At this critical moment, someone came from outside the cell and he quickly stopped them.
"King Zuo Xian, the Chanyu has an order, General Ning must not be killed and must be subdued!"
Hu Yansu had no choice but to put down his whip, with a fierce and dissatisfied look on his face: "My father has a strong general like me who can protect the Xiongnu, so why are you subduing Ning Shoujiang?"
"It's impossible for the Yanchi people to exchange Longcheng for him. It's better to kill him early and hang his body on the city wall to scare those Yanchi people!"
The guards did not dare to say anything. Seeing Ning Shoujiang's injuries were too shocking, so they had to deal with his injuries first.
After processing, the guards took the people to the Khan's tent.
Ning Shoujiang only felt burning pain all over his body, and even his breathing had a burning sensation. He struggled to open his eyes, and he saw a man with gray hair and sharp eyes staring at him from the seat above.
"General Ning, what are you doing?" Hu Yanqu, the king of the Xiongnu, shook his head, "Do you know that you were betrayed by the Yanchi people who lost two cities in a row?"
Seeing that Ning Shoujiang did not speak, Hu Yanqu continued to be tempting: "General Ning, I know that you are strong-willed and will not give in."
"But if you don't think about yourself, you should also think about your relatives. Their current situation is no better than yours..."
Ning Shoujiang stiffened.
Hu Yanqu came closer, looked down at him condescendingly, and said in a tone full of pity.
"You should have guessed it."
"You failed in your duty of guarding the border. The living people will shirk all the responsibilities on you. The traitors among them will also convey the news to the palace that you colluded with the Huns and betrayed military intelligence. How do you think the emperor will deal with Ning after hearing this news? Home?
Ning Shoujiang's heart ached, and his eyes were full of sadness.
Of course he guessed it.
Many officials in the imperial court were eyeing their father's position as Minister of War, hoping that if something happened to the Ning family, their father would give up the throne.
The late emperor was originally afraid of the Ning family and was dissatisfied with the Ning family's high achievements, so he invited himself to the border and guarded the border for many years in order to dispel the emperor's fear and allow his family to feel at ease while traveling in the capital.
The new emperor had only succeeded to the throne for more than half a year and was busy gathering power. He didn't say he was afraid of the Ning family, but he just said that this matter was convenient for him to seize the opportunity to gather the power of the Ministry of War. How could he help the Ning family? !
From the moment he fell into the trap and was captured, the fate of the Ning family was doomed.
The Ning family is guilty of treason. All the Ning family will be executed!
In a daze of grief, the voice above Ning Shoujiang sounded again.
"After the news of the fall of the two cities and the capture of General Ning came back to the palace, hundreds of officials pointed at General Ning's spine and cursed him. The emperor was furious and had everyone in the Ning family imprisoned and executed on the same day."
"Counting the days, the time for your family to interrogate you will be in three days."
"Your Ning family is full of loyal men, all of them were iron-blooded men who sacrificed their lives for the country. In the end, they died at the hands of their own people. It's sad and deplorable!"
Ning Shoujiang interrupted Hu Yanqu, his voice hoarse: "I know what you want to do, no need to say more!"
"The Ning family's motto is to be loyal to the emperor and protect the country. No matter what happens, even if it means death, the Ning family will not violate it!"
Hu Yanqu's expression changed and he scolded: "I have misjudged you!"
"Loyal to the king and protecting the country? What kind of king are you loyal to? A king who is suspicious of you and even destroys your entire family! Protecting the country? What kind of country are you protecting? The country that betrayed you and abandoned you!"
"You, the Ning family, don't call this affectionate and righteous, it's stupid! It's selfish!"
"Why not be loyal to a king who trusts you and values you? Those hypocritical villains and cold-blooded tyrants in the imperial court are not worthy of your protection at all. Only the innocent people of Li are worth it."
"Why not surrender to the Xiongnu, flatten the Yanchi Palace, and let the people live under the rule of Meiji? This is truly for the benefit of the people of Yanchi!"
"As long as you agree to surrender to my king, and your family is beheaded in three days, I can send people to capture them for you and bring them back to the Huns!"
"What's more important, your faith or your family's life? Think about it carefully in these three days!"
"Take it down!"
The guards immediately dragged Ning Shoujiang's body down.
Ning Shoujiang closed his eyes and shed tears of blood.
The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked!
The Ning family has always had only one belief, and that is to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country!
Why did such a simple thing lead to countless suspicions, being betrayed and hurt by one's own people, and finally ending up like this?
Thirty years ago, the Xiongnu invaded, only two cities away from reaching the capital. It was Yanchi who his father risked his life to save!
Fourteen years ago, the Huns made a comeback. It was the second, third and fourth brothers who died on the battlefield with their own flesh and blood, protecting Yan Chi!
Now... now he is the only heir left in the Ning family, but he was betrayed by his own people, and the entire Ning family died in the hands of Yan Chi, who he desperately protected.
How ironic and tragic!
Is the belief that the Ning family has held on to for so many years really wrong?
After Ning Shoujiang left, Hu Yanqu sat back on the tiger chair.
"Hmph, it's a tough bone! But no matter how hot the blood is, it should be cold after this experience."
