The Chenqiao Mutiny was completely a bloodless coup d'état deliberately created by Zhao Kuangyin, and the war report of the invasion of the Liao and Northern Han coalition forces, and it was also a rumor deliberately spread by Zhao Kuangyin, the purpose of which was to allow Zhao Kuangyin to take the troops out.

If you don't take it out, if you do it directly in the capital, you will inevitably meet each other and kill a lot of people, and if you take the soldiers out, it will be in the hands of Zhao Kuangyin, the capital will be empty, and it will be easy to usurp the throne. You don't have to take it too far, otherwise you will have to run more when you come back, just in Chenqiao, where the director can drive back as soon as he plays a supporting scene.

Zhao Kuangyin is a martial artist with little culture, but his knowledge is better than all literati. It only took him ten years to go from an unliterate homeless man to becoming an emperor, and he was only thirty-three years old when he ascended the throne, which is really amazing.

Zhao Kuangyin was very benevolent, and after unifying China, he raised all the monarchs he destroyed. And his younger brother Zhao Guangyi was insidious and vicious, poisoning many people. When Zhao Kuangyin was dying, he also stipulated that future generations were not allowed to kill the Chai family, which also reflected his benevolence.

Zhao Kuangyin respects knowledge and talents, especially intellectuals. He stipulated to his descendants that scholars and scholars and those who wrote and said things were exempt from death, so that the two Song Dynasty had a lot of phases, and few generals, and the number of generals was only Di Qing, Zong Ze, Yue Fei and a few others, and there were too many phases, starting from Zhao Pu, the big names were Wang Dan, Lu Mengzheng, Kou Zhun, Lu Yijian, Bao Zheng, Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi, Fu Bi, Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi ....... The Northern Song Dynasty was the most respected dynasty in Chinese history.

The most important thing is that Zhao Kuangyin changed the system of China's feudal dynasties, before him, the five dynasties were extremely unstable, and the generals usurped the throne and seized power at every turn, and after him, China could no longer have a courtier to seize power and usurp the throne.

After the fall of the Later Jin Dynasty and the withdrawal of the Khitan, Liu Zhiyuan, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, led the army into Kaifeng and announced the establishment of the Later Han Empire. He died after only one year as emperor and was succeeded by his eighteen-year-old son, Liu Chengyou, who framed his ministers and generals for rebellion and killed them all. Yedu stayed behind Guo Wei and was not in Kaifeng but in Yedu, fortunately he escaped the net, but the whole family was still slaughtered. So Guo Wei raised troops and captured Kaifeng, and Liu Chengyou was hacked to death by the rebels. The Later Han Dynasty existed for only four years, and the following year Guo Wei ascended the throne and established the Later Zhou.

Guo Wei died of illness a year after becoming emperor, and his adopted son Chai Rong ascended the throne. He is a rare wise monarch in the five generations, defeated the Northern Han, attacked the Southern Tang Dynasty, attacked the Liao State, recaptured the sixteen states of Yanyun back to two states, and fell into three passes in a row. Seven-year-old Chai Zongxun inherited the throne and was Emperor Gong. In front of the palace, Zhao Kuangyin and his subordinates were inspected, and they plotted to seize power from this seven-year-old child.

Zhao Kuangyin's father, Zhao Hongyin, is a native of Zhuo County, in the early days of the Five Dynasties, he led 500 cavalry to aid Li Cunmiao of the Later Tang Dynasty, and killed the army of Zhu Wen of the Later Liang Dynasty. Mrs. Du, Zhao Hongyin's wife, gave birth in Luoyang Jiama Camp and gave birth to a son, who was later Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty.

In the more than ten years that Zhao Kuangyin grew up, the Zhao family has declined step by step. Zhao Hongyin was originally a favorite general of the Later Tang Zhuangzong Li Cunqing, but after Li Cunqiao was killed in the mutiny, he began to be snubbed. It can be said that Zhao Kuangyin's teenage years were spent with his father going south and north to work and sell art, and since he was a child, he has seen all the eyebrows and low eyes in the world, and tasted the ups and downs of life.

The long-term wandering career has cultivated his Laipi character who likes to fight and gamble, and he can't lose or lose, and it is necessary to win and win. Fortunately, he was born with big ears, tall and strong, and knew some martial arts, and anyone who fought with him had no good fruit to eat.

