In the first year of Jing Kang (1126), at the critical juncture when the Jin army invaded the south on a large scale and the soldiers approached the city of Bieliang, Emperor Qinzong eagerly hoped that zhao zhao, the king of Kang in Xiangzhou, would raise an army to serve the king, and in order to act cheaply, he appointed him as the "Great Marshal of Soldiers and Horses". However, only a few months later, Zhao Shuo quietly added two words to himself, and "Terracotta Grand Marshal" was changed to "Terracotta Warriors and Horses Grand Marshal" in shame. Although the melon-eating masses do not have to pay attention to this historical detail, they must know more about the word "tianxia", and the meaning is very different from the past.
In fact, as early as the first southern invasion of the Jin army, some ministers suggested that "please take the prince as a marshal and govern the troops in Heshuo." How can a prince be a soldier? When Song Qinzong heard that there was a black line at that time, the matter was finally over; the Jin army made a comeback, and after crossing the Yellow River south, there were old courtiers who mentioned the old matter again, and Qinzong "hesitated" during which the Jin army had arrived at the city. King Kang was appointed as an envoy to The Peace Bureau, and for the second time he sent an envoy to Jin Ting. Traveling to Cizhou, Zong Ze urged Zhao To change his itinerary and stay in Xiangzhou. Soon, his confidant Geng Nanzhong "pretended to be in front of the emperor's holy will and raised the soldiers of the counties of Hebei to enter the guard", and Zhao Zhuo began to call on all parts of Hebei to raise troops to serve the king.
Seeing that the wood had become a boat, Song Qinzong pushed the boat along the water, sent someone to hide the wax book, and went to Xiangzhou in the middle of the road, bringing his own royal handwriting, saying, "Zhiqing rebelled against the King of Qin, but you can remove the Qing Terracotta Grand Marshal, Marshal Chen Henbo, Wang Boyan, and Zong Ze Deputy Marshal." Officials should act and be cheap. Between the lines, an important information was vaguely revealed, Zhao Cuo rebelled in front of the Qin King, and Song Qinzong awarded the post of "Great Marshal of Soldiers and Horses" after that, Zhao Cuo did not wait until he had the appointment letter before he began to make some moves. At first, he cut first and played later, creating a fait accompli and forcing Qinzong to recognize his Marshal's Office; when he really put on the cloak of legality and could order the place, Zhao Zhuo was not as active as before, and turned to taijiquan.
You can't blindly accuse Zhao Zhao of not being a thing, Song Qinzong is not a good bird, the brothers are two difficult brothers, the monk eats fat meat, fat (who) do not say fat (who)! Zhao Zhuo was sent out of the city as a hostage by Emperor Qinzong for the first time, and luckily escaped back; knowing the danger, Emperor Qinzong sent Zhao Zhuo on an envoy this time, how much hatred and resentment was there between the two brothers? Zhao Zhao did this, but also you have the first one, I have fifteen.
Even in the face of the critical juncture of the destruction of the country and the death of the family, any attempt to dilute the imperial power seemed to Be a heinous crime in the eyes of Emperor Qinzong. The Jin people violently attacked the city, and the minister Hu Tang was old and sparse, and Yun said: "The city is in danger." King Kang's northern envoys were not allowed to enter for the people of Heshuo, and Providence was also destroyed. Please pay homage to the Grand Marshal and summon the soldiers of the world to come to the aid. However, before Emperor Qinzong could express his position, some Zaichen raised objections, believing that the reward was too heavy, and it was difficult to use the word "big"! The eyebrows were burning, and the words were still being buttoned, and It was reasonable for Song Qinzong to appoint such a person as prime minister, and it was also reasonable to destroy the country.
Since he was stingy with a "big" word, how could he expect Zhao Shuo to do his duty to lead the soldiers and horses to serve the king? Under the efforts of Hu Tanglao, Qinzong added a "big" word with difficulty. Although this paper edict came a little late, no matter what, Zhao Zhao ordered all localities to have legitimacy from then on. Even so, Zhao Zhuo was still passively slacking off, and did not wholeheartedly lead his subordinates to the intention of the King of Qin, and the slogan of resisting jin imperial insults was loud, but people were getting farther and farther away from the Jin people.
Soon after, the city of Bieliang fell, and with the change of policy toward the Song from peace negotiations to seeking a different surname, the Jin people established Zhang Bangchang as emperor on March 7 of the second year of Jing Kang, with the state name Chu and the historical name pseudo-Chu. The Jin people then brought Hui and Qin father and son, and the looting proceeds were full of goods and returned to the north. The news reached Zhao Shuo's ears, and after some howling, he began to fall into panic. The establishment of the pseudo-Chu regime involved the legitimacy of the Existence of the Song Dynasty, and the presence of Zhang Bangchang posed a serious challenge to the legitimacy of the Zhao Grand Marshal's Office.
Immediately, some of the staff of the Shuai Government proposed to "hope that the great king will obey the story, and the great marshal of the world's soldiers and horses will be made to call on the four sides." With these two words, Zhao Zhuo could get rid of his current unfavorable situation, learn from the story of Tang Suzong Lingwu, and call on the four-way Qinwang troops in the name of "The Great Marshal of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses". With this pretext, Zhao Zhuo enhanced the legitimacy and appeal of his status, laying a solid foundation for his ascension to the throne.
Sure enough, soon there were ministers who took the initiative to persuade zhao to change the yuan and become emperor. Immediately, the clan office questioned the legitimacy of Zhao Shuo's ascension to the throne on the grounds that "Emperor An of the Former Jin Dynasty was covered with dust and the earth, and the great general Wuling Wang obeyed the system and did not change the Yuan". Zhao Zhao's confidants, on the other hand, vigorously refuted Tang Suzong's precedent of ascending the throne as "Grand Marshal of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the World", pointing out that Emperor Qinzong's appointment of The Great Marshal of the Terracotta Army to King Kang some time ago was a precautionary move.
During the Anshi rebellion, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was benshu, and Emperor Suzong of Tang, Li Heng, ordered all localities to raise troops and serve the king with the title of "Great Marshal of the Terracotta Army", and later Yu Lingwu took the throne as emperor. Although Li Longji was forced to lay off his post, Tang Suzong's contribution to reviving the Tang Dynasty was indispensable, and no one dared to deny his historical merits. Therefore, the subjects who opposed Zhao Shuo's ascension to the throne did not dare to insist any longer, and Zhao Shuo's ascension to the throne in Nanjing (present-day Shangqiu), that is, the son of heaven, was for Emperor Gaozong of Song.
