Chapter 24: It's no use pretending to be pitiful in front of her



"It's nothing, I just don't want to give it to you."

Xun Niannian shrugged her shoulders and spoke in a faint voice.

I thought to myself: Have you forgotten what you just said to me?

Even after being scolded, I still wanted to eat what I brought.

How dare you?

Of course, Xun Nian Nian had no intention of explaining.

She was too lazy to explain.

At this time, Xun Sisi took a bite of the fragrant cake and immediately exclaimed with satisfaction: "It's delicious!"

After saying this, she looked at Xun Ruowei with deliberate pride.

"Sister Ruo Wei, you had a great time scolding my third sister just now, now just watch us eat delicious food!"

Xun Ruowei's expression became even uglier, and there was a hint of unnaturalness in it.

She stiffened her neck and said, "I didn't scold her, I just..."

She raised her eyes and looked at Xun Nian Nian.

There were still some tears in her eyes that had not been wiped away, making her look somewhat pitiful.

"Sister Nian Nian, I didn't mean to say that to you before. I just, I just really wanted you to come and see us."

"After all, you are the only one in our family who has not been arrested and imprisoned. You are the hope for all of us."

"Sister Nian Nian, you won't blame me, right?"

Xun Niannian had a blank expression on her face.

No response.

Heart.

If I really was looking for Nian Nian, and if I didn't know what you had done to Xun Ruowei, perhaps I wouldn't blame you.

But I am not really looking for Nian Nian now.

I also know the dirty things you've done.

So, don't act pitiful and act like a little white flower in front of me.

Useless!

Xun Niannian ignored Xun Ruowei and planned to continue talking with Zhao and others.

Xun Ruowei said again, "Sister Nian Nian, you just said that you would find a way to clear your uncle's name and rescue us. Do you have any ideas or plans?"

Xun Niannian glanced at her and said patiently, "Not yet."

"Not yet? You dare to say such big words when you don't have any plans or ideas? We will be executed in a few days!"

Xun Niannian frowned.

She knew it, and she was also very anxious.

But this matter is not that simple.

Now all the evidence is unfavorable to Xunjia.

The most important thing is that the dead villain is the governor of the three divisions.

Even though she knew that Minister Xun had not embezzled anything, that the Xun family was innocent, and where the dirty silver was, it was still not easy for her to overturn the case for the Xun family.

She had to go back and think carefully about how to do it.

Otherwise, not only might she fail to save the Xun family, but she might also lose her own life.

"Niannian, listen to your mother." Zhao suddenly spoke, her expression a little serious.

"Nian Nian, this matter is not that simple. The Xun family was imprisoned because of an imperial decree issued by the emperor himself."

"It is impossible to pardon us unless there is sufficient evidence."

"Girl, you are the Sixth Prince's Consort now. As long as the Sixth Prince doesn't let you go, you will be the Sixth Prince's Consort. Mother doesn't ask you to save us, as long as you can be well all the time."

As soon as Zhao finished speaking, Xun Ruowei said dissatisfiedly: "Aunt, what do you mean?"

"Are you trying to persuade Sister Nian Nian not to save us?"

"You just told Sister Sisi and me that Sister Nian Nian would rescue us."

"So you are trying to trick us?"

Zhao's expression stiffened for a moment. She raised her hand and touched Sisi's head, then glanced at Xun Wen'an who was sleeping soundly in the haystack in the corner.

There was a hint of sadness beneath his eyes.

"Ruo Wei, you were right before. Once you are locked up in this death row, how easy is it to get out?"

"Although your sister Nian Nian is now the Sixth Prince's Consort, the Sixth Prince is an iron-faced and impartial man. If there is no solid evidence, it will be useless no matter how much you beg him."

"I don't ask for anything else now, I just hope Nian Nian can be fine."

Zhao's words made Xun Niannian's nose sore again.

And everyone in the prison fell silent.

After a while, Xun Wenqing said, "Mother is right, Third Sister, if there is really no way to solve our problem, then forget it. We can't involve you. But after we are gone, you have to take good care of yourself."

Xun Wengui wiped his red eyes and said, "That's right, Third Sister, it's best to take care of yourself and wait for us..."

"Remember to burn more paper money for big brother during the memorial ceremony. You know that big brother loves money the most in his life."

Xun Sisi glanced at the half piece of cake in her hand.

Although she was only five years old, she seemed to understand what "beheading" meant.

I seemed to understand what my eldest and second brothers said.

She pursed her lips and said in a soft voice, "Woo woo, Third Sister, after Sisi is gone, you must remember to send Sisi some food. Sisi is most afraid of being hungry."

The words of the brothers and sisters made the atmosphere in the dungeon even colder.

Xun Ruowei glanced at everyone.

She raised her eyes and looked at Xun Niannian again.

Suddenly, with a thud, he knelt down on his knees towards Xun Niannian.

Xun Ruowei's action surprised everyone.

Xun Niannian was also slightly stunned.

She frowned slightly: "What are you doing?"
