One Piece of Song Dynasty

As soon as they met, the Jin envoy Saluxu made rude remarks and accused the Song Dynasty of violating the covenant. He said loudly: "The emperor has ordered the prime minister and the prince Langjun to punish the people and attack them, and the army is coming from both directions."

Bai Shizhong, Li Bangyan, Cai You and other ministers "all lost their composure upon hearing this and did not dare to answer."

Salushu added: "The Prime Minister and the Prince don't want to ruin the lives of the two dynasties, but what you, the Song Dynasty, did is really annoying."

Bai Shizhong asked carefully: "How can we slow down the army?"

Wang Jieru replied: "There is a way, it is just to cede territories and become ministers."

When all the ministers heard this, their faces changed with fright, and they did not dare to reply.

After the Jin envoy left, the ministers discussed together for a long time, and finally decided to "treat the Jin envoy with courtesy and send him away."

Cai You's younger brother, Cai Sui, believed that the purpose of the Jin envoy coming to Beijing was to inquire about the internal situation of our court. He suggested to Cai You: "It is better to kill the envoy if the passerby fails to speak, so that he will ignore it. Otherwise, just imprison him." Don't let me know my true feelings."

Cai You, Bai Shizhong, Li Bangyan and others studied it and thought that doing so might "increase the speed of their troops", so they refused to adopt it.

On December , Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty "concluded the sacrificial ceremony in the suburbs and expressed his gratitude to the Chuxiang Palace of the Qing Dynasty." On this day, Cai You received a call from Zhang Xiaochun of Taiyuan Prefecture in Hedong Province who "sent an urgent message and begged for help." He still "hidden and refused to come in." ". The emergency officials dispatched by Cai Jing, Guo Yaoshi, and Zhang Xiaochun a few days ago traveled through the starry night and "all arrived in the capital" that day. Moreover, the Privy Council received another memorial from Zhan Du, the magistrate of Zhongshan Prefecture, saying that "the Jin people split up and joined the invaders." Guo Yaoshi had surrendered to the Jin people. On that day, Zhan Du "reported to the capital three times in a row," and the court was immediately shocked.

At this time, Cai You and Tong Guancai felt that the situation was critical and "we can't hide it, so we must report it." But they did not dare to tell Song Huizong that Medicine Master Guo had surrendered. They hid the truth, "but one day Medicine Master was surrounded." They did not dare to report to Song Huizong that Guo Yaoshi had rebelled and surrendered to the enemy, because Guo Yaoshi was the one they advocated for re-employment, and they were afraid of being held accountable.

Song Huizong was shocked when he heard the news, "If you don't end the ceremony, you must return it to the inside." Song Huizong asked the governors to discuss it quickly, but it couldn't be done, so he issued an order to appoint Guo Pharmacist as the military governor of the Yongqing Army and granted him the title of King of Yan; Zhang ordered Huifeng The king of the county "cut off the land of Yan and made it a guardian of the world." However, it was actually useless.

On the same day, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty issued an urgent edict, requiring all ministers to submit "statement of interests and interests." The edict said: "When dealing with Yanshan in Hebei Province, it is reasonable to inquire about the interests and select talents, and to authorize civil and military officials to submit a petition to the minister for self-effectiveness, and to present the details of the interests."

The Jin people, Han Alliance, sent troops to invade, "the superiors were greatly frightened". In the Chongzheng Hall, Liang Shicheng stood in front of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty holding a large pile of documents concerning the treaty with the Kingdom of Jin. Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty looked at him and said: "When the Northern Incident started, others misunderstood me, but Taishi alone was right from beginning to end. As of now, there is no need to ask him."

Liang Shicheng "pressed his ears and played closely for a long time", and Song Huizong stopped silently. I don’t know what Liang Shicheng said to Song Huizong.

Zong Wang led the Jin army on the east route out of Yanjing City and headed south, and soon crossed the Baigou River. The momentum along the way was like breaking bamboo. However, when attacking the two cities of Baozhou and Ansu, the Jin army was frustrated and failed to capture them. Zong Wang ordered the army to circle the city and continue southward. Zong Wang and Zong Han used their troops differently. Zong Han always conquered the city when encountering it, while Zong Wang marched straight into the city.

