Chapter 16 Lingering Affection

..................

Shi Yue hugged Shi Xiaoxuan and walked for a long time.

His steps grew heavier and slower.

Gradually, his vision blurred.

He could no longer hold the child in his hand,

The whole body trembled slightly.

They walked under a tree, Shi Yue put the child down, and sat down against the tree trembling slightly.

He was so tired.

Leaning against the tree, slowly, I fell asleep.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Dad, Dad." ”

I don't know how long it took, Shi Yue was woken up by Shi Xiaoxuan's call.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw the childish face of the child.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Shi Yue shook his head weakly: "No, Xuan'er, you let me take a break!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Hmm. ”

He obediently lay on Shi Yue's body and closed his eyes.

When Shi Yue saw him like this, he felt pity.

Shi Yue: "Xuan'er." ”

Shi Xiaoxuan raised his head and looked at him with sparkling eyes.

Shi Yue: "Xuan'er, I originally wanted to send you to your mother......"

Shi Yue: "But ......"

Shi Yue: "My body is ...... I'm so tired...... I can't walk......"

Shi Yue: "I have no choice but to send you to your uncle." ”

Shi Xiaoxuan happily: "Really, great! I haven't seen my uncle for a long time, I really want to see him!"

Shi Yue gently touched his head, seeing how happy he was, and smiled at him slightly.

Slowly, he closed his eyes again weakly, and passed out in a half-unconscious.

..................

The gate of the barracks, guarded by a group of soldiers.

In the distance, two figures walked slowly.

Gradually, it turned out to be a man in a cloth shirt holding a child.

A soldier stepped forward with an iron spear and shouted.

Soldier: "Stop!"

The two men didn't stop, and slowly approached.

Soldier: "Ah, General Shi!"

Hula-la, the dozen or so soldiers rushed up together and surrounded them.

The bright iron spear was pointed directly at them.

Shi Yue looked haggard and looked at them calmly.

Holding the child's hand tightly.

Shi Xiaoxuan was not afraid of this formation at all, and looked at this group of menacing soldiers with big eyes.

Soldier: "General, where have you been?"

Soldier: "I've been chasing you!"

Shi Yue didn't say a word.

The two soldiers escorted them both to the general's tent.

When Shi Yu saw Shi Xiaoxuan, he almost couldn't believe his eyes.

Shi Yu: "Xuan'er!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Uncle!

He ran towards Shi Yu

Shi Yu took a few steps forward and hugged the child.

Both of them were unusually excited, hugging each other and kissing each other.

Shi Yu: "Xuan'er!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Uncle!

Shi Yu: "Where have you been? Do you know how anxious I am? I'm looking for you everywhere!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Uncle, I was kidnapped by the villains!

Only then did Shi Yu notice Shi Yue.

His face sank.

Shi Yue bowed his head and knelt down to him.

Shi Yu: "Hmph, take it!"

The soldier responded and stepped forward to capture Shi Yue.

Shi Xiaoxuan was shocked!

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Dad, Dad, what are you doing? Why do you want to arrest my father!"

He broke free from Shi Yu and went to rescue Shi Yue.

The soldier firmly untied Shi Yue, making him unable to move.

Shi Yu: "Hold the little boy down!"

The soldier answered the call and hugged the child, and no matter how the child struggled, he still carried him out of the tent.

Shi Yu looked at Shi Yue coldly.

Shi Yue didn't dare to meet him, and knelt at his feet with his head down.

Shi Yu said coldly: "Hmph!"

Shi Yue trembled in response.

Shi Yu: "Where have you been these days?"

Shi Yue: "......"

Shi Yu: "Didn't you run away?!"

Shi Yu: "Why are you back again?!"

Shi Yue: "......"

Shi Yu: "You sent it to the door yourself, aren't you afraid of losing your life?"

Shi Jing: "Shi Yue, what about the general's question, where have you been in the past few days?"

Shi Yue bowed his head and was silent.

Shi Yu said coldly: "Hmph!"

Shi Yue trembled.

Shi Yue: "I...... I ......"

Shi Yu: "You, what are you? Say it quickly!"

Shi Yue: "I heard that Xuan'er was kidnapped by the people of the Fuyun Society, so I went to find it, and I ...... it."

Shi Yue stammered: "Go, go save Xuan'er!"

Shi Yu: "How do you know about this?"

Shi Yue: "I, I also listened to others. ”

Shi Yu: "If you know about this, you should tell you, why did you leave the barracks because you made your own decisions?"

Shi Yue: "I, I'm not sure if this is true, I don't dare, I don't dare to tell it." ”

Shi Yu: "Hmph, if you leave the barracks without permission, you belong to defecting and escaping, and you deserve death!"

Shi Yue: "The general spares his life!"

Shi Yu: "Someone!"

Shi Yue kowtowed.

Shi Yue: "The general spares his life! The general spares his life!"

Shi Jing: "General, I don't think he originally wanted to defect, but also to save his son, so he didn't have time to tell the general for a while." ”

Shi Yu: "Even so, the death penalty is temporarily forgiven, and the living crime is inevitable!

Shi Yue: "General, the general forgive me!"

Shi Yue: "I know that I can't escape the blame, and I will never shirk it!"