Zhao Kuangyin got married and started a family at the age of nineteen. He should start a family, and he is like many rural boys, and he is determined to go out and break into the world. At the age of twenty-one, he resolutely ran away from home, first to go to a few former friends, but the world was cold, not only did he not get care and help from these powerful friends, but suffered a lot of white eyes and cold treatment.

Later, he enlisted in the army and became a partial general under Guo Wei. At that time, Guo Wei was supporting his army and was preparing to replace the Later Han. In the war, Zhao Kuangyin had a place to be a hero, he was very brave in battle, able to charge into battle, and resourceful, which was appreciated by Guo Wei.

In the process of Guo Wei being proclaimed emperor by his subordinates, Zhao Kuangyin made a lot of efforts, so he was promoted to the head of the eastern and western classes, and became a middle-level forbidden army officer, and finally had a place to settle down. During this period, he was especially loyal to the general Chai Rong, and gradually won Chai Rong's trust.

Chai Zongxun ascended the throne, and because he was too young, he was assisted by Prime Minister Fan Zhen and Wang Pu. The political situation was unstable, people's hearts were fluctuating, and rumors were spreading, and some officials who were loyal to Hou Zhou were immediately keenly aware that the root cause of the turmoil was likely to lie with Zhao Kuangyin, pointing out that Zhao Kuangyin should no longer be in charge of the forbidden army, and some people even advocated preemptive strikes to kill Zhao Kuangyin as soon as possible, but Emperor Zhou Gong only reappointed Zhao Kuangyin as the envoy of the German army and the captain of the school.

At this time, Zhao Kuangyin and his henchmen were also stepping up their activities, and the arrangement of the senior generals of the forbidden army was definitely beneficial to Zhao Kuangyin. The position of deputy capital of the palace, which has been vacant, has been held by Murong Zhao, who is a young friend of Zhao Kuangyin, and the relationship is extraordinary; the original vacant post of Marquis Yu in front of the palace is held by Wang Xianqi, who is also Zhao Kuangyin's old friend, and Shi Shouxin, who has already served as the commander of the palace capital, is the most core figure in Zhao Kuangyin's circle of influence. In this way, all the positions of the senior generals of the entire palace front division were held by Zhao Kuangyin's people.

Look at the guard system again, among the senior generals in this system, it turned out that Zhao Kuangyin only had a brotherhood with Han Lingkun, at that time he was leading the troops to garrison Yangzhou, Huainan, and in the capital, there was actually only the deputy commander Han Tong, although he was not Zhao Kuangyin's person, but he was alone and could not compete with Zhao Kuangyin.

On the first day of the first lunar month, Hou Zhou Junchen was celebrating the New Year when he suddenly received a war report on the invasion of the Liao and Northern Han coalition forces, and the ministers panicked. After the little emperor Chai Zongxun obtained the consent of the prime minister Fan Zhen and Wang Pu, he ordered Zhao Kuangyin to lead the forbidden army to meet the enemy.

Zhao Kuangyin received the order to send troops, immediately dispatched troops, on the second day of the first month, he led the troops out of the city, followed by his younger brother Zhao Guangyi and his cronies and strategists Zhao Pu, in the afternoon of the same day, arrived at Chenqiaoyi, which was dozens of miles away from Feng. At night, Zhao Kuangyin ordered the soldiers to camp on the spot to rest, and the soldiers fell asleep, but some generals gathered together and quietly discussed.

Someone said: "Now that the emperor is so young, we are desperate to fight, who knows our merits in the future, it is better to support Zhao Dianzhen as the emperor now." After everyone heard this, they all agreed with this opinion, so they pushed an official to tell Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Pu this opinion first.

When the official arrived at Zhao Guangyi, before he could finish speaking, the generals had already broken in, showed their bright knives, and shouted: "We have already discussed and decided, and we must ask for a check-in and take office." ”

Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Pu were secretly happy when they heard this, and on the one hand they told everyone to calm down the army's morale and not cause chaos, and on the other hand, they quickly sent Zhao Kuangyin's confidant Guo Yanbin to secretly return to the capital and inform the generals who stayed in the capital, Shi Shouxin and Wang Xianqi, to take care of the gates inside and outside the capital. It didn't take long for the news to spread throughout the barracks. The soldiers all got up, and everyone flocked to the post house where Zhao Kuangyin lived, and waited until the sky turned white.

