The Ming Dynasty: Starting with the Somersault Cloud, Old Zhu was so envious he cried!

"Oops, sorry, wrong name. I should say, let go of that young woman!"

The little guy is very particular about what he calls girls. A girl is a girl, and a young woman is a young woman. These two are not the same!

Those few people were having a great time at that moment.

Suddenly hearing this angry shout,

The movement suddenly stopped.

They all turned to look at Zhu Ming and Xu Miaoyun.

Upon closer inspection, the speaker turned out to be just a tiny boy, about a meter tall, with only a girl following behind him.

There was no one else.

If we follow the formula of TV dramas...

At this moment, those thugs who looked like bandits,

Upon seeing that there was only a little boy and a girl on the other side, with no guards accompanying them.

At this point, someone should step forward to provoke Zhu Ming and throw in some trash talk.

For example, where did this little brat come from? Is he even weaned yet? How dare he meddle in my business?

Or, to put it another way, "What a pretty little sister! This little brat is your brother, right? If you don't want him to get hurt, you'd better behave and listen to your older brothers later!"

Then, Zhu Ming flew into a rage, pulled out the Bad Guy Commander's token from his pocket, and shouted: Where are the 100,000 Bad Guys!

The next second, an army of 100,000 suddenly appeared from the sky like dumplings being dropped into a pot, surrounding the villains.

The thugs were so frightened that they knelt down and begged for mercy.

On the other side, Zhu Ming's eyes were cold and arrogant, his gaze sweeping over everyone, his mouth twisting into a smirk, his aura exuding full power.

"Sixth Prince, stop grinning like an idiot. They're all watching us."

A whisper abruptly shattered the little guy's reverie.

There are no bad leaders or 100,000 bad guys around right now, and certainly no charismatic crooked-mouthed dragon king.

The scene just now was entirely a figment of the little guy's imagination.

Zhu Ming wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, just about to continue the story of the Crooked-Mouthed Dragon King.

Before he could even utter a word, he froze on the spot.

It was only because those thugs in front of him actually listened to him and obediently released Lin Xiu'e!

Wait a minute, something's not right with how the plot is going!

He hadn't had time to figure out the situation yet.

Lin Xiu'e, who was lying on the ground, suddenly struggled to get up.

She charged towards the group of thugs like a madwoman, her heart-wrenching cries echoing throughout the scene: "Xiaoman! My Xiaoman, give my daughter back!"

However, before she could get close, two thugs reached out and blocked her way, refusing to let her rush over.

At this moment, Zhu Ming noticed that there was a little girl, about five or six years old, tied up in the crowd.

Her hands were tightly bound with hemp rope, and a rag was stuffed into her mouth. Her eyes were red from crying, and she kept twisting and struggling.

This little girl must be Lin Xiu'e's daughter.

Zhu Ming's eyes suddenly lit up. The opportunity had come. He didn't believe that these bastards would actually obey him.

"Hey, are you all deaf? I told you to let go of that young woman, and her daughter too!"

Zhu Ming originally thought that by making such a request,

Those thugs would not tolerate this any longer and were determined to have a head-on confrontation with them.

After all, there were seven people on the other side, while Zhu Ming only had two, both of whom were the weaker ones: a little kid and a young girl.

Such a huge disparity in strength!

If Zhu Ming were replaced by those thugs...

He absolutely could not tolerate it and had to resolutely implement the will of Konoha Village.

However, to his great surprise...

Faced with his reprimand, those people didn't dare utter a sound, obediently releasing Lin Xiu'e and letting her pounce on their daughter.

Zhu Ming was completely dumbfounded.

Seriously? You Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, how can you endure so much?

I've already gone too far with my face showing anger.

You didn't react at all.

If you're all so obedient, how am I supposed to find an excuse to beat you up?

But at that moment,

A young man emerged from the crowd, his face sallow and haggard, with thick dark circles under his eyes.

He walked unsteadily, unable to straighten his back, exuding an air of decay after indulging in extravagance and debauchery.

A person like this is someone who has been indulging in alcohol and women for years, completely ruining their health.

The young man stepped forward, his eyes quickly glancing at Zhu Ming's luxurious robes. A hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes, along with a touch of apprehension.

Then, he bowed and cupped his hands to Zhu Ming, his tone extremely humble: "Young master, I'm afraid you've misunderstood. We are not robbers."

"This woman is my wife, and the little girl is my daughter. I've come to take them home!"

Upon hearing this, the little guy suddenly understood, and as soon as he opened his mouth, birds sang and flowers bloomed.

"Oh, so you're that scumbag who owes gambling debts and even planned to sell your own daughter!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dekai's face instantly turned bright red, a surge of anger rising to his head, and he gritted his teeth so hard they made a grinding sound!

But when he caught a glimpse of Zhu Ming's magnificent brocade robe out of the corner of his eye, he knew that the other party was no ordinary person.

The harsh words that were on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down.

Zhang Dekai suppressed his anger and forced a stiff smile onto his face. He cupped his hands in protest and said, "I suppose my wife must have been lying to you. She was confused and spoke the truth. As a scholar, how could I do something as heinous as selling my own flesh and blood?"

Zhu Ming was truly amazed. As expected of a scholar, he could lie without batting an eye; he probably even believed it himself.

At this moment, Lin Xiu'e hugged her daughter tightly, her eyes red with tears, and shouted at the top of her lungs, "You're talking nonsense! Immortal Master, please don't believe him! I'm not stupid!"

"He owes a huge gambling debt and plans to sell my daughter to pay it off! These people are all thugs sent by the gambling den. Your Excellency, I beg you to do justice for me!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ming turned to look at Zhang Dekai and said calmly, "How do you explain what your wife said?"

Without a word, Zhang Dekai knelt down with a thud, kowtowing repeatedly and crying out for justice, his face full of grievance: "Young master, you have wronged me!"

"Ever since I married her, I have treated her well; it is she who has not fulfilled her duty!"

"I was out studying during the day and she actually hooked up with the butcher next door. My friend caught us doing it and told me, that's how I found out this woman was unfaithful!"

Zhang Dekai, crying with a wronged expression, continued to distort the truth: "Even if she did such a shameless thing, I never thought of abandoning her! I repeatedly tried to persuade her to turn back. As long as she broke off all ties with that butcher Wang, I would still treat her well and live a good life with her!"

"But instead of repenting, she still holds a grudge against me. I'm just short of money right now and want to temporarily send the child to live with someone else."

"She exaggerated and conspired with outsiders to slander me for gambling and selling my daughter; she's utterly heartless!"

Lin Xiu'e, standing to the side, was trembling with anger. In all her years of life, she had never seen such a shameless person.

How could she have been so blind?

That's why she would fall for such a heartless and deceitful man!

Oh, I almost forgot!

She was sold to someone by her father for ten taels of silver.

I knew it! No matter how bad my taste is, I, Lin Xiu'e, would never despise such a shameless scoundrel!
