The Prince Can Always Hear The Secret Servant Chanting The Qingxin Mantra Before Going To Bed

nk and beat her brother with a wooden stick.
At that time, Xu Run would get beaten up so hard that he would end up covered in blood, as he laid on the ground without being able to move, while her mother held her in her arms, begging for mercy.
Her father would then scold her mother, scold her for being old and incompetent in raising her son.
Then, he would begin to punch and kick her mother without mercy.

Xu Li cried out, but when she looked up, the scene around her turned into a rainy night.
At that time, her stepmother dragged her to a sedan chair, when she was only 12 years old.
Her father wanted her to marry the old butcher, who also happened to kill his previous wife in the City.
At that time, Xu Run came to stop their stepmother, but he was slapped and beaten on the ground by her father.

Xu Li woke up from the dream in a cold sweat.

Xu Run was on guard, holding his head with one hand, and sleeping lightly.
When he heard a sound, he woke up immediately.

“Ge.” Xu Li got up, with her voice trembling.

Xu Run hurriedly sat beside her.
He was used to wearing linen clothes all the time, but since he had to wear the Prince’s royal clothes, and because he wasn’t used to it, he stumbled.

“Did you have a nightmare again?” Xu Run stroked her hair tenderly.

Xu Li nodded her head and took several deep breaths.

“Don’t be afraid.” Xu Run soothed her.
“It’s all in the past.
I swear, you’ll never see those two again.”

Xu Run got up and walked to the table to pick up the porcelain pot to pour some water for Xu Li.

His hands, who once held a sword to stab his biological father on the chest without hesitation, were now carefully carrying a bowl to gently and meticulously give his younger sister some water to drink.

After Xu Li drank enough and eased the shock of the nightmares, she asked Xu Run in a low voice: “Ge, how can we live in such a good Courtyard, ah? When I look at the medicines I take every day, I can see that they’re expensive.
We….
didn’t we not have any money?”

Xu Li didn’t know about Xu Run taking away Qi Ci’s mother’s belongings.
She was weak and unconscious on their way to the Capital, and once she woke up, she was already living in a different Courtyard.

Xu Run paused and stroked his sister’s hair: “Qi Ci lent us some money.”

Xu Li pulled Xu Run’s sleeve and said: “Ge, I miss Qi Ci Gege so much.
Let’s ask him to come live together with us in the Capital.
He must have never lived in a place as pretty as this.”

Xu Run felt like something was stuck in his throat for a while before he could reply: “Yes, I’ve already sent someone to the Northern border to look for him.”

Xu Li felt relieved once she heard that, so she picked up the quilt and went back to dreaming.
Xu Run looked at the bright moon outside the window, with his hands clenched into fists, exerting so much force that his nails scratched his palms, drawing out some blood.
