most desires in his past and present life.
It was within reach but he couldn't let himself indulge, he turned his head slightly unnaturally, took a sip from the teacup, and slowly suppressed the throbbing at this moment.
Xiao Qi chatted with him seemingly unconsciously: "You didn't wear makeup today, don't you need to go on stage?"
Chu Gui returned a smiling face: "Well, as for musicals, singing is the main thing, and I'm tone deaf, so I can only retreat behind the scenes.
"Alright, then be a spectator with me."
"...No, it's their first time in battle, so it's inevitable that they made a mistake. I'd better direct and help in the background." Chu Gui lowered his eyes and refused. His fingers fiddled with the delicate clasp one after another.
The air was quiet for a while, Xiao Qi leaned back in the chair, sighed in a low voice, stared at half of the back of the person's head and asked: "Little Gui, are you still unwilling to admit what you promised me? God, have you really forgotten?"
Chu Gui was a little helpless, and didn't understand why he suddenly mentioned this again.
He was indeed at fault for this matter, but he didn't mean to play tricks on purpose. He really didn't remember a word. Now that he thinks about it, he was probably joking with others. Mood to recognize?
Xiao Qi didn't wait for an answer, and seemed to be expecting it, and said to himself: "Whether you really forgot, or deliberately denied me, do you know why I have stayed with you for so many years, just because of your words? "
Chu Gui was really curious about this. Calculated according to his age, he was only fourteen or five years old when we first met. Although he was at the age of first love, it was just a life-saving grace. In just two days of getting along, he was in Lian Mu's face. Where did such deep emotion come from when I had never seen it before?Or, it's just a sense of morality, what kind of gentleman can't follow a word?
Turning to look at the person beside him, Xiao Qi had closed his eyes, as if he was stuck in memory, Chu Gui also took advantage of the momentum to stare at the person blatantly, admiring the handsome profile.Suddenly someone said:
"I was not born by my queen mother. My biological mother was a maid beside her, named Lu Wei. She died of dystocia when she gave birth to me."
Chu Gui's pupils trembled. He never expected that this person's life experience would have such twists and turns. He couldn't help asking: "But everyone in the world says that you and the emperor have the same mother...you,"
Before I finished speaking, I also felt that I was asking a nonsense question. Isn't this person's nickname well-known in the world, but in fact, he might be an older boy.
It can be seen how unreliable the rumors are.
Xiao Qi said again: "Not many people know about this matter, and I don't know what the reason is, and I didn't even dare to ask."
"Then they don't know you know about this?" The words were a bit convoluted, mainly because Chu Gui also felt that it was a bit weird. How could such a big matter involving blood relationship not be explained clearly to each other? Filial piety, brotherly love is all due to poor acting skills?But when Xiao Qi mentioned Jiang Wan, the admiration in his eyes couldn't be faked, hey, the family relationship of the Tian family is really hard to fathom.
Xiao Qi was not in a hurry to answer this question, he paused for a while, and then said quietly: "I think I was just an accident, an existence that was not popular since I was a child."
With these words uttered, he couldn't help but recall all kinds of childhood memories in his mind. He is also the son of the empress, and his brother who is five years older than him seems to be in the scorching sun, while he is a little transparent who only deserves to live in the shadows. Because as long as he shows the momentum of surpassing at 01:30, there must be countless surprises to meet him.
Although the queen mother never shorted his food and clothing, she basically didn't take care of him much. She was always taken care of by the palace servants, and even because he was not favored, she didn't show him any kindness in private.
Brother Huang has always been polite and courteous. On the surface, he is a brother and friend, but in reality he is superior and never takes him seriously. Even Father Huang and Lord Zongzheng will always only be indifferent and scolding.
Until one day he knew the truth and thoroughly understood that although his surname was Xiao on the surface, he was actually surnamed Jiang. He bore the name of the Jiang family but did not shed the blood of the Jiang family. For Jiang, he was even more threatening than the other princes. His accidents, if nothing else, were the work of his two uncles.
Only mediocrity survives.
At that moment, his heart was ashamed, and he even wanted to give up all his efforts and just be a walking dead coward without knowing it.
But he didn't allow him to be decadent for too long, and the turning point appeared here.
In order to save his life, he went to Liuying to study lightness kung fu, but he almost died unexpectedly. At his most desperate moment, God sent this person to his side. He was obviously a few years younger than him, so he could leave him alone and run for his life. He was so injured that he could barely move, but the one who was soaked in blood and still refused to give up was about to stop in front of him.
He felt that his heart was ignited again, ignited by this incomparable tenacity, such a lonely and helpless child could face death calmly, his will never wavered, and he struggled to kill them with half his life. Two of them were rescued, so what did the predicament he experienced in the past count for?What's the point of those cold eyes and sarcasm?
It doesn't matter whether he saw his face or not, he survived, and when this person fell into a severe coma, he secretly took the back of the person's hand and gave him a pious kiss. At that moment, the promise was carved into his bones.
He only wanted this person to stay by his side forever, because he knew that even in the desperate situation of death, he would never be abandoned by this person.
The memory is very long, but the thoughts are only in the blink of an eye. Xiao Qi opened his eyes and looked at Chu Gui. This person may never know that the brilliance of that moment illuminated his whole world, and it made him think more than the grace of saving his life. Unforgettable, but now, do you want him to experience this tenacity again in such a bitter way?
