In ancient China, there were ten beautiful men, only two of whom were monarchs of the state, one was Murong Chong, and the other was Song Wengong, the twenty-fourth monarch of the Song Dynasty. Song Wengong was the son of The Son, the Son of the Song Clan, the Name Bao, and the Duke of Song Cheng, who was a wise man, and he never had a feeling of superiority for the people of the country at that time, and always treated him with courtesy. At that time, the Song Dynasty was still suffering from famine, and he took out all the grain to give away, and for the elderly over the age of seventy, he also sent precious food according to the season. Even if other brothers are not high,000, there are very few who are as wise as him to deliver food to the victims. Most of the royal children were concerned with the struggle for the throne.
The Song Dynasty had always been very rich and a great power, and many princes at that time tried to win him over, but he refused. Song Wengong became emperor not because of the succession, but because his grandmother took a fancy to him because of his beautiful appearance and wanted to have an affair with him, so she did a lot of things for him. This grandmother was not his own grandmother, but the wife of Gongzi Bao's grandfather, that is, Wang Ji, the sister of King Xiang of Zhou. Lady Xianggong helped him spread grace among the people, and at that time, Song Zhaogong ruled the country without a way, and the people naturally did not support it, while Gongzi Bao had been giving grace and was very popular with the people.
In 661 BC, when Si Chengdang died, Gongzi Shou resigned and did not do it, hoping to let Lang Yizhu do this work, and later Fengren said: "The national army has no way, my official position is close to the monarch, I am afraid of causing trouble, I dare not do it, but if I lose my job, I can't guard the family, my children are my representatives, let me die later, so although I lose my son, but I will not lose my family." Soon after this incident, Lady Xianggong wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to kill Song Zhaogong while he was hunting, and Zhaogong knew that he would go out with all the treasures in the future, and said, "Why don't you go to the other princes?" Zhao Gong replied, "I can't get the trust of the Doctor and Grandmother Jun, who can accept me?" Besides, if you have been a monarch, why should you be someone else's courtier, it is better to die." Zhao Gong gave all his treasures to the entourage and asked them to leave. Lady Xianggong had people tell Lang Yizhu to let him leave Zhaogong, but Lang Yizhu replied: "To be his courtier, you still have to escape his disaster, how to serve other monarchs in the future."
On November 22, 611 BC, before Duke Zhao arrived at the hunting ground, Lady Shuaidian pursued and killed Duke Zhao, and finally Gongzi Bao succeeded to the throne and was honored as Duke Wen of Song. The woman really did everything for the man she loved, not to mention that the man was still very handsome. Gongzi Bao was also forced to betray the monarch of equal color, and although he was grateful for everything his wife had done for him, he was still unwilling to respect morality. In 595 BC, because the Chu army besieged the Song state for five months, because it could not relieve the predicament, the Song state had no food to eat, and the country was in danger. Gongzi Bao sent Le Baoqi to the Jin Kingdom for help, and the King of the Jin State wanted to rescue him at that time, but was persuaded by the minister to come back, and instead sent emissaries to the Song Kingdom, so that Song Xian would not surrender.
By May, the State of Chu was finally ready to withdraw its troops, but it was persuaded by Shen Xi and Uncle Shen to withdraw its troops, but instead began to build houses in the Song Kingdom, and also farmed and shopped. Song Wengong was frightened and let Hua Yuan enter the Chu military camp overnight, and king Zhuang of Chu asked, "What is the situation in the city?" Hua Yuan said: "Split the bones of people as firewood, and exchange children for each other to cook", and the king of Chuzhuang saw Hua Yuan's honesty and finally withdrew his troops. This incident made the author feel as if Gongzi Bao did not have much strong ability to govern the country, in fact, he did not necessarily want to be the emperor at that time, it was completely forced by the lady. It was not until 589 BC that Song Wengong died and was succeeded by his son. I think that if Wang Ji hadn't made him emperor, he wouldn't have known how comfortable it would be.
