Top generals, especially generals with a very high winning rate like the old marshal Zong Ze, were rare in the Song Dynasty. Therefore, when a general of this level dies, he often receives rich gifts and favors from the imperial court.

Refer to the imperial court's posthumous gifts to the previous top generals of the main battle faction:

First of all, the master Dao, the imperial court made two gifts to him, one was given by Emperor Qinzong, and the other was given by Emperor Gaozong.

History of the Song Dynasty. It is recorded in the "Legend of the Seed Master" that the Qin Sect came to the memorial in person, wept in grief, and gave the opening ceremony and the three divisions...... In the middle of the Jianyan year, he was given the teacher Shaobao, and his nickname was "Zhongxian".

This is a title of a positive product, which can be described as a very good minister, and it cannot be added.

followed by Zhang Shuye, "History of the Song Dynasty. Uncle Zhang's Night Biography recorded that the obituary was given to the three divisions of the Kaifu Yi, and it was called "Zhongwen".

Yitong Sansi means that it is not the official of the three dukes and is subject to the three dukes, and the three dukes, Situ, Sikou, and Sikong.

Kaifu Yi and the three divisions were an official position in the Song Dynasty, that is to say, the gift after Uncle Zhang's death was only second only to the highly respected Seed Master Dao.

However, after the death of the old handsome Zong Ze, the gift was only a bachelor of the Guanwen Palace, a general doctor, and a loyal Jane.

In the Song Dynasty, the scholar of the Guanwen Palace was only a title of the third grade; And the general doctor is just a position under the four grades.

What is embarrassing is that before the old marshal Zong Ze was alive, he was already the deputy marshal of the Generalissimo's Mansion of the World's Soldiers and Horses, the head of the generals, and the same rank as the captain.

Generally speaking, after the death of an official, the imperial court will make a promotion gift, so that the official can die a dignified death.

However, after the death of Zong Ze. Not only did he not get a promotion from the imperial court. It has also been lowered several levels. This treatment. It can be said to be a disguised insult to the old handsome Zongze.

This practice is unprecedented and unheard of. If the old marshal knew about it in the spirit of heaven, how could he be embarrassed!

Chinese are accustomed to closing the coffin, that is, the gift made after the death of an official represents the imperial court's attitude towards the official and the evaluation of the official's actions during his lifetime.

The imperial court treated Zong Ze like this. Clear-eyed people can see at a glance how tired the emperor is of Zong Ze, so he will take such revenge after his death.

In terms of position, merit, seniority, etc., Zong Ze is definitely not inferior to the two of Seed Master Dao and Zhang Shuye, but why is the evaluation of the Imperial Court so far behind?

Or you can ask what Zong Ze did to make Emperor Gaozong feel so bored.

What is the difference between Zong Ze and Seed Master Dao and Zhang Shuye?

In the "History of the Song Dynasty", volume 335, and the 94th biography of the Song Dynasty, there is such a dialogue:

When he saw it, he said, "Today's things." What do you think?"

The teacher said: "The Jurchens don't know soldiers, how can they go deep into the human realm alone. And how can it be good?"

He said, "It's been done."

He said: "Your Majesty is the minister who is in the army, and the rest is not what he dares to know."

The background of this conversation is when the Jin soldiers first besieged Bianliang City.

At that time, the seed master Daoqin Wang rescued the driver, and the emperor asked the seed master: "What do you think of Jin Bing?" The answer of the seed master was: "The Jin soldiers are alone and have committed a taboo, do you want to let them go?" Emperor Qinzong reminded the planters: "I have made peace with them. And the seed master Dao's response to this was: "I'm just helping you fight, and I don't want to ask about the rest of the things, and I don't dare to know about the Dao." ”

A good sentence "Yu Fei dares to know", this is the attitude that the two of them, Master Dao and Zhang Shuye, share.

This attitude, in detail, means that when the emperor makes an inquiry, he expresses his opinion appropriately, and once the emperor has made up his mind, he unconditionally carries out the holy will.

