One Piece of Song Dynasty

October th is Tianning Festival, which is the birthday of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty. On this day, Song Qinzong led his ministers to Longde Palace to wish him a long life. Song Huizong, who had just turned forty-four years old, had been under house arrest in Longde Palace for more than six months by Song Qinzong. During this period, in order to prevent Song Huizong from interfering in the government affairs, Song Qinzong arranged some so-called "people of Ming, loyalty and filial piety" around him, such as Tan Shiji, Li Xijing and others, to serve as supervisors and chamberlains of Longde Palace, ostensibly requiring them to take good care of the emperor's family. Life actually tasked them with monitoring the Emperor and requiring them to promptly report the Emperor's daily activities. Song Qinzong's purpose was very clear, which was to make Song Huizong completely withdraw from politics and never interfere in government affairs.

Song Huizong should be clear about Song Qinzong's intentions. In order to win over people's hearts and obtain information from the outside world, Song Huizong often took out some financial items and awarded them to those around him. After Song Qinzong found out, he immediately ordered Kaifeng Yin to confiscate these properties and "keep them in the palace." This is evident from Song Huizong's situation.

Song Huizong must have been a little aggrieved. Every time he wrote to Song Qinzong, he called himself Lao Zhuo and called Song Qinzong his majesty. Although he has abdicated, it is unrealistic and impossible for him to completely ignore the current political security at a time of national crisis. He wrote a letter to Song Qinzong, asserting that "the Jin people will definitely invade Jingque again" and asked Song Qinzong to allow him to "go to Xijing to organize troops." At that time, Wu Min had not yet been dismissed from office. Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty asked Wu Min for his opinion. Wu Min thought it was not possible. The reason was: "The emperor was in the south and had already intended to intercept all the soldiers on the road. Fortunately, he returned to the capital. Your Majesty sent you greetings and inspected the meal. He was completely filial. That's enough, how can you be burdened by military affairs?" Wu Min's words were rather vague, but the meaning should be clear to Song Qinzong. What Wu Min really meant was that the Supreme Emperor had interfered in government affairs when he was in the south. Now that he was under house arrest, how could he be released to interfere in military affairs? In fact, even without Wu Min's advice, Song Qinzong would not have been able to let Song Huizong leave the capital. , let alone go out to "manage troops".

Later, Song Huizong suggested "making a fortune with the emperor", that is, the father and son evacuated Kaifeng at the same time, but Song Qinzong also rejected it.

On Tianning Festival, Song Huizong was very happy to see Song Qinzong and his ministers coming to wish him a birthday. He filled a glass of wine and drank it himself, then filled another glass for Song Qinzong to drink. Just as Song Qinzong was about to drink it, a minister suddenly stepped on Song Qinzong's foot and reminded Song Qinzong that the wine might be poisonous and he should not drink it. Song Qinzong put down his cup and did not dare to drink. Song Huizong once again persuaded him to drink wine, but Song Qinzong "firmly resigned and did not dare to drink and retreat." Song Huizong "went into the palace crying".

In cruel political struggles, using poison and wine to murder political opponents is a relatively common method. Song Huizong was very sad. He did not expect that the emperor would regard him as a political enemy and be so wary of him. This incident further intensified the tension between father and son. "Since then, the two palaces have been inseparable."

From then on, Song Huizong became even more isolated from the outside world. He wandered in Longde Palace melancholy and helplessly until the day of disaster.

After Zong Han captured Taiyuan Prefecture, he sent Yang Tianji and Wang Rui as interrogators in the name of the two marshals' offices to come to Tokyo to interrogate the culprits. He accused the Song Dynasty of writing letters to contact Yelu Dashi and the Khitan King of Liang, and showing Yelu Yu a wax letter, etc. thing.

The Jin envoys were very arrogant when they came this time. They handed the confession letter to Song Qinzong and asked him face to face: "Your Majesty did not cede the land of the three towns, but he still tolerated and wanted to establish the Khitan Queen."

Song Qinzong replied: "This is what a traitor did."

Song Qinzong refused to admit that he had done it. He repeatedly made humble remarks and made it clear that this was not the fault of the court.

