Regarding whether the king of Nanliang was deliberately defeated at Tianmen Pass, in fact, Zhao Hongrun had already made a guess. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Therefore, when his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan put forward this hypothesis, Zhao Hongrun shook his head with a smile, ready to stop his younger brother's groundless speculation.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hongxuan said something mysteriously, choking Zhao Hongrun was about to blurt out.

"Brother, did you say that King Nanliang did it on purpose? I've heard something about the king of Nanliang......"

"What's the matter?" Zhao Hongrun asked suspiciously.

I saw Zhao Hongxuan swallow his saliva and whispered: "I heard that when the king of Nanliang was exiled by his father, his wife gave birth to a son and a daughter for him, but he was afraid of being suspected by his father, so in order to protect himself, he drowned the newborn baby boy with his own hands, and only dared to raise the baby girl who was born later......"

『……』

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Zhao Hongxuan and did not speak.

In fact, he had heard this gossip before, and he could explain why Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, would do this: as his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan said, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, was afraid that Wei Tianzi would kill him, so he cut off his heirs to show his heart.

You must know that a member of the royal family who has no heirs is no threat to the currently reigning Wei Tianzi.

After all, a person's death is like a lamp extinguished, once a person dies, everything he has in the world can only be passed on to his heirs, but Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, has no heirs, which means that once Zhao Hongrun, the third uncle, passes away, all his family business, achievements, and achievements will disappear, and will not pose any threat to the new monarch appointed by Wei Tianzi in the future, and there will be no tilt of imperial power.

Besides, Zhao Hongrun's sixth uncle, Yiwang Zhao Yuanyan's connections in China are unparalleled in the country, and no one's connections can surpass this sixth uncle, but Wei Tianzi ignores this and still trusts Zhao Yuanyan very much, why is this?

Because Zhao Yuanli not only had no heirs, he was not even married, and there was no wife family at all.

He is the only one in his family.

In this case, Wei Tianzi has no restraint on the brother of King Yi, Zhao Yuanyan, because he knows that if Zhao Yuanli dies in the future, his inheritance will be left to Zhao Hongrun, a nephew he regards as a godson, and Zhao Hongrun is Wei Tianzi's own son.

Therefore, how could Wei Tianzi restrict Zhao Yuanli? The latter was no threat to him at all.

In contrast, Zongfu Zongzheng Zhao Yuanyan has an heir, right? And he was also set aside by Wei Tianzi, right?

Is it just because Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, was recommended by Zhao Yuanyan, the Zongzheng of the Zongfu, and the former placed Wei Tianzi in the Zichen Palace?

Honestly, what kind of arrangement is that? Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, supported the fifth son of the emperor, Qing Wang Hongxin, to become the prince, but Qing Wang Hongxin is still the son of Wei Tianzi after all, is it necessary to immediately set aside Zhao Yuanyan?

It can only be said that because in Wei Tianzi's subconscious, Zhao Yuanyan has always been a certain threat, so when Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, did something like that in Zichen Palace, Wei Tianzi's suspicion of Zhao Yuanyan was suddenly magnified.

Otherwise, Wei Tianzi was able to tolerate the Donggong Party and the Yongwang Party fighting in full swing, why couldn't he tolerate one more Qingwang Party?

What's more, after that incident, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, was fine, but Zhao Yuanyan, the Zongfu Zongzheng, was stripped of his rights?

The reason is very simple, because in Wei Tianzi's thoughts, if you don't have an heir, you won't be able to make any tricks, no matter how happy you dance now, but you will eventually die of old age, and once you die, everything you have will disappear and cease to exist, so it's not worth me risking notoriety against you.

You Southern Liang King Zhao Yuanzuo want military power, okay, give it to you, you take the soldiers to fight with South Korea. If you win, your exploits are also the merits of my reign, and in the final analysis, you are still working for me.

If you have any bad intentions, well, my eighth son has twice as many troops in his hands, and he will more than enough to deal with you.

When you are old and useless, I will throw you into an idle position, and raise you, and I don't have to worry about your merits overshadowing your heirs, how good?

Therefore, in Wei Tianzi's heart, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, actually had no threat.

But at this moment, Zhao Hongxuan put forward a hypothesis.

"Brother, I want to say, because of the relationship between my father and the emperor, King Nanliang died a son, is it possible that he has a grudge and deliberately wants to frame you, so that my father can also taste the pain of losing his son, this makes perfect sense."

Zhao Hongrun shook his head with a smile, and then reached out and flicked it on his brother's head.

"Where do you hear nonsense?" Glancing at Zhao Hongxuan, Zhao Hongrun said angrily: "This is a coincidence, no matter how powerful the King of Nanliang is, it is impossible to calculate the date of my entry into the army." …… I would have doubted him if he had been defeated after I had marched into Shangdang County, but the date of his defeat was the sixth day of October, which happened to be the same as the day I captured the Leather Prison, and he was not a ghost, so how could it be so accurate? ”

This sentence made Zhao Hongxuan speechless.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun asked curiously: "Xiao Xuan, you don't seem to trust the king of Nanliang?" …… In fact, according to the seniority, you and I have to call him a third uncle. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Hongxuan shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't distrust, it's just that I'm a little worried...... It is said that when his father succeeded to the throne, the king of Nanliang was opposed, and later plotted to rebel, and was exiled after the defeat, and this exile lasted for a full seventeen years...... I don't believe he has any resentment. After a pause, he frowned and said: "Especially when he drowned his son with his own hands, the tiger poison still does not eat children, you can imagine how vicious the heart of the king of Nanliang is." …… I always feel that when King Nanliang returns to Daliang this time, there must be some bad intentions. ”

Zhao Hongrun knew that his younger brother was as stubborn as himself, so he shook his head with a smile.

