Song Huizong Zhao Ji
01
In the fourth year of Xuanhe (1122), Song Huizong wanted to join Jin to destroy Liao, and then recover the sixteen states of Yanyun that were ceded to Liao by Shi Jingjiao of the Later Jin Dynasty, so as to achieve immortal achievements.
At this time, Yuwen jumped out to oppose and poured 3 scoops of cold water:
1. (Song) Today's war preparedness is lax, money and food are insufficient, take a woolen yarn to fight;
2. Since the alliance between the Liaoyuan and the Yuan, the Liao-Song Dynasty has been harmonious for more than a hundred years, and destroying the Liao is definitely not the best policy;
3. Liao was destroyed, we don't even have a buffer zone, if Jin takes advantage of the situation to go south, how can he resist his tiger and wolf army! This is really the way to take trouble!
"The strategy of using troops must first consider the strength and weakness, plan the hypocrisy, know the other and know the self, and the plan should be perfect. Now there is no means to deal with the enemy, and the treasury has been in danger for countless months, and the safety and survival are in one fell swoop, how can it be discussed lightly? Moreover, China has made peace with the Khitan, and now for more than 100 years, since it was invaded by the Jurchens, everything has been deferential to the Mu Dynasty. The Khitan of today's deferential house, uninhibited and enclosed, fenced for me, and far beyond overseas, leading the strong girl to really think that it is a neighbor... The fear of China's calamity has not yet been peaceful. "
These three reasons, in Song Huizong's view, were alarmist, so he kicked Yuwen out of the court and demoted him.
But Yuwen Xuzhong is still indomitable, and he has "built eleven strategies and twenty discussions".
Prime Minister Wang Huang suppressed it and did not report it: The group beating Daliao is too busy with work, so don't add to the chaos.
Finally, in March of the seventh year of Xuanhe (1125), the Great Liao was wiped out, and the land of Yanyun returned to the Song Dynasty.
The whole country celebrates.
But disaster is coming......
02
The next battle situation should be predicted by Yuwen Xuzhong.
Less than half a year later, in August of the seventh year of Xuanhe (1125), the Jin army divided into two routes and went south to attack the Song Dynasty.
Wanyan Zongwang's East Route Army moved quickly, breaking through Danzhou, trapping Jizhou, and capturing Yanshan Mansion.
Okay, the land of Yanyun that has not yet been heated in the Great Song Dynasty has been lost again.
Soon, Wanyan Zonghan's Western Route Army also approached Taiyuan Mansion.
At that time, Yuwen Xuzhong was the staff of the eunuch Tong Guan and was in Taiyuan City.
Hearing that Jin Jun had arrived, Tong Guan hurriedly claimed that he wanted to report the military situation to the boss in person, so he took Yuwen Xuzhong and ran away.
When Song Huizong heard the military intelligence report, he immediately panicked, and it took a long time to remember Yuwen Xuzhong's previous advice, and hurriedly asked him:
"For the sake of today, what can I do?"
Yuwen poked at the key point: "Your Majesty, we should carry out self-criticism and then eliminate malpractices in order to win back the hearts of the people." ”
Song Huizong agreed, drafted an edict of guilt, and issued it to the world.
At the same time, the line of fire promoted Yuwen Xuzhong to be a senior scholar of the palace and a pre-military envoy, and asked him to go out and transfer soldiers and horses from all walks of life to defend the Beijing Division!
However, the Jin army's iron cavalry was too fast, and without waiting for Yuwen Xuzhong to transfer soldiers and horses, they went straight to Bianliang City.
Song Huizong hurriedly threw the pot to his son Zhao Huan: The emperor's job, you can do it!
03
Song Qinzong, who had just ascended to the throne, played the old routine again, ceded land and paid compensation, and spent money to buy peace.
Wanyan Zongwang saw the silver in vain and promised to withdraw the army.
At this time, the main battle sent Li Gang to command the military general Yao Pingzhong to rob the camp.
As a result, the camp was defeated and the entire army was annihilated.
The Jin army blew up and besieged Bianliang City again.
There is no way, let's admit and sue for peace again.
But none of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty dared to take orders to negotiate peace.
At the critical moment, Yu Wenxu, who had just returned to Beijing after going out to transfer troops, stepped forward and went to sign the peace agreement, and the Jin army retreated.
