CHAPTER XV

By the time Gu Yan was happy, it was already evening. Mei Changjing happened to be on the day to go home, so he followed the little girl at home. Gu Ying and the others finally bid farewell to everyone and returned to Changming Palace together. Gu Xuan was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and as soon as he entered the door, he yelled for someone to prepare food. Before the words fell, I saw a temple man from Shaoyang Palace waiting in the house with a cage.

"What is this?" Gu Xuan asked.

The temple people hurriedly greeted him and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered me to send it to Shen Gongzi, saying that this is a gadget he promised, I don't know if it is still in line with Gongzi's wishes?" ”

Shen Zi'an was naturally very happy when he saw that the little fox was snow-white and probed his brain. So he took the cage and said with a smile, "I like it very much, and I bother His Highness." It's late now, I'll go to Shaoyang Palace early tomorrow morning to thank Your Highness. ”

The temple people received the order, and as soon as they withdrew, Gu Ying closed the door, grabbed the cage and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Shen Zi'an pounced on the fox and replied casually, "Just now in the back garden, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince promised to give it to me." ”

"Why didn't you tell me." Gu Xuan's voice sank instantly.

Shen Zi'an saw that he was angry, and he only felt confused, "What kind of character is Your Highness making trouble with?" ”

Gu Xuan threw the cage on the table next to him and said, "If you stay away from my eldest brother, he must not be kind." ”

Shen Zi'an was also stubborn, "I don't think so, His Royal Highness told me all day long that the prince is not, and when I saw him today, I knew that the prince was gentle and humble, and he was not as unbearable as you said." But His Highness always loses his temper, which is very annoying. ”

"I've been with Gu Heng for more than 12 years, and you're just a one-sided friend with him, but now it's because I have a prejudice against him? He treats you like this just because you are General Shen's sister-in-law, and he wants to win you over. If you were someone else, you said what you just said, and it would have been over a long time ago! Seeing that Shen Zi'an didn't want to pay attention to him, Gu Xuan was even more angry and stomped his feet, "If you think I'm exaggerating, why don't you want to think about how he treats me?" Could it be that what I say on a daily basis is a lie? ”

After a long time, Shen Zi'an didn't say anything, Gu Xuan only felt that he had smashed his fist on the cotton, his heart was angry and sad, and even his voice couldn't stop trembling, "Shen Zi'an, why don't you even believe me!" ”

After that, Gu Xuan sneered a few times, opened the cage and dragged the fox out. Shen Zi'an saw that the little thing was squeaking in fright, and hurriedly stepped forward to break Gu Xuan's hand. Who knew that Gu Ying raised his foot and kicked him in the stomach, kicked him far away, and then grabbed the young fox's mouth, tore it in half, opened the door and threw it into the snow.

When Gu Xuan entered the house again, Shen Zi'an was holding his stomach and struggling to get up. Gu Xuan instinctively wanted to help him, but before he could get closer, Shen Zi'an shouted, "Don't come here!" Only then did Gu Xuan see clearly that the face of the child in front of him was full of horror and anger, and there were tears in his eyes.

"Zi'an, it's just a fox, why should we be angry because of it." Gu Xuan laughed a few times, trying to explain something.

"Don't come here." Shen Zi'an subconsciously stepped back, and there was a hint of crying in his voice.

The two were in a stalemate, only to hear a maid report that someone had sent something. Before the two of them could react, a young servant entered the house with a bright yellow cloak and said, "This is for His Royal Highness by the Prince, it is cold tonight, and His Highness can also warm up by wearing this." ”

Gu Xuan was very puzzled, so he asked, "Didn't Shaoyang Palace just send something?" If you're going to send a cloak, why don't you send it with you? ”

"The villain doesn't know ......," the little guy was stunned for a moment, and replied hesitantly.

Gu Xuan only felt that this person looked at Mian Sheng, but he didn't want to ask again, so he had to accept his clothes, thank him, and send him away.

The cloak was placed here, and as soon as Gu Xuan turned around, he saw Shen Zi'an going out the door. Gu Xuan was in a hurry, took a few steps and grabbed him and asked, "It's getting late, where are you going?" ”

"Don't bother." Shen Zi'an shook off his hand with all his strength and walked away without looking back.

Gu Xuan only felt a burst of fire rushing to the top of his head, and shouted against the door, "Whatever you want!" Then he slammed the door shut.

It's just that the sunset has completely fallen, and scattered lights are lit up outside the house, but Shen Zi'an still hasn't come back. The cold wind outside the window whimpered non-stop, and Gu Xuan was upset when he heard it. He paced back and forth for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth, picked up the cloak that had just been sent, and went out.

"When I find him, I must teach him a good lesson." Thinking like this, Gu Xuan's steps sped up a few points. He searched all the places he frequented on weekdays, and finally saw the familiar figure by the Guiwan Lake.

"You feel sorry for me, you didn't run to any remote places." Gu Xuan squatted down, although he was still angry, he also felt that something had finally fallen to the ground.

"It's hard for me to find it." Gu Xuan said with a smile.

