In the fourth year of Jingde, if there was no Song Dynasty, this would be the last year of Zhao Heng's Jingde year.

In history, Zhao Hengcheng formed an alliance, and he was actually ashamed in his heart, and he began to seek auspiciousness because of his headache. But it's a little better now.

It can't be said that Zhao Heng is a faint monarch, an emperor with shortcomings and advantages. If he is a faint monarch, then at least ninety percent of China's five hundred and dozens of emperors are faint monarchs. However, if Liu Bang had no Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and Han Xin, he could let Xiang Yu be pinched to death with a slap.

The rule of Xianping, there was Lu Duan first, then there was the holy minister Li Xin, and there was Chen Shu financial management outside, and these three people were so low-key, they cooperated with Zhao Heng to initiate reforms, which created the rule of Xianping.

Three people died one after another.

Although Wang Dan is good, he is not as good as Li Xin, let alone a financial management master like Chen Shu, as for Kou Zhun in addition to the miraculous achievements established under Lanzhou, he is actually inferior to Wang Dan in terms of internal governance, so don't compare with Li Xin, and Zhao Heng's illness makes him unable to be as diligent as in his early years, don't mention Feng Chan, in fact, with the finance of the Song Dynasty, the cost of Feng Chan to worship immortals is not large, mainly the former, resulting in the deterioration of internal affairs.

The same example is Song Renzong.

In the early stage, Liu E corrected all kinds of disadvantages left by Zhao Heng, and there were Wang Zeng, Lu Yijian and other famous ministers, and he was also healthy, although he let the minister live and forced him to divorce several wives in a row, which made people cry and laugh, but the national situation was still relatively good at that time.

However, Li Yuanhao rebelled, border disasters arose in the northwest, Lu Yijian died, and the sparse Fan Zhongyan launched an unsuccessful reform, and Zhao Zhen's body began to fall ill, although there were really many famous ministers at that time. Fu Bi, Bao Zheng. Han Qi, Ouyang Xiu. Sima Guang, Pang Ji, Wen Yanbo, Starlight can brighten the eyes of the blind, but it is really a "famous" minister, there is a big name, but there is no fact, except for Pang Ji can make up for it, one is not as good as the other. The internal affairs of the Song Dynasty deteriorated again.

The two are incomparably similar, but Zhao Zhen is fortunate not to worship immortals everywhere like his father.

In this time and space, the reign of Xianping was joined by Song Jiu, which undoubtedly pushed the Song Dynasty to the peak of internal governance at once, almost to the point of being daunting.

However, when Song Jiu left the phase and Chen and Li died, this height would also slowly decline.

It was for this reason that Song Jiu let Wang Qinruo go, and Bi Shi'an fell ill in Shangyang Mansion. Xiang Minzhong is not as good as Kou Zhun, Wang Dan's qualifications are shallow, if Wang Qinruo is down, can Kou Zhun pick up the burden of the country alone?

Song Jiu analyzed. The truth disappointed him, because the result was that Kou Zhun couldn't provoke it at all.

So Song Jiu finally let Wang Qinruo go.

Song Jiu's analysis was very objective.

Kou is accurate, but his personality is almost terrible. Arrogant and arrogant, nepotism. I'm the only one, and sometimes I talk and do things very differently.

If he returns to the capital to serve as prime minister. Just when the imperial examination arrived, Donghua Gate released the roll call, whenever I heard that it was a southerner high school jinshi, I was very unhappy, as soon as I heard that it was a northerner, I was immediately overjoyed, and the court won the favor again.

Are Southerners the devil?

Relatively speaking, northerners are good at warlike and easy to be soldiers, while southerners are slightly softer and easy to be merchants. But where there are good people and bad people, there are good politicians and bad politicians.

Just like Fan Zhongyan is a native of Suzhou, isn't he a top scholar? Just like Wang Shao and Zhang Qi from the south, aren't they the most famous generals in the Northern Song Dynasty? Or like the Jin merchants of the Qing Dynasty, weren't they northerners?

Nationally, the people of Jiangdong should be docile, but aren't the core soldiers under Xiang Yu and Zhu Yuanzhang from Jiangdong?

The most important thing is that now the Song Dynasty is trying to create an atmosphere of all people, all ethnic groups, and all religions, so as to reduce the resentment of the people at the bottom and unite all the ethnic groups along the border.

However, as the dignified No. 1 Prime Minister of the Empire, what will be the repercussions if he actually utters such words with regional attacks and disdain?

