Gao Lishi glanced at the officials and generals present at the Marshal's Mansion, and said with a smile: "The first thing to do is the marriage between Young Master Ting and Princess Yining.
They have been engaged for two years, but they have not been able to get married due to various reasons. , Princess Yining is getting older and cannot wait any longer, so His Majesty sent our family to discuss their wedding date with the Marshal."
Zhao Ziliang looked at Zhao Ting after hearing this and asked: "You are the party involved, what do you think?"
Zhao Ting was stunned, and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Let my father make the decision in everything."
Zhao Ziliang said to Gao Lishi: "Zhao has no idea here.
The wedding date can be set at any time.
Let His Majesty decide."
Gao Lishi said: "When our family came, His Majesty said that if Zhao Ziliang had nothing special to do, he would set the wedding date on the eighteenth day of the next month.
That day is an auspicious day and is suitable for marriage.
The commander-in-chief decided to set the date on this day. ,how" "Next month is the eighteenth.
It's a good day.
Now we have captured Luoyang and collected more than 300,000 rebel troops.
We need to digest it for the time being and cannot continue to launch large-scale battles against the rebels.
Therefore, before May, this It’s been a relatively stable period of time.
Since His Majesty has set the wedding date on this day, then that’s it.”
Gao Lishi smiled and said to Zhao Ziliang and Zhao Ting: "In that case, our family will congratulate you here first."
The officials and generals of the Marshal's Mansion also smiled and congratulated Zhao Ziliang and Zhao Ting.
Everyone congratulated, and Zhao Ziliang continued to ask Gao Lishi: "I don't know what the second thing is."
Gao Lishi smiled and said: "Your Majesty also has a princess, who was canonized as Princess Xinping.
She married Pei Yin ten years ago.
However, Pei Yin had weak bones since childhood and died of illness within two years of marriage.
Princess Xinping was a strong-willed and loyal woman.
This woman has not remarried in eight years, which is completely different from other princesses and princesses in the royal family.
His Majesty loves Princess Xinping very much and has always been extremely worried about her marriage. , but Princess Xinping has never found the person she likes, so she has always refused to marry again.
This time, His Majesty heard that Princess Xinping has been paying close attention to the heroic deeds of the commander-in-chief, so he asked her and learned that if it was the commander-in-chief, she would be willing to remarry. , so Your Majesty wants to marry Princess Xinping to the Marshal, and the Marshal is a model of heroes in the world.
You two are a good match."
When Zhao Ziliang heard this, he immediately couldn't laugh or cry, "Eunuch Gao, why did your Majesty suddenly remember that he wanted to betroth Princess Xinping to Zhao?
How can Zhao be so virtuous?
Zhao already has three wives, and he is too busy no matter how many more he has."
The officials and generals sitting on both sides burst into laughter after hearing this.
Gao Lishi smiled and said: "What the Marshal said is wrong.
Who among men would think that having too many wives and concubines would be the envy of many people?
Furthermore, Princess Xinping has always admired the Marshal, and you two happen to be If you are a good match for the commander-in-chief, don’t find any other excuses to refuse.
Just say whether you are willing or not.”
"This" Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but touched his forehead, feeling quite troubled by this matter, and said: "Eunuch Gao, this is not a question of whether you are willing or not.
You see, I am busy with military affairs all day long.
Even if I marry Princess Xinping into my family, , how can I have time to accompany her?"
Gao Lishi said: "Commander, there is always time to squeeze in.
Princess Xinping is not a weak woman who can't help but be frail.
In recent years, she has not only read and written at home, but also wielded swords and guns.
Her body is still very strong.
After marrying into the Marshal's house, she can serve him with the army.
Wouldn't this be more important?
Well, there is another most important point.
Although your Majesty doesn’t say it, our family understands what your Majesty means.

The commander-in-chief now controls the world’s troops and has overwhelming power.
Your Majesty’s desire to kiss you must be more than enough.
If we talk more, the commander-in-chief should understand, commander-in-chief, you have to reassure His Majesty."
After hearing what Gao Lishi said, the officials and generals of the Marshal's Mansion all said in their hearts, isn't this him forced to marry?
Zhao Ziliang knew that after Gao Lishi's words, the marriage was already a certainty.
Even if he didn't want to, he would have to marry Princess Xinping, otherwise he would have to relinquish military power again, but this time I'm afraid he didn't take the initiative to relinquish military power.
That's fine, ignoring the overall situation for a personal matter is not something a mature man can do.
Zhao Ziliang could only sigh: "Well, since His Majesty sent Eunuch Gao to come and talk about this matter in person, and Princess Xinping is interested in talking to me, what reason can I, Zhao, have to refuse?
As for the specific date?"
Gao Lishi said: "From our family's point of view, it is better to have double happiness.
How about setting the date for the eighteenth day of next month and having two weddings at the same time, which is both trouble-free and lively?"
Everyone was dumbfounded, and Zhao Ziliang was also dumbfounded.
He waved his hands quickly and said: "No, no, this is too ridiculous.
I have only heard of brothers getting married together, but never of father and son getting married together.
If this matter were told, wouldn't it make people angry?
Laughing your ass off” Some of the generals saw that Zhao Ziliang had agreed, but did not agree to get married with his son on the same day, so he joked: "Commander, how can this make people laugh out loud?
