Master of Rebirth

On the way from the capital to southern Yunnan, Wang Qi has been worrying about how to coax Zhao Jing to Xiangxi.Now that he learned that Dong Jue was taken captive in Xiangxi, a shapeless plan emerged in his mind.

If Dong Jue was asked to lie about meeting the third uncle in Xiangxi, wouldn't that be enough reason?Even if Zhao Jing didn't go there himself, it would be great if he could send someone to Xiangxi.As long as Moji Khan is found, everything will be easy to talk about.

Thinking of this, Wang Qi couldn't help frowning. After all, Xu Baichuan and others are not easy to be fooled, so the explanation should be more thorough, so as not to leave flaws.Furthermore, Dong Jue's status is unknown at the moment, if he doesn't cooperate well, everything will be in vain.

After thinking for a while, the three of them arrived at the inn.Ma Gui had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw Wang Qi, he rushed up and said, "My lord, you are here. Our young master has woken up and has been waiting for you."

Wang Qi didn't bother, and followed Ma Gui directly to the second floor.

After a night's rest, Dong Jue finally regained some energy, and his complexion improved a lot.Seeing Wang Qi, Dong Jue was so sad and happy that he didn't know what to say for a while.

Knowing that the two hadn't seen each other for such a long time, Yanwu must have a lot to say to Wang Qi when they reunited in a foreign land and Dong Jue was rescued by Wang Qi, so he took Tao Rui and Ma Gui back out wisely.

Although Dong Jue and Wang Qi had disputes, after all, they grew up together since they were young, and no one wanted to give up their friendship for so many years.Coupled with the fact that Wang Qi has been missing for many years, it is a lie to say that she is not worried.Now that they met, Dong Jue felt that thousands of words were stuck in his throat, but he didn't know how to speak.

The two sat facing each other, neither of them spoke.Dong Jue pondered for a while, and then he said gruffly, "I was wrong about the past, please forgive me, Brother Qiongju."

Seeing that he had apologized, Wang Qi naturally couldn't be let down, and hurriedly said: "What did Brother Wushuang say, I am not completely responsible for what happened back then, I hope Brother Wushuang will not be offended."

The two looked at each other and smiled in relief.

In fact, no one is right or wrong in the past, it's just that we have different positions and ideas.Now Dong Jue was tired by Chen Xiu and almost died.What will happen in the future, I believe he has an idea in his mind.If you are still obsessed with caring about the face of family affection, others will not be able to persuade you even if you wear your mouth.

"Brother Qiongju, where have you been all these years? How come you don't even know about Qi Xing?" Poured a glass of water for Wang Qi, and Dong Jue said, "I thought you were still angry with me, so that's why you didn't let Qi Xing know." Xing told me."

Wang Qi smiled and said: "Brother Wu Shuang misunderstood, Qi Xing really didn't know where I was going. During that time, I traveled around, but the news was blocked wherever I went, and I also lost contact with Qi Xing."

"Brother Qiongju is handsome." Dong Jue teased him, and then asked, "However, why did you come here?"

If Dong Jue was asked to help lie, he would have to mention Wang Yao's disappearance.Wang Qi didn't hide it from him, and said directly: "I'm here to find my third uncle."

Hearing this, Dong Jue couldn't help being taken aback, "Didn't Mr. Wang return to Beijing to report on his duties? I heard from Qi Xing that Mrs. Wang has already been taken to the capital by him."

"My third uncle did not return to Beijing. My grandma was taken to the capital by a friend of mine. All these years, my third uncle has been working in southern Yunnan and has never left." After the assassination of Moji Khan, Wang Yao The story of whereabouts are unknown, Wang Qi sighed, and said: "After learning about the accident with the third uncle, grandma was hit hard and passed away within a few days. I came here after taking care of grandma's funeral. I hope I can find out the whereabouts of the third uncle."

"Although I knew that Mr. Wang was demoted because of the affair with the prime minister, I didn't expect him to come to southern Yunnan." The assassination of Moji Khan caused a great commotion in Daliang, so Dong Jue had heard of it.He looked at Wang Qi and comforted him: "Brother Qiongju, don't worry too much. Mr. Wang is auspicious, and he will be fine."

Even though he said this, Dong Jue also knew in his heart that almost all officials, big and small, in southern Yunnan were killed by the Baiyi tribe. It is said that their heads were hung all over the city wall.Wang Yao is getting old, and he is a powerless civil servant, how can he compete with the ferocious southern barbarians?The chances of him escaping are unlikely.

"Hey, until now, I don't have any hope, I just want to do my best." Knowing that Wang Yao's situation is not optimistic, Wang Qi sighed: "Thinking about the bright side, everything has a contingency, maybe the third uncle would Can the old man get away with it?"

