Chapter 15 Chapter Fifteen Warm and Caring Wang Aiqing

Time and space are changing, and it is no longer the time to start a country and start a business. What kind of emperor is needed to govern such a huge and rich empire? The connotation is richer, the mind is super huge... The third emperor of Zhao Song was a very different person.Looking at him, it must not be just superficial.For example, from the first few orders he issued. As usual, he awarded the reward first. Starting from his dearest "mother", he chooses to completely lose his memory, forgetting what just happened in a blink of an eye.The identity of the original empress Li was officially confirmed as the empress dowager, and at the same time, out of respect, she was allowed to live in the original Jiaqing Palace of the West Palace; after that, he honored his biological mother, the long-dead Li Shi, as a virtuous concubine.With this basic title, it is possible to further pursue the title of Empress Dowager Yuande.

Afterwards, his relatives were rewarded on a large scale, and his four younger brothers were crowned kings together.Yuanfen and Yuanjie were originally the Kings of Yue and King Wu. At this time, they were changed to King Yu and King Yan, and their actual treatment was improved.Yuan Xi and Yuan Cheng were just Jiedu envoys before, but now one is the king of Pengcheng and the other is the king of Anding.And the future is long, the prince is just around the corner. Yuan Zuo, who was confined in the deep palace, became his political enemy this time, and no matter whether it was intentional or not, he really threatened his throne.But Zhao Heng didn't mind. He named his elder brother King of Chu and wanted to visit him in the palace.But Yuan Zuo refused, saying that even if you came, I would not see you.

This year, Zhao Heng was twenty-nine years old, and Yuan Zuo was only thirty-one years old.They really never saw each other again. Why is this?Maybe the elder brother who voluntarily gave up the throne back then thought that the younger brother should not be, and is not worthy of, being the emperor!Silent protest, just like pretending to be crazy to let father down and having to abandon him... The above is internally, and externally, it seems to follow the scriptures, completely repeating the procedure of the new emperor's ascension to the throne.For example, in the amnesty of the world, the officials of the Song Dynasty were promoted to a higher level, and the chief assistant prime minister Lu Duan was granted the right servant shot, and his status was even more respected.Li Zhi and Li Hang, who were guests when I was the prince, were promoted to political counselors and started working immediately...

Nothing new, and worst of all, he was too gentle and polite to his sworn enemy.Li Changling, the former political adviser, just transferred his work. The original text of the transfer order was "responsible for Zhongwu Jiedu Marching Sima".Although it is a pity, this is all a false job, and there is no real power anymore. Looking at Wang Jien, he was "responsible for granting the right prison guard to the general", and then he was resettled in Junzhou.Pay attention to "placement", which in the Song Dynasty's regulations for offenders means "living in a designated place, with certain restrictions on movement." It is lighter than "editorial management" (editorial management is equivalent to shuanggui), and heavier than "residence".It's totally a pampering punishment - please go to another place to retire, just don't leave my sight!

The most unlucky thing was Hu Dan, who had been banned by Yuanzhi. His household registration was cancelled, he was exiled to Xunzhou, and was completely thrown into the sewer. On the whole, it is obvious that the trend of rebellion has changed, and the new emperor is merciless, a soft guy who can't see blood. Is that true? Not at all, as long as you change the angle, you will see the other side of Zhao Heng. He did things very suddenly, and it would be treasonous to say it seriously. It starts with the big gift of fame and position when he ascended the throne.The living relatives have a share, but what about the dead?In addition to his mother, he also remembered his uncle and two uncles and brothers.