Shi Yue: "But the old wounds on my body have not healed, if the criminal law is imposed on me again, I am really, really, I can't bear it!"

Shi Yue: "Please forgive the general! Please show mercy to the general!"

Shi Jing knelt down to Shi Yu.

Shi Jing: "General, General Shi is also eager to save his son this time, and thanks to him, he saved Xuan'er back, otherwise, the consequences are really unimaginable!"

Shi Jing: "General, General Shi's injuries are indeed very serious, the rotten muscles have not healed, if he is punished again, he will not be able to bear it!"

Shi Jing: "Besides, the army is about to be sent to pacify the Northern Palace, and it is the time when manpower is urgently needed. ”

Shi Jing: "I beg the general to forgive him for the time being this time, and after he recovers from his injuries and pacifies the Northern Palace, it is not too late to make a decision together according to his merits and demerits!"

Shi Yu: "Hmph! Since General Shi intercedes for you, I will give him a face for the time being." ”

Shi Yu: "After pacifying the Northern Palace, I will make a decision for you according to the situation! If you do it again, you will not be spared!"

Shi Yu: "Criminal responsibility can be put aside for the time being, but punishment is inevitable. Come, drag this sinner out of the tent, and punish him for a day and a night!"

The soldiers dragged Shi Yue out of the tent and knelt on the ground to show the public.

..................

Vaguely, he didn't know how long he knelt down.

The autumn wind, hitting his body, was cool.

His body was thin and his pain was weak, which really made him a little unbearable.

He coughed lowly.

The autumn wind blew his loose hair, and blew on his face,

Emaciated.

His whole body trembled, and his consciousness was blurred.

He felt that he could not hold on any longer.

The body fell down little by little, and was forcibly supported again.

Shi Yue: "Water, water ......"

No one answered him.

His consciousness grew drowsy, and his body curled up in a ball.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, Daddy!"

Shi Xiaoxuan was escorted by a team of soldiers through the barracks.

He saw Shi Yue kneeling from a distance, broke free from the soldier's hand, and ran towards his father.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy!"

He shook the half-unconscious Shi Yue vigorously.

Shi Yue struggled to open his eyes and saw him.

Shi Yue's lips were chapped and he couldn't speak.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, Daddy, you are here! Why don't you come to Xuan'er! Xuan'er misses you so much!"

Shi Yue: "......"

Shi Xiaoxuan pulled Shi Yue.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, let's go, let's go home!"

Shi Yue looked at him.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, why don't you move?"

Shi Yue pulled his lip muscles, the corners of his mouth barely pulled out a smile, his eyes were full of kindness, let him shake and ask, and didn't say anything.

A soldier said to Shi Xiaoxuan: "Little boy, General Shi is being punished, and he can't speak or move at will when he kneels!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, why are you being punished again?"

Soldier: "General Shi violated military regulations, so he is responsible!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "It must be uncle, it must be him again!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "He's punishing his father again!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "It's so annoying!"

Shi Yue hurriedly shook her head at him gently, unable to speak.

Shi Xiaoxuan stroked the scars on his face,

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, you're so thin...... Do you hurt?"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, you have to be obedient, you have to be obedient, don't make mistakes! Like Xuan'er, so that the uncle will not beat you!"

Shi Yue looked at him blankly.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Dad, uncle wants to send me back to my mother, you can go back with me!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Xuan'er wants to sleep in the same bed with you, and I want you to tell me a story!"

Shi Xiaoxuan hugged Shi Yue and approached him, his little face gently rubbing Shi Yue's face.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, is it good, is it good?"

Listening to these immature words, Shi Yue's heart was about to break.

His resolute eyes grew moist.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "If you promise me, Xuan'er will be obedient and be a cute baby, which will make you happy and make your uncle happy, so that your uncle will be happy and will not beat you!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "It's all because Xuan'er is disobedient and often makes the uncle unhappy, so the uncle is angry, and he has to blame you!"

Listening to such a young child's mouth, Shi Yue really had mixed feelings in his heart.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, why do you never sleep in the same bed with me and never play with Xuan'er?"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "It must be that I'm not good!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "In the future, I must listen to my father's words, my uncle's words, my mother's words, obediently, let you all love me!"

He held Shi Yue's face with both hands, and his eyes were so innocent.

There is a lot of love like that.

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Daddy, am I doing this right?"

The child's gaze is as clear as water.

Shi Yue: "......"

Shi Yue felt so sad in her heart.

Shi Xiaoxuan kissed Shi Yue's face,

Saliva stuck Shi Yue's face,

It hurt Shi Yue's wound.

The soldier next to him gently pulled Shi Xiaoxuan, "Little boy, it's not too early, and you have to hurry!"

Shi Xiaoxuan: "Don't, don't want to leave my father!"

He nervously hugged Shi Yue tightly.

The soldiers glanced at each other, but still reached out and forcibly pulled him away from Shi Yue.

Pick him up and walk out of the barracks.

Shi Xiaoxuan struggled hard, and cried with a "wow".

Shi Yue watched him go away distressedly, unable to move.

The wind ruffled his hair and struck on his thin face,

Obscuring his eyes.

The soldier next to him inadvertently looked back and saw,

A line of tears, finally couldn't help it, and quietly slid down the scarred face of the person kneeling on the ground.
