In ancient times, I made a fortune by copying my family

Seeing that Ling Chu had been staring at the painting, Prince Jing thought that there would be a hidden compartment on the wall behind the painting, and the evidence would be hidden in the hidden compartment.

Unexpectedly, after the painting was taken down, there was no hidden space on the wall.

Prince Jing looked at the wall with doubts.

Those students who followed to watch the fun also showed disappointment.

Lu Mingliu originally felt tense when he saw Prince Jing heading towards the painting, but now he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, before he could let out his breath, he saw Ling Chu raised his foot and walked towards Prince Jing's son.

Lu Mingliu's heart suddenly rose again.

He wanted to step forward to stop him, but he was also worried that if Miss Ling didn't find anything unusual, if he stepped forward to stop her, it might arouse her suspicion.

Seeing that Prince Jing was still groping on the wall, wanting to see if there was any mechanism that could open the hidden compartment, the corners of Ling Chu's mouth twitched.

"Don't look for it, there are no hidden spaces on the wall."

Prince Jing's son looked disappointed, "Why not, it shouldn't be."

Ling Chu helplessly supported his forehead, "Give me the painting."

Prince Jing's son was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.

Could there be evidence hidden in the painting?

Prince Jing couldn't help holding up the painting in his hand, looked at it up and down, back and forth, and found that it was just an ordinary landscape painting.

A thin sheet, clear at a glance.

Prince Jing's son was puzzled, there was nothing hidden in this painting.

Seeing Ling Chu reaching out to take the painting, Lu Mingliu clenched his fists under the sleeves suddenly.

"Miss Ling, what's unusual about this painting?"

Ling Chu ignored Crown Prince Jing, picked up the scroll and looked at it twice, held the shaft with his left hand, stretched out his right hand to one end of the shaft and twisted it a few times, and pulled out the head of the shaft.

He dug his fingers into the shaft and quickly pulled out a roll of paper.

Prince Jing slapped his forehead.

He never thought that the shaft was hollow.

"What is this, evidence?" Seeing the scroll Ling Chu took out, Prince Jing looked expectant.

Ling Chu glanced at him, and simply handed him the roll of paper in his hand.

Prince Jing reached out to take it, and couldn't wait to unroll the roll.

"What is a bank note?"

Those students who followed to watch the fun also looked disappointed.

Lu Mingliu walked over with a few steps, his face was full of anger, "Miss Ling, you don't think you can slander me as a counterfeit with just a few bank notes?"

Ling Chu said lightly, "What's the rush?"

In Lu Mingliu's anger, Ling Chu unhurriedly put back the plug of the scroll in his hand, then turned the picture scroll around, and then opened the plug of the lower scroll.

Pull out a roll of paper from inside.

Prince Jing took it over, opened it, and found several banknotes.

Lu Mingliu said with a cold face, "I said, I'm innocent. Did you come to my house to search for my bank notes?"

Prince Jing squinted at him, and said with disdain, "Don't worry, it's just 200 taels of silver, and even if you give it to me, this prince will not even look down on you."

Lu Mingliu felt annoyed in his heart, Prince Jing's mansion was rich in wealth, and Prince Jing's son didn't pay attention to this silver ticket, but it was he who worked hard to get it.

Ling Chu handed the scroll to Prince Jing, motioned him to hang it on the wall, then walked to the bookshelf.

Seeing her staring at the bookshelf, Lu Mingliu's eyelids twitched again.

Ling Chu ignored him, and raised his hand to reach the top of the bookshelf.

Prince Jing's son happened to come over, and immediately said, "Miss Ling, I'll come."

Ling Chu stepped aside and asked him to take down the fifth travel book on the left side of the top row.

After King Jing's son got the travel notes, he saw that the book was covered with dust, so he shook his hands casually.

But I didn't expect that several bank notes were brushed out from the book.

Prince Jing's son was taken aback for a moment, and when he bent down to pick it up and looked at it, he pouted, "Why is it a bank note again?"

The people present couldn't help but look sideways, there were more than 800 taels of silver in the travel notes.

Lu Mingliu's face was gloomy, he was not nervous now.

So what if the banknotes he hid were found, could this banknote still convict him?

"Miss Ling, it's very nice, what are you looking for in my bank notes? I'm studying in the capital, and these are the fees my parents paid for my education."

Ge Shanchang and Jiang Fuzi also looked at Ling Chu with puzzled faces, wondering why she wanted to search out his bank notes.

Ling Chu stared at Lu Mingliu with dark eyes, "These bank notes are really given by your parents?"

Lu Mingliu was chilled by her gaze, but still bit the bullet and said, "That's right, it was indeed given by my parents."

Ling Chu glanced at him quietly, but turned around and squatted down in front of the bookshelf without saying a word.

The lower part of the bookshelf is a cabinet. Ling Chu opened the door and took out the books inside.

Lu Mingliu was suddenly so nervous that his palms started to sweat, his heart was beating non-stop, and he stepped forward with a dark face, "There are only a few books in this cabinet, but there are no bank notes."

Prince Jing saw that he wanted to stop him, so he immediately blocked him, "Since there is no bank note, why are you so nervous?"

Ge Shanchang and the others looked at Lu Mingliu suspiciously, even if they had bank notes, there was no need to be nervous, not to mention Prince Jing's son looked down on his little family wealth, and Miss Ling didn't look like a greedy person.

Lu Mingliu saw that everyone was looking at him in confusion, and he thought something was wrong in his heart, and his reaction made them suspicious.

"Prince Jing, I would like to borrow your dagger." While they were talking, Ling Chu had already emptied all the books in the cabinet.

Prince Jing was surprised, how did she know he had a dagger?

But when he asked this, Prince Jing pulled out the dagger from his body, but didn't give it to Ling Chu, "Do you want to dismantle the cabinet? I'll do it for you."

Seeing that he was eager to try, Ling Chu didn't compete with him, stepped aside, pointed to the bottom of the cabinet and said, "Pry it open."

Lu Mingliu clenched his fists tightly, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he immediately walked out without a trace.

He just took two steps, but Ling Chu's voice, which seemed to be a smile but not a smile, came from behind, "Lu Mingliu, where are you going?"

Seeing Chief Ge Shan, they all turned their heads and frowned at him.

Lu Mingliu felt annoyed in his heart, but he could only say innocently, "I just saw Mr. Shanchang, and there are so many classmates here, so I plan to boil water and make tea."

Prince Jing was disdainful in his heart, thinking they were stupid, it was obvious that there were hidden things hidden in the cabinet, and seeing that the matter was about to be revealed, he wanted to take the opportunity to escape.

This study is not big, Prince Jing's guards are all in the yard, Prince Jing raised his voice and said to them, "Give him a good look."

With the guards around, there was no need to worry about Lu Mingliu's escape.

Prince Jing's son guessed that there might be evidence hidden in the cabinet, so he couldn't help but get excited, and pried open the interlayer of the cabinet.

"What is this?" Seeing the small notebook hidden in the mezzanine, everyone was puzzled again.

Prince Jing took out his book and opened it, only to find that it was just an account book.

But Lu Mingliu turned pale when he saw the account book.
