"Someone is coming!"

After the man left, Magistrate Guo immediately called his confidants.

"Go, send someone to keep an eye on him."

After he finished giving these instructions, an old man holding a feather fan came out from behind the bookshelf in the study.

When County Magistrate Guo saw this, his face turned ugly and he said, "Master also heard this, what do you think we should do?"

The master shook his feather fan and said, "Let's make peace with him first, stabilize him, and then find out the person behind him..."

"I know that." Magistrate Guo shook his head, "I mean is there any other solution? I wanted to delay it, but he forced us to take action now..."

"Sir, you are really a fan of the authorities!" The master shook his head and said, "We can seal the city first. This does not count as a breach of contract. Moreover, this person cannot leave, so he can be left to our disposal."

Magistrate Guo's eyes lit up, yes, he only said that he wanted them to issue a wanted warrant to arrest the woman.

But it didn't say whether that person was really in the county. When the time came, he would just seal it off and not be able to get in or out.

As for the wanted order, he would not place it so easily. After all, he did not know the identity of the woman. If she had a stronger background than him, wouldn't she be used as a gunman?

But if he is indifferent, that person may make the evidence of his corruption public, but his lockdown is a good excuse.

As long as the city is closed and there is no way in or out, you can slowly search for people in the county. If you directly issue a wanted warrant, people may be frightened into hiding.

Of course, they had other plans, but they didn't say it out loud. They just looked at each other and understood.

Chen Chuxue frowned. It seemed that she came late and didn't hear who they wanted.

But, I know one big thing.

That means the city is going to be closed down.

So she must leave as soon as possible.

I originally thought of waiting until dark before taking action, but now it seems that I can only wait until Magistrate Guo leaves before taking action.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for a Yamen servant to come looking for him, and Magistrate Guo and Master quickly left the study.

It is very difficult to enter the county government office during the day, even in the back house, but Chen Chuxue still wants to give it a try.

However, she will not retain her original appearance.

After putting on makeup, you are completely alone.

In particular, she waited for a long time until a maid came out, then struck up a conversation with her, and then gave her a tael of silver and asked her to help.

Money can make the world go round.

The maid naturally agreed and followed Chen Chuxue to an inn. Chen Chuxue made her drink sleeping pills, and then she fell asleep.

Then Chen Chuxue borrowed her clothes and put on makeup to look like her.

This is actually a bit difficult. No matter how magical the makeup is, it is impossible to turn her into a maid exactly like a disguise.

So, she took advantage of it.

Hurrying to the county government house, she took a deep breath and ran in with her head lowered.

"Hey, why did Hongzhi come back so soon?"

At the door, the two concierges saw Hongzhi and quickly smiled and said, obviously because Hongzhi looks pretty good, it is very popular.

Chen Chuxue secretly thought that it was not good, she would have chosen an inconspicuous little maid if she had known.

She thought so in her heart, but she didn't show any expression on her face, but she hurriedly ran inside, as if something was urgent.

The concierge was stunned, but didn't say anything more. He just thought she was in a hurry.

Entering the back house, it was very big inside. Fortunately, she knew which way was closest through VR, so she quickly ran towards the study.

Bang!

Suddenly, maybe because she was running so fast, she bumped into someone at the corner, and the person fell to the ground with an ouch. "Excuse me!"

Chen Chuxue apologized subconsciously, and then saw the woman in a green dress falling to the ground clutching her chest.

"Who doesn't have eyes, even the eldest lady dares to attack!"

The two maids beside the woman quickly helped her up, and then scolded Chen Chuxue.

"Hongzhi?"

The two maids were stunned when they saw Chen Chuxue, and then continued to curse, "Why are you running so fast? Didn't you see the eldest lady here?"

Obviously, this woman is the daughter of County Magistrate Guo.

Chen Chuxue's heart skipped a beat. She didn't expect to meet them here, and it seemed that these people were "his" acquaintances.

Sure enough, sometimes, the more anxious you are, the less likely you are to get things done.

And the more you want to finish something quickly, the more twists and turns you will have.

"Okay." Miss Guo shook her head, and then looked at Hongzhi, "Hongzhi, you came back so soon, didn't I ask you to buy a storybook?"

Since she had nothing to do, she could only read the storybook at home, and her father wouldn't let her go out, so she had to let Hongzhi go.

Chen Chuxue lowered her head, then slowly raised it a little, then pointed at her face and cried, "Girl, I..."

Miss Guo and others were shocked when they saw many red spots on Chen Chuxue's face.

Especially those maids, who quickly pulled Miss Guo back and glared at Hongzhi, "Hongzhi, why don't you step back quickly? Do you want to infect the lady?"

In fact, they had seen this disease before and it was still contagious, so they subconsciously distanced themselves from her.

More importantly, they are in competition with Hongzhi.

As a young lady's maid, apart from a few personal maids, Hongzhi was the most favored, otherwise she wouldn't have been given the task of buying a book.

They were jealous of Hongzhi, why was she so favored, but they never showed it.

Now that the opportunity has come, how could you not seize it?

"Miss, let's go quickly. Hongzhi must be infected with something unclean."

"Even so, I don't know if it's leprosy or something..."

"No, no." Chen Chuxue shook her head quickly, "The doctor said I am allergic and cannot be infected..."

Yes, in order to prevent herself from being seen, she deliberately put a lot of red dots on her face, which was equivalent to disfigurement.

Moreover, their attention will only be on these red spots, not on why her appearance is different from before.

"You..." Miss Guo was a little frightened by what the two maids said, so she waved her hand, "Forget it, go down and rest for the day."

Anyone who sees a normally nice person suddenly turning red will be frightened.

Therefore, Miss Guo had no intention of visiting the garden and quickly returned to her room. The two maids sent the lady to her room and left, with the personal maid serving her.

After that, the two maids began to spread the news about "red sesame" everywhere.

Within a few minutes, the entire Guo family knew that "Hongzhi was sick."

Chen Chuxue naturally did this on purpose, so that those people would not approach her.

If no one dares to contact her, they won't discover her fakeness, and she can easily enter the study.

As for the real Hongzhi, after she leaves, he will give her some money as compensation.

I believe that with a sum of money, even if Hongzhi's status declines, it will be enough for her to live in this life.
