Chapter Seventy-Three: The Headless Case (II)
It is enough to capture a city with empty defenses in one day's work, and the siege equipment only needs to build more ladders, and the pioneer battalion that set off last night should be already building at this moment. Thinking that tomorrow would be able to see Zhao Min reduced to a prisoner, He Ran felt a hint of revenge in his heart.
Huang Wan avoided Su Man's arrival, He Ran didn't call her again, summoned Xungu, and asked, "Do you know anything about Ruiyinghou Huang Qian?" ”
Xun Gu replied: "Rui Yinghou is introverted, few people know his deeds, I was still an ordinary soldier when he died, and it has been more than ten years, although I heard some rumors about him in private, but they are all unknown, hehe, because talking about the cause of his death has become a taboo in the army." ”
"Oh? Let's hear it. He Ran led his horse to a clearing on the side of the road and waved for the army to move on.
Xun Gu said: "He was originally a general in the Ning family's army, and his repeated military exploits were appreciated by Marshal Ning, and he was promoted to deputy marshal, and it was rumored that if the Ning family army had ten merits, five or six points would be attributed to Deputy Marshal Huang, he was not only wise and brave, but also sympathetic to the soldiers, modest and courteous, so the soldiers loved him very much. But this also caused Ning Jiaerlang to be dissatisfied.
As the prestige of the Ning family army became more and more prosperous, King Zhao was worried that his family would be alone and would have a high degree of merit, and thought of dividing his military power, Huang Jian became the best choice, so he was named General Zuo and Rui Yinghou, and focused on supporting it. He wants to join forces with the Ning family army to make trouble, and the imperial court will not even have room to fight back, so he intends to get rid of it. He Ran couldn't help laughing, laughing because King Zhao didn't know people's abilities, and it was self-defeating in the end.
Xun Gu continued: "In a crusade battle, Huang Qian's department and the Ning family army sent troops in the east and west, Huang Jian was fighting against the enemy here, and the Ning family army sent people to ask for help, saying that the plan was trapped, Huang Jian was anxious and immediately led a group of men and horses to rescue, but on the way he was ambushed by the enemy army and died on the battlefield. ”
He Ran frowned slightly, and said, "Is the Ning family army really a trick?" ”
Xun Gu said: "No, the Ning Jiajun said that they didn't send anyone to ask for help at all." ”
He Ran smiled and said: "This can deceive the layman, but it can't deceive us who lead the troops, if the person who sent the letter is not holding the letter and is a familiar face before, will you easily believe it?" ”
Xun Gu said: "Yes, Huang Jian is wise and brave, since he sent troops in a hurry, this messenger must be trustworthy to him, and then someone wanted to find the messenger, but he couldn't find it, some people said that this person was Marshal Ning's cronies, some people said that he was a subordinate of the prison army, most of the generals who had seen this person Although Huang Jian died in battle, whose person came to report the letter was not clear, and how to check." ”
"That's it?"
"What else, Huang Qian's family and subordinates made a fuss for a while, but after all, there was no result, one of the two generals who took the lead was later found guilty of treason and beheaded, and the other died at home inexplicably not long after, and no one dared to make trouble anymore, and Huang Qian's case became a headless public case."
"You guess that King Zhao designed to kill him?"
Xungu shook his head and said: "I'm all hearsay, just now said that King Zhao intended to get rid of it is just one of the statements, and some people say that the Ning family wants to get rid of it, everyone doesn't dare to talk about this matter, I have heard extremely limited, it is difficult to guarantee that it is not a deduction, some people say that Huang Qian's subordinates are dissatisfied with King Zhao not coming out to preside over justice, so they make up a story to vent their anger, and some people say that there is actually no thing for the Ning family army to ask for help, it is Huang Jian who wants to lead the troops to attack the enemy, and the strategy is seen through by the enemy, so that he died in ambush. ”
"This is really a headless case, Huang Jian later married into the Ning family, I think it shouldn't be Huang Jian who was harmed by the Ning family."
Xun Gu said: "This marriage has also caused a lot of discussions, Erlang was born with a glance, and his ugliness is incomparably different from his brother, nearly thirty years old has not married a daughter-in-law, Huang Wan's beauty is seen, the two are too incompatible, and there is a suspicion of killing the father, so everyone speculates a lot, some people say that it is King Zhao in order to calm everyone's speculation about Huang Qian's case, personally for the matchmaker of this marriage, some people say that Huang Jian and the Ning family set this marriage before his death, Huang and Ning are silent, the marriage is extremely simple, after the expiration of Huang Qian's funeral, quietly got married, few people knew at the time, after Erlang's death, the court issued a decree, and everyone knew about the marriage. ”
He Ran nodded and said, "Let's go, don't mention these things to anyone in the future, and the news of the province will cause sadness in her ears." ”
"Yes." Xun Gu said that he rode his horse and galloped into the army with the military division.
