I saw him yesterday?

Examples:
I would like to see the minister tomorrow.
I went to see him yesterday.

Both examples above could mean see and talk at the same time as far as how I could use the verb "see".

However, could I say "I saw him yesterday" when I want to mean the same, i.e. see and talk. I feel a bit odd as it could mean merely see with the eyes without talking. It seems that such construct more likely means seeing only.

Thanks!

Though I have been saying in that way without thinking I hesitate if I think before I speak.
