Master of Rebirth

After bumping on the boat for several days, they finally arrived in the capital.As soon as she stepped on the ground, Wang Qi's feet were soft and she couldn't stand firmly.

Seeing that Wang Qi almost fell, Zhao Jing hurriedly supported him, and said softly, "Be careful."

Being hugged by a man in public, Wang Qi felt a little uncomfortable, and quickly broke away from him, saying: "I'm fine."

Seeing that Wang Qi was able to stand still, Zhao Jing withdrew his hand.

Wang Qi still felt that the whole ground was shaking, he took a few steps tentatively, and couldn't help saying: "I've been on the boat for a long time, but I don't know how to walk."

"It's the first time you've been on a boat for such a long time. It's normal to not get used to it. You'll be fine after a while." Fearing that he would fall again, Zhao Jing followed him closely, protecting him carefully.

Yan Wu trotted all the way over, and said: "Young Lord, the carriage is ready, shall we go directly to the Hou's Mansion?"

Zhao Jing didn't answer, but looked at Wang Qi and asked, "What do you think?"

"I want to go see her first." Wang Qi said.

"Okay, I'll accompany you there." Knowing who Wang Qi was talking about, Zhao Jing agreed without hesitation.

Yan Wu held him back, and said in a somewhat embarrassed way: "Young Master, please return to the Hou Mansion now, saying that you have something to discuss."

Wang Qi was very uncomfortable with Zhao Jing following around. After hearing this, Wang Qi hurriedly said, "Go and do your work. I'll just go there by myself."

"Okay then, I'll let Yanwu accompany you there, and wait for you to have dinner together in the evening." Zhao Jing hesitated, but agreed.

After a few more instructions to Yanwu, an attendant came over with a horse.Zhao Jing got on the horse, turned the horse's head and galloped away.That valiant and heroic posture and flowing movements caused many people around the pier to look sideways and refused to leave for a long time.

Looking at those girls whose faces were red because of Zhao Jing, Wang Qi felt uncomfortable.He had known for a long time that Zhao Jing's looks must be very attractive to women, but he didn't expect him to be so popular.I am afraid that among the famous ladies in the capital, there are many who are in love with Zhao Jing.

"My lord, let's go. The place where the old lady lives is far away from here. It's better to go on the road earlier. In the evening, you will have dinner with the young master." Seeing Wang Qi being in a daze, Yan Wu was beside her. urged.

"It's time to work." Came back to his senses, Wang Qi cupped his hands at Yanwu.

Yan Wu helped Wang Qi get into the carriage, and he himself also got into the carriage.The boy driving the carriage raised his whip, and the carriage quickly merged into the crowd of people coming and going.

After walking staggeringly for half an hour, the carriage finally stopped in front of a small courtyard.Yan Wu lifted the curtain of the car and helped Wang Qi out of the car.

Asking the chauffeur to knock on the door, Yan Wu looked at Wang Qi and said, "This yard was given to the young one by the old lord, and few people usually live in it. After the old lady came to the capital, the young lord chose many places. Either I thought it was too noisy or I didn’t think it was unique enough. Later, I saw that it was quiet and suitable for recuperation, so I let the old lady live here.”

Wang Qi raised her head and looked at the house, coming from the gate, it should be a rather unique small courtyard.Although the surrounding is secluded, the environment is good.In the capital where every inch of land is expensive, it is not easy to find such a single-family courtyard.

"Go in later, and you can take a look at this garden. The young master said that if there is something inappropriate, we can change it to another place." Yan Wu continued.

It has to be said that this yard and the surrounding environment are very much in Wang Qi's mind.It seems that Zhao Jing placed Wang and Li according to his preferences.But it's a pity, Wang Lishi likes to be lively, so if she lives here, she will probably be suffocated to death.Wang Qi thought to herself, even if she was not satisfied, Mrs. Wang and Li would not live for a few days, so there was really no need to go back and forth.

"It's pretty good here." Wang Qi said with a smile.

Seeing that Wang Qi was not displeased with Zhao Jing's arrangement, Yan Wu heaved a sigh of relief, and continued: "Young Lord knows that Mrs. Wang needs to rest in peace, and usually doesn't let people come to disturb her. Granny Ma knows that Mrs. Wang In the capital, I said that I wanted to visit, but the young master refused."

Ma Pozi is Zhao Jing's grandmother, and she is very important to Zhao Jing.She is willing to visit Wang Li Shi, on the surface, it is to give Wang Li Shi face.I don't know why Yanwu said this to him specifically, Wang Qi smiled, but didn't make a sound.

Because he knew that Mrs. Ma would never sincerely visit Mrs. Wang and Li.Under the guise of visiting, she probably has other plans.Zhao Jing was unwilling to let Mrs. Ma come, probably because of this consideration.But with Mrs. Ma's ability, even if Zhao Jing doesn't let her come, as long as she is willing, she can find a way to achieve her goal.