"That's true." Dong Jue looked up at Wang Qi as if he had remembered something, and said, "Brother Qiongju, I have something to do, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Seeing his anxious face, Wang Qi smiled and said, "There is nothing inappropriate between you and me."

"A few days ago, I seemed to see Mr. Wang, but at that time, I was far away, and I couldn't see it clearly. I just thought it looked like him. Because I always thought that Mr. Wang was in the capital, and it was absolutely impossible to appear here, so I felt dazzled. Wrong." Dong Jue frowned, very uncertain.

Really come here for whatever you want, if Dong Jue really met the third uncle in Xiangxi, it would save a lot of trouble.Wang Qi came to her senses and hurriedly asked, "Where did Brother Wushuang see my third uncle?"

Thinking about it carefully, Dong Jue said: "It was in a small town in western Hunan. At that time we were driven away by those barbarians, and we stayed at the market in that small town for a while. That man was standing in the crowd watching But he didn't seem to know me, and he was dragged away by the people around him after standing for a while. At that time, I thought it was probably the wrong person, so I didn't pay much attention."

After Dong Jue was sold to these barbarian tribes by bandits, he inquired about the locals who were also imprisoned, and he knew what would happen to him.Today, although Xiangxi is nominally the land of Daliang, the land is barren with many mountains and ridges, and there is no oil and water. In addition, there are many foreigners and bandits, and it belongs to the three-way zone.It is unlikely that the government will save someone, and the chance of escaping is to meet an acquaintance and buy him out.

During that time, Dong Jue watched the passers-by on the road eagerly every day, desperately hoping to meet an acquaintance, even if it was just a one-time relationship.In that state of mind, it is normal to see everyone familiar, and to admit mistakes.

Wang Qi knew that a businessman like Dong Jue, who had been doing business all year round, would not have a photographic memory for faces, but he would never be face blind.Especially those with official titles, they can remember almost everything they have seen.Although Dong Jue only met Wang Yao once, it was several years ago, but he should not be mistaken.However, it doesn't matter if you are wrong, no matter whether the person is Wang Yao or not, as long as you have this opportunity, you will have a legitimate reason to go to Xiangxi.

Thinking that Wang Yao might still be alive, Wang Qi was still slightly excited, "Brother Wushuang, can you tell me where the town is? When did you meet my third uncle?"

"Brother Qiongju, don't have too much hope. I was tired and hungry, dizzy and dizzy. I really wasn't sure." Seeing that Wang Qi was interested, Dong Jue was afraid that his joy would be in vain, so he hurriedly explained road.

Wang Qi said firmly: "Brother Wushuang, you don't have to worry. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I don't want to give up."

Dong Jue really wanted to help Wang Qi, seeing what he said, he tried hard to recall what happened that day.It's a pity that he just glanced at the crowd and couldn't remember too many details, so he could only provide the specific time and place name as much as possible.

For Wang Qi, these are enough, "Brother Wushuang, can I trouble you with one more thing?"

"Look at what you said, if you have anything to do, just ask brother Qiongju, brother, I will try my best to do it." Dong Jue said hurriedly.

Wang Qi said: "No matter who asks you in the future, you must insist that you really met my third uncle in Xiangxi."

"Why?" Dong Jue was taken aback.

Patting him on the shoulder, Wang Qi said, "You're doing brother the greatest favor just by saying that."

"If that's the case, that's fine." Dong Jue agreed even though he was puzzled.

Instructing Dong Jue to rest in the inn, Wang Qi took Yan Wu and Tao Rui back.

"Tao Rui, do you know there is a small town called Dabei in western Hunan?" Wang Qi asked on the way back.

Tao Rui laughed and said, "You know, this place is not far from here. If you ride a horse, you can get there in less than a day. What do you ask me?"

"Nothing." Wang Qi said.

Yan Wu looked at his words, and saw that Wang Qi had been frowning after coming out of Dong Jue, so he knew something was wrong.

"That's fine, why did Prince Wang ask about Dabei Town? But what did you hear from Dong Jue?" Yan Wu asked with a smile.

If you go to Xiangxi, you will definitely not be able to hide it from Yanwu.Since he asked first, Wang Qi took advantage of the situation and said, "Brother Wushuang just told me that he saw my third uncle in Dabei Town."

Yan Wu didn't even think about it, and said directly: "This is impossible. Even if Mr. Wang is still alive, it is impossible for him to go there."

"Oh, although this Dabei town belongs to western Hunan, isn't western Hunan and southern Yunnan next to each other? Why can't my third uncle go there?" Wang Qi raised her eyebrows and asked.

