The chief clerk took her into the prison, and saw Xie Mingan inside.

He wore black clothes that were convenient for interrogation.

You can't even tell if it's for blood.

Before Shen Ningning came, Lifen and her family had already been tortured.

The little guy stood still in front of Xie Mingan, raised his watery eyes, waiting for his report.

Xie Ming settled down and took out a few charges from his entourage.

"They have all pleaded guilty."

"Mrs. Ma planned to throw a pan of oil at you because she was afraid of your revenge."

"So I worked with my family to smuggle things out of Xiangyun Village, thinking I could escape."

Shen Ningning turned her eyes and looked at Lifen and her family in the cell, who were covered in injuries and unable to move.

Her voice was waxy and she stared at Lifen.

"What a coincidence. I thought you could be my cousin's wife."

"It seems that you don't have this fate."

Fortunately, they found out before they got married.

If he found out after they got married, Shen Ningning would definitely find a way to drive this family away.

Lifen threw herself in front of the fence and begged: "Princess, I know I was wrong."

"I don't want to embarrass you at all. It was all instigated by my mother."

"She was also the one who knocked over the oil pan and wanted to harm you. From the beginning to the end, I never laid a hand on it!"

Aunt Ma was lying on her back behind her, unable to stand up.

But those eyes, as if they were tempered with poison, stared at Lifen's back fiercely.

"You bastard, if something goes wrong, you just pass the responsibility to me. You are unfilial! It's thundering!"

Shen Ningning's big, watery eyes were dark and calm.

"I'm not stupid, I know you just want to bully me."

"I'm probably used to being selfish, so I think that people outside will give you everything."

"What if I am not the princess? Aren't you afraid of offending me?"

When Shen Ningning said this, she turned around.

She said to Xie Mingan: "Xie Shaoqing has business to do, so there is no need to call me."

Xie Mingan was startled.

Lord Shaoqing?

Did this child learn it after hearing other people shout it?

He calmed down and said, "The villagers' belongings taken away by the Ma family are worth a total of six thousand eight hundred taels."

"Except for the firewood, rice noodles and some quilts they have resold, these cannot be recovered."

"I can still get the rest of the jewelry, clothes, fabrics, etc. back."

"When the case is finalized, I will send someone to return the things to Xiangyun Village."

Shen Ningning nodded: "It's up to you, sir."

With that said, the little guy took steps to leave.

Lifen begged for mercy, but she seemed not to hear her.

Xie Mingan saw her being so straightforward.

I couldn't help but ask again: "You have no other requirements for them?"

He was afraid that Shen Ningning wouldn't understand what he meant.

Xie Mingan stood with his hands behind his back in the dim light of the cell, like a ruthless god who tore apart a corner of darkness and came out.

"As long as the punishment is within a reasonable range, you can vent your anger as you like."

Shen Ningning shook her head decisively.

He looked at Xie Mingan with strange eyes.

"No need, hasn't Lifen already identified her mother?"

"What punishment is more cruel than fighting within a family? Do it according to the rules."

With that said, the little guy turned around and walked away without looking back.

On the contrary, Xie Mingan tightened his fingertips in silence.

The surrounding jailers and the guards of Dali Temple all felt that Princess Funing was really kind.

On the contrary, Xie Mingan suddenly said: "I understand what she means. Then, let's torture this family again."

Lifen sat on her knees in the cell, listening to the words, with a look of fear on her face.

She watched Xie Mingan approach slowly, as if watching the King of Hell come to claim his life.

"No, no... Sir, please spare me!"

Xie Mingan looked at her and said expressionlessly: "I'll give you a chance not to suffer."

"As a family, identify each other and make it clear who took the lead in stealing other people's things and escaping this time, who came up with the idea, and who was responsible for carrying them into the car."

"Those who can explain clearly will be exempted from a caning punishment. Those who can't will be whipped every day."

He finished speaking.

Lifen and Aunt Ma started to criticize each other.

Lifen even slapped Aunt Ma in anger.

He scolded her for favoring boys over girls and favoring her younger brother.

Ma Laoer accused Lifen and Aunt Ma of conspiring to steal.

Aunt Ma was so angry that she bit Ma Er's arm, causing him to scream in pain.

By the way, he punched Aunt Ma in the body.

The family huddled together.

Xie Mingan watched through the cell fence without any fluctuation.

After a while, he turned back and asked the bookkeeper behind him.

"Does this count as what she just said, family members fighting among themselves and biting each other?"

Main bookkeeper:……

Princess Funing doesn’t seem to mean this.

That night.

Xie Mingan actually dreamed of his mother's deep thoughts.

This was the first time he dreamed of his mother since her death.

In the dream, his mother seemed a little angry, staring at him but not talking to him.

She was holding a child in her arms, and her face was blocked by a halo, making her face invisible.

Xie Ming'an was anxious and excited: "Is it my little sister? Let me hug you."

However, he just reached out.

The little girl in her mother's arms said angrily in a milky voice, "I don't want you to hold her!"

"I hate my second brother, and I hate Xie Ming'an the most!"

"I hate Xie Ming'an..."

Xie Mingan murmured uneasily in his dream: "Little sister, don't hate the second brother..."

suddenly.

He woke up from his dream. He sat up and took a breath before coming back to his senses.

Why did the little girl's voice in the dream actually sound like Shen Ningning's angry words that day?

Shen Ningning attended a day of classes at the Chinese Academy of Chinese Studies.

In recent days, Xu Jingxi has been recuperating at home.

The little guy decided to visit him the next day.

After saying goodbye to her classmates, she dragged the wooden cart made by her brother Xie Mingxu all the way to the entrance of the Chinese Academy of Chinese Studies.

But she saw a figure that made her unhappy.

Xie Mingan was wearing a blue cloak, leaning on the carriage, with a cold white face as handsome as jade.

He seemed to be waiting for someone.

Shen Ningning withdrew her gaze and walked in the opposite direction.

Late spring and late spring followed her, and when they saw Xie Mingan following her, they looked at each other.

Finally, Wan Chun bravely stopped Xie Mingan.

"Second Young Master, our princess won't be returning to Xie's Mansion for a while. The servants are going to take the princess back to Langshan. You don't have to follow her."

Xie Mingan frowned: "You even stop me?"

Late Spring curled her lips secretly.

It was you who stopped me.

Late spring explained calmly: "The princess has studied all day today and is already tired."

"Second Young Master, please come back too."

Xie Mingan looked at Shen Ningning's back as she was about to board the carriage.

He knew that she didn't want to have contact with him.

Xie Mingan's sharp cold eyes were filled with broken light.

He raised his voice to Shen Ningning's back: "Don't you want to know why I am so sure that you are not my sister?"

"I went to check on the maid who stole the child! There is something wrong with it."

Shen Ningning was about to get into the carriage when she suddenly paused.

She looked at Xie Ming'an blankly.
