Soon, the gate of the imperial city opened, and as a eunuch came out and shouted loudly, the civil and military ministers automatically divided into two sides, with the civil ministers on the left and the generals on the right, and walked into the imperial city together.
After entering the main hall, the civil and military ministers were still clearly standing on the left and right sides of the main hall.
Zhao Ziliang's military position was too small and his military rank was too low.
There were already people in the hall, so he could only stand outside the hall door.
After the emperor arrived, all the civil and military ministers knelt down to salute and shouted "long live the emperor" loudly.
Zhao Ziliang was wearing armor and could not salute, so he could only bow his hands slightly towards the palace.
At the beginning of the court meeting, they were talking about government affairs.
Zhao Ziliang had never attended a court meeting before, so he listened carefully.
The emperor didn't call Gai Jiayun's name until all the political affairs were dealt with.
"Where is Gai Jiayun, the deputy governor of Anxi and the governor of the four towns of Anxi?"
Gai Jiayun quickly walked to the middle of the hall and saluted: "I'm here."
Li Longji said: "Gai Jiayun was transferred to Hexi Jiedushi; the former Hexi Jiedushi Xiao Jiong was appointed separately; Anxi military envoy Tian Renwan was promoted to the Jiedushi of the Four Towns of Anxi; the former Shule Town envoy Fu Meng Ling Cha was promoted to be the military envoy of the capital of Anxi, and the general under the command of Jiayun."
Gai Jiayun immediately saluted and paid homage: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live my emperor."
"Where is Zhao Ziliang, the governor of Suiye Governor's Mansion?"
When Zhao Ziliang heard the emperor calling his name, he quickly strode into the hall, walked to the middle of the hall, cupped his hands and saluted, "The general is here."
At this time, Gao Lishi shouted: "Bold Zhao Ziliang, why don't you be polite when you see your majesty?"
After Zhao Ziliang was vaccinated by Gai Jiayun at the gate of the imperial city, he was already prepared in his heart.
He thought to himself that the most I can do is to take off my armor and return to the fields.
What else can you do?
Seeing Gao Lishi being so difficult, Zhao Ziliang cupped his hands and said in a deep voice: "The general is wearing armor and cannot perform full salutes.
This is the preferential treatment and honor given by Emperor Taizong to soldiers.
Soldiers can die on the battlefield or be wrapped in horse leather, but they cannot be without honor."
Li Longji didn't know what he was thinking.
He didn't blame Gao Lishi for interrupting midway.
He waved his hand and Gao Lishi stepped aside.
Li Longji looked at Zhao Ziliang and asked: "Zhao Aiqing, recently, the Golden Light Gate has always been closed at night.
After the city gate is closed, there are people climbing over the eaves and walking over the walls to enter and exit the city, as if there is no one around.
The gate guard is actually helpless.
I have I have sent him home to farm.
You have killed countless enemies in the Western Regions and have made outstanding achievements in battle.
I think you should be able to deal with such a trivial person.
I want you to be the guard of the Jinguang Gate and promote you to General Dingyuan. , are you willing?”
Of course Zhao Ziliang didn't want to be a bullshit guard of the Jinguang Sect.
Although his military rank had been raised by one level, he was just a watchdog.
In fact, he rose up and down secretly, but at this time he had to say that he didn't want to.
With Gai Jiayun's reminder, Zhao Ziliang agreed without hesitation: "I will only obey the order in the end."
"If you have something to say, just say it.
It's not like I won't let others talk."
Zhao Ziliang said: "My late father passed away last year, and I was unable to return home to fulfill my filial piety because I was far away in Anxi.
I would also like to ask your Majesty to allow your Majesty to return to my hometown to observe my filial piety for three years."
This sounds a bit like antagonizing the emperor, but it is normal human ethics for Zhao Ziliang to go home for three years after his father died.
If an official does not return home for three years after his father dies, others will think that he does not care about his official position.
Being filial will be looked down upon.
The civil and military ministers immediately started whispering after hearing Zhao Ziliang's words, and many ministers and generals nodded secretly.
After hearing this, Gao Lishi immediately glanced at Li Linfu, who was standing at the head of the civil service.

