Chapter 12: What a Puppet

King Jing Shizi persuaded a few words, and seeing that Miss Ling still insisted on leaving those candidates, she had no choice but to go with her.

The two of them took their chosen candidates and searched around in General Mingwei's mansion.

Li Lingmu, the Mingwei general of the previous dynasty, is said to have fought for many years and snatched a lot of booty from foreigners, plus he greedily bought a lot of military salaries and resold military rations, and his family had countless wealth.

When the emperor of the previous dynasty issued an order to behead, he thought that Jinyiwei would search for countless properties from his mansion.

But the previous dynasty searched those brocade guards countless times, except for the letters of General Mingwei colluding with foreign enemies to rebel, only less than 30,000 taels of silver were found.

The emperor of the previous dynasty thought that Li Lingmu knew that the news of his rebellion had leaked, and transferred the silver and valuable things in advance. After asking to no avail, he could only angrily behead more than 100 members of his family.

However, many people speculate that the property was not transferred, but was hidden too hidden to be found.

If General Mingwei got the news in advance and quietly transferred all the valuable things, there was no reason not to secretly protect his family and transfer, and even his sister-in-law who was a few years old would be beheaded.

Today, the Holy One should think the same way, thinking that all those possessions are still hidden in this mansion.

Xu saw that the treasury had no money, and he almost couldn't even pay his military salary, and more than 100 people in General Mingwei's mansion died, and even those side branches were implicated back then, and they almost died.

Those who did not die have long since disappeared.

Those properties in General Mingwei's mansion, if they were allowed to hide in the mansion, would be a waste.

It is better to find it out and fill the treasury, whether it is used for disaster relief or military pay for those soldiers on the front line who defend their homes and countries, it is a hundred times better than letting it continue to hide in this house.

King Jing and his ten brocade guards almost turned the entire mansion upside down, but except for those bulky and worthless furniture, he didn't even find half of the copper plate.

Ling Chu inherited the original owner's skills in Xuanqing Meditation, and was able to use hexagram techniques to find out the general direction.

She didn't use the system to scan it in the first place, because she didn't want that Lord Ning and those brocade guards to think that she could find the silver without much effort, so that they wouldn't be suspicious.

Second, I don't want King Jing to lose too ugly and hurt his self-esteem.

So at first, she just took out the copper coins and turtle shells, pretended to measure them for a while, and then led people to start searching.

Seeing that he had seen it for half an hour and had not gained anything, Ling Chu took out the copper coin and the turtle shell and measured it again.

However, to her surprise, after three consecutive measurements, the hexagram was displayed as empty.

Ling Chu frowned, could it be that she was not the original owner, and this inherited skill had not been learned, so it was not accurate?

King Jing did not give up, and led people to search for a long time, and finally found more than 100 taels of silver in a remote courtyard.

Seeing that Ling Chu had tested it a few times, his brows were furrowed, and he said curiously, "Why, you haven't calculated this hexagram?" It seems that you have not learned this skill. ”

King Jing was relieved and said proudly, "It seems that you are going to lose to me." ”

Ling Chu glanced at him, he didn't say anything, but secretly said in his heart that it was impossible to lose. Her hole cards are useless, how can she lose.

Holding a copper coin and a turtle shell in his hand, he continued to measure, and secretly opened the system with his consciousness.

However, the next moment, Ling Chu frowned again, and the system showed that General Mingwei's Mansion did not have half a copper plate.

The most valuable ones are the bulky furniture that even the brocade clothes and guards don't want to discard.

However, Ling Chu found that there was a secret passage under a wing of the General's Mansion.

It's not surprising that there are secret passages, and many large families will have them.

But what made Ling Chu feel strange was that she found that the secret passage was quite long, and it not only led directly to the outside of General Mingwei's mansion, but also bypassed the three mansions next to it and connected to another four-hall mansion.

She didn't know whose mansion it was, and it wasn't scanned by the system.

Although Ling Chu thought this secret path was strange, he didn't pay much attention to it.

There was no silver found in this mansion, and she didn't help, and I don't know if the Ning commander would intercede for her.

Ning Chuyi saw that after waiting for so long, Miss Ling and Prince Jing had nothing to gain, so she couldn't help but bring someone to find her. Seeing Ling Chu staring at the hexagram on the ground, his brows furrowed, obviously he had encountered some problem.

"Is there something wrong with this hexagram?"

Ling Chu raised his eyes and glanced at him, "There is no problem with the hexagram, it's just ...... The hexagram shows that there is nothing valuable in this general's mansion. ”

King Jing shook the folding fan, and said in a local way, "Could it be that you haven't learned your hexagrams?" ”

Ling Chu glared at him, and the system showed that there was nothing valuable in the General's Mansion, "Didn't the prince find it either?" ”

King Jing was stunned, although he found more than a hundred taels of silver, but that money could not be General Mingwei's greed for ink, probably someone's private money.

"Tsk, you say, is that Li Lingmu sick in the brain? colluded with foreign enemies and embezzled so much silver, since he received the news and knew that his betrayal of the court had been exposed, he transferred the silver in advance, why didn't he transfer his family?

Even if he died, he also beheaded more than 100 members of his family, and he didn't know that he hid so much silver, ......"

"Uh-uh...... Let go of ......"

King Jing didn't finish his words, and suddenly covered his neck with his hands in pain.

Everyone was instantly stunned, King Jing looked like the prince, how could it look like someone was holding his neck with both hands?

Ning Chuyi felt that something was wrong, and seeing that King Jing was almost out of breath, his body flashed to his side, trying to save him.

However, no matter what he did, it was in vain.

Other brocade guards also surrounded him, King Jing's status is precious, but he can't let him have an accident under everyone's noses.

But so many people were stunned that they couldn't save him. I also watched his whole body suddenly hang in the air, looking pained, and his feet suddenly hanging in the air.

It was like someone was grabbing him by the neck behind and lifting him up in the air.

But the problem is that his back is obviously empty.

This is really a puppet.

Everyone was so shocked by the scene in front of them that the cold hairs on their bodies stood up, and even many people felt that there was a gust of wind around them.

Rao is these brocade guards are well-informed, and they also beat drums in their hearts. He could only step forward with a hard head, punch and kick around King Jing's son, and even slash with a sword.

But apart from the air, he didn't cut anything, and he almost injured other brocade guards.

Ling Chu was originally looking down to pick up the copper coins and turtle shells on the ground, but when she looked up and saw the strange scene in front of her, she quickly formed a seal with her hands, unraveling her yin and yang eyes.

It's indeed a puppet.

An unusually tall and sturdy yin ghost, with red eyes, angrily pinched the neck of King Jing's prince with both hands, lifted him up, and shouted frantically in his mouth, "I am wronged, I did not collude with foreign enemies, I did not covet military salaries, I did not resell military rations, it was all you, you killed my wife and children, you all deserve to die......"

Ling Chu frowned, if she guessed correctly, this yin soul should be Li Lingmu, the Mingwei general of the previous dynasty.
