What is history: it is the echo of the past to the future, the reflection of the future on the past. - Hugo
If you look at the historical picture of China, i think most dynasties and the establishment of the country can escape the bloody storm, however, the Great Song Dynasty is a very small number of beings on this picture scroll, because the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty not only did not set off a huge bloody storm, but even can be said to have smoothly and safely completed the establishment of the new dynasty.
It was not easy to form such an extremely rare situation, but Song Taizu was not the one who would be satisfied with putting on a yellow robe and claiming the title of emperor, and then he began to feast on the heroes and take this opportunity to regain all the military power, but Song Taizu did not calculate that he would forget a person.
Most people will also call the "Chen Qiao Mutiny" a "yellow robe plus body", because the Khitan at that time planned to unite with the northern Han army to jointly capture Zhou, and the capable Zhao Kuangyin was naturally the leader of the Zhou army, leading the generals to march north, preparing to fight the enemy and defend the country to the death. Just when Zhao Kuangyin and his generals arrived at Chen Qiaoyi, they changed the purpose of the attack and instead launched a mutiny, and the soldiers under them chose to put yellow robes on Zhao Kuangyin, which undoubtedly showed that the army intended to support Zhao Kuangyin as the new emperor. Immediately afterward, Zhao Kuangyin naturally returned the same way, led the army directly to Kaifeng, and forcibly forced Emperor Gong of Zhou to give up the throne, and also to be crowned with the good name of "Zen Rang". This is the reason and process of Zhao Kuangyin's smooth becoming the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.
So another key thing: what kind of legend is the release of the right to drink wine? This incident actually happened after the completion of the Great Song Dynasty, when the new emperor Zhao Kuangyin, who had already sat on the supreme throne, in order to pursue more extreme imperial power and prevent someone from defeating him with his own successful methods, he set up a banquet to invite meritorious heroes, and used the dual method of grace and threat to make the military generals who held the military power surrender their military power.
Looking at the Chen Qiao mutiny and the release of military power from today's point of view, it has to be said that Zhao Kuangyin is a person who coexists with schemes and means, and can make others have nothing to say when dealing with the interests of others. However, the clever Zhao Kuangyin simply left out his younger brother Zhao Guangyi. He not only sent him out to fight and recover the territory, but also gave Zhao Guangyi the right to fight. Years later, the generals in the army naturally believed in Zhao Guangyi.
Later generations of people have gone to study the sudden death of Zhao Kuangyin 15 years later, because on the night of Zhao Kuangyin's violent death, only Zhao Guangyi had drunk with him, and then he also inherited the unification. The most controversial discussion about this controversial son of heaven is whose life he is in, but because only one person has drunk with him before this, the name of murder is on his head
