Xiao Yan can't remember why he liked to eat these sweet lumps in the first place.

When he was young, he was poisoned and tortured by pain to the point that life was worse than death, he saw his third uncle Xiao Jixing holding a piece of candy and coaxing his daughter to drink cough medicine.

He knew that the cough medicine itself was sweet, but Xiao Jixing still hugged his daughter distressedly, saying, if you eat sugar and drink medicine, you won't be bitter.

If you eat sugar and drink medicine, won't it be bitter? Xiao Yan wondered why his father and mother never gave him candy when he took medicine.

He went to ask Uncle Six, who patted him on the head and told him that sugar does not make medicine sweet, and it is the person who feeds you sugar that makes medicine sweet.

He didn't seem to understand, so he begged the sixth uncle for a piece of candy and took it to find his mother.

That was his most precious thing, and he felt that if his mother fed herself sugar when she drank the medicine, the medicine would not be bitter.

However, the grain of sugar was thrown on the ground by Wei Rudai and crushed, and the woman said coldly and solemnly, how can her Wei Rudai's son be afraid of the bitterness of medicine, you are a man, do you want to cry like a little girl, it really disappoints her.

Xiao Yan still didn't eat the candy that Wei Rudai fed him in the end, but he stubbornly put the candy in his pocket and ate a piece from time to time.

This is the most precious thing in the world, it is fed to him by himself, and he does not need to rely on anyone.

Along the way, some people hated him, some wanted to kill him, and some surrendered to him, but no one ever said a word to him, if it's too bitter, eat a piece of candy, do you want me to feed you.

Xiao Yan came back to his senses, looked at Chu Yi, and nodded in a hoarse voice: "Yes." ”

Chu Yi: "......" She was just polite, and she didn't really mean to feed him candy.

And how old is he, even if he eats sugar, he still needs to be fed?

However, Xiao Yan's naivety is traceable, just like in his previous life, he would give himself candy in order to let her drink medicine.

When Chu Yi was about to say something, Xiao Yan had already lowered his head, just like the action of Da Lang eating roast meat just now, and grabbed the candy in her palm.

The young man's thin lips gently wiped Chu Yi's hand sockets, slightly cool, and very soft, easily swallowing the sugar into his mouth, evoking a series of messy memories in Chu Yi's mind.

Xiao Yan is a duck who is still hard in his mouth, but his lips are as soft as ever, like a cool breeze blowing in his palm.

What are you thinking? Chu Yi felt that his face was heating up all of a sudden, and he shook his head violently to dispel the picture in his mind.

"Click, click—"

Xiao Yan slowly chewed the sugar in his mouth, and the sound of the candy was particularly pleasant, with a sweet plum flavor.

He lowered his eyes, hiding the pleasure and discomfort in his eyes.

It turned out that Uncle Sixth didn't lie to him.

It's not the sugar that sweetens the medicine, it's the person who feeds it — and when someone feeds it, the sugar really gets sweeter.

Even if Chu Yi is just pitying him, this is the first pity he has received since he was a child.

When Xiao Yan was eating candy, Chu Yi kept a weird blush.

She had to look away from her own gaze and look at Yi Concubine, who she had always been suspicious of.

It was Yi Concubine who wanted to send food to Liu Cheng, and it was Yi Concubine who took the initiative to say that she could give Fu Qianqian to eat jujube paste cake, which led her and Fu Qianqian to Wolf Park.

Chu Yi originally thought that letting Cen Xiao offend himself and Fu Qianqian with his disrespectful words was the purpose of Yi Concubine, but he didn't expect that the snow wolf would jump out of the cage and hurt people.

The body of the maid of the earthly palace had been carried away, leaving only a pool of blood.

This is a bloody human life.

And does this have anything to do with Yi Concubine?

After Yi Concubine was so frightened by the snow wolf that she threw away the food box, perhaps because she watched her palace maid being killed by the snow wolf, she was now sitting pitifully in the corner, sobbing and trembling, and her face was very pale.

