Huang Wanglin is visibly getting older. He has no plans to reopen Linzhengtang. He has recently made two major decisions. One is to donate all the cultural relics he has collected over the years to the country for free, and the other is to resign as the elder of the tired gate.
Completely exit the tired door.
Huang Wanglin knew very well that this disaster was entirely caused by the inside of Kumen. His support for Xiahou Mulan offended the interests of some people, so he suffered this revenge.
The person who planned this operation also sent a warning to other members of the Weary Gate by attacking him.
Huang Wanglin was tired. He had lost his most beloved collection and almost lost his son. At his age, he could no longer withstand any storms, and he did not want any more mistakes.
Huang Wanglin asked Xu Chunliang to discuss something, and Xu Chunliang offered to go to his place.
Huang Wanglin asked Xu Chunliang to come to Huirentang.
Xu Chunliang has known the Huang family father and son for some time, but most of their meetings have been at Linzhengtang, and he has never been to Huirentang. Huirentang is also an ancestral property of the Huang family, and is much more famous in the traditional Chinese medicine community than Huichuntang.
Xu Chunliang followed the address given to him by Huang Wanglin and came to the back door of Huiren Hall. The back door was locked, and the small door next to it was open. In front of the door, there was an old man sitting on an old wicker chair and basking in the sun. He was Hui Rentang.
The gatekeeper of Ren Tang.
Xu Chunliang walked over to say hello and took the initiative to tell his name. The gatekeeper told him that Mr. Huang was waiting for him in the backyard.
Walking in from the small door is a small garden. This garden cannot be compared with the garden in Mohan Dongfang. Most of the trees have lost their leaves in this season, and the exposed trunks are not very beautiful. The fish pond in the center must not have been cleaned for a while. There are several
The koi carp squirmed lazily in the murky water.
Huang Wanglin stood by the fish pond in a daze, not even noticing that Xu Chunliang came to him.
Xu Chunliang coughed to attract his attention. Huang Wanglin smiled apologetically: "Chunliang is here."
Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "This is my first time coming to Huirentang."
Huang Wanglin said: "In front is the clinic and pharmacy. This backyard is a temporary resting place. I haven't been here for a long time."
Since he handed over Huirentang to his son, Huang Wanglin rarely comes over. He lets go when it's time to let go. On this point, he has thought clearly.
Xu Chunliang said: "This garden seems to have not been taken care of for a long time."
Huang Wanglin said: "Gongxian doesn't like these. I put the fish in the pond in the past, and many of them died."
He shook his head: "Let's go and sit inside."
Xu Chunliang followed him to the room on the west side. This was a suite, with a study outside and a small bedroom inside. Before Huang Wanglin retired, he often rested here. The current owner became Huang Gongxian, but Huang Gongxian was very
It is rarely used, so it basically maintains the past pattern.
Huang Wanglin brewed two cups of jasmine and handed one cup to Xu Chunliang. Huang Wanglin had always been very particular about drinking tea, but he seemed to be in no mood today.
Huang Wanglin said: "Chunliang, recent events are really troublesome for you."
Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "Third Master, you have told me many times."
Huang Wanglin said: "I don't say thank you for your kindness. It's because I'm old and I keep repeating my words."
Xu Chunliang said: "The third master will always be strong."
Huang Wanglin sighed and said: "No matter how strong a person is, he can't escape the old character. Chunliang, I came to you today to ask you, did Xie Dayantai ask you for something?"
Because Xie Boxiang met Xu Chunliang to discuss alone that day, Huang Wanglin didn't know what the two of them said, but based on his experience, he could guess that Xie Boxiang must have made conditions.
Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "Master Xie is a very kind and righteous person. He just chatted with me casually for a few words."
Huang Wanglin said: "Don't lie to me. Xie Dayantai has known me for so many years. I know him very well, and he is not willing to suffer losses."
Xu Chunliang said: "Why should I lie to the Third Master?"
Huang Wanglin said: "That day he invited you and me to go see his private collection. Do you plan to use those collections for cash?"
Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "The third master is worrying too much. Even if he wants to cash in, I don't have the strength to buy it."
"You don't, but Miss Xiahou does. Does he want to tell Miss Xiahou through you?"
Xu Chunliang secretly sighed that Huang Wanglin was an old Jianghu after all, so he couldn't hide such things from him.
Huang Wanglin said: "Chunliang, you and I have known each other for a while. Although we are very different in age, we have always been on good terms. You should have seen clearly what happened recently, but you just haven't pointed it out."
Xu Chunliang said: "I have always admired the Third Master as a person."
Huang Wanglin said: "I have known about your relationship with Miss Xiahou for a long time, and you should have known about Miss Xiahou's identity for a long time."
Xu Chunliang nodded, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Huang Wanglin said: "Actually, I have long wanted to withdraw completely. The recent events have made me determined. I plan to donate the museum to the country. I can't help much with Miss Xiahou's affairs."
Xu Chunliang said nothing. He could understand Huang Wanglin's decision, but if Huang Wanglin resigned from his position as elder at this time, it would not be good news for Xiahou Mulan.
Huang Wanglin said: "Although Xie Dazhan's collection is very precious, some of the items have unknown origins and there are hidden dangers in buying them. After much thought, I decided to take them and donate them all to the country for free. In this way,
Everyone got the desired result."
