To his surprise, Nalan Jinxiu didn't call anyone over, and she ignored him all her life. He also closed the door of the wardrobe casually and said, "I have checked, and there is no one inside." ”

Chen Zhi was so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe out, for fear of being discovered. is even more incomprehensible to this Jing'an princess, to say that her identity is really enough, there are only three of them he knows.

What she does in every identity can be said to be shocking, such a woman, I am afraid that the whole Daning will not be able to find a second one. It's a spy, and he doesn't have so many heavy identities.

As for what she was calculating, it wasn't something he could guess. But since she took action to cover for him and didn't expose him to people, it was a good thing after all.

The people in the house soon went out, and Chen Zhi heard her and the maid say, "I don't want to sleep yet, I want to wait for the third master to come back, you go back and rest first!"

"Why don't you have a slave with you for a while? ”

"No, I'd like to read the book myself. ”

After sending the last maid out, Nalan Jinxiu walked to the table and sat down, and said coldly: "Everyone is gone, don't you come out yet?"

Chen Zhi could only come out of the closet, it was not easy to hide, he felt that his hair was messy, and his clothes were not very neat, I don't know if he would be a little offended when he saw Princess Jing'an like this?

And Nalan Jinxiu didn't have so much thought about him, she looked at him and said, "Your Xiangguo Mansion is too small to recruit you? Why did you go to my closet and hide?"

Chen Zhi saluted with a proper attitude, and his face was full of apologies: "The villain just had hysteria, and he somehow came here, what do you call the girl?"

Chen Zhi obviously pretended to be stupid, he saw that Nalan Jinxiu's long hair was scattered so casually, and he only pulled a low bun on the top of his hair, so he deliberately called her a girl.

Nalan Jinxiu's expression was indifferent, but he stared at Chen Zhi without blinking, and still said in a cold and clear voice: "Ming people don't say dark words, Manager Chen came to visit late at night, what is the matter?"

Chen Zhi still wanted to continue pretending to be confused, but saw Nalan Jinxiu stand up, looking like he was going to go out the door. He subconsciously reached out to stop him, but she grabbed his arm with her backhand and restrained him very lightly.

"Chen Zhi, let me tell you, I'm not very patient, you'd better be honest with me, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind to you. ”

Chen Zhi looked at the hand holding his arm, his hand was shiny, and he looked weak and boneless. But such a pair of hands, but the strength is amazing.

He felt that his face was really embarrassed, and he was easily subdued by a woman. If this word spreads, then there will be no need to mix in Jinling City in the future.

"Madam, don't be angry, the villain will say. Chen Zhi smiled awkwardly.

Nalan Jinxiu saw that he was not pretending to be confused, so he let him go. Then he walked back to the chair and sat down, and looked at him from head to toe with his eyes before saying, "Speak." ”

This word is said very strongly, and the end note is a little long, but there is no trace of lingering hesitation, but a strong sense of oppression.

Chen Zhi always follows Zong Xuanyi, and he has seen all kinds of characters. In Daning's court, no matter how powerful the official is, he has not been able to give him such a great sense of oppression. He didn't understand why such a weak and slender woman could have such a big aura.

"I got lost, and I was going to go back, but somehow I came to the inner courtyard and entered the lady's house, which is really offended. ”

"I said you don't have a word of truth in your mouth?" Nalan Jinxiu's left hand clenched into a fist and gently tapped the tabletop, as if he was thinking, but he didn't hesitate at all: "There is a long distance between the front yard and the back yard, I live in this yard is not remote, but it is not very easy to find, how did you touch it? And if you are really lost, there are guards around my courtyard, why don't you let them show you the way, but sneak out in the cabinet." ”

Chen Zhi was embarrassed by what she said, and he smiled awkwardly, but he didn't plan to explain too much, only said: "Offended, I hope Mrs. forgives me." ”

"Don't you want to know why I saved you?"

Chen Zhi was stunned, he didn't expect her to speak so sharply, he could only shake his head.

"I know who you are and what you are here for. ”

Chen Zhi couldn't quite figure out how much of what she said was true or false. He remembered that they were only a few faces, and that he had all come from the following personhood, and should be the least conspicuous in the crowd.

A noble person like her, who is pampered in the inner house, should not notice him. Even if she has a good memory, this can barely make sense, so how does she know his intention?

Seeing that he didn't reply, Nalan Jinxiu knew that he was skeptical, and she said lightly: "You are as careful as a hair, you are strategic, and you have not done anything for so many years. I think it's a pity that he let you be a housekeeper, and it's a shame to let you hang an idle post in the court, you really should be an official in the court. With your vision and heart, you will definitely be able to accomplish great things. ”

Chen Zhi was frightened by her praise, he didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit that she was really like a knife, and almost every word spoke to his heart.

