Days are everlasting

In the 17th year of Jiading in the Great Song Dynasty, on the third day of the third lunar month, the emperor died of illness and soon collapsed in the Funing Hall in the palace.

When the official dies, the palace will naturally send someone to report outside the palace, so as to welcome the new official as soon as possible.

Although the current official family does not have a crown prince, they are full of plans. He has only one adopted son, Zhao Mian, who has been established as the prince. It is self-evident who the next official family will be.

However, after the death of the official family, the person who reported the letter in the palace did not go to the Wansui Lane where Ji Guogong and the prince Zhao Mian lived, but the palace of the late Yijing Huiwang.

The prince Zhao Mian was originally the heir of King Hui of Yijing, but after the official Zhao Kuo also died out, he changed from the heir of King Yi to the prince, and changed his name from Zhao Guihe to Zhao Mian.

Now that Zhao Mian is already a prince and has moved to Wansui Lane, of course the heir of King Yi in Yiwang's mansion is not him, but a down-and-out clan son.

The succession of the heirs of the Great Song Dynasty has always been full of disasters. After the two Huiqin emperors were captured in the "Northern Shou", the most direct royal family was only Gaozong Zhao Gou who went south to rebuild the Great Song Dynasty.

The direct royal family was wiped out. Because the Song Dynasty adopted a captivity policy for the clan, most of the clan lived in the "three places", that is, the capital Kaifeng, Luoyang, and Shangqiu. This caused most of the clans who lived in the three places when the Jin soldiers went south None of them escaped the murderous hands of Jin Bing, most of them were captured, and only a few lucky ones fled further south with Gaozong.

What is even more unfortunate is that Gaozong lost his reproductive function due to excessive fright, and his only son Yuanyi Prince Zhao Fu also died of fright at the age of three due to the negligence of the court lady.

In order not to give the chance of threatening the Song Dynasty to the Jin people who kidnapped a large number of direct royal families of Taizong's lineage, and because of his mother's persuasion, Gaozong decided to adopt the descendants of Emperor Taizu as princes, choose one to inherit the throne, and return the throne to Taizu. Ancestral line.

As one of Gaozong's two adopted sons, Song Xiaozong stood out and finally ascended to the throne of God.

Xiaozong himself was one of the few good emperors in the Southern Song Dynasty who were praised by others, benevolent and filial, but his descendants continued the troubled times of the direct royal family of the Song Dynasty.

Xiaozong had four sons and two daughters, all descended from the Guo family of Empress Chengmu.

Xiaozong's youngest son, Shao Yusu Wang Zhao Ke, died early. The eldest son Zhuang Wen, Prince Zhao Yu, passed away in the third year of Qiandao. Wang Zhaokai had two sons, Zhao Bing and Zhao Bing, but Zhao Bing died young, and Zhao Bing became King Yijinghui. He had an only son, Zhao Bing, who died at the age of three, so he had to adopt the clan son who was also a descendant of Taizu as his heir. If you don't care about the adoptive heirs, the line of Xiaozong's second son is also extinct; the last remaining is the official line, as Xiaozong's third son, Guangzong Zhao Dun, and the current official family. Yao is actually Zhao Kuo, the only son of Guangzong.

Zhao Kuo, the official family, was far more fertile than his father and grandfather, and had nine sons and one daughter, but all his biological heirs were unable to support them, and all of them died young.

Zhao Kuo had no choice but to follow the example of Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou and adopt his step-heir to inherit the Datong. He originally adopted the six-year-old Zhao Yuyuan as the prince, and later changed his name to Zhao Xun and established him as the prince. Unfortunately, Zhao Xun did not become the prince. The emperor's order.He died in the 13th year of Jiading, posthumously titled Jingxian.

Prince Jingxian passed away, and among the sons of the clan, the heir of King Yi was the closest to the emperor, so the officials who were unwilling to look for an heir to train him took Zhao Guihe, the heir of King Yi, as the prince, and changed his name, which made people feel uncomfortable. King Hui of Yijing was looking for his heir.

Prince Zhao Mian did not like Shi Miyuan, Prime Minister of Power, and once told the maid that he would demote Shi Miyuan after he gained power, but unfortunately, the maid whom he loved so much was chosen by Shi Miyuan according to his preferences. A spy who specializes in snooping news.

