Chapter 119: The Old Man on the Throne

The cooperation of Zhang Han and Wang Jian to do a good job in the national promotion of the salt and iron monopoly gave Daqin officials a lot of confidence.

However, some people don't understand, why should Wang Jian be involved in this matter?

However, those people in Xianyang Prison understood that it was all because of Ran Fang's words, so their attitude towards Ran Fang had changed a lot.

From the curiosity that arose because of Yingzheng's order, it has now turned into admiration from the bottom of my heart.

Therefore, in the past few days in Xianyang Prison, when they have free time, they always want to talk to Ran Fang, and even try to get some more experience and content from his mouth.

However, there is one person in this group who seems out of place, he does not take the initiative to talk to other people, and sometimes he takes the initiative to talk to him, and he also looks like he ignores it.

This person is a good man.

Being wronged this time didn't have much psychological impact on him, but when he heard Ran Fang's words, he couldn't help but think a lot more in his heart.

Therefore, only when they chatted with Ran Fang, he would take the initiative to express his opinion, and the others wanted to be close to him, so he basically kept his mouth shut, but his eyes were always firmly fixed in the direction of Ran Fang's cell.

On this day, when he was watching Ran Fang write, he saw Meng Yi and an old man walking in from outside, walking in the direction of Ran Fang with a cane.

The old man was full of silver hair and looked in good spirits, which couldn't help but make people look at it a few more times.

Standing at the door of the cell, the old man glanced at Ran Fang and Fusu in the cell, and then his eyes fell on Ran Fang and asked, "You are Ran Fang." ”

Not an interrogative sentence, but an affirmative sentence.

Ran Fang and Fusu turned their heads at the same time and looked at the old man at the door.

The look of confusion in the eyes of the two of them means that they don't know this person.

However, when Ran Fang saw his appearance of Zhu Yan and crane hair and old dragon clock, he couldn't help but think of a person in his mind - Zhang Liang's master - Huang Shigong.

Thinking about it, he stood up, took a few steps forward, and asked in an affirmative tone, "The old man?" ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Huang Shigong's eyes, he didn't expect this Ran Fang to be able to directly say his name.

I couldn't help but guess in my heart, could it be that this Ran Fang really had something to do with him as Zhang Liang said?

"It's the old man."

"I can't imagine that there are still people who know the old man, but it is the old man's honor."

Ran Fang admired this person a little, the person who was able to write "Taigong Art of War" and "Huangshi Gongluo" was definitely a peerless genius, and he also cultivated an apprentice like Zhang Liang, which was even more admirable.

He arched his hand towards Huang Shigong and said, "It is an honor for the younger generation to know the talent of Mr. ”

"Sir, please sit down, and I'll talk about what I have to say."

Fusu, who had already stood up with Ran Fang, rarely saw Ran Fang's attitude towards whom he was so respectful, and he couldn't help but be a little more curious about this old man in the circle.

You must know that even when his father and Li Si and others came, Ran Fang's attitude was very casual.

What is so special about this old man that can attract Ran Fang to be so polite?

Thinking about it, he took the initiative to ask, "Sir, is he?" ”

Ran Fang glanced at Fusu and did not answer his question, but turned his gaze to Huang Shigong and explained, "Old gentleman, don't blame. ”

Huang Shigong didn't care at all on his face, just waved his hand casually.

He knew that Meng Yi escorted him to Xianyang City just to get clues about Zhang Liang from his mouth.

But in this matter, he has a request, that is, he will not say it until he meets Ran Fang.

Because Zhang Liang told him about Ran Fang's affairs before, he always felt that Zhang Liang's affairs were an opportunity for Ran Fang, not only a chance to survive, but also an opportunity to become famous in the world.

As for the doubts of the rest, he didn't care about it at all.

"It doesn't matter."

"If someone can know the old man, he is already very satisfied."

As he spoke, he took the initiative to turn his head and explain his life experience for Fusu: "The old man is just a country man, Huangshi Gong. ”

The last time Ran Fang chatted with Zhang Liang, he invited Fusu out, so when he heard Huang Shigong's name this time, he didn't react much.

He just nodded slightly, and sat there, and he didn't think there was anything special about this person.

It was Ran Fang, who heard Huang Shigong introduce himself like this, and couldn't help but say: "The old man on the wall is too modest. ”

With just one sentence, he didn't follow up on the question.

"Why is the old gentleman here today?"

Hearing Ran Fang mention this, Huang Shigong's expression under his beard was visibly ugly to the naked eye.

He sighed, and his whole body was a little sluggish.

"This time I came to Xianyang, someone invited the old man to come."

"They said that my apprentice had caused trouble here, but now that they don't know where they are, they asked me to come and find him."

"Presumably Mr. also knows the background of my apprentice, if he is caught, it will be ......"

Listening to his words, Ran Fang couldn't help but feel a little more suspicious in his heart, why was Zhang Liang's life experience exposed?

And listening to the meaning of Huang Shigong's words, the court also knew that Huang Shi Gong was Zhang Liang's master, which was a bit too unbelievable.

It was surprising that Huang Shigong could also be invited over, which definitely already knew where he was hiding.

"Does the old gentleman mean that he wants me to intercede with him?"

"Nope."

Huang Shigong said this word categorically, and the beard on his face even shook a few times.

"After my apprentice came out of Xianyang, he went to find an old man and praised him."

"He has already told the old man what the gentleman said to him, and the old man admires him very much."

"Therefore, the old man is also persuading him that today's peace is bought with the blood of countless people, if it is for his own hatred, he will provoke a war in the world and abandon the people."

"And what is the difference between him and those he hates?"

Then he left, and the old man didn't know where he went.

Huang Shigong's words were not only for Ran Fang, but also for Meng Yi, who had just asked him to come to Xianyang Prison.

When he came in, Meng Yi quietly entered the next room and was listening to the conversation between him and Ran Fang.

Ran Fang didn't know about this matter, but Huang Shigong's last words were obviously not for himself, and he couldn't help but be a little more suspicious in his heart.

He gestured to Huang Shigong with his eyes, does the wall have ears?

Unexpectedly, Huang Shigong nodded, Ran Fang suddenly had a guess in his heart, and some things he couldn't figure out were also figured out.

"The old gentleman is righteous, and Ran Fang also admires it."

"Since the old gentleman has made up his mind in his heart, he didn't come here today just to talk to me about this, right?"

Huang Shigong smiled and nodded, looking at Ran Fang with a look of pity in his eyes.

"Sir, wise."

"My apprentice has always been stubborn, and he has decided that even ten cows can't be pulled back, and he is also benevolent, even if he is deceived, he will not defend himself."

Listening to his words, Ran Fang didn't agree with it in his heart.

However, I didn't interrupt him, and listened to his explanation.

"Therefore, my disciple was just being used, and he was not the mastermind of the assassination, but he was deceived by others, thinking that he could avenge his family, so he forgot to think about the truth of the matter."

"The mastermind behind the old man also knows that if Mr. is willing to let my apprentice go once, I can tell Mr. about the people behind the scenes."
