Zhao Kuangyin, the grandfather of the Song Dynasty, was a good emperor, he treated the founding heroes fairly, used a cup of wine to release the military power to easily achieve the goal, and was also very kind in dealing with the descendants of the old master Chai Rong.
In Chinese history, after seizing the world, all the remnants of the previous dynasty were slaughtered. Maybe you will be curious, Zhao Kuangyin seized Chai Rong's Jiangshan, why not kill the Chai family and eliminate the troubles forever?
At that time, Chai Rong ordered Zhao Kuangyin to be the minister of orphanage at the time of his death, for this trust, in fact, Zhao Kuangyin should not rebel, at the beginning he was also a person without ambition, as soon as Chai Rong died, he became the only family, and the heart of desire began to expand. Thinking that the world is within reach, he has the intention of plotting against the world, so he painstakingly runs a drama, although nominally he is forced by the soldiers to add a yellow robe, but in fact this is Zhao Kuangyin has long been premeditated,
But this drama alone is not enough, after all, Chai Rong was once like a brother to Zhao Kuangyin, if Zhao Kuangyin openly rebelled, it would be an unkind and unjust villain. So Zhao Kuangyin thought of the previous monarchs, all those who usurped the throne did not treat the former dynasty kindly, and the final consequence was to lead to the rapid destruction of the country. Thinking of his hard-won Jiangshan, he was extra cautious about how to deal with the Chai family.
In order to appease people's hearts, after the Chen Qiaoyi Mutiny, Zhao Kuangyin led his army back to the capital and treated the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers, empress dowagers, and young lords kindly, thus winning the sympathy and understanding of the people of the world. It was very wise to do so, if Zhao Kuangyin had killed chai's descendants at that time, not only would his conscience be tormented, but he would also expose the lie that his yellow robe and body were forced to become emperor by soldiers, and he would have been spurned by eternity.