Zhao Tingmei, Zhao Dezhao, Zhao Defang. Forget about Dezhao and Defang, after all, they died "accidentally".However, Zhao Tingmei was demoted and exiled because of the crime of treason and treason.What's more, what filial piety pays attention to is "the father dies and the son does not change his rules for three years."three years?Two months later, Zhao Heng chased Dezhao and Defang as Taifu and Taibao.The posthumous title of the third uncle was even more outrageous, and he directly restored the most prominent title during his lifetime - "King of Qin". "Qin, Jin, Chu, Yu, Yan, Xiang" these are the top positions in the royal ranks, and they are never granted lightly.He can't wait to add the title, not only to rain down the official rain, lowering the standard of the state's reward, but also obviously slapped his father.

At the beginning, he was demoted for a serious crime, but now he is suddenly restored. Was he guilty or not?If he is really not guilty, isn't his father's reputation for forcing his brother to death very pleasant? Very exciting, but compared to the next one, this one seems too humane and warm. It is said that four years ago, there was a man named Wu Cheng, who was originally a magistrate of Yongqiu County. He was a small official, but he must have a lot of background, because he played a performance for the then emperor Zhao Guangyi and said, "I would like to reduce the harem." Concubine Qiang".In other words, there are too many women in your room, old emperor, I hope you can release them.

Isn't it weird?A county lieutenant can actually know the number of active women in the palace, and dare to convey it in official documents.But what's even more weird is that even Li Fang, the prime minister at the time and a well-known kind-hearted old man, couldn't stand it. ), and give him a severe demotion to investigate (it should be deposed to punish false speech).But the emperor himself was not angry, he replied formally to Wu Cheng, saying that there are only 300 women in the palace now, and they are all in charge of the harem, without any of them, they can't be separated, so they can't be released...

It should be noted here that three hundred, this number is really not many.Zhao Kuangyin is known for his frugality and lack of lust. The total number of maids and eunuchs in his late imperial palace was about 230, and there were 70 more. Is it a big deal?And Zhao Guangyi solemnly promised that day that he would never rob women of good families like Qin Shihuang and Han Wudi to become concubines in the palace. Please rest assured, I am also very shameless. The matter passed, Wu Cheng was safe and sound, and Zhao Guangyi behaved very benevolently.However, just as Comrade Zhao Heng took office, one day he suddenly said to the ministers in public: "There are a lot of concubines in the palace, and they are so claustrophobic. I have ordered them to be released for those who are old."

There are so many concubines and maids, they have been locked up so pitifully, I have already released them... It is only four years before and after, it could not be that Zhao Guangyi had sex before his death, and forcibly snatched so many beauties! There must be one of the two fathers who is lying, who is it? But this is not important, looking at the essence through the phenomenon, the core of Zhao Heng's doing this is six words - "Antagonism, release old grudges." No one should worry about anything anymore, all old debts have followed me Dissipated by his father's death.

Let's start all over again. Similarly, through the appearance of things, dig deeper into the essence of the Song Dynasty at this time, and you will find that an earth-shaking change has taken place.The emperor is no longer the former emperor, and the prime minister is no longer the former prime minister. I remember that in the Song Dynasty, the first emperor Zhao Kuangyin separated the military power and financial power of the prime minister, so that the three powers of military, government, and finance were independent, and eliminated the hidden danger of the prime minister's monopoly power; when the second emperor Zhao Guangyi came to power, he was more thorough. The frequency of changing the prime minister is like changing furniture. Not only is the power less, but you don't even want to be familiar with the business. This has created a fact-the prime minister of the Song Dynasty should never think of saying "no" to the emperor anyway.Don't look at Zhao Pu and Lu Mengzheng who have repeatedly forced the emperor to listen to their own words and order people they recommended.But the right to refute is firmly in the hands of the emperor. After all, they only forced the emperor once, but the emperor forced them every day. But when it came to Zhao Heng, the situation changed.According to the records above, the