Shi Miyuan saw that the prince Zhao Mian was not pleasing to the eye, so naturally he didn't want him to gain power. In addition to slandering him in front of the official Zhao Kuo and wanting him to abolish the prince, Shi Miyuan also asked his subordinates to carefully search for a son of the clan to succeed him to Yijing. King Hui became the heir, and sent good friends to teach the new heir. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell what the plan is.

Of course, not many people know about the fact that Shi Miyuan secretly sent people to contact and befriend the heir of King Yi.

However, on the day after the death of the official family, when the new king takes the throne and accepts worship, more people will know about it.

In the palace, Shi Miyuan sent someone to King Yi's mansion to welcome Zhao Guicheng, the heir of King Yi, in a hurry. Empress Yang was shocked when she saw her. Even though her elder brother's two sons persuaded her, she still disagreed It is a proposal of Duke Jiguo to enshrine Zhao Guicheng as the prince and support him as the new emperor.

"The prince was appointed by the late emperor. As a queen, how can I disobey the late emperor's will casually?" Zhao Guicheng, who was brought into the palace, was not immediately welcomed into the palace, but was just waiting outside, when he heard Empress Yang in the palace say so.

Although the voice was so loud, Zhao Guicheng, who could hear everything clearly, did not have any special reaction, and still looked calm.

After a while, Empress Yang's two nephews, Yang Gu and Yang Shi, came out dejectedly: "Master, Madam, she still disagrees."

Standing beside Zhao Guicheng, Shi Miyuan, who was waiting with him outside the hall, smiled at him: "Erlang, wait here for a while, I'll go see the empress, and I'll take you in right away."

According to Zhao Guicheng's biological father theory, he is the first, and from the theory of Yi Wang who has passed away, because the first heir of Yi King has been adopted, he is still the first, only adoptive to be the prince of the deceased official family, his ranking Only then will he become "Erlang", Shi Miyuan said so, perhaps because he is full of confidence.

Zhao Guicheng nodded, with a very trusting look, which made Shi Miyuan feel good after seeing it.

To be honest, Zhao Guicheng was not in a hurry at all, because he knew that he would definitely be able to ascend the throne this time, and he already knew what his life trajectory would be like in the future.

Zhao Guicheng is not the original one, but a member of the Qinglong clan from a parallel world. After his accidental death, he was attracted by the young Zhao Yuju—this was Zhao Guicheng's real name before adopting him as the heir of King Yijinghui. The soul body was fused with Zhao Yuju's physical body, and the real Zhao Yuju's soul was also completely fused with him because they were too weak.

He occupied Zhao Yuju's body, and also inherited his karma. Thanks to his innate skills, Zhao Yuju fully appreciated Song Lizong Zhao Yun's life and the history of the rise and fall of the Song Dynasty.

The Qinglong family is the guardian of China. Although he is from a parallel world, this is also China. It is impossible for Zhao Guicheng to sit and watch Mongolia go south and wash countless Han people with blood. Moreover, after knowing the future, the original owner of this body also has a The wish is to change this ending, of course Zhao Guicheng has to choose to face the difficulties.

And thanks to his original talent, he is able to mobilize dragon energy, and he is a Song royal family in this life, as long as he ascends the throne, certain abilities can be used.

According to the historical records about Song Lizong Zhao Yun, he was extraordinary since he was a child, he had visions when he was born, and when he grew up, someone saw dragon scales on his body.

Zhao Guicheng didn't know if the original history book beautified the reason why Li Zong came to the throne. Anyway, in this world, he really showed dragon scales a few times, and the sequelae of time travel.

Because of this, his uncle and parents always believed that he was born extraordinary. After he lost his father and returned to live with his mother, his uncle took good care of him. Later, when Shi Miyuan's men were looking for the son of the clan, He came to Zhao Guicheng's uncle's house to avoid the rain, so when Jin Fengyulu met [bu], he turned like a sparrow into a phoenix. After Shi Miyuan's investigation, he was officially identified as the heir of King Yi.

