King Jin Hailing,000,000,Dìguni, courtesy name Digun, was born in the sixth year of Jin Taizu's Tianfu (1122) and died in the sixth year of Zhenglong (1161), at the age of nine Chinese New Year's Eve. His father, Wanyan Zonggan, was the eldest son of Jin Taizu's Guanyan Akuta, and was the second most important person in the central government of the Jin Dynasty. From an early age, Yan Liang received a good education in feudal culture. His father Zonggan advocated the advanced feudal system and developed Han culture, advocated changing the old Jurchen system to the Han system, and was an enlightened person with innovative ideas among the Jurchen slave owners and aristocrats at that time. At home, he invited feudal Confucian students who were familiar with Confucian classics to teach their children to read. When Liang was a teenager, he loved to read, could chant poems and compose, loved to play chess, order tea, make friends with Confucianism, talk with people about the past and the present, and had a rather adult temperament.

The reformers of the Jurchen tribe laid the foundation for the prosperity of the Jin Dynasty, and the Hailing King completed Yan Liangxiong to build the imperial tomb

Under the influence of his father and the influence of Han culture, Yan Liang admired the feudal system of the Central Plains and understood the political thought of the central plains feudal dynasty. During his later reign, he carried out a more thorough reform of the Han system than his father Yizonggan.

In the third year (1140) of The Third Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, when Yan Liang was eighteen years old, he was appointed "General of the Fengguo Dynasty" and sent to serve under the account of the Marshal Zong Bi (Jin Wushu). Zong Bi is Zong Gan's half-brother and Yan Liang's uncle. At that time, Emperor Xizong adopted Zong Bi's advice and issued an edict to collect the Song provinces of Henan and Shaanxi. Zong Bi (also known as Jin Wushu) was the commander of the Jin Army, and Liang served as the general of fengguo, with the title of Marching Wanhu. Due to his meritorious combat and planning, he was promoted to general of the Horse Riders. By the fourth year of the Imperial Unification, he had been promoted to the rank of General of the Dragon and Tiger Guards. One thing that must be explained is that Zong Bi enforces the law strictly and belongs to the kind of person who does not favor personal feelings, so Yan Liang's promotion is entirely due to military merit, not because he is the son of Zong Mu Xungui.

After the Shaoxing Peace Conference, Yan Liang transferred from the military to the political circles, and served as the remaining guard of Zhongjing and the commander of the Terracotta Army, and was promoted to the rank of Guanglu Doctor. Become a local official of the Five Capitals and be on your own. He was only twenty-two years old. When Guanyan Liang was fourteen years old, Guanyan Liang took the throne as the grandson of Taizu, that is, Jin Xizong. Wanyan Liang grew up with Wanyan Liang (Zonggan's adopted son) from an early age. Yan Liang often thought that his father was the eldest son of Taizu, and although he was a grandson of Taizu, he was taizu's eldest grandson and should also have the right to inherit the throne. Since then, the seeds of ascending to the throne have been planted in his little soul.

At that time, the Jin Kingdom not only had sixteen prefectures, but also had shandong in the east, through Anhui, Henan, Hubei, Shaanxi, Shanxi, west to Gansu, Ningxia, and encompassing the entire territory of the Yellow River Basin, truly realizing the central plains.

Although Jin Taizu built Huining Province (present-day Acheng City south of Harbin), it had the size of a national capital. However, located in the far north, it did not have the status of commanding the whole country, and as a result, the two marshals' offices in the east and west of Yanjing (present-day Beijing) and Yunzhong (present-day Datong) became the highest authorities. For the supreme ruler of the Jin Dynasty, "the frontier is wider than ten thousand miles, and in the north, the people are simple and simple, and the south is far away." "So there is a great deal of management contradiction." The mission is bitter in the stages, the period is known month by month", "the state capital may return to and from the state capital until half a year", "people are detained on the road", "the supply and feeding are trapped in the transfer", which seriously affects the delivery of government decrees and the state revenue. This was the first problem that Kim Hee-jong faced.

