Chapter 792: Miao Liu Mutiny (Ask for Subscription!) )
…
After losing trust in Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan, and removing Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan from their official positions, Zhao Gou appointed Zhu Shengfei as prime minister to replace Wang Boyan, while Wang Yuan officially took over the military position from Huang Qianshan and became a veritable prime minister.
Zhu Shengfei won't say much, he can't talk about being talented, but he can also be regarded as a decent prime minister - he is naturally worse than Zhao Ding and Li Gang, but he is countless times stronger than Wang Boyan.
Wang Yuan was a high-ranking military general in the Northern Song Dynasty, and he made many achievements in the war with the Western Xia.
When Zhao Gou was the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, Wang Yuan led his troops to vote very early, because he was meritorious from the dragon, so Zhao Gou trusted Wang Yuan very much.
The key is that Wang Yuan has a particularly good relationship with eunuchs such as Kang Lu, whom Zhao Gou favored, and Kang Lu and other eunuchs say good things about Wang Yuan in Zhao Go's ear every day.
As a result, Zhao Gou's favor for Wang Yuan has reached a point where no one can do it.
And Wang Yuan himself is actually a relatively capable general.
At the beginning, before Zhao Gou went south, a group of thieves swarmed in Hangzhou.
Zhao Gou used Wang Yuan as the system to pacify the bandits in Hangzhou.
Wang Yuan raised troops to recruit and suppress, was invincible, and won a complete victory.
To sum up, Zhao Goucai handed over the military power of the Great Song Dynasty to Wang Yuan.
But—
Wang Yuan was not in Lin'an at this time, but in Zhenjiang to resist the invasion of the Chinese army.
Zhao Gou originally thought that with Wang Yuan's bravery, he should be able to resist the Chinese army, and then he could sit down with Li Yan and talk about how to strike the army and negotiate peace.
But the cruel reality is that Yue Fei waved his army south, and the 100,000 army led by Wang Yuan was defeated in a battle.
And Wang Yuan was worthy of being Zhao Gou's favorite minister, knowing that the Chinese army was incapable of the enemy, he immediately fled south.
If you want to say, you Wang Yuan will run away.
But Wang Yuan has a very big problem, that is, he is very greedy for money.
In the course of the continuous war, Wang Yuan saw so many military generals, either who died for the country, surrendered to China, or were killed by the rebels, all of which were precarious.
Therefore, Wang Yuan thinks that the most important thing is to accumulate money and buy some industries for his children and grandchildren.
In fact, among the military commanders of the Song Dynasty, Wang Yuan was not the only one who was greedy for money, and it should be said that the military generals of the Song Dynasty generally had this problem.
It's just that Wang Yuan is a more excessive person, and his treasures can be said to be inseparable from him wherever he goes.
And Wang Yuan, who has won Zhao Gou's favor, has really accumulated a fortune in the past two years that makes anyone hot.
In order to bring all this wealth with him, Wang Yuan actually used more than a dozen large ships to transport his belongings across the Yangtze River first, and abandoned his soldiers and soldiers, which caused tens of thousands of soldiers to cross the river without boats, stranded on the river bank to be slaughtered by the Chinese army, and thousands of valuable war horses were also lost to the enemy camp and became the spoils of the Chinese army.
For the Song army, which was already at a disadvantage, this kind of loss was very heavy.
What is even more infuriating is that people whispered that the treasures on those warships were all looted by Wang Yuan when he killed the people indiscriminately when he pacified Chen Tong.
And yet—
Wang Yuan lost a very important Zhenjiang and made such a big mistake, he should have been severely punished, but because Wang Yuan was favored by Zhao Gou, and there were eunuchs such as Kang Lu to exonerate Wang Yuan, in the end, Zhao Gou only removed Wang Yuan from his position as a privy envoy and reappointed him as a member of the Privy Council, without other severe punishments.
This aroused the dissatisfaction of many officers, and they all said: "How can a cowardly and incompetent person who is greedy for life and afraid of death lead us, and we are also people who have made meritorious contributions to the protection of the dragon, why did he Wang Yuan get a reward, but we got nothing?" ”
And the eunuchs such as Kanglu, whom Zhao Gou favored, not only exonerated Wang Yuan, but also acted as a prestige, forcibly occupied people's houses, and insulted the sergeants.
Hu Cong Miao Fu said resentfully: "The emperor has been displaced here, and those people dare to do this!" ”
And Zhang Kui, under Miao Fu, also angered the sergeant: "If you can kill Wang Yuan and that group of eunuchs, then everyone can live a good life, how can the court punish us?" ”
However, Zhao Gou completely ignored the thoughts of the sergeants, and issued another edict: "In addition to Wang Yuan, the Privy Council member who signed the same book, he will not be allowed to submit a letter to the official affairs of this court." That is, Wang Yuan was allowed to take charge of the affairs of the Privy Council without having to submit a letter to the emperor.
Miao Fu, who was conceited that his family had a lot of credit, couldn't bear it anymore, and then jumped out and said: "Your generation has turned the world upside down so far, you still dare to be yeye!" ”
Although Liu Zhengyan, the assassin of Weizhou, was promoted by Wang Yuan, he was also dissatisfied with Wang Yuan's recruitment of his soldiers, and both of them were dissatisfied with the prestige of Wang Yuan and the eunuchs, so they spread dissatisfaction among the army.
Due to Zhao Gou's unfair handling of things, nepotism, and meritorious service is not rewarded, but not punished, the emotions spread by Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan have been responded to by many people.
Miao Fu and his staff Wang Shixiu and the "Red Heart Army" led by Wang Junfu, Zhang Kui, and Ma Rouji agreed to kill Wang Yuan first, and then remove the eunuchs.
