Snow in Chang'an in December

?Days are dull, more than ten years have passed quietly, and it is the 15th Lantern Festival. Today, Shen Ningfeng rarely stays at home to read.Unknowingly, it was night, and everyone in Shen's residence gathered joyfully, but seeing Master Shen sitting at the main seat with a smile on his face, he first took a sip of wine, and then praised Shen Ningfeng for how well-behaved he had learned from being a teacher .

Shen Zixu was used to hearing it long ago, he was dissatisfied with his lowered eyes, he always felt that his father mostly forgot him, but when he was lost, he saw a hand covering his own, Shen Zixu couldn't help but startled, and slowly turned his face, The goal was Shen Ningfeng's concerned expression.

"What's wrong?" He said softly.

Shen Zixu's face changed, and then he stepped on Shen Ningfeng's foot. Seeing that Shen Ningfeng was trying his best to bear it because he didn't dare to cry out the pain, Shen Zixu couldn't help but feel that he was in a good mood, and the previous anger and dissatisfaction was swept away. .

Master Shen hasn't noticed what's wrong with the two of them yet, and he is still talking with great interest. Mrs. Shen, with her chin resting on one arm, also feels a little bored, so she just heard Master Shen say: "It's rare for the Lantern Festival, how about writing a poem?" When these words came out, Shen Zixu couldn't help feeling joyful, he only hoped that his father would let him come, but nothing ever went against his Shen Zixu's wishes, so he heard Master Shen continue: "Feng'er, you come." But Seeing Master Shen looking at Shen Ningfeng lovingly.

"I will use the festival as the theme."

Everyone in the room looked at Shen Ningfeng, seeing him frowning slightly, tilting his head to think for a long time, but never thought of a word, Shen Zixu couldn't help snickering, his chin resting on his arms, the corners of his lips slightly raised, Looking at Shen Ningfeng with smiling eyes, it seemed that he wanted to see Shen Ningfeng make a joke.

After a long time, Shen Ningfeng finally opened his mouth: "Zi Xu..."

Shen Zixu couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, but he was actually looking forward to his next words.

"The geese are flying, the winter plums are falling, the festive season is here, and every son talks about it." After hearing this, it is obvious that Shen Ningfeng is talking nonsense.

Shen Zixu lowered his eyes and felt slightly annoyed. If his father found out about the two of them... Shen Zixu didn't want to think about it anymore. He knew that no matter what happened, his father would definitely protect Shen Ning very well. Ning Feng, even if he is not his father's own son.

Master Shen was stunned for a while, and when he came back to his senses, he kept praising, and then there was a burst of appreciation. Shen Zixu listened to his father's words, but he felt jealous. When Cai saw his master got up, he rushed forward to help him, but Shen Zixu didn't reach out to stop him, he just bowed indifferently: "Father, Zixu wants to go back to rest."

As soon as this remark came out, the Shen residence, which was originally filled with laughter, became silent. Shen Ningfeng looked at Shen Zixu with concern and anxiety. Shen Zixu quietly raised his eyes to look at everyone present. When he saw Shen Ningfeng, he couldn't help but glared at him. , but he was afraid that Shen Ningfeng would know that he was staring at him, so Shen Zixu quickly lowered his head a little.

"It's rare to get together today, and you actually said that you want to go back to your room to rest?" Master Shen's eyes widened, and his eyes were slightly sullen, "No! Sit here!"

"Brother, don't be afraid if I'm here." Seeing Shen Zixu's body trembling slightly, Shen Ningfeng felt a little distressed, and pulled him, wanting to pull him into his arms, but Shen Zixu stood stubbornly on the spot, and he I don't want to hurt him with all my strength, so I have to let him.

Shen Zixu raised his head slowly, his eyes were already red, he endured it for a long time before he spoke: "Father, why do you treat me like this?" He spoke very slowly, as if he was trying his best to hold back his trembling voice.

"The Zhuang family's relatives and friends all say that I am the dead star, and they all say that I killed her...you treat me so alienated from me... but are you afraid of the bad luck that I, the dead star, will bring to you?"

"Shut up!" Master Shen's expression changed drastically when he heard that, he just slapped his palm down on the table, looking at Shen Zixu he felt a little strange.

"Today, I am a loser, so I will leave this place and never come back!" After speaking, he left with all his sleeves, walking very fast.

