After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

"Is everyone here?"

The old princess sat down in the empty seat next to the clan leader and spoke with a sullen face.

"My Lord, everyone who should have come has arrived, and the family has been invited to the courtyard next door."

Nanny Lin leaned over to report.

When the tribesmen saw this scene, they were very surprised and had a feeling that something very important might be happening today. They did not dare to gather together and whisper. They all sat up straight, watching their own business and not daring to say much.

The clan leader had already heard about this matter from the old princess, so he sat there calmly, and no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.

"let's start……"

The old princess glanced at the clan leader, who nodded in agreement and sent someone to bring the person up.

Although the clan leader has a high seniority, he still has to rely on the big tree of Ning Wang Mansion, so he basically listens to the old princess, the highest decision-maker in the palace.

Soon, three old women were supported up. Seeing so many people sitting there, the three of them were quite nervous.

"You are all elders in Prince Ning's Mansion. When the third master was born, you were the ones who served him, right?"

The clan leader was holding a thick stack of rice paper, which was already filled with questions for these people. He was asking them again on the spot, but he was only speaking to the other people in the clan.

"To answer the clan leader's words, we were indeed the ones who followed him to serve."

The old women knelt on the ground and honestly recounted what had happened that day in detail.

"That is to say, after the Third Master was born, you saw that he had no mole at the corner of his mouth, right?"

When the old patriarch said this, everyone else in the room was shocked, and some of them looked at Xu Qinghe.

These people had joked together before that maybe Xu Qinghe really was a member of their Xu family. It just so happened that they had the same surname. Maybe he was the concubine of the old King Ning who was left outside.

Why does it sound like there is some other hidden story behind this?

Everyone pricked up their ears to listen to what the maids said. They lived up to everyone's expectations, nodding like chickens pecking at rice and answering affirmatively:

"It's strange to say, when our master gave birth to the little master, although everyone was very busy, we could still see clearly that the little master's face was very white. I don't know what happened, but the old lady took him outside for a walk, and when she came back..."

"I saw it at the time, but the master was in trouble, so no one had time to think too much. Besides, the old lady and our master are family, and they get along like sisters on weekdays. How could she suspect anything..."

"Thinking about it this way, she must have taken the opportunity to replace our young master. My poor master..."

A few old women explained in a few words what had happened in detail. The clan leader nodded and asked someone to take them to the side to wait.

Then someone brought Xu Muyun in. She and several people from the Liu family had been kept under observation in the next room. They could hear clearly what was happening here and what these people said.

"Uncle clan leader, please don't listen to those bastards."

As soon as Xu Muyun came in, he immediately rushed to the patriarch, his eyes full of anger and fear.

"When my brother got into trouble, my sister-in-law went to the border with a big belly. At that time, I was still an unmarried girl, and I resolutely accompanied her to the border. Even if I didn't have any merits, I must have worked hard. How come after so many years, you are still slandering me?"

As she spoke, she took out a handkerchief, covered her face with it, and began to cry sadly.

"Yes, it's such a big thing, you can't just put the blame on my mother because of a few old women saying it casually, right?"

"If you can't produce any solid evidence today, then we'll just cut off our relationship from now on..."

Xu Muyun's two sons rushed in, one on each side, and helped her to stand up. They glared at the old princess and the clan leader fiercely, looking humiliated.

"Wow... my poor mother has been thinking about her family all these years, but she never expected that they would not treat her as one of their own. They are blaming her for all the shit..."

Xu Muyun's daughter Liu Yingying also came back and hugged her mother, crying inconsolably.

"Although our Liu family is not a wealthy family, we cannot be a family that you can bully and frame at will. If you don't explain this matter clearly, won't my wife be wrongly accused?"

Liu Guangwen, the head of the Liu family, also strode in. He has been in a high position in recent years and is a man who has the final say in the local area. Of course, his aura is not small.

At this moment, a pair of cold eyes scanned the people in the hall, and finally met the old patriarch's gaze. Then, he stood there calmly, waiting for him to give him an explanation.

"Wow... I finally understand now. The so-called maternal family and the so-called elder sister-in-law are like a mother are all lies. At the critical moment, it is still my man and children who will protect me..."

Xu Muyun seemed to have suffered a great injustice. She immediately began to wipe her tears with her handkerchief. She cried and made a fuss, and at the same time accused the old princess, saying that she started to bully her deliberately because her parents and brother were no longer around.

These people made a fuss in the middle of the hall for a while, but everyone just watched them quietly. No one came up to persuade them, and no one followed their wishes to blame the old princess.

"Ever since I returned to Beijing, my sister-in-law has been looking down on me, as if she couldn't stand me. It turns out she was waiting for me here..."

Seeing that the old princess remained silent, Xu Muyun sneered in her heart. She didn't believe that this old woman would have any solid evidence.

"If my sister-in-law is dissatisfied with me, she can just tell me directly. We are all family. Why do we have to do this?"

After watching her struggle for a while, the old princess finally spoke.

"Do you think that what happened back then was so flawless that no one would come up with any evidence?"

She looked at the aggrieved Xu Muyun with disdain, which immediately made Xu Muyun's heart skip a beat.

"Sister-in-law..."

"Shut up! You have done something so evil, how can you still have the right to call me."

The old princess turned her eyes away in disgust and winked at Nanny Lin at the door.

Nanny Lin understood and trotted out, soon entering the hall with several people.

When they saw these people, many people in the hall felt a tightness in their hearts and understood what was going on.

Xu Muyun's eyes widened and his body staggered uncontrollably several times.
