Chapter 219: Lost and Found


Zhao Ziliang arrived at the city gate early on the morning of the second day after he took office as the city gate official.

At this time, there was a constant flow of pedestrians, carriages and horses at the city gate, and it was very lively.

There were overcrowded people waiting to leave the city and outside the city.

This was mainly because Zhao Ziliang was a newcomer.

After taking office, both the soldiers and the soldiers wanted to perform better in front of Zhao Ziliang, so they were particularly careful when checking passers-by.

Zhao Ziliang stood watching with his hands behind his back until the sun was shining and there were fewer pedestrians.

Zhao Ziliang waved to Tao Dakun, who was on duty today.

Tao Dakun took two steps forward and said, "General, what are your orders?"

Zhao Ziliang said: "None of these soldiers have homes near the capital."

"Well, three of my subordinates are from prefectures and counties.

It seems that two of Lao Wu's subordinates live not far from here.

What does the general want?"

Tao Dakun was stunned for a moment, but still replied.

Tao Dakun actually didn't have much respect for Zhao Ziliang.

Whether in his heart or in action, he had already heard that Zhao Ziliang was General Dingyuan, but he was sent to be the city gate general.

This was obviously because he was demoted.

It seemed to him that the superiors definitely did not like Zhao Ziliang.

Otherwise, Zhao Ziliang would only be a city gate general in his life, and he might even be demoted to a lower level.

For a boss who was disliked by his superiors and obviously had no future, Tao Dakun thought It doesn't require much respect.

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay.

I have some things to deal with, general, so I'll leave first.

I'll leave this to you."

Zhao Ziliang said, turning around and leaving without waiting for Tao Dakun to speak.

Tao Dakun reacted and shook his head, the look of contempt on his face became even stronger.

Zhao Ziliang rode out of the city towards Zhuangzi, with Bai Xiaode and others following behind.

Zhao Ziliang suddenly reined in his horse, and the followers behind him also reined in their horses.

Bai Xiaode thought for a moment, then stepped forward and cupped his hands: "General, although you have been The emperor sent you to guard the city gate, but you also You can't just ignore everything.

If something happens here at the city gate, the emperor will have an excuse to embarrass you even more.

Moreover, Tao Dakun and Wu Zhicheng obviously look down on you and don't take you seriously.

How can these two villains?

Look for opportunities to see if I kill them."

Zhao Ziliang said: "Xiao De, you heard just now that there are five soldiers in the Jinguangmen garrison who live in nearby counties and counties.

Send someone to find out where their homes are, and then send someone Go and notify their parents and relatives to come."

"This" Bai Xiaode didn't understand what Zhao Ziliang meant at all, "General, I don't understand what you mean."

Zhao Ziliang said: "Just say that I invite them to come over and see how their son is living here.

The cost of traveling back and forth will be paid for by my military salary.

They must come over.

They can't come if they don't come."

Bai Xiaode had a puzzled look on his face and agreed, "No, I will make arrangements when I get back."

Daming Palace.

It was the place where emperors of the Tang Dynasty lived and conducted political affairs.

Li Longji put down his royal pen and couldn't help but twist his neck.

Concubine Mei, who was making tea at the side, saw it and said with a smile: "Your Majesty must be tired.

I will rub your shoulders for your Majesty."

Li Longji nodded and said with a smile: "Okay" Concubine Mei rubbed Li Longji's shoulders and neck for a while, and then she heard Li Longji say: "Concubine Mei, let's go for a walk outside."

As soon as they walked out of the temple, they met Taoist Priests Yuzhen and Taizhen.

Li Longji was very happy to see them and invited them to take a walk together.

The two female Taoist priests readily agreed.

A few people were walking and came to the vicinity of the Royal Horse Prison.

Suddenly, a horse broke through the guardrail of the stable, knocking over several grooms and running wildly on the Royal Horse Prison's pasture.

"It's time to go, come and take a look."

