The villagers nodded one after another. Although they didn't believe it, what they just heard was indeed true.

Xu Er, who was stopped by He Li, stared wide-eyed, and looked at the guard who reported to Zhu Yuanzhang in disbelief.

"my son?"

"My son is back?!"

He kept repeating these two sentences, and his trance-like demeanor seemed to be really crazy.

soon.

A young man rushed here under the leadership of the guards.

"father!"

When Xu Eryi saw that his son had returned safe and sound, his feet softened and he sat on the ground.

His son hurriedly stepped forward to support him, holding back his tears and saying:

"The child is unfilial, which makes the father worry."

"Son, let Dad see you!"

Xu Erzai checked his son carefully, and found that there was no missing arm or leg, so he felt relieved, grabbed his son's arm tightly and said:

"Just come back, just come back."

Followed by.

He pulled his son and said to the villagers behind him:

"Did you see it? I said my son is still alive!"

"Which of you said that my son is dead? It's all nonsense!"

Ge Lao blinked his eyes vigorously, for fear that he would be dazzled.

But obviously.

Xu Er's son just appeared in front of him alive, and he couldn't fake it.

"Boy Xu, are you...are you alright?"

"Aren't you captured by the Ding family?"

"Could it be that the Ding family let you go?"

Xu Erzi smiled and said to his fellow villagers:

"Yes, I'm fine."

"How could the Ding family let me go...I escaped by feigning death."

Hear this.

A flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in Zhu Xiongying's mind.

Zhu Yuanzhang also became interested.

"Fake death? What's going on, tell us."

Hear the words of the emperor.

Xu Er's son didn't dare to reminisce with the villagers anymore.

He quickly saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and said:

"Grassman Xu Changye, please greet His Majesty!"

"Caomin was able to escape from birth because Caomin made two good friends since childhood. Although they didn't keep in touch with each other often after they grew up, the friendship they had when they were children is still there... and it just so happens that these two people worked in Ding's mansion. servant."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and said:

"did you mean……"

"These two let you escape?"

Xu Changye nodded and said:

"Yes, Your Majesty. After the grass people were knocked out and dragged away by the Ding family, they knew that they were close to death... But there is no such thing as a path. The two young children of the grass people in the Ding family's mansion saw the grass people being dragged back, so they went Taking the initiative to ask the grassroots to be dealt with, this allows the grassroots to survive."

"During this period of time, the grass people can't escape at will, otherwise they will kill the two benefactors who saved me."

"That's why I thought of a plan to feign death with the two Faxiao."

"The other person who was beaten to death by the Ding family's servants pretended to be the corpse of the grass-roots man, so that he could deceive the world... Let the Ding family think that the grass-roots man is dead, so they don't have to attack my father anymore."

"Those two young girls from Caomin, although they are servants of the Ding family, have never done anything harmful... This time, after Caomin's persuasion, they are willing to come forward to testify that the Ding family has done illegal things!"

"Today, when I heard that His Majesty came to inspect the village, Cao Min took the risk to come out, in order to bring witnesses and report the evil deeds that his Ding family did in Hangzhou!"

After listening to Xu Changye's words.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded approvingly and said:

"The former servants of the Ding family... are good witnesses. If there are witnesses, let them come up quickly."

The scholars who came here specially to help the Ding family speak were dumbfounded.

How could this person suddenly appear on the way?

Wu Heng was also very nervous.

He dared to take money from the Ding family and came here to stand for the Ding family because the Ding family had assured him that these villagers had no evidence at all.

As long as he muddies the water with his eloquence, even the emperor can't be unreasonable and directly condemn the Ding family.

But now.

A person who was already dead suddenly popped up and said that there was someone to prove it. Isn't this killing him!

The crime of bullying the king will be beheaded!

Here, Wu Heng is still frantically thinking about how to get rid of the crime.

Over there, under Zhu Yuanzhang's instruction, the guards brought over the two servants of the Ding family who let Xu Changye go.

As soon as they saw Zhu Yuanzhang, the two men knelt down in fright and shouted long live.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak, but just gave He Li a wink.

He Li immediately understood, and asked the two men:

"Are you servants of the Ding family?"

The two quickly replied:

"Yes, we have been working in the Ding family for more than ten years, and the neighbors in the neighborhood know that we work in the Ding family."

He Li continued to ask:

"Xu Changye, who you let go, said that the two of you have evidence against the Ding family and you want to report on the Ding family. Is there such a thing?"

The two said in unison:

"Returning to the official, it is true. The two of us really can't stand what the Ding family has done. Although we are servants of the Ding family, we can't help the Ding family to deceive the Holy One!"

"So I thought about asking Xu Changye to talk about it, so that we can report on the Ding family."

It seems reasonable to see what the two said.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked himself:

"Then tell me in detail."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

then.

The two told you and I told all kinds of embarrassing things about the Ding family.

But what I said was basically painless.

Either Ding Bin's son Ding Heyuan walked the bird to molest women.

Or the Ding family spent money to forcefully buy the fields outside Hangzhou.

In short.

After talking for a while.

Even if all the crimes reported by these two people were found.

It's just a heavy punishment to the Ding family, and it can't hurt Ding Bin and his son at all.

As for beating the dead, the two mentioned a few words.

But it sounds like it was not ordered by Ding Bin, but ordered by the steward of Ding's house privately?

As such.

Use them as witnesses.

There is no way to convict Ding Bin, Ding Heyuan and his son of a felony!

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang's face became more and more ugly.

Xu Changye was also taken aback, and hastily stopped his two little ones.

"You guys get to the point!"

"Don't say such trivial things here..."

"Just tell Your Majesty all the things you told me about Ding Bin when I was hiding in the Ding Mansion!"

Who knows.

The two servants looked at Xu Changye with a blank expression and said:

"Have we ever talked to you about this?"

"Did you remember wrongly?"

"Most of the evil things in our house are done by the old steward, that bad old man. Although our master Ding's mansion is not good-natured, he hasn't done any big crimes!"

This time.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little angry.

After a long time, these two servants of the Ding family came to clean up Ding Bin?

Waste our time!

Zhu Xiongying also saw Zhu Yuanzhang's impatience, but he always felt that things were not that simple.

Today, this place has been messed up.

It seems that Ding Bin has long been prepared.

It is impossible to take down the Ding family today.

then.

Zhu Xiongying walked to Zhu Yuanzhang's side and whispered into his ear:

"Grandpa, each of these people has their own opinions. It seems that the Ding family sent so many people today just to mess up the situation."

"We are here. If we get angry, we will fall into Ding Bin's scheme."

"Even if you are an emperor, you can't just kill people out of anger. If you don't have evidence, you will be discussed by the world."

I heard Zhu Xiongying say that.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was about to explode, settled down in an instant.

Lao Zhu actually didn't care about his own reputation.

According to the past, if you want to kill someone, then kill it.

But today is different.

He must set a good example for his grandson.

the most important is……

Today, his eldest grandson was also present.

If he killed himself in anger, the world would even discuss his hero!
