Chapter 55 Don’t let me see you again!
Xihe collected a few more books from Zhao Siyuan, and finally returned home with a satisfied look on his face. Unexpectedly, the road became increasingly remote, and he lost track of where he was going.
"Sister Yunhui, do you know where this is?" The little girl looked left and right, finally became discouraged, and asked Yunhui for help.
She has a poor sense of direction.
Yun Hui jumped up to a high place and took a look, then said, "Princess, the Minyi Palace is just ahead."
"Minyi Palace? Isn't that where the fifth brother lives?" Xihe said.
Yun Hui nodded.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at Min Yi Palace.
"Sister Yunhui, let's go see the fifth prince, okay?" The little girl said, staring at the slightly desolate palace not far away.
Yun Hui shook her head. "Princess, have you forgotten? Without His Majesty's decree, no one can visit the Fifth Prince."
"Just do it secretly, okay?" Xihe pursed her lips and acted like a spoiled child, pretending to be about to cry.
This trick always works.
Yun Hui covered her face helplessly and compromised, "Princess, we agreed, it'll only be a moment, no more!"
"Okay!" The little girl jumped up with a smile, walked up to Yunhui and kissed her, "Xihe is very well behaved, don't worry, Sister Yunhui."
Minyi Palace is a bit desolate and even quieter than Mingyue Palace.
The gate opened a little, and Xihe slipped in quietly, leaving Yunhui outside to keep watch.
No one has cleared the snow on the ground, and fallen autumn leaves are hidden under the white snow.
A cold wind blew, and Xihe couldn't help but get goose bumps all over her body.
As soon as I arrived at the courtyard, a thin figure came into view. Zhao Zize was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at the kite on the tree with a troubled expression.
"Who!" Zhao Zizhe's eyes changed and he looked over here. When he saw Xihe, who was half hiding behind a tree, he was slightly stunned. "What are you doing here? Who let you in?"
Xihe smiled awkwardly and slowly moved over, with an embarrassed look on her face for intruding without permission. "Fifth Brother, no one asked me to come here. I came here on my own."
Zhao Zizhe glanced at her calmly and then looked away, "Go away, don't let me see you again."
He looked at the kite on the tree with a little reluctance, then sighed and prepared to go back to the house, but the eunuchs around him had disappeared and there was no one to help him. He could not move this big thing by himself, so he had to stop in disappointment.
Seeing this, Xihe immediately stepped forward and volunteered, "Fifth Brother, I will pick the kite for you!"
The little girl stepped on the table and tried to climb up. Before Zhao Zize could react, she was already halfway up in the air.
"Come down! When did I say I wanted a kite? Get down!" Zhao Zize shouted.
The little girl smiled gently at him, "Fifth brother, it's okay. Xihe often climbs trees. I'll be down soon!"
Xihe grabbed the tree trunk, stepped firmly, and reached for the kite not far away. The moment he got it, he gestured towards Zhao Zize, waving one hand in the air.
"Fifth Brother, look! Xihe got it!"
In the winter, the wind and snow were raging, and the originally white area in front of Zhao Zize's eyes suddenly had a hint of bright color.
A touch of red in the vast white vibrated the long-silent strings in my heart.
Zhao Zizhe pursed his lips and remained silent for a long while. After a long while, he sighed, "Come down."
"Okay!"
Perhaps because some snow had just melted, the tree trunks were unexpectedly slippery, and Xihe's feet slipped and he flew out.
"ah!"
"Xihe!" Zhao Zize was horrified and subconsciously wanted to catch her, but his legs were inconvenient and he fell into the snow while struggling. He watched Xihe hanging in the air, but he could not move a step.
He looked at the legs with hatred, and that trace of despair reappeared on his face.
Useless person, useless.
Yun Hui heard the scream and used his martial arts skills to rescue Xihe, who was hanging on the tree and was about to collapse.
"Princess, are you okay?" Yun Hui almost fainted from fright, and hurried to check on Xihe as soon as she received her.
The little girl wasn't frightened at all, and still looked fearless. "Sister Yunhui, I'm fine."
After a moment, he thought of something, was shocked, and hurried to help Zhao Zize up.
"Fifth brother, why did you fall? The ground is cold, Xihe will help you!"
Seeing this, Yunhui also wanted to come over and help.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Zizhe reacted violently and refused to let anyone touch him.
"Get out! Get out! Get out! Get out!" Zhao Zize looked frantic, pushing Yun Hui frantically, "Don't look at me! Don't look at me!"
Zhao Zizhe hates other people's pitying looks, and he hates it even more when anyone looks at his legs.
His panic and incompetence were too ridiculous.
"Sister Yunhui, please go out first." Xihe said hurriedly.
Yun Hui was silent for a moment. "Princess, the Fifth Prince isn't feeling well. Should we consult a royal physician?"
Yun Hui was afraid that the fifth prince would go crazy and hurt the little princess, so she refused to leave no matter what she said.
"It's okay, Sister Yunhui, Fifth Brother won't hurt me." Xihe comforted Zhao Zize, looking a little anxious. "Sister Yunhui, can you wait for Xihe outside? I promise everything will be fine!"
Yun Hui nodded and went out, "Princess, call me if you need anything."
After she left, Xihe squatted in the snow, holding Zhao Zize, who was much older than her, in her still short arms. "Fifth brother, Sister Yunhui is gone. It's okay. Xihe is here. No one saw it."
Zhao Zize only felt a hint of warmth in his usually cold chest. He greedily absorbed the hard-earned warmth and refused to let go for a full moment.
Snow began to fall again. Xihe asked tentatively, "Fifth Brother?"
Zhao Zizhe uttered a weak "hmm," his voice a little hoarse, perhaps because he had been frozen for too long. "Why are you climbing a tree for no reason? Are you tired of living?"
"I'm picking a kite for my fifth brother." The little girl had been kneeling for a long time and quietly changed her posture.
Zhao Zizhe paused and said, "I didn't say I wanted it."
"You said it!"
Zhao Zizhe finally let the little girl go, leaning back in his wheelchair, panting, "I didn't say that."
The little girl shook her head stubbornly. "You didn't say it, but your eyes clearly showed what you wanted! Xihe is very smart and saw it right away."
Zhao Zizhe choked.
At that time, he really wanted to pull the kite down. It was the only thing that could accompany him in Min Yi Palace.
The emotion he inadvertently revealed was actually captured by Xihe.
"Fifth Brother, you're not feeling well. You're cold in the snow. Let's get up, okay?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Zize's expression suddenly changed, and he pushed Xihe down. His expression, which had been calm for a short while, was filled with madness again.
He just sneered, "Zhao Xihe, you feel sorry for me too, don't you? Seeing that I have a broken leg, you look at me with pity, a poor creature like me, right?"
Xihe was stunned for a moment, and quickly retorted, "Absolutely not! Fifth brother, I didn't mean that!"
The little girl raised her hands, looking very sincere.
Zhao Zizhe snorted coldly, his indifferent eyes filled with malice, "Come on, you're the same as them. Stop pretending to be nice here. You're just disgusting. Go away, and don't let me see you coming to Min Yi Palace again."
