After a while, Xia Guangyao, Chang Shi, Sima and others all came over and saluted Zhao Ziliang.
Zhao Ziliang waved his hand and said: "I called you here just to say something about the Fourth Datong Army that just arrived ten miles north of Shuozhou City.
It’s about the battalion, they are my general The Shuozhou County soldiers who were ordered to be transferred have died and have become Wang Shengdao's private soldiers.
This situation must not continue.
Any army is the army of the Tang Dynasty and the emperor's army, not other private individuals.
The general originally wanted to reorganize the county soldiers Yes, but the county soldiers are firmly in the hands of Wang Shengdao.
The general is worried that he will not obey the reorganization and cause something to happen.
If there is a camp bombing or mutiny during the reorganization, it can be done if the Fourth Battalion of the Datong Army is nearby.
Immediate suppression will not spread the chaos.
Big, so regarding the arrival of the Fourth Battalion of the Datong Army, I hope you don’t panic.
But I didn’t expect that Wang Shengdao was assassinated now.
It seems that the Fourth Battalion of the Datong Army no longer needs to stay outside Shuozhou City.
My general will tomorrow I ordered them to return to their base.”
Cui Jinrong originally had some doubts about whether the assassination of Wang Shengdao was secretly arranged by Zhao Ziliang.
Not only did he doubt it, but also several other major officials.
After all, this matter was a coincidence, and it was normal for them to doubt it.
However, after hearing Zhao Ziliang's words After these words, most of their suspicions were gone.
Cui Jinrong saw that Zhao Ziliang wanted to transfer the Fourth Battalion of the Datong Army back again, and said quickly: "Wait, wait, general, in the opinion of the lower officials, it is better to wait for the rectification of the county soldiers to be on the right track before sending the Fourth Battalion of the Datong Army back."
Transfer them back.
Several of the county soldiers are kings.
Shengdao's confidants are also members of the Wang family.
No one can guarantee whether they will instruct the soldiers to do evil during the reorganization.
If the county soldiers are instigated by them to riot, the fourth battalion of the Datong Army will also If we weren’t here, wouldn’t it be the people of Shuozhou who would suffer?”
"This" Zhao Ziliang hesitated.
When other officials saw it, they all tried to persuade them: "Yes, General, we will wait until the county soldiers are reorganized and on the right track before transferring the Fourth Battalion of the Datong Army over.
As for the Fourth Battalion's eating, drinking, and diarrhea here during this period, We, Shuozhou Prefecture, are responsible for supplying everything."
Prefect Cui Jinrong also quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, I, Shuozhou Mansion, will be responsible for the supply of the Fourth Battalion during this period."
"Well, since you have requested it, I, the general, will let the fourth battalion stay temporarily."
After Zhao Ziliang said that, he got on the horse and left as Cui Jinrong and others respectfully saw him off.
At dusk, Cui Jinrong brought a group of officials to Zhao Ziliang's residence to report the case.
Zhao Ziliang met them in the hall.
As soon as everyone sat down, Cui Jinrong was about to stand up and report.
At this time, a subordinate walked in from the door and cupped his fists and said: "General Qi.
A dozen people came outside the door.
The leader of the group handed over his name and asked to see the general.
He said that he was Wang Zhaolun, the governor of Beidu and the marching commander of Hedong Jiedushi."
Zhao Ziliang knew that the northern capital mentioned by his subordinates referred to Taiyuan Prefecture.
The Tang Dynasty not only had the eastern capital Luoyang and the western capital Chang'an, but also the northern capital Taiyuan, because Taiyuan was the home of Long Xing, the founder of Li Tang.
In the Sui Dynasty, Taiyuan County was established, and in the early Tang Dynasty, it was called Bingzhou.
It was first established as the General Manager's Office, and then changed to the Grand Governor's Office.
In the first year of Empress Wu's longevity, the Northern Capital was established, and it was renamed Bingzhou after the restoration.
In the eleventh year of Kaiyuan, the northern capital was established and the state was merged into Taiyuan Prefecture.
Zhao Ziliang took the famous assassination, looked at it, frowned and said: "Wang Zhaolun" "Yes, General" Zhao Ziliang remembered that there seemed to be an official named Wang Zhaolun among the officials he saw when he went to Taiyuan Mansion to meet Tian Renwan.
However, there were too many officials in Taiyuan at that time, so he did not pay much attention to Wang Zhaolun, so he asked the Shuozhou officials present: "This Wang Zhaolun What is the relationship with Wang Shengdao?"
Cui Jinrong stood up and saluted: "General, Wang Shengdao is Wang Zhaolun's nephew and stepson.

