The Romance of the Third World of Yitian

Chapter 18

Hearing this, Zhao Min closed the folding fan and said with a smile, "Don't believe me? Let's look at the certificate." As he spoke, he picked up a light green Emei ribbon from the table, which is what I usually use to hang a long sword around my waist.

Brother and Zhang Wuji looked at each other, as if they wanted to rush forward, but Zhao Min said: "The rest of the Mingjiao people are five miles east of the villa, right? The six people from Shenjian Baxiong have already brought people there. If you don't want them If there is any mistake, why not sit down and negotiate a condition with me."

Zhang Wuji, the dazed young man, seemed still unwilling, but his elder brother calmed down first, "What kind of conditions, but it's okay to say."

I was a little relieved to see him, although this silly boy was surprisingly skinny in front of me, and he was like a strict wife in front of Xiao Zhao, but he was quite reliable at other times.

"Okay, as expected of Zhiruo's brother!" Zhao Min's smile became brighter and brighter, and he seemed very satisfied with the development of things in the direction he wanted. "I hope you can promise me one thing."

When I heard this, my heart skipped a beat.Coupled with the exhaustion from the exhaustion of traveling and traveling, I was a little dizzy for a while.The three requests that Zhao Min made to Zhang Wuji in the first life were so famous and shameful to me personally.In this life, you have to go the old way?

Suppressing the complicated thoughts in my heart, I took a closer look and found that Zhang Wuji was not what her fan was pointing at.

My brother was taken aback, "Huh? Me? I am far inferior to the leader in terms of status, knowledge, skill, and generosity. Why me?"

—You are too modest, really.As far as you only treat Xiao Zhao well, and avoid showing favor to other women like a snake, you don't know how much better than Zhang Wuji.

"Even the surprised reaction is so similar to hers." Zhao Min smiled slightly, "Master Zhou, why should you be humble? Haven't you also learned the Great Teleportation of the Universe? It's up to you, I won't ask you to catch the sky The moon will not ask you to do evil things that violate the chivalry of martial arts, let alone ask you to die. For you, it may be just a matter of words."

——Brother will move the universe?Yang Xiao taught him?No, it should be that day at Guangmingding, he, Xiao Zhao, and Zhang Wuji entered the secret way of Mingjiao together and learned it, but I don't know how popular he is with Zhang Wuji.

The elder brother frowned, and was about to agree, when he suddenly reacted and said, "But it has something to do with my sister?"

Zhao Min nodded, "Yes, but I will never harm her."

--I?She has spent so much trouble, but it has something to do with me?

The elder brother pondered, walked around the pavilion, suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhao Min with bright eyes, "I wanted to ask you earlier, you are the daughter of King Ruyang, aren't you?"

"That's right, it seems that you also knew about the incident eight years ago." Zhao Min raised her eyebrows, but she wasn't surprised.

The elder brother thought for a while, and saluted Zhang Wuji, "Master, you go back first, the subordinates will catch up later." After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and sat directly opposite Zhao Min, his face turned serious, and there was something serious about him. The majestic posture of the father, with a look of scrutiny in his eyes, "Let's make it clear, ten years ago, it was you, wasn't it?"

Zhang Wuji cared about the people of Mingjiao, and he didn't hold back, he cupped his fists and flew away.

Zhao Min was really taken aback this time, frowned, and sat down too, looking quite well-behaved, "That's right, you even know this?"

—Ten years ago?When my father was defeated and Zhao Min was in charge of hunting us down, what happened that I don't know?

Brother smiled faintly, "The situation at that time was so weird, combined with Brother Chang's description and my own investigation, plus you didn't hide it yourself, everything is obvious, isn't it?"

Zhao Min looked at him firmly, "Then, you should know what I'm asking for?"

The elder brother picked up the wine glass that appeared on the table at some time, frowned and thought while saying, "Got it."

--I do not know! ! !You are a hammer dumb fan!

Zhao Min stood up all of a sudden, "Then—"

"Stop." The elder brother raised his hand to stop her, only looking at the wine glass in his hand, "Are you serious?"

"I can't be serious anymore." Zhao Min looked determined.

