Dad, this seems to be the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 338
To understand why Zhao Guangyi had the courage to challenge Zhao Kuangyin, we have to start more than a year ago.

At that time, there was a bribery case of the King of Jin that shocked the world. Zhao Kuangyin finally hit Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Pu on the heads with a big stick. The original intention was to make these two people more honest.

But in the end, I have to say, it backfired.Let’s talk about Zhao Pu first. He turned a central government office like the Zhengshitang into a monolithic hall. The two counselors and political officials were supposed to check and balance him, but in the end they made him act like an assistant. In his absence, no one would hold meetings, and originally The Privy Council, a powerhouse of military power, is indeed a place where even though the tea has not yet cooled down, the new Privy Councilor Li Chongju has a good relationship with Zhao Pu. He listens to whatever Zhao Pu says without any opinions of his own. Why did he actually marry Zhao Pu?

He monopolizes the political affairs hall with one word, and controls the Privy Council with one hand. He alone has the final say on both military and political aspects. This is already a standard official. Compared with Wang Jun back then, he is only stronger than weaker. Whatever you do, you have to take his opinion into account.

Let’s talk about Zhao Guangyi again. Zhao Kuangyin removed him from the position of Zhongshu Ling, but his status rose instead of down, because before Zhao Kuangyin conquered the Northern Han Dynasty, Zhao Guangyi stayed behind to supervise the country. The battle lasted for more than half a year. When Zhao Kuangyin When he came back, many things changed, especially this person's infiltration into the New Army, and the fact that Chu Zhaofu, who was in charge of the Third Division, surrendered to him. He is now more powerful than before when he was a secretary. Too many beeps.

The power in the world is fixed, there is a total number, the power of Zhao Pu and Zhao Guangyi has increased frankly, whose power has become smaller?Obviously, it was Zhao Kuangyin himself.

A situation unprecedented in the 5000-year history has occurred, that is, the emperor's prestige is increasing day by day, but his real power is getting smaller and smaller. Looking through the history books, this phenomenon is still unique.

In less than ten years, Zhao Kuangyin first destroyed Jinghu and then later Shu, swept south to the south and conquered Khitan in the north, and even took back the clouds in Yanyun, sweeping away the misery of the Han people who were repeatedly bullied since the end of Tang Dynasty, and restored the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. The trend has been achieved, but the common people have hardly added any burden. Whether it is popular, official or military prestige, they have all reached the peak of all emperors since the end of Tang Dynasty. If everything goes well, when he takes back Yanyun Sixteen Afterwards, the three characters Zhao Kuangyin must be compared with Li Shimin, the first emperor through the ages.

However, his fucking real power is getting smaller and smaller.

It's weird, but it's true, because Zhao Kuangyin has two fatal weaknesses in his character: nostalgia for old times and benevolence.

Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Pu have seized power to this point. To be honest, they are no longer his right-hand men, but his enemies in the true sense. Let alone the prince or not, there are not many real princes who are so powerful. Dad can bear it, except for Li Longji.

But having said that, in today's political situation, apart from Zhao Kuangyin's unparalleled prestige, how much better can he be than Li Dan?Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Pu have become more and more like Li Longji and Princess Taiping in the Tang Dynasty.

If you compare it with Zhu Yuanzhang, you will find that almost all of Zhao Kuangyin's ability indicators are far above him. Whether it is commanding troops or governing the country, even the means of controlling his subordinates are much better than him, but the great Ming Dynasty is better than the Great Song Dynasty. Stability, even if the ancestral family law set by Zhu Yuanzhang is full of loopholes, especially in the economic part (I only say economics, don’t spray me with bright fans), causing his descendants to suffer unspeakably, which is not even comparable to the Song Dynasty, but they are big It is clear and true that Guozuo has persisted for nearly 300 years.Not convinced?

I have to admit the fact that a founding king should be as cruel as possible. The country should be more stable if it kills more people. Perhaps as a human being, many of Zhu Yuanzhang’s practices are not good, but as a The founding king, he is better than Zhao Kuangyin!

It can be said that with Zhao Kuangyin's prestige at this time, he really can kill whoever he wants, and he can kill as much as he wants. There is nothing Zhu Yuanzhang can do that he can't do. There is no better way to kill someone who can compete with him than to kill him first and talk later.

But Zhao Kuangyin just didn't kill, because one of these two people is his own younger brother, and the other is his confidant and good brother along the way, let alone the two of them, Zhao Kuangyin has almost never killed anyone except enemies since he became emperor. To be sure, this guy really doesn't like killing people.

History has proved that he paid a very high price for this. For example, he released his military power twice with a glass of wine, which essentially created a large number of big landlords, making the problem of land annexation in the Song Dynasty much faster than other dynasties. The landlords are all too big to lose, and even the formation of the generals later has a great relationship with this. If they were killed directly at that time, there would not be so many things later.

For example, the original history of the dispute between morality and danger, and even the sound of the candle shadow and the axe.

Speaking of this moment, Zhao Kuangyin just wanted to deal with the issue of three government orders in a more gentle way. It is certain that he never had the idea of ​​killing people.

Then, he was attacked by Zhao Guangyi.

It hurts like poking a lung tube.

He fully hoped that his good brother Zhao Pu could stand up and help him fight against this disobedient brother, just like what these two guys had done all along, but he was disappointed. No reaction.

A very ruthless reality, as Sun Chunming worked harder and better, the difficulty of moving the capital is now getting lower and lower day by day, and Zhao Kuangyin's meaning is becoming clearer day by day, and on the matter of moving the capital, Zhao Pu and Zhao Guangyi The interests are almost the same. Although moving the capital will cost most of Zhao Guangyi's life, it is actually not a good thing for Zhao Pu.

Because of moving the capital, there is bound to be a political reshuffle. The old forces have to give way to the new forces. This is also the best way for the emperors of all dynasties to get rid of the old forces. After moving the capital, will Zhao Pu be as beautiful as it is now?

Certainly not, Zhao Kuangyin just didn't want to kill him, and he didn't want to kill him, he really wanted to get rid of the two of them together.

So Zhao Pu wisely chose to remain silent, saying nothing and doing nothing. Who made the Sun family father and son really have a clue this time? To a certain extent, this matter was Zhao Pu and Zhao Guangyi together.

This ruthless reality made Zhao Kuangyin, who has always been very emotional, a little confused.

He sat blankly in the Long Live Hall, and said to the almost only trustworthy person around him, "Qianjun, do you think this emperor is all lonely?"

　I didn't break the chapter on purpose, it was all a coincidence before, really.In order not to be scolded as a broken chapter dog, I didn't save the manuscript, and still released the only chapter I saved.Three more today.
