Chapter 72 Verdict

The young man nervously watched the change in Lord Wang's expression, "Lord! I promise on behalf of all the villagers that everyone in our village will help Miss Luo raise little Luo with all their strength! Madam taught us a lot of agricultural knowledge, and we are all very grateful to her."

Master Xiao: "I think there's something wrong with you. Are you attracted to this woman? That's why you speak for her? Does your confession still count? I don't admit it!"

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable to him, Young Master Xiao's main point was that I doubted all the evidence of the other party.

Mo Xun almost laughed at the scumbag, "Who said you can't make a confession if you like someone? He brought the confession signed by the whole village, it can't be faked."

"That's right!" At this time, Chen, one of the two midwives who came in with Young Master Xiao, stood up and said, "Sir, I can testify. People in our village have more or less heard Madam mention that she was forced to marry. I didn't expect there were so many hidden secrets. This man even spoke ill of Madam outside the delivery room before, saying that Madam would be in trouble if she couldn't give birth to a son! I guess he took so much trouble to find the child because he gave birth to a boy!"

"You!" Young Master Xiao looked at Midwife Chen in disbelief.

Chen Wenpo took out a money bag and threw it hard at Master Xiao, "Bah! I feel sick holding your stinky money all the way! If I hadn't pretended to submit to you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be here to help Miss Luo testify!"

Lord Wang slammed the chopping board and said, "Master Xiao, do you have anything else to say?!"

Master Xiao: "I don't believe it! They are so close that they must have made false testimony! I don't recognize this evidence!"

Miss Luo was really fooled by this man's roguery. She shouted directly at Master Xiao, "Don't think that the government in Yangcheng can't control your Xiao family! Sir, you can put us all in jail and send people to inquire around his Xiao family. His act of destroying my sister's innocence was known to everyone, so he married my sister unwillingly. After the marriage, he didn't allow my sister to come back home or us to visit, so he didn't know that I was the second daughter of the Du family. This is his retribution!"

Young man: "I agree. I am willing to go to jail."

Chen Wenpo: "I agree too."

Master Xiao: "You guys!..."

Young Master Xiao felt like he was about to be thrown into jail. He had clearly said that he was coming to pick up his adopted son, so why was he going to be thrown in jail?

"Um... Lord Wang..." Young Master Xiao walked towards Lord Wang with a flattering look on his face, "Lord Wang, can I have a word with you?"

As soon as he said this, Mr. Mo and Mr. San, who were beside Lord Wang, changed their expressions. Was he trying to bribe the court officials? Was this how he suppressed the rape of the common people?

When Lord Wang heard what he said, he was very upset and immediately ordered someone to take him away. "Come here, take this man to the prison! Don't you see where this place is? This is my court! Not your ancestral hall! Also, take them to the prison together, and immediately send people to the Du and Xiao families and nearby residents to verify the situation. If it is true, Xiao Luo will be sentenced to be Miss Luo's."

The young man jumped up with joy when he heard this. "Great! Great!"

Just like that, amid the cheers of the young men, several people were taken to jail by officers and soldiers.

Before leaving, Miss Luo looked at Xiao Luo reluctantly. Only when she saw that he was still sleeping soundly in Ningxu's arms did she feel relieved.

After leading everyone to suppress it, Lord Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the Third Master, "Master, is this okay?"

Finally, the evil was suppressed, but he still wanted to bribe the government. It was really a death sentence in front of His Majesty.

The Third Master looked at Ningxu, who nodded happily.

Third Master: "Okay, we'll set off in three days, and I want to hear the verdict then."

Lord Wang: "Okay, sir!"

Three days later, when they were about to set off, three figures stood outside the inn waiting for Sanye and Ningxu and the others.

After seeing them, Ningxu returned Xiao Luo to Miss Luo with a sense of relief. "Luckily you guys came out, otherwise Xiao Luo would have to follow us south."

Miss Luo: "Ms. Mo, thank you for giving Xiao Luo a legal identity."

Ningxu: "It's okay! Live a good life when you go back! Write to us when you have time!"

Miss Luo: "Okay."

The verdict was delivered to the Third Master early in the morning.

According to the investigation, it was true that Master Xiao abducted women and committed domestic violence. After getting married, he took several concubines and favored them over his wife. It was also true that he bribed officials with gold and silver. He was punished for multiple crimes and all the family property was confiscated. Master Xiao was thrown into prison for ten years and then exiled, which was basically equivalent to a house raid.

The identity of Miss Luo as the second daughter of the Du family was also confirmed, and the missing case reported by the Du family was also cleared. Little Luo was awarded to her aunt, and the body of Miss Du was sent back to the Du Mansion.

After Miss Luo and the other two walked away, Mo Xi finally put on a smile on his face, "Finally they left, I feel relieved!"

Ningxu: "You are so beautiful. If you don't like me so much, why didn't you chase me away before?"

"I am a beautiful and kind person, and I'm happy to do it!" After saying that, Mo Xi turned around and got on the carriage.

Ningxu looked at her back and said, "She's quite arrogant."

The Third Master stepped forward and supported Ning Xu, "Let's go, I hope my eyes are not wrong."

Ningxu: "What do you mean?"

The Third Master raised his eyebrows and helped Ning Xu get on the carriage. "Let's talk in the carriage."

After the two got on the bus and sat down, the team moved forward slowly.

Third Master: "The guards reported earlier that there were six bodies in the dilapidated house. How could she, a weak woman, who was holding a child, be killed? Someone must have helped her."

"You mean, that guy?"

Third Master: "I'm afraid it's more than that. She can wander around with the child for three months. She has no milk, what will the child eat?"

Ningxu suddenly realized that after three months of wandering in the mountains, what would the adults eat? What would the children eat?

Third Master: "I hope so. Miss Luo's love for Xiao Luo will never change."

Ningxu: "Sure enough, your brain works better than mine."

The Third Master smiled and moved closer to Ningxu, "Right, Meng'er, but your martial arts skills are better than mine, let's fight to a draw."

Because Xiao Luo's matter delayed the progress, in order to speed up the journey, they traveled almost at night. Except for eating and resting for a while, they were on the road all the time.

Five days later, everyone, who hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, finally stopped on their journey. After dinner, they set up camp. Mo Xun and Mo Xiao practiced sword in one group, and Ning Xu and Mo Xi were in the other group.

But Mo Xi still couldn't change her tsundere nature. The two of them could only get along peacefully for a moment before they would quarrel over big and small things. Finally, Ning Xu saw that Mo Xi had learned everything, so she let her practice on her own and went to play with the Third Master~

Mo Xi: "Dead couple."

When Ningxu came to the Third Master, the guard had just finished reporting the situation. "What's wrong? What happened again?"

The Third Master smiled slightly, "No, Miss Luo and the others have already returned to the Du Mansion. After taking care of Miss Du's funeral, they set off back to the village."

Ningxu: "That's good."