For such cadres, which emperor does not like it? Therefore, it is completely understandable that the imperial court highly regards them

So what kind of cadre is Zongze? From the History of the Song Dynasty. The three things recorded in the Biography of Zong Ze can show Zong Ze's character and deeds.

The first thing: Dengyuan Yu six years into the Shidi. The court is extremely disadvantaged, and the examiner is evil and upright, and he is at the end of the line.

When Zong Ze was in the Jinshi exam, he was outspoken about the current evils, which aroused the disgust of the examiner and ranked him at the bottom of the list.

The second thing: King Shikang opened the Generalissimo's Mansion, and the soldiers would be famous. Zelu crossed the river to see the king, saying that the capital had been besieged for a long time, and the reinforcement could not be delayed. Countersigned the Privy Council, Cao Fuyun, sealed the edict of Qinzong, and went to Beijing to make peace. Ze said: "The golden man is cunning, and he wants to pay my teacher." The hope of the monarch's father to come to the aid, how hungry and thirsty, it is advisable to urgently lead the army straight to the abyss, and enter the base one after another to relieve the siege of the capital. In case the enemy has a conspiracy, then our soldiers are already under the city. Wang Boyan waited for the difficulty, and persuaded the king to send Ze first, since Ze could not plan in the palace.

In the later stage of the Jingkang Revolution, Zhao Gou, the king of Kang, was reluctant to send troops to the rescue of King Qin of Bianliang City, but Zong Ze repeatedly insisted, and Zhao Gou had to let Zong Ze raise troops to go first, and he fled to Zhenjiang.

The third thing: Shi Jin sent people to Kaifeng Mansion in the name of making pseudo-Chu, Ze said: "This name is to make it, and I am really looking for it." "Detain them and beg them to be beheaded. Ze said: "The country has been peaceful for 200 years, and it does not know the military revolution, and it is trustworthy to take the birth of the enemy country as a trustworthy and undoubted." Not only is it not a strict attack plan, but it has a real desire to think about the enemy, and the scholar does not think it is crazy, but he thinks it is delusional, which leads to the disaster of the day before yesterday. What Zhang Bangchang and Geng Nanzhong did, His Majesty saw it in person. If the Jin people are hypocritical, they will come to look for the truth and falsehood, and the ministers will beg to behead them in order to break their treachery. And His Majesty was confused by people's words, so he ordered the relocation of the annex, preferential treatment, and the ministers did not dare to obey the edict to show that the country was weak. "Shang Nai is a pro-Zhi Ze, and he actually indulges him. The speakers have implicit goodwill, and they all use Ze's detention of the envoy as wrong.

The "pseudo-Chu" of the Jin envoy Zhang Bangchang was caught by Zong Ze and asked Gaozong to behead him, but Gaozong not only did not allow it, but also asked Zong Ze to send the Jin envoy to a foreign embassy.

At this time, Zong Ze's answer was: "The ministers dare not obey the edict to show that the country is weak." ”

Forced to be helpless, Gaozong had no choice but to reply to Zong Ze: "You can do it yourself, whatever you want." ”

Of course, in addition to these three things, Zong Ze also did many things that caused the emperor's strong dissatisfaction, including "Ze invited to return to Beijing for more than 20 years", asked Emperor Gaozong to go north, and so on.

And Emperor Gaozong really didn't know how to reply to Zong Ze, a stubborn old man, so he had to use a trick that only faint monarchs in history would use: "Every time it is suppressed by latent goodness."

In short, to summarize Zong Ze's conduct in one sentence is "disobedient".

It is this kind of disobedience that makes the old handsome Zongze unable to get the respect and favor that Emperor Gaozong and the small court of Yingtianfu deserve after his death

What is happening in this world is truly amazing.

As the saying goes, "the retribution of good and evil follows you like a shadow; Harvest the cause and the effect, and repay the reward.

Emperor Gaozong and his staff, in order to get out of the moment, made some undeserved moves against the dead old marshal Zongze.

What I didn't expect was that it was these abnormal actions that brought a series of disasters to the young Emperor Gaozong that lasted for several years...... (To be continued......)
