The aftermath of the treason case in which more than half of the Tang royal family was imprisoned and awaiting execution in the autumn has not completely subsided.
Many gentlemen, aristocratic families, celebrities, and retired officials and generals from all over the country have written to Zhao Ziliang, requesting that Zhao Ziliang be punished.
These royal families were given a lighter sentence.
In the words of these people, the royal family is the foundation of the Li Tang Dynasty.
If the law is strictly followed, the population of the royal family will be greatly reduced, the power will be weakened, the prestige of the royal family will be lost, and the Li Tang Dynasty will become unworthy of its name.
Moreover, the royal family are born nobles, how can the criminal law be applied to them?
Zhao Ziliang read through the petitions sent from all over the country.
He was so angry that he threw all the petitions on the ground and almost overturned the imperial court.
Li Mi stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down.
Being angry won't solve the problem.
Judging from the current situation, the situation should not be too bad.
At least we know that there are still many people in various places who are loyal to the royal family or dissatisfied with your Majesty.
Now these people are popping up one by one, which also lets us know about him Who are they?
It is convenient for us to control them and bring these people into our sights.
We will pay strict attention and focus on monitoring them in the future.
In addition, whether the sentences of the royal family members who committed the crime should be reduced or their execution should be postponed to ease the current situation of gentlemen, The mood of celebrities and retired officials and military generals” Zhao Ziliang narrowed his eyes, and there was a hint of coldness on his face, "Those low-level members of the Baohuang Society have basically executed their sentences.
Could it be that the imperial clan should treat them specially because of their status?
Shouldn't they have been ordered to be punished in the first place?"
and all the lower-level people We need to implement it together without waiting until the end of the autumn.
Otherwise, there are so many things that cannot be solved by compromise.
If this compromise is done alone, the people who wrote the petition will make every effort to push the envelope until the big things become small and the small things disappear.
Otherwise they will not give up.”
Having said this, Zhao Ziliang paused for a few seconds and then said: "This matter cannot be delayed any longer.
We must put those people's thoughts out of their minds and pass on the decree.
The criminal royal clan detained in the Jingzhao area will be executed tomorrow, and the decree will be sent to All localities should implement the decree immediately the next day after receiving it.
There is no need to wait for Du Zongwen to draft the decree immediately after the autumn."
"Promise" Du Zongwen agreed, immediately rolled out the special paper and started writing furiously.
At this time, Xuan Shiba walked in and clasped his fists at Zhao Ziliang to report: "Holy King, there is news from Xinjing.
For some reason, Guishuang Lord Zhao Ting submitted a letter to resign from all military and political positions, and returned to Xinjing from the Khazar Protectorate.
A memorial about this matter will be sent to Chang'an soon."
Zhao Ziliang frowned: "Zhao Ting resigned from all military and political positions and returned to Xinjing from the Khazar Protectorate.
Zhao Lei agreed."
Xuan Shiba said: "It should be agreed, otherwise Lord Guishuang would not be able to return to Xinjing without permission.
In a few days, the memorial on this matter should be sent to the Holy King soon.
Xichang has special speed to deliver news way, so I got the news a few days earlier and spread it here."
Zhao Ziliang was a little upset and asked: "Do you know what happened?
Zhao Ting will not resign from his official and military positions without any reason?"
Xuan Shiba cupped his fists and said: "I heard that in the Eastern Roman Empire, Empress Dowager Irina's vigorous reforms have touched the interests of military generals and many aristocrats, causing opposition to Irina in many places, and several outbreaks.
Rebellion, and now Irina is dispatching troops to quell the rebellion.
Guishan Lord Zhao Ting believes that now is the best time for the Western Qin to attack the Eastern Roman Empire, so He wrote to the royal court and suggested sending troops to attack the Anatolia region of the Eastern Roman Empire.
However, the king rejected Kushan Lord Zhao Ting's suggestion.
It was reported that some ministers in the royal court believed that the purpose of Kushan Lord's move was to support his troops and respect himself, because Now is not the best time to attack the Eastern Roman Empire.
Attacking the Eastern Roman Empire at this time will actually make them abandon their internal prejudices and unite with the outside world."
Zhao Ziliang has been in power for so many years.
Although he only heard a few words from Xuan Shiba, he still didn't understand the key.

He pondered for a moment and said to Li Muchen: "Since Zhao Ting is idle at home now, you can write for me Send a letter to Zhao Lei in Xinjing, asking Zhao Lei to tell Zhao Ting that he and his family should come to Chang'an to relax.
Yi Ning has not returned to Chang'an for a long time."
After hearing this, the ministers and officials understood that Zhao Ziliang wanted to call Zhao Ting's family to Chang'an to prevent the rift between the two brothers from getting bigger.
Li Muchen raised his hands and agreed: "I obey the order."
As the saying goes, every family has a difficult book to recite, even the nobles of Tianhuang are no exception.
There are a lot of housework and troubles.
Zhao Ziliang originally didn't want to care about the affairs of brothers Zhao Ting and Zhao Lei.
After all, he He has abdicated, but the Zhao family is the royal family of the Western Qin Dynasty.
Family affairs are state affairs.
The more fierce the quarrel within the family, the greater the impact on the entire country.
At this time Zheng San stood up and cupped his hands to Zhao Ziliang and said: "Holy King, Guo Ziyi came to Chang'an from his hometown a few days ago.
Yesterday he came to see you in person and asked for your help to tell the Holy King.
He said that he knew his fate soon.
I want to see the Holy King before I die."
Guo Ziyi is already over eighty this year.
In this era, he is definitely the oldest among the oldest.
But after all, he is getting older, and illnesses can come at any time.
