MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 10 How about a bet

Chapter 10 How about a gamble

Ling Chu choked and almost couldn't help but roll his eyes at this murderous god.

 She has been on the road since she traveled through time, and finally returned to Shangshu's Mansion. Before she could take a breath, she was caught by him and thrown into this prison.

 In the past few days, she has been trying to adapt to this new body. On the one hand, she is worried that her soul will leave the body and die. On the other hand, she is also worried that the puppet soul will see that there is something wrong with her soul and want to **** this body from her.

It was hard to eat and sleep well. It was not easy for her to seize the opportunity and ask the jailer to get her some food. How easy was it for her!

 She has been in such a miserable state, there is no need to be so sarcastic about her.

Humbling in my heart, I dare not show it on my face.

Lingchu guessed that the reason for the murderous god's coming was related to the emperor's judgment on the Shangshu Mansion, so he must not be offended.

He rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Master Ning is joking. You have a distinguished status. You have never tasted any delicacies from the mountains and seas. How can you think so highly of my trivial food?"

Having said this, he quickly changed the subject without waiting for him to answer, "I wonder if Mr. Ning is here and has any instructions. If it is useful, feel free to give them."

They were all in jail waiting to be executed. In order to save her life, Ling Chu decided to take the initiative and make the other party feel that there was some value in keeping her life.

"I have something to do, but since Miss Ling is having a meal, I'd better wait until you finish."

Ling Chu's eyes lit up. It would be great if he had something to do. There was something useful about her, which proved that she was worth using.

I was afraid that people felt that it was useless to keep her little life. She refused to help him in front of the emperor and let the emperor freely wipe her at will.

Ling Chusheng was afraid that the other party would throw away his hands and leave, so he quickly said with a smile, "I'm full. If you need anything, just ask me."

She did something for Mr. Ning, so he had to ask the emperor to be lenient and spare her life, right?

Ling Chu's thoughts were not hidden, it was written clearly on his face, "My help is not in vain. Remember to ask the emperor for mercy."

Ning Chuyi could naturally see the thoughts in his heart so obviously on his face.

I thought to myself, this girl Ling really knows how to climb up the pole!

However, he does have a use for her.

 “If Miss Ling doesn’t mind, why don’t we talk in another place?”

Lingchu felt happy and said hurriedly, "I don't mind. I don't mind."

She wished she could leave here as soon as possible. This cell was dark and damp, and all kinds of unpleasant smells were mixed in. She didn't vomit to him, which was considered a good endurance.

Ning Chuyi signaled the jailer behind him to open the cell door, and Ling Chu stepped out of the cell in two or three steps.

Ma Dalin then locked the cell door again.

Seeing that Ling Chu was about to leave with Commander Ning, the eldest lady hurriedly shouted, "Sister Chu, your third sister is weak and may not be able to bear the pain in prison. Can you take her out?"

At this time, the second lady ignored Ling Chu and said hurriedly, "Sister, your grandmother is old and may not be able to survive. Can you take your grandmother out? You have something to do and don't have time to take care of you. Grandma, I can go out and take care of you..."

After hearing what these two people said, Ling Chu almost couldn't help but roll his eyes at them.

She looked guilty and at a loss as she said, "Second Aunt, aren't you worried that you will be killed by me if you are with me?

Now that I have left, if you stay here, you don’t have to worry about being killed by me anymore. Wouldn’t everyone be happy in this way? "

 The second lady almost vomited blood, everyone was so happy. Damn it, who wants to stay in this miserable place where you can't get in and out, but you can only wait to be beheaded!

This big girl must have done it on purpose. She is indeed a heartless white-eyed wolf.

Lingchu saw that her face turned pale with anger and the corners of her mouth curled up.

She just likes to watch the other person jumping up and down with anger, but also feeling helpless and aggrieved. Ning Chuyi frowned and said coldly, "Do you think that the emperor's imperial edict is child's play? You can enter and exit the prison of the Ministry of Punishment whenever you want, and you can get out whenever you want?"

 As for Ling Chu, the second lady dared to shout at her and insult her at will. But she didn't dare to say a word to the commander of the Jinyi Guards, whom everyone avoided.

　　　Even though the second lady was unwilling to do anything about it, there was nothing she could do against Ling Chu.

Ning Chuyi turned around and walked out regardless of what the second lady thought. Ling Chu also quickly followed her.

The eldest lady looked at her back, pursed her lips tightly, and her eyes were dark and unclear. No one knew what she was thinking.

After leaving the prison, he went to the flower hall in front. After sitting down and drinking a few sips of tea, Ning Chuyi finally revealed his intention.

“Miss Ling, I need you to come with me now. There is a sum of money and I need your help to find it.”

Ling Chu originally wanted to ask him how the emperor judged the people in Shangshu Mansion. But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. Forget it, let’s wait until we can help before asking.

"Yes, but I have lived in the prison for a day and a night. I am unkempt and my energy is a little low. Sir, can you let me go to a clothing store to buy some clothes first, and then I can take a shower and change clothes before I go with you? In case I use the hexagram technique and make mistakes. , It’s my fault.”

This girl really doesn't want to suffer any losses. She will climb up the pole whenever she finds an opportunity.

However, Ning Chuyi saw that her face was pale and her clothes were wrinkled, and she did look a little depressed, so she did not refuse her small request.

When passing by a clothing store on the road, Ling Chu went in and chose a pair of clean clothes. After consulting with the proprietress of the clothing store, he went into the backyard to wash up briefly, put on the newly bought clothes, and then walked out.

Ning Chuyi glanced casually, said nothing, turned around and rode away, followed by two groups of Jin Yiwei with embroidered spring knives on their waists.

Lingchu got on his horse and followed.

 Half an hour later, a group of people stopped outside a large house.

As soon as I got off my horse, I heard the sound of horse hooves from the other end of the long street.

Everyone turned around and saw a handsome-looking man in white robes riding his horse towards this side, followed by several guards.

 The person who saw him was Prince Jing, and the guards in royal robes looked as if they were not surprised.

This prince not only has a good friendship with their elders, but he also likes to join in the fun.

As he approached, Prince Jing quickly dismounted his horse and walked over quickly, "Fortunately, I caught up. Brother Ning, why didn't you call me to join you when you came to hunt for treasure?"

Even though Crown Prince Jing was complaining, he seemed to be on good terms with Commander Ning.

Ning Chuyi glanced at him, "Why are you here?"

 “Of course I’m here to hunt for treasure.”

Seeing Ling Chu, Prince Jing looked curious, "Hey, why is there a girl here? Could it be that you are the eldest granddaughter of Ling Shangshu who had his house confiscated?"

Ling Chu glanced at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched again and again. Is she already so famous in Kyoto?

 But she really doesn’t want this kind of fame.

 Copying it yourself is not something worth showing off.

If it wasn't to save one's life, who would be willing to do such a thing.

Ling Chu didn't say anything, but Prince Jing said with a familiar face, "Miss Ling, how about we make a bet?"
