June 15, the Great Pilgrimage.

During this time, Xuanzong can be said to have had a very uncomfortable time, the affairs of the Tubo people, the affairs of the Mobei Turks, and the people who plead for Zhao Ziliang every day come to ask for a meeting, coupled with the death of Li Yuan, the king of Xin'an, which made Xuanzong quite irritable.

At the end of the court meeting, Xuanzong said: "King Xin'an has gone, he has made outstanding contributions when he was alive, and I want to posthumously give him the title of Tai Lieutenant, I don't know what you think?" ”

The post of Tai Lieutenant has always been the highest military official, and in the Han Dynasty, he was still the supreme commander of the national army, and Li Yuan himself was a general, and posthumously awarding him as a Tai Lieutenant was already the greatest recognition of him, and all the ministers echoed and agreed.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Xuanzong nodded and said, "Okay, this matter is decided!" If nothing else, that's all for today's pilgrimage! ”

At this time, Li Linfu stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, at the half-moon court meeting, the old minister reported to Your Majesty that the general candidates who escorted Ashina Xin back to the Ten Khans of the Turks have not yet been decided, I don't know if Your Majesty can now set a good candidate, so that Ashina Xin can return to the Turks as soon as possible?" ”

Xuanzong really forgot about this, it was all Zhao Ziliang who made trouble, Xuanzong couldn't help but say something about Zhao Ziliang again, and asked: "Is there still a military general in the DPRK who is idle at home?" ”

After the death of Niu Xianke, the post of secretary of the military department fell to the crown prince Li Heng, and he immediately stood up and said: "Father, there is really no general in the court who is idle at home."

As soon as Li Heng finished speaking, Chen Xuanli, the new general of the Zuolong Martial Army, stood up and hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince, isn't General Zhao Ziliang at home now?" Why don't you let him lead troops to escort Ashina Xin to the Turgish? ”

The crown prince Li Hengming knew that Zhao Ziliang was still locked up in the prison, but he seemed to have forgotten, and pretended to hesitate: "Father, my son thinks that it is good to let General Zhao lead the troops to escort Ashina Xin, but General Zhao is a general from the fourth grade, and he once served as the general of the Janissary Guard, is it too much to let him lead the troops to escort Ash Naxin?" This is obviously overkill! ”

Xuanzong was still angry with Zhao Ziliang, and immediately snorted coldly: "Hmph, now there is no general in the court who is idle at home, but he is cheaper, let him lead the troops to escort Ashina Xin to take office!" ”

Li Heng hurriedly agreed: "Obey!" ”

Tian Renwan, who was standing among the ministers, couldn't help but be happy for Zhao Ziliang, although this mission was hard, but he was able to get out of prison, right? He began to fight Zhao Ziliang's idea in his heart again, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, when General Zhao returns from Anxi, please also ask Your Majesty to transfer him to Hedong to give Weichen a hand. ”

When Xuanzong heard this, he couldn't help but be a little amused, "Hey, you will never forget Zhao Ziliang when you arrive, and it will be his blessing that he can know you, okay, when he returns from Anxi, let him go to Hedong to serve as the left wing soldier and horse envoy and Datong military envoy!" ”

Tian Renwan was overjoyed, and immediately bowed down and shouted: "Your Majesty, long live!" ”

······

The entrance to the prison.

The gate opened, Zhao Ziliang, who had already washed inside, walked out of the gate of the prison wearing armor, Chen Qingying and Nie Sanniang each held their children, Zhao Hu held his younger brother Zhao Lei, Wang Zhiyun snuggled closely beside Chen Qingying, and everyone saw Zhao Ziliang coming out of the prison, and immediately cried and pounced.

Zhao Ziliang hugged everyone one by one with open arms, and comforted: "Okay, okay, didn't I come out, don't cry, let's go home and talk about it!" ”

Brehan, Wang Can, Nur, Gong Ren, Chen Qing and the Eighteen Horsemen of the Whirlwind stood behind each with excited faces, and they all saluted Zhao Ziliang with their fists: "The general has finally come out, congratulations!" ”

Zhao Ziliang waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go to Zhuangzi, let's have a few drinks today!" ”

The crowd happily agreed: "No! ”

Before he had time to go home, he saw a few people trotting over on horses, and Zhao Ziliang said to everyone after seeing the people coming: "A friend is coming, you go back first, and so-and-so will arrive later!" ”

Brehan stayed with two servants, and the others had all their strength, Zhao Ziliang greeted the person and said: "I will be released from prison at the end of today, thank you for coming to visit, the last general is grateful!" ”

Tian Renwan got off the horse, handed over the war horse to the servant behind him, waved his hand to Zhao Ziliang and said with a smile: "General Zhao, you and I haven't known each other for a day or two, so there is no need to be so polite, this official first congratulates you on your release from prison, and in addition, this official has asked His Majesty to come over, and after you escort Ashina Xin back to Tuqishi, he will be transferred to Hedong to serve as the left wing soldier and horse envoy and Datong military envoy!" ”

When Zhao Ziliang heard this, he immediately bowed and said: "Thank you for your mediation, after returning from Anxi, the last general will go to Hedong to take up his post, and I will ask you to bring me more in the future!" ”

Tian Renwan laughed and said, "Hahaha······ Cooperate with each other, only by supporting each other, can we run Hedong well! ”

