The king has his considerations.
This dynasty had a crown prince, and Zhao Heng was appointed as the crown prince in the fifth year of Zhenghe (1115 AD). Today's battle for the imperial reign is not that two princes compete for the crown prince, but that one prince and one prince compete for the throne, which is why the prince is at a disadvantage. Fortunately, this prince is deeply favored by the emperor, and the emperor's ministers' close ministers also openly support it for future interests. This makes the battle for the imperial reign, on the surface, Prince Yun has the upper hand, but it is not.
To abolish the legitimate and establish a illegitimate, you must first depose the crown prince. Otherwise, Prince Yun would be suspected of usurping the bad reputation. Prince Yun could not bear it, but unfortunately, the prince was very cautious. From the beginning of the emperor's intentional abolishment of the legitimate and establishing the illegitimate and establish a illegitimate and now, he has not caught any mistakes in the prince. On the contrary, the emperor repeatedly abolished the law for Prince Yun. Not only was the emperor criticized, but even Prince Yun's reputation himself was also affected.
Secondly, even if the prince makes an unforgivable mistake and wants to depose it, he must find an appropriate opportunity. The abolition of the imperial system is not an ordinary state matter, but the top national affairs that are related to the danger of the country. There are too many examples of the destruction of the country due to the imperial system. Such a major state matter must of course be implemented when the world is stable.
Therefore, the emperor could not find a reason to depose the crown prince, so he had to do the opposite, try to make achievements for the king, try to lobby the ministers in the court, and find ways to find the right opportunity. But he did not know that the world would not do as he wished. First, he planned to turmoil in the northern expedition, and then the rebellion of Fang La in Song Jiang was bad, and then the northern expedition had incredible twists and turns, and this western expedition was even abandoned halfway. Now that the hungry people are rioting, wars are on the rise, the Song Dynasty is in a deep crisis, and of course the matter of the imperial throne will be put on hold indefinitely. Even if there is no crown prince now, the emperor will not choose to establish an heir at this time.
All the emperor's efforts were not successful, and all hopes were ruined. If Prince Yun was not by his side and stayed away from him, the father and son gradually became alienated, and the prince took the opportunity to gain his favor, then Prince Yun would be finished. After the prince ascended the throne, even if he did not kill the king, he would force Prince Yun to death. The imperial rule was just a bloody knife. Whoever got stuck with this knife would either kill people or be killed by others, and there was no possibility of retreating without being able to escape.
But Prince Yun can no longer go back, and the emperor and Prince Yun are paying a high price for their greed and honor.
The emperor and Prince Yun first wanted to use the Hulie Mansion and the Northwest General to make achievements. However, things in the world interact with each other, and when they are used, they are used. If you use others, don’t you know that others are also using you?
In the battle for the imperial regime in Bianjing, what is needed is power and wisdom. Everyone fights with their wits and uses strange tricks. But here, power and wisdom become secondary, and strength is the first.\\Wan^Volume^book^house-wanjuan. Fuck the latest chapter reading // What makes the difference between warriors and civil officials is that they have force, and force can be transformed into power at the right time. This power backed by force is completely different from power based on wisdom, and its power is greater and more deadly.
The king now regrets it, regrets his frivolous decision. For a long time, in his eyes, the warrior was just a group of barbarians with simple minds and vulgar behavior. He looked down on them and looked down on them, so he jumped into this trap. He was confident that he had the ability to control these warriors. However, he was wrong. By the time he realized that he was wrong, it was too late.
Hulie Mansion and the Northwest Generalmen used the ** of the Emperor's Emperor's reign to pull him into a trap. The goal of this trap was to seize power, and to force Bianjing to redistribute power and interests. In fact, it was a threat and blackmail.
Of course, the emperors and civil servants in Bianjing would not agree. How could they damage their own interests to satisfy the military people? There would be a contest between the two sides. This contest would take time. But as time continues, the conflict between the two sides will intensify. This would force the emperor and civil servants to give up Prince Yun. The warriors would gradually reveal their true faces, revealing their bloody and cruel side. When the emperor and civil servants were unwilling to satisfy them, and when they had no way out, the warriors might take risks, support Prince Yun ascend the throne, split the Song Dynasty, and then monopolize the power.
It is this extremely terrifying consequence that led to the fall of the Song Dynasty. It made the emperor and civil officials very afraid and cautious, and dared not easily fall out with the warriors. They would use various methods to alleviate and eliminate this crisis until they once again stepped on the warriors firmly under their feet.
Officials believe that the country of Wu** and military people believe that civil officials are in trouble. These two irreconcilable contradictions have occurred with the riot of hungry people. Hebei and Shandong fall into chaos. The country's destiny is in crisis and explodes.
The conflict must be resolved. The solution is that one party must make compromises and concessions. The one party must make serious losses in its own interests and cannot bear it. Therefore, inevitably, this hungry riot has become a weapon of high and low for civil servants and military officials.
There are two solutions to the riots of hungry people. One is to suppress the rebellion by force, and the other is to modify the national policy and livelihood of the people. Both complement each other and are indispensable.
