Chapter 6: Imprisonment
Rao is a well-informed father-in-law Cao, and when he saw the gold exposed on the table, he was also surprised.
Who would have thought that the rags that he disliked so much would be made of gold inside.
When Ling Shangshu saw the golden light, his eyes closed, and his shoulders drooped, as if all the energy in his body had been drained away at once.
After Ling Chu stabilized his body, he stood aside pretending to be at a loss.
Commander Ning's gaze paused on Ling Chu, and his eyes swept over the golden table.
With a wave of his hand, the sword slashed at 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 into her heart with a knife.
Staring at Ling Chu's eyes, it was even more like a quenched poison.
Although the other ladies were not as obvious as the second lady, they did not have the slightest good face towards Ling Chu at this time.
This big girl, is she crazy, originally those brocade guards searched for a long time, but they didn't find the silver at all.
It's good for her, she has to stand up and help Jinyiwei copy her own house.
Now it's okay, all the valuable things in the house have been confiscated.
Even if they can escape and are not beheaded by the emperor, what will they eat and drink in the future?
Sure enough, they were born to punish the six relatives, and this time they went home, they were unlucky.
Ling Chu ignored everyone's resentful eyes.
Hearing the sound of danger being lifted in my head, I finally breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.
Ning Chuyi and Father-in-law Cao were also in a good mood.
The silver and gold found from the red-lacquered pillars and thatched houses, plus the set of tables and chairs made of gold, the total price has exceeded three million taels.
This time, I was finally able to give an errand to the emperor.
Commander Ning waved to the Jinyi guard beside him, "Carry everything into the palace." ”
He said coldly to the people of Shangshu Mansion with an expressionless face, "Escort them all to the Criminal Department......
When the second lady heard this, she was shocked in her heart, and she couldn't care about the gold and silver that she felt sorry for, and said urgently, "Lord Ning, didn't you say that as long as you hand over the silver, you will let us go?" ”
Commander Ning glanced at her coldly, "This official only promised to intercede with the emperor, but he didn't say that he would let you go now." ”
The second lady choked, although she was dissatisfied in her heart, but in the face of that cold gaze, she didn't dare to say another word after all.
Ling Chu glanced at the second lady, turned to Ning and commanded, "Lord Ning, there is an old saying: people who have no fault, know their mistakes and can change them, and they are very good."
My grandfather must have been foolish enough to make a big mistake, even if it wasn't wrong to behead us. But in doing so, we also lose the opportunity to make amends.
It is better to open up to my grandfather, and I believe that I will try my best to make up for his mistakes in the future.
We are also willing to hand over all the family property to compensate for the loss caused by our grandfather.
In addition, if an adult encounters something like today in the future, Ling Chu will definitely do his best to help the adult. I just ask that the adults can help me beg for mercy in front of the emperor......"
When the second lady heard this, she was angry, "Big girl, what qualifications do you have to be the master and hand over all the family property......
Ling Chu glanced at the second lady with the eyes of an idiot.
"Second aunt, in this way, would you rather let your grandfather and grandmother and this big family die than hand over the family property?"
The second lady was so frightened by Ling Chu's straightforward words that her face turned red, but she couldn't say half a sentence.
Commander Ning frowned, "Do you think that Jinyi Wei has raided the family, and he can still leave the family property to you?" ”
The emperor has always hated corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the brocade guards raided the house, in addition to beheading, but also to confiscate all family property.
The second lady was still whimsical and wanted to leave the family property.
Commander Ning ignored the second lady with a blue face, but instead took a deep look at the Ling eldest girl, but didn't say anything more.
The treasury was empty, and the emperor was short of silver.
Miss Ling's ability to find silver with hexagram techniques is not bad.
It would be a pity to kill someone.
Ling Chu saw that the Ning Commander did not respond to her previous words, and he was at a loss in his heart.
Just what she had to say, she said. As for the outcome, we can only leave it to fate.
Ling Chu didn't want to pay attention to the so-called relatives of Shangshu Mansion who had never met.
She is a soul that has traveled through time, and has no feelings for them.
If it weren't for her own life, and she inherited the body of the original owner, she wouldn't have bothered to care about the life and death of everyone in Shangshufu.
In ancient times, one person committed a crime, and a large family was implicated.
Ling Shangshu was greedy for three million taels, no matter what the reason, it is an indisputable fact that he was greedy for ink.
Therefore, more than 100 people in the whole house were all escorted to the prison of the Criminal Department and waited for the emperor's fate.
A brocade guard found a rope, tied up the hands of Ling Shangshu and down to the maid, and then strung them into a long line and escorted them to the criminal department.
However, Ling Chu, Xu is commander of Ning did not let people tie her up for the sake of her helping to find out the silver.
Just let her take the initiative to follow, and don't run away without permission.
The second lady saw that Jinyiwei did not tie up the eldest girl, and they were jealous and annoyed in their hearts. That disaster star caused such a bad thing to a large family, but I didn't expect her to be like a nobody.
Ling Chu didn't expect that she still had preferential treatment, although she was a little surprised in her heart, she never wronged herself. Since Jin Yiwei didn't tie her up, she naturally wouldn't stupidly ask for the same treatment as the rest of Shangshufu.
turned a blind eye to the second lady's resentful gaze.
If you want to stare at it, you won't lose a piece of meat anyway.
As long as she doesn't care, no one can hurt her.
After walking out of the gate, everyone watched the heavy red lacquer gate being closed by the brocade guards and affixed with seals, and many people had red eyes and even wiped tears.
Ling Chu was not the slightest bit sad, the original owner grew up in Xuanqingguan since he was a child, and he never came back, so he naturally had no feelings for Shangshu Mansion.
As for her, although she stayed for one night last night, it is impossible to have any feelings for this mansion at such a short time.
There were many people watching the excitement outside the gate of Shangshu Mansion, and when they saw the team being escorted out, they couldn't help but turn their heads one after another.
The second lady had never encountered such a thing, and they only felt that their faces had been lost in this life, so they could only hang their heads and cover their heads with wide sleeves.
They were all prisoners, so naturally it was impossible for them to take a car, but only on foot.
Along the way, listening to all kinds of discussions, all of them were as pale as ghosts.
Only Ling Chu kept his back straight, and his face did not change all the way.
Although it was her grandfather who was greedy for ink, she thought that she had done nothing wrong, and she had no shame in her heart, so she naturally did not feel ashamed.
Finally, through the streets and alleys, I finally arrived at the Criminal Department.
However, no one can breathe a sigh of relief at such a place.
For the prison of the Criminal Department, everyone has a fear in their hearts.
But no matter how unwilling they were, they were still put in prison by the jailers.