Shi Miyuan is a treacherous prime minister. His influence on the Southern Song Dynasty can only be compared with Qin Hui and Jia Sidao. It can be said that it was thanks to Shi Miyuan that Zhao Yun was able to transform from an ordinary family in the distant branch to the heir of King Yi, and finally to become the emperor.

In any case, Zhao Guicheng and Shi Miyuan are on the same boat now, what will happen after he ascends the throne, and now he still has to rely on the help of Shi Miyuan!

After Shi Miyuan went in, he quickly persuaded Empress Yang. Although Yang Gu and Yang Shi next to him looked unbelievable, Zhao Guicheng, who also didn't hear the secret conversation in the palace, was very calm.

Even if it is just an analysis, he can also analyze why Queen Yang agreed to the proposal to abolish the prince Zhao Mian.

Empress Yang had given birth before, more than once, but all nine of the official Zhao Kuo's sons and daughters died young. She regretted that her own sons and sons were useless, so she had to work with the official family to choose a suitable heir to succeed her.

The first heir chosen by Empress Yang and the officials was the deceased Prince Jingxian Zhao Xun.

Compared with the later prince Zhao Mian, Prince Jingxian was very close to Empress Yang. When he was still a prince and had not been crowned prince, Empress Yang made great efforts for him to be crowned prince. He even reciprocated the crown prince, saying a lot of good things about Empress Yang in front of the official Zhao Kuo.

Prince Jing Xian was adopted by the official family as an adopted son at the age of six. When he passed away at the age of 29, he had a father-son and mother-son relationship with the official family and Queen Yang for more than 20 years.

Compared with Prince Jingxian, the relationship between the prince Zhao Mian, who had been brought up as the heir of King Yi, and Empress Yang was not very good, and he believed that Empress Yang and Shi Miyuan colluded to bring disaster to the court, and Empress Yang felt deeply about this prince In fact, it is very defensive.

Just look at how after the death of Prince Jing Xian, Zhao Mian became the prince, but as the only prince but has not been established as the prince, you can know what Queen Yang might think about him.

Zhao Mian not only made remarks about relegating Shi Miyuan after he took power, but also expressed dissatisfaction with Queen Yang, which can be said to be very unrestrained.

If Empress Yang is allowed to direct the new emperor's abolition by herself, she may still hesitate, but Shi Miyuan even set up the ladder for her, just wait for her to nod and agree to bless a title. How could Empress Yang not agree? Agree?

Thus, under the joint operation of Shi Miyuan and Empress Yang, Siyi King Zhao Guicheng became Zhao Yun who had been ordered by the government to become the prince in August.

Yes, according to Shi Miyuan's setting and announcement, in August, before the death of the official family, he had already intended to make his heir, King Yi, the prince, and made him the envoy of the Wutai Army in a decent manner. Cheng Guogong.

When Shi Miyuan and Queen Yang called him into the palace, Zhao Guicheng obediently knelt down in front of Queen Yang, and Queen Yang stroked his back: "You will be my child in the future, you have to work hard!"

What are you trying to do?Self-explanatory.

Zhao Yun nodded naturally.

Now that Empress Yang has passed the hurdle and the late emperor's edict has been concocted, Shi Miyuan contacted the party members in the court and asked them to accept that the new emperor is not the one they imagined. In the early morning of the next day, it was the fact that Zhao Yun, the new prince, was in charge of the palace.

From a remote and dilapidated clan to King Siyi, and then to the new emperor, Zhao Yun can be said to be a complete winner in life, but for the original heir to the throne, Zhao Mian, this reality is not so wonderful.

In fact, on the fourth day of the eighth month in the 17th year of Jiading in the Great Song Dynasty, the day after the death knell of the official's death came from the palace, it should be written about Zhao Hong, the Duke of Ji who was welcomed into the palace last night The whole person is bewildered.

Why is he still standing in the same place?Why did no one ask him to change into a dragon robe and prepare to ascend the throne?

All questions were answered after the first emperor's Empress Yang came out with Siyi King Zhao Guicheng who had already put on a dragon robe.

According to the imperial edict of the first emperor, the prince Hong Kaifu Yitong Sansi was granted the title of King of Jiyang County and Panning State Mansion, and the prince Yun succeeded to the throne of the emperor.

