On April 14th, the biggest happy event for Zhao Heng himself and the Great Song Empire came - the emperor had a son!

Previously, Zhao Heng had 5 sons, but they all died. At this time, his sixth son Zhao Yingfu (the future Song Renzong Zhao Zhen) was born, and Zhao Hengji was 43 years old this year, a real middle-aged child.

Officially, Zhao Ying's mother is Liu E, who is 44 years old. But there's something else to be said about it...

Zhao Heng really loves Liu E, and has wanted to make her the queen for many years. But she always has 2 fatal injuries on her body that cannot be repaired: 1 was born and 2 was not born.

Regarding the first, Zhao Heng falsified files more than once to legally enhance her status. said that her family was originally from Taiyuan, and her father and ancestors were senior generals of five generations, and she was displaced by the war and went to Sichuan. But who believes it?

Secondly, in view of the fact that Zhao Heng had 5 sons, he must be in good health. The problem lies with Liu E herself... But a truly strong life is never "impossible" 3 words. Didn't Zhao Yingli be born? Although there is another thing to say about who is the real "child"...

Song Renzong's real biological mother is actually a 24-year-old maid surnamed Li next to Liu E, the one who was named Concubine Chen at the moment before she died... But Liu E has such ability, everyone knows the way, but no one dares to say it. The only time was in 1032, the year when Concubine Li Chen died, and the then prime minister Lu Yijian dared to speak out to the then Empress Dowager Liu... The next year, Empress Dowager Liu E and Empress Dowager Liu died, and someone told the truth to Song Renzong at that time (this person is certainly not Bao Zheng. The folk have always circulated the legend of 'the tanuki for the prince' on this story. It is said that Liu E exchanged a dead civet cat for the son born to the Li family. Later, this strange case was investigated by Yin Baozheng of Kaifeng Mansion. Emperor Zhao Zhen then took back his suffering mother. It's all made up by opera novels. There is also a theory that this story was made up, but it was actually a satire on the origin of Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen. Because of the biological mother of the orthodox emperor who was defeated in the Battle of Tumubao and captured by his opponents, the history books only record the 'Ichinomiya people' and do not give any explanation. Later, the 9 emperors of the Ming Dynasty from Chenghua to Chongzhen were all descendants of Zhu Qizhen, and they were all in a mess, and there were few good emperors. Later generations made up the story of the Song Dynasty 'tanuki for the prince' to satirize Zhu Qizhen as a wild breed)

In May, there was civil strife in Goryeo. After the death of the 6th king Chengzong Wangzhi, he was succeeded by his nephew Wang Yu, but Wang Zhi had a favorite concubine Huangfu and had a son with Jin Zhiyang. After that, the two conspired day and night to use this son to ascend the throne on behalf of Wang Yu. At this time, Goryeo was in the middle. Wang Yu inquired about the wisdom and martial arts of his brother Daliangyuan, and was jealous of the imperial concubine, forced him to become a monk, and sent someone to assassinate him, and the monks of Lai Temple were spared. At this time, Wang Yu was seriously ill, and for the empire not to be left behind, he secretly summoned Cai Zhongshun and passed down the edict of Wang Xun. Cai Zhongshun sent people to welcome Wang Xun into the court, and on the other hand, he found a military general named Kang Zhao to join the Weijing Division. Kang Zhao led his troops to Dongzhou, and his subordinates Wei Cong and Cui Chang persuaded Kang Zhao that "now the king is seriously ill." It's up to us. We should go slowly to observe the incident" and Kang Zhao's father wrote a secret letter in the imperial capital of Kaekyung (now Kaesong, North Korea) and hid it in a bamboo cane, asking someone to shave his hair and become a monk, and rushed to report to his son, "The king has died, and the murderers are doing things." Quickly raise troops to come" Kang Zhaoxin thought it was true, and led 5,000 horses to rush to the starry night, and went to Pingzhou to know that the king of Dao Wang Yu had not yet died, and he couldn't help but be depressed. At this time, his subordinates advised him not to do anything. So Kang Zhao was ruthless. Abolish Wang Chan as the Duke of the Kingdom, and soon assassinated Wang Chan in Jicheng County. Killed Kim Zhiyang, exiled the imperial concubine, and proclaimed Wang Xun as the 8th king of Goryeo. He made a stay in Xijing (now Pyongyang, North Korea).

