Late at night, the candlelight in the Prince's Mansion flickered.
The prince and the eldest princess sat opposite each other at the table, the atmosphere was solemn.
"It's so late, the prince is looking for me, but what's the matter?"
The prince's eyes were gloomy as he stared at Xia Yanyan.
"My aunt is so reckless! She dares to kill people in the palace! Jiangnan Jinsheng's favor is long. If she is discovered and my father blames me, how will you and I bear the responsibility?!"
Xia Yanyan curled her lips and knocked the crimson pill on the table, not paying attention.
"What are you afraid of? Even if I commit a heinous crime, my brother wouldn't dare to deal with me! I'm just a Jiangnan Jin."
Don’t dare to deal with it?
The prince's face was condensed, and he felt suspicious when he saw Xia Yanyan's arrogant look.
Even if Xia Yanyan is the same as her father and mother, she is still too arrogant!
Xia Yanyan snorted coldly and continued, "That Wen Ranran, on the other hand, has ruined my good deeds time and time again. It will definitely be a disaster to keep him!"
The prince frowned.
"Wen Ranran is now being protected by the Prime Minister and Seventh Brother. It's hard to make a move. If something happens rashly, I'm afraid my father will suspect me."
Xia Yanyan didn't care and was a little dissatisfied with the prince's indecisiveness.
"Now, she has come to our door by herself. This opportunity cannot be missed. It is better to take advantage of this matter to deal with Wen Ranran to avoid future troubles!"
The prince's eyelashes drooped slightly.
Wen Ranran must be eliminated sooner or later. There are too many secrets in this girl.
That's all, if you get rid of this thorn in your side as soon as possible, you can feel more at ease.
"I will send someone to take care of this matter. Auntie, it's better to go back and rest early!"
After Xia Yanyan received the answer, she left with satisfaction.
…
In the dark cell, torches were lit.
Wen Ranran clutched her growling stomach, stubbornly lying on the bed and hypnotizing herself, mumbling something.
"Sleep, sleep, you won't be hungry when you sleep... Wen Ranran, you have to persist, your life is important!"
The four dishes and one soup on the table were already cold, but they seemed to still smell faintly of the food.
Wen Ranran seemed not to notice, still fighting against hunger.
"Girl...are you stupid? Why don't you eat when you have food?"
The eldest brother who was locked up next door looked at the big fish and meat on Wen Ranran's side, and then looked at the rotten rice in his own bowl, and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Wen Ranran was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the speaker.
The man's hair was disheveled, and his prison uniform looked a bit bulky on his body.
He has a sallow face and thin muscles, but his eyes are clear and bright.
Wen Ranran curled her lips and replied.
"I'm afraid of being poisoned."
The man chuckled.
"Then... let me give you a taste? You're going to die anyway, so it's better to eat before you die."
Wen Ranran was moved by such a foodie spirit and became curious about the person in front of her.
This prison is full of felons, and the one in front of me...
"Brother, what did you do to get here?"
The man twirled his dirty beard and spit out two words.
"corruption!"
Wen Ranran was surprised.
The man continued, "My name is Wan Guangsheng. Before I was imprisoned, I was the commander-in-chief of the Hucaoku Army. May I ask the girl her name?"
"Wen Ranran."
Wan Guangsheng nodded, as if he had heard something.
Wen Ranran looked at the thin Wan Guangsheng in front of her, still a little suspicious.
Corrupt officials have always been obese since ancient times, but Wan Guangsheng never looks like a corrupt official.
"Are you...really corrupt?"
"No! I was slandered!"
Wen Ranran's eyes twitched, "Would you like to hear the details?"
