Chapter 340: Raiding the House
Ning Chuyi was originally not going to take Ling Chu to raid the house, but she was worried that she would be embarrassed if she stayed.
Although he was the commander of the Jinyi Guard before, not all of the Jinyi Guards were his people, and there were many people who did not deal with him, and there were even more battles in the open and in the dark.
It's better to take Ling Chu with her, with him watching, at least no one dares to embarrass her.
Ning Chuyi took people and swept to the door of the mansion of Teng Chong, the left attendant of the household department.
The justice of the Duke of Cao, who passed the decree, has also arrived.
His eyes were very good, and at a glance he saw Ling Chu standing next to the large group of brocade guards.
But he didn't say anything, just glanced at it casually, and walked quickly towards Ning Chuyi.
Gonggong Cao is a human spirit, although Ning Chuyi was demoted, he did not treat him lightly, and still saluted respectfully as before.
Ning Chuyi bowed in return, and the two didn't say much to each other, and walked along the stone steps in front of the door to the gate.
Seeing that those brocade guards were not good, the concierge of Zuo Shilang's Mansion was already frightened, and a little servant rushed in to report the news with a frightened look.
The two porters stepped forward with smiling faces, saluting while thinking about trying to delay time for the people in the squire's mansion.
But Gonggong Cao came with a holy decree, and the porter couldn't stop him at all.
Ning Chuyi took people and drove straight in.
There was chaos in the Squire's Mansion.
Zuo Lang Tengchong was ordered by the emperor yesterday in the household department and was directly arrested and put in prison.
Zuo Shilang's family was panicked and discussed how to rescue him in the main hall.
Who knew that Jin Yiwei would come to the door to raid the house so soon.
Seeing the wolf-like brocade guard, there were timid female children who cried in fright.
The organic spirit wanted to rush back to the inner courtyard to pack up and flee for his life.
Teng Chong's father, mother, wife, and two sisters-in-law, endured the fear of losing a smile on their faces, and stepped forward to greet Ning Chuyi and Cao Gonggong.
Teng Chong's two concubines held their respective sons and daughters tightly, wanting to take them away.
But no matter what the plan was, they were all stopped by Jinyiwei.
For a while, the crying was endless.
Wei Feng took the brocade guard with a black face, and pulled out the sword, only to shock the scene.
But when Gonggong Cao finished reading out the holy decree of copying the house, the crying and begging for mercy rang out again.
Teng Chong's two concubines secretly wanted to leave with the child, but after being stopped, they took off the head and face jewelry on their bodies, wanting to bribe Ning Chuyi and Cao Gonggong, and wanted to let them go
But he was blocked back by Yin Sha.
Seeing that the two were unmoved, the two concubines also wanted Teng Chong's wife to take a leave of absence for Teng Chong.
Mrs. Zuo Shilang was very angry by their behavior, but Teng Chong's wife was very moved.
Thinking that instead of the whole family being arrested and beheaded in the prison, it is better to take two concubines and let them take the children away, at least they can keep a little incense for their son.
The old lady thought very well, but it was destined to be whimsical.
Seeing that the people in the Shilang Mansion were noisy, Wei Feng simply took people and locked them all in the main hall.
A few brocade guards were left to guard, and the rest of the people all followed Ning Chuyi and began to raid the house.
First of all, he searched the treasury in the inner and outer courtyards of the Shilang Mansion and copied out more than 30,000 taels of silver, as well as various antique calligraphy and paintings, ornaments, and so on.
Then they copied all the yards, and in addition to gold and silver, they also found property such as house deeds, land deeds, land properties, and shops.
The dowry of those female dependents, and the head of the jewelry did not escape the catastrophe.
Ling Chu estimated that the gold and silver that were found, as well as the properties on the surface, were worth about 200,000 taels.
It's still far from one hundred and seventy thousand taels.
Ling Chu glanced up at the sky, at this time in the past, she had already eaten lunch and was resting.
But this time, let alone lunch, I don't even have to drink tea.
Not only was the Five Organs Temple purring and protesting, but she was also tired and panicked.
When she was raiding her house just now, Ning Chuyi asked Wei Feng and Yin Sha to take care of her as much as possible.
But Ling Chu saw that everyone else was working, and she couldn't watch a little flag.
But she didn't work stupidly to die, she just picked some light jobs to do.
But that's it, she's tired enough.
Ling Chu secretly sighed, it was the first time to raid the house, and he had no experience.
Next time, you must remember to bring some water and food, otherwise she will not be able to carry this body.
It seems that we have to make a quick decision, and finish the house as soon as possible, so that I can go back and find something to eat.
Ling Chu was thinking about it, but he didn't expect to suddenly smell a fragrance.
I turned around in surprise, and happened to see two brocade guards each holding a large cloth bag and walking over quickly.
It turned out that Ning Chuyi had ordered them to go to the street and buy steamed buns and baked cakes, so that everyone could cushion their stomachs.
When those brocade guards smelled the fragrance, their stomachs began to protest, and they all sped up the movements of their hands.
The seized items were counted, registered, and then packed and sealed, and finally sealed.
Time is tight, everyone cleans their hands and starts eating immediately.
Ling Chu also took a piece of baked cake and chewed it in small bites.
I was feeling thirsty, and suddenly a water bladder came over to me.
Ling Chu looked up in surprise and found that it was Ning Chuyi.
But seeing that there was only one water bladder, Ling Chu didn't answer it.
Xu saw her concerns, and Ning Chuyi said softly, "Take it, I still have it over there." ”
Ling Chu looked in the direction he indicated, and there was a table and a chair not far away, with a few steamed buns on the table, and a bowl of water, which Yin Xu had prepared for Ning Chuyi.
Seeing that Wei Feng and the others were looking over here intentionally or unintentionally, Ling Chu hurriedly thanked Ning Chuyi and took the water bladder.
After filling his stomach, Ling Chu turned on the system.
Then take out the copper coin and turtle shell.
The Jinyi guards present were all Ning Chuyi's people, and they had also seen Ling Chu's skills, so when they saw her start to tell the hexagram, they immediately looked forward to it.
This squire's mansion is not small, and it is too time-consuming to search little by little. But if you have Miss Ling's help, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
The fortune-telling soon came to fruition.
Ling Chu led people to a courtyard, entered the bedroom, and said to Ning Chuyi, "Move this stepping bed." ”
Before Ning Chuyi could speak, Wei Feng, who was following behind, couldn't wait to say to the Jinyi Wei behind, "Brothers, do it." ”
This courtyard is where Zuo Shilang's favorite concubine lives, and the stepping bed and the brocade quilt on the bed are good things.
If the confiscated silver is not enough to repay Teng Chong's embezzlement of 1.07 million taels, all these furniture in his house will be sold and handed over to the state treasury in exchange for silver.
Therefore, this stepping bed cannot be broken.
When the bed is removed, the bluestone floor underneath is revealed.
Ling Chu thought that it was too time-consuming to pry little by little with tools, so he summoned a small hammer and smashed the floor before letting people start digging.
This bedroom is worthy of Teng Chong's favorite concubine, and this digging actually dug out 130,000 taels.
In addition to silver, there are also many gold nuggets.
This money alone is already more than the emperor's private treasury silver, and it is no wonder that the emperor hates corrupt officials.
As soon as he finished counting this batch of silver, Wu Bing suddenly came to the Shilang Mansion with his Jinyi guards.
When he knew that they hadn't copied out half of the silver, Wu Bing suddenly ordered, "Go dig a dung pit." ”
