Chapter 712: Reason
Wang Sancai deliberately did not specify the "things that were going on in secret", because he was worried that Huang Tian didn't want Huang Lao to know, and he could see that the reason why Huang Tian cared about Huang Lao was largely because of his eldest son Huang Shikun.
What surprised Wang Sancai a little in his heart was that although Huang Lao was old, he was not sluggish, on the contrary, his down-and-out life made him shrewd and tactful, and he learned how to protect himself to the greatest extent while earning greater benefits, he knew quite well in his heart that the reason why Huang Tian was using him now was because of Huang Shikun, and as for other things, he, who had been out of the group for most of his life, should not be nosy.
"Patriarch, I'm going to the toilet, I'm sorry, people are old, and it's easy to go to the toilet as soon as they drink water." Huang Lao slowly stood up apologetically.
Huang Tian just responded lightly, but he ordered: "Erqi, Huang Lao is old, you help him to the toilet, be careful not to let him fall." ”
Huang Lao is a smart man and did not refuse Huang Tian's "kindness", but Wang Sancai also saw the matter clearly, he knew that Huang Tian deliberately sent Huang Erqi to "monitor" Huang Lao, so that when he didn't finish talking to him, Huang Lao would return early.
When the background of the two gradually moved away, Wang Sancai smiled and said: "It seems that the Prime Minister is really cautious." ”
Huang Tian didn't hide his thoughts, and said casually: "I haven't been in contact with him for a long time, and now I use him for my eldest son, and it is indispensable to guard against people, which is understandable, and Huang Lao himself knows it very well in his heart." ”
Wang Sancai looked around and said curiously: "The Prime Minister left Huang Lao here alone, aren't you afraid that he will do something?" ”
Huang Tian understood what Wang Sancai meant. He also said patiently: "There are only a limited number of people I can completely trust, this place is very close to the palace, it is completely within my perception, I don't need to waste an important manpower here." ”
Wang Sancai smiled a little embarrassedly: "Your Excellency Prime Minister doesn't need to explain so much to me, I just ask casually." ”
Huang Tian suddenly smiled and said, "Are you afraid of knowing too much?" ”
Wang Sancai shrugged innocently: "I will be sent to Li Guo by you in a few days, and it is impossible for you to tell me anything particularly confidential, let alone pull me into the water, what am I afraid of?" ”
"Hehehe." Huang Tian suddenly laughed deeply, didn't continue on this topic, and took the initiative to change the topic: "That's it." Don't call me by my title. If I call you by name, you can call me Patriarch Huang. ”
Wang Sancai deliberately made a palpitating look: "Can I understand that you are pulling a relationship with me?" ”
As he spoke, his tone became much more serious: "From the beginning, I thought that it must not be easy for Patriarch Huang to call me out. And not just told me to send me back. Am I right? ”
"For now, my purpose is simple. It's just a matter of sending the real you back. Huang Tian didn't go around the corner, and directly expressed his own opinion: "Let's talk about it a little bit, let's talk about why I brought you to see Shikun first." ”
Wang Sancai deeply understood. With the topic of "Huang Shikun", even if Huang Tian wanted to pull him into the water, Wang Sancai would not be able to get rid of it, and now when he heard that Huang Tian simply clarified the truth, he simply nodded and listened patiently.
"Didn't I say I was going to let you go back?" Huang Tian asked, and when he saw Wang San nodding, he said again: "First, it's because of Shikun." ”
"Oh?" Wang Sancai frowned, he really couldn't figure it out, and asked seriously: "Patriarch Huang, your eldest son died in shame because of me, this is a well-known thing in the whole world, I think, even if you don't seek justice for your eldest son, you must clear up the grievances of your Huang family, right?" You said he was going to let me go back because of him, and I really can't believe it......"
In the end, he himself felt a little ridiculous, and half-jokingly: "I don't read much, don't lie to me." ”
"These are things that you and I know very well, and we will talk about them later." Huang Tian's reaction was very indifferent, he suddenly put his hand into the mattress, and then took out a crumpled letter, opened it and put it in his hand: "This is the letter I received from Shikun to me, he said that when the family urgently used money to recruit soldiers during that time, it was you who helped us, you were our benefactor, but we later took revenge on you It was our fault, he was willing to die to apologize, I hope you can forgive him, and at the same time tell me, don't embarrass you." ”
Huang Tian's tone was very calm from beginning to end, but he kept looking at Wang Sancai complicatedly, but when it fell on Wang Sancai's ears, every word hit his heart like a heavy hammer.
After a long time, the corners of Wang Sancai's mouth twitched, he covered his forehead and bowed his head, and his tone became regretful and complicated: "You're right, he's really a stupid person." ”
Huang Tian heard this, but put away the letter in his hand, pursed his lips, and reminded: "It's this stupid person, the only time he woke up during this time, he still held my arm and told me emphatically not to embarrass you, saying that if you fall into my hands, let me let you go, otherwise he will always feel guilty in his heart." ”
Wang Sancai raised his head and looked at him quietly: "Then you agreed?" ”
Huang Tian nodded.