Li Longji said, hurriedly throwing off his sleeves and striding towards the Royal Horse Prison.

Mei Fei, Yuzhen, and Taoist Priest Taizhen hurriedly followed.

An official and the emperor unexpectedly appeared in the Royal Horse Prison.

He was shocked and hurriedly came forward to pay homage: "Your Majesty, the horse has gone crazy.

It is not safe here.

Your Majesty, please return to the palace quickly."

Li Longji looked at the horse and said in surprise: "Isn't that my black dragon?

How could it be like this?"

The official smiled helplessly and said: "Your Majesty, you don't know.

This black dragon has been disobedient since it was sent to the Royal Horse Prison.

It can eat and drink, but no one can control it, and no one can ride it.

Its back, in the past two months, it has injured more than a dozen of our grooms in a row, and broken countless wooden fences, and it only needs wine and meat."

Not to mention other people, even Li Longji found it incredible.

Is he raising a horse or an uncle?

After Li Longji looked at the black dragon that was still running wildly, he asked: "You just said that no one will ride it."

"Yes, Your Majesty"

After hearing this, Li Longji really didn't believe in evil.

He said: "It is indeed a good horse that is unique in ten thousand.

I really don't believe that no one can ride it.

Concubine Mei, come and bring me some clothes.

Today I If you are interested, let’s see how I can conquer it.”

As soon as these words were said, everyone in the Royal Horse Prison knelt on the ground, and the official said urgently: "Your Majesty, you must not do it.

This black dragon horse has an extremely violent temper.

Only a powerful general can make it surrender."

Before he could speak, he was interrupted by Li Longji: "Stop, you are saying that I am not as powerful as the generals."

"No, no, no, your Majesty has misunderstood what I mean.

What I mean is that your Majesty's strengths lie in controlling the power of the world and governing the country.

If you want to subdue this black dragon horse, you will not be able to surrender it without strength and endurance far beyond ordinary people.

Your Majesty If you must ride it, please ask me to tame it before allowing Your Majesty to ride it, so as to ensure His Majesty's safety."

At this time, Yang Yu also persuaded: "Your Majesty, what you say is not unreasonable.

Your Majesty is a body of ten thousand gold.

He is responsible for the safety of the country and the country of the Tang Dynasty.

You must not make any mistakes.

If your Majesty can surrender this horse, it will be fine.

If you cannot surrender, it will be fine." , Your Majesty wants to kill it.

Don’t you love it very much?

If you are willing to kill it, your Majesty might as well give it to General Zhao.

At least it will be with you.

General Zhao can exert his own value in his hands, and he can still be employed on the battlefield, instead of dying of old age in this imperial garden.

Your Majesty, everyone has his own mission in this world.

For example, your Majesty's mission is to govern the country of the Tang Dynasty, so that The people have enough food and clothing.

Sister Mei Fei and their mission are to serve His Majesty well so that He has more energy and a better mood.

In handling state affairs, the mission of the ministers is to assist His Majesty in governing the country.

The mission of the common people is to grow more food, weave more cloth, clothes, shoes and hats.

The mission of the craftsmen is to forge more weapons, bows, arrows, vehicles, and generals.

The mission of soldiers is to fight on the battlefield and expand territory for Your Majesty.

War horses also have their own mission.

Their mission is to serve His Majesty.

Generals and cavalry, so that they can better kill the enemy.

Your Majesty, keeping such a good horse here is tantamount to depriving it of its mission.

Whether it is a human or a war horse, without its mission, it is just a walking corpse. , how can your majesty bear it?

Maybe your majesty is worried that it will die on the battlefield, but isn't it the best destination for it to die on the battlefield?"

After Yang Yu said these words, she suddenly felt a little uneasy.

This was the first time she said this to Li Longji, and she still had a preaching tone.

If the emperor was angry, she would end badly.

No one said anything at the scene.

They were all frightened by Yang Yu's words.

To preach to the emperor was not to seek death.

