"Attack! Retreat!" Only the powerful command was heard. Dozens of soldiers were training seriously, each of them was strong and heroic.
[Wow! This Imperial Guards training ground is pretty good! The air is filled with the scent of hormones!] Xia Miaoyuan was so carried away that he actually revealed an intoxicated expression.
The second prince had a very dark look on his face, and he had no idea what his sister was talking about.
"Greetings to the Second Prince!" A round-faced young general, smiling, trotted towards the Second Prince.
"Oh, isn't this Genroku?" The second prince patted the round-faced young general's shoulder affectionately.
The round-faced young general was named Zhao Yuanlu, and he had a close relationship with the second prince.
[Genroku? Is that the round-faced Zhao Yuanroku?]
When Xia Miaoyuan heard the name Yuanlu, he immediately widened his eyes and stared at Yuanlu.
"Yuanlu, look, this is my sister, Princess Anguo." The second prince held Xia Miaoyuan in front of Yuanlu.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to Princess Anguo!" Zhao Yuanlu deliberately took a step back and gave Xia Miaoyuan an exaggerated salute.
"Hahaha, Yuanlu you kid!"
The Second Prince gave Yuanlu a light kick on his raised butt and jokingly said, "Princess, please let Yuanlu stand up! This is my brother's good friend, General Zhao Yuanlu of the Imperial Guard."
But strangely, Xia Miaoyuan, who always loved to laugh, became solemn when she saw this joyful scene, and looked at Zhao Yuanlu with a compassionate expression.
[Ah, this young man is indeed Zhao Yuanlu, the Zhao Yuanlu who was hacked to death in order to save his second brother! ]
What? Zhao Yuanlu was hacked to death?
The Second Prince froze.
[I remember it was written in the book that Er Guoguo and Zhao Yuanlu had a close relationship because he had done Zhao Yuanlu a favor.]
When Zhao Yuanlu was still a team leader, he was once sent out to protect Er Guoguo's safety.
[As a result, Zhao Yuanlu led the Second Prince the wrong way, causing him to make mistakes. His superiors punished him with 50 blows of the military stick.]
"50 blows of the military stick will cripple him if he doesn't die. That boss is actually seeking revenge."
[Just when Zhao Yuanlu was about to be beaten, the Second Prince saved him and lied that he had taken the wrong road because he was looking for scenery.]
[From then on, Zhao Yuanlu regarded the Second Prince as his savior.]
[Later, when the crown prince was falsely accused of treason, Er Guoguo was also implicated and imprisoned.]
Zhao Yuanlu drugged the guards and went to rob the Dali Temple prison alone.
[In the end, he was outnumbered and hacked to death.]
[It's a pity that he was only 24 years old when he died. His body was torn into pieces and thrown into a mass grave to feed stray dogs.]
When Xia Miaoyuan recalled this, his tone was already difficult.
What? Zhao Yuanlu's ending was so tragic!
