Luo Qinghan asked someone to bring some persimmons and grapefruit.

As soon as she saw something delicious, Xiao Xixi suddenly regained her spirits.

She peeled off the grapefruit and took a bite of the grapefruit flesh, which was sour, sweet and juicy, very delicious!

"Would you like to try it, Your Highness?"

Luo Qinghan sat down beside her, turned his head slightly, and bit the grapefruit meat she handed over.

Xiao Xixi asked expectantly, "Is it delicious?"

Luo Qinghan: "It's okay."

Xiao Xixi ate happily, occasionally feeding the prince a bite.

A grapefruit was quickly eaten by them.

At this time, Xiao Lingfeng and the Xue family came.

The couple seemed to be in bad spirits.

Especially Xue Shi, with two dark circles on her face, even if she deliberately put on a thick powder, she still couldn't hide her haggardness.

She couldn't sleep all night last night, and she was thinking about Ming Deng Zhenren. She was afraid that Ming Deng Zhenren would not want to transform Xiao Lan, so what would Xiao Lan do in the future?

The two came forward to greet each other.

"The last general/court-wife pays tribute to His Royal Highness the Prince."

Luo Qinghan said: "Jingzhao Mansion has captured Zhu Quankun, do you want to go see him?"

Seeing the blank faces of their husband and wife, Luo Qinghan explained, "Zhu Quankun is the real person you call Ming Deng."

Xue's eyes widened and asked eagerly, "Ming Deng Zhenren was caught? How is he now?"

Luo Qinghan said: "It seems that you really care about him. He is in prison now and is being interrogated. If you two don't mind, you can go and see him."

Xue Shi was so anxious that she thanked the prince for his grace and hurried to the prison with Xiao Lingfeng.

From the beginning to the end, they didn't look at Xiao Xixi who was sitting next to the prince.

Xiao Xixi didn't seem to care much about it.

Compared with Xiao Lingfeng and his wife, she was more concerned about the food in her hands.

Luo Qinghan touched her head.

Xiao Xixi turned to look at him, apricot eyes full of doubts.

All right, what are you doing by touching her head?

Luo Qinghan: "Gu thinks you're doing fine now."

If you don't care, you won't get hurt.

...

In the torture room, Mei Guangtao is interrogating Zhu Quankun.

Due to the conclusive evidence of human and material evidence, Zhu Quankun could not deny it, and could only plead guilty to the law.

He told all the cases he committed in Shengjing.

But nothing was said about his previous crimes.

Of course, Mei Guangtao would not let him go so easily, and let him be punished directly, forcing him to explain everything clearly, not a single word of it was allowed.

After a period of severe torture, Zhu Quankun finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he told all the immoral things he had done before.

Mei Guangtao asked Chang Shi to record the confession next to him.

At this moment, Xiao Lingfeng and Xue Shi hurriedly walked in.

As soon as the two entered the torture chamber, they were frightened by Zhu Quankun's bloody appearance.

Xiao Lingfeng was a little better, he was someone who had gone to the battlefield, and his hands had been stained with blood.

After a brief period of surprise, he quickly calmed down.

But Xue Shi can't. She is just an ordinary inner house woman. How could she ever see such a bloody scene?

She almost fainted from fright.

Fortunately, Xiao Lingfeng supported her in time and reminded her.

"Now is not the time to panic, think about our Xiaolan."

As soon as he heard this, Xue Shi regained his strength and tried not to panic too much.

Xiao Lingfeng bowed his hands to Mei Guangtao, and asked politely, "May I ask the Governor of Mei to make it easier for us to ask the prisoner a few words?"

Mei Guangtao knew that they were called by the prince, so he was not embarrassed, and motioned for them to take care of themselves.

Xiao Lingfeng walked up to Zhu Quankun and asked.

"You said that my youngest daughter has a difficult life and may suffer a great disaster. Is this true?"

Zhu Quankun was already at the end of the road at this time. He had several charges on his back, and he didn't care if there were more charges of deception.

So he didn't hide it, and told the truth.

"Naturally it's fake. I won't let people look at it at all. All the words I said are all lies to you."

Xiao Lingfeng and the Xue family were stunned on the spot.

Xue Shi couldn't believe it, and asked in a trembling voice, "How could it be fake? When you told our eldest daughter fortune-telling, you said she was a lonely star, and she killed her fellow brother as soon as she was born. , We sent her out because we believed what you said. After we sent her away, our family has been safe and sound for so many years, isn't it all you calculated?"

Zhu Quankun was very weak now, and he took a long rest before speaking again.

"I was fooling you back then. I didn't expect that you would actually believe it when I said it casually."

When Xue Shi heard this, he almost collapsed.

Xiao Lingfeng's eyes were a little red. He stared at Zhu Quankun's scarred face and asked, "Why are you lying to us?"

Zhu Quankun grinned, revealing his blood-stained teeth: "Of course it's for money. The more serious I say, the more money you will give."

Xiao Lingfeng couldn't bear it any longer, he wanted to rush to kill this bastard, but was stopped by the jailers.

Mei Guangtao said calmly, "Zhu Quankun is an important prisoner. You can't do anything to him. If you don't have anything else to ask, please leave. We will continue to conclude the case."

Xiao Lingfeng and the Xue family were politely invited out.

The two stood at the door of the torture chamber and did not move for a long time.

They always thought that Xiao Xixi was a lonely star, and believed that she killed her twin brother.

But Zhu Quankun's words just now were like a slap in the face, slapped on their faces, destroying all the facts they had previously identified.

The collapse of this belief leaves their minds blank and unable to accept reality.

Taking the last bit of luck, Xiao Lingfeng asked dryly, "You brought Xiao Lan into the palace to see Xiao Xixi before, but you fell into the water shortly after returning. Isn't this bad luck brought by Xiao Xixi?"

Xue said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Xixi reminded me and Xiaolan before that we should not approach the bridge for three days, but I didn't take her words to heart. If I listened to her warning, Xiaolan and I would won't fall into the water."

Xiao Lingfeng couldn't believe it and asked sharply, "Why don't I know about this? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I thought she just said that casually, but I didn't take it seriously at all."

The more the couple thought about it, the more difficult it became to accept.

If Xiao Xixi is not the Lone Star, then what they have done over the years, wouldn't it be a joke? !

Xue Shi couldn't help crying.

"Did we do something wrong?"

Xiao Lingfeng didn't know how to answer. He was flustered and said: "Let's go back first and think about what to do about this."

The Xue family was in chaos now, and she didn't know what to do. After hearing what the Xianggong said, she immediately agreed.

The husband and wife left Jingzhaoyin in despair and returned to General Chungmu's mansion in a carriage.