"There are some things that you can't solve if you are serious." The elder brother's expression suddenly became sad, and it seemed that he was not only referring to this matter.

Zhao Min said firmly: "It's not me, it's us."

The elder brother was startled, and pondered: "You guys?... That's right, I know Zhiruo's temperament best. She can treat you like that, it must be... But does she know what happened ten years ago?" It's actually a bit like discussing with Zhao Min.

Zhao Min said: "What happened here, I will tell her and let her handle it."

What's up?Hasn't she already decided that I won't be angry with her at all?Why... Anyway, it sounds very serious.

The elder brother looked at her, and suddenly sighed, "It doesn't have to be like this. Speaking of it, it has nothing to do with you, and Zhiruo must know it too. And I should thank you. But it is impossible for you to expect me to agree just because of gratitude." of."

He stood up and raised his glass, "I can only say this: If Zhiruo is sincerely willing, not only will I not object to her brother, but I will do my best to support her." After finishing speaking, he drank the wine in his glass.

"That's enough." Zhao Min raised his glass in response.

After the elder brother said what he just said, he seemed to let go of a huge rock in his heart, looked at Zhao Min sideways, and became a fool. "Speaking of which, you are really courageous, dare to do such a thing in full view."

"Which one?" Zhao Min had a half-smile, as if he already knew it in his heart.

Brother rolled his eyes, "When the light is on the top, don't pretend to me! If I hadn't prepared in my heart, I would have pissed you off that day!"

—So you saw it! !That's to stop her from molesting your sister! !

If it weren't for the lack of seams on the ground, I really wish I could get in and never come out again.

"It turns out that brother saw it." Zhao Min was not shy at all, and looked very proud, "How do you say that I have already prepared in my heart?"

"So obviously there's nothing to say. I've guessed it since two years ago. I couldn't accept it at first, and I was scolded by Xiao Zhao..." My brother said that he didn't want to bring up the past, "It's hard to think about it now. Very good, if you put aside your identity, you don't know how much better than those wild men. ——I don't know what you plan to do next, anyway, if Zhiruo is wronged, I will definitely not agree."

"That's natural."

The two chatted a few more incomprehensible words, the elder brother bid farewell with fists in his arms, and before leaving, he said: "Miss Zhao, see you later, maybe we are enemies."

"But I will show mercy." Zhao Min laughed.

The elder brother flew away and said from a distance, "Of course I will."

These two...

So what about the big fight I was expecting?At worst, you have to make a fuss, right?How does it feel that not only a friendly agreement was reached, but also a non-aggression pact was signed?

I accidentally raised my eyes and found that Zhao Min was looking in my direction with a half-smile, and a clear voice came over, with a soft tone, "Come here."

Looking back, the little maid had long since disappeared.Well, I knew it would be like this.

Anyway, it was arranged by her, so I didn't have any ready-made psychological burden of peeping and being caught.He came out of the bamboo forest generously, crossed the stone bridge, entered the small pavilion, and sat opposite Zhao Min.

"Have you heard?" Zhao Min poured me a glass of wine.

I took it calmly, took a sip, and it tasted good, "Well, I heard everything." Although I didn't understand much.

Zhao Min sat down with a smile, "To put it simply, your brother betrothed you to me."

"Puff—cough, cough cough." I no longer regained my composure just now, and was stunned, "Wait a minute, what do you say, let's talk—well, you don't have to say any more, I will think about it myself."

With a playful smile in his eyes, Zhao Min leaned over and wiped the corner of my mouth with a handkerchief, "I'm so careless."

"This is not a matter of carelessness!" I recalled the conversation between the two of them, and finally exploded, "No wonder you asked me to come and see, so it was because I was afraid that I would not believe it!"

Zhao Min patted the top of my head in admiration, as if smoothing the hair of his little pet, "You can always understand my intentions quickly."

"Don't talk about these things!" I was completely blown away.

It turns out that when I was still struggling with something that I thought was very important, have you already planned to the point of human trafficking?

...Why do I suddenly feel a little guilty when I think about it like this? Is my attitude a little sorry for her efforts?

I looked away guiltily, "Ahem, what happened, what happened? Let's start from the beginning, don't hide anything!"

