Huang Zhi fought bravely, had an upright personality, could live and die with his subordinates, and knew that coming back would not have a good result, but Zhao Zhi recruited him back, Huang Zhi still came back without hesitation, Li Xun felt that such a person should be regarded as a loyal minister, take 10,000 steps back, even if these are just superficial phenomena, they are all Huang Zhi's disguise, but the crime of going to war without authorization will not make Zhao Zhi treat Huang Zhi like this, why is this?

This doubt was answered by Fan Zhongyun.

It's all old things.

In Pingzong's later years, the princes fought for power, from more than a dozen princes, to the end, only Zhao Zhi and the then crown prince Zhao Yuan were left, and Huang Yuan's father was a hardcore supporter of Zhao Yuan.

Whether Huang Yuan wanted it or not, he had no choice, so he could only be classified into Zhao Yuan's party, and served in the East Palace for several years, which was appreciated and reused by Zhao Yuan, and was cited as a personal guard.

Huang Zhi is low-key, rarely spoken, and does not participate too much in the battle between Zhao Yuan and Zhao Zhi, but just does his own job, if it continues like this, as a low-level figure in the princelings, I am afraid that he will not be able to attract too much attention from Zhao Zhi.

But the two things that happened next made Zhao Zhi remember Huang Zhen deeply.

At a banquet, Zhao Yuan and Zhao Zhi were both present, and in the end, they were too drunk, drunk, and Zhao Yuan at that time, in a series of battles, had been abolished as the crown prince, and was replaced by Zhao Zhi, Zhao Zhi himself was naturally extremely proud, forced Zhao Yuan to pour wine for him, and asked an official present to write down the matter.

Those subordinates brought by Zhao Yuan were all afraid that after Zhao Zhi ascended the throne, they would liquidate them, they were afraid that it would be too late, where did they dare to say more, for a while, Zhao Yuan was sad and angry, at this time, Huang Zhi stood up and asked Zhao Zhi to return the gift, and also poured wine for Zhao Yuan, Zhao Zhi refused, Huang Zhi said righteously: It is common sense for brothers to love and respect each other, and now the brother toasts the younger brother, how can the younger brother not return the gift?

After speaking, he immediately pulled out his sword, walked to Zhao Zhi and knelt on one knee, and shouted: If the prince does not agree, the ministers should judge themselves and be righteous.

Huang Zhi's move shook everyone present, and Zhao Zhi was intimidated by his momentum, so he had to pour Zhao Yuan a glass of wine.

Pingzong's sixty-year-old birthday, changed the Yuan longevity, its intention is self-evident, but just three days after the change of the Yuan, Pingzong died violently, and then, Zhao Zhi succeeded to the throne as the emperor, and a month later, after dealing with Pingzong's funeral, immediately for the crime of rebellion, rebellion, executed Zhao Yuan, and beheaded his family.

Even the few young daughters left by Zhao Yuan at the end, Zhao Zhi didn't want to let go, and he was guilty of death, at this time, it was Huang Zhi who stood up and bluntly advised, and was seconded by many ministers, Zhao Zhi had just ascended the throne, and he didn't want his reputation to be tarnished, so he finally let go of Zhao Yuan's last trace of blood.

After Zhao Zhi succeeded to the throne, suppressed the family, the Huang family bore the brunt, many family members were dismissed, his father was transferred to Annan, and finally died of illness, Huang Zhi himself was not allowed to be reused, until the fourth year of Guangyuan, Yizhou Jiedu made Wu Juyuan lead the troops to make a rebellion, attack the city, kill innocents, the major festivals made listen to the Xuan did not listen to the tune, wait and see the situation, and the imperial court experienced the defeat of Hebei for a few years, the army was weakened, unable to suppress, the Yuanzhou defense envoy Zhen Jie at that time, asked to send troops to quell the chaos, and got Zhao Zhi's consent.

Zhen Jie led the troops to battle, but the army was defeated and surrounded, at that time, Huang Zhi, was a low-level officer under his command, at this time of danger, Huang Zhi, who escorted grain and grass in the rear, decisively gave up all the materials, led 300 soldiers from the headquarters, and made a detour to raid Wu Juyuan's military capital, which was successful, so that the enemy's army was disheartened, and the entire battle situation was reversed in one fell swoop.

Soon, Wu Juyuan was defeated and killed, and the rebellion was quelled.

After the war, many people, got a great promotion, only Huang Zhi alone, just was promoted to a level, made a general, and then called Jingping Pass, at that time Tubo, has some recovery, often sent troops to harass Longyou Prefecture, Huang Zhen guarded Jing Pingguan, only defend not attack, cautious, no merit and no fault, was looked down upon by many people, with the nickname of a mediocre general, but it is precisely like this, but it is appreciated by Li Zhong, recommended it to Liu Wei, since then, after several years on the battlefield, diligent, every battle is to serve the death, made a lot of contributions, his official position was slowly promoted, and finally achieved the position of a general, but after all... still can't get Zhao Zhi's attention and trust.

No wonder something happened to Huang Zhi, Zhao Zhi immediately grabbed it, it turned out that the two had a past grudge, Li Xun really hadn't heard anyone talk about these things, thinking that the matter involved Zhao Zhi, no one dared to talk nonsense.

Li Xun went to Wang Zhong's house and entrusted some connections.

Early the next morning, Li Xun went to the hotel to buy a sauce duck and a few catties of beef, as well as a jar of five catties of good wine, and then walked towards Dali Temple.

A middle-aged man was waiting outside the gate of Dali Temple, and when he saw Li Xun, he immediately greeted him, and said with a smile: "General Li, I have been waiting for a long time." ”

Li Xun smiled and nodded: "Lord Liu, thank you for your help." ”

The middle-aged man smiled: "Wang Zhong and I are classmates and friends, needless to say, the relationship is needless to say, what he asked, how can I refuse, I just hope that General Li will not stay too long, let me be difficult." ”

"I understand, I won't embarrass you."

"That's good, please come with me."

With this person leading the way, Li Xun smoothly entered Dali Temple and came to the cell.

The cell was very cold, the light was dark, and there was a smell of nausea, Li Xun wrinkled his head, and there was a little coldness on his body.

The middle-aged man whispered to Li Xun: "Go straight to the last cell, the one who is closed is Huang Xuan, today is the day of the court meeting, several adults have gone to the court, and they will not come back soon, General Li can stay for an hour, the time is up, I will call you." ”

"Thank you." Li Xun nodded, took out a hundred taels of silver ticket from his arms and stuffed it into his hand.

This person has a good relationship with Wang Zhong, so he is willing to help, Li Xun doesn't give money, it's nothing, of course, if he gives money, then it's the best, he can't help in vain, right?

After pretending to excuse himself, he took it by the way, and when he walked out of the cell, he glanced at the silver ticket in his hand, which was one hundred taels, and his face suddenly smiled.

Dozens of cells, most of them are empty, there are few prisoners, this is also normal, the vast majority of people or officials who have committed crimes, are generally interrogated by the criminal department first, and then handed over to the Dali Temple for review, like Huang Xu, without going through the criminal department, Yushitai, directly locked up in Dali Temple, this is rare.

Walking to the innermost cell, Li Xun stopped his steps, and saw that in the dim cell, there were some straws laid on the ground, and there was nothing to warm up in the quilt.

A thinly dressed prisoner, covered in blood, shrunk in a corner, shivering.

Li Xun's eyes suddenly turned a little red, a general who has experienced a hundred battles and is not afraid of life and death on the battlefield, how can it not be heart-wrenching now?