Thinking of this, Wang Qi couldn't help sneering.It's a pity that Mrs. Ma is going to miscalculate after all.Although Wang Li's intentions are not righteous, but the city is not deep, this kind of person is only suitable to be a gun leader who incites the flames.Right now he has nothing, and he is unknown in the capital.Even if there is some gossip, it will have no effect on him, but if Zhao Jing is involved, the gain will outweigh the loss.Wang Qi couldn't help wondering, what could Mrs. Ma get from Mrs. Wang and Li?

Seeing Wang Qi furrowing her brows tightly, she seemed to be worried about something.Thinking that he was worried that Mrs. Ma would say something bad in front of Mrs. Wang and Li, Yan Wu hurriedly added: "Don't worry, Mrs. Ma doesn't know that Mrs. Wang lives here. And the young master also ordered Mrs. Wang If you are in poor health, don’t let people disturb you at will.”

After hearing this, Wang Qi smiled.Although he didn't think Zhao Jing could guard against Mrs. Ma, if that was the case, then Wang and Li would really be no different from going to jail.But he was very curious, if Wang Li was in good health, what kind of flowers could be brewed when she and Mrs. Ma got together.However, according to Mrs. Ma's city and scheming, she probably doesn't like Wang Li.

Seeing that Wang Qi's face was not so serious, Yan Wu let go of his worries.

While the two were talking, the servant had already knocked on the door.

The servant who opened the door didn't know Wang Qi, but he knew Yan Wu.Seeing someone, he rushed up to greet him and said, "Young Master Yanwu, you are back."

"How is the old lady?" Yan Wu didn't hesitate and asked directly.

The man shook his head and said: "It's not very good, the doctor said, unless there is an elixir to extend life. Otherwise, it will be just a few days."

If Wang Li's situation is really not optimistic, he has to prepare for the funeral.Wang Yao is her only surviving son, so he must come back to take care of him.Thinking of this, Wang Qi quickly asked, "I heard that you have already notified my third uncle. I wonder if he has arrived?"

The servant looked at Wang Qi, and asked suspiciously: "I wonder if this son's third uncle is...?"

"Oh, this prince is the grandson of the old lady." Yan Wu pointed to Wang Qi and introduced.

"Small eyes, Mr. Wang, forgive me." The servant hurriedly saluted Wang Qi, and then said: "The letter has already been sent, counting the days, there should have been a reply. But there is no reply from Mr. Wang. For any news, it may be that the mountains are high and the road is far away, and we will have to wait for a few days."

The place where Wang Yao works is indeed a bit remote, and it is normal that he will not receive news for a while.Wang Qi nodded and said, "Please, brother, take me to see grandma."

"This way please, Prince."

Wang Lishi was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his face was dry and sallow, like withered bark, no different from ordinary old people who were terminally ill, and he did not have the bitter and domineering look in the past.

Seeing Wang Qi, the old woman who was waiting at the side was stunned for a moment, then rushed over as if she had found the backbone, threw herself at Wang Qi's feet and cried, "My lord, you are here."

A few months ago, she happily boarded the carriage to the capital with Wang Lishi. She thought that she could finally leave Pingyao County, which taunted and pointed at them, and come to the capital to live a good life.Unexpectedly, the good life is indeed going on, but it is like being in prison, with trembling every day, and seldom even leaves the door.

"Get up." The old lady in front of her had followed the Wang and Li family for more than ten years. Even after the fall of the Wang family, she did not leave and kept following her to serve her. This was a rare loyalty.

Sitting by the bed, Wang Qi looked at the motionless Wang and Li, and asked, "How is grandma?"

The old woman wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said: "The old lady has not had any water or rice for several days, she has been sleeping in a drowsy state, even if she wakes up, she is full of nonsense, she keeps talking about the two masters and the second young master... ..."

Speaking of this, the old woman remembered that Wang Qi and the Second Master's family had been fighting each other, and she quickly shut up.

After laughing, Wang Qi didn't bother with the old woman.He has always known that Wang Li's favorite is herself, followed by her two sons, the second uncle and the third uncle.In her heart, there are only these two sons, even if Wang and Li are dead, she will miss them.As for their father and son, as long as they don't live better than her two darlings, it doesn't matter how they live.If Mrs. Wang and Li would recite the names of their father and son in the ramblings, then she was either having a nightmare or had no good intentions.

"Where's Bao'er?" Wang Qi asked instead.

This treasure is the nickname of Wang Long's son Wang Jing.According to Zhao Jing, when he picked up Mrs. Wang and Li, he also brought this nephew.

"The young master is really tired after taking care of the old lady all night, so he went back to his room to rest." The old woman said with a smile, "Do you want the old slave to go over and ask him to greet the eldest son?"

