Master of Rebirth

When Wang Qi left the private room, he saw Yan Wu sitting outside drinking tea, accompanied by a servant from Gu Baozhai.

"Didn't you want to see antiques? Why didn't you go?" Wang Qi asked with a smile.

"Anyway, I don't understand, so I won't make a fool of myself." Seeing him coming out, Yan Wu hurriedly stood up.

Wang Qi thought: "It seems that Yan Wu is also knowledgeable and interesting. Gu Baozhai has a lot of treasures. Since I don't want to buy it, I don't need to look at it. If something is missing or accidentally damaged, it will be troublesome. "

"I have also collected some collections in the bamboo garden. If Brother Yanwu is interested, you can follow me to have a look." Wang Qi said with a smile.

Yan Wu cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your kindness. I will definitely go see it when I have the opportunity. Mr. Wang and your friend are finished talking, can we go?"

Wang Qi said, "Well, let's go."

Seeing Wang Qi's complexion, it was expected that he and Dong Jue had a bad conversation, so Yan Wu didn't ask any further questions, and went out of Gubaozhai directly with Wang Qi.

"Brother Yanwu, I want to go back to Zhuyuan for a few days." Sitting on the carriage, Wang Qi said.

Yan Wu didn't ask him why he suddenly changed his mind, and said simply: "Okay, my subordinate will take you back. When the young master comes back, my subordinate will come to Zhuyuan to inform you."

"If that's the case, I'll have to work." Wang Qi cupped her hands and said.

Yan Wu sent Wang Qi back to the bamboo garden and then went back.

Seeing Wang Qi enter the door, Qi Xing was overjoyed and hurried up to greet him, "Master, you are back."

"I've been away for a few days, what's going on in the mansion?" Wang Qi asked after handing the cloak to Qi Xing.

Qi Xing said: "It's nothing serious, it's just that Mr. Dong Er came to look for you a few times."

"Didn't I say that if you have something to do, send me a letter from Zhu's Mansion." Wang Qi said.

Qi Xing hesitated for a moment, then said: "The younger one sent someone to deliver the letter, but Mr. Dong still said he didn't see you. Because you told me before you left, don't reveal your whereabouts to anyone, and the younger one didn't." Dare to talk about the Zhu family's mansion with Second Young Master Dong."

The Zhu family's mansion is the house next to the garden where they live. Zhao Jing told him that the person who bought the house bought the two houses together in order to deceive people.Therefore, although the two houses are owned by the same owner, in the eyes of outsiders, they are two houses.

A few days ago, Wang Qi and Zhao Jing often turned upside down in the morning and evening, not knowing what year it is.The people in Zhu's mansion may have been afraid of disturbing the master's interest, or there were other reasons, so they didn't report in time.

Knowing this, Qi Xing couldn't be blamed, Wang Qi said: "You are right, tell me what Dong Jue wants from me?"

"Second Master Dong didn't say anything, but I feel that it should be related to Mr. Chen's affairs." Qi Xing said.

Wang Qi said, "What happened to Chen Xiu?"

"Young master, haven't you heard of such a big event?" Qi Xing said in shock.

Being questioned for the second time today, Wang Qi couldn't help being taken aback, "Is it a big deal?"

"It's a big deal." Qi Xing said excitedly.

Sitting down in the main hall and drinking another cup of tea, Wang Qi learned the whole story of Chen Xiu's accident from Qi Xing.

It turned out that Chen Xiu introduced a business through Dong Jue's elder brother, Dong Chen. Who would have thought that the rich and powerful man passed Dong Chen and contacted Chen Xiu directly, and made an additional order, which was even more expensive than the last time? Be substantial.

Seeing the huge number this time, there is no Dong Chen to supervise and check.Chen Xiu thought again, and repeated the old trick, adding a small portion of apples that were about to rot to make up for the huge amount of fresh apples.I thought I would get away with it, but who would have thought that something would happen.

"That batch of fruit was sold to the military, and the person introduced by Mr. Dong just drew a line from the middle. If you want to blame it, you can blame Mr. Chen for his bad luck. After the fruit was packed and sent over, someone from the military camp came to inspect and accept it, and specified what to do. Open the box and inspect the goods. It turned out to be such a coincidence that one box of apples that was about to rot was opened out of so many boxes."