Xu Chunliang said: "Third Master, you are overthinking. Mulan has already agreed, and the price Master Xie wants is very reasonable."
Huang Wanglin said: "I'm worried that this matter will be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives."
Xu Chunliang said: "It's the same for anyone who donates. Mulan has no intention of keeping it for herself. Moreover, she feels quite guilty about your family's affairs and feels that it is her affairs that have harmed you."
Huang Wanglin shook his head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with her."
Xu Chunliang said: "If it has nothing to do with it, why is Third Master so eager to quit instead of waiting a few more months until Mulan passes the exam?"
Huang Wanglin was speechless. He knew that if he continued to side with Xiahou Mulan, he would most likely be retaliated against, so he wanted to stay away from right and wrong to stay safe.
Xu Chunliang said: "Is the third master willing to swallow this breath and let the real murderer go free?"
Huang Wanglin said: "The sky net is very sparse and does not leak anything. I am old and I am not able to catch the murderer myself. I don't want my family to be put at any risk."
Xu Chunliang nodded and said, "Did you know that Meng Huaiyi was involved in this matter?"
Huang Wanglin said: "Actually, there is really no need for Miss Xiahou to fight for this sect leader. The tired sect has long existed in name only."
Xu Chunliang said: "She doesn't want to fight for anything? She just doesn't want her family to fall into the hands of conspirators."
Huang Wanglin said: "Times have changed. Now it is a society ruled by law. Any social group must take the law as the criterion. The so-called sect rules and gang rules are now an abuse of lynching. Chunliang, please advise her not to be persistent."
Xu Chunliang said: "I know Mulan fairly well. In the past, she might have let it go. But it's different now. There are people who are causing trouble internally and hurting their brothers and sisters. If such people are not found out, they will only become more rampant and cause harm to the world."
, I understand the third master’s concerns. I regard the third master as my elder and my friend. Even if you plan to let it go, I can’t. I will definitely settle this account with those people!”
Huang Wanglin felt a surge of passion in his heart. Xu Chunliang's words aroused his long-lasting passion, but he quickly suppressed it.
He has passed the age of impulsiveness. Any impulse will eventually pay a price. This lesson has been painful enough.
Huang Wanglin shook his head: "Forget it, let's leave everything to the police and solve the problem through legal means."
Xu Chunliang said: "If you want to completely solve the future troubles, you must make the enemy feel afraid, and make them feel fear from the bottom of their hearts."
At this time, Huang Wanglin's cell phone rang. He picked up the phone and listened to what the other party said. His expression changed: "What? When did it happen?"
Xu Chunliang wondered to himself, could something bad happen again?
Huang Wanglin put down the phone and said to Xu Chunliang: "Meng Huaiyi is dead!"
Xu Chunliang was slightly startled. Meng Huaiyi fled the capital in a hurry. Xiahou Mulan threatened Meng Huaiyi with his family and went to Qiaocheng to meet, but Meng Huaiyi still escaped without saying a word. He thought that the old guy would find a safe place to hide, but suddenly
News of his death came.
"How did you die?"
Huang Wanglin said: "Myocardial infarction occurred last night. I was sent to the hospital but could not be rescued."
Xu Chunliang felt that this incident was not an accident. It should be the act of killing people behind the scenes. The clues were broken after removing Meng Huaiyi. This shows that the other party's methods were cold-blooded and decisive.
Huang Wanglin said: "He died in Qiaocheng."
Xu Chunliang was stunned. Didn't you mean that Meng Huaiyi didn't go to Qiaocheng, so why did he die in Qiaocheng? He suddenly had a bad feeling.
Huang Wanglin said: "I must go over immediately to find out the matter." Meng Huaiyi, one of the four elders of the tired sect, died of a heart attack. It was impossible for Huang Wanglin, who was also an elder, not to come forward, and the incident happened in Qiaocheng.
He happened to meet Xiahou Mulan and took this opportunity to resign as an elder.
After Xu Chunliang left Huirentang, he contacted Xiahou Mulan. Because he was worried about Xiahou Mulan's situation, he originally wanted to rush to Qiaocheng to have a look. Xiahou Mulan told him not to worry. At present, Meng Huaiyi's family requested an autopsy.
Geniuses have clues. Regardless of whether Meng Huaiyi committed suicide or not, it is still an internal matter within the family, and it would be difficult for Xu Chunliang to intervene even in the past.
On the contrary, Xie Boxiang must hurry up with the transaction and let Xu Chunliang transfer the house to Xie Boxiang as Xia Houzun. Only Xu Chunliang has the ability to deceive everyone and transfer the house to him reasonably and legally.
Xiahou Mulan will reveal the news of Xiahou Zun's appearance in the capital, in order to frighten the troublemakers within the family.
At the same time, Zeng Yuanqing also got the exact time and place of the ghost market auction. The time will be tomorrow night, and the location will be on the sea near Jinmen New Port. At that time, Pu Jian and Zeng Yuanqing will go there together.
Mo Han also contacted Xu Chunliang, and she promised to go to help, but she also had a condition, Xu Chunliang must go with her.
