After Zhao Ziliang finished handling Hemar's matter, he quickly rushed back to the palace to reply to Xuanzong, and Xuanzong received him in the imperial garden.
"Your Majesty, the matter of Hemar, the Eastern Roman envoy, has been resolved.
The purpose of their trip is not all to obtain our weapons and crossbow making technology.
Now this matter is not feasible, so they want to stay in the capital and our country.
To carry out cultural and religious exchanges” "Oh, that's fine.
As long as it doesn't affect the relationship between the two countries and doesn't affect the sale of our goods to the West."
Xuanzong said, taking a piece of fruit pulp handed over by Mei Fei and putting it in his mouth to eat.
Xuanzong remembered something, stood up and waved to Zhao Ziliang: "Follow me."
Zhao Ziliang was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up and followed.
Not long after, they arrived at the Zichen Hall again.
Xuanzong pointed to the hill-like pile of memorials on the imperial desk and said, "Since you took office as Zuojinwuwei and Youwei General, you have made great achievements.
It is said that Chang'an County The public security situation has been greatly improved.
The courtiers have all restrained themselves a lot.
They did not close their doors and did not pick up things on the street as they did during the Zhenguan period.
But you have caused me a lot of trouble for such a long time.
Look, these are all courtiers.
With this memorial to impeach you, you have already aroused the public indignation of all the officials in the capital."
Of course Zhao Ziliang knew how serious what he had done was, and he had already heard about many courtiers impeaching him.
However, on the one hand, he did it out of a sense of responsibility, and on the other hand, he did it deliberately.
You can't take refuge in Li Linfu, nor can you If he could seek refuge with the prince's family, he could only cling to the emperor's lap, and vigorously rectifying the public security in the capital through Zuo Jinwu Guards not only offended Li Linfu severely, but also offended the officials of the prince's family.
Only in this way, he Only in this way can we gain the emperor's trust and protection.
Zhao Ziliang knew that the emperor had brought him here alone to show him these memorials, and he knew that the emperor regarded him as one of his own, otherwise he would not have shown him these memorials to impeach him, so he couldn't stand the memorials and immediately bowed down. : "I didn't know that this humble minister would bring so much trouble to His Majesty.
It is really a capital crime.
Please forgive me."
Xuanzong waved his hand and said: "Forget it, how can I punish a meritorious minister?
But this time you have offended too many people.
Although I want to protect you, I can't do it too obviously, otherwise it will only cause discord between the emperor and his ministers." , which is not good for the imperial court. , you can't sit down, so be it, this year is the year of the martial arts examination, I decree that you first go to the Ministry of War to take up a casual position, and when the martial arts examination is about to begin, I will decree that you will be the examiner of the martial arts examination. , you can find some generals and seedlings for me.”
If it was in the later Ming and Qing Dynasties, the examiner of the martial arts examination should at least be the Minister of Military Affairs.
However, Xuanzong asked Zhao Ziliang, an idle general, to preside over the martial arts examination.
This shows that the Tang Dynasty did not attach great importance to the martial arts examination, at least the martial arts examination.
The status of civil examination is much lower than that of civil examination.
Zhao Ziliang really didn't know much about the martial arts examination.
Seeing that Xuanzong actually gave him the position of examiner of the martial arts examination, he was quite surprised and immediately asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know what the main content of the martial arts examination is."
"Horse shooting, infantry shooting, flat shooting, carbine shooting, weight wrestling, infantry fighting, mounted fighting, etc."
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said to Xuanzong: "Your Majesty, if you only take these tests, it will be difficult to find real generals.
At most, you can only find brave generals and fierce generals.
If you want to find an enemy of ten thousand people, one hundred thousand enemies, or one million To be an enemy's general, the first thing to test is not these contents, but It is the art of war, tactics and military strategy.
Of course, these are just words on paper.
Next, we need to test the ability to actually arrange troops and lead troops in combat.
This can select real generals for Your Majesty.
After these tests, we will test personal force. projects, these can be used to select strong talents for the competition.”
After hearing this, Xuanzong was deeply convinced.
He was overjoyed and immediately said to Zhao Ziliang: "That's right, that's right.
That's how it should be.
I'll leave this matter to you.

Don't screw it up."
"promise" Two days later, Xuanzong issued an order to remove Zhao Ziliang from his position as General of Zuo Jinwu Guard and Right Guard, and transferred him to the Ministry of War as a doctor in the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War.
He was not responsible for the selection of military attachés, but was specifically responsible for this year's military examination.
This position It's just from the fifth rank, and Zhao Ziliang's General Dingyuan's military rank is from the fifth rank, which is equivalent to being demoted two levels in a row.
After receiving the news, the courtiers, noble children, dandy children and royal relatives immediately clapped their hands and were very happy.
Many people gloated about the misfortune.
However, the system implemented by Zhao Ziliang in Zuojinwuwei was retained and continued to be implemented unswervingly.
The security situation in Chang'an County did not worsen because of Zhao Ziliang's departure.
Zhao Ziliang is free again.
The martial arts examination will not be held until the autumn.
It is spring now, and we have to wait for more than half a year.
However, there are still some things that Zhao Ziliang needs to do, which is to send a document to all prefectures and counties across the country to list the results of today's martial arts examination.
The examination items and the conditions required for candidates were sent out, and all states and counties across the country were asked to assist in posting notices everywhere.
This thing was very easy, Zhao Ziliang finished it easily, and then he practiced martial arts diligently and read military books familiarly.
After seeing the notices posted by the Ministry of War across the country, heroes from all over the country rushed to Chang'an City.
Zhao Ziliang didn't care about any of this.