While Qi Xing sighed, he also showed a bit of gloating, "Actually, if this matter is left alone, it's nothing. If you find something broken, just make up a new box. Unfortunately, due to the incident in Jiangyang County, the higher-ups will check these things. Illegal fruit merchants are being investigated closely, and when military use is involved, the nature has changed. There is this box of rotten apples standing there, and there is no need for other boxes to be opened. Mr. Chen was charged with deceiving the superior that day. was thrown into prison."

Wang Qi said: "This is entirely Chen Xiu's own fault, there is nothing to say."

"Young master is right." Qi Xing poured tea for him, and said: "People in the county say that Mr. Chen shot himself in the foot with a stone, and he deserved it."

Wang Qi was very grateful and said: "When I heard Dong Chen introduce this business to Chen Xiu, I knew I would suffer. Dong Chen, who is not involved now, is already a blessing in misfortune."

"That's right, this Mr. Chen is also a villain. If the fruit merchant in Jiangyang County had an accident and cut off the supply of goods, the military would not have approached Mr. Chen. Who would have thought that Mr. Chen would also be sprained. It happened to be a pair with that person, let's go to trial together." Qi Xing said happily.

Wang Qi knew that Qi Xing had always complained to Chen Xiu because of the drug administration last time, but no matter how you look at it, it was Chen Xiu's own fault, so what's the use of Dong Jue looking for him?

"I can't solve this matter, what's the use of Brother Wu Shuang looking for me?" Wang Qi took a sip of tea and said.

Qi Xing hurriedly said: "Young master, you don't know, I heard that the high official sent to investigate the case happened to be the third master. Chen Xiu is now in the hands of the third master, and the second son Dong is looking for you. I'm afraid he also wants to invite you. Let the third master intercede for his brother-in-law."

Wang Qi had heard what Yan Wu said about Hu's accident, and was not surprised.He knew that the imperial court specially appointed officials to investigate the case, and Ah Man was only responsible for assisting.But what he didn't expect was that the official sent by the imperial court was actually his third uncle Wang Yao.

"Has Third Uncle come back?" Wang Qi asked.

Qi Xing said: "I'm back, but I didn't come to our Pingyao County. I heard that the third master has been in the county all the time, and Mr. Chen is also squatting in the prison there."

Hu Cai is from Jiangyang County, and both Jiangyang County and Pingyao County belong to Jeju County.If Hu Cai's case can be personally interrogated by the imperial envoy who came down from the labor capital, it will definitely be reported to the county.As the minister handling the case, Wang Yao would naturally try the case in the county if the evidence was convincing.

"Is there any movement from the second uncle?" Wang Qi asked.

Qi Xing said: "I heard that people were sent to the county to greet the third master, but they were all sent back. Right now the third master is busy, so I'm afraid he won't be in the mood to pay attention to family matters. Young master, we have already cut off our family Even if there is any movement over there, it will be hidden from us."

"What you said is true." Wang Qi said: "I have severed ties with my family long ago, and I have not had much contact with my third uncle these years. Not to mention that this incident has caused such a big sensation, even if it is just an insignificant matter, what I said third uncle would He might not listen. He came to me, but I couldn't help him."

Qi Xing said: "The younger one also knows that this matter will embarrass you, so the second son Dong came over, and the younger one is not so determined to inform you."

Knowing that Qi Xing and the others wished for Chen Xiu's misfortune, naturally they would not want to help him intercede, Wang Qi didn't blame him, and said with a smile: "It's alright, alright, you can go to work."

"Yes." Qi Xing was about to leave, when he suddenly thought of something, he turned back and said, "Young master, Lianyi told me a few days ago that she wanted to work in Linglongzhai. She made a very strong idea and begged me repeatedly A few days."

"Alright, why did she suddenly want to work in Linglongzhai?" Wang Qi asked suspiciously.

Qi Xing said: "Maybe it's because I have been staying in the bamboo garden all the time, and I can't be idle. You are rarely in the mansion, and you don't entertain guests very much. She doesn't even have a chance to play the piano to add to the fun. Now even the two servants around her The maids are also married, so only Xiao Cui will accompany them. It is boring enough for two people to stay in the garden every day."

Wang Qi thought so too, Lianyi is now 20 years old, and among the girls who have not left the cabinet, she is considered relatively older.