At this time, the Yanshanfu Road officials of the Song Dynasty who followed the army south were "divided into various camps." The capital transfer envoy Lu Yihao is in the Jamu Camp, the deputy envoy Li Yuquan is in the Zongwang Camp, the promotion officer Shen Guan is in the left-behind camp, and the others are in the Dutong Camp. Shen Guan remembered that when he was in Yanjing City a few days ago, Zong Wang had sent someone to tell Cai Jing that if he wanted to make peace, please "send the words." At that time, Cai Jing was worried that Zong Wang would "drop out", so he asked Shen Guan to quickly draft a peace treaty, but he set off with the army before he could write it.

On December th, outside the gate of Ansu Military City, General Shen Guan "wanted to offer peace talks to the guarding officers and others, and everyone said it was very good. In this way, the flowers would not lose their honey, but they would also get more honey." It was done." Shen Guan "then asked an officer in the next camp to borrow an inkstone and three pieces of Mao-tou paper." He wrote a peace agreement under the lamp at night. The full text is as follows:

A certain person dedicated a letter to the Crown Prince: A certain person said that the virtues of heaven and earth can be great, but Confucius said it all in one sentence: It is just life. The Crown Prince Fu Wei personally supported the troops to punish those who did not believe in him. He did not kill anyone when he entered the country, and he did not take a cent. He defended the city of Hebei and refused to surrender. If you look at his foolishness, you will not force him to pass. This is the virtue of a true nature. . Emperor Zhao was smart and wise, and he had heard about it all over the world. If he tried to deceive his ministers, he would be guilty of disbelief. Yao, the former great emperor of the Tang Dynasty, still used Fang to order Gun, a member of the Yu tribe. For nine years, he failed to achieve his goals, and then he was executed in Yushan. Cheng Tang is a virtuous king in the past. His ministers are not called him, but he has no faults but he is called a virtuous king who is not stingy in correcting his mistakes. The virtue of Emperor Zhao was greater than that of Yao Tang. How could he not change his ways by killing Gun? What's more, my great ancestor Taizong conquered the world by bowing and yielding. Although he showed his martial arts, he did not kill anyone. He was followed by Zhenzong and Renzong, who ruled purely with benevolence and righteousness. His virtues have been deeply rooted in people. , not easily shaken, Zhao Huang was willing to raise Heshuo suddenly and then abandoned it. He also had to gather his troops and fight. The victory or defeat was irrelevant. However, the winner would not be harmed at all. There are many strange ears, not to mention the The losers are the soldiers of the two countries. They all died to be loyal to the country, but their hearts were broken. This was not the original intention of the emperor's order to the people when he first entered Yan. A certain person wanted to choose ten light soldiers and ride with him. He rode to Bian with a certain person and met Emperor Zhao in person. He sent ministers to the army to discuss how much gold and silk would be used to reward the soldiers, and to increase the annual coins to pay for peace. This was also the case for the Emperor of Jin. Isn’t it wonderful to have endless wishes? If you think they are true and wish to be carried out quickly, or if you think they are not true, since they are not effective, they will be useless in the army.

The next day, Shen Guan wanted to present the peace agreement to Zong Wang, but because he could not find an opportunity, he "could not submit it." At this time, he happened to meet Lu Yihao coming on horseback, so he "wrote a letter to him" and asked him to hand it over to his mother.

On the same day, December , Song Huizong "heard that thieves and horses were approaching" and hurriedly ordered the crown prince Zhao Heng to be Kaifeng's pastor. He said in his imperial pen: "In addition to being granted the title of Mu, the Crown Prince is still following the story. This is my intention. It was not Jian Ming, the minister on the left and right, who sent the imperial edict to this effect."

Kaifeng Mu and Yin were not often placed in the Song Dynasty. Song Taizong and Song Zhenzong "both tasted Yin Jing, and after that, the princes had no successors." At this time, Song Huizong appointed Prince Zhao Huan as Kaifeng Mu, with the purpose of letting him stay in Tokyo to resist the Jin army, while he planned to withdraw southward, "fortunately to Huaihe and Zhejiang" to avoid the enemy's edge. So, "The prime minister went to the capital hall for a meeting on the th, and a minister had chosen the th day for the crown prince to take charge of Kaifeng mansion affairs."

On December , the crown prince Zhao Huan entered the court. Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty ordered that the goldfish worn by the prince be removed and "given a square jade belt." According to the regulations of the imperial court, the Paifang jade belt is only for the emperor and not for the ministers. In the Song Dynasty, there were many gold belts and few jade belts. "Jade belts are not allowed to be used on public clothes." lv