Yan Wu smiled and said, "Young Master Wang doesn't understand the topography of southern Yunnan and western Hunan. Such misunderstandings are inevitable. Although southern Yunnan and western Hunan are next to each other, there are mountains, forests and swamps at the junction, and there is no serious road at all. Unless you are very familiar with the environment in the forest, you will have no way out. Although Dabei Town is in the westernmost part of Xiangxi, if people from the south of Yunnan want to go there, they usually go to Hani Town first instead of going directly The truth about the past in southern Yunnan. Even if Lord Wang is still alive, he has fled to Hani Town, and there is no reason to go to Dabei."

"Southern Yunnan is currently under the control of the Baiyi tribe, and no one knows what the internal situation is." Wang Qishi calmly said: "Maybe the situation at that time did not allow the third uncle to come to Hani Town, so he had to venture to Dabei Town?"

Seeing that Wang Qi was obsessed with obsession, Yan Wu paused for a moment, and then said: "Young Master Wang, this subordinate said something unpleasant. The matter has passed for so long, and it is unlikely that Mr. Wang will survive. Even if he is still alive, no one will Leading the way, it is impossible for him to walk to Dabei Town from southern Yunnan."

Although Yan Wu was telling the truth, he also wanted to prevent Wang Qi from going to Hani Town.He didn't care about Wang Yao's life or death, but worried that Wang Qi would affect Zhao Jing.If Wang Qi insisted on going to Dabei Town to find Wang Yao, it would definitely distract Zhao Jing.

Seeing that Yan Wu's tone was heavy and his face was not good-looking, Wang Qi knew what he was worried about, and hurriedly said: "General Yan Wu, where are the guards of the Zhengxihou Mansion who sent letters to my third uncle in southern Yunnan? "

"There is no news yet." Among the guards who sent the letter, one or two people had a good friendship with Yan Wu. Thinking of their lives and deaths so far, Yan Wu's mood became even more depressed.

Wang Qi said: "It's a long way from southern Yunnan to the capital, and Zhengxihou's Mansion has always been considerate in handling things. I'm afraid those guards are not only going to deliver letters to my third uncle, but also escort him all the way back to the capital."

"The people were sent by my elder brother. As for the specific tasks they received, I don't know." Yan Wu didn't think about this. He looked at Wang Qi and asked: "My lord, why are you asking this? Does it have anything to do with Master Wang appearing in Hani Town?"

Wang Qi smiled and said: "The guards of Zhengxihou's Mansion have been fighting in the southwest area all year round. They must be very familiar with this area. Maybe some of them know the terrain from southern Yunnan to Hani Town? My third uncle doesn't know martial arts. If there is no one to protect , it is definitely impossible to escape. If the guards of your mansion were ordered to escort my third uncle back to the capital, they must have been together before they arrived in the capital. Could it be the guards of your mansion who rescued my third uncle and brought him back to the capital? What about Harney Town?"

If there are guards from the Hou Mansion to help, there is indeed such a possibility.Yan Wu couldn't help frowning, because judging from the time, they always thought that those guards should have gone back before Moji Khan was assassinated, but there was an accident before they left South Yunnan, so their whereabouts were unknown , never thought that they might be with Wang Yao all the time.

Wang Qi went on to say: "The assassination of Moji Khan is complicated and confusing. The people involved are basically dead, and most of the voice is with the Baiyi people. Although my third uncle is a small official, he is a member of the yamen after all. Maybe they will know some inside information. If they were lucky enough to witness the assassination of Moji Khan, wouldn't it be very helpful for us to investigate the truth of the matter?

"What Prince Wang said is true." Yan Wu was persuaded, his eyes lit up, and he wished he could rush back to the barracks to report the news to Zhao Jing.

At this moment, a carriage stopped beside them. Tao Rui got off the carriage and said to Wang Qi, "My lord, please get in the carriage."

Helping Wang Qi into the car, Yan Wu drove the driver aside, took the reins from his hand, and said, "I'll drive."

Wang Qi knew that he was about to return home, so she didn't stop him.

The carriage was speeding all the way, and it didn't take long to arrive at the place.Yan Wu threw the reins to the coachman and was about to leave.

Wang Qi grabbed him and said, "General Yanwu, what happened today may have a bearing on the life and death of my third uncle and the guards in the house, please don't let irrelevant people know."

Yan Wu understood his concerns, and hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, Mr. Wang, who should be guarded, the subordinates know very well."

After hearing this, Wang Qi let go.Yan Wu cupped his hands at him, and entered the barracks without looking back.

Wang Qi got out of the car, waited for Tao Rui to settle the bill, and then walked in unhurriedly.

Knowing that Yan Wu was definitely going to talk to Xiuwen or Xu Baichuan about this matter, Wang Qi didn't rush to follow, but went back to her barracks, quietly waiting for news.

As soon as Wang Qi finished drinking a cup of tea, the door of the barracks was pushed open.He looked up, and the person who came in was not Yan Wu, but Xu Baichuan.
