There is no truth in history, and there is only one truth left. Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Qiao mutinied, and the yellow robe was added, and he became the emperor overnight. After becoming the emperor, at the beginning, if you want the country to be calm, you have to make everyone obey your anger, but later you are comfortable. What are you doing when you are comfortable? Why are you going to be idle and have nothing to do? I went to the backyard to hunt birds, and I was happy to hunt birds, and some ministers asked to meet him, saying that there was something urgent, and the emperor said something urgent, and he hurried back.
When I came back, I saw that what came up was normal, not a big deal. The emperor said, "Are you so anxious about this?" The minister said, at least it's more urgent than you. In the Song Dynasty, the literati ruled the world, he really didn't scare the emperor, and dared to talk back to the emperor, take the current one, that is, we were wrong, or you are in a hurry, right? Zhao Kuangyin, he was a little unconvinced, not convinced, he took that casual wave of his hand, and knocked out the minister's teeth. We used to say that we had knocked out the tooth and swallowed it in the stomach, but the minister didn't do it, so he lowered his body and picked it up, and kept it in his arms.
The emperor looked at it and was surprised, and said, "What are you doing, what do you want to do?" Do you still want to sue me? Then what does this minister say? He said that I won't sue you, so how can I sue the emperor? But if there is a historian who records this, then the emperor will panic all of a sudden, and the people in the past, whether you are the emperor or the common people, you are afraid, and you know that there is a karma, and there is a very strong moral constraint.
So, the emperor said so, then you are also angry, say this, I am also on a whim, then so, I will pay you something, gold, then pay this silk, lose a lot of things, this matter is over. However, this matter is still recorded in the wild history, not the official history, and the official history will definitely not be remembered, is the official history good for the emperor? He does not remember it, the wild history records such a paragraph, whether this incident does not know, whether it happened, I don't know, but it very illustrates a truth, what is the truth? The Song Dynasty ruled the world with literati, and the literati in the Song Dynasty had a very high status, which shows this truth.
Why didn't this happen in other dynasties? It is because the Song Dynasty was very tolerant of the literati, and it was the national policy of the Song Dynasty to cultivate literature and martial arts, and the Song Dynasty ruled the world with the rule of culture, which is one of the historical dynasties of China, you don't think that the Song Dynasty was very small and lived very short, we know the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty for more than 400 years, Wang Mang in the middle cut it cleanly, the former Han Dynasty is the Western Han Dynasty for 220 years, the Eastern Han Dynasty for more than 190 years, adding up to more than 400 years, but the middle section is completely gone, and the dynasty has changed. The two Song Dynasty add up to 319 years, it is to rule the world with literati, just know such a truth, and do not emphasize whether this thing has really happened.
