Behind Lü Haoqing's sigh, looming is the empire's biggest political tumor - the civil servant party struggle, starting from Wang AnShi Sima Guang, the imperial literati have found two opposite political coordinates, either or this, not black and white, do not fight you and me to live and die comprehensively overwhelmed and incomprehensible, from the first time the Jin people surrounded Kaifeng to Nanjing Zhao Shuo ascended the throne, the literati who were in danger before the crisis still did not forget to pinch to death, but the old bottle was exchanged for new wine, and the main battle became the latest form of the new and old party struggle.
From the first day of its establishment, the Government of the Southern Song Dynasty undertook the "essence" of the political culture of the Northern Song Empire, and from the beginning of the dispute between Li and Wang (Huang), the top literati standing in the center of the court never lacked opponents.
When Li Gang stood in the court hall and said, "The subject only knows that there is a Zhao clan, but does not know that there is a Jin person", when he put himself in the highest moral place in one sentence, he did not think of a problem, although the fallen faction was saddled with political shackles because of its loss of control, another political criticism of the empire was about to begin.
Who will pay for the situation that caused the great difficulties in Jingkang?
The answer is that Cai Jingtong has been a new party member, and then tracing back to the source, Wang Anshi and the reform movement he set off are the culprits. Sima Guang and his Yuanyou party members stood on the political and moral high ground for a long time in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Li Gang, on the other hand, originally had an unclear relationship with Cai Jing's father and son, and after he came to power, his political views followed the path of the New Party's reformist faction (strict legal measures, proactive fiscal policy, and active military offensive strategy), and political enemies could easily lean him in the direction of the New Party clique.
Li Gangfeng's fiery implementation of the New Deal, he did not know that the anger under the court in Nanjing was being hidden, whether it was Wang Huang's elder faction or the fallen faction of the street rats, they all regarded him as a mortal enemy, and wanted to put him to death and then hurry.
In the end, even the main battle faction jumped out against him and gave him a fatal blow.
This is a young Seven Pin Inspector named Zhang Jun.
He chose to shoot at the most critical time, shot fiercely and accurately, and made a fatal move, ending the political career of a generation of famous ministers Li Gang.
And the purpose, he just wanted to do what Li Gang had been doing--the main battle.
Zhang Jun,000,Hanzhou Mianzhu ren,was a Tang dynasty official after Zhang Jiuling, whose father Zhang Xian was both virtuous and virtuous, and had both zhongjinshi and xianliang at the same time, but Zhang Xian died when Zhang Jun was four years old, and the misfortune of the early family achieved Zhang Jun's precocious and calm and decisive character. In the eighth year of Zhenghe (1118), Zhang Junjinshi and di in the twenty-first year began his political career, initially as the Taichang Book from Qipin.
After the fall of Kaifeng, Zhang Jun witnessed the suffering of the empire, he did not die loyally to accompany the Second Emperor to hunt in the north, nor did he disdain to join Zhang Bangchang, but ran to Taixue and found a place to hide.
Watching the Second Emperor being captured and hunted in the north, and the prosperous imperial capital turned into a hell on earth, Zhang Jun strengthened his life and political beliefs - he never discussed with the Jin people for the rest of his life.
After Zhao Zhuo was proclaimed emperor in Nanjing, Zhang Jun soon came to vote and served as a privy council editor, and then soon changed to the imperial history of the palace.
Zhang Jun and Li Gang had already fought each other, Li Gang commanded the first defense of Tokyo, the seed master Daoqin Wang Jinbing, the two who were the first military leaders, for a while confused, so that yao Pingzhong's defeat in the night attack on the Jinying, after the incident Zhang Jun played a game to scare Li Boji, accusing him of not having a monopoly on the literati to get a knife, ruining the situation, and his words were quite fierce.
This time, Zhang Jun struck again, and he wrote a letter to shock the first prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, counting dozens of crimes such as improper punishment, putting an end to speech, buying horses, and recruiting troops.
A young official of the main battle faction was even more horrified by the leader of the main battle faction, and it seemed that the throat was sealed with blood, and the young emperor was still hesitant to depose Li Gang, but after reading Zhang Jun's recital, he made up his mind to depose Li Gang as a scholar of the GuanWen Temple and raise Dongxiao Palace.
This time, Li Gang was completely kicked off the political stage by the Zhao Empire and lost the opportunity to turn around forever. In Kaifeng, he once had the opportunity to save the fate of the empire, but in the end he could not escape the dormitory, he may have a lot of personality shortcomings and personality flaws, the Northern Song Dynasty Wenchen had low eyesight, dedicated to party struggle, obsessed with luxury, accustomed to arrogance and other rotten problems, he was also a lot, perhaps fundamentally he was not an outstanding and mature politician, but his courage, his persistence, and his intransigence at the time of the empire's crisis were the most brilliant colors in that dark season.
During the Defense of Tokyo, Li Gang was deposed, which triggered a huge patriotic movement of Tai students in Tokyo, and later Emperor Qinzong was forced to restore Li Gang's position.
In Yingtian, Nanjing, when the leader of the student movement, Chen Dong, was still there, and when he heard that Li Gang had been deposed, Chen Dong and another Ouyang Che wrote a letter again, demanding that the government restore Li Gang's position, and Chen Dong repeatedly spilled in public, crying and remembering the Second Emperor, accusing the current emperor of being a coward and a fake.
At this time, Nanjing was inferior to the city of Tokyo that day, and the student movement of Chen Dong Ouyang Che later evolved into violence, killing dozens of eunuchs, and this account Zhao and the wenchen still remember clearly.
After all, the current Zhao Shuo government did not face the Jurchen soldiers coming to the city, so it was more than enough to clean up a few literati who had no power to tie the chicken, and at the instigation of Wang and Huang, Zhao Cuo was momentarily passionate, killed, and fell with a knife, and the two leaders of the patriotic student movement were beheaded in the city.
Afterwards, Zhao Zhuo quickly repented, and at the beginning of his rise to power, he repeatedly used butcher knives, fell to the faction to kill, and the main battle faction also killed, which was very different from Taizu's founding instruction not to kill the master.
At this time, the young emperor and his courtiers could not find the north.
