Go to Qingqiu together
Chapter 4
Shen Xubai had another nightmare.
In the dream, just like the scene three years ago, the entire Prince Ning's Mansion was in flames.
The sound of the long knife falling was extremely ear-piercing, and blood spattered on the wall.
Following the sound of the long knife cutting flesh, Shen Xubai knelt down on the ground, and behind him, Xu Qingjian was holding a long knife tightly in his hand, the blade was full of blood, drops of blood were still flowing from the knife Drip on tip.
Xu Qingjian was panting heavily, the hair on his forehead was completely wet with sweat, his hand holding the knife also started to tremble, and soon fell to the ground with a bang.
"Qingjian... Am I not good to you?" Shen Xubai gritted his teeth in pain, looking at Xu Qingjian with blank and unbelievable eyes.
Xu Qingjian's face was pale and his whole body was trembling, but he didn't explain anything.
The door in front of him was kicked open, and the prince led someone in.
"Well done, Qingjian, come here." The prince looked at Xu Qingjian with satisfaction.
Xu Qingjian walked towards the prince with a pale face.
"Xu Qingjian!"
As if unwilling, Shen Xubai stared at Xu Qingjian, gritted his teeth and said: "You are not allowed to go, come back..."
Following Shen Xubai's voice, Xu Qingjian's footsteps stopped, and his face turned even paler.
"Come back...Xu Qingjian, you...come back." Shen Xubai propped himself up from the ground.
The wound on his back was bleeding continuously, and every movement felt tearing pain, but he just wanted to go forward and catch Xu Qingjian back.
But it didn't last long, Shen Xubai felt that his eyes went dark for a while, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
In the blur, Xu Qingjian seemed to look back at him.
That was the last time he saw Xu Qingjian three years ago.
Shen Xubai woke up from the dream, lying on the bed panting for breath, the winding old wound on his back seemed to start to ache again.
In fact, three years have passed, and the wound has long since ceased to hurt, but every time Shen Xubai thinks about what happened back then, he will recall the pain when he was cut by Xu Qingjian that day.
He believed in Xu Qingjian so much that he dared to show his back to him.
But when Xu Qingjian dropped the long knife, he didn't hesitate at all.
Shen Xubai stayed on the bed for a long time, then got out of bed, put on his clothes, and went to the place where Xu Qingjian lived before, where Shen Nian lives now.
Since the last time Xu Qingjian sneaked into Prince Ning's Mansion over the wall and was discovered by him, Xu Qingjian really didn't come in again, but he would sit at the gate of the Palace every day, and he didn't know what he was going to do, and he had been sitting continuously It has been several days, sitting from day to night.
Shen Xubai didn't want to care about him either, no matter what, he didn't intend to let Xu Qingjian take Shen Nian away, Niannian could only follow him by Shen Xubai's side.
Xu Qingjian was the one who said he liked it back then, he was the one who betrayed him, and he was the one who gave birth to the child without saying a word, so why should everything belong to him.
When Shen Xubai arrived, Niannian had already gotten up, and the servant girl in the mansion was helping him to dress.
"My lord." Seeing Shen Xubai, the little maid quickly stood up and saluted.
"En." Shen Xubai nodded slightly: "You step back."
The little maid responded and stepped back obediently.
Shen Xubai walked to Shen Nian's side, and continued to help him put on the clothes.
"After breakfast later, can I take you out to play?" Shen Xubai asked Shen Nian out loud.
Shen Nian looked at Shen Xubai with a pair of black eyes, then nodded obediently.
"Then, will Daddy go too?" Shen Nian asked in a low voice.
Over the past few days, Shen Nian is no longer afraid of Shen Xubai.
"He won't go." Shen Xubai's hands stopped for a while.
Inexplicably, he began to imagine what Xu Qingjian would look like when he was sitting at the gate of the palace.
"Father, father..." Shen Nian grabbed his sleeve nervously, calling out to Shen Xubai cautiously.
Hearing Shen Nian calling him that, Shen Xubai couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at him questioningly.
He rarely calls himself that.
"I miss Daddy." Shen Nian said softly.
Seeing Shen Nian's cautious look, Shen Xubai frowned slightly, and did not speak for a while.
After a while, he said in a low voice: "Then you bring your father in later, if he doesn't want to, he can't blame me."
"Yes, is it possible?" Shen Nian's eyes lit up immediately.
"En." Shen Xubai nodded: "But it depends on your performance, as long as you eat obediently later, it's fine."
Perhaps because of Xu Qingjian's absence, Shen Nian didn't eat much every time he ate.
"Niannian will." Shen Nian replied obediently after hearing the words.
Sure enough, Shen Nian ate a lot more during breakfast, Shen Xubai felt a little satisfied seeing him eating obediently.
After breakfast, Shen Xubai walked around the mansion with Shen Nian in his arms, and then took him out.
Children at this age sleep a lot, when Shen Xubai went out with Nian Nian in his arms, Nian Nian had already fallen asleep in his arms.
Shen Xubai looked down at Nian Nian who was huddled together, feeling a strange feeling in his heart.
The child's body was warm and soft, and with breathing, his body still undulated slightly, especially from this angle, he and Xu Qingjian looked somewhat similar.
