The Imperial Pharmacy has come to report several times: taking medicine has no effect, and I have started to use Ai...

It hurts a lot, but Song Zhezong lost the sensation of his body, and he didn't feel the pain until he was fifty strong, and he couldn't bear it immediately after feeling the pain. He stayed up all night and felt extremely tired in the morning. At this time, it was dawn, and he had no will, and the ministers of the ruling government stayed up all night and began to go home to rest...

The body has reached this point, and anyone with a little sense should prepare for what is behind him. Song Zhezong! You really should keep Zhangdun and do a few most important things! Fate gave you a chance, but unfortunately you couldn't take it!

On the 11th, the ministers were led by Zeng Bu into the inner court, and they met Song Zhezong again. Historical records: At this time, Song Zhezong wore a white horned crown, wore a shoulder, and sat on the bed. That is to say: he can no longer dress up and be elevated to the table as he did the day before... He was thinner, sickly and haggard, and his face darkened, but he was still delicate and calm. His vomiting was better, he was able to speak, he discussed his illness with Zeng Bu, asked some prayers and amnesty, and dispersed again...

"Heaven and Buddha take it, but suffer the blame" God has given you the opportunity to redeem your fate, what a generous luxury! But if you give up, you can't blame anything else...

January 12th, Destiny Day has arrived! The ministers remained in the palace, and at the fifth watch, when the sky was about to dawn, news suddenly came from the Imperial Medicine Institute - the ministers hurried to the Funing Palace. Song Zhezong's condition changed rapidly! I've been in first aid since the fourth watch, and it's very dangerous at this time!

When they arrived at the Funing Palace, they found that a curtain had hung down from the palace gate, which was a moat that no foreign minister could cross - there was a queen or queen mother in the palace. Zhang Dian, Zeng Bu and the others were cold, which meant that they would not be able to see Song Zhezong again no matter what. And who the crown prince is has not yet been determined, this is the most important thing! They couldn't interfere, and they couldn't even hear what Song Zhezong's last words were...

And on the other side of the bamboo curtain, inside the Funing Palace, an old woman finally appeared - the Empress Dowager! She had been hiding in the depths of the palace before. No matter whether Song Zhezong was sick, seriously ill, seeing people, or critically ill, she endured it and never showed up! It wasn't until this time when Song Zhezong was dying and looking to die that she suddenly appeared! The timing is as accurate and timely as when the edict of the Empress Dowager Gao was recovered earlier!

In the Funing Palace inside the curtain, Song Zhezong was lying on the bed, breathing weakly and sweating, which was not surprising or terrible in the eyes of the Empress Dowager Xiang. In her life, she has seen at least 3 such people who are seriously ill to death - Song Yingzong, Song Shenzong, and Empress Dowager Gao. They are her father-in-law, husband, mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and wife. She witnessed the transformation of death throughout the whole process, so that she can accurately grasp the loss of Song Zhezong's life today. Until this point, she remained silent...

Because the last hurdle has not yet come, there is still the last hurdle that has not passed!

Soon, the people she was waiting for came. Song Zhezong's biological mother, Concubine Zhu, cried bitterly all the way and rushed over. At this point, she rushed over! Obviously late! Song Zhezong's eyes were dilated, and he could still recognize that this was his mother, what did he want to say. But the body is out of control, and I can't say anything... Concubine Zhu was in pain, and cried and threw herself on her son on the hospital bed!

Life and death, human tragedy, behind them. The Empress Dowager Xiang still looked at it coldly, observing carefully. At this time, she finally determined that Song Zhezong had completely lost the ability to express.

Empress Dowager Xiang suddenly grabbed Concubine Zhu and pulled her from Song Zhezong. Pulled aside and said—"He's spoken to me"

"He... What did he say" Concubine Zhu in grief was very ignorant, she was about to cry stupidly, what did her son say just now? Did you tell the Empress Dowager Xiang? Did you hear it yourself? Lots of questions. She asked reflexively, still unaware of the danger.

