princess regent lifted from her grave

At this time, the man in the lobby was also arguing with reason. The deed of prostitution in his hand was real, and the money his father spent was real money. This woman was bought by his father for him. How could he be taken away by others at will? .

Then, the man picked up the young son beside him, knelt down with a sad face and said,

"Sir, Cao Min's youngest son is only two years old. His previous wife passed away due to a serious illness in the cold winter last year. This child needs his mother to take care of him, so Cao Min's father bought this maid to make a second string for Cao Min and also for the baby in his arms. The young son becomes a mother, so that he will no longer be ridiculed by others as a miserable child without a mother. Cao Min and his wife have just gotten married, and they are very rare towards her. It is inevitable that they have lost some sense of proportion. In the future, Cao Min will treat his wife well, and I hope you will make decisions for Cao Min. Let the grassroots take the lady back."

The man calmly squeezed the child in his arms, and the child suddenly burst into tears and shouted, "I want my mother."

The heart-wrenching cry of the child, and the bitter words of the man just now, really made the listener sad and the listener shed tears.

Suddenly, the onlookers began to sympathize with the man and the child again. The man lost his sense of proportion towards his newly married woman. It is understandable that the child is young and too pitiful...

When the man heard the whispers of the onlookers, he lowered his eyes to cover the emotions in his eyes. The man who claimed to be the father of the lady would be sensational, and he was no less generous.

When Nangong Ying heard what the man said, she turned pale with fright. She clutched her father's clothes tightly and begged,

"Father, don't go back, my daughter. Father, hurry up and save your daughter..."

Nangong Ying's crying, the child's crying, and the whispers of the onlookers outside the lobby,

The noise made Mr. Li's head hurt, and he slapped Jingxingmu hard again.

Master Li saw that the courtroom instantly became quiet, and then he looked at the Nangong clan leader and said,

"This deed of sale is true. What you just said is that there is no evidence to find your niece..."

Before Mr. Li finished speaking, an official rushed in and whispered to Mr. Li. Mr. Li nodded slightly and quickly retreated after the official finished speaking.

Then Mr. Li looked at Nangong Ying seriously. He didn't expect that she was really a maid, but...

Master Li looked suspicious. He felt that the matter was not simple.

When Nangong Ying saw the master's expression, a bad premonition came over her.

Master Li looked at Nangong Ying and asked sternly,

"Nangong Ying, have you stayed at Jingya Inn before?"

Nangong Ying's heart tightened, and then she remembered about Guard Li. How could she forget about maid Xiao He taking her place?

Seeing her look, Mr. Li knew that what he just said was not wrong and continued,

"You were staying at the Jingya Inn with your lady before. Your lady has been arrested and imprisoned by the officials for instructing the guards to go to Qing Mansion to steal. Moreover, the lady confessed to the matter and has been punished accordingly according to the law. After your young lady was caught, you maids ran away and escaped. Is what I said true?"

Nangong Ying's face turned even paler. She heard clearly that Xiao He had been punished accordingly. At this time, if she revealed the truth again, would she be sent to jail directly?

In the eyes of others, Nangong Ying's ever-changing expression showed a guilty conscience and acquiescence.

Patriarch Nangong finally understood what Mr. Li just said. His mind turned very quickly and he immediately understood the pros and cons. He no longer argued hard about his daughter’s status as a young lady. However, Patriarch Nangong was still the first to feel aggrieved. After experiencing this for the first time, he was extremely dissatisfied with his daughter deep down in his heart. If her daughter had not known the whereabouts of the treasure, he would have wanted to turn around and leave now.

The man who was kneeling aside and hugging the child saw the lady's expression and knew that what the adults said was true. He was very happy. Although there was some discrepancy with what his father told him about the lady being sold, it didn't matter. He had the deed of sale in his hand, and the lady was I can only go back with him.

Nangong Ying did not answer what Mr. Li said, but prayed to the Nangong clan leader with fearful eyes, "Father, my daughter does not want to go back, and the woman does not want to be insulted again." This expression seemed to be greatly stimulated.

The man held the child in his arms and interrupted at the right time, "Madam, I lost my sense in the past. I will treat you well in the future. I hope Madam will give me a chance and come back with me."

The man had a look of regret on his face, and he looked extremely affectionate. Only Nangong Ying knew how good this man was at pretending, and there was a difference between the person in front of him and the person behind him.

Patriarch Nangong covered his stern eyes, turned to Lord Li and begged,

"Sir, how can we free the daughter of the grassroots from slavery? The grassroots really don't want to see their daughter suffer again with their own eyes."

Mr. Li did not answer the question,

"Do you know the young lady who was imprisoned? Or do you know their parents? That young lady took on everything and said nothing about her parents. She almost committed suicide by biting her tongue. Now she is making trouble in the prison. He went on a hunger strike and wanted to die. He had been on hunger strike for several days and now he is dying, with more air coming out and less air coming in."

Then Mr. Li looked at Nangong Ying and asked,

"Do you know whether your lady has sent people to rob other mansions?"

Master Li looked at the two people in front of him steadily. If the woman in front of him was a young lady, then the one who was arrested and imprisoned was not a maid. However, the case has been closed, and the woman in prison insisted that she was a young lady. After all, Qingfu had killed all the guards out of self-protection and would no longer pursue the matter.

It is said that the people will not sue the officials and will not be held accountable. The Qing Dynasty did not cause any substantial harm and did not steal anything. As for who is the real lady and who is the fake lady, Mr. Li is too lazy to investigate. Asking such a question is also to let them know who he is. They have already suspected something fishy, ​​so they should stay calm in the Holy City and not do any more robberies.

Patriarch Nangong thought a lot, and finally replied, "Sir, Cao Min is just a household farmer. Cao Min naturally knows the father of the young lady. It's just that Cao Min has a humble status and only knows him."

Nangong Ying also said in a weak voice, "Sir, the common people are just maids serving the young lady. They don't know anything else."

Lord Li did not say anything more, but looked at the two people with serious eyes. The Nangong clan leader looked calm and was not afraid of Lord Li's gaze. He knew that the Lord was suspicious.

But so what, what happened in Fenghuang Village is not something he can find out if he wants to. If he sends back the news in advance, saying that Xiao He is the young lady, this sir will only be able to find out this result. Furthermore, what the sir just said The words were just a warning to them.

Nangong Ying was extremely nervous. Just when she almost couldn't bear it anymore, Master Li's voice came again,

"If you want to escape from slavery, you can only redeem your daughter."

Clan Chief Nangong understood. He looked at the man holding the child and asked in a deep voice, "How much money can be exchanged for my daughter's deed of sale?"

The man turned his eyes. He heard clearly what Mr. Li just said. He didn't expect that this lady's young lady would be imprisoned. How could a young lady who committed theft bring out a maid with an upright mind? However, it couldn't be like this. Sell ​​people easily.
