Zhao Ziliang's arrival alarmed many people around Chang'an.
Nearly hundreds of thousands of people inside and outside Chang'an City came to see him.
There were even many people who came from surrounding states and counties.
After ten years, Chang'an City Many people inside and outside still remember him.
Zhao Ziliang saw the crowds on both sides of the road and said to Emperor Daizong: "Your Majesty, the court has organized so many people to welcome me.
I really can't bear it."
Daizong was helpless and said: "Uncle, these people are not organized by the imperial court, nor are they ordered by me.
They are spontaneous.
It can be seen that ten years after my uncle left Chang'an, the people of Chang'an still remember my uncle."
Zhao Ziliang sighed: "I am so ashamed.
I suffered several disasters in Chang'an, but I was unable to rescue them in time."
Daizong comforted him: "The matter has passed.
Uncle, there is no need to blame himself.
This is all my fault and has nothing to do with my uncle."
When the imperial driver arrived at Jinguang Gate, more people gathered at the city gate.
It was a sea of people.
The number of soldiers on guard also increased a lot.
Zhao Ziliang suddenly said: "Stop."
The charioteer didn't know what he meant, but he still pulled the reins, and the charioteer stopped.
Zhao Ziliang stood up and looked up at the tower of Jinguangmen with a solemn expression.
He involuntarily stepped off the charioteer.
The large army of soldiers and horses behind him and all the civil and military officials also stopped.
After coming down, the emperor, ministers, military generals, soldiers and tens of thousands of people around the city gate all watched Zhao Ziliang slowly walk down from the imperial chariot.
Under everyone's gaze, he walked to the city gate and stood there, looking up at the tower.
After a long time, he took off his helmet and put it under his arm.
He lifted up his shirt and slowly knelt down on his knees.
He put his helmet on the ground and prostrated himself.
He was kneeling down to worship Chang'an City.
The Tang Empire was once the most prosperous capital city in the world, and he was kneeling down to worship the center of the world.
He was grieving for the several disasters that Chang'an City had suffered.
Although there was no word, everyone understood his inner thoughts, which was a feeling that did not need to be expressed in words.
No one gave orders, and the officers and soldiers of the Western Qin Army knelt down voluntarily, allowing the capital of the Tang Empire to be looted and destroyed by the rebels.
This was their shame as soldiers, and they were repenting for their dereliction of duty.
They are saddened by this catastrophe in their homeland.
Emperor Daizong's face turned a little pale.
The behavior of Zhao Ziliang and the soldiers of the Western Qin Army made him feel that he, the emperor, had been too derelict in his duties and was too cowardly.
He felt guilty from the bottom of his heart.
After a long time, Zhao Ziliang stood up and slowly walked towards the city wall.
The city wall was stained with blood, and there were broken city bricks everywhere.
After so long, the strong smell of blood still remained.
Zhao Ziliang walked to the city wall and touched the gaps in the broken bricks and the dried blood stains, and shed silent tears.
"I couldn't help myself for a moment, and made Your Majesty laugh."
Zhao Ziliang returned to the imperial chariot and saluted Emperor Daizong with clasped fists.
Daizong said in embarrassment: "How can I laugh at my uncle and cause Chang'an City to suffer such a disaster?
It's all my fault.

Even if I have issued a sinful edict, I can't make up for the damage caused by the rebels to Chang'an City."
Forget it, let’s go back to the palace first and then talk about it.
I’m afraid the Western Qin army brought by my uncle will camp outside the city.”
"Of course, I will only bring the guards into the city, and the army will stay and camp outside the city.
I wonder if the court has arranged a camp."
Daizong said: "It has been arranged.
My uncle will order his generals to contact Guo Ziyi about this matter."
"Okay" Zhao Ziliang agreed and immediately found Chen Qing and asked him to discuss the garrisoning of the army with Guo Ziyi.
After entering the city, Emperor Daizong Li Yu said to Zhao Ziliang: "Uncle, I have asked people to clean up the house where Li Linfu used to live.
I will reward this house to my uncle and keep it as his residence in the capital."
Zhao Ziliang clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
In the afternoon, Emperor Daizong held a banquet in the Daming Palace, where he hosted Zhao Ziliang and the generals and officials of the Western Qin Army.
Prince Li Shi, Yuan Zai, Wang Jin, Pei Zunqing, Du Hongjian and other prime ministers of the court accompanied him, as well as the imperial army.
Fang generals Guo Ziyi, Wang Sili, Li Baozhen, Tian Shengong, Hun Yao, Wu Couo, Wei Boyu and others.
Zhao Ziliang basically knew all the people accompanying him.
Only Li Baozhen, Tian Shengong, Hun Yao, Wu Min and others did not.
"Li Baozhen, the last general, pays homage to the King of Western Qin."
A veteran general in his sixties stood up and introduced himself.
Zhao Ziliang did not know him, so Guo Ziyi introduced him: "General Li's surname is An, and his name is An Chongzhang.
He has lived in Xizhou for a long time.
His father An Zhongjing once served as the deputy ambassador of Hexi Jiedu.
When the Anshi Rebellion broke out, he was given his surname by the late emperor.
Li, changed his name to Baoyu.
During the Hedong rebellion, General Li was appointed as a partial general by Li Guangbi.
He made outstanding achievements in fighting against the Anshi rebels.
He is currently the governor of Fengxiang and Sikong.
This Li Baoyu can be regarded as a late bloomer.
He is seven years younger than Guo Ziyi, and his current official rank is only slightly lower than Guo Ziyi.
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said to Li Baoyu: "General Li, there is no need to be polite."
After finishing speaking, Zhao Ziliang saw a general in his thirties standing behind Li Baoyu.
This man had a dignified appearance, a calm expression, and was quite intelligent, so he asked, "Who is this man?"
This person did not wait for others to introduce him, stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Back to the King of Western Qin, I will appoint Li Baozhen as a young eunuch in the palace."
Li Baoyu introduced: "This is the son of the general's father, brother and uncle."
"The right servant of the Inspector of Schools, She Tian Sheng Gong, pays homage to the King of Western Qin."
A general in his forties stood up and saluted Zhao Ziliang.
Emperor Daizong Li Yu introduced with a smile: "General Tian was originally the military envoy of Pinglu.
After the rebellion of An Lushan, he did not want to become a thief, so he led his army back to the court and made great achievements in fighting against the Anshi rebels.
A few years ago, Songzhou governor Liu Zhan rebelled, and it was General Tian who led his army to put down Liu Zhan's rebellion."
Xuan Shiba whispered in Zhao Ziliang's ear: "To put down Liu Zhan's rebellion, Tian Shengong did not restrain the soldiers, allowed the soldiers to plunder the people's property, killed thousands of Persian merchants, and caused serious damage to the prosperous Jianghuai River."
After hearing this, Zhao Ziliang knew in his mind that Tian Shengong had military talents and was very brave, but like Guo Ziyi, he did not like to use strict military laws to govern the army, and used loose military discipline and heavy rewards to win the support of the sergeants.
"It turns out to be General Tian.
I have heard a little about General Tian's deeds.
Please sit down."
Zhao Ziliang smiled and said to Tian Shengong.
He had received relevant reports before.