"Okay." Zhao Min followed suit, "About four or five years ago, at my request, my father formally entrusted me with the task of subduing the martial arts. But before that, I had already started secretly planning and doing a lot. I won’t explain everything to you one by one, and one of them is for the Emei people.”

"...you are scary." What was I doing then?Well, focus on practicing martial arts.

"At the same time, I found out that someone was secretly investigating about me. I checked the source in Mingjiao, but couldn't find out who it was, so I guessed it might be your brother. After seeing Zhou Haoyue, I suspected that it should be him, but seeing him and You can't help being a little jealous when you're so intimate."

I rolled my eyes, "What's there to be jealous of? You've kissed me before."

"I forced it, and you didn't take the initiative." Zhao Min still seemed very unconvinced, and didn't have any intention of reflecting on his behavior.

"Then why did he investigate you? Oh, maybe Brother Chang told him that you brought me to the Ruyang Palace eight years ago." He was just investigating secretly, and it would be good if he didn't overturn your Ruyang Palace. , although he doesn't have that ability either.

Zhao Min smiled, I actually felt a little nervous from it, is it going to rain red?I tensed my nerves vigilantly, but she said: "Zhiruo, now that things have happened, if I tell you this, it may make the distance between us even further. But if you don't say it, you will know it one day , then it will be even more irreparable."

I vaguely guessed what she was going to say, and was silent for a while.

She said: "When you were seven years old, it was I who suggested to your father that he captured your father and beheaded him in public, and...killed your whole family."

When she said this, her expression was not so much guilt as stubbornness, her waist was straightened, and her hands on the table were quietly clenched into fists, shaking unceasingly.

Is this really the case?

"You..." Just after she said a word, her body trembled, and I couldn't help but soften my voice, "You should have known that even if you didn't do that, my father... would definitely die. As the leader of the rebels, it is impossible for your father to let him escape."

Saying this, she still couldn't accept it, "Zhiruo, I know that you always tolerate me in almost everything, but I don't want you to find any reason for me to explain this matter." Her eyes clearly wrote, " Either hate me clearly, or forgive me completely."

I looked at her and smiled wryly, "Minmin, I don't hate you, so how can I forgive you?"

I have secretly thought about this matter many times.

hate her?Yes, but also no.

Zhao Min might think that it was her request that led to the end of my family, but from my point of view, it was only two years ahead of schedule for everything that must have happened.In this matter, she, who did not personally participate, is at best a catalyst, and neither the beginning nor the result will be changed because of her.

From another perspective, since I already knew that my parents would die, should I just sit and wait for death without taking any action?In fact, at the risk of being regarded as a monster by them, I had a serious and frank talk with my father.I said he would fail, and I said he would make a comeback, but that man who stood up to heaven was unwilling.It's not that he doesn't believe my words, it's just that he would rather face death calmly than escape the so-called fate.

Therefore, even if there is a two-year buffer, it may not necessarily change the outcome.So I don't hate her for it.

And, most importantly, because of her, my brother survived - Zhao Min must not know how important this is to me.

This doesn't just refer to the karmic help in the sense of fate, but the real thing: Ten years ago, when Zhao Min was in charge of hunting down the two of us, he concentrated all his limited forces on me.Therefore, my brother was able to go all the way unimpeded and reach the Bright Summit safely.

The existence of my brother means that the present I am in is indeed different from the first life.When I think that there is another person in this world who is connected with my blood, no matter what happens, he will stand by my side unconditionally, and I can share all the joys, sorrows, sorrows, troubles and sorrows with him, and my heart will be more stable than ever.

Although we didn't meet many times, it was because I didn't have any brothers all the time, and suddenly I didn't get used to it, so I subconsciously stayed away and my heart was attached to Emei.In fact, our relationship is really good. I even taught him the inner strength method in the Nine Yin Manual three years ago-presumably this is the reason why he was not poisoned just like Zhang Wuji.

Under all the above circumstances, Zhao Min was really too cunning to ask his brother for permission.

My brother agreed, how could I refuse her because of family feud.

Besides, I didn't hate her in the first place.

Zhao Min opened his eyes wide at first, then stopped talking, his stubborn voice trembled faintly, suppressing his emotions, "In Hanshui, you said you hated me."