Seeing that his master left, Tian Cai hurriedly stepped forward to follow him regardless of what was going on, while the rest of Mr. Shen sat in the master's seat in astonishment. Mrs. Shen was worried, but she felt relieved when she saw Tian Cai following her. Going, Mrs. Shen was exhausted, she wanted to tell Shen Ningfeng a few words, but before she could speak, she saw that Shen Ningfeng had already left with Shen Zixu.

The Shen residence, which was originally full of harmony and laughter, has ended up like this, and then relatives and friends left one after another. It was the Lantern Festival, and it should be lively, but at this time, only sighs are left.The big red lantern hanging high in front of Shen's residence was also blown away by the wind at some point.

It was already late at this time, and it was Lantern Festival night, there were not many people on the street, and many shops on both sides of the street had already been closed, which made the night even more lonely. When Shen Ningfeng found him, he was crying. When Shen Ningfeng saw his tears, he couldn't help being surprised. In his memory, except for a few times when he was a child, he never cried again, but this time, Shen Zixu actually cried.

Shen Ningfeng hugged him into his arms, and found that his neck was slightly wet, but he didn't care much, he just patted Shen Zixu's back to comfort him, turned his face away, and just turned a blind eye.

"Dad, did you blame me for being so... ruthless?"

"No wonder." Shen Ningfeng replied softly, stroking his back.

"Daddy once said that a man from the Shen family doesn't shed tears easily..."

Shen Ningfeng knew that he listened to the words of his elders very much, he asked this question because he was not sure that his father never blamed him, Shen Ningfeng didn't know how to comfort him, he just stroked Shen Zixu's back without saying a word, for a long time, suddenly felt The person in his arms struggled to get up, but he let go, seeing that Shen Zixu was fine, he felt much more at ease.

Shen Zixu's cheeks were slightly red, he turned around with his hands behind his back, coughed a few times, and called out softly, "Tian Cai."

At this time, he was looking up at the moon, and when Shen Zixu called out a few times, he turned his face in a daze, then knelt down on the ground, kowtowed to Shen Zixu and said in surprise: "Ah? Master... the little one is here, the little one is here, master What do you want to tell the little one?"

Shen Ningfeng looked at Shen Zixu who turned his back to him, and felt a little uneasy for some reason in his heart. In his memory, the gentle elder brother always loved to read in the room after recovering from a serious illness when he was young. Painting, and rarely going out a few times, Mrs. Shen really loves him very much. In the cold winter, it is convenient for him to add a few more stoves in the room. In the hot summer, people often bring tea to cool off. The so-called treating him is exhausting. thought.

It's just that what he said to his father just now is not his concern?Shen Ningfeng understood Shen Zixu's thoughts, he had known him since childhood, so why didn't he not understand what he was thinking?

"You send the Second Young Master back to the Shen residence." Shen Zixu's eyes were tired.

Tian Cai was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Then... what about you, Eldest Young Master?"

"I want to go to the capital to have a look."

"Eldest son, don't you want to be younger?" Tian Cai immediately grinned when he heard this, and was about to burst into tears.

Shen Zixu smiled indifferently, turned to look at Shen Ningfeng, then stretched out his hand to help Tiancai up, "Tiancai, you can believe that the day I come back will be beautiful and beautiful, people will come here in sedan chairs, and everyone will call me A Shen Zhuangyuan?" Tian Cai nodded blankly, Shen Zixu couldn't help smiling, and stretched out his hand to gently pinch Tian Cai's slightly round face.

At the end, he turned around and walked to Shen Ningfeng, and smiled at him——

"Ning Feng, when I am in high school, I will bring you to Beijing to become an official."

How could he forget who Shen Zixu wanted to meet when he entered the palace...

Shen Ning closed his eyes, but when he saw the corners of his lips slightly raised, he felt a very bitter smile, and then he heard him say: "I don't want to be an official, I just want the glass of wine that the emperor gave you." He couldn't help but think of what Mr. In other words, if you become the emperor, why not be afraid of not getting what you want?

Suddenly the hatchback was speechless.

"Zixu, I like to hear you call me Feng'er." Shen Ningfeng moved closer to him, smelling the faint scent of medicine on his body, and then couldn't help but kiss the man's lips. down.

Goose Xuefei,

Every child talks.

"The spring rains are continuous, and a hundred flowers are in full bloom. I am fortunate enough to know my son in my life."

After a long time, the lips parted, and the silver thread remained unbroken.
