After Shen Qihuan recalled for a while, his eyebrows relaxed: "Of course I remember, it was after I went to Naruofu to assassinate?"
Changru nodded, sat down and said, "At that time, you just killed Na Ruo, I asked your mother why she didn't stop you, your mother's expression was very strange, very heavy and helpless, she wrote a name on the paper to me." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info" Chang Ru took the pen and wrote three words on the straw paper on the table: "Murong Zhang"
Shen Quehuan was puzzled: "I know this person, he is the only grandson of the old general Murong, and the Zhang army was named after him, but he died in the northwest battlefield in the end, and he didn't even leave an heir, and now their Murong family is only left with the Jinrong County Lord who is fostered in the palace." β
But she didn't understand what the connection between Murong Zhang and her going to Naruofu to assassinate her back then.
Changru said: "I didn't understand it at the time, but two years later, I heard rumors about Murong Zhang in the country of Yu, saying that the army easily occupied Shi Xicheng at that time, not because of the courage of the army, but because there was no one to lead the army in the city at that time. β
"There are no generals in the city?" Shen Qihuan couldn't believe it.
Chang Ru was indeed extremely affirmative: "Yes, when the army captured Shi Xicheng, all the generals, including Murong Zhang, were already dead. I couldn't figure it out at the time, but then I thought of the name your mother had written on paper. β
Shen Qihuan knew that her mother would never write an irrelevant name, she felt that she was facing many threads, maybe one of them would have the truth behind her, this feeling made her look very irritable: "You don't think my mother predicted Murong Zhang's death two years ago, right?"
The number of times Changru went to the military camp was only a handful, Shen Quehuan remembered that Changru's arrival, it was the disastrous defeat of Jiaozhou, she was ordered by her mother to go to the front line to pass on the new strategic deployment to Hu Yinggui, and when the army captured the eastern county Kuilin and returned to the camp victoriously, her uncle had just arrived in Quyan for two days.
It was also in this battle that she and her brother were exceptionally promoted to the rank of four-rank general.
"What did Mother say at the time?"
Changru: "Your mother told me that at that time she suspected that your father's death was related to the Zhang army, and she even suspected that there was a crucial chess piece in the Zhang army, and she controlled the situation of the Quartet with the hands of the Zhang army. β
At that time, the Zhang army had been divided into two branches, one was surnamed Qi, which was assigned to the emperor's brother Prince Jian and divided into a vassal army, and the other was the real Zhang army, with 60,000 standing troops recruited by the Murong family in the territory, and the military camp of the Murong family was very close to Shuzhou, and every time there was a war, the envoy of the feudal town would be responsible for recruiting new soldiers, so the hereditary soldiers recruited by the real Murong family were only 50,000 or 60,000 peopleγ
Changru said: "Before you went to Naruo Mansion to assassinate, your mother was sure that the important chess pieces in the east were by Murong Zhang's side, and later it was confirmed that Murong Zhang's mother was from the east and was also Naruo's own sister, she knew that her brother was killed by the Jiang family, so she asked Murong Zhang to secretly create the illusion that the Jiang family was trying to support the army and rebel. β
Shen Qihuan carefully recalled the time, and said in wonder: "But I don't remember what kind of suspicious recruitment the emperor had for the Yuchi Army after Naruo's death?" And if I'm not mistaken, then two months after his death, the Kingdom of Yu raised troops to raid, and Murong Zhang died in Shixi City in the raid." β
Changru made a gesture of "Shao'an, don't be impatient", "Your mother said that the reason why she suspected that there was an important person lurking around Murong Zhang in the eastern border was because of the emperor's unusual attitude towards Murong Zhang in those years. β
Changru flipped through a roster casually, and at the end, there were only a few pages recording the situation of the Murong family back then.
"At that time, your mother had two suspicions, first, it was not a day or two that the emperor's eldest daughter, Princess Qianning, liked Murong Zhang, but the emperor would rather let the princess fall ill than let her marry Murong Zhang, who had a reputation for talent, and second, among the extra lieutenants around Murong Zhang in those years, three of them were all palace guards. With these two points, your mother already suspects that the emperor was eyeing Murong Zhang at that time, maybe the emperor, like your mother, is also waiting for the ace of the eastern realm to dedicate himself. β
Shen Que was stunned, she remembered to kill the camp defense that was too lax before, and after returning to the camp, her mother was almost like a rabbit, and ordered someone to beat her with twenty military sticks, which was too sloppy for the crime of leaving her post and acting without authorization.
Her mother had always been strict with her subordinates, and she was stricter with those close to her than with outsiders.
It turned out that her "recklessness" at that time was actually "acquiesced" by her mother?
She remembers being beaten so hard that she couldn't get out of bed, and hearing her brother arguing fiercely with her mother...... The brother said in front of her bed: "I'm sorry, my brother is useless...... Her mother touched her face with tears, "Qian'er, how good it would be if your father was alive, then, you might have a younger brother, and then your mother wouldn't let you ......"
A tear rolled down from Shen Qihuan's eyes and dripped on the back of her hand. She didn't understand anything at the time......
The expression on Changru's face was complicated, and Shen Yulan was always flawless to Jiang Qian. He still remembered Shen Yulan's appearance at that time, she said that she watched her daughter's figure disappear into the night, she felt that her body and mind were hollowed out, she was such a woman who hated the difference between men and women, but when it came to her children, she still chose to let her daughter go into danger, just because Jiang Shen had become the only man in the Jiang family at that time, a man means inheritance, she gave her daughter the same life as a man, but she couldn't give her a man's fate.
Shen Yulan, who was silently crying in the night sky at that time, should have been extremely disappointed in herself, right?
"Don't blame your mother, no mother wants to make such a choice. β
"I just felt sorry, I just thought she didn't understand me at the time, and I said...... How good my dad is, have you forgotten it?......" Shen Quehuan lowered his eyes and bit his lip tightly.
Changru turned his face away and changed the topic stiffly: "Naruo's death will indeed make many people confused, and Murong Zhang's mother exposed her whereabouts at that time. β
Shen Qihuan sighed at the void, "My mother seems to have made the Yu Chi Army the target of everyone, but in fact, she used the Jiang family as a game, so that the emperor had the intention of killing the Murong family." β
If Murong Zhang was already dead when the army captured Shi Xicheng, then the person who had the strength to kill Murong Zhang and block his eyes with a city must be the current saint.
But Shen Quehuan still felt strange, if all of this made sense, then the root cause of the Murong family's extinction was actually Shen Quehuan, or rather, the death of the Murong family was planned by his mother.
Changru saw that she was trapped again, and nodded: "At that time, the Murong family and the Jiang family were evenly matched, if you say where the advantages of the Jiang family are, only in the heirs, although your three uncles were all killed on the battlefield, but your father is still the best son of the Jiang family......"
At the moment, Shen Que Huanmu felt that his lips were not his own, and he opened and closed slightly numbly: "It was Murong Zhang who leaked the military plane to the east, and it was Murong Zhang...... Killed my father?"
"At least it can't be disconnected. β
