Mi Qi was shocked that the culprit mentioned by Cheng Jinhua was actually Cao Wenhua, the magistrate of Zhuque County!

"The county magistrate Cao Wenhua used his power and money to bribe the dean of Lihuayuan and the team leader... They deliberately neglected me and even abused me. They didn't feed me, didn't let me sleep well, and even used my adopted daughter.

They threatened me, and I was tortured by them. I had hallucinations, palpitations, and sometimes couldn't control my behavior." Cheng Jinhua said slowly, and he told those people what they had done bit by bit.

There are some details that are outrageous to listen to.

It's no wonder that Cheng Jinhua's mental state is not normal.

"So, the strangulation mark on your neck was caused by you?" Ruyan looked at the red mark on Cheng Jinhua's neck with some distress.

After she first met Cheng Jinhua, she regarded this kind-hearted young man as a younger brother.

Originally, she thought that a high-level opera actress like Cheng Jinhua should have a good life.

Who would have thought that Cheng Jinhua would encounter this.

Most people can't bear those blows. If it weren't for the worries in her heart, Cheng Jinhua probably wouldn't be able to survive long ago.

"I'm sick, I can't control myself, but they are all nearby, and no one can help me..." At this point, Cheng Jinhua's eyes were full of despair, and her heart was extremely frustrated.

"Are they thinking that when you can't bear it anymore, they will naturally give in?" Mickey said.

"Yes, they want me to surrender, so that the troupe can be specially taken care of, and they can all benefit..."

"Not everyone thinks that way. There are still some who simply can't stand me and want something to happen to me. The bigger the trouble is, the happier they will be. They even want me to die early."

Cheng Jinhua crossed her fingers and her expression gradually calmed down.

He has died once, and now he has nothing to fear. Once there is no burden in his heart, many things will be relieved.

"They will pay the price...but before that, we have to think carefully about Magistrate Cao." Ouyang Heng said lightly.

"Magistrate Cao is nothing. He is just a county magistrate. Even if he is a bigger official, as long as there is real evidence, our hidden guards can deal with him..."

"But the people behind Magistrate Cao are the ones we need to be wary of."

"The Cao family, where Magistrate Cao is located, is quite powerful in Jiangnan, but not too strong. The really powerful one is the Jiang family that the Cao family clings to."

"Jiang Wanliu of the Jiang family is the newly promoted cabinet bachelor. The power behind him is huge." Mi Qi analyzed.

It is almost impossible for an official without foundation to become a cabinet minister.

The minister always has to serve the country. If there is no one behind him to support him, then the decrees he implements will have little effect.

When the emperor appoints the elder, he does not appoint him however he wants.

After a hundred years of discovery, the elder of the cabinet had already established a complete set of procedures when he entered the cabinet. Even the emperor could not violate the rules, otherwise he would suffer backlash from the civil and military officials.

If the emperor becomes a real loner, then Daqi will not be far from destruction.

Therefore, none of the cabinet bachelors who actually enter the cabinet is a fuel-efficient person. They are all people with extremely powerful foundations and extremely strong abilities.

"Is Mr. Jiang Ge really willing to destroy his reputation for Magistrate Cao?" Ouyang Heng frowned.

"What is reputation? At the level of Mr. Ge, they have many means and ways to clear their reputation, but Magistrate Cao has to protect it." Mi Qi sneered.

"How could this be? Isn't Magistrate Cao's status very unusual?" Ouyang Heng didn't understand much about the court's tactics.

"He also has a good status in the Cao family. After all, Cao Wenhua was born as a Jinshi and served as the magistrate of a large county. As long as he has certain political achievements, he will be transferred to the capital in the future and his future will be bright."

"But that's not the point. The point is, if Jiang Wanliu can't protect Cao Wenhua, what will others think of him? They will definitely think that he is incompetent. As a cabinet minister, he can't even protect his subordinates who support him." Mi Qi said coldly.

.

She was younger than Ouyang Heng, so she didn't understand these things originally.

However, when she was training in the past, Zi Yan told them many historical stories when she had time. From historical stories, Mi Qi learned what human nature is.

Of course, they have different qualifications, and only a handful of people stand out and learn more. Mickey is one of the few.

"If we want to deal with Magistrate Cao, we must consider Ge Lao Jiang Wanliu's factors."

Ruyan's heart tightened. To her, Mr. Ge was a god in the sky!

She didn't even know if she would have a chance to see Mr. Ge from a distance, let alone confront Mr. Ge.

"Benefactors, it's up to me to figure this out myself." Cheng Jinhua said in a low voice.

He didn't want to drag a few people into the water. The opponent he faced was really terrifying.

"You don't have to worry about this," Ouyang Heng said.

"Xiao Cheng, we are hidden guards and obey the emperor's orders. We can't care about this matter." Before Ruyan said this, she had already looked at Ouyang Heng and Mi Qi and got their permission.

reveal one's identity.

In fact, it had already been leaked when they spoke before, but they didn't make it clear officially.

"Hidden Guard... Sister Ruyan, benefactors, you are all Hidden Guards." Cheng Jinhua said in surprise.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Hidden Guards are mysterious, powerful, scary, etc. They have many labels. Those who can become Hidden Guards are dragons among people and should not be messed with.

He didn't expect that among the people he knew, there was a hidden guard.

"That's right, don't call us benefactor. You call me Tianyoubieke and call her Xiaotao." Ouyang Heng chose to use a pseudonym. If Ruyan's name had not been known by Cheng Jinhua, he would have let Ruyan use a pseudonym.

Yes, this is the basic common sense for hidden guards when traveling outside.

Even the faces of Ouyang Heng and Mi Qi are not real yet. The only one who has washed away the disguise is Ruyan.

"Brother Tianyou, Sister Xiaotao."

After all, Cheng Jinhua was born as an actor in Lihuayuan. He was very diligent and had a very low profile.

"In short, your business is no longer just your business. Later, Xiaotao will change your appearance so that others can't recognize you. Just pretend to be my book boy and say as little as possible." Ouyang

Heng warned.

"It all depends on Brother Tianyou's arrangement." Cheng Jinhua said.

He no longer asked Ouyang Heng and others to ignore this matter, because he knew that this matter was really not just his business, and it would definitely cause a storm next!

Afterwards, Mickey took out the items she brought with her. The special medicines used to change her appearance were all ready and ready for use at any time.

Mi Qi first changed Ruyan's disguise and restored her appearance using Yunyan's pseudonym, and then started to change Cheng Jinhua's disguise.
