Zuo Jin Wu Wei Yamen in the west of the imperial city, after all, it is in charge of the two counties of the capital Chang'an and one of the security patrol matters inside and outside the palace, covering an area of not small, around the Zuo Jin Wu Wei Yamen is located many imperial departments.

On this day, Zhao Ziliang took Bai Xiaode and some other servants to Zuo Jin Wuwei Yamen to take office, the Yamen had already gotten Zhao Ziliang to come to take office today, so he sent someone to wait at the door, the original general Rock is a veteran, he is sixty this year, the emperor saw that he was old, so he let him return to the field, go home to retire, and also gave thousands of acres of fertile land, tens of thousands of dollars. At this time, Rock is waiting to make a settlement with the incoming Zhao Ziliang.

Zhao Ziliang saw a veteran waiting at the door with a lot of people, and knew that this veteran was only afraid of rocks, so he hurriedly gave his hand: "General Lao Yan has been here for a long time, forgive your sins!" ”

Rock has white hair and white beard, and his body is a little thin, but his skeleton is large, and it is conceivable that he should also be a fierce general with great strength when he is young.

"Hahaha, it's okay, General Zhao is young and promising, and he has a bright future, he is the pillar of the court in the future, and the old man should wait here! Come, the old man will introduce General Zhao to the generals and officials under the right guard, this is ・・・・・・".

The generals and officials who were introduced by the rock stepped forward one by one to clasp their fists and salute Zhao Ziliang, and Zhao Ziliang also returned the salute one by one.

The establishment under the jurisdiction of the Zuo Jin Wuwei and the Zuo Jian Guards is basically the same, under the general, there are the Left Guard General and the Right Guard General, the Left Guard General is generally responsible for the west side of the palace city and the imperial city, and the Right Guard General is in charge of Chang'an County, Zhao Ziliang is the Zuo Jin Wuwei Right Guard General, and the generals and officials introduced by the rock just now will be his subordinates. Similarly, the Right Jin Wuwei is basically the same, but the area of jurisdiction is different, and the Left Guard General of the Right Jin Wuwei is in charge of the east side of the palace and the imperial city. And the right guard general is in charge of Wannian County.

The news of Zhao Ziliang's transfer to the general of the left Jin Wuwei and the right guard quickly spread all over the streets and alleys of Chang'an City like wings, especially the people of Chang'an County rushed to tell each other, and the people had high expectations for Zhao Ziliang, hoping that after he took office as the general of the left Jin Wuwei and the right guard, he would be able to punish those nobles, gentlemen, and second ancestors, so that the people could live a stable life for a period of time.

Chang'an County is the most densely populated and commercially prosperous place in Chang'an City. The world-famous West City of Chang'an is located in Chang'an County, and there are a large number of people from other places who come here to do business in the West City, and Zhao Ziliang, who is responsible for the security of the streets and alleys of Chang'an County, is not only responsible for great responsibility, but also has great authority.

Zhao Ziliang first went to visit Ma Zhenyuan, the general of Zuo Jin Wuwei, Ma Zhenyuan was nearly sixty years old, and at the age of 20, he inherited his father's business as a lieutenant in Zuo Jin Wuwei, and it took nearly 40 years to get to the position of general. Hundreds of steps through Yang, admired him very much, he entered the emperor's sight, and since then his official fortune has been prosperous.

"Ziliang meets the general!"

Seeing Zhao Ziliang, who was powerful in the Western Regions and famous for his harshness in Chang'an City, fell down in front of him, Ma Zhenyuan was very happy and laughed: "Haha, General Zhao is here." No courtesy, no courtesy! Come, let's sit down and talk! ”

Ma Zhenyuan is also an old Chang'an person. Well-connected and well-informed, he has long heard of Zhao Ziliang, and he has seen him in the court several times, knowing that he is favored by the emperor, so he doesn't put on a show.

"Thank you, General!" Zhao Ziliang sat down after a soldier moved the wooden pier.

Ma Zhenyuan began to talk to Zhao Ziliang and asked Zhao Ziliang what he had seen and heard in the Western Regions. After exchanging with the process and details of the battle with the Tuqi Shi people, Ma Zhenyuan was very emotional, and said to Zhao Ziliang: "Ziliang, the old man envy you very much!" ”

Zhao Ziliang was surprised: "How can the general say this?" ”

Ma Zhenyuan and Zhao Ziliang crossed their fingers and calculated: "You see that you have been running all over Anxi at a young age. He also sent envoys to the nine countries of Zhaowu and was well-informed. Not only that, but you have also fought several battles with the barbarians of the Western Regions, killed countless enemies, and returned home with a great victory! Look at the old man again, the old man has been nested in this Chang'an City all his life, he has never walked out of the pass in his life, as a soldier and a general, he has never killed an enemy, nor has he commanded the army to fight a battle, this is sad, the old man is like a complete pitiful worm, this is the biggest regret in the old man's life! ”

Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "The general doesn't have to mind, if the general really wants to make up for this regret, there is a way, the general can ask His Majesty to let you go to the border to take up your post, if you have the opportunity to show your strength!" ”

