One Piece of Song Dynasty

Chapter 363 Repentance

On February , Li Gang went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and presented a memorial, requesting that the gold-lettered plaque be replaced. Because since the Jin people invaded, they have been intercepting the horns, which contain the imperial gold plaque. The Jin people are likely to follow suit and make gold-lettered plaques. To avoid future troubles, it is recommended to replace the vermilion gold plaques with yellow lacquered vermilion plaques. Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty approved the memorial.

On the same day, another official reported that when the Jin invaded Hebei, Liang Fangping and He Guan sent elite troops to control Hejin. When Liang Fangping was defeated, he abandoned the river and refused to defend it. He Guan looked at the wind and escaped. Today, He Guan has been seriously injured and died under the awning, while Liang Fangping was not formally sentenced and was only detained in Kaifeng Mansion.

Li Gang suggested that Liang Fangping be killed for not guarding the Yellow River, and Song Qinzong agreed. As a result, Liang Fangping was beheaded under the Maozuo Bridge that day. He was the eunuch who was reused as a military commander by Song Huizong after Tong Guan and Tan Zhen.

After Li Bangyan was dismissed, Zhang Bangchang served as Dazai again. However, Zhang Bangchang went north with the Jin people and never returned, so the post of Dazai was actually still vacant. Wu Min once suggested that Li Bangyan be reinstated, but he was violently attacked by Tai student Shen Changqing and Xuezheng Wu Ruo.

Song Qinzong was also considering the choice of Dazai, and at this time he valued Xu Churen very much. Xu Churen once knew Daming Palace as a bachelor of Guanwen Palace. During his tenure, he was known for his integrity. He belongs to the main fighting faction. When the Jin invaded the capital for the first time, he stored grain and grass in Daming Mansion and actively prepared for war. He also gathered more than elite soldiers and planned to go to the capital to serve the king. When the Jin people retreated, he once wrote in a memorial: "It is advisable to ambush the troops, dredge them, and attack half of them, and they will definitely succeed."

Song Qinzong heard that Xu Churen was "mature and promising", so he had summoned him to Beijing a few days ago and appointed him as the Minister of Zhongshu and entered the decision-making circle. Wu Min figured out Song Qinzong's intentions and thought that his majesty had the idea of ​​​​"relying on him as prime minister", so he suggested that Xu Churen be appointed as the grand prime minister.

On this day, Song Qinzong summoned Xu Churen and asked him to state his opinion. Xu Churen said: "There are many who died in Rongdi. The imperial court was willing to pay a lot of money to repair it, but why did it donate three towns to His Majesty to inherit the world from our ancestors? How could a square foot of land be used to protect and enshrine the two ancestors?" The mausoleum, Zhongshan is the first seal of His Majesty. The Yi and Di are deceitful and unpredictable. Now they want to rob the alliance of hostages, and there is no need to invade and insult them. But if you see them coming back and believe in them, you will go too far."

Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty said calmly: "What you say is true, and what I mean is true."

Wu Min also said to Qinzong of the Song Dynasty: "There is no reason to abandon the people to the Yi and Di in order to preserve the clan society."

From then on, Song Qinzong changed his vacillating mentality and decided to "not abandon the three towns."

On March , Song Qinzong made further adjustments to the decision-making level of the imperial court: Zhang Bangchang was removed from the post of Grand Prime Minister, Xu Churen was appointed as Grand Prime Minister, Wu Min was appointed as Shao Prime Minister, Li Gangzhi was appointed as Privy Councilor, Tang Ke was appointed as Vice Minister of Zhongshu, Geng Nanzhong was appointed as Shangshu Zuocheng, and He Li, a Hanlin scholar He was appointed Youcheng of Shangshu, and Xu Han, the Zhongcheng of Yushi, also knew the affairs of the Privy Council. Mei Zhili and Chen Guoting served as Zhongcheng of Yushi.

Li Zhe was removed from the position of Minister Youcheng and appointed as a bachelor of Zizheng Palace to promote Nanjing Hongqing Palace. Yu Wenxu was removed from the Privy Council position and appointed as a scholar of Zizhengdian Zhiqingzhou.

Two days later, Li Zhe, Zheng Wangzhi and Li Ye, the representative figures who were envoys to Jinying to negotiate peace, all resigned from their posts and were given to the outer palace for the reason of "missing their words to serve as envoys".