The only thing that surprised Huyanqu was the news from Yanchi Palace. The emperor actually said that he would protect the Ning family before finding out the truth.
How ridiculous!
Outside the tent, a guard came to send a message: "Chanyu, the wizard Yue Kun has arrived."
Hu Yanqu immediately came to his senses: "Please invite her in quickly."
Speaking of Wizard Yue Kun, he is a strange person.
Before she was fifteen years old, she was just an ordinary person. One day, a vision came from the sky near her home. Colorful lights hung in the sky. All the sheep, horses and cows within a hundred miles of the village crashed into trees and died, spontaneously offering sacrifices.
After a bolt of lightning struck Wizard Yue Kun's house, she completely awakened the will of God.
From then on, his temperament changed drastically, and his divination skills became superb. He could not only drive away evil and avoid evil, but also eliminate disasters and bring blessings.
Hu Yanqu's health has been getting worse and worse recently. He is getting older and is unable to do many things, so he summons the legendary Yue Kun wizard to bless his body.
Not long after, a woman with complicated ancient patterns painted on her face and a string of sixty-six ferocious beast fangs hanging around her neck, including different ferocious beasts, slowly walked in.
Hu Yanqu was about to speak when he saw Wizard Yue Kun frown suddenly and quickly came to Hu Yanqu. Without saying a word, he took out the divination.
After finishing the divination, Wizard Yue Kun sighed heavily, and murmured to himself with relief: "Misfortune lies on the back of good fortune, good fortune lies on the back of misfortune, that's how it is..."
The most taboo thing when seeing a doctor is that the doctor silently frowns and sighs in three consecutive moves. When looking at a wizard, it is even more taboo that after the doctor performs these three sets of moves, he will mumble something that he does not understand.
Hu Yanqu immediately became anxious: "Are the hexagrams good or bad? Wizard Yue Kun, what do you mean by this?"
Wizard Yuekun said leisurely.
"Fourteen years ago, the Huns were defeated and suffered humiliation. Khan, you sent your most unpopular son to the Yanchi Palace as a hostage to sue for peace. This was a disaster, but it saved a little blessing for the present."
The more Hu Yanqu listened, the more confused he became. Why was this matter related to his abandoned son?
He had no choice but to continue listening patiently.
"In order to cultivate the most capable King Zuoxian, you allowed the twelve sons of the Xiongnu to compete and fight. Now only King Zuoxian of Huyansu is left. He is brave, good at fighting, brave and strategic, and will definitely be able to lead the Xiongnu to conquer all directions. , this is a blessing.”
"But he is not the biological son of the Khan, so something went wrong."
As soon as he said these words, Hu Yanqu's pupils tightened and his breathing began to quicken.
"Wizard Yuekun, did you read the hexagram wrongly?"
Wizard Yue Kun shook his head: "Khan, you must have inquired about my abilities before you summoned me. I have awakened my divine will and been blessed by the gods. I have never missed any predictions."
"Khan will know the truth if he investigates this matter carefully."
Hu Yanqu was silent for a moment, and finally waved his hand: "Go down, don't tell anyone about this matter."
"Yes, Khan." Wizard Yuekun stepped back leisurely.
The moment he turned around, Wizard Yue Kun, Fang Yaoer, who spent money to create this awesome wizard character, raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
As people get older, they tend to have more random thoughts and suspicions, especially now that Hu Yansu has become the new king, supported by everyone, and is very independent in doing things. This not only makes Hu Yanqu feel happy, but also makes him unable to help but doubt and doubt. fear.
Now that the seed of suspicion of not being biological has been planted in Huyanqu's heart, and then, just waiting for it to grow on its own, Fang Yaoer will continue to add fuel to the fire, and the needles placed by His Majesty in the Xiongnu will work~
She knew that she, Fang Yaoer, must be someone who would achieve great things!
If she succeeds in instigating discord among the Huns, the Fang family's genealogy will have to be rewritten starting from her, Fang Yao'er!
Inside the tent, Hu Yanqu looked suspicious and serious.
Of course, he couldn't believe it immediately based on Wizard Yue Kun's words.
But this matter is of great importance and must be investigated clearly before he can feel at ease!
After calling his confidants to explain the matter, Hu Yanqu sat down, looking a little dazed.
Xu Shi couldn't help but think about it along with his suspicion. The more he thought about it, the more evidence he felt that Hu Yansu was not his biological son.
"Don't think too much, maybe there is something wrong with Wizard Yue Kun, everything must be investigated clearly before making a conclusion!"
No matter what, the protons he gave up must be recovered!
Ning Shoujiang could no longer be conquered or killed. He had to use Ning Shoujiang's life in exchange for his son's life!
Hu Yanqu had a headache. As a result, the game between the Xiongnu and Yanchi became a disadvantage for the Xiongnu again.
After saying this, Hu Yanqu couldn't help but start thinking in his heart.
At that time, Hu Yansu's mother was snatched away by him because of his fancy. Soon after she followed him, he had Su'er. Could it be that she had already been with her former adulterer...
No, you can’t just think about it!
Su'er's eyebrows don't look much like her either...
I can't think about it anymore!
What does the adulterer look like...