While chatting about this topic, the two returned to the Weiqiu military camp with their poor prey.

After returning to the camp commander's tent, Zhao Hongxuan still felt that Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, was not credible, and reminded his brother to be careful in the future.

At this time, Zhao Hongxuan's staff Zhou Yu was also in the tent, and when he heard this, he asked with a smile: "Who do the two highnesses want to watch out for?" ”

Zhao Hongxuan trusted Zhou Yu very much, and revealed the truth without saying a word, which made Zhou Yu slightly stunned.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun pointed at Zhou Yu and said helplessly: "With such a stubborn younger brother, I am out of line, Mr. Zhou, no, General Zhou, come on." ”

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu pondered for a moment after hearing this, frowned and said: "Actually, I think that His Royal Highness King Huan is right, Your Royal Highness King Su should be careful." ”

After that, he saw Zhao Hongrun's stunned expression, so he explained: "For this coincidence, I believe that this is a coincidence, even if the King of Nanliang is powerful, he can't deduce when His Royal Highness King Su will conquer Pi Jiao Pass." Therefore, it is a definite coincidence that His Royal Highness King Su led his army deep into the territory of Shangdang but was besieged. …… But after that? In order to besiege His Royal Highness King Su, Han General Storm Kite personally went out and took 30,000 light horsemen to Hyun City. There are 30,000 cavalry missing in Tianmen Pass, and even the main general Storm Kite is gone, and the king of Nanliang actually turns a blind eye? He's not blind? …… In my opinion, the king of Nanliang was an excellent commander, so when he attacked Tianmen Pass, he was bound to send his subordinates deep into Taihang Mountain to monitor every move of Tianmen Pass. How to explain these spies, none of them noticed that the tyrannical kite led 30,000 cavalry to leave? That's 30,000 cavalry, not 300! ”

"......" Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly.

After Zhou Yu said this, he was slightly stunned in his heart, and he was really a little suspicious.

After all, as Zhou Yu said, the guard of Tianmen Pass, Storm Kite, left Tianmen Pass on October 20 and took away 30,000 cavalry, but the Northern Second Army outside Tianmen didn't know about it?

This is unlikely.

For example, if he Zhao Hongrun attacks Tianmen Pass, although the main battlefield is in Tianmen Pass, Zhao Hongrun is bound to send troops to Taihang Mountain, send green crows and other scouts, and monitor Tianmen Pass and the Gaodu Basin behind Tianmen Pass.

After all, it was 30,000 cavalry, not 300 cavalry, and how powerful it was to act, how could it be that the Northern Second Army couldn't even detect the slightest rumor?

What's more, at that time, Storm Kite was shocked that his Su Wangjun might have built camps in Fayu Mountain and Yangtou Mountain, and rushed to support with 30,000 cavalry, so it was not like he would deliberately hide his actions, and it was very likely that he didn't think about anything in detail, and left directly with 30,000 cavalry.

The movement of 30,000 cavalry galloping together, the kind of movement like an earthquake, as long as there is the eyeliner and meticulous work of the Northern Second Army on Taihang Mountain, it is impossible to hide these ears and eyes.

And in this case, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, still stood still and did not take action at Tianmen Pass, which is indeed a bit of a problem.

He tried to make a feint on Tianmen Pass, to see if the Storm Kite was in the pass, if the Storm Kite was really not there, wouldn't he be able to take advantage of the situation to storm the Tianmen Pass?

However, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, seems to have done nothing.

This is indeed not the judgment of a warlike commander.

『……』

Zhao Hongrun pondered for a moment, and then temporarily suppressed this doubt in his heart.

After all, this is just a guess, even if Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, really has the intention of taking the opportunity to frame him, he has no conclusive evidence, and unwarranted suspicion of the commander of the army all the way will only cause unnecessary trouble.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun shook his head and said: "Okay, this topic ends here, the king of Nanliang is me and Xiaoxuan after all, and now the status in the country is not low, so you can't maliciously speculate." ”

Zhou Yu is an interesting person, and when he saw Zhao Hongrun say this, he didn't say anything more.

After all, in his opinion, the intelligence of His Royal Highness King Su in front of him will not be inferior to him, as long as he has a guard in his heart, if Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, really has the intention of taking the opportunity to frame him, I believe that His Royal Highness King Su will also be on guard in the future.

At the end of the twentieth year of Hongde, both the Wei army and the Korean army died down on the battlefield of Shangdang and no longer used soldiers.

At the beginning of the spring of the following year, it was not surprising that Korea sent reinforcements to Shangdang County, and according to the news that Zhao Hongrun had learned, there were traces of unknown troops on the north side of Changzi City and northeast of Hyun City.

There are all kinds of signs that South Korea is not willing to give up Shangdang County and is ready to retake it.
