Chapter 198: A Positive Encounter
The treasury of Chenwangfu is divided into four warehouses in the southeast, northwest and northwest according to the different things that are stored, except for the north warehouse, the other three warehouses are in the middle courtyard.
There are many kinds of things stored in the west treasury, and the medicinal materials of the Chenwang Mansion are stored in the west treasury.
There are four warehouses in the southeast, northwest and northwest, three of which are in the middle yard, and only the north warehouse is in the backyard. Cao Zhijin listened carefully to Fang Xi's introduction, and compared it according to the map he had written down in his impression.
I don't know if this north treasury is too mysterious or too worthless, the map only mentions the north treasury - the north treasury belongs to the backyard - but where is its specific location, what exactly is stored, no explanation is made.
However, this thought was like a bird skimming the water, lightly striking a little ripple, and it didn't stay in her mind for long, because at the moment her attention was almost entirely on something else—the map marked that King Chen lived in the middle courtyard!
Although the west treasury is not far from the middle courtyard, Cao Zhijin feels that this is the closest she has come to King Chen in the past three months since she entered the Chen Palace!
The fact that she was trapped in Qinxiangyuan for the past three months made her plan to save her father-in-law in the Chenwang Mansion difficult to carry out, like a pool of stagnant water, and now this pool of stagnant water has finally come back to life!
Before she could rejoice, far away, a familiar figure passed through the moon gate without warning, suddenly broke into her eyes, and even came to her at the cold and swift speed of the wind and snow!
The person who came was King Chen!
At this moment, she and Fang Xi were passing through a hall, and Fang Xi was leading the way, and she had completely walked out of the hall at this moment.
Outside the hall is a courtyard, the space is vast, Fang Xi retreated to the side, quickly let go of the road into the hall, kneeling on the side of the road to salute.
And her let it undoubtedly expose Cao Zhijin!
At this moment, King Chen was almost coming to the entrance of the hall, and Cao Zhijin was about to arrive at the door, although the space for the hall was not small, but Cao Zhijin still felt a suffocating oppression coming head-on.
It was impossible for her to take the first step out after King Chen arrived at the door of the hall, let alone retreat, at this moment she could only try to get aside and kneel down to salute.
Sure enough, King Chen's ever-frightening gaze fell on the top of Cao Zhijin's head.
Although Cao Zhijin didn't look up, she knew that he looked at her.
He is the king of Chen, and he will not spend too much time on a humble servant girl like an ant to look at it carefully, so his observation is quick and sloppy!
In other words, if you look at the first impression, if it is okay, you can survive, if it is ......, it is a dead end!
It wasn't until King Chen walked out of the hall far away that Cao Zhijin relieved himself.
Fang Xi walked over, looked at her in surprise and said, "Wen Jin, I didn't expect you to learn the rules so well!" Looking at the entire Shangcheng, who would dare to meet King Chen head-on and stand at the same door except for the emperor? If you are not careful in that situation just now, it will be a catastrophe! ”
Cao Zhijin smiled bitterly in her heart, it seems that she has just become very "lucky" to become the first person to meet King Chen head-on and stand in the same door. However, then again, this is thanks to the patient teaching of her master in Qinxiangyuan, she was so inappropriate at the beginning, but she didn't expect to save her life today!
Obviously, Fang Xi was also a little surprised by King Chen's sudden appearance.
Usually, except for special festivals, King Chen rarely comes to the backyard, and Fang Xi didn't expect to meet King Chen here, so he didn't prepare at all, and naturally forgot to remind Cao Zhijin.
Thinking back to the scene just now, she still has palpitations!
Cao Zhijin lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking, and in the eyes of outsiders, he looked like he was abiding by his duties and calm.
Fang Xi was very satisfied with her this!
After walking a distance, I came to the West Treasury.
The west treasury is also composed of several courtyards connected together, which looks no different from other ordinary courtyards.
The West Treasury is not as deserted as its name sounds, on the contrary, it is the most "lively" place in the middle courtyard that Cao Zhijin has seen.
Because King Chen lives in the middle courtyard, the small number of people in the middle courtyard is one of the reasons for the quietness, and the second is forced by the coercion of King Chen, the subordinates of the middle courtyard dare not speak, and they even have a special set of light walking methods!
Here, a few figures shuttled through the bright door for several months, and there were people talking in small voices.
Fang Xi took Cao Zhijin past a small courtyard, and in the center of the courtyard were several large piles of stuffed things, two of which were different from other tightly tied burdens, they were spread out on the ground.
Cao Zhijin saw that it was full of half-new clothes.
The two maids squatted in their clothes with sad faces and picked them up, and when they saw someone coming, they subconsciously glanced at it, and when they were about to retract their gaze, they found that it was Fang Xi, and their eyes showed a strange look.
Although they had mastered how to quickly cover up the different colors with a respectful look, Cao Zhijin still noticed it.
Fang Xi also noticed it.
"What's wrong?" She walked over to them and asked.
Fang Xi's words have never put pressure on people, making it easy for people to relax their guard, and the two maids complained to her in a low voice: "These two bags of clothes were sent by Fangfeiyuan, and they should have been damaged and torn clothes, but when the slave maid was ready to deal with them today, she found that there were a lot of half-new good clothes in them!"
Although damaged clothes and half-new clothes will not be asked again, they have their own ways to take care of them, and it is really a headache to mix them up now!
Fang Xi said kindly: "Okay, you don't have to worry about these two bags of clothes, I'll go back and ask someone to deal with it later, I've worked hard for you today, I'll go back and ask the princess for you!"
The two maids immediately smiled, and hurriedly shook their heads and said, "Aunt Fang is serious, this is a matter within our responsibility, Aunt Fang helped us avoid trouble, we are already very grateful, how dare we ask the princess for reward?"
Both parties laughed once, the original gloom dissipated, and the atmosphere was very harmonious!
Cao Zhijin looked at Fang Xi quietly, and the question he had in Qinxiangyuan came to his mind again.
The steward of the backyard of the palace, why bother to please everyone?
After this moon gate, there is the pharmacy.
There is no doctor in King Chen's mansion, so the medicinal materials stored are very casual, good and bad.
Cao Zhijin casually spun around inside and shook his head towards Fang Xi.
"No?" Fang Xi was not very surprised.
The medicinal materials here were all sent by the imperial doctors and some ministers in the palace, and not many people in the palace understood what they were sent, and the prince didn't even bother to look at it, so she didn't have much hope that Wen Jin would be able to find the things in the princess's cup of tea here!
"Do you sell them at the pharmacy outside?" Fang Xi asked.
Cao Zhijin nodded.
Fang Xi said: "You wait for me here, I'll go back and ask the princess first!"