In recent years, his health has been deteriorating.
Since then, he has been caught between Zhao Ziliang and Emperor Daizong.
In embarrassment, he had to resign and return to work.
He has not come back since then, and Zhao Ziliang seems to have forgotten him a long time ago.
After listening to Zheng San's report, Zhao Ziliang's mind wandered.
He sighed for a long time and said, "Bring him here tomorrow."
"promise" At that time, Zhao Ziliang only served in the imperial court for one martial arts examination.
During that martial arts examination, many famous generals appeared.
These famous generals either served for the imperial court or were the eagles and dogs of Anlu Mountain, but no matter which side they stood on, No one can deny their military talents.
Among this group of people, Zhao Ziliang admires Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi the most.
This is not because of Zhao Ziliang's preconceptions, but because these two people are indeed talented.
If we compare their achievements in pacifying the Anshi Rebellion, Guo Ziyi is slightly inferior, and Li Guangbi is The process of putting down the Anshi Rebellion The military talents and contributions he made were far superior to others.
Guo Ziyi's military talents were not low, but Guo Ziyi's political talents were higher than his military talents.
The other heroes and generals were all jealous of the emperor and fell.
But Guo Ziyi was able to turn danger into danger many times and regain military power.
Compared with his military ability, Li Guangbi's political talent was far inferior.
Guo Ziyi was able to deal with the frame-ups of powerful officials and eunuchs and the emperor's suspicion with ease, but Li Guangbi did not have this ability, so he died of depression.
A carriage stopped in front of the Prince Regent's Palace.
The coachman jumped down from the carriage and took out a small stool and placed it next to it.
He then raised the curtain and helped Guo Ziyi down from the carriage.
Guo Ziyi was already white-haired and withered.
He was gaunt and stooped.
He was originally tall but now he was as skinny as a stick.
He looked up at the gilded plaque of the Regent's Palace in front of the palace with a cane and felt very emotional.
He had not been here for more than ten years.
Zheng San walked out of the palace, cupped his hands to Guo Ziyi and said: "Your Majesty came on time.
The Holy King has already sent a message.
When your Majesty comes, you can go in to see him directly.

Come on, I will take you in."
Guo Ziyi picked up the crutches and raised her fists, her movements slow, "Thank you, Mr.
Zheng, for your mediation."
After saying that, Guo Ziyi said to the driver who was supporting him: "Why don't you thank Mr.
Zheng quickly?"
The driver, who was about forty years old, cupped his fists towards Zheng San and said, "Guo Xin pays homage to Mr.
Zheng."
Zheng San turned to look at the coachman, as if the name seemed familiar to him, pointed at him and thought for a moment, "You're not that one."
Guo Xin said: "Yes, Master Zheng has a very good memory.
I am Guo Xin who once served as the Protector of Anxi, but was dismissed for being willful and reckless.
Guo Xin feels ashamed of his cultivation of his uncle and the court.
Over the years, he has often thought of his past mistakes.
Can’t forgive myself” Zheng San seemed to understand Guo Ziyi's purpose of coming to Chang'an this time.
He nodded: "Okay, please come with me."
Guo Ziyi and Guo Xin met Zhao Ziliang in a pavilion in the palace.
Zhao Ziliang looked at Guo Ziyi, who was already hunched over, senile and struggling to walk, and felt infinite emotion in his heart.
No matter how heroic a person is, , no match for the ruthlessness of time.
"The student brought his nephew Guo Xin to pay homage to the Holy King."
Guo Ziyi dropped his crutches, lifted up the hem of his robe, and prepared to kneel down to Zhao Ziliang.
Zhao Ziliang sighed and said: "You are already 70 or 80 years old.
It is difficult to stand.
Why are you kneeling?
Come and show Guo Ziyi and Guo Xin their seats."
Someone next to him agreed, and Guo Ziyi immediately said: "Thank you, Holy King."
After the maid brought tea, Zhao Ziliang asked: "How long has it been since you came to Chang'an?"
Guo Ziyi said: "It has been thirteen years."
Zhao Ziliang took a sip of tea and asked, "Have you heard about the rebellion?"
"The students heard about it" "In the past few days, many memorials and petitions have been sent from all over the country, asking me to deal with those royal families who participated in the rebellion.
You are also here to plead for mercy."
Guo Ziyi sighed: "Students are buried up to their necks in the soil.
How can they still have the leisure to care about such things?
After many years, the Tang Dynasty has been prosperous under the governance of the Holy King.
The world is peaceful, the world is peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
The people are rich and the country is strong, which shows that the Holy King is right However, some students believe that in some aspects, it is actually a good thing for someone to oppose the Holy King.
Different voices can remind the Holy King, but if no one opposes it, it may not be a good thing in the long run.
The Holy King will treat those who participate in the conspiracy.
How to judge the rebellious royal family?
Students have no right to intervene and have no qualifications.
Over the years, students have figured out that if the Tang Dynasty is ruled by an incompetent person, only the common people will suffer.
This time I came to Chang'an mainly because of my nephew, Guo Xin He was a playboy at the time and didn't know the importance of it, but he still had talents, and he had learned from the pain over the years and had changed his ways.
The student came here this time with an old face, hoping that the Holy King would give him another chance so that he could show off his talents.
Director, serving the Holy King and the Tang Dynasty."
Zhao Ziliang looked at Guo Xin, and after a long cup of tea, he said: "Go to Jingzhao Garrison to be a captain first, and I will see how you perform after a year.
Gao Shang, please make arrangements."
"yes" "Thank you, Holy King" Three months later, in the winter of 781 AD, Guo Ziyi died
