In 1127 AD, the capital city was destroyed, and in the eyes of the Jin people, the Song Dynasty was thus ended. The reason is also very simple, not only the capital of the country is forced, but the Song Dynasty royal family has been swept away, and they also set up a puppet Zhang Bangchang as emperor, let him manage the original territory of the Song Dynasty, but as a vassal state, to pay tribute to the Jin State.
This idea was quite clever, but there were two things that surprised the Jin people. First, Zhang Zongchang did not want to or dare to be emperor at all, on the surface he obeyed the requirements of the Jin people, but in fact he urgently needed to shake off this hot potato and cede the throne to the Zhao family. Since ancient times, there have not been many people who do not want to be emperors, but Zhang Zongchang can indeed be counted as one.
Another thing is that when the Jin people captured the Zhao Song Sect Chamber and returned with a full load, there was still a fish that slipped through the net, that is, Zhao Zhao, the ninth son of Emperor Huizong of Song. Originally, Zhao Zhao's status among the princes was very low, but because he recruited troops outside, he finally escaped the disaster. After the fall of Beijing, Zhao Zhuo proclaimed himself emperor in Nanjing, and later set the capital at Lin'an and established the Southern Song Dynasty.
Later generations divided the Song Dynasty into the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, and Zhao Zhuo was considered to be the founding emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty. In fact, at that time, there was no such statement. Zhao Zhuo continued the Song Dynasty Guozuo, and did not think that he had the merit of creating a foundation, but his territory became smaller and he lost a large number of rivers and mountains.
The Southern Song Dynasty eventually existed for 149 years and was destroyed by the Mongols. Regardless of how Emperor Gaozong of Song was attacked by posterity for Gou An, he did continue to live for the Song Dynasty for 149 years. This is certainly his personal credit, but it is also related to the covenant between the two women.
Emperor Gaozong of Song's father, Emperor Huizong of Song, was also able to become emperor by accident, and he was originally crowned as the Duan King, and it was impossible for him to reign in the world. Although Zhao Tuo's elder brother Song Zhezong was wise, he died at a young age, leaving no son behind, and the throne could only be inherited by his younger brothers. However, Song Zhezong was not only a younger brother of Zhao Tuo, but also a half-brother. However, under the interference of Empress Xiang, the imperial court eventually honored Zhao Yao as emperor.
We have reason to believe that the reason why Empress Xiang praised Zhao Yao so much was that she had laid out the game early. She chose many palace girls to serve Zhao Yao, and Wei Shi, the mother of Song Gaozong, was one of them. However, Webster is not beautiful, does not have much culture, and is said to have enuresis, which makes Zhao Tuo very dissatisfied.
Even after Emperor Huizong of Song ascended the throne, Wei Shi did not receive any rewards. However, when Wei Shi was in the palace, he formed a deep friendship with Qiao Shi, who was also a concubine. They had a good relationship, and the two even worshiped as sisters, and swore an oath to Heavenly Covenant, and if anyone could get the favor of her husband, she would not forget to bring another person.
Xiao Jue has written about the harems of many dynasties, and there seem to be many such examples, but at this time, the words cannot be taken seriously. Originally, in the interaction between people, it is easy to share hardships and hardships, and it is difficult to share wealth and wealth, not to mention the sensitive issue of serving a husband and wife. There are so many pampering, more to others, and the rest for yourself is naturally less.
The most typical example is that when Han Gaozu was in power, Bo Ji, Lady Guan, and Zhao Zi'er also swore an oath to The Heavenly Covenant. However, when Lady Guan and Zhao Zi'er were successively favored by Han Gaozu, they laughed at Bo Ji's incompetence and petlessness. It wasn't until Han Gaozu heard it and felt that Bo Ji was pitiful, that he and her had a spring breeze, and finally gave birth to Emperor Wen of Han.
Qiao Shi was completely different, and she later became a big hit and became a noble concubine of Emperor Huizong of Song. However, she did not forget her agreement with Merriam-Webster. It was under the strong recommendation of Qiao Guifei that Song Huizong reluctantly came to Wei Shi. It was for this reason that Wei Shi gave birth to King Zhao of Kang. It is no exaggeration to say that without that oath, without the sisterhood of Qiao Guifei, whether the Southern Song Dynasty could be established or not really had to be marked with a question mark.
However, Qiao Guifei's ultimate fate was pitiful. When Jing Kang changed, she was taken captive to the Jin Kingdom to be humiliated along with Zhao Shuo's birth mother, Wei Shi. Later, after the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty signed the Shaoxing Agreement, Wei Shi was released back to the Southern Song Dynasty. Before leaving, Qiao Guifei gave all the gold she had hidden to Webster. When she was on the trip, she held up her wine glass and wept bitterly: My sister went back this time, that is, the empress dowager, but unfortunately, my sister and I will never return, and the guest will die here.
The meaning of this statement is probably to let Merriam-Webster go back and find a way to pick himself up. However, Webster did not express his position, but only cried with Qiao Guifei. Concubine Qiao Cried again and said, "When my sister returns to the south to be happy, don't forget that I am not happy here!" ”
Webster left, and just a year later, Princess Qiao guifei died in the Northland.