Since Wang Zhaolun had no son, Wang Shengdao's biological father adopted him to Wang Zhaolun.
Wang Zhaolun is the former Datong Army Jiedu Ambassador."
"Oh."
Zhao Ziliang was a little surprised, thinking that Wang Zhaolun was quite capable.
Although the Datong Army Jiedushi Ambassador seemed to be in charge of both the army and the people, in fact his focus was still on the army, and the management of the government affairs of the three states was still left to the prefects of each state.
Therefore, the Datong Army Jiedu Ambassador was actually a military general.
However, Wang Zhaolun transformed from a general in the army to the prefect of Taiyuan Prefecture, and concurrently He was appointed as the Marching Sima of the Hedong Army.
Taiyuan Prefecture was the northern capital.
This prefect was one level higher than the average prefect.
Not only did he have a strong say in the officialdom of Hedong, but he also served as the Marching Sima in the military.
It can be said that Wang Zhaolun's rank is not lower than that of Zhao Ziliang.
It is no wonder that the Taiyuan Wang family is mentioned.
Except for the members of the Li and Tang royal families, Taiyuan has become the headquarters of the Taiyuan Wang family.
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said to the retinue: "Go and ask Mr.
Wang to come in."
"promise" Soon, a lanky man in his fifties walked in.
This man had a long beard and a strong body.
He was worthy of being a military general.
Zhao Ziliang stood up and walked down the steps.
Wang Zhaolun, who was coming from the opposite side, had already cupped his hands and said, "I heard that my son was being assassinated.
I was so anxious that I rushed over to ask for an audience.
It was very abrupt.
I didn't inform the general in advance.
Please don't blame the general."
Zhao Ziliang bowed his hands and returned the greeting: "I understand the pain of losing your son, Mr.
Wang.
People can't be resurrected after death.
Please forgive me, Mr.
Wang."
Wang Zhaolun looked sad and confused, but he did not forget the basic etiquette.
It can be seen that this big family is different from ordinary small families.
He quickly handed over his hands and said: "Thank you, thank you very much for coming to Shuozhou this time.
I want to see the child's body and take it back to Taiyuan for burial.
In addition, the general is not only the military envoy of the left wing, but also the ambassador of the Datong Army.
Secondly, I want General Zhao to bring justice to the child and catch the murderer as soon as possible for me.
A son pays for his life" Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "I understand, I understand that when Mr.
Wang came here, he must have seen that various checkpoints, inns, and checkpoints were under martial law to check people leaving the country.
I hope this can temporarily stop the assassins in Shuozhou.
In addition, this general has already The Shuozhou Prefecture has been instructed to investigate the case strictly.
The main officials of the Shuozhou Prefecture are now here.
The prefect Cui is also about to report to this general the analysis of the assassination of General Wang Shengdao.
Mr.
Wang can listen on the side.
Who is coming?
, prepare a seat for Mr.

Wang."
Someone immediately agreed and went to carry the chair.
Wang Zhaolun quickly cupped his hands to Zhao Ziliang and said, "Thank you, General Zhao."
Zhao Ziliang nodded to Cui Jinrong.
Cui Jinrong immediately stood up and saluted Zhao Ziliang, Wang Zhaolun and Zhao Ziliang's accompanying officers and generals, and said: "General, gentlemen, during the day today, Shuozhou Prefecture has sent officials to conduct a detailed survey and inspection of the scene.
After searching, some conclusions have been drawn.
First, the murder weapon used by the assassin.
It was a bow and arrow.
The arrow was left in the neck of the corpse.
One arrow penetrated the throat.
The arrow shaft was 70% long and penetrated the neck.
It can be seen that the crossbow used was extremely powerful.
The arrow was removed by the man.
We found that the arrow was They come from the military, which means that the assassins use military-standard arrows.
The arrows are engraved with the name of the person who made them.
This kind of arrow is too special.
Made by the original government and specially distributed to the soldiers of our state.
Based on the location where General Wang was hit by an arrow and fell from his horse, the direction he was facing at the time, and the direction in which the arrow penetrated the body's neck, we can infer the approximate location of the assassin at that time. , and soon found some traces left by the assassin at the scene, but this assassin was extremely cunning and cautious.
He should have been extremely calm when he assassinated, and he killed like crazy.
He erased all the traces that could prove his identity.
We can only see that someone was at that position.
Since no one has seen the assassin, we cannot be sure of the assassin.
His appearance, whether he is a boy or a girl, etc.
Now I only know that the arrows used by the assassins come from among the county soldiers."
"County soldier" Wang Zhaolun was furious.
He immediately stood up and said loudly with red eyes: "Then check the county soldier, check it immediately."
The two county military captains immediately stood up and agreed loudly with their hands raised: "Yes, sir."
After saying that, they turned around and walked out.
Everyone present was stunned.
Everyone knew that Zhao Ziliang was in charge here, not Wang Zhaolun.
Now Wang Zhaolun actually announced his troops to seize the throne, and two county military school captains took over the order on the spot.
This made Zhao Ziliang feel embarrassed.
Sure enough, Zhao Ziliang was worried that he could not find an excuse to eradicate Wang Shengdao's cronies who had stayed in the county soldiers.
He got angry on the spot and slammed the table violently: "How presumptuous, this is Shuozhou, not the Shuozhou County soldiers of Taiyuan Prefecture who are directly affected by it."
The Datong Army is under the jurisdiction of the Jiedu Ambassador's Office.
There is no general order from this general.
Whose order do you have to come and capture these two men?
Drag them out and beat them with forty military sticks each as a warning to others."
Four strong subordinates next to "Nuo" rushed out, each holding a county military school captain in pairs and dragged them outside.
At this time, Wang Zhaolun also realized that he had made a big mistake, his face changed several times, and he still handed over his hands to Zhao Ziliang and begged: "General Zhao, please calm down.
I am a half-officer who lost his son and lost his composure.
I have lost my temper for a while.
Please forgive me, General."
Don’t argue with them” Zhao Ziliang had known for a long time that these two county military captains were Wang Shengdao's cronies among the county soldiers.
They were both members of the Wang family.

It was time to remove them.
How could he give up so easily?
He shook his head and said, "Master Wang, this is the time."
The difference in words is not because I, the general, do not want to give Mr.
Wang this face.
He is also a person who has led soldiers.
He should know what is most taboo in the army.
I think you know it without me having to say more."
After speaking, he shouted to the four subordinates: "Drag them out."
Wang Zhaolun's face changed again, and he finally endured without saying anything.
He saw Zhao Ziliang's firm look.
When it came to military power, Zhao Ziliang's resolute attitude made him extinguish his desire to plead for mercy.
Soon, the dull sound of sticks hitting the body was heard outside, followed by the screams of two people crying for their father and mother.
Wang Zhaolun's face looked very ugly, but he was powerless at this time
