I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 7 The hall turns dark

Those royal guards took the people to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment and left. The head of the cell asked the jailer in charge below to come over and take everyone in the Shangshu Mansion into the prison.

Although the prison of the Ministry of Punishment is large, it is impossible to cram everyone into one cell and can only be held separately.

Men and women are not in the same prison, and masters and servants are not in the same place.

There were jailers escorting Ling Shangshu and others to the cell where the men were detained. Naturally, the female relatives such as Ling Chu and Tai Fu would be locked up in the women's cell.

Seeing everyone's hesitant steps and slow movements, the jailers couldn't help shouting at everyone, and even insulted them rudely.

One of the jailers took out the key, opened the cell door, frowned and cursed impatiently, "Hurry up, it's useless no matter how slow you delay. Once you enter our cell, don't even think about getting out again."

 “Wait a minute…”

At this time, a jailer from behind with a few pockmarks on his face walked over quickly while shouting, blocking the door of the cell with his tall body.

Although they didn't know what the jailer was going to do, everyone couldn't help but feel even more uneasy when they saw him looking at them greedily.

The pockmarked jailer looked around at the group of female relatives, and then said impatiently, "You should be wise and hand over all the valuable things you have on you, otherwise I will take them myself."

The jailer who opened the door frowned and said hesitantly, "Master Zhao, is this not good for you?"

Mazi Jailer's face darkened, "Ma Dalin, if you can keep your mouth shut, your share of benefits will be inevitable, otherwise..."

The rest of the words were not finished, but Ma Dalin knew what he meant.

Zhao Ping relied on his good relationship with the people behind him to do this kind of bullying of prisoners.

Even though Ma Dalin couldn't bear it, he didn't dare to offend Zhao Ping, otherwise he wouldn't get any good results.

Hearing the words of the jailer surnamed Zhao, the female relatives of Shangshu Mansion were filled with shock and anger. It was like being bullied by a dog.

They were originally the female dependents of high-ranking third-rank officials. In the past, these lowly jailers were not even qualified to see them.

I didn’t expect that even though I was being yelled at and scolded by them, would they still force me to hand over all my belongings?

All the property in the mansion has been confiscated by the Jin Yiwei, and now only the jewelry on his body is left.

 Although I don’t want to in my heart, people have to bow their heads under the eaves.

The Dowager's face was solemn, and she raised her hand to take off the jewelry on her head.

The pock-marked jailer's face flashed with greed, and he quickly reached out and snatched the jewelry from the Madam's hand.

At this moment, he turned sideways and got out of the way of the cell door, waving to the madam casually, "Okay, hurry in."

 Then he turned his head and looked at the eldest lady and the others greedily.

Being stared at by this gaze, everyone felt uneasy, especially when they saw the jailer staring at several girls. In addition to being greedy, his gaze even showed an unabashed and explicit look.

The first lady and the second lady felt their hearts sinking, but they dared not speak out in anger.

They could only quietly block their daughters behind, while quickly taking off all the jewelry on their bodies and handing them to the Mazi jailer.

Ling Chu stood behind and saw the whole scene, but she did not step forward to stop him.

Money is an external possession. As long as you keep your life, if the money is gone, you will still have the opportunity to earn it back in the future.

 Now it is time to waste money and eliminate disasters.

Seeing that no one dared to resist, the jailer Mazi felt proud. In the past, these high-ranking nobles would not even give a single look of charity to people of low status like them.

　　Now I must bow my proud head before him, and obey his words as if they were sacred decrees.

Seeing that the wife gave all her jewelry to the jailer Mazi, the eldest wife, the second wife and several concubines also endured their anger and heartache and handed over all their jewelry.

The Mazi jailer took out a big cloth bag and put all the scraped jewelry into the bag.

 Those who gave the jewelry were put into prison.

 When she reached the sixth girl, she took off the jewelry on her head and handed it to the jailer with trembling hands. I don’t know if she was too nervous or scared, but the sixth girl didn’t notice that there was still a silver hairpin on her head.

The Mazi jailer's eyes circled around her face, he reached out to take the jewelry in her hand and put it into the bag, and then quickly pulled out the silver hairpin on her head.

However, no one would have thought that after the Mazi jailer pulled out the silver hairpin, he would touch the beautiful face of the sixth girl with his hand.

I don’t know if the sixth girl was frightened, but she didn’t resist. She just trembled, with a pale face, and let her tears fall.

 Her biological mother, Aunt Liu, had already entered the cell and followed the second lady.

Ling Chu did not expect that the jailer Mazi was not only greedy for money, but also dared to be indecent.

What was even more unexpected was that when Aunt Liu saw her daughter being bullied, she did not come over to protect the sixth girl. She just stood precariously beside the second lady, not even daring to say a word.

Seeing that no one dared to stand up and stop him, the Mazi jailer suddenly became bolder. He stared at the sixth girl with narrowed eyes, and put his hands around her waist.

Ling Chu, who was standing behind, glared at Miss Six with disgust.

He stretched out his hand, slapped the back of Mazi jailer's hand hard, and quickly tapped the acupuncture points on his hand.

The jailer Mazi was caught off guard, and his hands were naturally slapped off.

He didn't expect that someone would dare to stop him, so he turned his head and glared at him fiercely, but he didn't expect that the girl who hit him turned out to be as beautiful as a fairy.

 Seeing that outstanding face, the evil fire in Mazi's heart not only did not go out, but became even bigger than before.

With that revealing look, Ling Chu almost couldn't help but poke his eyes out.

 The situation was wrong, he couldn't hit anyone, and he felt aggrieved, but Ling Chu would not let such a disgusting thing bully him.

“Mr. Zhao, haven’t you been having bad luck lately? However, I see from your face that your fortune is good today and you will make a fortune. Mr. Zhao must seize this opportunity.

I advise you not to move your hands arbitrarily. If you touch something you shouldn't touch, be careful if your hands become useless, and your fortune today will be at risk. "

Mazi jailer was shocked and confused after hearing Ling Chu's words.

How does this girl know that he has been having bad luck recently?

I don’t know what’s going on, but he has indeed been losing for more than half a month recently, and he hasn’t even won half a copper.

 He collected so much jewelry today. Even though he had to hand over some of it, he could still keep a lot for himself. He was thinking about playing a few more games today and winning back what he had lost previously.

However, the two girls in front of him were really good-looking, which made him feel itchy.

How about he enjoy it first and try his luck later?

Zhao Ping had just made up his mind when he found that the arm he had just been hit on suddenly lost strength and was in unbearable pain.

“What did you do to my hand?” the Mazi jailer asked angrily.

Lingchu said lightly, "Maybe I was not careful just now and I was a little too strong."

After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and quickly tapped his acupuncture point.

 Zhao Ping suddenly felt that his arm was back to normal again.

He didn't expect that the girl in front of him had such a skill. He was silent for a while before asking, "Girl, you know how to read faces. Did you just say that I have good fortune today?"

Lingchu nodded, "Yes, I lived in a Taoist temple since I was a child, so I naturally learned the art of physiognomy. You will indeed make a fortune today."

It was indeed true to get rich, but Ling Chu didn't say a word.

This Zhao Pingyintang has turned black, his fortune is mixed with blood and disaster, and the aura of death lingers all over his body, almost drowning him.
