Snow in Chang'an in December

Another month later, there was a memorial that said that there was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, so the imperial court spent more than a thousand taels of silver to rescue the flood. The current situation is not very good. Shen Ningfeng really has a headache. Shen Zixu would indeed share his worries about the memorial presented in the morning court, and he really did not live up to his original promise.

It was the beginning of summer at this time, it was night, Shen Zixu was walking around holding a book on the art of war, the palace was already very big, and he didn't know where he was going, he rarely saw the scenery in the palace, and he didn't know when he would find it He came to the Thousand Carp Pond.At the beginning, he didn't pay attention to anyone here, but when he closed the scroll, he suddenly heard someone humming to himself, Shen Zixu was curious, followed the sound, and saw a woman with her back turned to him.

Her black hair hung down to her waist, and she was wearing very expensive clothes. She seemed to hear a few soft noises, and she slowly turned her face to look, but she saw that her eyebrows were lightly swept, without any makeup on her face, but she was already As cold and beautiful as a fairy, her eyes were like water, and she looked at Shen Zixu with a little indifference.

Shen Zixu was overjoyed, wasn't the person in front of him the sweetheart he had been thinking about day and night?

The two were thinking about each other, after a while of silence, Concubine Shu wanted to leave, how could Shen Zixu let her go, he thought for a while, and then followed Concubine Shu with slow steps.

Shen Zixu smiled slightly: "Do you recognize me?"

Concubine Shu glanced at him with her phoenix eyes, and then her face was blank.

"I...I picked up the veil for you, do you remember?" Shen Zixu was obviously nervous, after speaking, he lowered his head slightly and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

"Forgot." She thought this man was a little funny, she remembered that she had never seen him, how could he pick up the veil for herself?

Shen Zixu was startled when he heard the words, he hadn't come back to his senses for a long time, he didn't think of how to answer until Concubine Shu had gone far away, but the person had already left, he couldn't help but look at the scene in Qianli Pond with some disappointment. carp.After watching for a long time, he didn't come back to his senses until there were warm palms on his shoulders. He blinked his sour eyes and wanted to cry.

"Zixu," Shen Ningfeng kissed his right ear, "I've seen it all."

Shen Zi was silent, but because of his words, he recalled what Concubine Shu just said, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, then turned his face away.

"Good boy." Shen Ningfeng patted him on the back, then hugged him into his arms, and said in a coaxing tone, "Feng'er is here."

Shen Zixu leaned into Shen Ningfeng's arms, his heart became more and more bitter, he rested his head on Shen Ningfeng's shoulder, and then lowered his eyes, he was really afraid that being seduced step by step by Shen Ningfeng would eventually make him irreparable He thought that in this life, maybe only his mother and Shen Ning Fengfang would treat him so well, right?

"...You, why are you here?" Shen Zixu was a little panicked, recalling Shen Ningfeng's words, it seemed that he had seen everything...

"Tossing and turning without sleep, I came out for a walk, just happened to be here, and saw you."

Well?Shen Zixu was a little taken aback.

Shen Ning was not annoyed, and stretched out his hand to lightly pinch Shen Zixu's beautiful nose: "Why do you like her?" Although his tone was soft, his eyes were full of disappointment and discomfort.

Shen Zixu shook his head: "I don't know, but I... can't let go, and I can't... fall in love with a man."

Before he knew it, it was the middle of May, and there was a memorial that said that someone in the Southern Barbarian region was planning to rebel. When Shen Ningfeng heard this, he frowned slightly. He couldn't help turning his face to look at the person on the small couch. After hearing the words, his brows were slightly frowned, and none of the memorials presented later was a happy event. At this time, the government is not stable, and he is the new emperor who has not been on the throne for less than a year, and the surrounding small countries are all eyeing him.

After the morning court, Shen Ningfeng hadn't gotten up yet, the bead curtain covered his anxious expression, he thought it was easy to be a good emperor, and then he couldn't help laughing at himself.He suddenly remembered that person, and then turned to look at the small couch. Shen Zixu was holding a book on the art of war and carefully reading it. Shen Zixu memorized every word in the book in his heart.

"Zi Xu." He called softly.

Shen Zixu heard the sound, closed the scroll, raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Walk with me."

"Ah."

There was a gentle breeze in the middle of summer, neither cold nor hot, and it was quite comfortable. The two walked side by side, sometimes chatting a few words, and then there was a silence. The scenery in the middle is beautiful, but the two of them never looked at it carefully.

Stepping on dead branches on the ground, the two stopped when they reached the depths of the palace. The palace was so huge that even Shen Ningfeng didn't know where it was. The palace is completely gone.

"The day I returned to the palace, I heard that my mother had already died of illness." He looked at the vermilion-painted palace wall in front of him, and couldn't help sighing, his tone was neither sad nor sad, "But I haven't even seen a single face..."

"Don't be sad." Shen Zixu patted him on the shoulder.

The two were speechless for a while.

Suddenly, Shen Zixufang thought of his parents who had not been seen for a long time. He turned to look at Shen Ningfeng beside him, and only frowned and asked, "Ning Feng, where did my parents go?" When they first met, Shen Ningfeng said that his parents would be reunited with him.

"I'll take you to meet them in a few days."

Shen Zi said nothing, just lowered his head.

"Zixu, I'm so tired." Shen Ningfeng hugged Shen Zixu into his arms, resting his head on his shoulder, and said sullenly.

Shen Zixu followed his back, didn't know how to answer, only felt slightly worried, he and him were brothers who had been together for many years, no matter how good he was as an older brother, he had to care about his younger brother Shen Ningfeng.

"I'm afraid that one day when I wake up, I will be a prisoner. Zixu, what do you think I should do...?" Shen Ning Fengjue can only feel at ease when he is in Shen Zixu's arms.

"Ning Feng, since you are my younger brother, I will share your worries. Besides, didn't I promise to protect this country for you?" Shen Ningfeng couldn't help being startled when he heard the words in a rare gentle tone.

"Would you like me to go to the Southern Barbarian Land to find out?" Shen Zixu lowered his eyes.

As soon as these words came out, Shen Ningfeng let go of Shen Zixu, his eyes were red, and he kicked the stones under his feet as if he was sullen. Lips watched his movements, but did not speak.

After a while, Shen Ning said: "No!" He turned his face slowly, his eyes were full of anger.

"..."

"How could you not know that I won't allow you to leave me again?" Shen Ningfeng stood with his hands behind his back, his back straight, and his bright yellow dragon robe embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon seemed to show his loneliness even more, "Shen Zixu , you should have known that you can only be mine."

"How could you be like this..." Shen Zixu shook his head, he only felt that what the person in front of him said really terrified him.

"What's wrong with me?" Shen Ning smiled, as if mocking himself or wryly, he raised his hand and pulled up Shen Zixu's black hair, looking at his heroic eyebrows wrinkled from the pain, seeing his steaming due to the pain eyes, "Shen Zixu, I would rather never know you."

"Ning Feng..."

"Shut up!" Shen Ningfeng let go, he slowly closed his eyes, and calmed down the anger in his heart. After a long time, he opened his eyes, and the man was still standing in front of his eyes, "Don't bring this up again." After speaking, he shook his sleeves and left. go.

Shen Zi remained silent, only feeling slightly guilty. He opened his palm, looked at the lines on his palm, and couldn't help but recall what the old fortune-teller said that day. He was a little uneasy, he was afraid that one day he would fall into the abyss.He closed his eyes and let the summer wind gently brush his black hair——

Ning Feng, if possible, I would rather go back to my childhood with you, playing and playing, not knowing the importance, isn't this a kind of blessing? ?