However, Princess Yuzhen was worried that the emperor would be angry with Yang Yu, so she mustered up the courage to intercede on her behalf: "Brother Emperor, sister Taizhen was confused for a moment and said the wrong thing.

Please calm down brother Emperor."

Unexpectedly, Li Longji raised his palms and sighed: "No, Yumei, Huan'er is not wrong, she is right.

Each of us has a mission, and it also has its own mission.

I was wrong, I shouldn't have Keeping it in captivity in this horse prison deprives it of the opportunity to roam the battlefield."

At this point, Li Longji turned to ask Gao Lishi: "By the way, how is Zhao Ziliang doing as the defender at Jinguang Gate?"

Gao Lishi looked at Princess Yuzhen, Yang Yu, Mei Fei and others, lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, Zhao Ziliang has been in office for more than half a month, but I seem to have heard that he spends three days fishing and two days drying nets, and does not often visit Jinguangmen.

On duty”.

"Oh" Li Longji was just confused after hearing this, and his expression didn't change much.

Li Longji looked at Yang Yu again and asked, "Huan'er, what do you think I should do with this black dragon horse?"

Yang Yu made a blessing and said: "The horse belongs to your majesty, and you can do with it as you wish.

I am a poor man and cannot speak nonsense."

Li Longji originally wanted to talk to Yang Yu more, let her decide on the horse's disposal, and at the same time please her, but she didn't accept the move, which made him helpless.

After thinking for a while, Li Longji said to everyone: "Speaking of which, the real owner of this horse is not me.

The big cannibal once wanted to give it to me, but it was robbed by Tuqishi on the way here.

It was robbed before the big eater gave it to me, so it doesn’t belong to me yet, but Zhao Ziliang snatched it from the Tuqi Shiren again, so its real owner is Zhao Ziliang, but I snatched it from Zhao Ziliang's hand.

Zhao Ziliang is a minister and dare not resist my will.

I did something wrong, Lishi. , send someone to return it to Zhao Ziliang."

"Nuo" Gao Lishi quickly agreed, but at this time he was very nervous.

The emperor wanted to return the horse to Zhao Ziliang.

What does this mean?

Is he planning to reuse it?

At this time, the emperor asked again: "What is Zhao Ziliang doing recently?"

Gao Lishi said: "He goes to Jinguang Gate every now and then to inspect.

Sometimes he checks in the barracks next to the city gate.

Usually he stays in his village in the south of the city to practice martial arts and riding and shooting."

Li Longji frowned and said: "Didn't I ask him to guard the city gate and catch the Jiangyang thieves flying around?

Why does he stay in the village all day long, so that he can catch the snitch?

Is the snitch still haunting the Jinguangmen area recently?"

Gao Lishi replied: "Maybe General Zhao has his own ideas.

However, since General Zhao took office, he has not found any snitches in the Jinguangmen area, but."

"But what" "But the snitch appeared in several other gates, sometimes in Mingde Gate, sometimes in Kaiyuan Gate, and sometimes in the area of ​​Tonghua Gate and Yanxing Gate."

The emperor was furious: "According to what you said, as long as this thief appears in any door, I will have to transfer Zhao Ziliang to that door."

Gao Lishi knelt down in horror and said: "This old slave is guilty of death, guilty of death."

"Humph" Li Longji flicked his sleeves and left, followed by other concubines and chamberlains.

That day, Zhao Ziliang, Bai Xiaode and others had just arrived at Jinguang Gate to guard, and they saw a horse tied to a big tree next to him.

Isn't that his ulima?

The ulima neighed with excitement after seeing him.

Zhao Ziliang Confused, he came to Tao Dakun and asked, "Why is the horse here?"

Tao Dakun was more respectful this time, and he cupped his hands and said: "General, this is sent by someone from the palace, and it is said that it will be returned to the general."

It must be said that this Ulima was lost and recovered.

Although he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd, Zhao Ziliang was still very happy that the Ulima was back with him