"I want to hear what you really mean in your heart." Seeing this, Wang San added another sentence.
Huang Tian took a deep breath: "It's the same as my eldest son...... The choice was put on you. ”
Wang Sancai suddenly felt a little unable to sit still, and said with a smile: "Patriarch Huang, I don't think you are an upright person for the sake of integrity!" ”
This repetition came from Wang Sancai's mouth, and he couldn't help but seem a little ironic.
However, Huang Tian didn't care, and sighed: "Actually, I thought about it later, from beginning to end, there was nothing to do with you Wang Sancai, you were completely involved, although the ending was dominated by you, but the fault is not yours, Shikun's self-killing is also his own choice, to blame, I can only blame him for being too immature." ”
When he said this, Wang Sancai was staring at him all the time, and he didn't even blink his eyes, from the beginning to the end, all Wang Sancai saw was full of sincerity.
"It's not surprising that others analyze me from an objective point of view, and I really admire that Patriarch Huang can look at this matter from an objective point of view." Wang Sancai also said that he was extremely loyal, and added a sentence at the end: "At least I understand that I can't do it." ”
"That's it!" Huang Tian suddenly closed his eyes and sighed heavily, his tone was a little sad: "That's all I have to say." I'll just forgive him. ”
Wang Sancai turned his head slightly to look at Huang Shikun, and smiled a little melancholy: "Some time ago, I also talked to others about your eldest son, and I said to that person, I like this guy who is a little stupid." ”
Huang Tian smiled with relief: "I believe he will be very happy to hear it." ”
Then, he stroked his son's forehead and stood up: "Let's go, time is too tight, I'll take you to another place and tell you another reason." ”
Wang Sancai got up silently, followed Huang Tian out of the inner room, and when he left, he couldn't help but look back at Huang Shikun who was lying alone on the bed, he didn't know if he was suddenly dazzled, and he actually saw that the corners of Huang Shikun's mouth actually hooked a slight arc.
……
Leaving Huang Lao alone to continue to take care of Huang Shikun, Huang Tian took Huang Erqi and Wang Sancai and left here, and then, the three of them got into the carriage again, and soon drove to another tile house in the direction pointed by Huang Tian.
This tiled house is smaller than the one Wang Sancai went to before, and it looks relatively dilapidated, and it is only about a quarter of an hour's drive from that tiled house, it seems that Huang Tian is very thoughtful, and ensures that important things are within the range of what he can perceive.
Following Huang Tian in, Wang Sancai didn't see any light coming from the tiled house, there were a few broken walls, and the yard was also full of dust, more like a long-abandoned tiled house.
Huang Tian stopped in the middle of the courtyard, and suddenly slapped his palm lightly three times, and within a moment, a faint candlelight lit up in the tiled house.
"Let's go inside." After Huang Tian said this, he took the two of them to the front of the room and gently pushed the door open.
As soon as he walked in, Wang Sancai smelled a faint smell of decay, as if he had not lived for a long time and exuded an old smell.
"Much better than the last time I came." Out of the corner of Huang Tian's eyes, he saw Wang Sancai's action of pinching his nose and explained: "The last time I came, there were two rotten chickens lying here. ”
Wang Sancai half-jokingly said: "I thought it was people who rotted." ”
"Hehehe." Huang Tian smiled very gently: "If someone dies, I don't dare to choose here." ”
The tiled house was not big, and while he was talking, the three of them walked to the back of the inner room, and before Wang San could see the inside of the inner room clearly, a figure suddenly flashed out of it and blocked the door, bowing his head to Huang Tian and said, "Patriarch, you are here." ”
It's Huang Tian's clan again...... Wang Sancai thought so, and suddenly found that this person was actually looking at himself, looking at his appearance, there was a bit of strangeness in his eyes.
Huang Tian saw his eyes and pointed at Wang Sancai casually: "Well, it's him, okay, let's go in." ”
This person immediately let go of the way, Huang Tian walked in first, Wang Sancai walked behind Huang Tian, when he passed by, he still found that the person guarding the door had been looking at him strangely, and he couldn't help frowning a little unpleasantly.
However, Wang Sancai still didn't say anything, and followed Huang Tianyi into the door only to find that a large circular hole had been dug in the ground of the inner room, with a diameter of about two meters.
This scattered, Wang Sancai found that this round hole seemed to be about two meters deep, and a execution pillar stood at the bottom, the key is that a person with a crooked head was tied to the execution pillar, Wang Sancai saw this person, and immediately understood why the previous guard looked at himself with such strange eyes.
He couldn't help but take the initiative to say to Huang Tian: "He's my stand-in?" (To be continued......)