From an ideological point of view, Song Qinzong certainly wanted to work hard to govern the country; from a behavioral point of view, Song Qinzong could also be said to be working hard at night, diligently engaged in government affairs, and wary. Jingkang Lu said: "Since he came to the throne, he has written dozens of letters every day, and I have read them at night, and I am not tired of them. There is a good thing that I don't know, and I know it. , front desk consultation.”

From March th to th, for three consecutive days, Song Qinzong went to Jinling East Palace, Jinling West Palace, Yangde Temple, Ningxiang Pool, Zhongtai Yi Palace, Youshen Temple, Xiangguo Temple and other places to burn incense and bow. The blessing of the ancestors' spirits in heaven has made the country turn from crisis to safety. Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty also issued an edict, ordering others to watch in Beijing to build a Zhaijing Temple and commemorate the fallen soldiers and the murdered people.

March th should be an unforgettable day for Song Qinzong. On this day, he issued an edict to the three commanders of Hebei and Hedong, namely Zhan Du, the pacifier of Zhongshanfu Road, Chen Tao, the pacifier of Gaoyangguan Road, and Zhang Xiaochun, the pacifier of Hedong Road, asking them to "stick to the three towns." This is tantamount to openly denying the alliance with the Jin people. The edict said: "I have accepted the great responsibility entrusted to me by the Supreme Emperor. Fourteen days after I took the throne, the Jin people's army has reached the capital. The minister suggested that donating money and silk to cut off the land can alleviate the disaster. The spirit of Lai Zongmiao's defense was not lacking, so the army retreated after a long time. However, the Jin people have repeatedly made alliances, and they can not be saved in the end. Now King Su crossed the river and went north without returning. Nianhan went deep and fell into Longde in the south. Before reaching the third town, Yuan Yue was defeated first. He also passed through broken prefectures and counties, killing and looting soldiers. Girl. I have spent so much time pursuing the blame, but it hurts so much.

The emperor of the Yuan Dynasty was ordered to negotiate with Li Bangyan to release the temple. Li Zhe, Li Ye, and Zheng Wangzhi were all deposed, and Zhongshi Dao, Yao Gu, and Zhongshizhong were ordered to assist the three towns. The size of the ancestral land cannot be compared with that of others, and the location of the mausoleum must be protected. I vow to stick to it. I can't bear to be trapped in these three towns to steal a moment of peace. Be of one mind with the people, protect the territory forever, broadcast to China and foreign countries, and make my wishes known. "

The content of Song Qinzong's edict was quickly passed to Li Xin by Gao Ping. Li Xin looked at the secret message in his hand and said: "I agreed to the Jin people's peace treaty and now regretted it. It is really stupid. Now the Jin people have another excuse to invade. , it looks like I’m going to Tokyo again.”

Liang Hongyu asked: "The official is going to Tokyo again this time."

Li Xin nodded and said: "Yes, the Jin people will invade the Song Dynasty again soon after seeing that the officials have gone back on their word. I'm afraid the Tokyo city will be in trouble this time. I'm going to kidnap Zhao Fujin's sisters. We can't let them." They fell into the hands of the Jin army. Besides, although Zhao Fujin is the sister of the current official family, she is already married and will be of little help to me in taking over the Song Dynasty. I need an emperor who has never been married."

Liang Hongyu snorted coldly: "Oh, just kidnap a woman, you don't have to find so many excuses."

Li Xin coaxed Liang Hongyu and said, "Okay, no matter how many women I find, you will always be my first lady."

After deciding to go to Tokyo again, Li Xin quickly summoned six people: Old Man Zheng, Liu Fa, Guanshi Zhai, Ruan Xiaowu, Liu Yi, and Zhao Fei. Li Xin said: "I need to go back to Hui'an again recently, and I want to go back to Hui'an before I leave." Let me tell you something, Uncle Zheng, Liu Yi, Manager Zhai, and Zhao Fei. The next step in the city building plan to revitalize Han City is Fenglin City, fifty kilometers south of Hualien City, and Tongxiao City, fifty kilometers south of Hsinchu City."

The four of them stood up and clasped their fists and said, "Yes, Lord."

Li Xin said to Liu Fa: "As the city building area moves southward, our control area will continue to expand southward. Liu Shuai will leave this matter to you."

Liu Fa replied: "Yes, I understand."

Li Xin turned to Ruan Xiaowu and said: "Fifth General, there will be refugees in Dengzhou area starting from the end of this year. When I contact Tianxiang Tower in Dengzhou, the transport fleet will be divided into two by the end of the year. Some of them will The ship is going to Dengzhou to pick up the refugees, so I will leave this matter to you."

Ruan Xiaowu cupped his fists and said, "Yes, I have the order."
