I opened a treasure chest on the road to escape

Chen Chuxue told her that she could disguise herself as a maid, but Uncle Geng did not agree with this method because it was too dangerous.

For them, the county government is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. If Xiaoxue goes inside, they will have no time to rescue him if something goes wrong.

"Forget it, I'll go find that person and see if I can get evidence from him."

Uncle Geng didn't want Chen Chuxue to take risks. If something happened to her, he would have no words to face Chen's father.

"The county says it's not big, it's not small." Chen Chuxue shook her head, "Uncle, it's very difficult for you to find another person who wants to hide..."

Especially if the person is hidden on purpose, it will be even harder to find.

Moreover, that person is now being targeted by the county magistrate, and there must be many spies around him.

Aunt Geng did not continue the topic, "Let's see if we can stay in an inn these days!"

"I just don't know when those people will search. We don't have household registration... it's too dangerous..."

Living here, when the government officials come to search, they may not be able to discover it in advance.

Once discovered, they would definitely not be able to escape. After all, everyone knew that this place was abandoned, but someone was hiding here. How could the government officials let them leave.

However, staying in an inn actually comes with risks.

Naturally, it was impossible for the government officials not to search the inn. After searching, they found that they had no household registration guide...

"So, we still have to use the fastest way to leave the county." Chen Chuxue said, "Let's do this, uncle, let's split up!"

The yamen will appear at any time, like a sword hanging above their heads, and they have no time.

"I'll go to the county government to have a look. If it doesn't work tonight, then we'll find another way early tomorrow morning..."

Uncle Geng finally nodded. He now had no clue about finding that person and had no idea where to look.

So after much deliberation, only Chen Chuxue's method was feasible.

Moreover, because he didn't know when the government officials would come to search, he had to stay here. If there was danger, he could protect his wife and daughter.

"Xiaoxue, don't be brave." Aunt Geng took Chen Chuxue's hand and said, "We are all still waiting for you to come back. Xiaoyue cannot live without you as a sister..."

"elder sister!"

Xiaoyue also seemed to know that her sister was going to be a big sister, so she reached out to hug her, and then kissed her on the face.

"Sister, if you want to come back, Xiaoyue is waiting for you."

"Don't worry, Xiaoyue!"

Chen Chuxue touched Xiaoyue's head, and then looked at the others solemnly, "If this place is exposed, then uncle, please move to another place..."

Then they discussed a code and another meeting point.

Then, Chen Chuxue took out a lot of things from the space, and also took out some money, so that even if she didn't come back in time, they would still have money to buy food outside.

After doing this, Chen Chuxue left after dinner. She first went to the inn.

The real Hongzhi just woke up and his expression suddenly changed when he saw Chen Chuxue, "Who are you..."

Chen Chuxue didn't have time to explain to her. He took a knife and threatened her to eat her dinner, then tied her up.

The addition of sleeping pills to dinner and being tied up would at least prevent her from going out to cause trouble tonight.

"Don't worry, after I finish my work, I will give you a sum of money to compensate you."

Hongzhi's face was full of horror. She didn't expect any compensation at all, she just hoped to survive, and more importantly.

She wanted to go back and tell the eldest lady that someone was trying to harm her.

Yes, Hongzhi felt that Chen Chuxue was disguising her just to get close to the eldest lady and to harm her.

As the young lady's maid, she naturally had the responsibility to protect the young lady. Unfortunately, she was tied up, and it was useless even if she struggled desperately.

Moreover, a piece of cloth was stuffed in his mouth, so he couldn't scream for help. After a while, the effects of the sleeping pills took effect and she fell asleep. The last thought she had when she passed out was that God would protect the lady and nothing would happen to her.

Chen Chuxue didn't know what Hongzhi was thinking. Although she felt a little guilty, she couldn't help it.

Shaking off these thoughts, she quickly returned to Guo's house.

In fact, according to the rules, as a maid, Hongzhi cannot enter and exit the mansion at will without orders.

But the concierge knew that Hongzhi seemed to be "sick". Firstly, he did not dare to approach her. Secondly, he guessed that she might have gone out to see a doctor, so he did not stop her.

Chen Chuxue just put a veil on her face and rushed into Guo's house.

…………

"Miss, are you okay?"

After Miss Guo returned to the room, she began to feel uncomfortable, which made the personal maid begin to worry.

The young lady was originally not in good health. She was hit by "red sesame" in the morning. I'm afraid her condition has become more serious.

"I didn't...ahem"

Miss Guo waved her hand, coughed, and then felt a little dizzy. Otherwise, she might have fallen down if the maid had not helped her in time.

"Miss, let me help you go to bed and rest for a while!"

The maid said, helped Miss Guo go to bed to rest, and then said to the other maid next to her.

"Xiao Lu, go find the doctor quickly!"

It didn't take long for the doctor to arrive, followed closely by Magistrate Guo.

After the doctor finished taking his pulse, Magistrate Guo hurriedly said, "Doctor, how is it? Xiaoyi, she..."

"Master Guo, Ling Qianjin was just frightened, which caused her weak body to be unable to bear it. She just needs to rest more...it's just..."

"Just what?" Magistrate Guo suddenly became anxious. Although he was a corrupt official, he was also a good father who loved his daughter.

After his wife passed away, he never married again. He only had one daughter and nothing could happen to her.

"It's just that I still can't completely cure your daughter's cough..."

A few months ago, he had seen a doctor for the daughter of the Guo family, but he didn't know whether it was because of his inherent physical weakness or what.

As a result, various medicines were prescribed, but they were still unable to cure Guo Yi's cough.

"Is there not enough medicine?" Magistrate Guo asked anxiously, "What medicine does the doctor need? I will immediately send someone to the south to find..."

"Master Guo, this is no longer a problem with the medicine, but a problem with my limited medical skills. It's better to hire another expert!"

"However, the most Xiaomin can do is give Ling Qianjin some prescriptions to regulate her body..."

He has tried various medicines. Although County Magistrate Guo found a lot of medicines from the south, there is still no solution.

In other words, maybe his medical skills are really not good enough!

Watching the doctor leave, Magistrate Guo looked very ugly. He turned around and ordered his men, "Go and find all the doctors in the city. I don't believe that no one can cure Xiaoyi."

"In addition, I will be offered a reward. As long as I can cure Xiaoyi's disease, I will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins. No, no matter what the conditions are, I will agree to it."

He cares more about Xiaoyi's safety than money. No matter how much money he spends, he doesn't care.

"Also, why did the lady get frightened?"

Hearing Magistrate Guo's words, the maids were so frightened that they knelt down and told what happened.

"It's Hongzhi. Hongzhi hit the lady this morning."

When County Magistrate Guo heard this, he was furious and said, "Come here, grab Hongzhi and kill him with a stick!"