Military generals have the responsibility and obligation to lead the army to quell the rebellion. Civil officials have the responsibility and obligation to adjust the national policy. Now the military people are absolutely responsible. If you want me to quell the rebellion, then you can adjust the national policy, admit your mistakes, and give me some power and interests. Otherwise you will wait
.If the country is defeated, you will have nothing.
Of course, the officials will not admit that this is their own mistake, nor will they take responsibility. They will put the blame on the military, believing that the responsibility for the hungry riots that cannot be quelled was caused by the military. They will see the greed and bloody nature of the warriors more clearly, and will attack the warriors even more violently. Of course, civil servants will not be stupid enough to confront the warriors. They are wise and will come up with various ways to deceive and fool the warriors, and finally control the warriors.
Who will win in the fight between officials and military generals? Who will benefit? No one knows. In this unpredictable future, the dispute between Prince Yun and the imperial unification that arose from him has become an excuse for fierce fighting between the two sides and a gorgeous cloak. Even if the country is defeated, it is the responsibility of the emperor and imperial unification, not the responsibility of civil officials and military generals.
The king must come up with countermeasures for his survival.
Today's situation has formed a dead end. If you cannot return to Bianjing, you will gradually lose the support of the emperor and some civil servants. If you lose their support, the people in the northwest will force you more and more fiercely. When this contradiction accumulates to a certain extent, there will be a great turmoil in the Song Dynasty. This great turmoil was caused by hungry people, but the final decisive battle between the two sides were Northwest and Bianjing. The final result was split, catastrophe, and a great disaster for the Chinese.
Can it be avoided? Is there any way to avoid it?
Even if Prince Yun has a natural talent at this moment, he may not be able to think of a solution, because the current situation has been out of control. The riots of the hungry people will inevitably lead to the dispatch of troops to suppress the rebellion, and the people in the northwest will inevitably use this to threaten Bianjing. Bianjing will not accept the threats of the people in the northwest, so the riots of the hungry people will be out of control. When the country is in danger, how can the strong Northwest people bow to Bianjing? I will eat you and talk about it, and the situation will collapse.
The king has only one choice, tied with the Northwest people, but what about the future?
The education Wang received since childhood made him form a deep-rooted concept. If he wanted to ensure the stability of the Song Dynasty and to ensure that the Zhao family was passed down from generation to generation, the only national policy was to use culture to build martial arts. Military people were the root of the dynasty's defeat. Military people must be prevented from interfering in politics and never allowed military people to enter the center.
However, based on the current situation, if Prince Yun ascended the throne and became emperor in the future, these northwestern warriors would have to monopolize the power. Then, would Prince Yun have the ability of Taizu to release military power? Obviously, it is impossible. This leads to a series of questions: How can the king control these warriors? How can he continue to implement the national policy of using culture to build martial arts? How can he ensure that the Zhao family's country has been passed down from generation to generation?
Wang thought about it for a long time and kept thinking about survival, but it was not a result.
The people in the northwest seemed to have expected that Prince Yun could not hold on anymore. The commanders of Hulie Mansion and the generals of the northwest rushed to Taiyuan with the excuse of congratulating the New Year. This was a disguised coercion. People in the northwest wanted Prince Yun to hold on, don’t hesitate, let alone be afraid, the whole world is under control.
Wang was afraid that it was useless. After thinking about it carefully, he had no turning back, only one road was going to the dark.
The simple thing is that if he left the northwest, Bianjing would have to attack the people in the northwest. Bianjing could not attack the Hulie Mansion, but could attack the generals in the northwest. The generals in the northwest were hit in an unsatisfactory manner. The morale of the northwest army was sluggish, and Li Hu happened to leak down, and the entire northwest was Li Hu. Who will bear this responsibility in the end? It must be Prince Yun, so the emperor can't bear it, right?
It doesn't matter if the king dies, it's just a life, but the Song Dynasty is probably in danger, and the Zhao family's country may not be able to be saved. With Li Hu's move south, the Jin people, Xia people, and even the deserts may take advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to go south and plunder, so history will repeat itself and everything is over.
The king really has no choice. The only way is to put aside all his worries and work hand in hand with the Northwest people, first let himself ascend to the throne, and then slowly solve the problems of the Northwest people.
Wang figured it out, made a decision, came up with a solution, and then formulated a complete set of strategies.
This plan was buried in his heart and did not tell anyone. If this plan succeeded, he would be the emperor of the Song Dynasty and a generation of revival masters. If it failed, he would not bear the crime of usurpation for thousands of years.
The king adjusted his mood and was full of expectations for the future, but his face showed deep sorrow. He wanted to give the Northwest people an illusion, and he had to draw the bottom of the Northwest people.
In the cold wind, Prince Yun stood outside the mansion, wearing simple clothes, a shallow smile, a faint melancholy, steady and free and easy, with a kingly style.
Li Hu was the first to get off the carriage. He looked at Prince Yun, gently patted the dust on his body, and then looked around casually without moving his steps.
The king hesitated for a moment, walked forward, raised his hand from afar, "The King of Han has worked hard all the way..."
