Angry hair rushed to the crown, by the railing, Xiaoxiao rain rested. Raise your eyes, look up to the sky and roar, and be fierce. Thirty meritorious fame dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moons. Mo waited idle, white young man's head, empty and sad.
Jing Kang shame, still not snow. The courtiers hate, when will they perish. Driving a long car to break through, Helan Mountain is lacking. Zhuang Zhi was hungry for beard meat, and laughed and thirsty for Xiongnu blood. To start from scratch, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky.
——Yue Fei | Man Jiang Hong
Not long ago, Zhang Yimou's movie "Manjiang Red" was popular all over the streets. The words of Yue Fei, the famous anti-gold general, are infinitely heroic and full of family and country feelings, which are once again known and praised by posterity.
The phrase in the words "Jing Kang shame, still not snow, courtiers hate, when will it be destroyed!" Showing a strong will to take revenge, Yue Fei was determined to shame the famous "Shame of Jingkang" in Chinese history.
The Northern Song Dynasty is a very peculiar dynasty, and many people attribute the Northern Song Dynasty to the Great Unification Dynasty, often referred to as the "Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties".
However, the editor believes that although the Song Dynasty reached a certain height of social and economic development, the country was very rich, and literature and art were also very developed, at best, it only achieved semi-unification and was not strong.
Why do you say that?
First, naturally because the Song Dynasty has never been truly unified in history, because at that time there were Western Xia, Liao, Jin and later Mongolia in northern China, and Dali in the southwest, which were not within the scope of the Song Dynasty's temperance, and even many countries fought the Song Dynasty without temper and were forced to call Chennagong, how to talk about unification.
Second, the land area of the Song Dynasty is smaller than that of the previous unified dynasties, except for the aforementioned countries, the most famous Yanyun Sixteen States in history, the Song generation has never controlled, until Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, the land lost for hundreds of years officially returned to the hands of the Han regime.
Third, the Song Dynasty was a rich country, but it was never a strong country, and its national policy of emphasizing culture and suppressing military force led to its military strength always lacking, and it lost many victories in foreign wars, which is simply not at the same level as other great unified dynasties in history. It is almost impossible to maintain the foundation of unity in the dynasty without martial arts, so it is inevitable that only half of the Song Dynasty will be left in the second half of the Song Dynasty.
This congenital calcium deficiency of the Song Dynasty became more and more obvious as the dynasty's qi was exhausted. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty was constantly worried about internal and external troubles, and at this time, it was necessary for the Ming monarch to come out and "Zhongxing" to prosper and reform and strive for strength.
But at this time, the reigning was the cowardly and timid literati emperor Song Huizong. Song Huizong, the emperor, if you want to talk about artistic achievements, it can definitely rank in the top three of all emperors in China, especially the "thin gold body" calligraphy he founded, which has been passed down through the ages.
Like Li Yu, the empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was really peerless to be a literati, and he was pitifully born in an imperial family. Song Huizong not only did not have great talent, but also was incompetent in governing the country, and he was as timid as a rat when the enemy came invading.
When the Jin soldiers came to attack, they crossed the Yellow River and approached Kaifeng. Song Huizong was directly frightened, and did not think about how to call for resistance, but quickly passed the throne to his son Song Qinzong, throwing off the responsibility.
A soldier instigates one, will instigate a nest. As the head of state, Song Huizong did this, and the army's combat strength was naturally not much better, and it was defeated under the attack of the Jin army.
As a result, soon the imperial city was captured, and the difficulty of Jingkang occurred. The Jin people were originally a barbarian tribe in the northeast region, and when they entered the city, they were like devils entering the village, looting everything.
They not only robbed money and grain, but also captured the imperial family of the Northern Song Dynasty, including Emperor Hui Qin, as well as 3,000 concubines and palace maids to go north.
After arriving in the Jin Dynasty, Emperor Huizong of Song and Emperor Qinzong of Song were canonized by the Jin Dynasty as the insulting Duke of Dude and the Marquis of Chongdu, respectively. However, the humiliation was far from over, and the Jin court decided to hold a sheep-pulling ceremony for the Northern Song royal family and harem concubines.
The sheep-pulling ceremony required the Northern Song royal family and concubines to be naked, only wearing a sheepskin, and then tied a rope around their necks, and being led by the Jin people like sheep and allowing the people of the Jin Dynasty to watch and comment.
During the Song Dynasty, the peak of the development of Chinese ritual thought, many women committed suicide because they could not bear this naked humiliation. Empress Zhu, the last empress of the Northern Song Dynasty, committed suicide after the sheep-pulling ceremony in order to preserve her dignity.
In addition to Empress Zhu, there was also a royal woman, whose fate was even more tragic. She is Zhao Fujin, the most beloved daughter of Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, Princess Kangfu.
Song Huizong had many children in his life, but among his daughters, his favorite was this Princess Kangfu. Princess Kangfu not only looks like a sinking goose, but also has outstanding talent.
So that she was both talented and beautiful, and was given the name "Maode Emperor Ji" by Emperor Huizong of Song, and her reputation was famous in the Northern Song Dynasty. Later, he married Cai Juan, the fifth son of Cai Jing, the favored minister of Emperor Huizong of Song, and after marriage, the two were also Qin Se and Ming, raising their eyebrows together, and were very affectionate.
In the shame of Jingkang, Princess Kangfu originally belonged to the daughter of marriage and was not included in the list of captives. But who knows, her personal maid was plundered by Jin Ren on the street, and in order to save her life, she "recommended" her master, Princess Kangfu, to Jin Jun, who was plundering beautiful women in Kaifeng.
When he learned that Song Huizong still had such a beautiful daughter, Jin Jun immediately forced Song Huizong to sacrifice his daughter to Jin Ren. Song Huizong was originally timid, and was so frightened by the Jin people, he directly drunk his daughter and sent her to the Jin military camp tent.
Since then, Princess Kangfu has been reduced to a golden plaything and ushered in a tragic fate. Her peerless face and the good name of Emperor Maude became her desperate charm.
After learning of Princess Kangfu's name, Yan Zongwang, a famous general of the Jin Dynasty and the second son of Jin Taizu Finish Yan A Bone, was very excited and named it to be included in his account for his own fun.
But the tragic fate of Princess Kangfu was not only that, after Yan Zongwang's death, Yan Xiyin, the prime minister of the Jin Dynasty, who had been coveting her beauty, immediately forcibly occupied her.
But this Yan Xiyin is very perverted and twisted, he not only plays with Princess Kangfu himself, but also often rewards it to many subordinates to humiliate together.
According to the historical records of the Jin Dynasty, Princess Zhao Fujin of Kangfu was tortured in the mansion of Yan Xiyin, and finally died due to the "rupture of the valley road", and her fate was extremely miserable.
So what is a "valley road rupture"?
The so-called "valley road" in ancient times is what modern people often call "anus", and "valley road rupture" means death due to "fissure". Although the historical record has only mentioned the death of Princess Kangfu, it is a small statement.
From this, we can still see how much physical and mental torture the Northern Song Princess endured at that time, until she had such a painful death.
Here we can't help but sigh that in ancient times, even if women were noble princesses, they were still powerless to resist the tragedy of the country and their own fate. In addition to the fate of women, we should learn the lesson of the defeat of the Song Dynasty, a rich country and a strong army are the way to be truly strong, only rich and not strong can only be a lamb to be slaughtered.