Yan Qian's father died early, and his mother Pu Chashi transferred to Guanyan Zonggan according to the Jurchen clan rules, but it was still an orphan and widowed mother, and his ascension to the throne was the result of the balance of forces between the various factions. The generals represented by Zong Han (commonly known as Sticky Han) "took advantage of their weakness and eased control", put Jin Xizong in the position of puppet, and the government was controlled by the militant military generals. This is a thing from 1135. By 1141, the vast central plains were all occupied by the Jin. In order to maintain a partial security situation, the Southern Song Emperor Zhao Zhuo reused the Qin Ju of the Lord's Peace, killed the famous anti-Jin generals Yue Fei and Zhang Xian, who were the main battle, and surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, signing the "Shaoxing Peace Agreement". The "peace talks" stipulated that the territory of the two countries flowed from the Huai River in the east to Dashanguan in the west; the Tang and Deng Erzhou in the upper reaches of the Huai River and the Qin and Shang Prefectures in the west were divided into half to the Jin Dynasty, that is to say, the Jin Dynasty owned most of China. Song also had to submit to Jinna coin.

This period was the heyday of slavery in the Jurchen JinGuo, and at the same time, it was also an important period for its transition from slavery to feudalism. The Song-Jin War, which lasted for decades, caused the Jin Dynasty to capture a large number of Han Chinese, and they brought advanced production technology to the Jurchens, and the Jurchens and Han people mixed and influenced each other, with the result that the Jurchens increasingly demanded changes in their backward production and lifestyle.

In the Central Plains, the Jin Dynasty established the "Tuntian Army" system, moving a large number of Jurchen Meng'an and Mouke (Jurchen-species organizations that are both economic and military books) from the Jurchen homeland to the Central Plains, but "every conquest carried out by a more barbaric nation self-evidently hindered the development of the factory economy and destroyed a large number of productive forces." But in the long period of conquest, the more barbaric conquerors, in the vast majority of cases, had to adapt to the relatively higher "economic conditions" that existed after the conquest; they were assimilated by the conquered, and most of them even had to adopt the words of the conquered. (The Collected Works of Marx and Engels, vol. III, p. 222)

The Jurchens entered the Central Plains and were in such a situation, and this situation was also reflected in the Jurchen upper ruling clique.

Jin Xizong has been to the Central Plains twice since he was a primary school of Han culture, and he admires the feudal canon system founded by the Han people, and he is also dressed as a Han Chinese, so that some people say that he is like a Han Tianzi.

After Emperor Xizong came to power, he grasped the imperial power, and he tried to change the old customs of Jurchen, implement the system of "Zongtang than Song", use the language and writing of the Han people, and implement the economic policy of "cultivating trees" and focusing on the agricultural economy.

However, because he was supported by the Jurchen nobles to come to power, he did not have the strength and could not carry out the reform measures to the end, so the reform stopped. Minor reforms and small reforms are common, and the people's revolutions are not successful; although he also killed a group of diehards and nobles who stubbornly resisted the reforms, he did not succeed in implementing reform measures. Under the pressure of the old nobles, it is recorded that his mood at this time was very anxious. He pushed forward administrative measures that violated the interests of the old aristocracy and aroused the dissatisfaction of the old aristocracy, and he was unable to completely reform the old system and make the reformists dissatisfied.

Although with zonggan's efforts, zonghan was eliminated. However, there are still some powerful people who "always harbor the evil heart of no king, nickname people, incite them to commit adultery, sit on the map and win the crown, and are about to make soldiers", resulting in "the disintegration of the group of subjects, the lack of respect for the heart of the king, and the theft of the group of traitors." "Everyone has a heart for themselves", this historical record says that Zong Pan, the son of Emperor Taizong of Jin, had "conspiracies", who accepted bribes from Qin Juniper of the Southern Song Dynasty and prepared to return the lands of Henan and Shaanxi that had been occupied to the Song Dynasty and launch a coup d'état, and Zong Pan wanted to take the position of Emperor Xizong and replace them. It was zong gan who obtained the cooperation of Yan Xiyin and Zong Bi before he got rid of Zong Pan and his henchmen, and after being lazy and "defeated and running south", he was ready to defect to the Song Dynasty, and was chased and killed by Jin Wushu.