According to Shi Miyuan and Empress Yang, the prince Yun is the Siyi King Zhao Guicheng. When the first emperor was dying, he ordered the Siyi King to be the prince and inherit the great line.

Zhao Mian refused to accept it, but Shi Miyuan had dominated the government for many years, and Empress Yang was a powerful witness. As long as she did not change her words, then Zhao Yun would be the new emperor appointed by the late emperor.

In the end, in desperation, Zhao Mian could only forcibly "accept" the conferment of Jiyang County King, but compared with the throne he hoped for, this promotion can only be said to be worth the candle.

The new emperor ascended the throne, amnesty the world, Empress Yang was promoted to the empress dowager, and had the right to listen to the government behind the curtain specially invited by the new emperor. Soon, an edict was issued in the palace, the king of Jiyang County was promoted to King Ji, and the late emperor mourned for three days in the palace. Year.

Judging from the edicts of the new emperor alone, he himself is still reliable. If the process of ascension to the throne had not been too criticized, these edicts alone would have won a lot of praise.

The new emperor himself has been in Beijing as Siyi King for three years. There are not many rumors outside, but his reputation is very good. He has always treated the palace with respect and respected the scholars. He is a very likable person.

Shi Miyuan supported the new emperor, and the scholar-bureaucrats who did not deal with him in the court were afraid that he would hold the new emperor hostage by repaying his kindness. The new emperor probably understood this truth. very sober.

However, most of the emperors in the Song Dynasty were benevolent and indecisive. The new emperor's character should be nothing to say. We have to continue to watch how he governs the country.

The author has something to say: the protagonist becomes the emperor at the beginning of this volume, how is it, is it a surprise or a surprise?

The emperor of the Song Dynasty, um, had problems with heirs. It is said that it was related to the palace buildings and living environment. Anyway, there are quite a lot of extinct heirs.

When Renzong died, he passed on to his nephew; Zhezong died, and the throne was passed to his younger brother Huizong; in the Southern Song Dynasty, when Ningzong died, the throne was passed on to Lizong; brother.

In addition, there are many cases of single-line inheritance. Although many sons were born, Zhenzong only had one surviving son, Renzong; Yingzong's sons were mostly born before he adopted him into the palace; Only two of them survived; when Huizong was in power, the palace was rebuilt, and as a result, his son gave birth to a litter, and they were all healthy. Sad reminder.

Speaking of which, I must tell the little angels about my male god, wuli Renzong, his own son died, and his adopted nephew Yingzong was his son-this nephew's father was Zhenzong's son who died temporarily, and Renzong was not born yet Please come into the palace to be the prince’s spare tire, emmmmm, because Chui Siting—then after the cousin succeeded to the throne, he created a "Pu Yi" (the name of Yingzong's own father, King Pu). The so-called Pu Yi and Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty The ceremony is actually one thing, that is, even though I have been adopted, I still want to be my own father. Although the throne belongs to my cousin and his family, it is now my property. I want to Use it to supplement my own family, and leave it alone.

No wonder Renzong cried with the queen when he had to adopt a stepchild in his later years. The adopted son was missed by his own father!Judging from Pu Yi's incident, what Yingzong did was really dishonest.

It’s not that I took pleasure in other’s misfortune. Yingzong bullied Renzong’s orphans and widows in this way. There is retribution. Look at the records of Yingzong’s imperial tomb. Li You, an official in the Northern Song Dynasty, once visited Yingzong's funeral in person, and gave a very detailed description of the underground palace of Yonghouling and the funerary objects. Some antique books that I loved during my lifetime. As we all know, the emperor’s funeral, especially the situation of the emperor’s underground palace, is a royal top secret in all dynasties. Although historical materials such as will, official history, and actual records will give some descriptions of the emperor’s mausoleum, they must not It is very detailed, which is tantamount to providing first-hand information to future generations of looters, but Li You wrote a lot of details of Yonghouling into his notes "Song Dynasty Facts", which became important materials for future generations to study the historical facts of the middle and late Northern Song Dynasty , It has also become one of the starting points for future generations of looters to covet Houling." Yonghouling doesn't know how many times it has been robbed by tomb robbers, emmmmm, I don't want to comment.