position of the great benefactor, Prime Minister Lu Duan, has not changed, and he has been granted the title of Right Servant. According to historical records, Zhao Heng has always been respectful to him. Every time the two meet, even in the main hall, the emperor will stand up and say to the prime minister, " bow in awe."And in order to let Lu Duan, who was full of fat and slow to move, go to the palace, the emperor specially ordered people to remodel the steps of the main hall... Is this just a favor and courtesy? Let's look at the two deputy prime ministers, Li Zhi and Li Hang.Both of them are veterans and both were his guests when he was the prince. To put it bluntly, they are teachers and counselors.From then on, the prime ministers of the Song Dynasty became extremely dignified. They straightened their waists and stiffened their faces. They looked at their emperor up and down, left and right. Seriously care about and give pointers, and if you don't like it, you will go online! And with the increase of time, this trend intensified, until the Song Dynasty was overthrown in the long river of time... The reason for such consequences is explained in the general history books. It is said that Zhao Heng is a good-natured baby by nature. He has no temper and likes to listen to different opinions, so everyone is used to it.But in fact?It's very simple, he wants to be majestic (pay attention to the rest of his life), but he can't stand up to the sky like his uncle. Who would dare to dissatisfied with the country he created by himself?He also couldn't learn from his father. His father had been the governor of Kaifeng for many years, and he had long been the most capable official in the world at that time in the Song Dynasty. Ever since he became a prince, he has been unable to compete with others. The two elder brothers above him are the eldest son who is both civil and military.When he grew up, it was entirely fate that pushed him to the forefront, just like Li Yu back then, who was forced to become the emperor. This is Zhao Heng's real face, a soft bastard with insufficient congenital, the whole world is waiting to see him make a fool of himself. But then we really have to wait. Almost every time in Zhao Heng's life, he twisted the world's hopes abruptly—is the east side okay?I am biased towards the west; failure is good, I am partial to success; as for looking forward to my success, "Know the white and keep the black, know the male and keep the female, damage it and damage it, be content without disgrace..." don't understand?It doesn't matter, Zhao Heng himself doesn't understand many things, and as God testifies, absolutely no one in this world understands!But he did it all.Therefore, we can only watch quietly like the people of the Song Dynasty more than a thousand years ago, watching him step onto the stage and make the world more colorful and splendid. Zhao Heng stepped onto the stage. At this time, he was very sober. Over the past thirty years, the most orthodox and outstanding private teachers have taught him the most orthodox and benevolent textbooks in the world, making him understand that apart from distributing benefits to relatives, In addition to ministers, he must also benefit his common people.So, he started to feel depressed. You have to give money as a reward, but where do you get the money? He worries just like his dad.Opening the inheritance certificate, the things inside are really shabby. The stately Song Dynasty was on the verge of bankruptcy in Zhao Guangyi's later years. The north, west, domestic, and foreign countries fought at the same time and asked for money. It's really easier said than done, where to change the money? At this time, happiness suddenly appeared, and talent came to the door by himself.To be precise, he didn't tell anyone about it. If he wanted to do this, someone would think of it for him. Wang Qinruo. Knowing the emperor's urgency, thinking about the emperor's thoughts, and first understanding what the leader is most looking forward to, this is Wang Qinruo's strongest point.In fact, Wang Qinruo had saved Zhao Heng once when he was the governor and crown prince of Kaifeng. It was in the second year of Zhidao, when Zhao Heng had just been crown prince for more than half a year, seventeen counties under his Kaifeng Mansion reported severe drought and no grain harvest.So he decreed, tax exemption.He is very benevolent, but suddenly someone reported to his father that Kaifeng Mansion exaggerated the disaster situation and the tax exemption was because the crown prince wanted to buy people's hearts! Zhao Guangyi was alerted immediately, and he ordered an immediate investigation to find out the truth.Zhao Heng started to tremble. His father was still calling out half a year ago, "The heart of the world belongs to the prince, where do