"The palace maid just now is from your palace by Concubine Niangniang, and I hope that Niangniang will mourn." Chu Yi walked up to Yi Concubine and said softly.

Yi Concubine trembled, nodded blankly, and a line of tears rolled down: "Yes, yes...... Cui'er is dead. ”

Her expression was seamless, but after Chu Yi approached her, he once again smelled the faint smell of herbs on her.

This time, Chu Yi distinguished, it was the smell of wormwood.

"Yi Concubine Niangniang, you say, why did the wolf go crazy and didn't pounce on you who was closer to it, but killed Cui'er." Chu Yi recalled the previous scene and asked word by word.

Yi Concubine still shook her head, as delicate as a weak willow supporting the wind: "Concubine, concubine doesn't know ......"

Chu Yi took a few steps closer to her, and his lacquer eyes met Yi Concubine's panicked eyes: "Has Yi Concubine Niangniang been sick recently, why do you have some medicinal qi on your body?" ”

"Yes, it's ordinary wormwood, the concubine occasionally felt cold a few days ago, and the imperial doctor asked the concubine to decoction with mugwort leaves......" Yi Concubine replied cautiously.

She admitted it so easily, but it made Chu Yi's eyebrows frown slightly.

Could it be that the wolf didn't like the taste, so he avoided Yi Concubine, and this was just a coincidence?

If it weren't for Da Lang Erlang being tamed by Xiao Yan, she and Fu Qianqian might have ended up with the same fate as the palace maid!

No, there is no oneself, only Fu Qianqian, because if he was according to his previous nature, he would not come to the wolf park with Fu Qianqian.

Chu Yi didn't believe that he was cold, but Yi Concubine's performance couldn't find a flaw - unless, this is a woman who is very good at acting.

She narrowed her eyes, looked at the guards who came and went, and said, "Didn't Niangniang come to deliver meals to Liu Duwei, what about Liu Duwei...... Why haven't you come yet? ”

Concubine Yi also sighed in confusion: "The concubine doesn't know why Ah Di is not here...... His martial arts are far stronger than that Cen Xiao, if he is here, maybe Cui'er will not die. ”

Chu Yi recalled Liu Cheng's featureless face and the appearance of kidney deficiency, and felt that it was still more useful for Cen Xiao.

Her eyes were fixed on the iron cage where the snow wolf was kept, and she was about to check it when a familiar eunuch bulletin came.

"The emperor has arrived—"

The emperor came so quickly! Yi Concubine looked at the people who came, and a trace of happiness for the rest of her life suddenly flashed in her eyes.

Chu Tingxiao, who was dressed in a dark dragon robe, strode over, his face as cold as frost.

"Six-six!" His handsome face was full of anger and worry, until he saw Chu Yi standing in front of him intact, and he carefully examined it back and forth, and then slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"What the hell is going on!? How do you take care of the wolf garden, how do you protect the princess! Chu Tingxiao asked with a low roar.

He was reviewing the recital in the imperial study just now, and learned that the accident in the wolf garden involved Princess Yongning, and he was so frightened that he almost vomited blood.

One of the guards stepped forward and trembled to tell the emperor what had happened.

Next to him, Zhang Desheng skillfully avoided the angry emperor and walked straight to the iron cage to check.

Xiao Yan stepped forward expressionlessly and handed him the things he had picked up on the ground before.

When he heard that Chu Yi was actually protecting Fu Qianqian, Chu Tingxiao's face turned pale.

She is her favorite sixth princess, she is a six-six who has been in poor health since she was a child, she actually has the courage to face the snow wolf, and she actually protected her sister in this situation.

For a moment, he didn't even like his usually beloved niece Fu Qianqian, and then, a deep fear and pride rose in his chest.

"Six-six...... She deserves to be my good daughter, but if there is a next time, don't be so risky again. Chu Tingxiao said seriously, his voice a little choked.
