I will never be Renzong

Chapter 198
Time flies by like a white horse, often inadvertently, autumn ends and winter comes, winter goes and spring comes again, over and over again, year after year.

In the blink of an eye, it was the fourteenth day of the fourth month in the eighth year of Tiansheng.

“Another month of March is full of sorrow, and the gentle breeze fills my sleeves. I don’t realize that I am young and thin because of the decaying grass. Looking at the old courtyard, the green mountains outside the door are always guarding each other~”

In the Peach Blossom Pavilion, peach blossoms are in full bloom. Yeli Qiuyue gave birth to a daughter for Zhao Zhen a few days ago, and today is Zhao Zhen’s birthday, so Zhao Zhen conveniently held a family banquet in the Peach Blossom Pavilion of Yanfu Palace. Beside me, the other concubines prepared their own talents, or performed dances, played the piano, or sang songs, but the songs they sang were all ancient songs that Zhao Zhen's later generations liked to listen to.

Ancient beauties paired with ancient songs, I have to say it is really pleasing to the eye.

"Why do you need to say a few words, look back on the past withered grass and green hills~"

But seeing Ren Qing'er waving her colorful clothes, her silk hair dyed with ink, her dance steps light, her colorful fan flowing elegantly, she looks like a fairy or a spirit, coupled with her singing voice that sounds like an oriole, it gives people a great visual and auditory enjoyment.

"Good good!"

After dancing to a song, Zhao Zhen couldn't help standing up and applauding loudly, and then thought: This little girl has become more mature and charming.

"Daddy! Sister Ren's dancing is really good, can you let her teach Qingkong?"

Suddenly, two little girls in blue and pink stood up and ran to Zhao Zhen's side quickly, while the little girl in a pink palace dress ran into Zhao Zhen's arms first.

Zhao Zhen touched the flowing long hair of the little loli in his arms, and then said to another little loli who looked at him timidly: "Chuqing, come to daddy's arms and tell dad, do you want to learn too?"

"Yes, Daddy, Chuqing also wants to learn with Sister Ren!"

The little girl in blue first saluted Zhao Zhen, and then said something very humbly, before stepping forward to snuggle into Zhao Zhen's arms.

These two four or five-year-old little girls are none other than Zhao Zhen's eldest daughter, Zhao Qingkong, and second daughter, Zhao Chuqing. Zhao Qingkong is extroverted, while Zhao Chuqing is introverted.

Of course, in the past three years, Zhao Zhen has added two sons and two daughters.

In the early spring of the sixth year of Tiansheng, the beauty Ye Li Qiuyue gave birth to the third daughter of the emperor. Zhao Zhen named her Zhao Chuchun, and the Jin Dynasty named the beauty Ye Li Qiuyue as Yuefei.

In June of the same year, during summer and autumn, the noble concubine Li Binger gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor, who was named Zhao Wen by Zhao Zhen.

In the early summer of the seventh day of Tiansheng, Xiurong Zhang Yingying gave birth to the fourth daughter of the emperor. Zhao Zhen named her Zhao Chuxia, and Jin named Xiurong Zhang Yingying as Concubine Hui.

In the first month of the eighth year of Tiansheng, Jieyu Aya gave birth to the second son of the emperor for Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen named him Zhao Wu, and Jin made Jieyu Aya the concubine.

In the past three years, the political situation of the Song Dynasty has been relatively stable. Externally, the trade between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom continued to grow, but basically it was a trade surplus. A large amount of ginseng, fur, war horses, gold and silver, etc. were transported to the Song Dynasty by trade. territory.

A year or two of conflict broke out between Li Yuanhao, who occupied Ganzhou and Suzhou, and Li Chengwei, who occupied Liangzhou and Xuanhua, but in the end neither of them took advantage, so Li Yuanhao sent someone to ask for peace from the beautiful women who offered gold, silver and horses to the Song Dynasty. Zhao Zhen named him the uncle of Liangzhou, but he had to pay 3 taels of silver and [-] horses to the Song Dynasty every year.

Li Yuanhao readily agreed, and then sent troops to attack Guazhou at night, and occupied the sandbar within less than half a year. Recently, he was planning to attack Huangtou Huihe.

On the southwestern border, the Dali Kingdom is still shackling, and after the Zhancheng Kingdom received the weapons and armaments eliminated by the Song Dynasty, when Li Gongyun, the leader of the Jiaozhi Kingdom, died of illness and his four sons were vying for the throne, Zhanwang Zhadou personally led [-] people. The army broke through Jiaozhi Maling Prefecture in one fell swoop, wiped out more than [-] defenders, and then recovered all the land previously occupied by the Le Dynasty.