Since 992, Xiao Hengde's war on Goryeo, the king of Goryeo has been pleaded guilty to. Since Wang Zhi was canonized by the Great Khitan in 995, Goryeo has been a subject state of the Great Khitan. Now that such a serious civil strife has occurred in the subject country, of course Liao Shengzong, who has just been in power for a short time, will not sit idly by. On the 28th, an order was given to prepare for the Eastern Crusade.

June. 1,290 people from Hezhong Mansion jointly requested Zhao Heng, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, to go to Fenyin to sacrifice at the place. On July 24, more than 30,000 people from all walks of life in the Great Song Dynasty were listed three times.

Sacrificing Fenyin is actually a "Zen land" ceremony corresponding to the "sealing Zen" of worshipping the sky. More than 2 years ago, Zhao Heng went to Sheshou Mountain to worship when he was in Mount Tai. But the relationship between Fenyin and the "sacrificial land" is too close. To be authentic is only it. Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty got a treasure tripod there, he built a Houtu Temple and went to worship in person. It's been a routine ever since...

On August 1, Zhao Heng issued an edict next spring, when the earth recovers, he will go to Fenyin to sacrifice to the soil. On the 2nd, Chen Yaosu and Li Zongge were appointed as the main and deputy envoys of the Fen Yin longitude system. On the 4th, Ming Chao Zhen, Yang Yi and others formulated the ceremony of the land sacrifice ceremony.

On the 8th, the emperor and his close ministers studied in the Longtu Pavilion. The emperor was reading the "Yuanhe (Tang Xianzong Li Chun's Year Name) National Accounting Book", and the third envoy Ding Wei took the opportunity to say: "During the Tang Dynasty, Jianghuai transported 400,000 rice every year. Now it can transport 5 million meters per year. The treasury is full, "the emperor is overjoyed", this is the blessing of the ancestors of heaven and earth, and it is also the power of Aiqing"

On the 21st, Liao Shengzong Yelu Longxu and his younger brother Yelu Longyou, the king of Chu, stayed in Beijing and led an army of 400,000 to conquer Goryeo.

On September 10, the Great Khitan canonized Li Deming as the king of Xia.

On October 13, Ding Wei was responsible for the supply of grain and grass along the way to the Fenyin Shrine Land. On the 15th, Ding Wei presented 50 volumes of "Dazhong Xiangfu Feng Zen Record" Zhao Heng personally made a preface and hid it in the secret pavilion.

On November 10, the Liao lord's personal army crossed the Yalu River. Kang Zhao was defeated and surrendered to Tongzhou. On the 11th, Kang Zhao divided his troops into three, lined up across the water, and defeated the Liao army, so he had the heart to underestimate the enemy. Unexpectedly, he was attacked by Yelu's enemy, and Kang Zhao and his deputy general Li Li were captured. The Liao army pursued and killed for dozens of miles all the way, beheading more than 30,000 people. On the 13th, the prefectures of Tong, Huo, Gui, and Ning all fell. Xiao Pai was arrested and defeated the Goryeo army at Nugudaling. On the 16th, the king of Goryeo sent an envoy to ask for surrender and allowed him. With Ma Baoyou and Wang Ba as the main and deputy Kaijing, Yi Rin led 1,000 troops to escort Ma Baoyou to take office. At the same time, Lu Yi and Liu Jing were sent to Goryeo Xijing to persuade them to surrender. The Goryeo guards had already written the surrender table, but the reinforcements sent by Wang Xun, Cai Wen, arrived, burned the surrender table, killed the envoy, and wanted to defend Xijing. At the same time, the Goryeo general Zhuo Sizheng also killed 10 people, including Han Xisun, an envoy sent by the Liao lord to persuade him to surrender, and repelled Ma Baoyou. Yi Rin led the army to attack, and Zhuo Si was fleeing to Xijing. The Liao lord was furious and personally led his army to attack Xijing, but he did not conquer on the 5th. On the 25th, Xiao Paiji led his troops to attack Kaegyong, the capital of Goryeo. Wang Xun, the king of Goryeo, abandoned the city overnight and fled, and Xiao Pai burned Kaijing, and chased him to Qingjiang and returned.

In December, Sun Zheng performed a performance that analyzed 10 unreasonable manifestations of sacrificing heaven and earth from the perspective of a feudal scribe, and criticized the turbulent auspicious events in the Great Song Dynasty. But the emperor ignored it. 12th. Former Prime Minister Xiang Minzhong was appointed to stay in Tokyo.