This is a great event.
How many people want to do this?"
Without this opportunity, I will see if this is feasible, and maybe there will be a good story in the future."
Other officials and generals also shouted, "It's absolutely true, Commander, that's it."
Someone else said: "Commander, when you married Mrs.
Meng, we couldn't even have a sip of water and wine.
Now that we have this opportunity, we can't let it go no matter what."
Gao Lishi smiled and said: "Commander, you see the generals are very happy, you can't deny everyone's good intentions, right?"
Zhao Ziliang patted his forehead and said, "Forget it, in that case, let's make it the same day."
The next day, Zhao Ziliang sent Gao Lishi away and called Du Fu and said, "Zimei, I will be inspecting the cities around Luoyang these days to check the progress of our army's recovery of the surrounding cities, so I would like to ask you to organize the wedding.
What do you think of the preparations?”
Du Fu clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Commander, your subordinates have taken care of everything."
Zhao Ziliang thought of Li Bai again and asked, "How is Li Bai doing as a groom lately?"
Du Fu said with a smile: "The commander's move is quite good.
Now Li Jushi has completely let go of his arrogance and has done an excellent job as a groom."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "Well, since he is already a qualified horseman, let him be a horse herder.
If he, as a horse herder, can raise all the military horses to be fat and keep the horse farm in order, then he will be a horse herder."
Give him another promotion."
Du Fu cupped his hands and said: "The lower official will convey the commander's words to Li Jushi."
Since the rebel generals An Taiqing, Tian Qianzhen and Niu Tingjie were killed by Yin Ziqi, and Yin Ziqi's 300,000 troops were forced to surrender by Zhao Ziliang, and the rebels Li Huaixian and Xie Yuanping fled one after another, the rebels' power in Henan Basically fell apart, even though the cities were still in the hands of the rebels , but the number of rebels in these cities ranged from two to three thousand to several hundred.
Once the Tang army's troops arrived, these rebels knew they were no opponents and could not hold on, so they immediately opened the city gates and surrendered.
Within days, most of the land in Henan occupied by the rebels was regained by the Tang army again.
On February 28, Zhao Ziliang returned to Luoyang after inspecting various places in Henan.
Wang Can came to report: "Commander, the latest battle report is that under the attack of Li Siye's army, Xie Yuantong led his troops to withdraw eastward to Suiyang, but was subsequently defeated by Li Siye and Lai Yi, King Wu Li Zhuan and others led their troops to besiege Suiyang City.
Xie Yuantong led his troops to break out of the siege and fled north with only a few hundred horsemen.
He was killed by his generals on the way.
The generals killed Xie Yuantong and then surrendered to our army with his head.
Now, Xie Yuantong’s head is being sent to Luoyang.”
Zhao Ziliang said with great joy: "Okay, after excluding Xie Yuan's troops, only Li Huaixian is left in Henan.

What is the situation of Li Huaixian's tribe now?"
"Chu Ge's army pressed on the territory, and Li Huaixian could not resist it.
He abandoned Xingyang and retreated to Bianzhou.
Now Li Huaixian is preparing to retreat to Hebei and join An Qingxu."
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and ordered: "Instruct Li Siye, Lai Ai and Wu King Li Zhu to lead their troops to advance northward to the south bank of the Yellow River.
Order Chu Ge to continue to approach Bianzhou.
If there is an opportunity, Li Huaixian will be left in Bianzhou.
Like Li Huaixian He led his troops to withdraw to Hebei and occupied Bianzhou.
While reorganizing the surrender troops, he made preparations to cross the river."
"promise" After the Tang army regained the land in Henan, they began to reorganize the surrendered troops and dispatch officials to various places to lead the people to reclaim the abandoned land for farming and restore production and economy.
After several years of war, the people's livelihood in Henan, Hebei, Hedong, and Guanzhong were in decline, and the land was in ruins.
Desolation, depopulation, and the economy almost came to a standstill.
When Zhao Ziliang visited various places in Henan during this period, he found that there were ruins everywhere, and often no one could be seen within a radius of dozens of miles.
Villages had long been abandoned, with collapsed houses and weeds as tall as a person growing in the fields.
Even if Wild dogs are often not seen.
Sending officials to local areas and resuming production are the top priorities at the moment.
Otherwise, if this continues, the food, grass and military pay that can be supplied to various places will only become less and less, and the army will also become less and less.
The rebels are getting weaker and weaker, and it will be a matter of time to wipe out the rebels.
Zhao Ziliang is not worried at all.
What he is worried about is that in Jiangnan and other places that have not experienced war, the situation of land annexation is getting more and more serious, and more and more people are The people can no longer survive in their original place of residence , they can only take their families and mouths out to beg for food and become refugees, and the court has not made relevant countermeasures in this regard.
If this situation continues for a long time, even if the Anshi Rebellion is quelled, rebellions will occur one after another in various places, and the people will not be able to survive. , will definitely not wait to starve to death.
Regarding this issue, Zhao Ziliang decided to write to the court, suggesting that the court should find ways to issue some measures and decrees to curb the current situation of land annexation, and then find other ways to alleviate this social conflict.
However, the result of the letter was nothing, and I am afraid that the emperor has no good solution.
