Twin Brocade

Chapter 542

The scent of vegetation and flowers in the air only made him regret why he plotted against Quan Moxian in the first place.

But who would have expected that Guan Jinghuan, an important official of the court, would not be able to deal with a mere sixth-rank official who had just entered the official career?It's really not wrong for him to lose this time.

At noon, when he came to a tea house, the jailer tied him to a pillar and stopped to rest.

After walking all morning, Wang Ji felt dizzy, and his mouth was so thirsty that it seemed to be on fire.He leaned on the pillar, staring blankly at the rapeseed field not far away, his lips moved silently, "Water, water..."

"Would you like some water?" A voice sounded beside him, which to Wang Ji was like the sound of nature.

"Yes, yes!" He nodded abruptly.

A rough clay bowl was brought to his mouth, and the voice said: "Drink."

In the past, he wouldn't even look at such a rough clay bowl, but this time he tried to get closer, gulping down the water in the bowl.

After he finished drinking, the voice said: "Wang Ji, do you know who I am?"

Wang Ji was shocked. If he was just a kind passer-by, how would he know his name?Who is this person?
Quenching his thirst, he tried to focus on watching.The face in front of her was young and immature, with a pair of knife-like eyebrows, as if they were about to fly out of her face.But the hatred and disgust for him in his eyes was beyond doubt.

However, he was quite sure that he had never seen this person.

"Who are you?" he asked tremblingly.

"I'm a ghost who came to seek your life." The man leaned into his ear and whispered.

Seeing Wang Ji's sudden change of color, there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, he waved to him, and walked away.He is Quan Moxian's long follower, Liu Steward's closed disciple - Haifeng.

Looking at his expression, Wang Ji knew something was wrong.

There was a cramping pain from the abdomen, there must be something wrong with the water just now!He trembled his lips and wanted to shout, but found that his throat seemed to be blocked and he couldn't cry out.

Who is this person? !

Before he passed out, there was only one last question in Wang Ji's mind.However, he is destined to be only a fool.

The jailer came out after drinking the tea, and saw Wang Ji collapsed beside the pillar, with a foul smell emitting from his body.He covered his nose and scolded, "It's really bad luck!"

After trying Wang Ji's breath, he was still breathing.

"Shopkeeper, is there a doctor around here?" The jailer asked the shopkeeper of the teahouse.

The shopkeeper came out to have a look, and couldn't help cursing bad luck secretly.There are people coming and going here, and what he earns is the meager tea money.If the prisoner died here, wouldn't it affect his business.

Thinking about this, he said: "At the entrance of the village not far ahead, there is a traveling doctor, let's take a look." Turning around, he called two assistants, and together with the jailer, Wang Ji was carried away.

The symptoms of the poison Wang Ji suffered from were very similar to diarrhea. How could a wandering doctor in the countryside tell the difference?Prescribed a prescription and filled it with medicine, but it was just waiting to die.

At night, Wang Ji finally swallowed his last breath.When he was about to die, he couldn't figure out where the enemy was, and he insisted on his life.

For the prison guards, the sentence of exile for three thousand miles is nothing new.He found Lizheng in the village as a guarantee, parked Wang Ji's body in Yizhuang, and returned to Beijing to return to his life.

Wang Ji died silently like this.

Haifeng didn't go away, after the jailer left, he appeared in the Yizhuang at night, confirmed Wang Ji's body with his own eyes, and then left for Beijing.

Five days later, he returned to Quan's house.

"My lord, the thief has been awarded the head." Haifeng reported.

Quan Moxian held Quan Yiting in his arms, when he heard his reply, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, he nodded and said: "Thank you for your hard work, go to Uncle Liu to receive the reward."

So far, the three people who directly killed Lin Chenfei have died, leaving only Guan Jinghuan and Princess Baochang.

Quan Yiting opened his eyes in his arms, clutching at the hem of his clothes.After Lin Chenfei's death, Quan Yiting became more and more attached to him.As long as he goes home, he must be with him.

It's just that the hostess is missing in this room, which makes the room look deserted.

The mansion awarded by Emperor Qinglong is much better than here in terms of location and size, but Quan Moxian has no intention of moving there.He took Mrs. Lin to live in the outer courtyard, but the Quan family still felt too bleak with only a few masters around.

Fortunately, Quan Yiting was there, occupying his time to go home, leaving him no time to think about those sad past events.

After Haifeng withdrew, Mu Chuan sent a post, saying: "Young master, Gao Sigeng invites you to meet at Tingxiang Pavilion." Raised for a month.

Just now he was able to move around, so he sent someone to invite Quan Moxian.

If it weren't for him, Gao Wei would have died in prison long ago, how could he see the light of day again?He had no choice but to repay this life-saving grace.

After coming to the capital for several years, it was the first time for Quan Moxian to set foot in the Perfume Pavilion.At first glance, it is no different from other restaurants, except that the environment is more elegant and private.But judging from the behavior of his buddies, he is half a chip better than the big families in Beijing.

Work in the store will never be interrupted when you don't need it.When needed, they will be the first time.Guests are more comfortable here than at home.

"Lord Quan." Gao Weiyi arrived early, waiting at the gate of the reserved courtyard, and personally greeted Quan Moxian.

Quan Moxian took a few steps quickly, helped him up with both hands, and said, "Master Gao, don't do this. You are a senior in the examination room, how dare you entrust your late life in front of you." In terms of age, Gao Wei is a generation older than him.

Two months of prison life made Gao Wei a lot older.He patted Quan Moxian's hand and said: "In the face of the grace of salvation, don't mention any predecessors."

At that time, he had already prepared for the worst, just asking not to hurt his family.Even if Gong Wenjue came to see him, he never thought that one day he would see the light of day again and return to his post.

After the two sat down, Gao Wei took out a letter sealed with wax from his sleeve pocket, handed it to Quan Moxian and said, "This is for you, open it when you get home."

"Master Gao, this is?" Quan Moxian asked.

"Hey, it's nothing." Gao Wei said with a smile: "You are my savior, can I still harm you? You can take it with confidence, it is very clean."

This is his thanks to Quan Moxian.

As Si Geng of the household department, his family property is quite rich.I thought that all of this would come to naught, and my life would be a waste of struggle for decades.Thinking about it now, it's like a dream.

Only when you have lost it can you know how to cherish it.This family property, including his head, was picked up by Quan Moxian, so he naturally wanted to thank him with a big gift.

Hearing that Xiangxie's food is exquisite and delicious, the two chatted happily.

Gao Wei's career has been ups and downs for decades, and his life experience can teach Quan Moxian a lot.In this conversation, he also told Quan Moxian some official secrets unknown to outsiders, which gave him a more thorough understanding of the court situation.
