A happy family.
Han You poured wine for Han Bairen, the smile on his lips never faded.
Once upon a time, in the dead of night, Han You recalled why he had committed suicide time and time again.
He had the answer all along, knew it better than anyone else.
The answer is that at this moment, the family is enjoying themselves, caring and protecting.
Gold and silver are not important.
Enormous rights are not important either.
Everything you see in front of you, the laughter, the health of your loved ones, and being carefree under your own protection, that's what matters.
If someone wants to take away everything in front of Han You, then he will definitely make the other person die without a burial place.
Fortunately, there are fewer and fewer people like him in Jingzhong, but that doesn't mean there aren't any. Zhao Zhongzheng is one of them.
At this time, the Huang Mansion had a special guest, the weapons supervisor Zhao Zhongzheng. Why is he special because he represents the Zhao family.
In the main hall of the Huang Mansion, Zhao Zhongzheng is neither arrogant nor humble.
"Sir Huang was once a heroic general in Nanguan. He made outstanding achievements as the left minister of the Ministry of War. Not only the subordinates admired him, but even my elders in the Zhao family were full of praise for Mr. Huang. With his appearance, Mr. Huang will definitely be able to take charge of the Ministry of War one day. These words were not said by the lower official, but by my elder, the Zhao family."
Huang Youwei had a calm smile on his face.
What Zhao Zhongzheng meant was that Huang Youwei could be a minister and would become a minister one day in the future.
If Zhao Zhongzheng, an ordnance supervisor, said this, he would definitely not be able to do it, but if he said it on behalf of the Zhao family, he was qualified.
Elder Huang was not surprised by Zhao Zhongzheng's rash visit. He went to the Four Seasons Villa for a banquet on Han Bairen's birthday. This incident was not a secret. Many people also knew about his relationship with the Han family and his son.
Zhao Zhongzheng said sternly: "Actually, my elders in the Zhao family also respect Master Huang as a brave general, but I have never had the chance to visit Master Huang."
This is true. I didn't respect him before, but now I respect him because the Zhao family wants to develop connections in the military.
Zhao Zhongzheng opened a long box next to the table: "I hope Master Huang will accept it."
Huang Youwei looked at it intently and praised: "What a sword."
"A good sword is given to a hero. This sword was made by a master craftsman from the South. It is a magical weapon that cuts iron like clay."
"No reward for no merit." Huang Youwei did not stand up, but asked knowingly: "I don't know whether Zhao is the official, no, I don't know the Zhao family. Is there anything I need to do for you?"
"Han Bairen!"
As soon as these three words came out, Huang Youwei subconsciously wanted to stand up and salute, but his buttocks even left the stool, and he quickly sat back down.
Zhao Zhongzheng said in a deep voice: "I dare not hide it in front of Mr. Huang. We, the Zhao family, want to touch the father and son of the Han family. Han You is the emperor's personal soldier. We, the ministers, must always take His Majesty's face into consideration, but our Zhao family also I am not a person who swallows my anger, so..."
Huang Youwei sneered in his heart: "So the Zhao family wants to touch Mr. Han?"
Zhao Zhongzheng hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile: "It is said that it is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. In fact, as early as a month ago, my elders, the Zhao family, had inquired about Han Bairen's direct lineage in the Southland, but...just..."
"Just nothing."
"It's just extremely weird. Many generals in the South are silent about Han Bairen. The subordinates are extremely puzzled. They know that Mr. Huang once served in Beibian Pass and are familiar with Han Bairen, so they also asked Mr. Huang for advice."
Huang Youwei's eyes were full of smiles.
No wonder the Zhao family was so eager to develop connections in the military. As he had guessed, the Zhao family, which had a high self-esteem, had never really lowered its profile to win over the southern generals.
Nandi knows that Han Bairen's background is all senior generals, and almost all of these senior generals have received favors from Han Bairen. Even if they have not, they will not offend those colleagues or colleagues who have received favors from Han Bairen because of the Zhao family.
As Han Bairen said, in the circle, a person who betrays the circle is not allowed to be in the circle, so it must be extremely difficult to stay in the circle.
Rather than saying that Han Bairen was benevolent to many generals, it is better to say that Lao Han was benevolent to the military generals of the previous and current dynasties.
It was precisely because they couldn't find out Han Bairen's details that the Zhao family hesitated. This was very strange to them. It was nothing more than asking a person, and it seemed like some serious secret.
