After the divorce, I pursued the Ninth Prince 100 times.

Seeing the large dog that was much bigger than himself, the little child turned pale with fright, his hands and feet frozen in place, completely unable to move.

Almost immediately, the big dog opened its huge, foul-smelling mouth and began barking wildly at him.

The big dog lay on its two front legs, its whole body tense, ready to pounce and tear the little guy who had trespassed into its dog hole to shreds at any moment.

Xiao Xieheng's face was right in front of the dog's mouth, and he could clearly see the dog's sharp fangs and its huge tongue, which emitted a strong, fishy smell and was dripping saliva.

The little child was completely gripped by fear; he instinctively felt he would be devoured by the large dog at any moment. Worse still, the dog's barking had attracted two patrolling guards, who rushed towards them from two different directions.

Xiao Xie Heng was trembling uncontrollably; he knew he was going to die here today.

Whether he was bitten to death by this big dog or captured by that woman and executed as a bastard, he couldn't escape death either way.

Mother, Heng'er is useless; I can't avenge you...

Heng'er will be here to keep you company soon...

He closed his eyes in despair, his heart pounding like a drum, awaiting the arrival of misfortune.

The big dog's tongue was already licking his cheek. The rough surface of its tongue scraped across his face, and he felt a sharp pain, as if his face had been cut by a sharp knife. At the same time, the strong, fishy smell filled his nostrils...

He was about to suffocate; he was about to be eaten by this big dog.

He could already hear the guards' footsteps approaching; they would soon seize him, find a dagger in his clothes, and kill him.

He's going to die...

At this critical moment of life and death.

Suddenly, a large hand appeared behind him, grabbed the back of his neck by the collar, and pulled him out of the dog hole and onto the outside of the wall.

"Ouch!"

The moment Xiao Xieheng was pulled out, he saw the big dog suddenly leap up, its entire body swiftly passing through the dog hole, and lunging fiercely at him.

The big dog's mouth was wide open, almost biting his head.

Xiao Xieheng's eyes widened in extreme terror as he felt a surge of heat spreading between his thighs.

He actually wet his pants!

"Wah!" The little child could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

But before he could utter a word, a hand covered his mouth tightly, preventing him from making any sound.

He suddenly realized that he couldn't cry now; he still had a chance to live, and someone was coming to save him!

So he bit his lip hard, determined not to make a sound.

And that big dog?

He saw a stone flying towards the big dog from behind him at a rapid speed. It was so fast that he only saw the afterimage of the stone before the big dog was hit and its huge body fell back into the wall through the dog hole.

He had just heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground, and before he could come to his senses, he felt a pair of strong arms clamping him horizontally under the armpits, and the ground was rapidly retreating.

In the distance, he could hear the guards shouting and the whimpering of a large dog, but that had nothing to do with him. He had been quickly taken away from the scene, so he didn't have to be mauled to death by the dog.

It was King Li who saved him.

That year, he was five years old, and Li Wang was twelve.

Of course, at that time, Prince Li was not yet Prince Li. He was just a lowly eunuch who did dirty and tiring work all day long.

The young eunuch took him to a remote but safe place and put him down.

The first thing he did was to take the dagger out of his arms and ask him where he got the dagger. Did he want to assassinate the queen?

Little Xie Heng snatched back the dagger, pulled it out of the scabbard, and slashed the knife across his neck.

But the young eunuch raised his hand to stop him, and in just a moment the eunuch's hand was stained with blood.

He didn't care about the wound on his hand at all, and looked at him with a smile: "You are so young, why are you trying to commit suicide? If your mother knew, I don't know how sad she would be."

Tears streamed down Xie Heng's face. He sobbed uncontrollably for a while before managing to choke out, "My mother won't know..."

"She doesn't want me anymore, she's dead..."

“He was murdered…”

"I... I don't have the ability to avenge her..."

He wiped away his tears, but they fell even harder and could not be wiped away no matter how hard he tried.

His little face was dirty and he couldn't stop sobbing.

"My mother is timid... I, I want to go and accompany her..."

"If she goes over there and can't find me, she'll be scared!"

"Anyway, there's no point in me living... I might as well be dead, then I won't feel any pain..."

The little child's eyes were red and swollen, his face was pale, and he covered his left chest with his hand, feeling so painful that he was about to faint.

In fact, he actually passed out.

After experiencing extreme tension, fear, and despair...after all, he was still young, so he could no longer bear it and fainted.

The young eunuch hid him in a rockery, and then returned to his residence to bring back a quilt. The two of them spent the night in the rockery.

The next morning, young Xie Heng woke up, with the young eunuch standing by his side.

He thanked the young eunuch earnestly, saying that he would repay his kindness in his next life. After thanking him, he stood up and was about to leave.

But the young eunuch stopped him, insisting that he repay the debt of gratitude in this lifetime, otherwise he would owe him a debt.

If you owe someone a debt of gratitude, the King of Hell won't take you in. If you die, not only will you never see your mother again, but you'll also become a wandering ghost, constantly bullied by powerful demons...

Little Xie Heng was frightened by him.

The young eunuch said, "Live well and I will help you get revenge, how about that?"

The six-year-old child looked the eunuch up and down and asked, "What is your position in the palace? What are your responsibilities?"

Junior eunuch: "No official position. His main responsibility is to empty the chamber pot for the chief eunuch, and also to handle various miscellaneous tasks assigned by the head eunuch."

Xiao Xie Heng:!!!

In short, the two reached an agreement.

It is unknown what methods the young eunuch used, but six months later, the wicked woman confessed to framing his mother and sending her to the cold palace, and later killing her.

The emperor was furious and directly bestowed a white silk.

The evil woman died, and he became the legitimate Sixth Prince. Perhaps because of his guilt towards his mother, his father was particularly fond of him.

He also fulfilled his promise to the young eunuch and would repay the favor in this life.

Whatever the young eunuch wanted, he would give it to him if he could. If he couldn't give it to him, he would ask his father for it, which helped him a lot.

At one point, when he felt that he had almost repaid his gratitude, he wanted to follow his mother again.

Without his mother, no matter how well he ate, how well he dressed, or how high his status was, it meant nothing to him and he was like a walking corpse every day.

At that time, the young eunuch realized it and told him a story from the past.

That story involves a little girl.

Although the young eunuch didn't explicitly say who the little girl was, he knew it was Shen Nanxing as a child...