When walking out of the gate, the guard outside the gate subconsciously wanted to call Shen Xubai, afraid of waking Niannian, Shen Xubai glanced at them, signaling them not to speak, the guard immediately silenced, and only bowed respectfully.
Shen Xubai stood still at the door, and began to look for Xu Qingjian's figure.
Same as the previous few days, he was still sitting on the steps of the door, in the same position, the difference was that he was actually sleeping at the moment.
Xu Qingjian's arms were folded on his knees, and his face was also buried in his arms and he was in a deep sleep.
"..."
Shen Xubai looked at Xu Qingjian who was sleeping on the steps, and then at Shen Nian who was also sleeping soundly in his arms, he was speechless for a while.
Or how to say it is father and son.
Shen Xubai glanced at Xu Qingjian in disgust, then turned and left without saying a word.
But Xu Qingjian still sat on the steps and slept for a while and woke up for a while.
Sitting and sleeping like this is really uncomfortable, but Xu Qingjian has no other place to go, and Shen Xubai doesn't allow him to enter the palace.
In fact, he wouldn't doze off today, mainly because he really didn't sleep well last night.
About two hours later, Shen Xubai came back with Shen Nian in his arms.
When the two of them went out, their hands were still empty, and when they came back, they were full of things. Nian Nian held several small things in his hands, and Shen Xubai also carried a lot of things, all of which were bought for Nian Nian, and there were many things he asked for. The shopkeeper then sent it directly to the palace.
Shen Xubai did not expect Xu Qingjian to be still asleep when he came back, he stood still at the gate of the palace, looking at him speechlessly.
"Daddy!" Shen Nian saw Xu Qingjian at a glance, and immediately wanted to go down to the ground.
Without saying a word, Shen Xubai put Shen Nian on the ground, and let him run to Xu Qingjian's side.
Xu Qingjian seemed to hear Shen Nian's voice calling him in a daze, and when he raised his head in a daze, he saw Shen Nian running in front of him.
"Daddy!" Shen Nian held Xu Qingjian's face with two small hands and looked up at him.
"Nian Nian..." Xu Qingjian quickly pulled Shen Nian into his arms.
"Daddy can't sleep like this, he will get sick." Shen Nian said to Xu Qingjian in a soft tone.
Xu Qingjian would say that when he slept like this before.
"Daddy understands, thank you Niannian." Xu Qingjian pursed his lips, lowered his head and kissed Shen Nian on the face.
Then Xu Qingjian saw Shen Xubai not far away, he was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously hugged Shen Nian a little tighter.
Shen Xubai just glanced at him coldly, and went to the mansion without saying anything.
"Daddy, father has entered, let's go." Niannian grabbed Xu Qingjian's hand and said aloud.
Xu Qingjian was stunned for a moment, quickly got up from the ground, and let Niannian take her hand to walk forward.
Because Nian Nian was too short, Xu Qingjian had to bend over when he pulled her away.
He didn't know if he would be stopped by the guards at the door, so he tried to get as close as possible to Nian Nian, so that the guards might think they were together and would not stop him.
Miraculously, Xu Qingjian was not stopped outside, he was dragged into the mansion by Nian Nian just like that, so Xu Qingjian embraced Nian Nian with some surprise.
"Nian Nian, isn't Uncle Shen in a good mood today?" Xu Qingjian asked tentatively, "By the way, why did you suddenly call him father again just now? Did he ask you to call him that?"
"Yeah, he asked me to call him that." Shen Nian nodded.
Xu Qingjian looked at Shen Nian in a daze, and nodded with a vague understanding.
In fact, even if he sneaked in, he was still a little worried. After all, Shen Xubai had warned him before that he was not allowed to come in again, but at that time he said that he was not allowed to come in over the wall. It should be fine if he came in openly.
Just thinking about it, Xu Qingjian suddenly stopped.
I saw Shen Xubai standing not far away looking at him, as if he was waiting for him.
Xu Qingjian stood there for quite a while, then said tremblingly: "My lord..."
Shen Xubai ignored him, just gave him a cold look and left.
"You didn't drive me away..." Xu Qingjian looked at Shen Xubai's back and scratched his head in shock.
Xu Qingjian paused for a while, then carried Shen Nian to continue walking inside, and he brought Shen Nian back to his previous residence.
Not long after sitting down, Housekeeper Liu came to look for him, saying that Shen Xubai was waiting for him in the study.
Xu Qingjian was still very scared of Shen Xubai, but he had no choice but to disappear, so he still went bravely, but he walked very slowly along the way, hesitantly.
When he arrived, Shen Xubai was standing at the door of the study, it seemed that he had been waiting for him for a long time.
Xu Qingjian was startled, and quickly stepped forward.
"My lord." Xu Qingjian called out to Shen Xubai.
Shen Xubai glanced at him with displeasure, and said: "I have asked Steward Liu to inform you a long time ago, you walk so slowly? Or is it difficult for you to get to this point now?"
In the dream, just like the scene three years ago, the entire Prince Ning's Mansion was in flames.
The sound of the long knife falling was extremely ear-piercing, and blood spattered on the wall.
Following the sound of the long knife cutting flesh, Shen Xubai knelt down on the ground, and behind him, Xu Qingjian was holding a long knife tightly in his hand, the blade was full of blood, drops of blood were still flowing from the knife Drip on tip.