Empress Dowager Xiang was very solemn, word by word - "Let me establish King Duan" These 5 words woke up Concubine Zhu like a slap, King Duan is the 11th son of Zhao Ji and Song Shenzong, and his biological mother Chen. is usually very well-behaved and respects Concubine Zhu, but at this time, he was suddenly appointed emperor, which is incredible! Because Concubine Zhu is not only Song Zhezong's son, she also has another one - King Jian, Zhao Xiang! Even if Song Zhezong has no children, and his brother is the last brother, he can't take the turn of others, only Zhao Yi!

But at this time, he said to the Queen Mother: Song Zhezong said to her personally just now that he wants to make Zhao Ji the emperor!

What does it mean to regret nothing? A few days ago, when there was a constant interruption, Zhang Dian sent you the edict that had been written, and you didn't agree... As a result, the Empress Dowager Gao was not abolished, and even the Empress Dowager Xiang was saved! Now you are watching and listening to the Xiang clan making trouble in front of you, but you can't speak, and you can't stop it—Zhezong, do you regret it?

A few days ago, he ran all the way to his son to stop the edict, and now he was bullied by the Empress Dowager, and the hope of another biological son ascending the throne was immediately slim - Concubine Zhu, do you regret it?

History doesn't record their mood, so you can't guess. After experiencing this kind of naked lie and trick of deceiving people with the dignity of the Queen Mother, Concubine Zhu was not angry and had no idea of redeeming it, but was stunned, then lowered her head and turned around and ran away, even her son who was dying and died soon threw it away and ran away...

Why did she run? Judging from the fact that she was oppressed for a long time, but turned to speak for the people who bullied her, she is a deep-rooted, incorrigible masochist. Her background and her experience determine that she is just a follower of social norms, even if she is wronged and bullied, she is used to enduring...

Only the makers of the norms do not comply with the norms! Such as to the Queen Mother! The woman watched the enemy run away, then turned her eyes back to stare at Song Zhezong, swallowed the last breath, and turned around and issued a series of orders-order: The ministers outside the palace will be met. Order: All princes enter the palace. Order: For the small funeral of the Emperor of Daxing...

The most important thing is the first point, which she knows very well: there are thorns in the ministers, and the new law group in power has always opposed her. Especially Zhangdun! She's got to have a fight with this guy!

When they met, the Empress Dowager Xiang cried for the first time, and said while crying, "The country is unfortunate, the emperor has no heir, and if you want to make someone the emperor, you have to make a decision early."

Zhang Dian replied sharply, "When Emperor Daxing's half-brother, the 13th son of Emperor Shenzong, King Jian, Zhao Ru" He is the prime minister and has the right to be the first to answer. He has the guts, even the first old woman, the Empress Dowager Gao, dares to abolish it, not to mention this inferior goods! Who is in power is too important! If it weren't for Song Zhezong's pro-government, how could there be a revival of the Xinfa group? Therefore, this throne must fall on Zhao Bi's head, and only in this way can the restoration of the old party be prevented!

Xiang Empress Dowager is very stable, and throws out a seemingly absolutely righteous and bright reason, "The old body has no children, and all the kings are the sons of the gods" is so broad! I don't have a son, so I don't have a bias. So what's the same mother and not the same mother? There is no concubine at all, all of them are concubines!

Zhang Dian was depressed, because he couldn't refute it. Who let Song Zhezong be in power for 6 years, but he didn't mention his biological mother to the position of the queen mother! He had no choice but to change the subject, saying that since there is no heir now, then it is time to stand up! The oldest is the 9th son of Emperor Shenzong, King Shen Zhao Yan!

Speaking of Zhao Yan, everyone present despised Xia Zhangdun - is the prime minister humorous today? This kind of thing can also be joked? King Shen Zhao Tong is a one-eyed dragon, since ancient times, it is not suitable for the disabled to be a minister, who has ever heard of a blind man being an emperor?

Really. Empress Dowager Xiang easily rejected this article, and then put forward the candidate in her mind: there is one person, who is full of happiness, longevity, benevolence, and filial piety, and is the best candidate for the emperor. And these 4-word comments cannot be doubted, refuted, or irresisted! Because this is what Emperor Song Zhezong himself said! Who is this man? It's Duan Wang Zhao Ji!

This sentence came from the mouth of the first emperor and was relayed by the queen mother! Is there a higher spec? Whoever wants to make trouble is simply against the Queen Mother, against the first emperor, and against the four best emperors who are about to ascend the throne! 2 words - look for death!

