Renzong's death
Zhao Shu got up all of a sudden! yes, I didn't expect that! He immediately got into the sedan chair and entered the palace. In other words: it's useless to hide, so I just come out!
From this moment on, Zhao Shu's virtuous name has been praised all over the world. He regarded the throne as a disaster, how similar he was to the sage Yao Shunyu who refused to take over as emperor in ancient times! Especially on the day he entered the palace, there were only more than 30 people in the whole family plus slaves, and the luggage was very simple, no different from the common people. What is special is that the collection is rich, the house is full of boxes, and the classics are complete.
Very much in line with the value standards of the civil government group! They preached everywhere that Zhao Shu was really born and the most suitable person to be the emperor! In fact, they are all wrong, this is a hungry wolf whose desires have been suppressed for too long! This desire is constantly suppressed... At this time, the position of the prince proved to be adding fuel to the fire, making this slut even more uneasy, suffering from gains and losses. Human nature dictates that only when you care too much about something will you behave abnormally! This can explain what happened to Lu later...
At this time, no one noticed this, including Emperor Renzong, who had rich experience and countless connoisseurs. He really loves this adopted son who has been adopted and continues to adopt now, and he has always been with him since Zhao Shu was accepted into the palace.
On September 1, Zhao Shu entered the defense envoy of Qizhou and the prince of Julu County. On December 23rd and 27th, accompanied by all the chief executives, close attendants, three envoys, Taiwan officials, chief military officers, clansmen, and horses, Zhao Zhen took Zhao Shu twice into Longtu Pavilion and Tianzhang Pavilion to visit the ancestral relics - to help him on the throne of the prince, and send him another ride, so that he can sit firmly...
On that day, Renzong looked back at the past, caressed things, and remembered that he had lived in the world for nearly 53 years, and since he was born, there have been constant disasters, and even who his biological mother is has changed... What a monotonous and complicated life this is! It has been more than 40 years since he ascended the throne, and it is still today. The Great Khitan, Western Xia, Dali, Tubo, Goryeo, Jiaozhi, and all the surrounding countries have coexisted peacefully. The country does not know the sword soldiers, the people live and work in peace and contentment, Kaifeng City is unprecedentedly prosperous, no one can deny that the people of the Great Song Dynasty are living a good life that all previous dynasties and dynasties could not dream of.
That's my imprint... Surrounded by the courtiers, the 53-year-old Zhao Zhen smiled and ordered a banquet to have a night with the courtiers. That's life... That night, the monarchs and ministers enjoyed together, and drank until late at night, and Shi Zairenzong specially called Prime Minister Han Qi to come forward and personally drank a large glass of deer fetal wine for him. Han Qi drank it all - the first meritorious servant!
On January 9, the 8th year of Jiayou (1063), the 6-year-old eldest son Yelu Jun of Liao Daozong was named the king of Liang.
On February 11, Emperor Renzong began to fall ill. On the 14th, the ministers of the two prefectures were directly brought into the emperor's bedroom, and the west pavilion of the Ouchi Funing Hall visited the sick.
Han Qi and the others were stunned by what they saw. This is the world's supreme bedroom! But inside the curtain was only a dull-colored plain futon, and it looked as if it hadn't been replaced for a long time. Renzong looked at them incessantly, and said very calmly, "I live in the palace, and I am so self-respecting." This is also the anointing blood of the people, and it can be lightly spent." Think about how luxurious you spend your days on weekdays, are you ashamed?
After that, Renzong's condition improved slightly, and by March. On the 22nd, the emperor also presided over the 13th imperial examination during his reign in the Yanhe Palace. All signs that he survived another catastrophe? Until the night of March 29...
On that day, Renzong was very normal, and his diet and daily life during the day were the same as usual. Until you fall asleep. In the middle of the night, he suddenly sat up, and the chamberlain hurriedly stepped forward to help him. He has been incoherent in his speech. As if he had a premonition, he directly ordered to invite the queen. When Empress Cao came, Renzong was speechless, and could only point to his heart with his finger, his face full of pain!
All kinds of healing were ineffective, and in the middle of the night, Zhao Zhen finally closed his eyes forever in the Funing Palace, where he had lived for many years. Song Renzong Zhao Zhen died! He was 54 years old. Only then did everyone realize that it was a dark day, and the moon could not be seen for the whole night...