Then Zhadou sent troops to take Geographic Prefecture, and then attacked Buzheng Prefecture, but at this time, Li Dezheng, the second king of the Cochin Li Dynasty, had put down the rebellion of the three brothers, and then led an army of [-] to fight Zhadou In Buzheng Prefecture.

In the sixth year of Tiansheng, the war between the Cochin Kingdom and the Champa Kingdom lasted for nearly half a year. They were defeated in the first battle and were forced to withdraw from Buzheng Prefecture. In October of the same year, Li Dezheng took back Dili Prefecture. There are winners and losers, and the fight is evenly matched, and the war has fallen into a stalemate.

Officials who performed well in Tiansheng's five-year imperial examination, such as Han Qi and Wen Yanbo, were all sent by Zhao Zhen to Gansu Road as officials. Under the leadership of Gansu Road Governor Fan Zhongyan, after three years of running-in and training, they have successfully resolved Dangxiang Qiang governance issues.

On Guangxi Road, Governor Wang Kai led his troops to station in Yongzhou. Although Nong Quanfu was willing to surrender at first, he did not accept the imperial control. Later, Wang Kai died in Jiaozhi and Li Gongyun took advantage of the civil strife in Jiaozhi, so he directly entered Guangyuan Prefecture.

At first, Nong Quanfu just wanted to use the power of the Song Dynasty to resist the oppression of the Jiaozhi Kingdom, but what he always wanted was to accept the Song Dynasty's recruitment, and then continue to be the emperor of his barbarian tribe. At the beginning of the seventh year of Tiansheng, Nong Quanfu was in Guangyuan The state established the Changsheng Kingdom, claiming to be the "Emperor Zhaosheng", making his wife Anong the "Queen Mingde", and naming his son Nong Zhigao the "King of Nanya".

After Wang Kai learned about it, he personally led [-] soldiers to Guangyuan, and Nong Quanfu led more than [-] people to fight Wang Kai in the Black Elephant Cave. In the end, Wang Kai defeated Nong Quanfu, beheaded [-] soldiers, captured [-], and captured them alive. Nong Quanfu, and later his son Nong Zhigao opened the city gate and surrendered to the Song Dynasty.

In the end, Zhao Zhen still appointed Nong Quanfu as the magistrate of Guangyuan Prefecture, but deprived him of military power, and his son Nong Zhigao went to Beijing to study in the Imperial College, which was actually a proton.

After quelling the Nong Quanfu Rebellion, Zhao Zhen ordered Wang Kai to divide and disintegrate the various tribes and small countries in Jimi Prefecture, such as Yelang and Temodao, and finally in the autumn of the seventh year of Tiansheng, in the Thanks to the efforts of Wang Kai, the governor of Guangxi Road, and Yu Jing, the governor of Guizhou Road, all the small countries to which the Southwestern Yi belonged were wiped out.

Then Zhao Zhen established prefectures and counties, sent officials for management, implemented the same field system as Gansu and other roads, and planted potatoes and corn, which solved the Zhuang people's food shortage problem. Therefore, after half a year of governance, the locals no longer resisted the rule of the Song Dynasty. , when the time was ripe, Zhao Zhen began to build schools to teach local people how to read, read and learn etiquette, and the situation gradually calmed down.

On August [-]th of the sixth year of Tiansheng, the Yellow River burst in Chanzhou, and more than [-] people were displaced. Zhao Zhen urgently allocated a large amount of money and food for disaster relief, but unexpectedly there were unscrupulous businessmen and corrupt officials who tried to make money from the war. In the end, Zhao Zhen Zhen appointed Jiang Zun, a cruel official, as the supervisor and imperial envoy, and went to Chanzhou with Shangfang's sword.

Jiang Zun, courtesy name Congshi, was born in Changshan, Zizhou, and was a Jinshi in the third year of Zhenzong Xianping.He is good at handling political affairs, advocates strictness and fierceness in politics, and has killed many people.

After Jiang Zun took office, he quickly controlled the situation, but he also killed more than [-] officials and hundreds of businessmen who were hoarding. , Jiang Zun was withdrawn, and Bao Zheng was exceptionally promoted to serve as the Judiciary of Chanzhou to investigate the unjust case.
