Shen Xiao was mad.

When I was in the palace, I was hindered by others, so I didn't get angry. Out of Fengtianmen, the carriage was already waiting at the city gate, Shen Zizheng hurriedly ran over to open the curtain for Shen Xiao, who expected Shen Xiao to kick him aside, flick his sleeves and get into the car. When Shen Zi'an saw it, he was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped forward to support his eldest brother's arm, and there was a little cry in his voice, "Big brother, ......." Shen Zizheng didn't care about the pain, and he didn't dare to speak, but he hurriedly pushed the child to the car, and he followed closely and got into the car.

Sitting down, Shen Zi'an quietly raised his head, and secretly looked at his father from the bottom up, only to see Shen Xiao sitting precariously, his face was pale, and his appearance was extremely scary. "Daddy." Shen Zi'an shouted as if flattering, but Shen Xiao just kept his face calm, closed his eyes, and ignored him. Seeing this, Shen Zi'an secretly turned his head to look at Shen Zizheng on the side, and saw that he was just with his eyes lowered and motionless, so he had to sit upright obediently, no longer looking left and right.

After being speechless all the way, I finally arrived at the Shen Mansion. Shen Ziheng waited in the hall early, and when he saw Shen Xiao coming in, he immediately greeted him with tea and said, "Father is tired. Shen Xiao took the tea, brought it to his mouth, and was about to take a sip, but put it down again, and said sharply: "You two go to the ancestral hall for me to kneel, without my consent, you are not allowed to get up!" Shen Zizheng and the others didn't dare to say more, so they arched their hands and said, "Yes." He bowed his head and withdrew. Shen Ziheng saw that his father was very angry, so he stepped forward and asked cautiously, "I wonder why my father is so angry?" I hope you will be relieved and be careful of hurting your body. Shen Xiao paused for the movement of his hand, put the tea cup on the table, turned to look at Shen Ziheng, raised his hand behind his back and said coldly: "Your brother is punished, what are you curious about?" Don't worry about what you shouldn't ask, haven't I taught you before? Shen Zi shuddered sideways, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "What my father taught. Before he finished speaking, Shen Xiao turned around and went out of the door and went to the ancestral hall.

Here, the two of them knelt in unison in front of the ancestral tablet. After a while, Shen Zi'an felt soreness in his legs, and he made a gesture to stand up and slow down. Shen Zizheng hurriedly grabbed him and scolded in a low voice, "Don't move, be careful that your father comes to beat you." Shen Zi'an pursed his lips, the strength in his body relaxed, sat on his lap, turned his face to look at the eldest brother, and complained in a wailing voice: "Big brother, I can't kneel." ”

"Bear with me." Shen Zizheng only said that he was a child's temper, and he didn't want to pay attention to it, still looking straight ahead.

Shen Zi'an didn't give up, climbed to his brother's side with his hands and feet, squeezed Shen Zizheng with his body, and asked in a low voice: "Big brother, why do you say my father is so angry?" ”

"You still say!" Shen Zizheng glared at him fiercely, "It's not like you're running around!" ”

"Obviously, the eldest brother let go of my hand." Shen Zi'an was not convinced.

"Then you can't just wait there? Everything I say to you is on deaf ears! ”

"It's just that the eldest brother is not good."

The two were blaming each other, Shen Zizheng only heard a gust of wind whistling in his ears, followed by a hot pain in his back, and when he turned his head, Shen Xiao was standing behind him with a whip, so frightened that he quickly lowered his head, turned around, and knelt upright, not daring to say anything at all. There was a whip sound, and Shen Zizheng was hit his back. Shen Xiao said angrily, "You have grown a lot, and you already dare to laugh in the ancestral hall." ”

"My son doesn't dare." Shen Zizheng said tremblingly, and the clothes on his back were already oozing a little blood.

Shen Xiao laughed angrily, "Your eldest brother deserves to be excellent, as the prince's companion, he actually let his brother run to Changming Palace." ”

Although Shen Zi'an said that it was the eldest brother's fault, seeing that he was beaten for his nonsense, he naturally blamed himself in his heart, and hurriedly crawled over to hug Shen Xiao's legs, crying, "It's that I don't listen to my eldest brother, beg my father to punish me, don't beat my eldest brother again." Shen Xiao pulled out his leg suddenly, just wanted to scold, looked down, but found that the jade ornament on Shen Zi'an's neck was gone, so he asked sharply: "Where is the jade bead I gave you?" Shen Zi'an subconsciously reached out and touched his neck, only then did he remember, so he explained in a low voice, "When I was in Changming Palace, I saw that His Royal Highness was sad, so I gave it to him." ”

Shen Zizheng was sweating in shock on the side, and shouted in his heart, "It's over now." ”

Sure enough, Shen Xiao was so angry that his hands trembled, and he didn't think about it and was about to whip Shen Zi'an, Shen Zi'an was still young after all, and he instinctively wanted to hide, but he was hit in the face, and his little face instantly swollen, and the red whip marks oozed out a trace of blood after a while. Seeing this, even Shen Xiao was stunned, but Shen Zi'an was not afraid, straightened up and asked solemnly: "I don't know what my son did wrong to make my father so angry?" Only then did Shen Xiao react, pointing to the ancestral tablet in front of him, and said angrily: "My Shen family has been an official for generations, and I have never formed a gang, let alone a henchman, if you give the jade bead to the second prince, wouldn't you want to keep someone to handle it and be criticized!" ”

"It's just a jade bead, why should my father worry so much?" Shen Zi'an was puzzled.

Shen Xiao was so angry that he fainted, "Today's prince is gentle and generous, and he is deeply liked by the king, Gu Xuan's face is vicious, if you deceive the king in the future, where do you want to put the Shen family?!" ”

When Shen Zi'an heard this, he couldn't help but sneer, "Father just said that he wouldn't do anything about fly camps, but at this time, he thinks that the prince is gentle and His Royal Highness is vicious, if I give the jade bead to the prince, my father is afraid that he won't be angry?" Besides, the Second Highness is only ten years old, what can he do to be called vicious? It turns out that the eldest brother can get his father's appreciation as the prince's companion, and I just strayed into the Chang'an Palace, and my father was going to be furious? ”

Shen Zizheng heard this, and hurriedly went to cover his mouth. Shen Xiao trembled, and couldn't say anything, so he could only sigh, "How can Wan'er give birth to something like you who doesn't know what to do!" That's it, it's better for me to kill you today, we're all over the place! As he spoke, he clenched his whip and raised his hand to whip it at Shen Zi'an. Shen Zizheng couldn't care so much, stood up and hugged Shen Xiao violently, shouting: "Ask my father to calm his anger, if you hurt your son, it's a small matter, and your father must not be angry!" The tablets of the ancestors and mothers are still here, if they know about it, they will be sad to see today's scene! ”

Jia Shi and Shen Ziheng were not at ease, they had been guarding outside the house for a long time, and when they heard such a big movement inside, Jia Shi gritted his teeth, pushed open the door, grabbed Shen Xiao's arm and cried: "Zi'an is still young, he is not sensible, he accidentally collided with the master, you and him have a good talk, why bother to be so atmospheric, let outsiders know about it is not a joke!" ”

Shen Xiao saw that his wife and children had come to persuade him, and his heart calmed down a little, so he shook off Shen Zizheng and Jia's family, thought for a moment, slammed the whip in front of his youngest son, and walked away.
