=======================

"Don't irritate me, my patience is limited."

"So OK, what else to ask? If not, please let me leave."

Qin Su'er didn't ask again, but the tip of the sword stretched forward a little bit. Just this little bit, Xu Xian didn't dare to make a sound again.

The carriage drove into Dongming County, and Xu Xian expected that after arriving in Dongming County, the cool senior brother found an inn and did not leave again.

Xu Xian and Qin Su'er walked off the carriage one after another and arrived at Dongming County, which belonged to the capital and saw even more prosperity. Xu Xian looked at the intertwined crowd, his eyes were rotating.

There may not be many good things to follow this fairy. There is a cool jealous senior brother next to him, which will be even more unlucky.

Suddenly, Qin Su'er came to him, used her finger as a sword, and poked it with her finger, Xu Xian said, "What are you going to do?"

The slender fingers were retracted, and the snow-white fist opened, and a small ball flew out of her palm and flew into Xu Xian's mouth. The tender palm changed again, like a carpet, held his chin, and ticked it twice, and the ball entered Xu Xian's stomach.

It has a faint rogue fragrance and a strange smell.

"What did you give me food?"

"As long as you don't escape, there will be nothing." Qin Su'er said coldly again as before. Xu Xian thought that he was fish in the eyes of both of them. After Qin Su'er suffered a loss, she did not dare to treat Xu Xian as fish anymore.

I moved my luggage to the inn room, found a restaurant, and had a meal in the private room.

The private room is very well located, facing the window, and it is the season when September is about to harvest. The weather has not really cooled down yet, and people are coming and going on the streets, even lively.

The senior brother said, "Little Junior Sister, this is just a county town, it's so prosperous."

"It is close to the capital, of course it is prosperous, but the capital is a paradise for the rich and a hell for the poor. It seems that the Song Dynasty is full of flowers, but in fact its fortune began to decline more than ten years ago."

“How exactly?”

"This starts with the time of Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty. Shenzong saw that the treasury was empty and the country was unable to make ends meet. At the peak, the country spent more than 230 million yuan a year and had only more than 120 million yuan in income. He was forced to initiate reforms with the Prime Minister Wang Anshi at that time. Because he was anxious to accumulate wealth, he offended many powerful people and had relatives. At that time, several of the Cao family, Gao family and Xiang family were not satisfied with this reform. But later something terrible happened."

"The Song Dynasty established its capital in Kaifeng, and in terms of luck, it was destined to be a country that was rich inside but trapped outside. The Song Dynasty was trapped in the north in the Khitan and the west in the Western Xia. Therefore, Shenzong planned to manage the West first and then fight against the Khitan with all his strength. It was successful at the beginning, defeating Hehuang Tubo, but concentrated the whole country's strength to attack Xia, but encountered great defeat. Later, in order to compete for Yongle City, he was defeated again. In the two battles, not only did the people suffer, but more than 400,000 soldiers and civilians died."

"The Emperor Shenzong was so sad and angry that he died young. In addition, he had years of hard work. The Song Dynasty had a dispute over the candidate for the new emperor. Cai Que and other ministers believed that the prince was too young, so it was better to make his brother Zhao Hao the emperor. In addition, Empress Dowager Gao also liked this brother, and even had some trouble with Shenzong. The Song Dynasty also had a story about Emperor Taizu passing the throne of Emperor Taizong, so he prepared to support Zhao Hao as the king. But at this time, there was another minister, Zhang Dun, who was moved by the favor of Emperor Shenzong to him and opposed it with Prime Minister Wang Gui, and was determined to help the prince ascend the throne."

Qin Su'er said it very plainly, but you can imagine how many terrible stories happened behind these sentences back then.

"But at this time, Empress Dowager Gao suddenly focused on supporting the crown prince to the throne, and demoted Cai Que to Lingnan."

"Don't she like this son?"

"What she liked was Zhao Hao when she was young, and the kindness of Shenzong was very imagined. When the Western Expedition failed, and when many soldiers and people died, Shenzong actually got sick for the military and civilians. No matter how evil such a king was, it would be impossible to be evil. However, later Empress Dowager Gao appointed a frustrated minister named Sima Guang. He was not valued by Shenzong, but was suppressed by Wang Anshi. Therefore, after being valued by Empress Dowager Gao, he and his fellow students tried their best to discredit Wang Anshi and Emperor Shenzong. Many truths were erased."

"The Emperor Shenzong is not evil to his younger brother. When Zhao Hao became an adult, he would not be ignorant and would be influenced by his elder brother. That is, after he ascended the throne, he would continue to implement the policy of Emperor Shenzong, which was not something that Empress Dowager Gao could tolerate. But when the Emperor's grandson ascended the throne, she could rule the country from behind the curtain and overturn all the policies of Emperor Shenzong. Later, under her rule, the Song Dynasty slowly retreated, but under her careful management, there was no major problem. In this process, Empress Dowager Xiang and Empress Dowager Gao stood together."

"The crown prince fell ill soon, but there were some opposition voices at that time. She was a woman and dared not give the crown prince public medical treatment or even concealed the condition. Later, she passed away and the crown prince grew up to rule. This was Emperor Zhezong. He reappointed the ministers such as Zhang Dun, and the country had a new atmosphere again, and even defeated Xixia repeatedly. But at this time, the old party representing the powerful and powerful still had a great influence. Zhang Dun thought of a solution. When Empress Dowager Gao and Sima Guang erased the reforms, they did not hesitate to discredit Emperor Shenzong. So Zhang Dun initiated the Tongwenguan Prison and directly looked for some rude points in Empress Dowager Gao. He allowed him to find some evidence and wrote the imperial edict. If it succeeded, the fortune of the Song Dynasty could continue."