you want me to be?" ! But God is sorry, Zhao Heng's luck is very good (he has been very good all his life), and the officials sent to investigate reported that the disaster is basically true, especially one of them said this--Your Majesty, the disaster is very serious. The tax breaks for these counties are not enough. Zhao Heng almost shed tears, he firmly remembered this person - Wang Qinruo.Look at this time again, Wang Aiqing reappeared and brought him the badly needed good things.Expensive but not expensive, not expensive at all, but both the people of Li and himself have received great favors because of Wang Qinruo's little idea. Wang Aiqing, how can I not love you, you are really my sweetheart! This time, Wang Aiqing entered the palace with a brand new statistical form.This form is so new that it can be said that even the ink on the paper has not dried completely.But if you want to see the original data behind it through it, you will be choked to death by the dust accumulated over the years. The earliest ones are decades old. That is counted from the founding of the Song Dynasty, the unpaid land taxes accumulated by states and counties all over the country every year.This number accumulates year by year, and the interest increases, which is super huge.Seeing it, a ruthless fact is placed in front of us.It is said that the Song Dynasty was a paradise on earth of abundance and happiness, so as of this time, is it the era of Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi?Aside from Zhao Kuangyin's illustrious martial arts, don't go after Zhao Guangyi's civilized society anymore, just look at the real life of the common people. Wang Xiaobo's uprising was true, and what Lu Mengzheng said was also true-"I have seen that many miles outside the capital, many died of hunger and cold..." This was the situation Zhao Heng was facing at that time. No, the emperor ascended the throne and wanted to reward the common people without any money! Moreover, these numbers are just the tip of the iceberg floating on the water, and the ones below are even bigger and harsher.Because there are old debts, they will be recovered. Since ancient times, "the poor who are not afraid of debts are afraid of the heroes who collect debts." Fan the door of a commoner's house, four words: "Extortion." If it is more vivid, change another four words: "Knock the bone and suck the marrow." Not only evacuate your home, but also arrest your family members and put them in jail. The concept of what is meant by family ruin and death is clear.And this kind of hard life has no head at all, every penny you earn is not yours, because of debts!Unpaid debts! In response to these disadvantages, Wang Qinruo presented this form to the new emperor.Zhao Heng immediately understood, joy from heaven, what kind of favor could be better than this?Everyone is very happy: the common people are debt-free and light-hearted, and their hearts are stable from now on, and they feel that life has hope in the bottom of their hearts.As far as the imperial court is concerned, they don't spend a penny of copper money. These old debts are absolutely impossible to collect. If they are canceled in one stroke, there will be no loss to him, but it has already achieved the effect of being kind to the people! Brilliant creativity, it is simply turning decay into magic.But it was so good and so sudden that Zhao Heng couldn't believe it.He asked: "Wang Aiqing, why didn't the late emperor do such a good thing? Don't you know?" Wang Qinruo solemnly replied: "No, the first emperor knew everything, and this is reserved for you to bestow favor on the subjects of the world." This kind of answer made Zhao Heng very warm. He did not take credit for the credit, but it was all due to the emperor, and it was the previous emperor. The people in the world not only praised the virtue of the current emperor, but also felt the kindness of the emperor's father.What a good courtier! Zhao Heng ordered that the whole country immediately forgive this debt completely, and release all the prisoners who were imprisoned because of this debt.The final statistics show that the land tax owed was 10 million yuan, and the number of prisoners released was more than 3,000. Huge numbers, how many people have benefited from it.This is how Wang Qinruo stepped onto the stage of history. He did this to benefit the king, the country, and the people. It was impeccable, but after he walked out of the palace, his smile must be very proud and a little cunning. Why is the ink still wet on that form? Did it just get done?There's an inconspicuous little secret here. Wu Bingu, the judge of the three provinces.This person is Wang Qinruo's colleague, and they all manage money and food for the Song Dynasty.It's just that Wang Qinruo is a novice. After Zhao Heng ascended the throne, he