Chapter 6
Even the well-informed Eunuch Cao was surprised when he saw the gold exposed from the table.

Who would have imagined that the junk he despises so much is actually made of gold inside.

Seeing the golden light, Ling Shangshu closed his eyes and drooped his shoulders, as if all the energy and energy from his body had been sucked away.

After Ling Chu stabilized his body, he pretended to be at a loss and stood aside.

Commander Ning paused his gaze on Ling Chu, and his lowered eyes swept across the dazzling golden table.

With a wave of his hand, the long sword swiped across the other two chairs.

The cut section also revealed a dazzling golden light.

The second lady saw the exposed gold, as if someone was digging her heart with a knife.

The eyes staring at Ling Chu seemed to be poisonous.

Although the other wives were not as obvious as the second lady, they didn't have any good looks towards Ling Chuna at this time.

Could it be that this big girl is crazy? Originally, those Jinyi guards searched for a long time, but they didn't find any money at all.

Fortunately, she had to stand up and help Jin Yiwei to copy his own house.

Now it's all right, all the valuables in the mansion have been confiscated.

Even if they escaped unharmed and were not beheaded by the emperor, what will they eat and drink as a big family?
Sure enough, they are born to punish their relatives, and they will be in bad luck when they return to the house.

Ling Chu ignored everyone's hateful eyes.

Hearing the sound of the danger being lifted in my mind, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ning Chuyi and Eunuch Cao are also in a good mood.

The silver and gold recovered from the red-lacquered pillars and the hut, together with the set of tables and chairs made of gold, totaled more than 300 million taels.

This time, I was finally able to deal with the emperor.

Commander Ning waved to the Jin Yiwei beside him, "Bring everything into the palace."

He said coldly to everyone in the Shangshu Mansion with a blank face, "Take them all to the Ministry of Punishment..."

The second lady was startled when she heard this, she couldn't care less about the gold and silver, and said anxiously, "Master Ning, didn't you say that as long as you hand over the silver, you will let us go?"

Commander Ning gave her a cold look, "I only promised to intercede with the emperor, but I never said that I will let you go now."

The second lady choked, although she was dissatisfied in her heart, she didn't dare to say another word to that cold gaze.

Ling Chu glanced at the second lady, turned around and directed to Ning, "Master Ning, there is an old saying: no one has made mistakes, if you know your mistakes, you can correct them, and there is nothing good about it.

My grandfather must have been confused for a moment to make a big mistake, although beheading us would not be wronged.But in this way, we also lost the opportunity to correct.

It would be better to forgive my grandfather, and I believe that in the future, I will try my best to make up for the mistakes he made.

We are also willing to hand over all our property to compensate for the loss caused by our grandfather.

In addition, if your lord encounters something like today again in the future, Ling Chu will definitely do his best to help you.I just hope that my lord can help me to intercede in front of the emperor..."

After hearing this, the second wife became angry from the bottom of her heart, "Miss, what qualifications do you have to be the master and hand over all the family property..."

Ling Chu glanced at the second lady with eyes like an idiot.

"Second Aunt, so you would rather let your grandparents and the whole family die than hand over the family property?"

The second lady blushed at Ling Chu's blunt words, but she couldn't say a word.

Commander Ning frowned, "Don't you think that Jin Yiwei ransacked the house and left the property to you?"

The emperor has always hated corrupt officials, and Jin Yiwei ransacked the house, in addition to beheading, they also wanted to confiscate all property.

The second wife is still whimsical and wants to keep the family property.

Commander Ning ignored the second lady who had a dark complexion. Instead, he took a deep look at the young lady Ling, but didn't say anything more.

The treasury is empty, and the emperor is short of money.

Miss Ling's ability to find silver with hexagrams is pretty good.

It would be a pity if people were killed.

Seeing that Commander Ning didn't respond to her previous words, Ling Chu felt confused.

She just said what should be said.As for the result, we can only resign ourselves to fate.

Ling Chu didn't want to pay attention to the so-called relatives of Shangshufu's family who had never met.

She is a soul who has traveled through time, and she has no feelings for them.

If it wasn't for her own life and taking over the original owner's body, she wouldn't bother to care about the life and death of everyone in the Shangshu Mansion.

In ancient times, when one person committed a crime, the whole family was implicated.

Ling Shangshu was greedy for 300 million taels of ink. No matter what the reason is, it is an indisputable fact that he is greedy for ink.

Therefore, more than 100 people from all over the house will be sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to wait for the emperor's release.

Jin Yiwei found a rope, tied up the hands of Ling Shangshu and the servant girl, and then strung them into a long team, and escorted them to the Ministry of Punishment.

On the other hand, Ling Chu, perhaps the Commander Ning, did not let her be tied up for the sake of helping her find the money.

Just let her follow up on her own initiative, and don't run away without permission.

Second Madam and the others saw that Jin Yiwei didn't tie up the eldest girl, they were jealous and annoyed.That catastrophe caused such misery to the whole family, but she didn't expect her to act like a normal person.

Ling Chu didn't expect that she would still have preferential treatment. Although she was a little surprised, she never wronged herself.Since Jin Yiwei didn't tie her up, she naturally wouldn't foolishly ask to be treated the same as other people in the Shangshu Mansion.

He even turned a blind eye to the resentful eyes of the second wife and the others.

Just stare at it if you want, anyway, you won't lose a piece of meat.

As long as she doesn't care, no one can hurt her.

After walking out of the gate, everyone saw that the heavy red lacquered gate was closed by Jin Yiwei and affixed a seal. Many people's eyes were red, and even tears were wiped away.

Ling Chu wasn't sad at all, the original owner grew up in Xuanqing Temple and never came back, so naturally he didn't feel much about Shangshufu.

As for her, even though she stayed for one night last night, it is impossible to have any feelings for this mansion in such a short time.

There were quite a few spectators around the gate of Shangshu Mansion, and they couldn't help whispering to each other when they saw the team being escorted out.

The Second Madam and the others have never encountered such a thing, they just feel that they have lost all face in this life, so they can only lower their heads and cover their heads and faces with wide sleeves.

They are all prisoners, so naturally it is impossible to take a car, they can only walk.

Along the way, listening to all kinds of discussions, everyone's face was as pale as a ghost.

Only Ling Chu kept his back straight, without changing his face all the way.

Although it was her grandfather who was greedy for ink, she thought she had done nothing wrong, and she had no guilt in her heart, so naturally she would not feel ashamed.

Finally, through the streets and alleys, I finally arrived at the Ministry of Punishment.

Yet no one feels relieved about places like this.

There is a fear in everyone's heart about the prison of the Ministry of punishment.

But no matter how unwilling they were, they were still put in prison by the jailer.

 New books are not easy, I hope you will support me a lot.