At night, Zhao Kuangyin pretended not to know, got drunk and fell asleep, and when he woke up, he could only hear the noise outside. Then someone opened the door and shouted, "Please be the emperor!"

Zhao Kuangyin hurriedly got up, and before he could speak, several people put a yellow robe that had been prepared on Zhao Kuangyin's body. Everyone fell to their knees on the ground and kowtowed a few times, shouting long live. then pushed and pulled, helped Zhao Kuangyin onto the horse, and asked him to return to the capital.

Zhao Kuangyin rode on his horse and said, "Since you have made me the Son of Heaven, can you all obey my orders?"

The soldiers replied in unison, "Naturally, listen to Your Majesty's orders. ”

So Zhao Kuangyin issued an order: "After arriving in the capital, we must protect the young lord of the Zhou Dynasty, not to invade the ministers of the court, and not to loot the state warehouse." There will be a great reward for the execution of the order, otherwise it will be dealt with strictly. ”

When he arrived in Bianjing, Shi Shouxin, Wang Xianqi and others responded internally, and they took the capital without much effort. The only failure was that Wang Yansheng killed Han Tong and his family, who were trying to organize resistance, and smeared Zhao Kuangyin's peaceful evolution with the blood of Later Zhou Zhongchen. Wang Yansheng was hated by Zhao Kuangyin, and he did not become a festival envoy for life.

First, he sent Pan Mei to tell Fan Zhen and others that the early dynasty had not yet ended, and Prime Minister Fan Zhen grabbed Wang Pu's hand and said: "Hastily condemn the general, and the crime of my generation is also." The fingers pinched into Wang Pu's hand, almost bleeding, and Wang Pu didn't dare to say a word.

When Zhao Kuangyin saw them, he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Shizong treats me very kindly, and now I am forced to be like this by the soldiers, what do you say?"

Fan Zhen didn't know how to answer, and a general shouted in a loud voice: "We don't have a master, everyone must check the son of heaven today." Fan Zhen and Wang Pu were so frightened that they hurriedly bowed.

Then the Zen concession ceremony was held, but when the people arrived, there was no Zen edict, and Hanlin Chengzhi Tao Gu took out a copy from his sleeve, so he used this edict. Zhao Kuangyin ascended the throne and became the emperor, because Zhao Kuangyin was appointed to the German army to serve in Songzhou, so he took Song as the country name and set the capital in Tokyo. Known as the Northern Song Dynasty in history, Zhao Kuangyin is Song Taizu.

Zhao Kuangyin made the little emperor Chai Zongxun of the Later Zhou Dynasty the king of Zheng, and the little emperor was later moved to Fangzhou and died at the age of 20 and was called Emperor Gong.

He was only seven years old when he ascended the throne, and after only half a year as emperor, he first lived in Tianqing Temple after the throne, and then was moved to Fangzhou, where he remained until his death at the age of twenty. Some people think that he was poisoned by Zhao Guangyi, Taizong of the Song Dynasty, which is unlikely. Chai Zongxun died three years earlier than Zhao Kuangyin, and when Zhao Kuangyin was alive, Zhao Guangyi definitely did not dare to advocate poisoning Chai Zongxun. And according to Zhao Kuangyin's benevolent character and lifelong performance, he would never poison Chai Zongxun.

Before Zhao Kuangyin's death, he had set up a stone monument in the Taimiao, and later the new son of heaven had to go to the Taimiao to worship the monument and recite the oath silently. This stele stands in the mezzanine room of the Taimiao dormitory, except for the emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty, no one else knows. Even when the new emperor went to worship the monument, only one illiterate chamberlain followed, and the others were far away and very mysterious.

It wasn't until the end of the Northern Song Dynasty after the Jingkang Revolution that the palace gate was opened, and people were able to take a look, but it was a very simple three: one is to protect the descendants of the Chai family, and the punishment cannot be increased if they are guilty; the second is not to kill the scholars and doctors and those who write and say things; and the third is that the descendants must not break the above oath, otherwise they will be punished by heaven. In addition, Zhao Kuangyin also issued a Danshu iron coupon to the Chai family, with which the descendants of the Chai family will be exempt from death forever if they commit crimes. Zhao Kuangyin's heart to protect Chai Zongxun and the Chai family is very sincere, how could he harm Chai Zongxun?