Li Linfu was always good at figuring out the holy will.
He had long understood the emperor's thoughts and could not let the emperor lose face.
Gao Lishi was also fighting.
With a wink, he stood up and greeted Li Longji.
After the ceremony, he said: "Your Majesty, Jinguangmen cannot be guarded by capable generals.
Moreover, General Zhao is superb in martial arts and invincible.
He is the future pillar of the imperial court.
Letting him go home for three years is a loss to the imperial court.
Wei Wei In my humble opinion, Your Majesty should seize love and retaliate."
Li Longji frowned when he heard this, and after a moment of silence he said: "Zhao Aiqing, it is the duty of a daughter to go home and observe filial piety to your father, but Jinguang Gate is a very important gate in Chang'an City, and it is related to Chang'an.
Your safety is in danger, and you cannot live without a general to guard you.
I will allow you to take a month and a half vacation to return to your hometown and offer a few sticks of incense to your father.
What do you think?"
Zhao Ziliang sighed secretly and had no choice but to agree: "The general will obey the order."
After the dispersion of the dynasty, Zhao Ziliang came out of the palace, feeling a little depressed for a while, but he had to take up the position of city gate guard.
This was appointed by the emperor himself.
If he wanted to resign, he had to ask the emperor if he could not do it.
Zhao Ziliang I just pushed it down in the court, there is no need to wait until now, the key is that I can't push it away even if I push it.
Only then did Zhao Ziliang finally understand the influence of eunuchs and eunuchs on the emperor in the history of the Tang Dynasty.
It wasn't until he left the city that Bai Xiaode couldn't help but ask: "General, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Ziliang reined in his horse and said, "The emperor asked me to hold the city gate."
"What?"
Bai Xiaode shouted, "A general is a brave warrior.
His strength lies in fighting on the battlefield, rather than being the best gate guard among any captains."
Back at the villa, Zhao Ziliang gathered everyone together, announced the fact that he had been appointed by the emperor as the guard of Jinguang Gate, and said: "The matter has become a foregone conclusion.
I don't want to delay your future.
If you still want to stay, every time A month's worth of food and clothing will not cost you a penny.
If you find other ways to find a future, I won't stop you.
Each of you will be given a severance pay of ten guan, and the horse you ride can also be ridden.
Let’s go, now you can choose.”
After a period of whispers and chatter, about forty people, including the servants and servants, stood up and expressed their wish to leave.
These people were pointed out and scolded as ungrateful by others who were not ready to leave.
The scolded people were very embarrassed, but at this time they had already made up their minds and did not argue with those scolding people.
Zhao Ziliang immediately asked Zheng San to pay severance pay to the forty people who wanted to leave.
After sending these people away, Zhao Ziliang looked at the remaining people plus the servants and there were about eighty people, including Chen Qingying and Wang Zhiyun's mother and daughter.
There are ten servants inside, and the remaining seventy are all powerful cavalry retinues.
Among them are generally Shule people brought over by Bo Lehan.
The other half are mostly Han people, and a few are people of other ethnic groups.
"Well, I am very happy that you are willing to stay.
As long as you have something to eat from me, you will not be hungry.
You all go back and pack up.
Tomorrow, I will leave to visit my relatives in my hometown.
I have to leave some people here to watch.
With Zhuangzi, Bo Lehan, you take fifty people to stay, while Bai Xiaode takes twenty people to follow me."
In the evening, Chen Qingying found Zhao Ziliang and said, "I can't live without someone to serve me on my way back to my hometown.

I'll let Zhiyun follow me and scout all the way."
Zhao Ziliang waved his hand and said: "Forget it, the emperor only gave me a month and a half of leave.
I have to go back and take office quickly to avoid being used by some scoundrels in the court to impeach me.
She can't ride a horse and will only drag when following me.
Slow down the road."
Chen Qingying heard this and said: "Then let's go with the master.
The slave can ride a horse and will not slow down the master on his way."
"You?"
Zhao Ziliang shook his head, "Can your body and bones bear it?
You should stay."
Chen Qingying gritted her teeth and said: "Master, Zhiyun is not young anymore.
The slave family can see that she loves the master.
If the master does not dislike it, the slave family will entrust her to the master.
The slave family also knows that she will be worthy of my status."
If she doesn't marry the master, the slave family doesn't ask the master to marry her as a matchmaker, as long as she can be given the status of a concubine, that's enough."
Zhao Ziliang smiled in his heart when he heard this, turned around and asked, "What if I want you?"
When Chen Qingying heard this, her face turned red with embarrassment.
She turned away and whispered: "Master, don't be joking.
We are already old and yellow, and we have the body of a fallen flower and the appearance of a willow tree.
How can we be worthy of the master?"
" Zhao Ziliang said: "Master, I also like this girl Zhiyun, but she hasn't grown up yet.
Let's wait until she grows up.
Now, master, I will tell you about you.
Are you willing to follow me?"
Chen Qingying was shocked and said: "Master, this is not possible, this is not possible.
The slave family has only heard of sisters serving the same husband, but never heard of mothers and daughters serving the same husband.
This is too ridiculous, too ridiculous."
Zhao Ziliang didn't expect Chen Qingying's reaction to be so big.
He laughed dumbly and said: "What's ridiculous about this?
This kind of thing does not happen among the people, even in the royal family.
The emperor can like his daughter-in-law, and he wants to If I want to keep it as my own, why can’t I marry you mother and daughter?”
When Chen Qingying heard this, her face turned pale with fright: "Master, please don't talk nonsense.
You must never say such disrespectful words again.
Otherwise, if someone hears it and spreads it, I'm afraid it will cause big trouble."
"Uh" Zhao Ziliang felt a little inappropriate after being reminded by Chen Qingying, and said quickly: "Of course, I only dare to say this when I am with you, and I would not dare to say this with others.
So what, what did we just say?
If you don't object to what I said, it's settled.
When Zhiyun reaches the age of eighteen and is fully grown, I will take her in.
As for you, I will marry you when I return from my hometown."
Chen Qingying was anxious: "No, no, how can I marry my daughter to the master?
I will be gossiped behind my back."
"If others want to gossip, let them gossip.
You live for yourself, not for them.
That's it, right?"
Zhao Ziliang said, opening his arms and saying: "Come, undress me." , you will be here to scout me tonight."

"Ah, no, no, the slave family is leaving first," Chen Qingying said, turning around and running outside.
"Don't go, sir.
I've been thinking about your body for a long time."
Zhao Ziliang quickly walked over, hugged her waist, and picked her up.
"ah"
"Shh, don't scream, do you want everyone to hear it?"
The screams suddenly stopped, and Zhao Ziliang took her back and threw her on the couch.
Suddenly, the room was filled with the sound of strenuous and suppressed breathing
