Why is it said that Song Ningzong Zhao Has no way to govern? How he did it

Even when listening to the government, his subordinates rarely heard Emperor Ningzong's own views on political affairs. Wei Jing, the living quartersman in charge of recording the emperor's words and deeds, once described the situation of Emperor Ningzong's ascension to the court that he personally witnessed: "Every time His Majesty met with the Qunchen, no matter how long the Qunchen played a series of songs and how long it was, His Majesty was pleasant and pleasant, patiently listened, and did not look tired, this is the emperor's modesty, he did not taste any consultation, mostly silently accepted. ”

Ning Zong's patience was very good, but this did not help him solve practical problems. He had neither a brain nor a mouth, but only a pair of ears to go up to the court, and the ministers were finished after listening to the arguments, neither taking a stand nor making a decision, and the players were already dry-mouthed, but in the end they still did not understand the point. As a courtier, Wei Jing could only defend Emperor Ningzong with "modesty", and it was expected that he was also doubting the intelligence level of the heavenly son in his heart.

These were the normal ways for the emperor to express his will, and Emperor Ningzong was perhaps unwilling to be constrained in any way, so he chose an abnormal way of governance, the imperial pen. The imperial pen was directly issued by the emperor in the inner palace and directly issued for execution without going through the central decision-making bodies such as the three provinces. This practice loses its restraint on the monarchy and is out of place. If the emperor is a shrewd and strong king, it will not cause a major disaster, but Ningzong is an emperor who is not strong in governance, and the abuse of the imperial pen can only create opportunities for the dictatorship of the powerful ministers.

By colluding with eunuchs and harems, or influencing the instructions of the imperial pen, or by using their hands in the process of conveying the imperial pen, they made the imperial pen a tool for their own use, and even forged the imperial pen to act as the emperor's power.

At an inner court banquet, a gentleman played the role of a customer who bought an umbrella, and he criticized the umbrella seller, saying that the umbrella only oiled the outside: "Now zheng (zheng) is like a guest selling an umbrella, not oil (by) inside." "Cleverly using harmonic tones to imply that political affairs are not decided by Nei (Ningzong), while Ningzong, who watches the drama, does not know what it means. In the face of such an emperor, the powerful ministers are naturally fearless and even more wanton.