was grateful to him for his help back then, so he was promoted from Kaifeng Mansion to Sansi Province.On this day, the old and new colleagues were chatting, and Wu Bingu said, alas, the people are suffering, and the emperor is also suffering. Xiao Wang, you are new here. I don’t know that there is no way to pay back so many old debts. I am going to play the emperor tomorrow. Chen owes it... Wang Qinruo summoned his cronies to work overtime that night to verify the amount owed, and rushed to the palace early the next morning to hand in the form.That's it, it's all good, if a little cheesy. But everyone in the world knows, "If the result is good, everything will be fine." Regardless of Wang Qinruo's reputation in the future, even if he is a traitor, there is a question here-what is the so-called traitor?No matter how he treats others, if he is always loyal to the emperor, is he considered a traitor? It's a bit complicated, and I'll talk about it later. Things went step by step, and after giving the people all over the world a welcome ceremony, Zhao Heng began to refine his leadership team and policy agenda.Someone advised him to be steady, and what he said was extremely classic-"The profit is not a hundred, and the law will not change." And "Don't belittle the newcomers, this is the first." In a word, without a hundred times the benefits, just don't change the rules at all.And those who are sharp and quick (frivolous), those who have no qualifications (newcomers), and those who are active in work (happy events) are all driven aside, and they are not used.This is the most important. The people who said these words were headed by new bosses such as Lu Duan, Li Zhi, and Li Hang. Others were just the opposite. They summed up a sixteen-character mantra for the new emperor-"If you keep the old rules, you are not doing your best. If you can make new laws, it will be a miracle." How about (Si is not perfect), you have to establish some new rules yourself, so that things can be done beautifully. These sixteen characters come from Zhang Qixian, the former prime minister, and Wang Yucheng and Tian Xi, the two most prominent speech officials in the Taizong Dynasty. Who do you listen to?The characters on both sides are not trivial, not to mention that Zhao Heng has told his courtiers since he ascended the throne that starting from him, even if the emperor makes mistakes (the emperor has made mistakes), the policy is confused (the current affairs or losses), and the military fights (military wars). Zang or not), folk interests, you can say whatever you want, say it freely (blunt speech and extremely admonishing), even if it is written in an official document, with an arrogant tone and disobedience to the emperor (anti-shu Yiwen), it doesn't matter. Well, when a problem arises, who do you listen to and who do you not listen to?This is a completely twisted opinion, which is irreconcilable. But Zhao Heng has his own way, I listen to everyone, but I don't listen to everyone.His personality is like this, it looks like a ball of cotton, white and soft, and feels comfortable to the touch, but be careful, don't really press down hard, there is a needle inside, it will hurt very much! Zhao Hengduan sat on the emperor's throne, his mind was very clear. Everything in the world is nothing but military, political, civilian, and financial.The first two must be stable, he listens to the prime minister and the political affairs officer; the latter two are obvious, if you live in the old way, you will almost die of poverty, so it will not change? Zhao Heng changed as soon as he said he wanted to, and the whole country became ecstatic with joy and miserable.But let’s start from the beginning, first let me say that it must be stable. Politics has been handed over, and Lu Duan, Li Zhi, and Li Hang who stepped up to the front are all highly respected people, and they cannot be more stable.What's more, taking Lu Duan as an example, he has been an official for more than 40 years, starting from the magistrate, prefecture, and prefect of the magistrate, to the central department's Guozi Zhubu, Secretary Lang, Zhihong Wenguan's works Zuo Lang, Zhishiguan , and then sentenced to the Taichang Temple, the merit tester Wailang and the censor knew miscellaneous affairs, served as a judge in Kaifeng Prefecture twice, and then sentenced to the Taichang Temple and the Liyuan, as the Shaoqing of Dali, and finally as the privy direct bachelor, and then jumped to the top The prime minister of the country.Such a lot of long-winded official names were almost repeated by the officials of Song Dynasty from low to high. There was nothing he didn't understand, and no one should try to hide anything from him.In the final analysis, he is only a little bit worse than Du Yan, who is known as the most brutal and terrifying "official nemesis" in the history of the Song Dynasty. Such a person sitting in town is enough to stabilize the world.What's more, there is Er Li.Forget about Li Zhi, but Li Hang is absolutely no small matter.Other officials are praised by their subordinates and admired by future generations, but he is praised by his colleagues, admired by Kou Zhun, Wang Dan and even the emperor himself! Besides the army, Zhao Heng invited the biggest god in the Song Dynasty army——Cao Bin, the former privy envoy.Let him return to his original post and become the number one soldier again.For him, don't mention any merits or crimes. With his unique qualifications and his kind and generous prestige, he should be able to appease the army in the post-Zhao Guangyi period. Especially in the frontier, don't forget why Cao Bin lost the title of privy envoy in the first place, that is, he used his own salary to distribute "monthly money" to the border officers and soldiers in private.There are clear grievances and grievances in the army, and Zhao Heng's choice is absolutely correct. But unfortunately, this is definitely only the second choice, and the most suitable person is dead——Pan Mei.The eyes of soldiers are sharp, and the likes and dislikes of the emperor have nothing to do with them. The strongest heroes are their idols.And the most important point is that Pan Mei is the first spouse of the new emperor, and Zhao Heng's first wife is Pan Mei's daughter. It's a pity that the daughter died before her father, and disappeared without leaving any children. Perhaps this is fate. What would happen if Pan Mei lived for three more years? ! After all, history will soon prove how important the army is to Zhao Heng. But the most important thing is people and wealth.As early as in the Three Kingdoms period, Sun Quan once said that gold, jewelry and shellfish are rubbish, they are only useful to the common people and officials, but to the king, they are all waste copper and rotten iron. So he can give Cao Pi a lot of pearls and ivory, but he doesn't give any of the land and people south of the Yangtze River! Zhao Heng is also like this at this time.Let’s talk about the people first. Less than two months after he ascended the throne, he specially issued an imperial decree, saying: “Sufficient food is the first priority for national affairs.” Let the common people have enough to eat first. The slogan is very loud, and it is too annoying to do it.First of all, he had to redefine the whole world into fifteen roads, and then subdivide Shuchuan into four roads, and set the whole country as eighteen roads.Afterwards, all the first-level officials of the "Road", that is, the transfer envoys, were recalled to the capital one by one, and they personally told them: first, from now on, all kinds of unnamed labor will be reduced, civil construction will be suspended, and the farmers will have a little time; Confiscate them when they are free, and let them reclaim wasteland, and plant mulberry and silkworms. The state fully supports them, and the land that has been opened will not be taxed until the fifth year. However, water far away does not quench thirst nearby. No matter how good the policy is, the common people will starve to death if they cannot wait.Then think of a way.The method is called "pre-purchase silk".To put it simply, before planting every spring, when the farmers have consumed all the seeds and grain after a winter, the state will first lend them some money, and then pay them back in the autumn harvest. The method is very good, and the farmers welcome it.But pay attention, this is the very beginning, everything will change, as long as it has something to do with money. So talk about money. If the state manages money, it must first manage the system.The chief steward of money and food in the Song Dynasty was named "Three Secretary".I believe everyone is familiar with it, but the word "three" is very particular.There are two explanations. First, it refers to the heads of the three departments of Yantie Division, Duzhi Division, and Hubu Division. Then there is one person, called the Three Division Envoys; second, it means that each of the three divisions has One officer, so there are salt and iron envoys, Duzhi envoys, and household envoys.It is the three envoys. Is it messy?Policies are floating. According to needs, Zhao Kuangyin needs to be unified, so he is one person's "three envoys"; Zhao Guangyi hates the monopoly of his officials, so he separates and becomes three envoys. Zhao Heng is now giving way to the economy and the people's livelihood. As long as the command is unified, it will be effective as soon as possible, so the three divisions are re-administered to one person.Since then, it has been flexibly mobilized, and the status of the third division has returned to its original status, only