Emperor Renzong reigned for more than 41 years, which was the longest reign among the 18 monarchs of the 16 emperors and 2 kings of the Song Dynasty. Renzong Benji commented on him at the end of the year: "During his reign of 42 years, if the ruler is lazy, he will be contemptuous of those who are cruel." The criminal law seems to be lax, and there are many fair people in prison. The country is not without its evils, but it is not enough to rule the world. There is no villain in the court, and it is not enough to win the good and the like. The compassion of the monarchs and ministers, the loyalty of the government, has the foundation of cultivating the Song Dynasty for more than 300 years. The children and grandchildren will do what they do and tame the chaos. "Biography" said, "Being a king, stopping at benevolence", the emperor is honest and unashamed", this is a true comment, no matter who has any unique opinions, can not erase the uniqueness of Zhao Zhen as a "benevolent" sect. Reading through the history books, there are also Yuanrenzong, Mingrenzong, and Qingrenzong in all dynasties.
Yuan Renzong can ignore it, he took over the throne from his brother and promised to pass it on to his nephew, but it was his own son who ascended the throne after his death. is not trustworthy, even the most basic person is not enough, what kind of "benevolence" to talk about
With only 10 months in power, what contribution can Akihito make to the world? In the history books, it is said that he developed production and rested with the people. It's funny, a 10-month break can make the people breathe a few breaths?
Qingrenzong can make the Tianli Sect and the White Lotus Sect revolt everywhere, and the century-old prosperity of Kangqian will end in his hands. and opened the prelude to China's century-old national humiliation. This kind of "benevolence" is basically a laugh for eternity.
Only Song Renzong Zhao Zhen! When he died, the soldiers and civilians in Kaifeng City boycotted the market and mourned together, for several days, even beggars and children bought paper money, burned in front of the palace and wept bitterly, they cried not only a feudal emperor, but also a father and brother full of human feelings. Even the Liao Emperor Yelu Hongji treasured Zhao Zhen's posthumous appearance, "Feng his royal appearance is like an ancestor", the benevolent may not be invincible, but it will always remain in people's hearts!
In the past half of Jiazi's time, Emperor Renzong can be said to be super merciful to his courtiers and people. He once played in the Houhua Garden, where there were many concubines and waiters, and he looked back frequently as he walked, as if he was looking for something, but he never said it. It wasn't until I returned to the palace that I hurriedly said to fetch water, and I was dying of thirst all the way!
The concubines were puzzled: why didn't the official family ask for water outside, making them thirsty like this?
Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly: I said that I turned back several times, but I didn't see the people who served the water. If water had been asked for at that time, would not the ruler have suffered this suffering? So bear with it and go back to the palace...
Song Renzonggui was the most prosperous dynasty and the emperor of the most prosperous period in history, but he was frugal all his life. Not only is it so simple in the bedroom, but even the diet has always been simple. History: At a palace banquet, there was a plate of fresh food, which was 28 crabs. Renzong asked: How much is each? A: 1,000 yuan each. Renzong was furious on the spot: I have been warning you not to be too extravagant, but I don't listen! It's 28,000 yuan, how can I eat it? From the beginning to the end of that meal, the emperor did not touch a single crab...
Another time, he suddenly wanted to eat roast mutton in the middle of the night, and after thinking about it, he still pressed it hard. What do others ask for? He said that once he wanted to eat, it would become a routine, and every night he would kill sheep in the imperial kitchen to prepare. Killing people every day like this, how can I bear it!
In his life, although he has countless amounts of money in his hands, he has never dared to spend a penny indiscriminately, and he has never dared to build a super palace like his father and ancestors...
Speaking of this, the portraits of the emperors of the Song Dynasty flashed in front of my eyes, and every time I pondered, I felt that the temperament of every emperor was expressed in his appearance. For example, Zhao Kuangyin, the founder of the country, sat on the dragon throne, his eyes were slightly closed, the twilight was heavy, his joy and anger were invisible, and he was not angry and arrogant. That is a person who has everything in mind, looks at the world, and lifts weights like light.
Zhao Guangyi of Song Taizong is a standing statue, with his hands in his sleeves, his posture is dignified, and he smiles slightly. It seems to be polite and idealistic. This is a literati emperor. No matter how far he goes, at least he works hard.
Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng has wide eyebrows, beautiful hair, and joy, and he has turned evil into good fortune in his life, and there is no disaster, maybe he really came to reincarnate with Tianzun, so that he has been living in the world of his own immortals...
Looking at Song Renzong Zhao Zhen again, wearing a red robe, sitting on the throne, leaning forward slightly, his shoulders were a little raised, he looked weak and overthinking, and the most regrettable thing was his eyes. Among the 16 emperors and 2 kings of the Song Dynasty, only these eyes were pure and pure, staring into the distance like a child. This is the truth of his life. The emperor was just his profession, and he never wanted to be one, nor did he have fun.
In the depths of his soul, there is a pure land, even though he is in the center of the most treacherous and volatile power vortex in the world, after 42 years of ups and downs, he has not been able to change his kind and generous character. He is an outlier, leaving his own unique mark in China's 5,000-year-old history of ruthlessness and meritocracy... (To be continued......)