Shen Zi'an didn't say anything, his body shrugged and shrugged, as if he was sobbing. Gu Xuan grabbed his shoulder, only to see that this person's eyes were red, and the tears on his face were also covered with a thin layer of frost. Gu Xuan's heart hurt so much that he reached out to wipe his tears for him, but he gently avoided him.

"You're afraid of me?" Gu Xuan was a little anxious, "It's me who is dizzy, I shouldn't have beaten you." He stammered for a moment, then added, "It shouldn't be ...... You shouldn't be angry with a fox. ”

After a long time, seeing that Shen Zi'an still didn't move, Gu Xuan put the cloak on his body and persuaded softly, "It's cold, your body is weak, be careful of catching a cold." Although the movement was light, it caused him to tremble. Gu Xuan really had no choice, but he suddenly thought of the jade bead he was wearing around his neck, and he wanted to take it out to make him happy. "Look." Before he could take it out, he heard a strange noise behind him.

The two stood up suddenly, Gu Xuan quickly looked around, and said to Shen Zi'an, "Don't move here, I'll take a look." Seeing that Gu Xuan was gone, Shen Zi'an sat back on the ground. His mind was in turmoil. Although Gu Xuan has a perverse temperament, what he does today has long gone beyond the scope of perverseness.

That's tyranny.

Thinking like this, Shen Zi'an didn't notice the footsteps getting closer and closer, and when he finally noticed that something was wrong and wanted to turn back, he was pushed hard and fell into the lake all of a sudden. He didn't know how to water, and despite his desperate struggles, he slowly sank into the water.

"Help!" Shen Zi'an used all his strength to shout this sentence, but he was choked by water every time he opened his mouth. The lake water was very cold on a winter night, and the clothes on the child's body were so thick that he was weak. After a while, Shen Zi'an's consciousness began to drift, and his legs cramped unfortunately, so he could only watch himself fall.

He vaguely saw a man dressed in black standing on the shore, looking coldly. Short stature, this is all Shen Zi'an's memories of him.

But probably his life should not have ended, and just when he was about to give up, he touched a vine in the struggle. The instinct to survive made him hold on to the life-saving straw, gritting his teeth and exposing his face to the surface. The people on the shore were gone, and the little children were hoarse and crying with their heads up.

"Big brother save me."

When Gu Xuan arrived at the Shen Mansion, there were already a lot of people standing inside and out. Shen Zi'an's bedroom was brightly lit, and people were coming in and out, walking in a hurry. There was a cry from inside the house, and the sound of people softening under their feet. Gu Xuan didn't care about anything, so he squeezed in the crowd. As soon as he entered the door, he heard someone call him, "Your Highness." ”

Gu Xuan fixed his eyes and saw a young man about fifteen or sixteen years old standing in front of the door. At first glance, it looks familiar. Seeing Gu Xuan's puzzled face, the young man arched his hand and said, "Your Highness forgot?" The small one is Rongxing. ”

Gu Xuan remembered a little at this time, so he asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

"It was the villain who pulled Shen Gongzi up from the water."

"What the hell is going on?" Gu Xuan was so anxious that he was angry. It's just that before Rong Xing could reply, Shen Xiao rushed over, grabbed him and asked, "My son was fine when he entered the palace, why did he come out like this?" Didn't Your Highness promise me that he would protect him, but what do you say now? ”

Seeing Shen Xiao like this, Shen Ziheng hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and said with a smile to Gu Xuan, "My father is in a daze, and I beg His Highness not to worry about my father for the sake of Zi'an's accident." Hearing the words "something happened", Shen Xiao couldn't hold back any longer, and suddenly collapsed on the ground.

Gu Xuan thought about when he was not a personable person on weekdays, but now he knelt on the ground, crying heartbreakingly, and he couldn't help choking. He gently pushed Shen Xiao's hand away and walked to Shen Zi'an's bed. I saw that the child's face was pale, his eyes were closed, and Shen Zizheng and the maid on the side kept wiping their tears.

Gu Xuan half-knelt down, took out a small lock and put it on Shen Zi'an's neck, and said softly, "Zi'an, this is the longevity lock I just asked for for you, everyone said that it was spiritual." If you take it with you, you will be free of disease. ”

"It's my mistake, open your eyes."

Zi Wan sat at the head of the bed, heard this, stretched out her hand to brush away the broken hair in front of Shen Zi'an's forehead, and cried, "Young Master, Your Highness said that you will be fine, wake up quickly." "When anyone wanted to touch Shen Zi'an's forehead, it was cold. Aster hurriedly put her hand in the middle of his man, but she was completely gone.

"Little master is not good!"

As soon as these words came out, the doctor hurriedly stepped forward to check the situation, and everyone panicked again. In the midst of pushing and shoving, Gu Xuan couldn't help, so he was naturally squeezed out of the crowd. He looked at the situation in front of him, maybe the lights were a little dazzling, and he actually had a trace of trance.

Zi'an, I just hope that the Aconitum wildebeest will finally be saved.

Nothing more.