Han You was the one Zhao Zhongzheng had provoked in the past few days. The Southern Zhao family inquired about Han Bairen’s details a month ago, when Han You became famous in the capital. One can imagine the implications. The Zhao family must have wanted to I want to win over the popular person in front of His Majesty, that is, Han You.
This is how the aristocratic family does things. They need to know the basics. There was no gap between them and Han You before. The Zhao family in the Southland needs to inquire about Han Bairen's situation to see if they can try to win over. Now they are enemies with Han You, and they need to understand the Han family father and son.
"Master Huang..."
Zhao Zhongzheng looked at Han Bairen and said bluntly: "The official knows that you are a general. Unlike other civil servants, you are quick to speak. If it is inconvenient to tell, the official will not make things difficult for Mr. Huang, but if Mr. Huang is willing to give the Zhao family a few It’s best to share a thin side, and Mr. Huang also knows that our Zhao family will never treat our friends badly.”
"Well, easy to talk about."
Huang Youwei nodded: "This matter of yours, um, I don't want to say it frankly, or I can tell you. This matter of yours, um, I don't want to say it. It's not that I can't say it, but I can say it."
Zhao Zhongzheng pricked up his ears: "Thank you, Mr. Huang."
Huang Youwei continued: "But, ah, I didn't say it or not. You have to know that I won't say it, but I can't say it, no matter what it is, eh, um... I will definitely, Let’s just say, it’s not like we don’t talk about this kind of thing, you and I are officials in the same palace, I guess you understand what I mean.”
"I understand, I understand." Huang Youwei nodded heavily: "Master Huang, please speak."
Huang Youwei took a sip of tea and said, "It all depends on people. Yes, we can think of ways, right? I didn't say I won't tell you, but I did. Actually, it's not that I can't tell you..."
Putting down the tea cup, Huang Youwei smiled and nodded: "That's right, if you do, tomorrow night will be a little later, tomorrow night will be a little later, I just want to talk about it, don't be in a hurry, right? In this way, tomorrow night Some, later, when you and I get there... Then, right, I will say this or not, you will take a look then, I will be later, later, when I get there, take a look, right? "
Zhao Zhongzheng stared, a little confused: "What do you mean, Mr. Huang?"
Da Lao Huang was unhappy: "Oh, I made it so clear. Doesn't Zhao Jianzheng still understand?"
"Your Majesty...do you understand?"
The elder Huang frowned: "Are you really the Zhao family? How come the Zhao family can't even understand what they are saying? I have spoken so straightforwardly."
"That is..." Zhao Zhongzheng asked tentatively: "Tomorrow, later, Mr. Zhao said?"
"Look, you still don't understand." Da Lao Huang said angrily: "I have already said that I will not say anything about the matter you asked about. Of course, I did not say that I must say it, right? The Zhao family How can I refuse to give you the face? You should understand when I tell you this way, but I can’t tell you directly. It’s not that I don’t say it, but that this statement... is Well, Inspector Zhao should understand this."
Zhao Zhongzheng's head was buzzing. He thought for a while and nodded stupidly: "Understood... right?"
"That's good, that's good."
Da Lao Huang stood up and said with a smile: "Okay, then I accept this sword with a smile. Come and give it to Zhao Jianzheng."
The housekeeper walked in, bent down to salute, and Zhao Zhongzheng, whose head was still buzzing, walked away in a daze.
Big Old Huang, who was standing in the main hall, didn't even glance at the sword box, and sneered again and again, "Zhao Zhongzheng is in a hurry to die, so I will help you!"
As for Zhao Zhongzheng, when he walked out of the Huang Mansion and entered the official sedan, he felt a little better.
He came to the Huang Mansion for two things. First, to find out the details of Han Bairen. Second, when he was messing with Han You, Huang Youwei needed to be silent.
He didn't ask about the first thing at all, and then he walked out stupidly, thinking that he probably, maybe, should, probably didn't ask.
The second thing, he simply...forgot to mention.
Then, he didn't say anything that he couldn't get done, and even put in a sword.
After thinking about it again, Zhao Zhongzheng began to doubt himself. Could it be that I didn't understand enough and didn't hear it... The implication of Master Huang's words, judging from Master Huang's meaning, it seems that he did not reject himself.
The more he thought about it, the more Zhao Zhongzheng admired him.
No wonder he could transform from a military general to a civil servant. What Mr. Huang said was indeed mysterious. He patiently said so much, but for some reason... I couldn't understand it?
