Chapter 287:-for-tat (1)

Emperor Zhenzong's last sentence "Wang Aiqing, please speak, how do you think about it" completely changed the direction of the wind in the court.

The wind in the court was initially favorable to Kou Zhun's Northern Party, because the addition of Qin Shi Huang and Wei Yan made Song Zhenzong feel a sense of awe for the sages.

Under the recommendation of Qin Shi Huang and Wei Yan, Zhenzong appointed Zheng Shuang as the generalissimo of the hussar general Iron Falcon Army; Yang Yanzhao also followed suit.

The Yang family will work hard for the Great Song Dynasty and will be born and die; So many people died, but the imperial court, misled by the national policy of emphasizing literature over military force, could only let the descendants of the Yang family be the gatekeepers of the pass; No one has ever entered the central organ of the imperial court.

Yang Yanzhao was appointed as the general of Zhenguo and the privy councillor, that is, the deputy privy envoy and the deputy prime minister; It can be described as a shotgun for a gun.

Leng Bingshuang is the orphan of the late general Leng Xiaowu, and it is reasonable that he is the Dingyuan general of the positive five grades.

The problem is that Zheng Shuang, Yang Yanzhao, and Leng Bingshuang are all northerners' natural return to Kou Zhun's northern party, and the situation in which the north wind overpowers the south wind is in full swing in the court; In line with Song Taizu's testament: "Southerners can't be prime ministers, and men can't sit in the court!" ”

The problem is that feng shui turns to my house today, and the southern scholars represented by Wang Qinruo are all full of economic wealth and five cars; In the hands of Zhao Heng, the third emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, there seemed to be signs of salted fish turning over.

The Great Song Dynasty was established by the northerner Zhao Kuangyin, and after the fall of Zhao Kuangyin's middle way, his second brother Zhao Guangyi took over, and was known as Lao Zhao Laosan; Lao Zhao Laosan was more harsh than his brother Zhao Kuangyin in treating southern scholars.

After the second and third days of Lao Zhao collapsed, it was the turn of Xiao Zhao and the third true sect Zhao Heng to sit in the Dragon Court, and the situation was slowly changing in a subtle way.

Xiao Zhao Laosan's throne was picked up from his brother Zhao Yuanzuo, and he even won the winner, he married a southern mother-in-law, Liu E.

Liu E is a Shu person, and there has never been an accurate statement about whether Shu is south or north in history; But Liu E classified herself among the southerners.

Liu E was originally a little excellent girl who shook the drum on the street, and she never gave up after being hit by Zhao Hengxiang; His father Zhao Guangyi obstructed in every way, and Zhao Heng had policies and countermeasures; hid Liu E like a cat, looking forward to Lao Tzu's kicking and ascending to heaven; He entered the palace and wanted to be the queen, but the northern ministers such as Kou Zhun, Bi Shi'an, and Zhao Anren all opposed it; Wang Qinruo, a scholar in the south, played a trick and strongly supported the emperor to set up Liu E as the queen, and also took the opportunity to clean up the land requisition Zhao Anren.

Wang Qinruo's methods are a glimpse of the whole leopard, but Song Zhenzong likes it.

Song Zhenzong likes the soft words and fine sentences of the southern scholars, I and me, and you Yingge and Yan dance, such soft words and fine sentences are like a wisp of spring breeze that makes Xiao Zhao Xiaosan's heart itch with comfort.

The northern scholars are different, all of them are "tiger roaring wolf howling"; For example, Kou Zhun spoke in front of Zhao Heng like shouting at Qin to teach primary school students; Emperor Zhenzong shuddered.

The scholars of the Northern School, represented by Kou Zhun, were even more round-waisted and arrogant, if it weren't for the king's imprisonment; I don't know how to smash the stingy and weak southern scholar into meat sauce.

Kou Zhun was not polite to the southern scholars, and he did not prick the northern military ministers in the eyes.

There is a military general named Cao Utilization, yes, it is the Cao Utilization who negotiated with the Liao people in the Yuanyuan Alliance.

Cao Zhun was interrupted every time he spoke in front of Kou Zhun before he finished speaking, and Kou Zhun liked to drink a lot of wine and set up a banquet to entertain Cao Yong, who had become a privy deputy; But Cao took advantage of the lack of enthusiasm for drinking, Kou Zhun was unhappy, and blamed him: "I persuaded the Taiwei to drink, why didn't the Taiwei drink?" ”

Cao Yu barely raised his glass, but only touched his lips; Kou Zhun was furious and said, "You are just a martial artist, you dare to fool me like this!" ”

Cao Yu also got up in a hurry and shouted: "The emperor ordered me to serve in the cardinal mansion, but you called me a martial artist; See you in front of the emperor tomorrow and talk about it. After saying that, he brushed his sleeves away, and the two of them had a gap.

Kou Zhun is arrogant and arrogant, and his speech is informal; When the prime minister once had a working meal in Zhongshu Province, the juice accidentally flowed onto his beard when he drank the soup; Seeing this, the governor Ding Wei hurriedly came over and wiped it with a handkerchief.

Kou Zhun not only did not thank him, but laughed and said: "Participating in politics is an important minister of the country, but I can't imagine it, but I also brush my beard for the chief!" This is where the phrase "slippery" comes from.

Kou Zhun is such a two-hundred-five. The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it; Heaps out of the shore, and the flow will be turbulent; Walk above men, and the crowd will not.

Kou Zhun's 205 moves provoked the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, and most people were not interested and disgusted with him.