Ma Zhenyuan shook his head regretfully and smiled: "Old minions, old men, you can't fight even if you want to, how can you be like you young people?" The old man just sighed. You are a general who has fought a big battle and killed countless enemies, and you are young, and the old man is in this Chang'an City all his life, and the courage is small here, you are young and full of energy, you are not afraid of offending the powerful, but the old man is afraid to die, and there are dozens of people in the old man's family who live on the old man's meager income, and ask General Zhao to act a little after taking office, and think more about the old man and his subordinate colleagues, the old man has no backer behind him, and he can't afford to offend those powerful people! ”

It was only at this time that Zhao Ziliang finally understood the purpose of Ma Zhenyuan's words to him, which meant to tell him to stop and not make trouble for him, the capital is full of dignitaries and dignitaries, and everyone has a deep background, if Zhao Ziliang causes trouble, he, the general of Zuojin Wuwei, will have to take responsibility, and he will have to wipe his ass for him, if he is just a fictitious general, it will be fine, but he is a general with real power, if Zhao Ziliang causes trouble, others will not look for Zhao Ziliang, but will only vent his anger on the head of his general.

Zhao Ziliang sighed in his conscience, before he began to officially take office, his boss sounded the alarm bell for him, telling him to stop after taking office and not cause trouble, which is really heartwarming.

Zhao Ziliang pondered for a moment and arched his hand: "General, it's not that Zhao is uninteresting, it's not that Zhao wants to deliberately cause trouble for the general, His Majesty said something when he appointed him as the general of Zuo Jin Wuwei and Right Guard, although His Majesty didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning to express it is very clear, the purpose of letting a certain person come here is to rectify Zuo Jin Wuwei, if Zhao is afraid of the wolf and the tiger in front of this Zuo Jin Wuwei, then what is the point of His Majesty letting Zhao come to work?" Maybe the general has really been nesting in this Chang'an City for too long, afraid of offending the powerful, and you think they all have big backers behind them, but you don't, you are afraid that you can't fight them, right? In fact, the generals don't have to worry, they have backers, and you also have backers, our Zuo Jin Wuwei is the emperor's personal guard, our backer is the emperor, as long as we are loyal to the emperor, why not be afraid of other people's backers? Who in this Tang Dynasty has a backer who is greater than Your Majesty?

Many courtiers keep saying that they are loyal to the emperor and the Tang Dynasty, but in fact, loyalty is not said by mouth, but must always be kept in their hearts, and they must be proved with practical actions, how to prove it? The emperor is the master of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor follows the law, we maintain the law and discipline of the Tang Dynasty is to maintain the authority of the emperor, no matter who it is, as long as the destruction of the law and discipline of the dynasty is to destroy and attack the authority of the emperor, we Zuo Jin Wuwei must be resolutely punished to protect the rights and interests of the emperor, this is loyalty! Your Majesty is wise and martial, you will not fail to understand who everything we do is for, the emperor needs many courtiers to govern the country, he needs loyal ministers, he needs capable ministers, he needs cool officials, and even traitorous ministers, but he does not need Yongchen, although Yongchen is the most, but in the eyes of the emperor, Yongchen is a chess piece that can be abandoned at any time, and the above people are the emperor's indispensable ministers to govern the country!

General, a person is not afraid of being used, others can use us, it means that we still have some value, if we are not used by others, it means that we have no value, for some people, what is the use of keeping such a person? It's like a rag that can be discarded at any time! ”

Ma Zhenyuan listened to what Zhao Ziliang said, and was speechless for a long time. After a long time, he sighed and said: "The old man has lived sixty and five, and he is not as good as a young man under twenty years old who can see and see far, ashamed, ashamed!" This Zuo Jin Wuwei should also be cleaned up, or not, tomorrow the old man will send his family to the ancestral house of Luoyang, the capital of the gods, if General Zhao wants to do anything after taking office, just send someone to inform the old man, if you need funds, find Changshi Guo, if someone is looking for trouble, all will be blocked by the old man, you just throw off your arms and do a big job, unless His Majesty the Emperor removes the old man from the official position of the general."

"The general is wise, thank you for your support!" Zhao Ziliang got up and bowed deeply, and said: "What's the matter, Ziliang is willing to bear it with the general, when the last general served as the left guard of the left guard, I don't know how many noble children, gentlemen, and relatives of the emperor and the country have been punished, it is estimated that these people are eager to skin and cramp the last general, anyway, they have already offended ruthlessly, and it is not a big deal to offend them again, there are many lice and are not afraid of biting, and dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water!" As long as we behave properly, sit upright, and enforce the law impartially, what can they do to us? ”

Ma Zhenyuan listened to Zhao Ziliang's words, got up and patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Ziliang is really extraordinary, hahaha, you let it go!" ”

"In this way, the last general will retire first!"

After coming out of Ma Zhenyuan's squad room, Zhao Ziliang went to the building on the north side of Zuojin Wuwei, where the squad of Zuo Wei General He Jiguang was, and the Zuo Ling Zhonglang General's Mansion under his control was also here.

He Jiguang welcomed Zhao Ziliang to visit, the two are in charge of different areas, different powers, basically there is no conflict of interest, He Jiguang is in charge of Zuo Ling Zhonglang General Mansion is responsible for the security inspection and police affairs of the palace and the imperial city, basically a clear water yamen, the guards also dare to blackmail those palace maids and eunuchs, and dare not offend the ministers of the court, the emperor's relatives and the harem concubines, where is the oil and water to be fished? And the patrols and police affairs in the streets and alleys of Chang'an County under the jurisdiction of Zhao Ziliang have a lot of oil and water. (To be continued.) )