When Song Jiu heard the news, he suddenly thought of why the dispute between the old and new halls in history had evolved into a regional dispute between the Shuo Party, the Shu Party, the Luo Party and the New Party? It turned out that Mr. Kou Da made a good start.

So he wrote a letter and went to the capital to explain the importance of Qi people, who not only strive to make all the people enjoy the same rights of law, taxation, and education, but also include Qi regions, Qi tribes, and Qi religions, so that a theoretical equality system can be formed, just like the three emperors and five emperors in ancient times, so that the country can be stable for a long time.

However, the last sentence suddenly came, without the financial support of the south, would the Song Dynasty have the ability to wipe out the Liao State, and could Kou Zhun spend all day drinking?

……

Liu E's life journey is legendary.

Officially, his father Liu Tong was Zhao Kuangyin's Hujie envoy, led the Jiazhou assassin history, led the troops to Sichuan, and then married a beautiful woman of the Pang family in Chengdu and gave birth to Liu E. Soon Liu Tong died on the battlefield, and Pang had to live in his mother's house. Because Liu Tong did not collect any property during his lifetime, although Liu E was the daughter of the assassin, she did not have the ability to read and write, and she learned to make a living from a young age.

You can't take it seriously, this is a recent phenomenon.

Back then, most of the people in Pingshu died, and they couldn't find it out if they wanted to. But Song Jiu still remembered some important people.

One is a commander, not a commander, one is a battalion commander with four or five hundred soldiers and horses, and the other is the general and head of several battalions. Back then, Shi Qi and Shi Hanqing were just deputy military leaders, so they let Song Jiuxian Immortal Ruo die. Besides, they all commanded envoys, and Wang Quanbin and Pingshu all commanded envoys back then, but they didn't collect money?

The real situation should be that Liu Tong is an instigator, and it is impossible to know whether he has the history of Jiazhou assassination, it is just a false official, and it cannot be taken seriously, and later there was a mistake and sacrifice on the battlefield, and the court would not issue a bereavement pension, so the life of the Pang mother and daughter began to be hard.

Liu E didn't have to doubt her profession at first, beating the mole is a kind of small drum, and speaking drum lyrics is actually a kind of rap art, while beating the drum, while rapping, and later produced the art of opera.

Artists, it's impossible to have a good style.

Therefore, when Liu E was thirteen or fourteen years old, the Pang family married her to the young silversmith Gong Mei as a concubine, Gong Mei's wife could not tolerate her, and Gong Mei had to take Liu E to the capital to make a living.

The fact is that Gong Mei was born handsome, and the two don't know how to get along. Maybe the parents on both sides were unhappy, so Gong Mei was bewitched by Liu E. abandoned his family and children, and eloped to the capital together.

It was later tampered with. The Liu family's family is in the middle, Liu E has no relatives, it just so happens that Gong Mei wants to go to the capital to eat, and when she heard about Liu E's situation, she asked her to go to Kaifeng together, and she is a cousin to the outside world, not a husband and wife......

The official statement is that Gong Mei is outstanding, kind, and good at making friends. Especially with Zhang Qi, who was on an errand in Xiangwangfu, Zhao Heng had not yet married Xiao Xiao Pan, and when he heard that the Shu girl was both talented and beautiful, he asked his entourage to choose a Shu girl as his concubine, which is the little wife. Zhang Qi elected Liu E, Gong Mei was reluctant, so she regarded herself as a cousin and entered the Xiangwang Mansion with Liu E.

But as Liu E was favored by Zhao Heng. There are also many people who pay attention to her, and there is another saying, saying that Liu E is outstanding, and whenever she says drum words in the tile. The spectator is like a mountain.

Zhao Heng was just a teenager back then, and it seemed that the future crown prince had nothing to do with him, so he liked to take his entourage around the capital since he was a child. I also like to listen to drum lyrics, and I saw Liu E at a glance. It was love at first sight. So he got Liu E to his house.

However, neither of these statements is true.

Since Gong Mei didn't even care about her family for Liu E, where was she willing to sell her? Could it be that Zhao Heng can't be strong?

The real situation was that Liu E was beautiful back then. But it's not very red. The population of the capital of the Song Dynasty was high, and it was not enough to have appearance, but it was necessary to have talent. If it is as the folk saying goes, Gong Mei's craftsmanship is superb to the extreme, can she be willing to let Liu E show up in the tile and say drum words? What is that? At this time, the status of the artist is very low, not an artist, but a trick, and if it is not easy to say, add a female character next to it, a geisha.

And the current drum words are full of all kinds of yellow tunes, and the pattern is low and coarse.

