Chapter 165: The Maiden Smells the Broth

What's wrong? Cao Zhijin asked puzzled.

Cao Zhijin thought that someone was coming, but when he looked left and right, there was no half of a figure except for the two of them, there were no guards in front of the door, and no one came out of the door.

Wen Zhi said in a nervous whisper: "This is the gate of King Chen's mansion, only for two people to enter and exit, one is King Chen, and the other is the saint today!" The maid enters the house at the back door, let's go quickly, if someone finds us staying here again, we will lose our heads! ”

Cao Zhijin nodded, followed him and continued to walk forward, while also thinking to himself, no wonder there is no trace of popularity here, it is a pity to be such a big person for only two people to enter and exit!

Continuing to walk almost the distance from the beginning of the pink wall to the gate, the road finally narrowed, very narrow, just like Cao Zhijin had just stepped from the deserted street into the suddenly widened street, everything seemed to be reasonable!

Contrary to the gradual desertion before, the further you go, the more lively the street becomes.

Wen Zhi took him to the first corner perpendicular to the street where they were, and continued to turn until he walked to another vertical street intersection, and walked a long distance before he saw a three-meter-wide gate, and the decorations and plaques in front of the door were almost the same as in front of the main gate she had just seen, except that like the door, they were all shrunk according to the regulations of the back door.

A little less intimidation, a little more popularity.

But this is the Chenwang Mansion in the end, and the cold air that is difficult to get rid of is still indispensable.

The front of the back door was deserted, with the occasional figure or two walking around.

The two guards guarding the door were wearing armor that reflected the cold light, and stood in front of the door with spears in their hands, a little more alive than the stone lion in front of the door.

"Sister, my brother can't continue to send you anymore, you have to take care!" Wen Zhi handed over the burden to Cao Zhijin and looked at her with a very uneasy look in his eyes.

"Don't worry, brother, I will!" Cao Zhijin smiled at him with a reassuring smile.

Wen Zhi nodded, took out a wooden sign from his sleeve and handed it to one of the guards on his right.

The guard glanced at it, then said coldly to Wen Zhi with a straight face: "She can only enter alone, you leave quickly!"

Before Cao Zhijin could see what the sign was, the guard shoved the sign into her hand and drove her into the Chenwang Mansion almost half-pushed.

Cao Zhijin didn't even have time to say goodbye to Wen Zhi.

The Chenwang Mansion is very large, the shadows of the trees are heavy, and the eaves are staggered and overlapped from near to far, which is dazzling.

This is just the tip of the iceberg that Cao Zhijin saw when he looked beyond the top of the wall.

In fact, there are no houses blocking the way to the left and right in front of her, but there are walls to block the view, leaving only a simple circular moon doorway, or a stone carved hollow window with an overturned style to reveal a little view behind the wall.

Cao Zhijin looked down at the wooden plaque in his hand.

The wooden plaque is still brand new, and it seems that it has been well preserved.

The back of it is incomprehensible at a glance, the style is very complicated, like a specific pattern, the front is very simple, only engraved with the name of Wen Jin.

Cao Zhijin thought that this should be the token sent out by the Chenwang Mansion after Wen Jin became the maid of the Chenwang Mansion.

She had been in for a while, but no one had come to claim her, and the two guards at the door didn't pay any attention to her, but when she tried to step out of the threshold of Chenwang's mansion, they scared her back with full murderous aura.

Occasionally, two or three figures walked by, they were wearing the same clothes, they should be the little servants in the house, but they didn't seem to see her at all, a big living person, and walked past her without squinting, and they didn't cast a curious look because she had stood here for a long time!

The people in this Chenwang Mansion are very strange from top to bottom!

Cao Zhijin felt that if she honestly waited for someone to claim it, she would probably have to stand here for the night!

Seeing a maid walking by, she hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

"Sister, I'm a new maid, who should I talk to to report?"

The maid was born with red lips and white teeth, and there was a quiet bookish air between her eyebrows, and she smiled when she looked at Cao Zhijin: "Show me your wooden card!"

Cao Zhijin handed her the wooden plaque.

She glanced at the wooden card and smiled at her again: "Wen Jin, your name is so good!"

"What's my sister's name?" Since the name was mentioned, Cao Zhijin took the opportunity to ask.

"My name is Qiu'er." Qiu'er replied.

Cao Zhijin nodded and said, "Jinqiu Jingmei, my sister's name and my sister's temperament complement each other!"

Qiu'er smiled in surprise and joy: "My full name is Jin Qiu!"

"What a coincidence!" Cao Zhijin smiled, "It means that this name was born for my sister!" ”

"Xiao Jinxiu said nonsense, I'll take you to see Aunt Wang." She said with a blushing face.

Cao Zhijin smiled: "Thank you, Sister Qiu'er!"

Qiu'er said that Aunt Wang is the female steward who is in charge of all the sundries in the backyard of King Chen's mansion, because she is the closest maid to Princess Chen's side.

Cao Zhijin originally thought that although the female steward who could be in charge of the backyard of King Chen's mansion was not as scary as King Chen, at least it must be very serious, but when she saw Aunt Wang herself, Cao Zhijin's impression was very different from what she imagined!

Aunt Wang is not tall, plump, and has a pair of smiling eyes that give people a sense of intimacy.

Cao Zhijin didn't have time to salute her, so she nodded and smiled at Cao Zhijin, which made people feel relieved from the bottom of their hearts.

Aunt Wang looked at Qiu'er and said with a smile: "Thank you Qiu'er for bringing Wen Jin to me, you go and go about your own business!"

Qiu'er respectfully replied with a salute and turned to leave.

Aunt Wang stepped forward and pulled Cao Zhijin and said cordially: "Your name is Wen Jin, right?" What a name! ”

"Aunt Wang praised it!" Cao Zhijin said modestly.

Aunt Wang pulled her around the courtyard, as if Cao Zhijin was not here to be a maid, but to be a guest.

"This is the princess's Fangfei Courtyard, the princess doesn't like to be disturbed when she reads, I won't take you in, you can come directly to Fangfei Courtyard to find me if you have anything in the future!" She said coolly while showing Cao Zhijin the things in the yard.

"Thank you, Aunt Wang, but I don't know where I'm going to be on an errand now?" Cao Zhijin asked hesitantly.

Aunt Wang smiled and said, "Look at me, I'm so happy to see you that I forgot about it for a while." You came relatively late, and now there is no shortage of manpower in each courtyard, so you should go to Qinxiangyuan on an errand first! ”

Qinxiangyuan, Cao Zhijin silently wrote down this place.

"Wait, I'll call someone to take you there!" Aunt Wang called a maid in a hurry, whispered a few words, and the maid walked towards Cao Zhijin.

The two saluted each other, and the maid didn't seem to want to deal with her, and she didn't even want to tell her her name.

She walked forward quickly with her head shut, as if she wanted to shake off Cao Zhijin.

But she hadn't forgotten her task, and when Cao Zhijin really fell a long distance from her, she stood in place and turned her head to wait for Cao Zhijin vigilantly.

Although I don't know why, Cao Zhijin is not unacquainted, since people don't want her to get close, she deliberately keeps a distance from her.