—You don't hate me?

——Of course I hate, family hatred and country hatred.Zhou Zhiruo engraved it in her heart, and dared not forget it for a day.

"Hey, that was ten years ago..." I was stunned. Does she still hold on to such a sentence?

Zhao Min was angry, "You!"

I took the opportunity to go over and hug her gently from behind, letting her head rest on my chest, "Minmin, that incident wasn't your fault at all."

Zhao Min turned her head away, "That's not important! After all, you still hate me!" She finally looked a little bit angry when she was a child, and she was unexpectedly cute, making people want to coax her.

"Those hatreds are only due to anger. The root cause lies in identity and position, not the living Zhao Min in front of me who can be angry and happy."

"Love doesn't know where it started, but it goes deep; hate doesn't know where it ends, and it disappears with a smile." I groaned softly, gently stroking her reddish eye sockets with my fingertips.

"Maybe it was during the two months together day and night, or when we met each other and smiled at each other after a long absence, unknowingly, that insignificant hatred has long since disappeared. On the contrary——"

I always feel that if I continue to speak, I will say something incredible.I stopped immediately and changed the subject. "At that time, it was just because I didn't want to have anything to do with you, so I deliberately said it to the end."

Zhao Min was in a better mood, silently grabbed my hand on her shoulder, tilted her head and kissed it, and suddenly said, "Then you explain to me like this now, is it because you really want to continue entangled with me?" ?”

I was attracted by the touch of my fingers, and nodded subconsciously, "It's—a ghost!" This guy is really talking!I twitched my fingers, wishing I could crush her shoulder just like that.

She smiled, stood up, patted the side of my face with a fan, and whispered in my ear: "Zhiruo, I'm waiting for the day when you admit it with your own mouth."

I looked away and took a step back, blushing to change the subject, "You mean, is that why my brother is investigating you?"

"No, it's because I didn't hunt him down back then, but instead sent someone to help them." Seeing my puzzled face, Zhao Min took the initiative to explain, "I don't know why I did that, maybe it was because I anticipated the present situation in advance. situation."

She took two steps closer, "Zhiruo, now that your brother has agreed, at least you can't reject me because of your family feud, right?"

But what I use is national hatred, not family hatred!Could it be that she counted on the latter part of the rhetoric?I was speechless: "You really plan ahead..."

"Zhiruo—" She looked at me with a graceful tone, her eyes rolled, her pink cheeks were flushed, and her expression was so charming and charming that no one could refuse.

"Okay, okay, I know, it won't, and it won't happen in the future." What's with this strong feeling of being captured step by step?

Afraid that people from the Ming Cult would come back and cause trouble, Zhao Min immediately led a group of people out of the Green Willow Villa, and set fire to it.Looking back, black smoke rose into the sky, red flames flickered, and it seemed that it was about to be destroyed.She must have put a lot of effort into this villa, and it burned down after eating a few meals.

Traveling eastward, that night they arrived at a manor under the name of Zhao Min.I thought, since we shared beds except for the night when I was first captured, it must be the same tonight, so I prepared to wash and sleep by myself, who would have thought that she would drag me directly into the bathroom.

Then there was such a scene: a gentleman in brocade and satin and a woman in a green silk shirt were neatly dressed, standing by the edge of the bath filled with the fragrance of flower petals, posing a confrontation in front of the two maids, the atmosphere was dignified Incomparable.

"You are the master, you go clubbing first." I choose my words carefully.

The corners of her mouth curled up, and her slender eyebrows raised slightly, "They will take it off for you, or I will take it off for you, you choose."

I seriously thought about it, after all it is better to be embarrassed in front of strangers than in front of acquaintances, but seeing Zhao Min's darkening complexion, I think it is better to be wise. "But you are the princess..."

The maids looked at each other and stepped back very consciously.

"It doesn't matter if it's you." Zhao Min finally looked better, and changed the topic, "Do you remember what I said when I met your brother and the others under the willow tree?"

"Hmm... If you helped me hide the past, how can I thank you in the future, this sentence?" I muttered, thankfully we both still remember such a casual sentence.

"So, come here? Huh?" Nannan steamed up, and she smiled slightly, and stretched out her hand to me.
