I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 15: Mistakes in Hexagram Techniques

After Ling Chu entered the Wu Mansion, he did not follow Prince Jing and others to search, but just stood silently near Ning Chuyi.

 Wu Yuanji and the others had not noticed her before, but when they heard what Commander Ning said, they were both surprised and puzzled.

Lingchu nodded in agreement, then glanced at Li Lingmu's ghost calmly, and motioned for him to lead the way to find the things.

Li Lingmu has been waiting for this moment for too long.

After receiving Ling Chu's signal, I felt excited and immediately rushed towards the study of Wu Mansion impatiently.

Lingchu immediately raised his heels.

Ning Chuyi waved his hand and followed with the Jin Yiwei beside him.

Wu Yuanji was shocked and angry when he saw them going to the study, but he calmed down after a while.

After entering the study room, Li Lingmu's ghost floated to the books and said with great excitement, "Miss Ling, that thing is hidden behind the bookshelf. Take down the third travel book from the seventh row on the right side of the bookshelf, counting from right to left."

After taking down the Travel Notes and revealing the wall behind it, Li Lingmu asked Ling Chu to knock on the wall three more times, and finally clapped his hands hard.

 After a slight noise, a hidden grid was revealed on the wall.

However, surprisingly, the dark room was empty.

Prince Jing did not see what he expected and frowned, "Wu Yuanji, where are the things in the secret room?"

Wu Yuanji looked confused and frightened and said, "This..., how can there be a hidden compartment here? This house was not built by Xiaguan, it was bought from Yahang. Xiaguan didn't know that there was a hidden compartment here, so I don’t know what’s inside.”

 But he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and was extremely glad that he had taken the things away first.

 After hearing that the House of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance was ransacked by Jin Yiwei, for some reason, he suddenly remembered what happened back then.

Wu Yuanji was uneasy and worried that something might happen, so he secretly moved the things in the secret compartment to another place.

Li Lingmu’s ghost found out that Wu Yuanji’s letters about liaison with foreign enemies were missing, and he was angry and anxious.

Those letters were related to whether he could get revenge. He had only not stared at Wu Yuanji for three days, so why were those things missing?

Li Lingmu immediately rushed towards Wu Yuanji like a madman, but was bounced away before he even touched the corner of his clothes.

Ling Chu glanced at Wu Yuanji and suddenly said, "Wu Yuanji, aren't you afraid that General Mingwei will seek revenge from you? He is by your side now."

Wu Yuanji looked displeased, "Whose girl are you from? How could you come to my house and talk nonsense? General Mingwei is my benefactor. He has been kind to me, so how could he seek revenge from me for no reason?"

As soon as he finished saying this, Wu Yuanji suddenly felt a chill on his body, and the hair on his back stood up.

 It's just that he was used to being cold-hearted and had been fighting on the battlefield for many years. His hands were stained with blood, so he quickly calmed down. Not to mention that Li Lingmu was already dead, even when he was alive, he was just a reckless man with well-developed limbs.

I haven’t seen him come back to seek revenge on him for so many years, so he might have been out of his mind a long time ago.

This Wu Yuanji is indeed a white-eyed wolf. It seems that he has no guilt at all for harming Li Lingmu's family.

Although Li Lingmu's ghost couldn't touch Wu Yuanji, it still rushed towards him unyieldingly, trying to break through the protection and strangle him to death.

Ling Chu said to him helplessly, "Okay, he has something to protect him. You can't hurt him now. You might as well go and see if the other things are still there."

These words reminded Li Lingmu, and he glared at Wu Yuanji reluctantly with his deep-set eyes, then turned around and drifted away.

Wu Yuanji glanced at Ling Chu inexplicably. Why did he feel that although the girl was speaking in his direction, she was not speaking to him?

Could it be that Li Lingmu's ghost is really beside him?

 But he felt that this was impossible. Lingchu ignored Wu Yuanji's suspicion. Seeing that the secret letters were not hidden in the secret room, she guessed that the property taken from Li Lingmu's home might have been transferred to other places by him.

 Li Lingmu’s ghost may not yet be found.

 The prison of the Ministry of Punishment is not a good place, and Ling Chu does not want to stay there for a long time.

She decided to make a quick decision and finish ransacking Wu Yuanji's house as soon as possible, hoping that the emperor would release them from prison as soon as possible for the sake of money.

 Having wasted half a day today, I still use the system to scan, which is fast and accurate.

Lingchu took out the copper coins and turtle shells from the kit. Ning Chuyi and the others thought she was going to use hexagrams to search, but they didn't know that she secretly used her consciousness to call up the system's virtual screen.

Li Lingmu's ghost floated back at this moment. Without opening a word, just looking at his angry look, one could tell that the stolen property of his family, like the secret letter, had long been transferred by Wu Yuanji.

Ling Chu guessed that Wu Yuanji felt uneasy when he saw that the House of the Minister of Revenue had been raided, so he moved the things to another place to hide them.

But it doesn’t matter, she has a cheat, and she can find it no matter where it is hidden.

Sure enough, when he opened the scan and saw those red dots, Ling Chu raised the corners of his mouth.

Wu Yuanji was originally sure that Jin Yiwei would never find the things he hid, but for some reason, he suddenly felt uneasy.

Especially when he saw Ling Chu leading people towards his concubine's bedroom, he felt anxious and could only wink at the concubine Fang.

Fang immediately chased after her, "You guys stop, that's my boudoir, how could you guys go in..."

Ling Chu heard her voice, but ignored it. He quickly entered the bedroom, walked around the big screen, came to a large cabinet with four doors, and opened the door.

It was filled with all kinds of colorful clothes, and Ms. Fang immediately shouted angrily, "Whose girl are you from? It's okay to hang out with a group of men. I can't control it, but how could you lead someone into my house?" "Bedroom."

Ling Chu glanced at her and said coldly, "Don't you see that they are Jinyi guards who came to raid the house on orders?"

Fang put her hands on her hips and said, "What kind of house are you raiding? My master is very loyal to the court. You have already searched out all my property. Here are my clothes. If they are damaged, can you afford to pay for them?"

Seeing that the girl in front of her was wearing an ordinary dress, Fang curled her lips in disdain. She didn't know where she came from. If her dress was damaged, it was up to her to tear it apart.

Ling Chu ignored it, turned around and said to the Jin Yiwei standing at the door, "Come here and take out the box inside."

Fang was ignored and became even more angry, "Let's see who dares to touch my things..."

Seeing those royal guards walking in, Fang was shocked and angry, "You are not allowed to take it out, the box is just...just some women's clothes..."

 The two Jin Yiwei who walked in looked a little embarrassed when they saw the box of colorful clothes.

 But other places have been searched, and this box must also be searched.

The two of them took the box out. When the lid was opened, it was filled with all kinds of bellybands. The styles were even more revealing than those worn by girls in brothels.

 The two Jin Yiwei looked away with embarrassed expressions.

 It seems that Miss Ling’s hexagram was wrong this time.
