Chapter 172 Crazy Uncle x Heroic General 02

Chili country.

On a small road near a forest somewhere in the southern border, a convoy heading south all died on the road. From the rich young men in the carriage to the guards on the outer layer, all of them turned into cold corpses on the ground without exception.

Lu Yan woke up on the ground covered in blood, but he fainted again as soon as he opened his eyes.

The purple-clothed young man's legs were hit violently and his wrists were broken.

The back was facing up, with a huge knife scar running across it from the left shoulder to the waist.

The knife wound was so deep that the bone was visible, and it was obviously caused by a lot of force.

There was also a big knife stuck in the young man's back, directly piercing his heart.

This was because he was afraid that the young man would not die, so he gave him another stab before leaving just in case.

The assassins disguised as bandits had already left and soon disappeared into the mountains and forests.

They returned to Beijing with the results of completing their mission, but they had no idea that their target had died and come back to life, and was still sharpening his knife to attack them.

While Lu Yan was unconscious, he accepted all the memories and world stories of the original owner.

The original owner was named Yu Rong, and he had been an adult for two years. He could be said to be a handsome and elegant young man in his prime, and even a prominent figure in the city of Yanjing.

He was born into the Lin'an Yu clan. His father and brother died in the battle to resist the invasion of the Lanzhao Kingdom in the south. He was the only male descendant of the Yu clan.

When Yu Rong was eight years old, he returned to Yanjing City from the southern border after his father and brother died in battle. He was brought up by his sister who became the queen in the palace, and was treated like a half-prince of the Chili Kingdom.

After all, although he is young, he is of a high generation.

As the only remaining relative of the current empress, he is the brother-in-law of the current emperor and the uncle of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He is a well-deserved uncle of the emperor!

Yu Rong is a true royal relative.

But because of his father and brother's outstanding military achievements, he was also awarded the title of Duke of Anguo.

The fiefdom of 3,000 households can be inherited from generation to generation.

The current Emperor Zhang De of Chili Kingdom treats his only remaining brother-in-law very well.

Yu Rong's father and brother were both staunch royalists, and his sister was Emperor Zhangde's first wife.

Emperor Zhangde would not treat his brother-in-law Yu Rong harshly, whether for the sake of the good generals who died in battle or for the sake of the empress and the crown prince.

Therefore, Yu Rong was raised in the palace and grew up with the crown prince and the princes.

It was not until four years ago that the 18-year-old Duke of Anguo Yu Rong retrieved the evidence he had been secretly searching for for ten years and indicted the Left Prime Minister Shen Ju, who had withheld food and military equipment from the southern border troops, resulting in the death of General Yu's entire family on the battlefield.

Although Yu Rong returned to Yanjing and stayed obediently in the imperial city as a wealthy uncle of the emperor, he did not forget the tragic death of his father and brother.

His father and three brothers should not have all died in the battlefield against the Lanzhao army, just because someone in Chili secretly withheld military pay.

Not only was there a shortage of food and fodder, but the weapons were also inferior goods. These withheld food and fodder were then sold to the enemy by greedy politicians.

As a result, the fighting power of the Chili Kingdom was not fully exerted, and the Lanzhao Kingdom, with its full stomach, took the weapons belonging to the Chili soldiers and started a killing spree.

If it weren't for General Yu and his three sons, and the countless soldiers who fought hard, the southern border would have been breached long ago. How could the Chili Kingdom still be stable!

The reason why some corrupt officials in the court did this was only because of their own selfish desires. It was just right that General Yu died, as it would give them one less political enemy.

After all, these self-righteous civil servants have always looked down on the reckless military officers fighting on the battlefield and are ashamed to serve in the same court with these uncouth men.

The group of civil servants headed by Zuo Xiang only cares about their own interests and does not care about the southern border troops and General Yu’s family at all.

Anyway, a general named Yu is dead, and the Chili Kingdom can always find a second general.

But there are not many opportunities to bring down political opponents.

As the queen's maternal family, General Yu's family was naturally classified as the prince's party. This made it impossible for the left prime minister's followers who intended to support the second prince to give up, and of course they had to find an opportunity to bring down their opponents.

Without General Yu, who had made great military achievements and commanded 300,000 troops in the southern border, the Queen and the Crown Prince lost a natural shield.

In this way, the second prince born to Concubine Qi and the third prince born to Concubine Mei will have a chance.

Officials standing on different sides all wanted to dethrone the prince and let their masters ascend the throne.

Therefore, General Yu's family died on the battlefield under the secret instigation of various forces, leaving only an insignificant little son.