"But it was not successful. Just when Emperor Zhezong was about to issue the imperial edict, Emperor Zhezong found Emperor Zhezong's biological mother, Concubine Zhu, and said, "You must do this, so why should I do it for me?" Concubine Zhu ran all the way and found Zhezong, and begged Zhezong. Emperor Zhezong was a filial man and burned Zhang Dun's memorial in front of Zhang Dun, saying, "You don't want me to enter the temple of Grandpa Yingzong. However, since then, Emperor Zhezong's accumulated illnesses occurred one after another when he was young. When he was the worst, Concubine Zhu and Empress Dowager Xiang arrived at the same time."

"The Empress Dowager said, just now, the emperor ordered me to establish King Duan. Concubine Zhu was slapped immediately. Although Emperor Zhezong had no son, he had a younger brother, King Jian Zhao. Moreover, according to rumors in the palace, if the royal children were combined with the body of heaven and yin, they would give birth to wise children. The body of heaven and yin refers to a woman born in the year, yin month, yin day and yin, and one would only be produced in hundreds of years. At that time, it seemed that one was actually found from the people and let the officials send it to the palace. However, Emperor Zhezong saw that he was weak, so he gave this woman from the body of heaven and yin to his younger brother. It was strange that this woman actually gave birth to a child, and was born at midnight on New Year's Day. What a grand atmosphere."

"No matter that little prince, at least in a certain sense, it also represents a kind of expression of Emperor Zhezong's future inheritance. No matter what Emperor Zhezong said, it would be impossible to pass the throne to an outsider. What would happen? In the future, when he died, future generations will definitely cleanse his younger brother, mother, and nephew! Unfortunately, the prison in Tongwenguan could have defeated all the old party in one place, and took down the rights of the Empress Dowager Xiang, and even helped Concubine Zhu to the real position of the Empress Dowager Zhu. Concubine Zhu regretted it too late. At that time, Emperor Zhezong was not dead, but could not speak, and watched Empress Dowager Xiang turn black and white in front of him, and was so angry that he died."

"But some ministers disagree. The first one is Zhang Dun. He didn't think of the inside story. He just heard one thing. King Duan was frivolous and not enough to be a king. Queen Mother Xiang said something, "Old and no sons, all the kings are all concubines of the Shenzong. It is very important here. If Queen Mother Zhu is the queen mother, the one who represents the mother of the world is Queen Mother Zhu, not Queen Mother Xiang. Now Queen Mother Xiang is the queen mother. Zhang Dun has no words to say that if this is the case, then the eldest son will be the eldest son of King Shen, Zhao Quan. Queen Mother Xiang easily retorted, saying that King Shen is blind with one eye, and the king must be blessed, longevity, benevolence and filial piety, and King Shen is inconsistent. At this moment, another minister Zeng Bu coveted the position of prime minister and shouted, Zhang Dun, listen to the punishment of the empress dowager."

"The overall situation was finally decided. Then Xiang Hui promoted Han Zhongyan, Li Qingchen and Huang Lu, the sons of the former ministers, to reuse them, and stabilized the power. Zhang Dun gradually lost power and demoted to Lingnan and died in Lingnan. The kindness of Concubine Zhu's wife harmed her son and grandson. The next year she died of depression. Her second son, Zhao Li, was sent to Dali Temple for interrogation because of a bad thing at home. He was spared from the pain of prison because of a minister Jiang Gongwang's memorial. However, he suddenly fell ill and died of sudden death a few years later."

This is obviously abnormal. Concubine Zhu is in a bad mood and is understandable to die of depression. A normal living person, who is only in his twenties and does not have the childhood of Zhezong, can die from sudden illness? The weirdest thing is that he dies of illness, I don’t know.

"King Jian also has two sons. The eldest son Zhao Yougong has mediocre qualifications. The youngest son Zhao Youzheng, the child of the yin body, is very talented. It is said that he could read and write at the age of three. Unfortunately, he was able to take his fortune and his life was not long. When he was on a boat home to visit his mother, he encountered wind and waves. The ship sank. The mother and son drowned at the same time. Even the dead body was not caught. Zhao Yougong lived safely for a few years, but he died in a daze five years ago. Zhezong also had a sister who married Pan Yi, the great-grandson of Pan Mei, the founding hero of the Song Dynasty. The Pan family is a big family, but she even died of two sons. In addition, the two brothers and mothers had always been in a bad mood. She died of illness three years ago and was only thirty years old when she died. In other words, the lineage of Zhezong Zhu Concubine Zhu completely lost its inheritance."

"That King Duan is the current emperor. When he began to ascend the throne, Xiang Tai was able to barely control the government. Prime Minister Zhang Shangying was in power. Zhezong left a good foundation in the past, but there was no major problem with the Song Dynasty. Soon after, Empress Dowager Xiang passed away, and the emperor officially took power. He immediately referred Cai Jing and others..." Qin Su'er sighed quietly when she said this.

"Strictly speaking, Zhezong and Concubine Zhu are both good people in the traditional sense. After I heard all the truths about that year from my senior sister, I had doubts about whether to be a good person."

Just as I spoke, a fallen leaf floated and fell. The bleak autumn wind blew, blowing into the window and falling on the table.
