Which figure, formerly aligned with Saul's house, was murdered by Joab?

Explanation:
Abner was the commander who had led Saul’s army and then shifted his loyalty to David, helping to establish David’s rule after Saul’s dynasty. Joab killed Abner to avenge his brother Asahel, who had fallen at Abner’s hand in an earlier pursuit. This makes Abner the figure who fits the description of someone formerly aligned with Saul’s house and who was murdered by Joab. The other names don’t fit because Jonathan remained loyal to David until his death, Nathan was a prophet, and Michal was Saul’s daughter who did not fall to Joab.