So Miao Fu informed Wang Yuan that there were thieves in Lin'an County, and hoped that Wang Yuan would agree to him to send troops to exterminate these thieves, lest they deal with the upcoming Chinese army.
At this time, Kanglu's attendants received a secret report that there was a document suspected of wanting to rebel, with the signature words "Commander Tian Charge, Commander Commander Jin Charge" - "Tian" is "Miao", and "Jin" is the code name of "Liu".
Kang Lu hurried to report closely to Zhao Gou.
When Zhao Gou learned of this, he was shocked and asked Kang Lu to hurry up and find Zhu Shengfei, and asked Kang Lu to inform Wang Yuan.
Kang Lu said that Miao Fu and others had recently gathered near Tianzhu Temple, and now they finally knew about their intentions, and informed Wang Yuan that Miao and Liu's so-called "thieves in the suburbs" were an excuse to let the soldiers go out.
So Wang Yuan prepared to ambush 500 elite soldiers outside Tianzhu Temple to capture Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan and others.
But Wang Yuan made a lot of calculations, but he didn't calculate that Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan would do it in advance.
Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan ordered Wang Shixiu to ambush the soldiers under the bridge in the north of the city, wait for Wang Yuan to retreat, and then rush up to drag him off his horse, and then claim that he had befriended the eunuchs to rebel, and Liu Zhengyan killed him with his own hands.
Subsequently, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan led people to surround Kanglu's residence and hunt down the eunuchs.
After slaughtering all the eunuchs they saw, the rebels led their troops into the siege of the palace with Wang Yuan's head, and the soldiers came to the city.
At this time, Zhao Gou also gradually got the news of the rebellion.
But the Song army, which guarded the palace gate, commanded Wu Zhan, had an affair with the rebels, guided Miao Fu's subordinates into the city, and shouted "Miao Fu does not live up to the country, only for the world to eliminate harm".
Kang Yunzhi, the governor of Hangzhou, took hundreds of officials and asked Song Zhaogou to go to the city tower to calm the army and the people, otherwise he would not be able to stop the rebellion.
Zhao Gou climbed the city tower and asked Miao Fu the reason for the rebellion with his troops.
Miao Fu saw Zhao Gou, still bowed down, and then sharply accused Zhao Gou and said: "Your Majesty trusts the eunuchs, and you can get a high position by befriending the eunuchs, Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan have not been exiled from the country, Wang Yuan cannot effectively resist when he encounters the enemy, but he has obtained the high position of the privy envoy because of his friendship with Kang Xu, we have made a lot of meritorious contributions, but we only serve as regimental training in remote counties, and now we have killed Wang Yuan, and hunted and killed the eunuchs outside, please Your Majesty will kill Kang Lu, Lan Gui, and Zeng Xue Xie three armies." ”
Zhao Gou replied: "If the eunuchs are at fault, they can be exiled to the island, and the generals should return to the camp as soon as possible." ”
But the rebels did not follow, and Zhao Gou had to kill Kang Lu and other eunuchs.
Zhao Gou had no choice but to use a bamboo basket to hang Kang Lu down the city and hand it over to the rebels.
As soon as Kanglu entered the city, he was immediately beheaded by the rebels.
At this time, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan also reacted, or it can also be said that their staff told them: "This matter can't be good, we must force Your Majesty to Zen position, otherwise, we can't end it." ”
Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan and others therefore questioned Zhao Gou: "Your Majesty's throne is not coming from the right way, if the second emperor returns in the future, how will he deal with himself?" ”
Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan and others said: "Because Your Majesty has no virtue, the Chinese army has gone south, and Your Majesty should follow the example of the emperor to apologize, so that the Chinese army may not go south." ”
Zhao Gou didn't want to abdicate, so he sent Zhu Shengfei to negotiate with Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan and others, wanting to change the conditions for the rebels.
Zhao Gou would be better if he didn't.
The more Zhao Gou was reluctant to give up his throne, the more Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan and others could not let Zhao Gou be the emperor, and then liquidate them.
Therefore, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan and others resolutely let Zhao Gou take the throne and cede his throne to his three-year-old son Zhao Yang.
Zhao Gou saw that the Zen position could not be spared, so he ordered Zhu Shengfei to announce the conditions for the abdication to Miao Fu - first, to treat the abdicated Zhao Gou like Zhao Ji of the Zen position, and the offerings needed to be rich; the second is that after abdicating the throne, things should be handled by the queen mother (Concubine Pan Xian) and the young monarch who ascended the throne; Third, after the edict is completed, all troops must return to the camp; Fourth, restrain the sergeants and refrain from looting, arson, or harassing the people.
Miao Fu agreed, and Zhao Gou immediately issued an edict to abdicate the throne, and ordered Li Bing, a squire of the military department, to draft an edict, saying: Since his accession to the throne, Dazhong has bullied the Great Song Dynasty, all because of my Zhao Gou, and I Zhao Gou can't bear to be miserable, so I announced my abdication, hoping that Dazhong can make a truce and reconcile.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Gou went to Xianzhong Temple to enter and exit from Zigu.
The next day, Concubine Pan Xian listened to the government, granted amnesty to the world, appointed Miao Fu as the envoy of Chengxuan and the commander of the imperial camp, appointed Liu Zhengyan as the observer envoy and the deputy commander of the imperial camp, and the other soldiers were innocent, and the abdicated Zhao Gou was "Rui Sheng Renxiao Emperor", and changed the name of Xianzhong Temple to Rui Sheng Palace, only 15 eunuchs were retained, and the rest were disbanded.
As a result, just as the Chinese army pounced on the Southern Song Dynasty like a tiger, Zhao Gou was forced to abdicate, and the big mess of the Southern Song Dynasty fell into the hands of Pan Xianfei, a woman with no experience in governance, a three-year-old child, and a few reckless and brainless martial artists......