Wang Qi is Wang Jing's uncle, the elders come here, and the juniors come to pay their respects is the minimum rule, there is no need to ask for instructions.

However, Wang Qi was not surprised that the old woman could ask such a question.Back then in the Wang family, he had no status as the eldest son.Unexpectedly, after so many years, the Wang family has disappeared, but the consciousness of the Wang family's servants is deeply rooted in their minds!

Knowing that the old woman didn't really want to call Wang Jing, Wang Qi smiled and said, "No need, let him rest."

"Yes." The old woman really did not insist.

Although she knew they were picked up by Zhao Jing, Wang Qi was still very curious about why Mrs. Wang and Li were willing to follow Zhao Jing, so she asked, "How did you get to the capital?"

"This..." The old woman hesitated for a moment, and when she saw that there was no one around, she opened her mouth, "Someone came to the house a few years ago and said that it was under the order of the third master to take the old lady and the young master to the capital. They said three The master bought a house in Beijing and wanted to take the old lady to the capital for the New Year. When the third master was there before, the third master did promise the old lady that he would definitely pick her up. At that time, the old lady didn't think much, so she happily followed gone."

Hearing this, Wang Qi knew that now, they also sensed that something was wrong.

Sure enough, the old lady went on to say: "Who knows that I have been in the capital for so long, but I haven't seen the face of the third master. The old lady asked several times, and everyone here said that the third master is busy, and it will take some time to get back." Come back together."

Nodding her head, Wang Qi didn't intend to expose it, and said directly: "Third uncle is busy with affairs, which is inevitable. The people here treat you well."

"The people here treat us well." The old woman said, "Everything is the best for food and clothing, better than when the second master was here. They also sent several maids to serve the old lady. It's just... don't let them go out casually."

Wang Qi smiled and said: "Beijing is at the foot of the emperor, there are many powerful people, and there are many things. The third uncle's identity is sensitive, and it is inevitable to keep a low profile in dealing with others."

"Yes, what you said is true." Wang Qi's words reassured the old woman's doubts. Thinking about it carefully, there is no one who kidnaps a ticket and spends a lot of money to pay for the meat ticket.

Wang Qi changed the subject and said with a smile: "But it's hard for grandma, her old man always likes to be lively, so I don't know if she can stay?"

"This..." The old woman smiled embarrassedly, and said: "At first, the old lady was unwilling, crying and clamoring to see the third master. But after all, she is old and can't help making a fuss. After a while, she Then I thought about it."

After hearing this, Wang Qi couldn't help raising her eyebrows.Wang Lishi has always been bullying and shy, the more you lift her up, the more tempered she will be.On the contrary, only by being more violent than her can he cure her.It is impossible for this kind of person to think about it on his own. It is estimated that Zhao Jing used some extraordinary means to scare her, and Wang Lishi was honest.

But Wang Qi didn't pursue Zhao Jing's intention of intimidating his grandma, seeing the servant girl came in, the old woman obviously didn't want to say anything more, Wang Qi simply said: "You go down and rest, I'll just stay with grandma. "

The old woman was indeed tired, she hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Then the old slave will go down, if the eldest son needs anything, just ask the servant girl to call me."

After dismissing the old woman, Wang Qi silently watched the two maids bring warm water to help Mrs. Wang and Li wipe her hands and face.Mrs. Wang and Li never showed any intention of waking up, and just lay there, accepting people's mercy.Wang Qi couldn't help sneering, "Grandma really enjoys a blessed life, and when it's time to come, there are still people waiting for her."

"My lord, I need to see you." At this time, Yan Wu said outside the door.

Because the one who was sick was a female member of the Wang family, Yanwu had no way to go into the inner room to visit, so he had to wait outside.

Getting up and going out, Wang Qi asked, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, it's time for us to go back." Yan Wu looked at the sky and said, "Young Master said, I'm waiting for you to have dinner together. If you go back late, I'm afraid we won't be able to make it in time for dinner."

Only then did Wang Qi remember what Zhao Jing had said before leaving, but he didn't take it to heart at all at the time, unexpectedly Yan Wu took it seriously.

"Grandma is seriously ill, and I want to stay here today to take care of her elderly. Please go back and plead to the young master for me, and you can't have dinner with him." Wang Qi cupped her hands at Yanwu.

When the two separated, Zhao Jing went straight back to the Hou Mansion.Wang Qi didn't want to enter the Hou's mansion, let alone have dinner with Zhao Jing in the Hou's mansion.

"This..." Yan Wu couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

Wang Qi hurriedly said: "Looking at grandma's situation, it may be possible at any time... How dare I leave at will? I hope Brother Yanwu will accommodate."

After saying this, Wang Qi made a big salute to Yan Wu.

"It can't be done." Naturally, Yan Wu didn't dare to accept Wang Qi's gift, he hurriedly helped him up, and said: "If that's the case, this subordinate will go back and tell the young master."
