The reborn elder sister has gone crazy with killing, and there is a crying monster behind her

Shen Qingxu's heart was beating fast under the quilt. She patted her chest and took a deep breath.

Fortunately, I was not discovered, otherwise I would have been beaten.

"The princess?"

When Shen Qingxu heard this, she turned around and saw Qingfang standing beside the bed. She didn't see her when she ran in just now.

Shen Qingxu looked flustered, her whole body tense as she leaned against the corner of the bed. She looked a little embarrassed and didn't dare to move.

"Why aren't you asleep yet? Did you run away?"

It’s over, it’s over…

Shen Qingxu listened to Qingfang's mumbling and soon fell asleep.

Qingfang also covered Shen Qingxu with a quilt out of disappointment and planned to go to the palace to apologize tomorrow morning.

The next day, inside Fengyi Palace.

Shen Qingxu stood in the hall feeling a little nervous.

"Qingxu?" Shen Qiuchi looked kind and smiled at Shen Qingxu, but this smile made Shen Qingxu shudder. Was she discovered? It's over! Her sister told her not to go out alone at night.

"Tell me, where did you go last night?" Shen Qiuchi looked nonchalant and continued to review the memorials on the table.

Shen Qingxu sat obediently beside him, looking like a child who had done something wrong.

Well, it was also a wrong thing to do.

"I just can't sleep, so I want to go for a walk..." Shen Qingxu chuckled twice, then looked at her straight with a pair of round watery eyes.

Shen Qiuchi couldn't stand Shen Qingxu's pitiful look, so he sighed, stood up silently and walked to her side.

"Remember what I told you?"

Shen Qingxu thought for a while, her deer eyes were clear and transparent, as if they were filled with stars, and she nodded.

"How many times?"

"The second time..." Shen Qingxu stretched out two fingers, thought for a moment and stretched out another one, "The third time, sister!"

She looked at Shen Qiuchi's expressionless face, a little uncertain, blinked her eyes, and said in a soft voice: "I'm sorry, sister, I don't remember how many times."

Shen Qiuchi pursed his lips, looking helpless.

She stretched out her hand and pinched Shen Qingxu's face, saying, "There are still some forces in the palace that are hostile to me and have not been eliminated. It is not impossible that some despicable villains will do something to hurt you behind your back. I have to take care of your safety, so I sent Qingfang to be your attendant."

"She is the daughter of General Lu's mansion. She is from a military family and her martial arts skills are not inferior to those of men. I felt relieved that she followed you, but you took advantage of her absence and sneaked out of the mansion without her on your back. Fortunately, we went to the Imperial Garden. If you were outside and encountered danger, what would you let me do?"

"Sister, I was wrong, please punish me."

"I won't punish you, I don't want to, but I will punish Qingfang." Shen Qiuchi said the last sentence nonchalantly, his expression cold and lazy.

Shen Qiuchi stood up and spoke coldly, as chilling as ice: "Qingfang, you failed to protect your master and failed to take good care of the princess. You will be punished with twenty military sticks."

Qingfang straightened her back and knelt down, her face pale and her voice trembling: "I know I am wrong. I am willing to be punished. I beg the Queen to forgive me."

Shen Qingxu ran towards Shen Qiuchi anxiously and hurriedly grabbed Shen Qiuchi's hand.

She didn't expect her sister to punish Qingfang. She knew her sister would be reluctant to punish her and was certain that her sister would be soft-hearted when facing her, so she sneaked out to play many times. But she forgot that Shen Qiuchi was a cruel person. Except for her and the prince, he was always cold and heartless to other people.

So if Shen Qiuchi didn't punish her, he would punish the people around her. If she continued to disobey, Qingfang would be punished for her.

Shen Qingxu felt as if there was a small drum in his heart, beating "dong dong" all the time.

"I'm sorry, sister. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have run around. Please don't punish Sister Qingfang, okay? I ran away without telling her. I won't do it again next time." Shen Qingxu was so anxious that she burst into tears. She didn't dare to do it again. She was wrong. Shen Qingxu held Shen Qiuchi's hand tightly. It wasn't twenty lashes of the cane, but twenty military sticks. Even the men in the army could not bear it, let alone Qingfang.

If Xu Xingyi made a mistake and was punished with ten military sticks, he would not go to bed for ten days, let alone twenty military sticks.

Shen Qiuchi didn't punish Qingfang after all, because Shen Qingxu was begging for mercy with tears in her eyes. Alas! She really couldn't bear to be cruel to this sister. She reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of Shen Qingxu's eyes and stroked her head.

"It's good that you admit your mistake this time, so I won't punish Qingfang."

Shen Qingxu hugged her and nodded, "Thank you, sister. I will be good and won't run around in the future."

Seeing Shen Qingxu crying like a cat and still twitching, Shen Qiuchi looked at Qingfang. Qingfang nodded and then walked out.

After a while, Qingfang brought the palace maids to bring a clean basin and a towel, and prepared some cakes that Shen Qingxu liked, and then coaxed Shen Qingxu.

After that, Shen Qingxu really stayed in the Princess's Mansion and studied with the teacher. She came to the palace from time to time to talk to Shen Qiuchi. Gradually, she realized that the atmosphere in the palace had changed. Her sister had spent a lot of effort to protect her, so how could she cause more trouble?

She was originally a person from outside the book world, but her mindset was too immature. Since she wanted to curry favor with someone, the first thing she had to do was not to hold him back. Moreover, if Qingfang, who always considered her, was beaten because of her willfulness, she would be really sad.