Song Qinzong Longyan Dayue, Shengyu Wenxu signed the Privy Council, that is, the deputy minister of defense of the Great Song Dynasty.
As soon as the Jin army left, the Manchu civil and military forces of the Northern Song Dynasty immediately resurrected with full blood, regained their vigor, and impeached Yuwen Xuzhong one after another: You negotiated peace without authorization, cut off the three towns of Taiyuan, Zhongshan, and Hejian, and you lost your power and humiliated the country, and the crime was great.
Li Gang, the leader of the main battle faction, ridiculed Yu Wenxu in public as a villain who was greedy for life and afraid of death.
Spit stars drown people.
Song Qinzong also knew that it was difficult to make a mistake in public anger, so he smoothly pushed all the faults on Yuwen Xuzhong.
Yuwen Xuzhong, was "dismissed from Qingzhou, looking for a post and worshipping the shrine." In the first year of Jianyan, Shaozhou..."
04
In the second year of Jingkang (1127), the Jin army attacked the Song Dynasty again, and Tokyo Bianliang fell.
The Second Emperor of Huiqin and a number of clan nobles, princes and ministers were escorted to the icy and snowy north of the country...
At this point, the Northern Song Dynasty was completely yellow.
Yuwen Xuzhong escaped this catastrophe because of the release, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
In May of the second year of Jingkang, Zhao Gou ascended the throne as emperor in Yingtian (now Shangqiu, Henan) and changed the Yuan to Jianyan.
Southern Song Dynasty online.
How could the Jin army allow the resurgence of the Great Song Dynasty, and immediately raise troops to the south, search the mountains and seas, and carry out the No. 1 beheading operation.
Zhao Gou immediately gave up Yingtian and fled all the way south, sending people to negotiate peace while running.
The old question came again - the Jin army had occupied most of the Central Plains at that time, and it was very arrogant, who would dare to come out and take this headless errand?
The wind knows the grass, and the board knows the loyal ministers.
Who else could there be besides Yuwen Xuzhong?
Song Gaozong Zhao Gou was overjoyed and restored Yuwenxu to the post of senior scholar of the Imperial Palace, serving as the head of the diplomatic mission.
Before leaving, Zhao Gou also said bitterly: "My father and brother are suffering in the north, how can I bear it? Welcome back the second emperor, Qing and others are the heroes of our Great Song Dynasty!"
In this way, Yuwen Xuzhong adhered to the grand wish of "welcoming back the second emperor" and formed a team to send an envoy to the gold camp.
05
As soon as he arrived at Jinying, Jin Ren gave Yuwen Xuzhong a dismount:
Hmph, we are trying to arrest Zhao Gou and reunite their father and son, you just wait and see.
That means: You Yuwen knows each other in the void, and Ma Li goes back to the Southern Song Dynasty!
Unexpectedly, Yuwen Xuzhong is not an ordinary head iron:
"I was ordered to come north to pray for the second emperor, but the second emperor has not been returned, and there is no return. ”
It just so happens that Jin culture is backward, and a group of cultural people are urgently needed to govern the country.
As an expedient measure, Yu Wenxu stayed in the Jin Kingdom as an official...... Tired official to Hanlin bachelor, knowledge system and Taichang Temple, the founding prince of Hanoi County, Jin people also respectfully called him "national teacher", and later moved to the Ministry of Rites.
He wants to be a "lurker" and wait for an opportunity to rescue the second emperor.
But people will think that he has "lost his temper".
In order to endure the humiliation, he only dared to look at the southern homeland in the dead of night, and masturbated with poetry:
The night is full of frost, and sometimes I dream of my hometown.
It is rumored that the West River Pavilion has been built, and it is promised to be able to fatten Beihai sheep.
回首Two朝俱草莽,驰心万里绝农桑。
Life is a dead and idle thing, and you will not forget it.
Calmly face death, but also face fame calmly.

Soon, Yuwen Xuzhong learned an important piece of information: Jin soldiers wanted to attack Sichuan, the rear base camp of the Southern Song Dynasty, from Shaanxi, and then went down the river to break through the Jianghuai defense line in one fell swoop.
He hurriedly sent someone to send the information to the Southern Song Dynasty, "using wax books to sneak into the matter." ”
But for this information, the Southern Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers expressed doubts.