However, many of Jin Taizong's descendants, in the name of revenge on Emperor Yanzong, plotted to seize the throne, and the situation of fire and fire would repeat itself. However, Jin Xizong did nothing, "in the last years of drunkenness and killing", he cursed Zhongliang, ignored the government and politics, "people are afraid of danger", there were many drawbacks, and the great Jin Dynasty was in danger. This is the second problem that Kim Hee-jong encountered. And these problems Cannot be solved by Jin Xizong.

In this case, the Hailing King finished Yan Liang on the stage.

Yan Liang's real name is DiGunai, and his father is Taizu's first son, Shu Chu. In order to cultivate the Hailing King into a loyal and talented heir of the Yan clan, Zong Gan sent him to the steppe and exercised his brave and warlike, rough and fierce character. Later, he was recalled from the grasslands and studied scriptures and martial arts with Han Confucians in the palace. Since his youth, he has set up the ambition of "raising troops on the West Lake of a million people, and immediately reaching the first peak of Wushan Mountain" to unify the Song Dynasty and then unify the whole country. Later, he accompanied his uncle Liang Wang, Yan Zongbi (Jin Wushu), to attack the Song Dynasty many times, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan. Jin Xizong, who was proclaimed empress dowager, also admired his talents, transferred him from Zhongjing to the imperial court, and entrusted him with many important tasks, in which he was appointed as the political secretary of Pingzhang and the chancellor, and commanded the imperial government, and served as the highest military leader, the marshal of the capital. However, Yan Liang was dissatisfied with Jin Xizong's hesitant attitude of change and the conservative and backward production and lifestyle of the Jurchens. More dissatisfied with the bitter cold of the place where he lived. Although he was a chancellor and held important official positions, he could not develop his ambitions under the suppression of the backward system and the conservative aristocracy. He is a man of good at scheming and seizing opportunities, he is spying and waiting for the opportunity. When he saw that Jin Xizong had aroused the displeasure of his relatives and old nobles, he spread among these old nobles: "Imagami is the grandson and heir of Taizu. My father is the eldest son of Taizu, and I am taizu's eldest grandson, so why can't I be emperor?"

His confession really resonated with the old nobles who were dissatisfied with Xizong. Because at that time, Jin Xizong not only often killed ministers, but also often punished close ministers and even spanked in public. And drunk all day. Therefore, the ministers wanted to find a personal replacement for Yu Xizong, and the Hailing King was just adapted to their requirements. Hailing Gong actively communicated internally and externally, and gathered people close to Xizong, such as Tang Kuo, Xiaodi Daxingguonu of the Sleeping Hall, Guards Commander Kutu, and Ali Chuhu, who were close to Xizong. In December of the ninth year of the Tianhui, Feng Kutu and Ali came out of the Tiger Palace, and Yan Liang secretly sneaked into the palace. Ku Tu and Ali went to Jin Xizong's bedside and slashed Jin Xizong with a knife, and Jin Xizong woke up and wanted to resist with the sabre he had placed on the bed, where he knew that the knife had been taken away by Daxingguo, who had cleaned up the sleeping hall. Ku Tu and Ali came out of the tiger and slashed Jin Xizong with a knife before he died, and Yan Liang rushed in again and stabbed Guan Yan to death with his own hands. "Blood Spatter Bed".

This year, Kim Hee-jong was 31 years old.

Early the next morning, he used GuanYan Yong, who was serving as a soldier Shangshu, to deceive and kill the Cao king Guanyan Zongmin, and Zuo Chengxiang completed Yan Zongxian. These people "sit on the sea tomb, worship, and say long live." "Began the fourth generation of the Jin Dynasty to complete the imperial industry of Yan Liang. Since then, Guanyan Liang, with his literary and martial strategy, has created a new situation in the Jin Dynasty.
