Who is this "he" you're referring to?

I don't know Huy Ton, or Huy Khanh. But I know Nguyen Trai 阮廌. He was an advisor of Lê Lợi 黎利 (later became King Lê Thái Tổ 黎太祖), famous for his contribution to the rebellion against the Ming. I know that Nguyễn Trăi is related to the royal Trần family from his maternal side (hence he could have been related to me kekeke). His mother was daughter of Trần Nguyên Đán 陳元旦 who was like the 6th generation great-grandson of Trần Cảnh 陳煚 (or Trần Thái Tông 陳太宗, the first king of the Tran dynasty). I don't know how his father was, probably a nobody. Just kidding. For all I know, his father was a student or a scholar who luckily won the heart of a noble lady with a few poetry lines, and they gave birth to him.

I'm surprised they got any descendant left though...because he was convicted of murdering King Lê Thái Tông 黎太宗 (son of Lê Lợi 黎利) and his entire family, as well as his wife's family, and his mother's family, were sentenced to death :(((((((((((((( Very sad. Later, King Lê Thánh Tông 黎聖宗 (son of the supposedly murdered king Lê Thái Tông 黎太宗) re-investigated the case and brought justice back to him...but it was too late, his entire family was already killed. So yea, I'm surprised he left any descendant to this day. OMG. The entire Le clan owes him an apology.
