"The Son of Heaven guards the gates of the kingdom, and the king dies in the community"
This sentence is a commentary on the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the integrity that future generations should expect the supreme ruler of a dynasty to have, but to say that the reason why the Ming Dynasty has such a integrity, I dare to think that it is the Song Dynasty, of course, some people will feel very puzzled, why the two dynasties that the eight rods cannot fight, will have such a source? And this has to start from the Northern Song Dynasty, the Song Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, and also have to explore the truth that the Song Huizong was captured by the Jin Dynasty for 9 years and gave birth to 14 children.
First of all, there are many chinese people who do not want to explore in depth, because some histories really do not need to go deep to feel angry enough, one of the paragraphs is the Song Dynasty, whenever the Song Dynasty is mentioned, it is said that it has money and words, and then everyone had better stop talking about it, because then we have to talk about their military, and when it comes to their military, they think of their heavy literature and light martial arts, and think of the second to last emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Huizong.
Emperor Huizong of Song must have been a great product of heavy literature and light martial arts, and later generations said that he "can do everything, but cannot be the ear of the king" is not wrong at all, so what will Emperor Huizong of Song do? Born in 1082 AD, he will chant poems against the wind and flowers and snow moon, you see Baidu Encyclopedia has listed a column of "artistic achievements" for him alone, saying that his thin gold body, saying that his 2786 flower and bird paintings, saying that his poems, books, paintings, and printing are integrated into one of the brush strokes, Song Huizong He is a proper partial youth!
In addition, he is also a sports all-rounder, what polo bow step riding pills are all handy, at that time there was a work "Pill Classic" wrote: "To the Song Huizong, Jin Zhangzong, all love to pound the pills, fill with tips, hit with colored sticks, crush jade embellished, decorate the edge of gold edges, deeply seek the relics of the ancients, and benefit from its essence." That is to say, these sports have become small climaxes when Song Huizong comes, which shows that he really loves to play and is very good at playing.
And don't look at him so playful, causing many people to think that he is not in tune, but in fact he has a very good hand in power plots, just say that he and Empress Xiang, because Song Huizong relied on The Empress Dowager, when he succeeded to the throne, he inevitably had to be pinched by the Empress Dowager, he and the old party wanted to let Cai Jing go, but xiang Huizong had to forcibly stay in office, but he deliberately endured, endured the courtiers very angry, kept attacking the empress dowager, and finally forced the empress dowager to release power, song Huizong successfully borrowed a knife to kill people.
But what's the use of being able to write poetry, being good at sports, and being good at scheming? The former was a hobby that the country could enjoy without scruples, and the latter could only fight its own people purely, and could not deal with the biggest enemy at the moment, so in 1122 AD, Emperor Huizong of Song decided to renege on his covenant with the Liao State and wanted to join forces with the Jin people to retake Youyun Sixteen Prefectures, and the result was that Jin had been winning, while the Song Dynasty had been losing, and in the end it should have been his own territory and became Jin's pocket.
As a last resort, the good-looking Song Huizong decided to negotiate with Jin, how can the negotiations be negotiated? Are you expecting someone else to give up their position directly? So in the end, It was Song Huizong who spent a lot of money - the old coins and the delivery fee, and then took back 7 states, the seven states that were in ruins, and at the same time exposed to the Jin people the biggest drawback of the Song Dynasty, that is, the weak military strength, a proper soft persimmon, so the Jin people salivated.
In 1125 AD, Jin began to attack Song, the east and west two roads attacked, Song Huizong was panicked at the first time, there was no way to just think of escaping, if it were not for the fact that there was a person named Li Gang who presided over the overall situation at that time, it was difficult to say very much, because there was his main battle, and Song Huizong was dumb, and finally there was song Huizong Zen to Song Qinzong, of course, the most important thing was because Song Huizong himself wanted to want to, he did not want to bear the insult.
However, in the end, he could not escape the infamy, because Song Qinzong was not better than him, he ran to Jiangnan after his own Zen throne, extravagant as if he did not say anything in the imperial court, and even ordered the southeast not to rush to the aid of Song Qinzong, this move is not really unknown to him for what purpose, but it hurt Song Qinzong, causing Song Qinzong to no longer believe in such a pit cargo, so later Song Qinzong became a pit daddy, and the two were captured in the Jin Dynasty in 1126 AD, known in history as the "Change of Jingkang".
Song Huizong, who was captured to the Jin Dynasty, did not have a good life, I don't know why many people think he lived well, don't look at him in 9 years as if he had given birth to 14 children, but in fact, this is the shame that the Song Dynasty is difficult to say, why, you ask? Because the best way to defile the lord of a country was to defile his harem, these children were not Song Huizong's at all, but Song Concubines and Jin people, and later Zhao Zhuo spent a lot of time and energy ordering historians to cover up the facts.
And Song Huizong's hand play became a watershed between rich and poor, strong and weak in the entire Song Dynasty, and later it had nothing to do with Song Huizong, but because of Song Huizong, it became more difficult for the Southern Song Dynasty, since Zhao Zhuo also did not know that after killing Yue Fei, the treacherous Southern Song Dynasty faced the invasion of multiple foreign tribes, and was eventually forced to Yashan, 100,000 soldiers and civilians jumped into the sea to martyr the country, the sea was full of Han corpses, and the Yuan Dynasty became the first ethnic minority unified regime dynasty.
The Yuan Dynasty was particularly harsh on the Han people, the Han people were very depressed, under the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, who could not breathe, was as miserable as the Song Dynasty people who had been oppressed by the Yuan Dynasty, after he sat in the position of Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he did a very important thing, that is, to suppress foreign tribes everywhere, and during the Zhu Di period, shanhaiguan was Manchu, afraid of repeating the mistakes of the Song Dynasty, so in 1421 he chose to move the capital to Beiping and guard here, so there was a saying of "the son of heaven guarding the country's gate".
And even if there is a Yuan Dynasty in the middle, but it is also a Han Dynasty, how can the Ming Dynasty people not know the dismal end of Song Huizong? So in 1644, Li Zicheng attacked Beijing, and the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian did not make the same choice as Song Huizong, he first let his concubine hang himself, and then hanged himself on a tree, and before he died, he also wrote on the blue robe: "Ren thief splits the corpse, do not hurt the people." Later generations called it "The Death of the King".
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty's integrity of "the Son of Heaven guarding the gate of the country, the king dies in the society" comes from the Song Dynasty, it is the fiasco of the Song Dynasty and the 14 children of the Song Huizong who have not had one of themselves, and let Zhao Zhuo revise it hard, and the dismal end of the imperial family not talking about it, let the Ming Dynasty "take copper as a mirror, the crown of the right clothes; take the people as a lesson, know the gains and losses; take history as a mirror, know the xingxing", so there is the Ming Dynasty's "no Han peace and affinity, no Tang alliance, no Song Na Nian thin coins, and no brothers and enemies of the country".