Fortunately, the generals fighting on the front line attached great importance to this information and suggested that Zhao Gou strengthen the defense of Shudi.
Sure enough, the Jin army raided Sichuan a year later, and was beaten all over the ground by Wu Jue, who had been prepared.
Soon after, Wang Lun was ordered to go to Jin to return the bones of Song Huizong, saw Yuwen Xuzhong, knew his loyalty, and returned to the court to report to Zhao Gou:
"Serve in the void for a long time, and keep the festival unyieldingly. ”
Zhao Gou grinned at this time, and ordered to promote his son Shi Ying as an official as a reward.
07
In the eleventh year of Song Shaoxing (1141), Wanyan Zongbi (Jin Wushu) mastered the government of the Jin State, and as soon as he ascended the throne, he engaged in "goodwill" to the Hanchen who was an official in Jin - Yuwen Xuzhong, Zhang Zhongfu, Zhang Zhongyan, Zheng Yinian, Du Chong, Zhang Xiaochun, Wang Jin, etc.
asked the Southern Song Dynasty government for his family, and called it a good name, so that he could serve Daikin with peace of mind.
But anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is to take hostages, and if you have two hearts, I will cut your whole family.
Yuwen Xuzhong hurriedly handed over a message to Zhao Gou: Don't let my family come to Jin.
But Zhao Gou and Qin Hui didn't dare to offend the Jin people, so they turned around and packed Yuwenxu's family and sent them to the Jin Kingdom.
08
Here's the question –
Didn't Yuwen Xuzhong always advocate that Song Jin negotiate peace? Why did Qin Hui stab him behind his back?
Things are different now.
When Yuwen Xuzhong advocated that the Jin and Song Dynasty negotiate peace, Jin was strong and the Song Dynasty was weak, and the Southern Song Dynasty faced a catastrophe.
And now, the situation of the Song and Jin wars has reversed, especially after Yue Fei defeated the Jin army, Wanyan Zongbi also intends to make peace.
Therefore, Yuwen Xuzhong began to oppose the peace, and instead preached to "recover the two capitals and smash the Yellow Dragon".
This is the reverse of the dragon's beard.
Zhao Gou has been chased and beaten by the Jin army since he was in power, and the days of fear have long passed.
Moreover, over the years, the armed forces in various places have continued to grow, which has threatened the imperial power.
This problem can only be solved if there is a truce as soon as possible.
If the Jin State makes Song Qinzong Zhao Huan the emperor in Bianliang, he will be embarrassed as the emperor.
It was mainly for this reason that at the end of the same year (1141), Yue Fei was killed.
Even the descendant Yue Fei was killed, and Yuwen Xuzhong was nothing.
Qin Hui told Wanyan Zongbi: Yuwen Xuzhong is a spy in the Southern Song Dynasty.
So, in June of the sixth year of the reign of Emperor Jin (1146), a terrifying scene was staged in Shangjing: more than 100 children of Yuwen's family were burned to death by fire...
09
After Yuwen Xuzhong's death, whether it was "Jin History" or "Song History", the description of him was mean and contemptuous.
"Jin History" said that Yuwen Xuzhong's death was because of his brazen and reckless Jurchen aristocrats, and he was killed by his crime of rebellion with literary prisons, and said that Yuwen Xuzhong's self-defense before his death also killed his friend Gao Shitan.
The History of the Song Dynasty copied the Jin people's account of Yuwenxuzhong's death, and never mentioned Yuwenxuzhong's latent deeds in the Jin Dynasty and his real cause of death.
Li Gang was extremely sarcastic about Yuwen Xuzhong in "Rumors", believing that he had no credit when he was an official in the Song Dynasty, and he could even be promoted repeatedly, and even directly erased his credit in the Song-Jin negotiations.
Until 25 years later, in the sixth year of Chunxi (1179), Song Xiaozong devoted himself to the Northern Expedition to the Jin Dynasty, in order to win over the Han people in the north, he deliberately rehabilitated Yuwen Xuzhong, and gave Yuwen Xuzhong to open the palace with the three divisions.
More than 50 years later, in the ninth year of Kaixi (1205), Song Ningzong gave Yuwen Xuzhong a small guarantee, and gave his son Shi Bao Mo Pavilion to be systematized, and gave the surname Zhao.