On the first day of the first month of the 4th year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1011), the Liao lord ordered a rebellion from the Goryeo Banshi and the cities that were surrendered.

On the 23rd, the mighty sacrificial brigade walked out of Kaifeng. On February 13, he came to Baoding County. 14 days of fasting. On the 17th, the ceremony of 'Fenyin Shrine' was completed, and the scale and ceremony were the same as those of Mount Tai more than 2 years ago. Amnesty on the 18th.

After sacrificing to the heavens, worshipping the earth, and the ancestors... Emperor Zhenzong of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Heng, then went straight to the mausoleum...

On March 6, Yelu Longyun (i.e., Han Derang), the prime minister of Liao and the king of Jin, died of illness. At this time, it was less than 16 months before the death of Empress Dowager Xiao, and before he died, he recommended Yelu Shiliang.

On the 11th, Zhao Heng went to the home of the former prime minister Lu Mengzheng and asked Lu Mengzheng which son he was going to recommend. Meng Zheng replied: "The courtiers are all talented. Only the minister's nephew, Lu Yijian, is the talent of the prime minister."

On the 23rd, Emperor Zhenzong of the Great Song Dynasty Zhao Heng personally paid tribute to his grandfather Zhao Hongyin's Anling, his uncle Zhao Kuangyin's Yongchang Mausoleum, and his father Zhao Guangyi's Yongxi Mausoleum.

On the 26th, the lord of Liao named Yelu Mulu as the privy envoy of the Northern Court and the king of Han. Yelu Shiliang is the king of the northern courtyard. Liu Shen was the privy envoy of the Southern Yuan.

On April 1, the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty returned to Kaifeng. On the 24th, Lu Mengzheng died of illness.

May 22nd. Emperor Zhenzong of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Heng, issued an edict to each of the five mountains to be crowned emperor. Ordered Xiang Minzhong to be the envoy of Wuyue and go to pay tribute.

On March 20, the 5th year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1012), Yelu Longyou, the king of Chu, migrated to the king of Qi and stayed in Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo. On April 3, the king of Goryeo sent Cai Zhongshun to serve in Liao. Please be the same as before. The lord of Liao ordered the king to come to the court to see him.

On May 11, Liu E was named Concubine De.

In August, Yelu Longyou, the younger brother of Liao Shengzong and the king of Qi, died of illness. On the 24th, the king of Goryeo inquired about sending Tian to offer his offerings to Liao. Called sick can not be headed. The lord of Liao was furious and ordered to take back the land east of the Yalu River, which was given to the Goryeo Kingdom more than 9 years ago, and belonged to the six states of Xinghua, Tong, Long, Tie, Guo, and Gui of the Jurchen.

In September, Wang Qinruo was full of might. Knock down many people in a row. The first to suffer was Zhao Anren, the deputy prime minister of the Governor's Political Affairs. It is said that one day, Zhao Hengchun proudly came out of the harem and went directly to the East Mansion to find the prime minister, and the question was very old-fashioned: How can I make Liu E the queen? Unfortunately, it was quiet in the political hall that day, Prime Minister Wang Dan asked for sick leave, and only Zhao Anren was on duty. Zhao Heng asked: Aiqing thought about it, how to operate this thing? Zhao Anren shook his head directly, "The Liu family is from a humble background, and it is not suitable to be a queen." Shen is the daughter of Shen Yilun, the former prime minister of the dynasty, please consider it, it is very suitable for her to be the queen" Zhao Heng is depressed, is Liu E really not the queen's life? One day later, Zhao Heng and Wang Qinruo chatted and talked about who could be the elder minister in the court, and Wang Qinruo replied, "Zhao Anren." He used to be the doorman of Prime Minister Shen, and he still doesn't forget his old virtues, and often thinks about repaying his kindness" Zhao Heng became angry when he heard it! Bullying the king in front of him is an unforgivable sin! Zhao Anren's participation in the governor's affairs was dismissed!

The second to be spoofed were Prime Minister Wang Dan and Hanlin scholar Li Zongge. In view of Li Zongge's conscientious work and outstanding work, Wang Dan wanted to promote him to the post of deputy prime minister of the Governor's Office, and the report had been filled out, waiting for it to be submitted when he went to court tomorrow. But this matter was known by the omniscient Wang Qinruo. And it happened that night. Wang Qinruo "Make a bet with Your Majesty, Li Zongge is going to get rich, but in fact, Wang Dan is going to get rich, but the truth is that the emperor is going to lose money..." Wang Qinruo explained, "Li Zongge owes Wang Dan a lot of money, and he can't pay it back at all, but Wang Dan is in a hurry to use the money, what should I do?" So Wang Dan wanted to use his power to promote Li Zongge's official and let him double his salary, wouldn't it be good to repay the money? But at the end of the day, you're the one who suffers..."

