One Piece of Song Dynasty

On the third day after the Jin army retreated on the East Road, that is, February th in the first year of Jingkang, Song Qinzong and the ministers held a meeting in Yanhe Hall. Li Gang proposed to immediately send troops north to escort the Jin people back to their division. He said: "In the battle of Chanyuan, even though we made an alliance with the Liao people and retreated, we still sent heavy troops to escort them, because they were afraid that they would have no scruples and carry out plunder. It has been three days since the Jin people left. At the beginning, they were called We crossed the river with boats and weirs, and now we have found out that they were tied to bridges to help the troops, and they were finished in one day. Yong sent a large number of soldiers to escort them with the story of Chanyuan."

Li Bangyan, Wu Min and others all expressed opposition to this. They believed that it was too early to send troops to escort at this time. If the two armies fought on the way, the Jin soldiers would soon come back and pose a serious threat to the capital again.

Li Gang insisted on his opinion, uncompromising, and very resolute. Whether he was afraid of Li Gang or really believed that what Li Gang said was reasonable, Song Qinzong approved Li Gang's proposal without hesitation.

On the same day, Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty immediately dispatched his soldiers and ordered Yao Gu, Zhong Shizhong, Zhe Yanzhi, Ma Zhong, Fan Qiong and others to lead the troops northward to escort the Jin soldiers back to the division.

At this time, Yao Gu, Zhong Shizhong, and Zhe Yanzhi had not arrived in the capital. They were still on their way to King Qin of Beijing. Yao Gu and Zhe Yanzhi were stationed in the southern area of ​​Hedong Road, Zhongshizhong was in the Huazhou area of ​​Hebei Road, and only Ma Zhong, Fan Qiong and other troops were stationed in the capital.

After receiving the military order, the officers and soldiers of the Song Army "acted enthusiastically." Li Gang quietly warned Ma Zhong and Fan Qiong: "If it is convenient and can be attacked, attack it immediately. The Jin people returned with a heavy load, and the baggage was heavy. It was impossible to drive the women captive, and they were very arrogant. Attack them, and they will definitely be victorious." reason."

The Song troops who were ordered to go north totaled more than people. They set off separately and " advanced in several directions " all the way north to catch up with the Jin people.

Only a few days after Li Bangyan resigned as prime minister, he unexpectedly returned as prime minister. After the news spread, there was a lot of discussion in the capital, and "people were shocked." The ministers in the DPRK remained silent, daring to get angry but not daring to speak.

On February , the secretary, Provincial Secretary Chen Gongfu, broke his silence and wrote a letter to impeach the Grand Prime Minister Li Bangyan, as well as his accomplices Wang Xiaodi, the Vice Minister of Secretariat, and Cai Mao, the Minister Zuocheng. He accused them of exercising power to harm the country and asked the emperor to remove them from their posts.

Chen Gongfu was the first in the imperial examination in the third year of Zhenghe, which is equivalent to the number one scholar in the imperial examination. He has an upright personality, advocates integrity, and dares to speak out. He said in his memorial: "I secretly saw that the country was invaded by strong soldiers, which shocked China and foreign countries. Your Majesty came to tens of thousands of people for the first time, and Cao Cao was so disturbed that he was deeply worried. The official and the official have misled the country to this point, and I am extremely sad and angry. I have foolish opinions and often make mistakes. If you don't avoid the punishment of death, God will listen to you, but your majesty will pay less attention.

I heard that Xianzong used one Peidu to level Huaixi, and Wuzong used one Li Deyu to level Zelu. Since ancient times, in order to eliminate bandits and restore success, one must reject public opinion, eliminate evil and evil, and trust loyal, courageous and promising talents, and then blame them for success. I heard that the border invaders were in trouble and were in danger at night. I once went to the capital hall to outline Chen Shouyu's strategy. I saw that all the ministers and ministers were suspicious. It has been a month to contain the matter, and no comprehensive measures are in place. Moreover, these few people have served the emperor for many years. They all flattered and obeyed the emperor's orders, maintained their salary and maintained their friendship. They did not even do anything to build the Ming Dynasty. They helped the Ming Dynasty, which led to the trouble today. It is not enough to rely on them to live in peace and have nothing to do. How can it be changed today by the people your majesty has re-employed today? Everyone sighs when talking about the people's hearts. Not only is it not enough to solve today's affairs, but it will also mislead your majesty and ministers in the future. He said that he worked hard the day before yesterday and praised your majesty. Ascending this throne, one must be a minister of the state, and one must know this. Hu should not only take on the full-time role, but also entrust military and state affairs. He will not let the public opinion change it, suppress the evil, and use his talents to the best of his ability to manage the affairs of the world.

