Let y1=3+1x12 and y2=4x2
or x12+y132=1 and y22=4x2
Thus x1,y1 is  on the circle x2+(y3)2=1.
Also, x2,y2 lies on the  upper half of the  parabola y2=4x.
Thus,  the  given  expression  is square  of the shortest  distance between the curves x2+(y3)2=1 and y2=4x.
Now,  the shortest distance  always  occurs  along  the  common normal  to the curves  and  the normal to the circle passes  through the center of the  circle.
Normal  to the  parabola  y2=4x is y=mx2mm3. lt passes through  (0, 3). Therefore,m3+2m+3=0, which  has  only  one  root,m=1. Hence, the corresponding  point on  the  parabola  is (1,2). Thus, the  required  minimum  distance is 1+11=21.