Zhao Heng took a deep breath and waited for the morning of the next day. Sure enough, Wang Danzhen handed over the promotion report. The consequences are very serious, Wang Dan's impression score is deducted, because the score is too high, but Li Hanlin's dream of being the prime minister has been stranded, and he has been living in the Hanlin Academy ever since. What is particularly frightening is that the vacant position of the governor cannot always be vacant, and there must be a person on the post. In this way, good luck fell out of thin air and was obtained by Ding Wei, the original third envoy. The key step of Ding Da's promotion from Ji Xiang to the East and West Mansions is so easy...

In July, Ding Wei was appointed as the Governor of the Council. The third envoy was Lin T, another of the "Five Ghosts".

To sum up, what are the benefits of these things for Wang Qinruo? He brought down Zhao Anren, spoofed Wang Dan, ruined Li Zongge, and even stunned Zhao Heng, what did he get? Looking back on history, he didn't get anything, he still served as his privy envoy, and Ding Wei was never his person. This exposes his deepest essence - harming others and not benefiting himself! As long as others are uncomfortable, he will be happy, and work hard for others' suffering, what a thrilling and exciting thing!

On the night of October 8, Zhao Heng dreamed again. I dreamed of the fairy brother who came to predict when the "Book of Heaven Descended" again, "Now I have sent your ancestor Zhao Xuanlang to meet you on the same day, you have to worship him like the Tang Dynasty worshiped Emperor Xuanyuan (Li Er)" The next night, the fairy continued to speak, this time it was Zhao Xuanlang himself who said, "I want to sit on the seat facing west and east, and then place 6 seats diagonally" Zhao Heng is happy, it is obvious that the ancestors are very mixed in the sky, and 7 immortals go down to earth together, which is great! So he opened a dojo in the Yeonenjeon Hall in the Imperial Palace.

In the early morning of October 24th, an exciting moment finally appeared, and the gods descended alive! The southeast is dazzling with golden light, and the dojo is filled with a strange fragrance, first the honor guard of the gods descended from the sky, Zhao Heng bowed, and in a cloud of yellow mist, Zhao Xuanlang's dress was like Yuan Shi Tianzun... There are also 6 immortals seated together... When the ancestors and grandchildren met, they were very affectionate, Zhao Heng was given to sit, drank white jade soup, and talked about life with the gods. Zhao Xuanlang "I have gone down to earth 3 times, the first time was one of the 9 emperors, and I am the common ancestor of all people surnamed Zhao. The second time I went down to earth, it was Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor! You all read the "Historical Records" and think that the emperor is the son of Shaodian? Wrong! That's Shaodian's wife who sensed heaven and earth and gave birth to me! The third time I went down was in the Later Tang Dynasty, that is, Zhao Kuangyin "talked with each other for a while, and the immortals rode the clouds into the sky...

Compared with the Tang and Song dynasties, it is clear who is higher and who is lower. At that time, out of various considerations, Li Shimin put on top of the famous generals of the Li family in Longxi, such as Li Xin, Li Guang, and Li Ling, the highest and unfathomable one in the history of Chinese civilization - the founder of Taoism, Emperor Xuanyuan of the Tang Dynasty, Taishang Laojun, and Laozi Li Er! But everyone knows that Lu Dao is tantamount to raping Lao Jun, and Li Er didn't agree to it personally!

But the Song Dynasty was different, who could see their ancient ancestors with their own eyes? And still drinking tea and chatting? And more importantly, in Zhao Xuanlang's words, the Zhao family's background is 10,000 times higher than that of the Li family! My Zhao family is the reincarnation of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor! That is the ancestors of all the people of Jiuzhou, together with the Xiongnu, Xianbei and other foreign races, and all the descendants of Yan and Huang! Now there is no tablet that can surpass Zhao Heng, which is truly unprecedented! Unless you dare to claim that you are the reincarnation of the world-shattering Pangu God!

On the 25th, an amnesty was granted to the world, and retired officials received a full salary for one year. Even ordinary people have benefited, and their agricultural taxes have been greatly reduced... (To be continued......)