half a level lower than the eastern and western prefectures. Neither the prime minister nor the secretaries have the right to interfere with its functions. But this is only equivalent to open source, and you must also save money!During the Zhao Guangyi period, there were so many exams, so many Jinshi were serving as officials, and the useful and useless yamen were asking for money. The terminal disease of the Song Dynasty's subjugation-"redundant soldiers, redundant officials, and redundant expenses" had formed. what to do?Soldiers are necessary now, not many are enough, but what is the need for redundant officials?What's more, if there are redundant officials, there must be redundant expenses. Zhao Heng's response is only one word - cut! From then on, for three or four consecutive years, the Song Dynasty abolished 195,800 redundant officials. All of the above are just the most macroscopic tasks of governing a superpower. The newly enthroned emperor Zhao Heng is so busy that he has no free time.There is a schedule of his work and rest left in history, which reads - every morning in the front hall to meet with the officials of Zhongshu, Privy Council, Sansi, Kaifeng Mansion, Judgment Court and other departments, and listen to the play , can answer immediately; After breakfast, deal with the affairs of each department and review the memorials until noon; Reading in the afternoon and arranging various routine activities, it is impossible for him to sit in the palace all day long; At night, the real tension comes.He had to listen respectfully and solemnly to the most famous Confucian masters in the world to give him lectures, study classics and history, and consult political gains and losses until late at night, just like when he was a prince or prince. He could not return to his bedroom until the night became deeper... Only then was his personal time.But it is a pity that his most mysterious and joyful enjoyment has disappeared. When he was a prince or prince, every night when night fell, he could quietly walk out of the majestic palace and go to the home of a courtier named Zhang Min.There was a study room full of books and candles, and a pretty and charming woman was waiting for him. No matter how many years passed, she still looked like his first lover. But at this time, it can't be done, people are different, and the beautiful woman has entered the palace in a legitimate way.The love is still the same, but she is no longer the simple and clever girl from Shuchuan. Day after day, Zhao Heng worked so conscientiously, never daring to be lazy.Because he knew a fact, his family was in trouble.At this time, he stepped forward, and the sea and the sky were so bright, but he stepped back, and there was a cliff behind him. If he fell off, there would be no more Song Dynasty in this world. Looking through history, at least in China, there is a rule that almost every dynasty has an extremely dangerous and difficult period in the two to three generations of monarchs after its establishment.This was true for Xia, Shang, and Zhou in the era of semi-belief in history, Qin and Sui in the stage of believing in history, and even the glorious and powerful super dynasty of the Tang Dynasty. After three generations, Wu Zetian came out. What is the actual cause?Is it just a coincidence?In other words, at this stage, every dynasty starts to calm down from the excitement of the founding of the country. The original powerful king and important ministers of the founding of the country have died, and the disadvantages have appeared. The subjects began to doubt, and both internal and foreign countries began to rebel. Will it be a complete failure? It's too complicated, and each dynasty has its own specific problems.But no matter what, now it is Zhao Heng's turn to bear all this in the Song Dynasty, and the complexity and danger of the situation he faces far exceeds that of Hu Hai, the second emperor of Qin Dynasty, Yang Guang, the second emperor of Sui Dynasty, and Li Zhi, the third emperor of Tang Dynasty... no matter how much he prays Calm, even if you want to close the door and spend a few days in peace, you can't do it. Because he has bad neighbors. In the eyes of Khitan and Dangxiang people, Zhao Heng, who is under 30 years old, is just a little boy holding a huge gold ingot and walking into the lawless downtown where dragons and snakes are mixed. The rich and vast land of the Central Plains is not his home. Karma, but the root of disaster for him! He was not his father. Even in the last days of his life, Zhao Guangyi was a ferocious tiger with broken teeth and claws, but still kept roaring and attacking. China, he gradually brought back the disadvantages, and the military victory and defeat in the last few years were basically the same. The test is coming soon, the first one is a puzzle.