Since Zhao Aman left, Lianyi mentioned that she wanted to serve Wang Qi's room, but he directly refused.Wang Qi originally wanted Lianyi to help Qian Shi take care of the children, but it was a pity that Qian's sister-in-law had a bad temper with Lianyi.Plus Lian Yi is good at playing the piano and dancing, but not very good at taking care of children.Seeing that they really couldn't get along, Wang Qi didn't force her.

In the past few years, apart from going to the temple with Qian's sister-in-law to offer incense on the [-]th day of each month, Lianyi spent the rest of the time in the bamboo garden, which is pitiful to think about.Wang Qi thought, since she is willing to go out and meet people now, it is a good thing.There are many people in Linglong Zhai, and there are also many young men.Maybe we can meet someone who is right for me and get married.

"Since she is willing to go, let her go." Wang Qi said: "Tomorrow you and Mrs. Qian will send her there personally, and tell Wang Sheng not to give her too much work. Let's stay at Wang Sheng's place at night. Let’s just say it’s his cousin who came to join him. Xiaocui, who took care of her, should also go there together, and the two of them can help each other.”

After Wang Sheng got married, Wang Qi bought him a house near Linglongzhai, and now he is a big family member.Wang Sheng's house is big enough, and there are Wang Sheng's wife, mother-in-law and other female relatives. Lianyi lives there, so it is convenient not to talk about it, and no one will gossip.

"Okay." After receiving the order, Qi Xing went down.

Wang Qi lived in Zhuyuan for a few days, always looking forward to Zhao Aman's return soon.It's a pity that Zhao Aman never came back, but Chen Xiu's troubles became more and more troublesome.

"I heard that the man surnamed Hu has been sentenced. Although he was spared the death penalty, he was fined to serve as hard labor in the army, and all his hard-earned family property was confiscated." Qi Xing sighed: "I heard that the big man who helped him get online The official cousin’s brother-in-law was also dismissed.”

Now that the sentence has been handed down, does that mean that Ah Man will be back soon?Thinking of this, Wang Qi quickly asked, "Is this case closed?"

"I'm really not sure about this. Although Hu has been sentenced, he hasn't given an explanation on Mr. Chen's affairs, so we probably have to wait." Qi Xing thought that Wang Qi was concerned about when Wang Yao would come back, so he hurriedly said, "My little one." Knowing that the young master cares about the third master, he sent someone secretly to the county to inquire about it. I heard that the third master has no intention of coming back. After all, the old man is doing business according to orders, not going home to visit relatives. You must dare to enter. You don't know, I heard that the second master is more anxious than us, and I wish I could send people to the county several times a day."

If the third uncle and Ah Man were investigating the case together, and the third uncle had no intention of coming back, then it would be impossible for Ah Man to come so soon.Disappointed in Wang Qi's heart, she couldn't help thinking, "If it comes to unscrupulous businessmen, Second Uncle must bear the brunt of it. It's hard for the surnamed Hu right now, and Second Uncle is deliberately afraid. No wonder he is so anxious to ask Third Uncle for news."

"Chen Daguan is also unlucky. It is a common tactic in the business world to pass off inferior products as good ones. If you do business with ordinary people, if you are found out, you will pay more money. But who would have thought that this is a military business? Qi Xing continued: "I heard that in the past few years since the war, many merchants have delivered inferior goods to the army and made a lot of money for the country. What kind of person is Zheng Xihou, it is impossible for him to be angry. His old man The emperor handed over the paper, and the emperor lifted the table. I heard that many officials have been investigated, and it was the first time that Chen Daguan did business with the army, and it was because he committed too many crimes and finally suffered retribution."

Seeing what Qi Xing said so vividly, it was like seeing the emperor lift the table with his own eyes, Wang Qi couldn't help feeling amused.

However, Qi Xing didn't pay attention to Wang Qi's expression, and was still worried for him, "I heard that the Dong family has been busy with the affairs of Mr. Chen recently, young master, if the second master of the Dong family asks you to come here again, what will you do?" ?”

"If even Second Uncle and the others can't see Third Uncle, what can I do?" Thinking of Dong Jue, Wang Qi also sighed.

As soon as Wang Qi finished speaking, he heard Qi Qing say outside: "Master, Second Young Master Dong is asking to see you."

Looking at each other with Qi Xing, Wang Qi thought helplessly, "I'm really afraid of something."
