Answer 1

Try this code it might help you.
NSDictionary *dicationary = #{
#"key1":#"value1",
#"key2":#"value2",
#"key3":#[#{#"key01":#"value01",#"key02":#"value02"},
#{#"key01":#"value01",#"key02":#"value02"},
#{#"key01":#"value01",#"key02":#"value02"}]
};

There is API in obj-c to convert Json to nsdictionary .I guess you should try that :
First convert json to nsdata (assuming you above JSON is in string format)
2.Then you API to convert that to NSDictionary :
NSDictionary *dictionary = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions error:&error];

Just to answer your question about converting that JSON data to NSDictionary, here it is:
(assuming you already got your JSON data)
// add the first 2 VALUES with it's KEYS
NSMutableDictionary *mainDict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[mainDict setValue:VALUE1 forKey:KEY1];
[mainDict setValue:VALUE2 forKey:KEY2];
// then for the last KEY, create a mutable array where you will store your sub dictionaries
NSMutableArray *ma = [NSMutableArray array];
NSMutableDictionary *subDict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[subDict setValue:SUB_VALUE1 forKey:SUB_KEY1];
[subDict setValue:SUB_VALUE1 forKey:SUB_KEY2];
[ma addObject:subDict];
// then add that array to your main dictionary
[mainDict setValue:ma forKey:KEY3];
// check the output
NSLog(#"mainDict : %#", mainDict);
// SAMPLE DATA - Test this if this is what you want
NSMutableDictionary *mainDict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[mainDict setValue:#"value1" forKey:#"key1"];
[mainDict setValue:#"value2" forKey:#"key2"];
NSMutableArray *ma = [NSMutableArray array];
NSMutableDictionary *subDict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[subDict setValue:#"subValue1" forKey:#"subKey1"];
[subDict setValue:#"subValue2" forKey:#"subKey2"];
[ma addObject:subDict];
[mainDict setValue:ma forKey:#"key3"];
NSLog(#"mainDict : %#", mainDict);

The following should work for you:
NSString *jsonString = #"{\"ID\":{\"Content\":268,\"type\":\"text\"}}";
NSData *data = [jsonString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSDictionary *jsonDict = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:0 error:nil];
NSLog(#"%#", jsonDict[#"ID"][#"Content"]);
Will return you:
268