Wang Qinruo threw out the idea of moving the capital, and cried loudly while crying: "I think that Emperor Taizu established the Great Song Dynasty with great difficulty, and Emperor Taizong worked hard to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun; However, the emperor is not blessed, and the two wars of the Gaoliang River and the Yongxi Northern Expedition have vented the courage of Emperor Taizong! really sent the emperor Weiwei wisely, and in the second year of Xianping, the imperial driver personally conquered and stationed in the Daimyo's mansion; The Liao people's invincible appearance is actually all an illusion made by their subordinates! In a word, our dynasty is an agrarian nation; And the Great Liao Khitan Kingdom is a nomadic people, they have bows, arrows and horses; Since ancient times, the farming peoples have not been the opponents of the steppe nomads! In the opinion of Weichen, facing the iron hooves of the Liao army like tigers and wolves; The monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty must avoid its edge and move the capital! ”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Wang Qinruo's words of "moving the capital" immediately caused a lot of discussion among the ministers, and Emperor Zhenzong asked Wang Qinruo to talk about his intentions; Why not move the capital?

Wang Qinruo spoke bluntly: Jinling is the top, and Jinling is Jiankang.

Jinling (Jiankang, Jianye) belongs to Ning, Zhen, Yang hilly area, mainly low mountains and slow hills; Low mountains account for 3.5% of the total land area, hills account for 4.3%, hills account for 53%, and plains, depressions, rivers and lakes account for 39.2%.

Such topography is natural, and it is many times better than the Great Wall of Water and Baiyangdian lakes and waters artificially built from Baozhou to Jizhou.

Coupled with the rapid flow of the Yangtze River, a natural water Great Wall stands tall.

The Ningzhen Mountains and the old mountains in the north of the river are in the middle of the city, and there are the Hengshan and Donglu Mountains in the south of the hills and hills of the Qinhuai River Basin.

The plane position of Jinling is long from north to south, narrow from east to west, and is in a positive north-south direction; The distance between the north and south is 300 li in a straight line, the central part is 100 to 140 li wide from east to west, and the north and south ends are about 60 li wide from east to west.

To the south is a geomorphological complex composed of topographic units such as low mountains, hills, river valley plains, lakeside plains and riverside rivers.

In 229 A.D., Sun Quan, the Emperor of the Eastern Wu Dynasty of the Three Kingdoms, built the capital here and changed the tomb to Jianye; Since then, Jinling has risen to make the government of China. the governance center out of the pattern of the Yellow River cultural plate; It has led the development of the Yangtze River basin and the entire southern region of China.

After that, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Southern Dynasties of Song, Qi, Liang, and Chen all successively built their capitals here, and the Jiankang City of the Six Dynasties (the Six Dynasties established in the south of the Three Kingdoms - Sui and Tang Dynasties) was the largest city in the world at that time, with a population of one million; It is the first city in the world with a population of more than one million, and the Han people have preserved the authenticity of Chinese culture in Jinling.

The Jiankang City of the Six Dynasties has an important position in the history of the development of the Chinese capital, and is the first precedent for the symmetrical layout of the central axis of the capital. Its layout and architectural form have had a profound impact on later generations.

The imperial palace of the Six Dynasties, Taicheng, was the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the countries of East Asia vying to follow suit; Inherited from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Sui and Tang dynasties, it had a profound impact on the shape of the construction of the capital in later generations.

In the Sui and Tang dynasties, Jinling was deliberately degraded by the north; However, the geographical advantages have made Jinling's economy and culture continue to develop and become stronger.

Poets such as Li Bai, Liu Yuxi, Du Mu, and Li Shangyin have lived and visited here.

After the death of the Tang Dynasty, the Southern Tang Dynasty set the capital of Jinling and expanded the city; The war in the north continued, but there was no major war in Jinling for more than 70 years.

The bazaars on both sides of the Qinhuai River gathered, the economic prosperity was accompanied by the development of culture, and poetry, calligraphy and painting were all open to a generation.

Wang Qinruo finally made a generous statement: "If the Holy Lord moves the capital to Jinling, he can attack with the Yangtze River as a moat, and he can defend when he retreats; Accumulating for several years to destroy the Liao State is not bragging, talking big! ”

Wang Qinruo's introduction to Jinling's superior location made Zheng Shuang dumbfounded; Zheng Shuang had to admire Wang Qinruo's ability to be a versatile god.

Geographically speaking, Bianliang is reluctant to be the capital of the Great Song Dynasty; If the sixteen states of Yanyun belonged to the Song Dynasty, Bianliang would be reasonable as the capital; However, the sixteen states of Yanyun were in the hands of the Liao, and Bianliang was exposed to the target of the Liao army's iron hooves.

The iron hooves of the Liao army come and go without a trace, and they can come whenever they want; The Song army had to tighten the defensive strings at all times, and the slightest relaxation would risk the destruction of the country......

Zheng Shuang was thinking when he suddenly heard Kou Zhun shouting: "Your Majesty, immediately behead the traitor King Qinruo!" ”

Kou Zhun said angrily, and said with a long sigh: "Bianliang has been the capital of the imperial court for 44 years, not only can you not move to Jinling, but you should always settle in Youzhou in the north; Dare to say that there is no forgiveness for moving the capital to Jinling! ”

"Kou Zhun, don't cover the sky with one hand!" Chen Yaosu came out of the middle of the class, and shouted on the ground: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live", stood up and said: "Holy Lord, Wang Xianggong's statement of moving the capital is supported by Weichen, but Jinling is not suitable; Chengdu is the place where the gold is impregnable! ”

"Full of nonsense!" Kou Zhun shouted angrily: "Chen Yaosuo should also be killed......