Tian Shengong's troops were under the control of Li Guangbi in the late Anshi Rebellion, but Tian Shengong this Personally, he was not very obedient to orders.
Li Guangbi could not command him.
Not only did Tian Shengong support his own troops, but there were also many troops and horses that were nominally under Li Guangbi's control.
However, these people did not obey Li Guangbi's orders.
This was also the reason why Li Guangbi died in depression. a factor.
"The last general, Shence Army's deputy envoy Hun Yao from the left wing of the army, pays homage to the King of Western Qin."
A general stood up and saluted Zhao Ziliang with clasped fists.
Guo Ziyi introduced to Zhao Ziliang: "General Hun is a member of the Tielehun tribe.
His father once served as Jieduliu of Shuofang.
During the Anshi Rebellion, he served as my general.
In pacifying the Pugu Huai'en rebellion and the later stages of the Anshi Rebellion, General Hun's military exploits Outstanding, quite courageous, modest and prudent by nature, never taking credit or being arrogant.”
Emperor Daizong Li Yu smiled and said: "Yes, I can testify to this."
Zhao Ziliang also smiled and said, "It seems that there are all talented people here today.
Among the Tiele tribe, there are many people who are officials and generals in the court, and there are also a few who are officials and generals in the Western Qin Dynasty.
Among them, they are famous all over the world."
There are many people who are like servants, and the court has cultivated him so much.
At the beginning, this king He also had high expectations for him, but who knew that he actually rebelled against General Hun, but you can't imitate him.
Although most of the rebels in recent years were Fan generals, the imperial court did not completely deny Fan generals.
There are many loyal and brave generals, and I hope that you are also such a person."
"Keep this in mind, general," Hun Yao said and stepped aside.
Another general in his fifties stood up.
This man looked arrogant and said, "Wu Cao has met the King of Western Qin."
When Emperor Daizong Li Yu saw this, he quickly introduced him with a smile: "This is General Wu Zuo of Zuojin Wuwei."
Xuan Shiba whispered in Zhao Ziliang's ear: "Wu Minu is the emperor's biological uncle, and the emperor's biological mother, Empress Zhang Jing, is his biological sister."
The life of Emperor Daizong Li Yu was actually very difficult.
When he was four years old, his mother Wu died of illness.
Thanks to his uncle Wu Min's care and support, he was able to grow up.
His mother Wu's Queen Zhangjing was still named after him.
Those who seek respect after taking the throne.
Zhao Ziliang smiled and said: "It turns out that General Wu is your Majesty's uncle.
I am honored to meet you here.
All the generals have outstanding military achievements.
I don't know what military achievements General Wu has.
He can hold a high position in the temple and is also the general of Zuojin Wuwei."
Wu Minao has no military exploits.
He can sit here and hold the position of General Zuojinwuwei.
Of course, it is only because he is the emperor's uncle.
Otherwise, he would not be able to hold the position of General Zuojinwuwei anyway.
He will do it.
Wu Minao was exposed by Zhao Ziliang, and his face suddenly turned red, but he had no way to refute.
He sat there for a while and really didn't know how to answer.
However, Guo Ziyi quickly smoothed things over and said with a smile: "The King of Western Qin didn't know something.
Of course General Wu has merit.
His Majesty has been in danger several times, and General Wu has always been with him to protect him.
Since ancient times, there is no greater contribution than protecting him, so let's really talk about it.

Get up, General Wu has made more contributions than all of us."
These words were of course meant to save Wu Min's face.
In fact, Wu Min really had no role in protecting him.
He was just following Daizong all the time.
Wherever Daizong was, he was there.
"It turns out that General Wu is a minister who has made meritorious service in escorting the emperor, but I have underestimated General Wu."
In addition to these higher-ranking court ministers and military generals, there were also many civilian and military generals present, but Zhao Ziliang basically didn't recognize them.
The older generation of court ministers and generals were either old or dead, or Having been deposed, exiled or demoted, most of the people in the court today are new faces to Zhao Ziliang.
This makes Zhao Ziliang have to realize from the bottom of his heart that things are really different and people are different.