As for the scholar-bureaucrats of the court, they were as generous as in the past, and they were not afraid of offending the powerful, so there were many who could be hired. However, the prime minister was unwilling to speak for His Majesty and often quoted people who were pro-party. I have heard that Your Majesty has accumulated great virtues in the East Palace the day before yesterday. He is humble, prudent and fearful, and cannot retreat. This is the way of the Son of Man. Today, it is the power of the king to rule over the nine things and care for all the nations. We must be brave enough to work hard, inherit the wisdom of separation, bring about great benefits, and eliminate great harm. The top is to inherit the ancestors' boundless mission, and the bottom is to comfort all living beings in the world. It is not advisable to adhere to the usual opinions, but it is difficult to do so without changing the father's ministers and his father's government. Kuang Taishang was very clear-minded and courageous, but once he repented, he realized that he had been misled by evil people, and he felt guilty for himself. Your Majesty is sincerely capable of accomplishing great things, dismissing those who used to do things in the past, and appointing true sages to govern the country. This is to flatter the Supreme Emperor's ambition. The emperor is so virtuous, why add this?

The ministers are neglectful and despised, and they often dare to talk about the ministers of the court and offend the power of heaven. They know that they will die, but they dare not cherish death. I wish I could say something. The husband, prime minister, and ministers are not his people, but the admonishment officials and censors can say so. Today, all the remonstrances in Taiwan are from the Prime Minister's disciples, but they are unwilling to speak out. The attendants could speak out, but today the attendants are too afraid to speak out because they cherish their fame and position. I am a minor official who has no care and sincere love for my country but does not know how to seek a career, so I speak for your Majesty. I don't even say anything, because your Majesty will never hear about the faults of the prime minister and ministers. How can the prime minister and the emperor discuss the governance of the world if they don't know about it? Moreover, when your majesty first came to the throne, you must be cautious about choosing people based on the relationship. I hope Your Majesty will stop doing this, and it will be a great blessing to the world."

In fact, Li Bangyan had already known himself. He knew that he was no longer suitable to continue to serve as prime minister. Two days ago, he wrote to Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty begging to be appointed official.

He said in the memorial that the emperor abdicated and handed over the country and the country to His Majesty. He was entrusted with the important task and he had vowed to devote all his energy to it. "I have been close to death many times and I will not avoid anything." However, his efforts and hard work have been misunderstood again and again, so that "today's gangsters are confusing the crowd, making noise and haste, and making no distinction between white and black."

He argued, "My main concern is to preserve the clan, keep the emperor safe, and cherish living beings. How dare I seek personal gain?" However, people did not understand and continued to slander him, thinking that he was a traitor. Now, "Everyone has heard that they have not yet been enlightened. They are afraid of gold and don't know how to evade it. Why are they tired of obeying the hearts of the people?"

On that day, Song Qinzong weighed the pros and cons and finally accepted Chen Gongfu's advice and removed Li Bangyan, Wang Xiaodi and Cai Mao from their positions in the court. Li Bangyan was appointed as the magistrate of Dengzhou, Wang Xiaodi was appointed as the envoy of Liquan, and Cai Mao was appointed as the prefect of Daming Mansion.

Li Bangyan asked to make up for the period of mourning. When his father died in the fifth year of Xuanhe, he only observed mourning for two months before being recalled by the court. According to Ding You's mourning system, he should observe mourning for three years. Song Qinzong approved the report and ordered him to go to Mingdao Palace in Bozhou.

Although Li Bangyan was the "prodigal prime minister", Song Qinzong had a good impression of him because Song Qinzong had received great help from him when he was the prince and at the beginning of his Zen throne. Now, under the pressure of public opinion, Song Qinzong had to let him step down. In order to save some face for him, Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty issued a special edict: "The Grand Prime Minister Li Bangyan has been in the government for many years. He has repeatedly expressed concern for the country and loves the people, so that he cherishes famous utensils, restrains them from being redundant, and does not offer them all. I am in the East Palace. At that time, I was familiar with the praises and praises, and when I was appointed, I was fully loyal. The Jin people violated the rules and built the Ming Dynasty. I only knew that it was urgent to benefit the country and provide for the army and the people, so I implemented them one by one. The people's aspirations could not be fully edicted, so they made peace and sang drums. The rumors are contrary to those of the day before. Evil people suddenly become resentful and angry, which is really shocking to hear. They have been broadcast to the palace and the temple where they are begging, and they have been broadcast to China and foreign countries. Believe it or not doubt it."