He is really willing to treat each other with sincerity, and only hopes that the king's heart is like mine, so that he can get the same return.
"I entered Liuying that day to learn lightness kung fu to save my life. I was so stupid, so I often fell off the rockery suddenly, sank into the lake suddenly, fell down the steps suddenly, all kinds of suddens, and after a few years Before I knew it, I realized it after I really thought about it. It was because of what happened suddenly.
... This is also the reason why I am famous all over the world, heh, the word Wuwei, the name of the king is An, do you understand?If I do nothing, I will be at peace, these people have arranged my fate early in the morning, if I live peacefully and be a dude, it will not be difficult to survive and be rich, but if I want to live like a human being...I..."
The words were already exhausting, Xiao Qi asked full of hope: "Xiao Gui, I'm not complaining when I tell you this, but to tell you that many things are not what you see, and there may be something wrong with them. There are various reasons.
So, who are you looking for in the palace?Except for you and Chu Wan, the whole family is dead, who is your enemy, Jiang Huairen or Wan Fengbao?Or... is it my brother?If you don't even want to tell me the truth, then what can I do to protect you? "
Chu Gui lowered his head, and firmly restrained his eyesight, for fear that he would suddenly lose control and expose everything completely if he saw the redness at a glance.
He really didn't expect Xiao Qi to be so sensitive and open-minded.
I haven't seen you for more than ten days. It should be due to a detailed investigation of my past. I can guess the remaining three enemies. Unfortunately, it is not a problem of any one, but all three. The enemy is at the point.
But maybe it was because the car was too comfortable and warm, or maybe the eyes of the person next to him were too hot, which melted the ice in his heart. Chu Gui, who had been told his story, was rarely shaken after being shocked.
The pressure and fatigue he had been fighting against all this time seemed to explode, making him really want to lean on the broad shoulder next to him, really want someone to share it for him, so that he can rest for a while.
After a while, he suddenly noticed this untimely weakness, Chu Gui secretly warned himself, what's the use of telling him the truth?Wan Fengbao and Jiang Huairen are okay to say, one has nothing to do with each other, and the other may even have hatred, but what does Xiao Zhi say?Could it be possible to expect others to let go of brotherhood and avenge themselves?
As his lord, if he really did such a thing, it would be no different from treason, and it would only be done if he had to risk the world's disgrace, bear the charge of rebellious ministers and thieves, and completely turn against all his relatives.
Can a mere life-saving grace make the other party make such a choice?
Even if he could, would he have the heart to let him go through such pain?
On the other hand, if he didn't choose to help himself, he would definitely obstruct him. Most likely, like last time, he would be chained to him for fear that he would go to Nanyong to die, and he would be imprisoned for a lifetime if he ate and drank food.
Amid the sound of the horse's hooves, Chu Gui finally cleared his mind, and was about to relax his efforts to crush the stove into an iron block, and his voice was as cold as the air outside the car: "You sent someone to check me? No... because of last time Do you recognize my second sister?"
"Yes, I have met Wanniang a few times, and I recognized her in the car that day. I didn't want to do anything, I really wanted to help you."
"Help me? Help me kill your brother?" Chu Gui turned his face slightly, squinting at Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi's heart was shocked, "...really...really my brother? Why did he do such an inexplicable thing? Xiao Gui, you must have made a mistake. He was born with everything, and he is the most honorable person, You will never do such a boring thing, let people go to a small mountain village so remote in Yunzhou to kill people. You tell the truth, and I will tell Xuanji Pavilion to investigate carefully from the beginning."
Sure enough, he would never believe it when his brother was involved, Chu Gui suddenly let out a "puchi", with a smile in the corner of his eyes, and said angrily, "I'm joking with you, are you serious?"
"……joke?"
Chu Gui put down the hand stove, knelt down in front of Xiao Qi, naturally held his hands, began to rub them slowly with his warm palms, raised his face and said, "Ang, who told you not to believe me and still check me everywhere, What kind of enemy is not an enemy, what you say is the same as the truth, I don’t have to scare you?”
Xiao Qi didn't speak, and stared straight into Chu Gui's eyes, trying hard to distinguish the truth of what he said.
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I'm afraid I won't be able to beat Cui Chenglin if I tie the three together. How could I do such a mindless thing as entering the palace to seek revenge? Many years have passed since the tragedy of my family. Back then, General Wan sent troops to wipe out that Helping the gangsters made me learn martial arts but it was useless, I didn’t get any enemies, I can only be a businessman with Liu Fu, when I can see General Wan, I must thank him very much.”
After Chu Gui said this, the teasing look in his eyes remained undiminished, it seemed to be a reproach to him for his wild thinking, or it seemed to be a small casual complaint between lovers, and then he smiled brightly, without seeing the slightest haze.
Xiao Qi was about to think about it carefully, when the carriage stopped suddenly, the person in front of him quickly stood up, bowed his waist and walked towards the door, turned his head and greeted: "We have arrived at Cihui Palace, my lord, I still need to talk to you." When the team is assembled, I will leave first! See you later!"
After getting off the royal chariot, Chu Gui no longer showed the slightest smile. The cold wind came howling, and he flinched unconsciously. He wrapped his satin robe tightly, and stepped forward firmly, without turning his head.
The people in the carriage remained silent for a long time.
