Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

Chapter 183 Eastern Palace Guards



Chapter 183 Eastern Palace Guards

"Sister Wu, did your brother receive my letter?"

"Miss, I got it. They went straight home. What else do we have to do?"

"Don't move for now. I just want to find where the mine they discovered is."

"By the way, miss, I have something to tell you."

Wang Jinyi was originally full of suspicion towards the Feng sisters. When she heard Wu Wumei say that she had something to say, she immediately became nervous.

"what's up?"

"Miss, the two sisters of the Feng family said that they want to sell themselves to the mansion."

"Ah? When did you say that?"

"On the way back, they said they had nowhere to stay, so they wanted to sign a contract and come to the mansion to find a place to stay."

Now Wang Jinyi's brain is working fast. Only by predicting the worst case scenario and taking the most comprehensive precautions can all disasters be avoided.

The biggest threat facing him is that members of the Cao family are lurking around him, and this possibility can basically be ruled out.

If that's the case, as long as Wu Mei is killed halfway, this line will basically be broken, and I will retreat in the face of difficulties. At least it will have a deterrent effect on myself. If...

Wang Jinyi put himself in the shoes of the Cao family and made various assumptions over and over again, but he felt that it was meaningless to put two people with such high martial arts skills around him.

But the two sisters of the Feng family are indeed worthy of suspicion!

In this case, we must not let these two people into the mansion to avoid any unpleasant consequences.

After thinking it through, he decided to arrange for the two to live separately outside the house.

First, someone must be sent to investigate the backgrounds of the two people, and then official deeds must be issued to them.

If Wu Mei didn't need a real helper, there would be no need to take the risk, so let's try to take the risk and hire someone! I don't know if it's an enemy or a friend, so I have to be cautious.

"Sister Wu, go eat first, then go to Qingyu's place to settle the bill, and take your two brothers to collect the reward money.

Keep an eye on the Cao family from now on. I want to know where their mine is."

Wu Mei happily saluted the lady:

"Miss, you are too polite. They protected me because you were kind enough to pay for the trip and give them tips. Miss, it's hard to find a master like you. They must be envious of me for having found a good master!"

"If your two brothers don't follow you to the capital, what should they do now if they stay in the city?"

"When the escort agency is busy, I follow my father to escort. Now that there is no work, I do odd jobs."

"Do they have a bond?"

"No, Miss, do you want my brother to come into the mansion?"

"Sister Wu, ask them to come to the west gate the day after tomorrow. If they want to enter the mansion, they can come. I want to see them in person."

"Miss, they are outsiders!"

"I just watched from a distance and didn't meet you."

"Miss, sometimes I think you are very strange, and later I find that you think too far ahead. But let me tell you, my eldest brother is negotiating a marriage, so I'm afraid he can't enter the mansion. My second brother is 15, and he hasn't been negotiating a marriage in the past two years, so he can enter the mansion."

"Sister Wu, can both of your brothers read?"

"Miss, my father went to a private school, and they studied with my father when they were young."

"Okay, go ahead. Don't forget what I said. Report to me in time if anything happens. Remember to stay safe."

Sister Wu pulled her clothes, bowed respectfully to the young lady, then went out with a smile.

Qingyu and Wumei passed each other and entered the house.

Wang Jinyi lowered his head, wrote the reward on a small piece of paper, and handed it to Qingyu. Qingyu went out and took Wu Mei, who was waiting at the door, to the small account office.

When the nurse at the door saw that everyone had left, she came into the room and stood beside the young lady.

"Is the nurse okay?"

"Miss, I won't tell anyone what happened in our room."

"Oh?"

Wang Jinyi understood that the nanny felt that she was excluded and felt uncomfortable.

"Nurse, you have your own business, and you can't let anyone know about it."

The nurse bent over and asked in a low voice:

"Miss, what is it?"

Wang Jinyi thought this kind of competition was quite good, so she pointed to the drawer of her desk, and the nanny opened the drawer according to the young lady's instructions.

There is a pile of design drawings neatly stacked in the drawer, and the well-drawn shoulder bags are lifelike. You can even feel the texture of the fabric.

The nanny's eyes lit up and she smiled happily when she saw the picture in her hand.

"The nurse should make some samples and bring them back to the tribe. Do you think you can get two of them before my great-uncle leaves?"

Zhu Yu's report was heard outside the door. After entering the door, Wang Jinyi felt that Zhu Yu had changed a lot after being punished this time.

"Miss, Wen Bai said that the poetry and prose parts have been sorted out, and he wants to add an illustration to each poem."

Wang Jinyi thought about it and felt that even if Wenbai’s painting skills were very high, it would be difficult for him to surpass the clan leader who was known as a master of both calligraphy and painting.

The collection of poems has been given to the clan. The clan has the final say on how to publish it. There is no need for me to worry about it anymore.

It was because he was short of people and needed Wen Bai to do something very urgent, so he walked quickly to the table.

Zhu Yu stepped forward to help the young lady onto the chair, but Wang Jinyi refused and climbed onto the big chair with great effort, pulling out the big drawer in the middle. She took out paper and pencils, quickly wrote a note and handed it to Zhu Yu.

"Let Wen Bai go to Taisheng Rice Shop and ask Chen Ji to do this. Also, let him tell Zhao Chunming to come in person next time he delivers the account book."

Zhu Yu heard the young lady's instructions and left.

Wang Jinyi sat in his seat and wrote down in detail on paper every suspicion he had about the Feng sisters from the moment they appeared until now. He tried all the logical reasoning methods he had learned in his previous life, but after spending an hour he came up with nothing.

I have no doubts this time, I just need to be cautious in employing people.

In fact, the main reason why no results were obtained was that the conditions assumed by Wang Jinyi were not sufficient. Wang Jinyi forgot an important person - Ouyang Wen

Wang Jinyi never expected that the Wu she had been on guard against had nothing to do with what she had guessed, but was instead two guards from the East Palace. This would be the first time that Wang Jinyi and Ouyang Wenche were involved.

Wang Jinyi's painstaking reasoning ended in vain, and he could only practice calligraphy on time.

The calligraphy banners and vertical scrolls sent by the clan leader this time were all hung in the hall and bedroom in the west room respectively. Only the "Three Character Classic" written by the clan leader himself was hung on the desk.

Wang Jinyi held his chin with his hand, tilted his head, and stared at the words written by the clan leader. How could someone write the same Chinese characters so full of spirit, as if every word was full of life?

What is the reason why I can't draw well? I don't have aesthetic vision, it's impossible! I studied sketching for two years. I have a foundation in aesthetics!

Unfamiliar with Chinese characters? It’s okay to say that three-year-old Wang Jinyi is unfamiliar with Chinese characters, but I have been in school for 16 years and I know Chinese characters.

Wang Jinyi finally came to the conclusion that writing ability requires talent. Fortunately, even if you don’t have talent, you have unique resources. Look, this room full of handwriting by everyone. Even if you just copy it, you can make some progress!
