Shen Yinbei under the candlelight, the lines on his face were tense, his gray eyes were slightly squinted, glowing with an unknown light, and the scar left on his left face was particularly glaring.

Shen Chengqi sat opposite him with an indifferent expression, without saying a word, as if what he had experienced before had nothing to do with him.

Shen Yinbei paced around, turned several times in front of his eyes, and finally opened his mouth: "Brother, don't you even have an explanation?"

"Explain? What do you want me to explain?" Shen Chengqi frowned, looked up at him and said, "Explain why you scratched your face?"

Shen Yinbei took a deep breath, calmed down the emotions that were about to erupt, and said in a deep voice: "I was wrong before, I spoke too hard to you, and you were upset and touched me. I will also treat this scar. I don't want to pursue it anymore."

Shen Chengqi sneered, "Then should I kneel down and say 'Thank you Lord Ron' now?"

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense!" Shen Yinbei suddenly grabbed his arm, held his shoulders with both hands, and asked with burning eyes: "You just need to tell me a word, you... who are you?"

Shen Chengqi's complexion changed, and then he returned to that half-smile look, pushed his hand away and said, "Who else am I? Shen Yinbei, I think you've gone mad, right? It looks too ugly."

"No." Shen Yinbei closed his eyes and sank for a while, but he didn't relax the hand holding his shoulder, "It's impossible for others to know what I told Uncle Six. Who are you? What are you with Uncle Six? relation?"

Seeing his eager and obsessed look, Shen Chengqi overturned the five-flavored bottle in his heart, and his gaze became a little more complicated.

"Uncle Six is ​​already a pile of bones, and I'm just a substitute in your eyes. What's the point of asking this?"

Shen Yinbei's body froze immediately, and his face turned pale.

His head was in chaos now, although he couldn't let go of Sixth Uncle in his heart, but seeing Shen Yinque's expression after knowing the truth, he still felt distressed.

At this point, even he himself can't tell whether he still loves sixth uncle stubbornly, or the big brother who doesn't care about anything.

Is he...just a stand-in?

Shen Yinbei asked himself in his heart, but he swallowed hard before he blurted out a definite answer. His heart was already in a mess, as if he had been stabbed severely by Shen Yinque, leaving deep marks. Kill him easily.

He stood there with his head down for a long time, just when Shen Chengqi was getting impatient, he squatted down and hugged Shen Chengqi's leg.

"Brother... let's not mention this, shall we? You and Uncle Six... are different."

Shen Chengqi smiled inwardly, what's the difference?After changing the shell with him, he is no longer a human being inside and out.

After a long sigh, he opened Shen Yinbei's fingers bit by bit, "What's the point of you saying this now? I was stupid before, and I believed your nonsense. We are brothers and shouldn't be involved in the first place. , what's more, you don't love me, so...just beg me, I can forget about the past, please don't pester me, okay?"

Shen Yinbei, who hadn't had time to sort out his feelings, was flustered at the first reaction when he heard these words. He didn't have time to think too much, he only knew that this person who had finally caught him was going to leave him again this time.

"I don't allow it!" He hugged Shen Chengqi's waist tightly and buried his head in his neck, "Brother, you are the only person I can trust in this palace, even if you hate me, please don't leave Me, don't go."

At this moment, like a sensitive and suspicious child, the strong Shen Yinbei tightly hugged his only toy, making the last resistance.

Shen Chengqi raised the corners of his mouth faintly, like when he first met this little guy ten years ago, he raised his hand and stroked his head hesitantly, his mind was going back and forth in his stomach, and finally made up his mind.

"Xiaobei, I don't need to leave, but you have to promise to let me go free. I am a human being, not a pet you keep in captivity. If you want to start over, start with a fair status like a man."

After knowing the real cause of his death in the previous life, Shen Chengqi had no plans to run away. Now, in order to avenge his shame, he can only start with Shen Yinbei, the only bargaining chip.

After all, Shen Yinbei is not a fool, he understands that he is going around because he just wants to get out of his control, and after going through the night of chasing and fleeing, he finally understands that compared to losing him completely, letting him go free is not so painful.

Holding Shen Chengqi's hand, lowering his head and kissing his ten fingers, Shen Yinbei finally nodded, "Brother, I will never use those despicable methods against you again, and I will never imprison you again, but you You have to tell me things that only Uncle Six and I know, how do you know?"

Shen Chengqi looked at his intimate movements with complicated eyes, and didn't know what it was like in his heart. In fact, he himself couldn't tell whether he loved or hated this little nephew.

Simply, from the moment he decided to come back for revenge, he expected that Shen Yinbei would ask this question, and he already had a countermeasure in mind.

"Do you remember the day when I came back from the dead, which happened to be the day when Uncle Six was going to be buried?" Shen Chengqi spoke slowly after heaving a sigh of relief.

Shen Yinbei was stunned for a moment, then smiled wryly, "Oh, I'm afraid I'll never forget that day in my life, why did you mention this all of a sudden?"

Shen Chengqi raised the corner of his mouth, patted his hand and continued: "Maybe you don't believe what I said later, because it's so unbelievable that even I myself can't be sure."

After hearing this, Shen Yinbei frowned completely, but still listened patiently.

"You know that I lost a lot of memory after I came back from the dead, but I never told anyone. In fact, after losing some memories in my mind, I was inexplicably filled with a lot of memories that didn't belong to me."

"It doesn't belong to you...does it?"

"You guessed right."

Shen Chengqi continued to write down according to his previous plan, "I have some sporadic memories in my mind, which are incomplete and unfamiliar. I didn't care about it at first, but later I found that I often did some things inexplicably, but I was sober. After that, I couldn't remember why I did this at all, as if I had become another person."

