Just because she looks weak doesn't mean she's easy to bully.

This time, Cheng Jinchu did not answer Yunzhi directly. She slowly picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said lightly.

"Yunzhi, this time, I'll give you half a month. You have to go to Liu County before those who are going to investigate the truth to protect some people. This is a very important mission. Take a team with you. Liu Wei is calm and smart. Go find his team!"

It just so happens that when Yunzhi comes back, the case of the real and fake daughter can be tried.

There is no other way. I could have gotten away with it, but now I can only go to Liu County once.

All major cases must be tried in public. The case of the real or fake daughter has not been tried yet, but the assassination incident has caused such a sensation!

On the day of the trial, Cheng Jinchu and Yunzhi wore reed hats and stood in the crowd to watch the excitement. Mo Ling knelt in the hall. The presiding judge this time was actually the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple.

Cheng Jinchu was a little surprised. Is this matter so serious?

The people below were whispering to each other about the latest rumors, and the buzzing sound made Lord Chang, the Minister of the Dali Temple, who was sitting up there, frown slightly.

"quiet!"

Lord Chang slammed the table with the gavel, and the scene suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

"Who is in the hall?"

According to the rules, you have to ask.

Mo Ling deliberately wore very thin clothes today. She knelt there huddled up, looking pitiful. Plus, she was quite pretty, so many people showed their sympathy for her.

"Your Excellency, I am Shen Taohua, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue."

"Well...tell me about who you told and what happened."

Lord Chang asked as he looked at the person kneeling in the hall.

Mo Ling bit her lip, and her eyes instantly turned red. When she opened her mouth to speak again, she was choked with sobs, and it sounded as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"Your Excellency, I, I... the thing is, a few months ago, there was a woman, she suddenly appeared in Xianyun Villa. I felt sorry for her, so I took her with me to be my personal maid. I didn't expect that this woman would collude with the bandits... wuwuwu... She, she and the bandits quickly took control of Xianyun Villa, and also arrested Manager Mo and his two sons who had been protecting me in the villa..."

At this point, Mo Ling burst into tears, which earned her sympathy from the people around her. When she calmed down a little, she continued her story.

"She said she wanted me to experience the feeling of being a lowly servant, so she made me do the dirtiest and most tiring work in the villa. Every day, she would perform a scene to torture the steward, and told me not to close my eyes and to watch carefully..."

At this point, Mo Ling looked as if she was overwhelmed as she couldn't recall the past, and she burst into tears on the spot.

Lord Chang was very patient and not in a hurry. He waited for Mo Ling to speak. Of course, his many years of experience in handling cases prevented him from expressing his opinion on the matter right away.

"I, I really thought I was going to die. I don't know how long I lived in that dark life..."

Mo Ling took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears carefully. Cheng Jinchu also observed carefully. She cried very skillfully. She made her tears fall in big drops to create a very sad, helpless and pitiful look. At the same time, she had to pay attention to expressing sadness only through tears, which means, there must be no snot involved!

People who cry out of true sadness actually have no image at all. Usually snot flows along with tears. Such an image obviously will not make people feel any sympathy for them.

Cheng Jinchu gently poked Yunzhi's arm. Yunzhi leaned her body a little and put her head closer to Cheng Jinchu to listen to her.

"Yunzhi, did you see Mo Ling crying?"

Cheng Jinchu whispered in Yunzhi's ear, and Yunzhi nodded gently.

"Learn this. You have no one to back you up here. It's easy to get into trouble without a background. You will meet many people who know this trick in the future. Although it's easy to solve it with force, it's easy to give people a reason to criticize you, and the follow-up will be too troublesome. I've given these tea art performances a beautified name, called magic attack! This secret is about killing without shedding blood. People who practice properly can even kill with a borrowed knife. Little girl, magic is the only way to defeat magic. Watch out, it will be useful after you learn it!"

Yunzhi opened her eyes wide, and her admiration for her master increased even more. She would definitely study hard. She could endure the hardships of martial arts training, so practicing magic should be easy...

Cheng Jinchu had no choice. The most indispensable person in this backyard was an expert in tea art. She was a person from another country, all alone and helpless here. Chengzi wanted her to take part in a big plot, so she really couldn't leave for the time being.

"Your case involves two families. Let Lord Shen and Prime Minister Zhao's second son Zhao Cheng come up!"

There was a hint of displeasure on Lord Chang's face. He hated crying girls the most. Alas... it was rare in the world to find a woman as straightforward and honest as his wife.

The normal adult had a look of disgust on his face, but Mo Ling didn't notice it at all. She was still curled up there crying. The crying made Adult Chang have to hold back his anger before he could throw the gavel in his hand down.

Mo Ling didn't see it, but Cheng Jinchu did. She hurriedly pulled Yunzhi's sleeve again.

"Little girl, did you see Master Chang's expression?"

Yunzhi looked over in confusion and saw that the adult had a dark face. She was puzzled for a moment. She remembered that her master once said that men like weak women the most.

As if noticing the little girl's confusion, Cheng Jinchu corrected her.

"I told you before that a large number of men like this, but don't take it as the whole story. Remember, there are also men who hate such pretentious women. We are here to help your sister Jinyi. We have a mission.

That's why I told you to pretend to be weak. When the mission is completed, you should be yourself. What I want to say is that when we are doing the mission, when you choose to use magic to attack, you must learn to observe the opponent. For someone like Master Chang, you must not use magic to attack!"

Cheng Jinchu was not afraid that the little girl would be bullied. What if she learned this magic attack and the other party didn't like it and wanted to attack her, she would most likely be beaten to death by the little girl. The little girl has had amazing arm strength since she was a child. Don't be fooled by the fact that she looks like a very weak little girl. She was born with supernatural powers and was chased and fed by God!

She was just afraid that the little girl's love for learning had just started, and what would happen if a blind person came along and dampened her enthusiasm for learning and extinguished the flame?

The little girl's mind is too pure, which is a good thing, but not all people in this world have pure minds. Cheng Jinchu hopes that she can gain something from this experience.

Yunzhi nodded solemnly again, not caring whether she understood or not. She believed that whatever her master said was right and she had to agree with him. As for what she didn't understand, she would just take the time to slowly understand it.

Cheng Jinchu knew, of course, that Yunzhi didn't understand, but it was okay. As long as they stayed in the Shen residence, they would have many opportunities to gain experience together. If they interacted with more people, they would naturally understand.

Cheng Jinchu began to pay attention to the people in the hall again, and saw that Shen Yun and the Second Young Master Zhao had arrived. Although the Second Young Master Zhao's father was the prime minister, what did it have to do with him? He had not participated in the imperial examination and had no official status. When he came in, he also knelt like Mo Ling.

Shen Yun bowed to Lord Chang above and stood aside. Lord Chang looked at the two people below, his eyes rolling up to the sky, and the word "hate" was almost written on his face.
