I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 13 Wolf Ambition

Seeing that Prince Jing was about to be strangled to death, Ling Chu couldn't think too much.

Hurrying forward, he took out a piece of talisman and recited a spell. While the ghost's attention was on Prince Jing, he quickly flicked it, and the ignited talisman instantly rushed towards his arms.

The ghost was unprepared and his arms were burned by the talisman. He let go of his hands in pain.

Ling Chu took the opportunity to grab Prince Jing's arm, pulled him over, and quickly pushed him towards Commander Ning.

The ghost glared at Ling Chu angrily, and instinctively wanted to catch her, but she quickly took out a piece of talisman and could only yell at her angrily, "Who are you? How dare you ruin my business? You deserve to die too..."

Others didn't have yin and yang eyes, so naturally they couldn't see the ghost. They saw Miss Ling saying to the empty air, "Calm down. Although Prince Jing offended you, he didn't mean to do it. Please don't." Blame.”

Prince Jing's son escaped from death and was protected by Ning Chuyi. He was busy breathing fresh air at the moment. The other Jin Yiwei didn't know who Miss Ling was talking to. It was clear that there was no one in the direction she was facing.

 Could it be a ghost?

The hairs on everyone's body stood up one after another. No wonder it felt like there was a gloomy wind here and the surroundings were filled with gloomy air.

The evil spirit in this ghost is very strong. Ling Chu's soul and body have not yet adjusted well, causing his own soul to be unstable. He does not dare to be careless for fear of irritating him.

He could only comfort him with a gentle voice, "Are you Mingwei General Li Lingmu?"

“That’s right, I won’t change my name when I’m in office, and I won’t change my surname when I sit down.”

"Listen to what you just said...were you framed to death by others? Maybe I can help you..."

The ghost was stunned and said doubtfully, "Can you really help me?"

Seeing how young the girl in front of him was, he shook his head and said, "No way, you lied to me. You are a little girl and can't even see the emperor, how can you help me."

I didn’t expect that this ghost had been dead for such a long time and had such a strong evil spirit. It was not controlled by anger and could still maintain its sanity.

"Although I can't see the emperor, that one is the commander of the Jinyi Guards," Ling Chu motioned the ghost to look at Ning Chuyi, then pointed behind him, "that one is Prince Jing, they can both see him." Your Majesty. If you have any grievances, I can ask them to help you convey the whole story to the Emperor."

The ghost saw that the two men were dressed in extraordinary clothes, so they must be of high status. But his matter is not a trivial matter. Are these two people really willing to help him redress his grievances?

Since she has encountered the ghost of Li Lingmu, she can only try her best to help him fulfill his wish, so that he can accumulate merit and extend his life.

Second, the silver has not been found yet. Naturally, no one knows where it is hidden better than General Mingwei.

Lingchu thought that if he could help him, he might be able to let him speak out. Anyway, now that he was a ghost, he wouldn't be able to use the money.

Helping this Li Lingmu is equivalent to helping herself. Ling Chu cannot ignore it both in public and private matters.

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Ling Chu had no choice but to say, "Anyway, you are like this now. Only I can see you. If you miss this opportunity, no one can help you."

This girl is right. He has been dead for so many years, and indeed she is the only one who can see him. He had thought of countless ways before, but he couldn't do any harm to the enemy.

Li Lingmu could feel that his soul was getting weaker and weaker, and he didn't know how long he could hold on.

If he doesn't seize this opportunity, and his enemy is still alive and well after his soul is gone, then he really won't be willing to die.

Although Ning Chuyi couldn't see the ghost, from Miss Ling's words, she could also learn that the death of General Mingwei back then might have a hidden meaning.

 Seeing that Miss Ling's back was tense all the time, he guessed that she might not have much confidence in dealing with the puppet soul.

Even though Ning Chuyi has great martial arts skills, there is nothing he can do against these invisible and intangible ghosts. After all, ordinary swords cannot hurt them at all. Although he was not afraid of death, he could not let anything happen to Prince Jing under his nose.

Since they have encountered him, help him if you can. If you can get his possession of silver, that would be great.

The emperor was already very dissatisfied with the late emperor who listened to the slander and framed Zhongliang, and I believe the emperor would not mind rehabilitating General Mingwei.

Ning Chuyi couldn't see the ghost and said directly to the position in front of Ling Chu, "General Li, as long as you don't hurt others at will, I can help you report your grievances to the emperor.

 After the Emperor’s verification, if you were indeed framed, the Emperor will definitely vindicate you. "

Prince Jing escaped death and finally took a breath. When he saw Miss Ling and Brother Ning talking to the air, his heart went crazy.

 What just happened really scared him a little. But it was indeed his fault to speak ill of others behind their backs, so he couldn't blame them for getting angry and attacking him.

If General Mingwei was indeed framed, then the more than 100 lives in his family must have died unjustly.

Prince Jing poked his head out from behind Ning Chuyi and said cautiously, "Well, General Li, as long as you don't hurt us anymore, I can promise you to tell the emperor about your matter and let him help you rehabilitate."

After listening to what Ning Chuyi and Prince Jing said, Li Lingmu finally made up his mind and told the whole story.

Li Lingmu was indeed framed. The person who framed him was his most trusted lieutenant Wu Yuanji.

Wu Yuanji had followed him for many years. He was originally a poor low-level soldier. He saw that the other party was quite clever and had a good eye for things, so he cultivated him a lot and supported him all the way over the years.

Wu Yuanji had been by his side for many years, and he seemed to be a man who repaid his kindness, so he won his trust, and the two had always had a good relationship.

However, what he didn't know was that Wu Yuanji became ambitious as he was promoted. He was secretly dissatisfied with being subordinate to his official position and had been coveting the military power in his hands.

Not only did he secretly collude with foreign enemies and leak the marching plan, causing him to lose the battle. He also reported to the late emperor in private, saying that he was greedy for Mo's military pay, had liaison with foreign enemies, and was plotting rebellion.

The late emperor believed it and ordered him to be escorted back to Beijing to await trial. He even handed over all the military power in his hands to Wu Yuanji.

Although Li Lingmu was not greedy for military pay, he had fought for many years and gained a lot of spoils from foreigners. Moreover, the wife at home is good at running a business. Over the years, she has accumulated a lot of property, and the house is quite wealthy.

　　After he was escorted back to Beijing, Jin Yiwei only found 30,000 taels of silver from his house, but they found letters from the study that were related to foreign enemies.

Although Li Lingmu didn't know why Jinyiwei only found 30,000 taels of silver, he had always been loyal to the court and had never colluded with foreigners.

 So he refused to plead guilty to the crime of treason, and was eventually beheaded by the late emperor's order.

It was only after his death that he discovered that Wu Yuanji had coveted the military power in his hands, so he framed him for colluding with foreign enemies and plotting rebellion. She had already coveted the property in his mansion for a long time, so she secretly bought a four-story house near his mansion and secretly dug a tunnel leading directly to his mansion.

　　When he was escorted back to Beijing for interrogation by the late emperor's order and his family was sent to prison, he passed through the tunnel first and secretly transferred his property to his house.

The so-called letter about colluding with foreign enemies was also written by Wu Yuanji in imitation of his handwriting.

Because the entrance to the tunnel was hidden, and after the property was transferred, the tunnel entrance was secretly sealed by Wu Yuanji, so it was never discovered.