After two months, Chen Qingying's belly became bigger and bigger, and Zhao Ziliang basically stayed at home with her.
In early June, Chen Qingying gave birth to a son.
As soon as the son was born, his cry was very loud, like thunder.
Zhao Ziliang was overjoyed and named him Zhao Lei.
Zhao Lei was born with thick bones and strong muscles, even though he was a child.
A baby, but just by looking at his face and body shape, you know that he will become a military commander when he grows up.
Zhao Ziliang was preparing to serve Zhao Lei with full moon wine when he received news of the war situation from Hexi.
Wang Can hurriedly walked to the training ground and reported to Zhao Ziliang who was holding Zhao Lei: "General, an urgent flying pigeon message came from Hexi.
Tubo raised 400,000 troops, entered Changning Bridge in the west, defeated the Heyuan Army, and advanced through the Heyuan Army.
When we attacked Anxi, fortunately our Hunya Peak Cavalry General Zang Xiyan discovered it in time and led 5,000 elite cavalry to ambush the 30,000-strong vanguard of the Tibetan army.
The Tibetan army was severely defeated.
Zang Xiyan took advantage of the situation to pursue and killed countless enemies, and the Tibetan army retreated.
Army" Zhao Ziliang frowned when he heard this and said: "Isn't the Heyuan Army a large army under the command of Longyou Jiedushi?
What did Huangfu Weiming do?"
Wang Can shook his head and said: "I'm afraid Huangfu Weiming is not to blame for this.
After he learned that the Heyuan Army was defeated, he immediately organized troops to prepare to fight the Tubo army.
However, no one expected that the Tubo army would abandon him and choose to march westward and turn around.
The guns are directed against the Anxi Army."
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said: "The Tubo army suffered little loss this time.
I'm afraid they will come back soon.
What I am worried about now is not Huangfu Weiming.
If Tubo does this, he will definitely be on guard.
But Gai, who is located in Hexi, Mr.
Jiayun has neglected military affairs this year.
Once the Tubo army attacks Hexi, he may not be able to resist him.
Now that I am speechless, I can't even try to remind Mr.
Gai.
I just hope that he can be more vigilant and don't allow the Tubo to take advantage of him.
"Machine" "Yes."

Wang Can nodded with emotion.
The two talked for a while, and then Wang Can left.
Guan Wangru came in and reported: "Sir, all the preparations for Mr.
Lei's Full Moon Wine have been made.
The chef from Zuixian Tower is hired to cook.
The drinks and dishes are all arranged."
The materials have been ordered, such as If there is not enough, you can add more at any time, but the guests for the banquet have not been decided yet.
The madam’s family has almost no relatives, and the master’s relatives will not be able to come from his hometown for a while, so I need to entertain those guests, please give me the general’s instructions.”
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said to Wang Ru: "I will give you a guest list later, and you can just send invitations to everyone according to the list."
"promise" Zhao Ziliang quickly wrote a guest list to Wang Ru.
These guests were basically some of his colleagues during his tenure as Zuojian Gatekeeper and Zuojinwuwei.
In addition, there were also Princess Yuzhen, Yang Yuhuan and a few other people with slightly better relationships.
Friend, and he also had a good relationship with Li Bai, so he also sent invitations to Li Bai and several other talented people in Chang'an.
On the day when the full moon wine was served, the little guy Zhao Lei was very popular with the guests.
He was very tiger-headed, liked to move around, didn't like to be quiet, and grabbed whatever he saw.
Princess Yuzhen, Yang Yuhuan and others also gave him a small gift each, and Li Bai also wrote a poem specifically for him.
Zhao Ziliang held Zhao Lei and walked around among the guests, letting all the guests see him.
After seeing him, he held the child and prepared to return to the inner courtyard.
At this time, Yang Yuhuan followed and said: "General Zhao, come and see me."
Look at your ladyship."
Zhao Ziliang asked as he walked: "Why didn't His Highness Prince Mao come?"
Yang Yuhuan looked a little sad, "The slave family had a quarrel with him."
Zhao Ziliang hesitated and asked: "There are rumors from the outside world."
Zhao Ziliang didn't say the next words, but Yang Yuhuan said with a sad expression: "Is it rumored that the emperor fell in love with his daughter-in-law, and then his son did not dare to offend the emperor and pushed his daughter-in-law to the emperor?"
Zhao Ziliang was really embarrassed to say this so directly, but the matter was too complicated.
He didn't know the inside story and didn't want to get involved, so he could only stay silent.
Yang Yuhuan smiled bitterly and said: "Li Hao doesn't believe me at all.
He thinks that I am interested in the emperor.
He is the father-in-law of the slave family.
How could he have a big quarrel with me every time I come back from the palace?"
Zhao Ziliang asked: "Aren't you planning to go there?
Why haven't you set off yet?"
Yang Yuhuan shook his head and said: "I can't go.
A few months ago, Li Hao noticed that the emperor seemed to be interested in me, so he was very angry.
He rushed into the palace on impulse and had a big quarrel with his majesty.
His majesty retracted the decree in anger.
Li Hao's fiefdom was almost abolished as his title of King of Longevity.
Now the slave family is completely disappointed with Li Hao, and he will become a Taoist priest soon."
Zhao Ziliang was quite surprised, "You don't have to be like this.
Even so, you don't need to become a monk."
Yang Yuhuan sighed: "Otherwise, how can we avoid the emperor?"
"But even if you become a monk, if the emperor really wants to find you, he can still find you.
Can you still resist the decree?"
Yang Yuhuan obviously knew this, she just said: "Just take it one step at a time