He knew that he wanted to follow Xiangguo since he was a child, but when he was studying, he gradually developed an idea that he could be a person who could guide the country.

Every student wants to participate in the scientific examination, but if they are admitted, as long as they are not particularly stupid and manage them a little, they will inevitably have a bright future.

But no matter how well he reads, he is not qualified to participate in the scientific examination, and as for the idle position he is hanging on now, it is also for the convenience of walking around the DPRK and China, and other meanings are not at all.

He didn't know how this woman could see what was going on in his heart. He thinks that he has also covered up well over the years, and he is also willing to stay with Xiangguo and be a servant.

Of course, Nalan Jinxiu couldn't tell him that the reason why she knew this was because they had lived in Xiangguofu together for many years. It is said that she sees people's hearts over time, and she looks at them from the perspective of a bystander, of course, she can see them more clearly than others.

"You won't come here for nothing, let alone take such a big risk, I think you must have a reason to come, don't you plan to tell the truth until now?"

Chen Zhi knew that there was no point in covering it up any longer, and it seemed that he was a very hypocritical person, so he arched his hand and said: "The villain is indeed a little suspicious of your identity, but when he entered your house, he did hit it by mistake." ”

Nalan Jinxiu smiled imperceptibly and asked, "Then I want to ask Manager Chen, can you see what my identity is?"

Chen Zhi nodded.

The expression on Nalan Jinxiu's face did not change, and she only said lightly: "Let's talk about it." ”

"You are the county lord of Zhenbei Wangfu, and you are also the Marquis of Mingle, or the princess of Jing'an in Southern Chu, I don't know if what the villain said is right?"

Nalan Jinxiu nodded, her expression still unchanged: "I'll just say that I didn't mistake you, you are indeed very discerning." I think there are not many people in the entire Jinling City who can see my identity. ”

"Madame praises falsely, and the villain is ashamed. ”

"And what are you going to do?"

Chen Zhi was stunned for a moment by her question, he didn't know how to answer this next. Is his plan important? He is just a subordinate, everything must be done according to the will of Xiangguo, and all he has to think about is how to be most beneficial to Xiangguo.

"I think you also know that Xiangguo has an obsession with me. I'm not sure where this feeling started or ended. But I knew that if I had anything to do with him, it would have to be bad for him. ”

"What do you say, ma'am?"

Chen Zhi vaguely felt that her words were mixed with contempt. seems to be insinuating that Xiang Guo can't compare with Ji Shoufu, if Xiang Guo insists on entanglement, it is asking for hardship.

His loyalty to Xiangguo can be learned from heaven and earth, so how can others be allowed to slander him? Anyone's contempt for Xiangguo is unforgivable in his eyes.

Nalan Jinxiu still looked at Chen Zhi, her eyes were long and there was a coldness, she said: "I have so many identities, sometimes I feel confused, who am I, where am I, what have I done?"

I, the client, sometimes don't know what is going on, and you, as an outsider, must not be able to discover my identity overnight.

I think you should have recognized me when I was a famous Lehou in Jinling. Since you knew my identity at the beginning, but you didn't tell Xiangguo, you think that I would cause trouble for him!"

Chen Zhi did think so, but at this time, he couldn't say it like this. First, he was afraid of hurting the other party's face and making the relationship between the two fall to a freezing point, and he also pointed to someone to escort him out, of course, he couldn't offend someone.

The second is that he doesn't want to have a relationship with this person. She is a very smart person, and if she talks too much, it is inevitable that a handle will fall into her hands. Therefore, he only spoke half of his words, and the other half remained in his heart, and it was enough for him to know.

Nalan Jinxiu insisted on getting to the bottom of it: "Is what I said right or not?"

Chen Zhi smiled, his expression looked a little helpless: "What you said is not entirely right. ”

"It's really tiring to talk to you. Nalan Jinxiu seemed to be bored, she slowly straightened up, and said, "Since you don't want to speak directly, then I'll make it clear." I just saved you, I just want to negotiate a deal with you, it's beneficial to you and me, I wonder if Manager Chen is interested?"

Chen Zhi roughly guessed what she wanted to say, so he said, "Madam, please speak." ”

"You hide your identity for me on Xiangguo's side, and I will help you get out of trouble. ”

"Good. Chen Zhi felt that this deal was a sure deal, and he didn't want to tell Xiangguo the news of her return, he wanted to find a way to hide it.