The Jin Dynasty's Inquiry Letter said: "The left deputy marshal of the Great Jin Dynasty Gunilun Elaqibele and the right deputy marshal of the prince wrote to the emperor of the Song Dynasty together: due to a quarrel, the company's troops returned, and they will see each other. . Thinking about the plan of seeking an alliance, he used the words of approving the cession of the territory. Later, things were settled and left, and he agreed to resume the Chongqing Revolution. In addition, the emperor's lesson is not far away, and the warning to suppress the Liao is ahead. If you sincerely think about the kindness of rebuilding, you can easily forget it. The intention is to maintain the confidence of success for a long time, and to draw the boundaries of the Yuan Dynasty in the early th century. He once made a speech, managed the transportation, and now countered the stubbornness of the local people and increased the military strength to relieve the siege. This matter is difficult to plan, as I said in the past An Zai Nai sent Xiao Zhonggong, Zhao Lun and others to retaliate with writings. When they returned to Japan, they often taught spies the language and secretly spread the structured writings. They dared to make the same mistake as before, and today.

For this reason, he applied to the imperial court and received an order. According to this, he provoked evil and went beyond the emperor. He sent officials to investigate the crime and implemented it in a lenient manner. Today, Yang Tianji, the military envoy of the Baojing Army, and Wang Ruchong, the military envoy of the Zhaode Army, are sent to inquire about the crime. If you deeply regret your past mistakes, please quickly order your uncle King Yue, your brother King Yun, and a member of Tai Shaozai to go to Xingfu together, write a letter to express your gratitude, and still seize the three mansions in Yuan Dynasty. Immediately issue an edict and order the door to be opened. To be decided. If you can't do this, the picture shows. white. "

Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty explained in his reply: "Yesterday, due to the report, I learned that there was a silk book. The traitor is forging, why not? If the two countries are in harmony and nothing happens, there will be no gap to take advantage of. The traitor is unfavorable, and this structure is intended to drive a wedge. After a short period of time, he was treated according to the law, and he was punished according to the standard. I am sorry for the holy dynasty, and I will specially add a cave to take care of him."

While questioning the crime, the Jin envoy asked the Song Dynasty to continue to fulfill the original agreement and cede the two towns of Zhongshan and Hejian. In addition, they also asked for gold silk, chariots and robes, and enlarged the Golden Emperor's emblem. They even wanted to take away the family members of nine people including Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Wang Fu, Wu Min, and Li Gang.

Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty ordered Wang Shiyong to be responsible for the reception. Wang Shiyong tried his best to please the Jin envoy. He told the Jin envoy that the court would turn all the taxes paid by the three towns into annual coins, and would also transfer all the treasures stored in the ancestral palace to Give it to the second handsome man. Moreover, the imperial court felt that the Jin army on the East and West Road of Hexi had been fighting outside for a long time, and planned to reward them well. Yang Tianji and Wang Ru found Wang Shiyong's words very pleasing to their ears and were quite happy.

In order to send the Jin envoy away as soon as possible, Song Qinzong specially approved pieces of silk for the Jin envoy to take back to reward the army. Song Qinzong appointed Wang Ji, the young eunuch, as the country's envoy to accompany the Jin envoy back.

On the one hand, Zong Han sent envoys to question the Song Dynasty. On the other hand, he ordered Yin Shu to stay in Taiyuan and ordered Lou Shi to march to Fenzhou in the southwest of Taiyuan to expand the results of the war. He himself led the troops to advance towards the Shouyang and Pingding Army areas east of Taiyuan, planning to open up a communication channel with the Zongwang East Route Army.

Shouyang City is a small city, but because the people defended it, the Jin Army attacked the city three times, resulting in many casualties, but in the end they were unable to break it. Zong Han then circled the east side of the city and turned to attack the Pingding Army, hoping to break through Jingxing Pass. At this time, Zong Wang led his troops from Zhending and attacked westward. Under the joint attack of the two armies, the Pingding Army finally fell.

During the defense battle of the Pingding Army, Yue Fei participated in the war again. The last time he joined the army, his father died of illness and he needed to return to his hometown to observe his filial piety. Yue Fei ended his first military career hastily.

In the sixth year of Xuanhe's reign, there was a flood in Yue Fei's hometown and his family life was difficult. He had no choice but to join the army in the Pingding Army on Hedong Road and was promoted to a partial school. Soon, he took his wife and son to live in the Pingding Army.

After Pingding City was captured by the Jin army, Yue Fei took his wife and son out of the city and returned to his hometown.
