Chapter 393: Protecting provisions, decided by His Majesty, what do you want to do!

~4 min read 711 words

"Deal."

"We will ensure that the person sitting in that position is your man."

The man in black agreed to Feng Quji's request without hesitation.

Seeing this man in black agree to his conditions, Feng Quji came directly to the desk.

Then he found a piece of letter paper and began to write.

After finishing, he stamped it with his private seal.

When the envelope was sealed, Feng Quji stared directly at the man in black.

"What do you intend to do?"

Detaining provisions is a major crime; if the final result made him more satisfied, he would not feel so pained.

"You might as well guess, Master."

The man in black snatched the envelope from Feng Quji's hand, and then his figure walked out of the door.

That night, this letter was sent to Jiuzhou Commandery with the fastest speed.

The next morning, this letter had already appeared on the desk of the Administrator of Jiuzhou Commandery.

Qi Huaizhi saw the envelope on his desk and was slightly stunned.

After carefully inspecting the entire room, his gaze shifted back to this letter.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally opened the envelope.

The moment he opened the envelope, his gaze was attracted by the secret mark at the bottom.

Master Feng's.

Scanning three lines at a glance, he quickly swept through all the contents within the letter.

"How..."

Qi Huaizhi did not expect that the first time Feng Quji contacted him, it would be to make him do such a thing.

Detaining provisions is a major crime.

If this matter were discovered, I fear his head would not be secure.

But Feng Quji had after all been kind to him, and he had even sworn an oath to work for him.

A trace of struggle flashed in Qi Huaizhi's eyes.

Is it living...

Or choosing to repay the kindness?

His gaze glanced at the scar on his hand.

Qi Huaizhi's gaze could not move away.

One must know that in this era, to be an official, one cannot have any scars on their body.

Especially on skin exposed to the outside.

Except for military generals.

But he, Qi Huaizhi, was a civil official; if he had ugly scars on his body, he would never be recruited as an official.

If it were not for Feng Quji's help back then, he would never have been able to sit in the position of Administrator.

"Come here."

Qi Huaizhi put away the letter in his hand, then shouted toward outside the door.

"Master."

A subordinate immediately pushed the door and walked in.

"Escort Officer Wang is dead; since those provisions have stopped at Qi River, send heavy troops to guard them, and no one is allowed to approach those provisions."

Qi Huaizhi said with a gloomy face.

"Master?"

A trace of confusion flashed in the subordinate's eyes.

Previously, the Master did not seem to want to interfere in the matter of those provisions.

Why choose to guard those provisions with heavy troops now?

"Provisions are a major matter; this official will personally report this matter to His Majesty, and let His Majesty decide the fate of these provisions."

This was the only way Qi Huaizhi could think of to delay these provisions.

And this method would not expose himself to greater danger.

The subordinate immediately understood his superior's intention.

"Yes, Master, rest assured, I will absolutely not let anyone approach those provisions."

………

Near Qi River.

Those escorting the provisions were all government soldiers.

Wang Qiming's corpse lay in the center.

The knife marks on his body exposed the ferocity of the mountain bandits back then.

"Boss, what do you say we should do? Are these provisions just going to stay here and not move?"

Because of the death of their leading superior, this group of people had completely fallen into a state of having no leader.

This resulted in them not knowing what to do next.

"Reorganize the men and horses, we must transport these provisions to Old General Wang as quickly as possible."

The middle-aged man called Boss said with a gloomy face.

He had a very bad premonition.

Wang Qiming's death did not seem to be an accident.

He sensed an aura of conspiracy within this. ===== CHAPTER 395 =====