Zhao Ziliang remembered that Tian Renwan once told him that there was a lack of generals in the Hedong Army, he thought about it and said, "Didn't my lord say that the Hedong Army lacked generals? The last general recommended two people to adults, respectively called Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, Guo Ziyi is a calm and atmospheric person, family history, and the talent of a general, Li Guangbi is serious, deep and resolute, and the army is strict, two years ago, these two people were famous on the martial arts list, when the world Niu Xianke was the main examiner, but Niu was seriously ill and could not be a director, so the last general was fully responsible for the affairs of the martial arts, so it can also be said that the last general can also be regarded as their teacher, Li Guangbi is now the protector of Anbei, and the right-hand man of General Wang Zhonghe, I am afraid that it will not be easy to get him to Hedong, but Guo Ziyi is now serving as a county lieutenant in Lingwu, which can be described as overkill, and if the adult is interested, he will be able to repair a book to Guo Ziyi! ”

After listening to Zhao Ziliang's words, Tian Renwan nodded and said: "The person who can be valued and recommended by the general must have some talent, since this is the case, the official will wait for the vacant position."

After saying goodbye to Tian Renwan and returning home, just after having dinner with his family, many people came to visit, including Yang Yuhuan, the head of the Taizhen Dao, Li Zhiying, the head of the Yuzhen Dao, Chen Xuanli, the general of Longwu, and Zang Xiyan, the general of Jin Wuwei, and others.

After sending everyone away, Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but sigh a little: "People still need friends!" ”

Before he was released from prison, the eunuch went to the prison to read out the emperor's holy decree, and asked him to lead the troops to escort Ashina Xin back to the Turkish to serve as the ten surnamed Khan, but he was a real killer to Li Linfu this time, Li Linfu's threat is too great, not only because he is in a high position, but also because this person is ruthless, once he seizes the opportunity, he will bite the hell, if it is not for Yang Yuhuan and Li Yuan and others to mediate this time, he really doesn't know if he can pass this pass.

Since he really had murderous intentions towards Li Linfu, Zhao Ziliang immediately took action, he sent someone to find Wang Can, and Wang Can quickly came over, "General, are you looking for me?" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "You go and make arrangements, tomorrow I will meet with the Ashina clan, the location is arranged in a more secret way, to prevent tails from following."

Wang Can's expression was serious, and he clenched his fists and arched his hands: "Don't worry, the general will know!" ”

June 16, noon, Weishui.

Zhao Ziliang sat under the shade of the tree and held a fishing rod motionless, the river was very fast, and the float tied to the fishing line mountain was far away from the river.

At this time, a carriage came from a distance, the coachman drove to a stop away from the river, under a big tree, fifty meters away from Zhao Ziliang, a maid jumped down from the carriage with a small bench and put it on the side of the carriage, and a noble lady stepped off the carriage with the support of the maid, explained a few words to the maid and the coachman, the lady looked left and right, and then walked towards Zhao Ziliang with a hat.

When he came to Zhao Ziliang's side, Ashina made a blessing and said: "Let the general wait for a long time!" ”

Zhao Ziliang didn't look at her either, only listened to the float on the river and said, "Ashina, you seem to have forgotten the agreement between us in the past two years!" ”

Ashina hurriedly said: "General, the slave family can't help himself, Li Linfu's old thing is too cunning, and the slave family can't control him at all!" ”

Zhao Zi's conscience said that if you can control Li Linfu, Li Linfu will not be Li Linfu! He said: "In a few days, General Ben will lead the troops to escort your brother Ashina Xin back to the Turkish to be the Khan of the Ten Surnames, do you want to go along?" ”

Ashina's eyes lit up, his expression was excited, and he immediately said: "Of course I want to, please also ask the general to bring the slave family with him, so that the slave family and his brother's family can be reunited!" ”

At this time, the float on the river surface continued to move, it was the fish that was hooked, Zhao Ziliang immediately pulled up the fishing rod, a big red carp was pulled up, Zhao Ziliang loaded it with a bamboo basket, hooked a worm on the fishing hook again and threw it into the river, and said after doing all this: "Yes, but you have to put this packet of medicinal powder into Li Linfu's food!" After speaking, he took out a small paper bag wrapped in yellow paper from his bosom and handed it to Ashina.

Ashina's face changed, he stretched out his trembling hand and slowly took the small paper bag, and asked tremblingly, "This, what is this?" ”

Zhao Ziliang said in an indifferent tone: "Poison, as long as you hide a little bit in your fingernails and stir it slightly in the wine or soup, even if a cow eats it, it will die extremely miserably after a while!" ”

Ashina was even more unbearable when he heard this, and couldn't help but shiver, his body shook a few times involuntarily, and he stammered: "General, general, if this is discovered, the slave family will die and have no place to be buried!" ”

Zhao Ziliang snorted coldly and said, "If you don't agree, your brother will also die without a place to be buried!" This is thousands of miles away from Turgish, the road is full of Gobi, desert, countless horse bandits, when Ashina Xin is on the way to Turgish was attacked and killed by horse bandits or attacked and killed by Mohedagan, who knows? Besides, you've been undercover in Li Linfu's mansion for two years, if he knew your true purpose, what would you say would happen to you with his temper? ”

Thinking of Li Linfu's viciousness, Ashina's body trembled even more, in the face of Zhao Ziliang's threat, and with a strong desire to replace his brother to rule the Tuqishi Prairie, Ashina's eyes gradually became firm, his face became cold and resolute, and his body no longer trembled, she put away the small medicine bag and said coldly: "Okay, the general will get good news in two days!"
