Chapter 23 Was it the Sixth Prince who did it?



In the dungeons on both sides, people who were originally standing or sitting now all stood up and came to the cell doors.

He looked at Xun Nian Nian standing outside the prison door with excitement and surprise.

Xun Niannian had already adapted to the environment in the dungeon. She scanned everyone's faces one by one and was able to recognize their identities!

Xun Niannian was completely relieved.

What she had originally worried about, that she might not be able to recognize people, did not happen.

It seems that she has now integrated well into the original owner's body.

Although there are no memories of the past in my mind.

However, whenever she sees someone familiar to her, she seems to recognize them!

"Mother, eldest brother, second brother, fourth sister..."

Xun Niannian shouted to everyone.

"Niannian, why are you here?" Zhao looked at Xun Niannian with surprise and distress, "How have you been recently?"

"I'm fine, don't worry, Mom."

It was her first time dealing with them, and Xun Niannian felt more or less uncomfortable.

Zhao waved to Xun Niannian, "Come closer, let me take a good look at you."

After a slight pause, Xun Niannian walked closer to Zhao as instructed.

Zhao reached out through the prison bars, grabbed Xun Niannian's hand, and looked her up and down.

His eyes finally fell on her forehead.

"Your forehead...are you hurt?"

"I bumped into it accidentally, it's just a minor injury, no big deal." Xun Niannian said nonchalantly.

A worried voice came from the cell opposite, "Third sister, tell me, was it the Sixth Prince who did it? Was he the one who caused the wound on your forehead?"

Xun Nian Nian: “…”

Xun Wengui's question made everyone quiet down.

Everyone's eyes fell on Xun Niannian.

Xun Nian Nian was also stunned by Xun Wengui's question. She didn't reply for a while, and her expression was a little unnatural...

Zhao was surprised when she saw Xun Niannian's reaction.

"Niannian, you, your forehead can't really be that of the Sixth Prince..."

Xun Niannian finally came to her senses and quickly denied: "It's not him, the prince is very good to me, how could he hit me?"

"hehe."

"It was really just an accident."

However, Xun Niannian's words did not seem to completely convince Zhao and others.

The main thing is that there seemed to be a hint of guilt in her tone.

Also, how could a healthy person hit his head for no reason?

Everyone is not a fool.

I guessed that this matter must not be that simple.

"Niannian, my poor child, tell me the truth. Was it because of our matter that you went to ask the Sixth Prince for help, and he..."

Xun Niannian interrupted Zhao's imaginary words, "Mother, it really wasn't him. The prince was very good to me, very gentle and considerate!"

[Ahem, I wasn’t gentle or considerate, but I really didn’t hit him. 】

[So far, the villain has no tendency to commit domestic violence. ]

Xun Niannian continued: "Mother, think about it, if the prince was not nice to me, I wouldn't be able to come here to see you now, right?"

"I was able to come here because the prince brought me here personally."

Xun Nian Nian's words finally made everyone believe it about 50% to 60%.

Indeed, if the Sixth Prince really treated her badly, why would he personally bring her to visit him in prison?

"King He is indeed a gentle and virtuous man. Although he is too ruthless in some matters, he would not hit anyone." Xun Wenqing analyzed thoughtfully.

Xun Wenqing's analysis made Zhao and others believe it a little more.

However, Xun Ruowei interjected calmly, "Who knows? Being gentle, kind, and virtuous might just be an act!"

"Sister Nian Nian, the wound on your forehead looks quite serious. If it really wasn't caused by the Sixth Prince, could it be that you bumped into it on purpose?"

I have to say that Xun Ruowei is indeed a smart person.

I actually guessed 70% to 80%!

Xun Niannian couldn't help but applaud her in her heart.

I thought to myself: If you had used your brain in the right way, you wouldn't have ended up in such a tragic way!

Yes, although Xun Ruowei escaped beheading this time and lived for most of the book, her final ending was not very good.

It can be said that it is quite tragic.

The kind where not even a complete corpse was left behind...

Of course, this is a later story.

"Niannian, is what your sister Ruowei said true? Did you really get this injury by yourself?"

Zhao raised her hand and wanted to touch the wound on Xun Niannian's forehead, but was afraid of hurting her, so she had to drop her hand again.

His eyes were full of heartache.

"Of course it's not true, mom, please stop making assumptions. It was just an accident."

Xun Niannian changed the subject directly, "Mom, you have suffered in prison these days. I brought some food, you can try it."

Xun Niannian waved to Dong Xing behind her, signaling her to open the lunch box.

As soon as the food box was opened, the tempting aroma immediately spread throughout the cell.

Even the jailer not far away and Su Wu at the stairs couldn't help but sniffle.

Not to mention the prisoners like Xunjia who have been locked up in jail for several days.

Although the lives of these people who are looking for a family were not as good as those of the royal family, they still lived a life of luxury.

After being thrown into prison, not to mention other things, his food alone was in a state of decline.

Now, when they smelled this delicious aroma, everyone's eyes were shining like hungry wolves.

Xun Niannian asked Dong Xing to distribute a cake to each person one by one.

"Mother, I came in a hurry this time and didn't have time to make it for you. I could only take some leftover cakes from the palace kitchen. There aren't too many, so don't be disgusted. I'll make more myself tomorrow and have someone send it to you."

Zhao choked up.

"Girl, it's enough that you can come to see us, why are you doing anything else!"

"It's nothing, mother, don't worry, I know that father must have been wronged, I will definitely find a way to clear his name, and you will all be fine."

Xun Niannian's words made everyone in the cell feel more or less at ease.

"Third sister, thank you for your hard work." Xun Wenqing said with concern.

Xun Niannian lowered her eyes uncomfortably, "We are one family and we should not have different opinions."

When she raised her eyes, Xun Niannian caught a glimpse of Dong Xing who was about to hand some pastries to Xun Ruowei.

She suddenly spoke up coldly to stop him, "Forget about Xun Ruowei. You don't have to give it to her. Give the extra to Sisi."

"Yes, miss." Dong Xing nodded without asking anything, walked past Xun Ruowei, and handed the pastries directly to Xun Sisi.

Xun Ruowei's expression changed immediately.

"Sister Nian Nian, what do you mean?"