But someone really jumped out! Zhang Dian dared to contradict in this matter, "Duan Wang is frivolous, not the world", frivolous refers to unstable and uncalm. Doesn't seem like much. But every Chinese knows what happened to Lu Dao later, and it can be inferred from this that Zhang You's starting point - he and Zhao You have no personal grudges, and Zhao You is not the old party. Zhang Duan didn't have to get along with Zhao Ji at all, so why did he do this? It can only be a consideration of the future of the Song Dynasty ...

The opportunity arose, in ancient China, the birth of an emperor. Even the founding emperor had a necessary procedure. That's all passed. For example, please refer to the process of Zhao Kuangyin and Guo Wei being wrapped in yellow cloth... It's the same in peacetime, unless there is a clear edict of succession, otherwise it must be passed by all! Now Zhang Dian is out of his mind. I want to pull Zhao Ji off the horse! It's not easy to do Xiang even if it's the queen mother! After all, the one who is against it is the prime minister, who still has a neat and huge sworn party under him, for so many years. How much the reformers can toss, everyone knows!

At this moment, just when Zhang Dun needed help the most, a voice suddenly sounded behind him. The owner of this voice had appeared in the form of a peaceful, considerate, and universally liked image of the old party for all the years before this—Zengbu! This person who was in opposition to Wang Anshi during the Song Dynasty Shenzong, and Zhang Dian during the Song Zhezong period, spoke at the most critical moment that decided the fate of the New Party and the fate of the Great Song Dynasty - "Zhang Dian, listen to the punishment of the Queen Mother"

This sentence determines the future! Xiang Empress Dowager and Zhang Dian immediately explained their respective wins and losses! Zhang Dian lost! Without the support of the emperor and the New Party clique, no matter how tough he is, what can he do? Zhang Dian retreated, and didn't say half a word that day! He knew his fate after that...

Next, the ministers will be allowed to enter the Funing Palace and see the last side of the first emperor. On the imperial couch in the palace, there is a set of emperor's robes with a complete crown... Unlike usual, there is a silk handkerchief under the crown... It was a face covering, and Zhao Xu's face was covered underneath. The emperor's robe, covering his body when he was just over 23 years old...

Surrounded by ministers, the eunuchs lifted the silk handkerchief... It is said that Song Zhezong's expression was calm, his face was like powder, and he did not have any special pain. Maybe he was really relieved, but did he know what had become of his empire, his career, and his personal historical evaluation?

"Song Zhezong Ben Ji Zan" - Zhezong ascended the throne at a young age, assisted by the Empress Dowager Gao, and jointly governed the world. In the early days, Sima Guang, Lu Gongshu and other sages, abolished the Qingmiao Law and other harsh policies, restored the Changping Law and other good governance, opened a branch to take scholars, appointed officials, the world liked it very much, and the Yuan You period was comparable to the Song Renzong period. It's a pity that the traitors in the Xifeng period carried out restoration, ruined all the previous achievements, listed party membership, divided factions, and attacked virtuous gentlemen. As a result, the politics of the Song Dynasty became more and more bleak... The last 4 words are "Huh, it's a pity"

Do you know what it means to bully the dead? All the faults are on the New Party and Song Zhezong. During the Yuan You period, it was bright and flawless, and there was no mention of economic recession, cowardice to the outside world, suppression of the emperor, framing of ministers, etc.! Correspondingly, after the pro-government, Song Zhezong defeated Western Xia and destroyed Tubo!

Song Zhezong died, and one of his pages turned over. The new emperor will lead the Song Dynasty to a new world, this world is new and unknown, the old three powerhouses such as Liao, Song, and Western Xia will become supporting roles, and the new strong will dominate everything!

On the side of the Song Dynasty, the new emperor was a very promising one. He has almost all the advantages of all the emperors before the Song Dynasty, and the achievements he has achieved have not been achieved by all emperors since Zhao Guangyi, and even the founding emperor Zhao Kuangyin dreamed of! It's a pity: why was he born in this era? This age is full of contradictions, humiliation, death, rebirth, glory, and passion! The most humiliating period of the Han nation was at this time, and the greatest hero of the Han nation was also born at this time! (To be continued......)
