Regent, the princess you found is a treasure

After dinner, Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue found an inn to stay in.

The two of them asked for two top-grade rooms. When the shopkeeper saw that a big customer had arrived, he immediately and enthusiastically took them there personally.

"Sir, this is your room." The shopkeeper pushed open the door of two adjacent secluded and elegant rooms on the third floor and said to Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue with a smile.

Su Luoxue looked at the plaque with the word "天" hanging on the door of the room. She smiled and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, thank you for your hard work. Excuse me, how can I get to the City Lord's Mansion in Luocheng?"

The shopkeeper was smiling just a second ago, but when he heard Su Luoxue's question, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, and he asked nervously: "My two guests, why are you looking for the City Lord's Mansion..."

Su Luoxue saw the shopkeeper's expression and said quickly: "Oh, we were asked to deliver something to our fellow villagers who work there."

The shopkeeper's expression eased after hearing her words. "Go south after leaving the inn. You will find the largest and most magnificent mansion in the city."

"Fortunately, you are a young master and a servant, otherwise I would not tell you." said the shopkeeper.

"Why?" Su Luoxue asked deliberately.

"Alas, sir, haven't you noticed that there are not many young women in this city? I can see that this is your first time to visit Ying'an Mansion. You should go back early after you finish your business. Don't meddle in other people's business. We can't afford to offend you." After the shopkeeper said this, he left the room.

After seeing the shopkeeper leave, Su Luoxue immediately closed the door, while Xuan Moyin was already sitting at the table with a gloomy face.

Su Luoxue walked over and sat down opposite him, picked up the teapot on the table, and poured a cup of tea for herself and Xuan Moyin respectively.

Gently pushing the tea bowl in front of him, Xuan Moyin picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp. Then, with a "bang", he slammed the tea bowl heavily onto the table, and the tea bowl broke into pieces in an instant.

"I'm going to capture the Luo family father and son and interrogate them thoroughly," he said.

"What if he refuses to admit it? Are you going to torture him into confessing?" Su Luoxue asked.

"We should have evidence in our hands. It would be even better if we can sneak into the city lord's mansion."

"What are you going to do?" Xuan Moyin asked after calming down.

"Get a good rest tonight, and go to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow to see if you can find a way to sneak in." Su Luoxue said.

"it is good".

The two went back to their rooms to rest.

……

The next day, the two got up early, left the inn, and walked south in the direction the innkeeper said.

After about half a quarter of an hour, a large house surrounded by high walls appeared in front of us. The gate of the house was tall and thick, made of mahogany. There were exquisite patterns carved on the door, showing the owner's power and strong financial resources. Hanging on the gate was a plaque made of mahogany, with two large gold-plated characters on it: "Luo Mansion."

Su Luoxue looked around and found a wonton shop a little further away opposite the mansion, so she walked over with Xuan Moyin.

When the wontons were served on the table, Xuan Moyin was still staring at the door coldly.

"It's very good, even more magnificent than my palace." He said in a low voice, gritting his teeth.

"Eat." Su Luoxue reminded him to eat the wontons quickly.

"Oh, I heard that the City Lord's Mansion is recruiting guards and a cook." Someone at the next table said.

"Why don't we give it a try?" someone asked.

"Forget about being a cook. I'm not a woman. But you can try being a guard. I heard that the salary is one or two taels of silver a month!" said another.

"Let's go and try it together later."

"Okay, eat quickly."

When Su Luoxue and Xuan Moyin heard this, they looked at each other. They already had a tacit understanding and could understand each other's thoughts at a glance.

After eating the wontons, the two walked one after the other into a remote alley. When they came out, Su Luoxue had turned into a middle-aged woman with a somewhat ugly appearance. This was what Xuan Moyin insisted on. He didn't want his beautiful wife to be targeted by someone with ill intentions.

He himself had become a burly middle-aged hunter, and his face was painted a little darker by Su Luoxue.

The two men walked out of the alley, one in front and one behind, towards the toilet door of the Luo Mansion. There were already several men waiting there who wanted to enter the mansion as guards. Some of them who knew each other were whispering to each other with their heads down, meaning that they should go in together so that they could take care of each other.

Xuan Moyin also walked behind these people and waited. Su Luoxue stood alone aside. When the others saw more people coming, they turned around and looked at them. They saw that the two of them were not good-looking, but the man was a little more burly.

After looking at Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue, the others didn't pay much attention and continued to wait at the door, muttering to themselves.

After waiting for about an incense stick's time, I heard a creaking sound and the side door was opened from the inside. A thin man who looked like a manager came out, followed by a little follower.

Seeing the manager coming out, the people outside immediately quieted down and stood there obediently.

"Do you all want to be guards?" asked the thin steward.

"Yes, my lord"

"Okay, line up." The manager said, and saw Su Luoxue standing on the side.

When Su Luoxue saw the manager looking at her, she immediately walked forward with a smile.

"Sir, I heard that your family is still looking for a cook. What do you think of me?"

"You..." The manager glanced at Su Luoxue, who looked rather ugly.

Then she pointed to a small side door and said, "Go over there. That's the back door of the kitchen. Nanny Zhou is in charge of the cook's affairs."

Su Luoxue hurriedly thanked the manager, glanced at Xuan Moyin inconspicuously, and walked towards the small side door of the kitchen.

When she arrived at the side door, Su Luoxue knocked a few times, neither too loud nor too soft.

A little girl opened the door and heard that Su Luoxue was here to apply for the position of cook. She said, "Wait a moment. I'll go get Madam Zhou."

After saying that, he closed the door again.

After a while, footsteps were heard from the door, and a fat middle-aged woman opened the door and walked out.

Su Luoxue guessed that this must be that Nanny Zhou.

Nanny Zhou took a look at Su Luoxue who was standing outside. She was dark, thin, short, and a little ugly.

He shook his head, said nothing, turned around and was about to close the door and go in.

Seeing this, Su Luoxue hurried forward, grasped Madam Zhou's hand, and said with a smile: "You must be Madam Zhou! Madam, don't look at me because I look a little ugly, but my cooking is delicious."

Then, Su Luoxue listed dozens of dishes that are popular among modern people.

After hearing her mention so many dishes that she had never heard of before, Nanny Zhou looked at her again.

"You can do all these?" she asked, looking at the inconspicuous skinny clown woman in front of her.
