Sure enough, footsteps were heard outside again, and then a group of people appeared at the door.

"Master Yao, Master Zhu, Master Ouyang, please take a seat here..."

The old patriarch quickly stood up and asked someone to bring soft chairs to the adults.

Lord Yao is from the Jingzhao Yin Yamen, Lord Zhu is from the Dali Temple, and Lord Ouyang is a censor.

These people have seen many cases in the capital. They were invited to Prince Ning's Mansion today. Looking at the scene, they knew it would not be simple.

As expected, this woman was too bold. She actually dared to exchange her brother's son with someone else. At the very least, it was confusing the family bloodline. At the most, it was murder...

"My Lords, you have all heard what happened just now. We have all the evidence and witnesses. Please give our family some justice."

The old princess stood up tremblingly and bowed solemnly to Lord Yao and the others.

"Okay, okay. It is our duty to uphold justice. Please rest assured, Princess."

Lord Yao sighed, personally helped the old princess sit down, and said soothingly:

"Don't get anxious or angry. This incident has been discovered after so many years. It means it is God's will. God couldn't bear to see you and your son separated, so he let the truth surface..."

Lord Yao had a good relationship with Ning Wang Xu Jinren. Even though she was missing at the border, he couldn't just turn a blind eye and watch his mother come to him for help.

Besides, when he first met Xu Qinghe, he felt that not only did he look very much like Prince Ning, but even the way he spoke was particularly similar. After listening to what the two Xu brothers said today, he almost understood the truth of the matter.

It seems that the child who was exchanged with Xu Jinran back then was definitely Xu Qinghe.

In that case, doesn't that mean Xu Qinghe is the third master of Prince Ning's Mansion?

Lord Yao felt very conflicted. On the one hand, he felt jealous of Xu Qinghe's good luck, but on the other hand, he was happy that he was reunited with his family.

"My Lords, please do not listen to their one-sided words. This is simply a blatant slander. I was still an unmarried girl at the time. How could I have the courage to do such a big thing..."

Seeing this, Xu Muyun also became anxious and quickly began to argue for himself.

"Besides, he is my own nephew. How could I possibly do such a thing? Even if I really had that idea, what good would it do me?"

"Yes, since you are here, please make the decision for my wife. She was still young at the time, and she would definitely not do something that would harm others and not benefit herself..."

Liu Guangwen also hurriedly bowed to Lord Yao and the others, and helped Xu Muyun to speak well of them.

At this critical moment, no matter whether Xu Muyun did this or not, he must find a way to clear himself of the matter.

Otherwise, let alone taking another step up, it would be very uncertain whether you can keep your current position.

"Please, sir, make the decision for my mother..."

"Your Excellency is honest and upright, and will surely be able to clear my mother of all the injustice she has suffered..."

"Please, sir, please investigate this thoroughly. We must not let these people wrongly accuse my mother..."

Liu Jiaqi and his sisters also knew that they must not let Xu Muyun get into trouble, so they were willing to take it easy. They knelt down without saying a word and begged bitterly to Lord Yao and the others.

"Wuwuwu...Since my sister-in-law has wronged me like this, I might as well just die..."

Xu Muyun seemed to have suffered a great injustice. He covered his face and cried for a few times, then pretended to crash into the table next to Lord Yao.

"Mom...don't!"

"Don't do anything stupid..."

The Liu family members tried to stop them in panic, but saw a short and fat woman rushing over, grabbing Xu Muyun by the waist and putting her aside.

The old princess gave her an appreciative look. The woman smiled innocently and went to stand obediently in the corner next to her.

Everyone then realized that the old princess had anticipated this and had made full preparations.

It seems that today's events can definitely be made clear.

Xu Muyun failed to commit suicide, so she simply stopped trying to argue and insisted that the two things did not belong to her and that she had no idea what Xu Qinghai had said.

However, the lie was soon exposed because her name was engraved inside the silver bracelet.

There was also a small word "cloud" embroidered on the purse.

The Liu family was still arguing that it was a coincidence, but when the old princess had Xu Jinran brought up, they were speechless.

There's no way around it, Xu Jinran and the brothers Xu Qinghai and Xu Qingjiang are just too similar.

This is also because the Xu Qinghai brothers have been working too hard and too tiring in the mines recently, and they are not well fed and clothed. They used to be quite plump, but now they have become skin and bones.

It just so happened that even though Xu Jinran had taken good care of himself since he was a child, he still looked like he was not full. At this time, when the three of them stood together, anyone could tell that they were related by blood.

"Mother, I know you have disliked me since I was a child. Even if you have any opinions about me, why not just drive your son out of the house? There is no need to treat me like this, right?"

Xu Jinran looked at the old princess very hurt. Seeing that she ignored him, he gritted his teeth in hatred. He knew that this old woman's heart was harder than stone, and it was useless to beg her.

He took two steps forward, knelt in front of the clan leader, and shouted for him to help make the decision.

Unlike Xu Jinran, when Xu Qinghai and Xu Qingjiang saw him, they looked at each other and knew that they were finally saved.

When Old Man Xu was alive, he secretly told them brothers that they had a brother who was a young master in the Ning Wang Mansion in the capital. If anything happened in the future and they had no choice, they could go to the capital to ask him for help.

Of course Xu Muyun would not tell Old Man Xu about these things at the beginning, but Old Man Xu had been working outside for many years and was smarter than a monkey. He secretly contacted those coach drivers and got their words out.

Before they came to the capital, they had wanted to find a way to contact Xu Jinran, but as they were new here and didn't know the way, they thought of waiting until the time was right. However, after a few days, they were sold to a place like a mine.

At this time, the Xu Qinghai brothers were very happy. Anyway, Xu Qinghe had been knocked off the cliff and died by them. So even if the identity of their brother was exposed, it would not have much impact, right?

Even if we take a step back, he has lived in the capital for many years, in a high-ranking mansion like the Ning Prince's Mansion. He must have some properties and savings, and maybe even an official.