No one would take the thin, weak and fair-skinned Yu Rong seriously. After all, this uncle of the king did not have the bravery and fighting ability of his father and brother, nor did he have a wealth of talent. He just had a good-looking face.

But it was this inconspicuous Yu Rong who worked hard to collect evidence from the age of eight to eighteen, and finally reported the conclusive evidence to Emperor Zhang De.

Emperor Zhangde was furious when he heard about this.

How could this middle-aged emperor, who had just turned forty, tolerate his ministers forming cliques for personal gain and intending to support the prince to seize his throne?

What's more, his heir to the throne is the crown prince. The crown prince, who is the eldest and the legitimate son, should be the heir to the Chili Kingdom. How could he allow other princes to covet the throne?

Emperor Zhangde reigned for a full twenty years and was not a confused emperor.

He found out many people based on Yu Rong's evidence and dealt with them ruthlessly.

His throne was to be reserved for the crown prince, and the other princes could only be princes.

You could say he was partial or that he was monopolistic, but he simply trusted the crown prince whom he had personally trained more, and he did not consider other princes.

The prince's followers, headed by the left prime minister, were all cut off by the resolute Emperor Zhang De.

And Yu Rong also avenged his hatred from that year.

Although his father and brother did not regret sacrificing their lives for the country, he could not let their deaths be in vain.

If his father and brother had really just died on the battlefield without any conspiracy from his own people, it would have been fine with him, but it was his own people who pushed his father and brother to death.

In that battle, General Yu and his three sons were all killed. Even Madam Yu and Yu Rong's sister-in-law died in front of the city gate.

Yu Rong is the only one left in the Yu family.

How could Yu Rong remain indifferent? How could he not hate those traitors who betrayed him?

He felt extremely happy when he saw the court officials such as Zuo Xiang who got what they deserved.

It’s a pity that he is not the protagonist of the story, and is even the enemy in the eyes of the protagonist.

Because the protagonist of this world is the youngest son of the Left Prime Minister, a child who should have been sentenced to death for his father's crimes. When his father's house was searched, he changed into a servant's clothes and let his loyal servant die for him.

He hid himself and successfully escaped the disaster. After his entire family was executed, he fled Yanjing and grew up under the name Shen Liangcai.

Five years after the left prime minister's family was executed, this scholar named Shen Liangcai caught the eye of Emperor Zhangde in a flattering way during the imperial examination that year.

Before that imperial examination, the second prince obtained the examination papers through the imperial eunuch beside Emperor Zhangde and sold the contents of the papers.

His original intention was to take this opportunity to overthrow the prince who was ordered to supervise the exam, but he did not expect that a candidate would find Shen Liangcai, who was also preparing for the exam, and ask him to write an outstanding policy essay on his behalf.

The clever male protagonist got the true origin of the test papers through some tricks.

This is the test question for this year’s examination!

After learning the news, Shen Liangcai came up with a brilliant idea.

He spent more than ten days writing a good essay, sold the answer to different candidates, and gave up the examination.

He was waiting for the imperial examination fraud to break out, and fortunately he succeeded in waiting for it.

Zhang Dedi was indeed surprised when he first saw the essay, but he became angry when more and more candidates wrote exactly the same essay.

He ordered to find out the real owner of the article, and Shen Liangcai showed up at this time.

Everything went smoothly. Shen Liangcai gained the emperor's attention with this article and was soon chosen as the leader by Emperor Zhangde.

Perhaps it was the influence of the male protagonist's halo, but from then on Shen Liangcai was able to turn danger into safety everywhere. On the surface, he defected to the crown prince, but in fact he secretly defected to the third prince.

He helped the Third Prince defeat the Crown Prince, and eliminated the Second Prince who was blocking his way, allowing the Third Prince to stand out and become the only choice of Emperor Zhangde.

Emperor Zhangde also passed away a few years after the crown prince committed suicide for a crime and the empress died of depression.

After that, the third prince succeeded to the throne and Shen Liangcai became the new left prime minister. He cleared the case of that year and allowed those who deserved the punishment to return to the place of light and enjoy the incense of sacrifices.

The original owner's death was also secretly planned by Shen Liangcai. Shen Liangcai used the party of the third prince of Yanjing to massacre Yu Rong and his group who were heading south.

Shen Liangcai, who was only eighteen years old at that time, hated Yu Rong, the culprit who caused the annihilation of his entire family, so after he successfully got in touch with the third prince, he immediately attacked Yu Rong.

No one would know that the mastermind behind everything is just an ordinary and unknown scholar.