Shen Yinbei was stunned, then sneered and laughed, "You mean that this other person is Uncle Six? Oh, brother, is it so easy to deceive me when you are a three-year-old child? Even if what you said is true, Why do you think it's Uncle Six?"

"Because of those six paintings in your secret room."

Shen Chengqi stared at him indifferently, without any panic of lying, "Why should I lie to you now, I was locked in Yingyuan since I was a child, and I have never seen anyone outside the palace. Even if Sixth Uncle stood in front of me, I wouldn’t recognize the painting.”

Shen Yinbei hesitated, he squinted his eyes and sat on the side without speaking, with a somewhat complicated expression on his face.

In fact, he didn't believe in such strange things, but Shen Yinque's words were not unreasonable. Anyone who was supposed to go into the coffin came out intact, let alone Shen Yinque died. After being resurrected, her temperament changed drastically, and even the birthmark and lameness brought out of her mother's womb were cured without treatment.

With all these bizarre events in front of him, Shen Yinbei couldn't tell for a while.

Perhaps Shen Yinque and Sixth Uncle died on the same day, is it simply doomed?

Shen Yinbei sighed, raised his hand to touch Shen Chengqi's face and said, "Uncle Six...can you feel it often?"

"I don't know." Shen Chengqi expected that he would ask these details, so he shook his head calmly and said, "I only dreamed about him once. At that time, I didn't know who he was, but I always remembered him." Said that he died wronged, asked me to help him, etc. At that time, I thought it was because I stayed in the coffin for too long and bumped into evil, so I didn't care, who would have thought..."

These words were said calmly, but in Shen Yinbei's heart, a turbulent sea was set off.

"You mean Uncle Six didn't die of illness?"

Shen Chengqi saw the fish took the bait, and instead of answering, asked, "You've been staring at him all your life, don't you know what's wrong with him better than me?"

Shen Yinbei's eyes narrowed dangerously, although he half believed Shen Chengqi's words, but after he reminded him, the death of sixth uncle was really strange.

Just over [-] years old, without any illness or disaster, but suddenly died for no reason. Could it be that someone really wanted to harm him?

Although he was shocked in his heart, Shen Yinbei didn't ask any more questions. He grabbed Shen Chengqi's hand and took it to the bedside and said, "Brother, let's talk about this matter later. We've been tossing around all night now, and it's almost dawn, you hurry up." Take some rest."

Seeing the anxious look on his face, Shen Chengqi knew in his heart that this guy probably wanted to rush to find out the cause of his death, it seemed that he really believed the words just now.

"Since it's late, don't leave. I'll give you some medicine for the wound on your face."

Shen Chengqi turned around and opened the cupboard, took out a small medicine box, and began to fiddle with the golden sore medicine inside.On the contrary, Shen Yinbei was completely stupid. He thought that after so long, his eldest brother hated him to the bone, and even if he didn't hate him, at least he didn't want to see him anymore. Now he would ask to keep him, and he was going to give him medicine himself! ?

Shen Chengqi pretended not to see his surprised and delighted eyes, took the ointment and applied it to his face bit by bit, Shen Yinbei took the opportunity to wrap his arms around his waist, clamped his knees between his legs, and firmly held him Locked in his arms, he finally had a smile on his face.

From afar, the two look like a poor couple who have been in love for a long time, embracing each other to keep warm.

But only Shen Chengqi knew in his heart that if he wanted to gain something, he had to know how to lose it. Give Shen Yinbei some sweetness now, so that he can hold him firmly in the palm of his hand in the future.

***

Ever since Shen Yinbei knew that Shen Chengqi might have been murdered that night, the two never talked about this topic again. Even the word "sixth uncle" has become a taboo, and Shen Yinbei never mentioned it like walking on thin ice. , Shen Chengqi also pretended to be stupid, as if nothing happened.

The two reunited for the first time, even more intimate than before.Shen Yinbei also seemed to have a conscience, felt that he owed Shen Chengqi too much, not only let him be free, but also redoubled his efforts to try his best to please him, his temper was even more gentle and outrageous, almost to the point of obeying.

Although Shen Chengqi knows that the sleeping tiger is also a tiger, and the domineering in his bones cannot be changed, he still enjoys his care with peace of mind, and even often gives him some sweets, so that the tiger treats him like a giant cat from time to time Tail flicking, life is rare and comfortable.

The days have entered March in a blink of an eye, the weather is gradually warming up, and the peach blossoms in the palace are full of branches.

Shen Yinbei was wearing an unlined garment, and was sitting alone in the study dealing with the business at hand. At this moment, a few peach petals floated in from the window. The light pink color made him stop the brush in his hand.

I remember the last time I saw my elder brother, the peach blossoms in the yard were still in bud, but now they are all in full bloom, and I don't have time to go to Yingyuan, so I can't help but miss it.

I have always taken the initiative on my own, and with my eldest brother's temper, I am afraid that it is an extravagant hope for him to come to find me once.

That's all, let's finish these things quickly and take a look at him while it's dark.

Shen Yinbei sighed helplessly, and greeted the door: "Xiao Dezi, come in."

The door was pushed open, and a little eunuch walked in with his head down, holding a food box in his hand, "What are your orders, Your Highness?"

Shen Yinbei looked at him suspiciously, "Why are you looking down, and what's the matter with the food box in your hand?"

"Your Highness didn't eat at night. The servant was afraid that you would be hungry, so he simply brought you in together."

While talking, the little eunuch never raised his head. Shen Yinbei was puzzled, but he didn't think too much about it. He waved to him and said, "Okay, put the food box aside first, come and help me grind the ink."

"Yes."

The little eunuch walked up to him, stood aside and stopped moving. Shen Yinbei raised his head impatiently, just about to ask him why he didn't do anything, but the moment he saw his face, he choked completely. up.

"Brother? Why are you?"