Therefore, Gong Mei's real situation is that his skills are not very high, at least not very high in the capital, and life is difficult, so Liu E continues to make a living for the two of them.

However, Liu E is from Bashu, with a different accent, and has not been educated very well, so the drum words are not very good, and the family of two continues to live a difficult life.

Maybe Zhao Heng was wandering around the capital and accidentally bumped into Liu E, and when he got his eyes right, he quietly revealed that he wanted to get Liu E. If Liu E and Gong Mei disagree, he will never dare to use force, and he must believe in Zhao Kuangyi's family law and family education.

Then Zhang Qi came to the door.

About the two of them combined, in order to live, Gong Mei had to sell his wife and daughter, and then Liu E put forward about a condition, she could go to Xiangwangfu to be a concubine, but Gong Mei must also be allowed to enter Xiangwangfu on an errand and be able to eat a mouthful of food. Zhang Qi felt embarrassed, and only later did he come up with the identity of a cousin, and let Gong Mei change her name to Liu Mei and enter the Xiangwang Mansion.

At this time, Zhao Heng and his eldest brother Zhao Yuanzuo's mother Li died, and his nurse was equal to his mother.

And Liu E's background can still be found out, her identity is unknown, and her background is low, so she ran to Zhao Kuangyi to complain. Zhao Kuangyi was furious.

In fact, it's not a big deal, a Wang Ji is not much better than a maidservant, but Zhao Kuangyi has a strict family education, which expelled Liu E from Lu.

Zhao Heng was reluctant, so he let Liu E secretly live in Zhang Qi's house, and it happened that Zhang Qi's house had some books, maybe Zhao Heng was afraid that Liu E would be lonely, so he sent many books for her to solve the pain of loneliness, so the legend began.

But Liu E didn't have much ambition, so she first entered the palace and got the status of a beauty, and she was already very satisfied.

The level of the harem in the Tang Dynasty was very standard, and below the queen, there were four ladies: noble concubine, lady concubine, virtuous concubine, and virtuous concubine; Nine concubines: Zhaoyi, Zhaorong, Zhaoyuan, Xiuyi, Xiuyuan, Xiuyuan, Chongyi, Chongrong, Chongyuan; Twenty-six women: Jieyu, beauty, and talent 9 each; Eighty-one royal wives: 26 each of Baolin, the royal maid, and the female picker. During the Tang Kaiyuan period, the four ladies under the queen did not conform to the old system, "it is to set Hui, Li, and Hua three concubines, six Yi, four beauties, seven talents, and Shanggong, Shangyi, and Shangfu have two each." ”

Of course, there can't really be so many concubines, but the rank is clearly marked.

The palace layout of the Song Dynasty was small, and even the number of people in the entire harem of the Zhao Kuangyin brothers, including the eunuchs, was often less than three hundred, so there were no guidelines for the harem. Roughly speaking, there are two types of palace maids and concubines. Ordinary palace maids do rough work. The kind of concubine who may have a relationship with the emperor.

It was only at the beginning that the emperor and the concubine were in XXOO, she stood on the side and was ready to serve at any time, if the emperor and the concubine were tired and had beads of sweat on their bodies, they continued to be in XXOO, and the attendant wanted to take a towel to wipe their sweat for them. When they're done, scrub them with water immediately. If you're lucky, it just so happens that the concubine is not very comfortable, or the eldest aunt comes, or the emperor has a good appetite and wants to have a 3P4P or something, then join together.

Song Renzong's biological mother, Concubine Li Chen, was a servant from the beginning, and it happened that Liu E was uncomfortable and asked Li to have a relationship with Zhao Heng instead of herself, but it was a coincidence that she won the bid with one shot, and then another legendary story began again.

Then there is Hongxiawei, and then further, Fengjun, Fengma, and then into the talent, beauty, Jieyu, in fact, these people are still low, just like a big family, there are wives and concubines, and there are concubines and maids, it can only be said that the beauty is no longer a maid, but a concubine. There are also above, Zhaoyi, Zhaorong, Xiuyuan, Xiuyi, Xiuyi, Chongyuan, Wanrong, Wanyi, Shunrong, Guiyi, etc., they are equivalent to low-level concubines, and there are also concubines, virtuous concubines, virtuous concubines, concubines, concubines, senior concubines, and the queen is the queen, that is, the wife.

Therefore, not many people pay attention to Liu E's entry into the palace, just a little beauty, why bother?

Zhao Heng's first wife was Xiao Xiao Pan, after Xiao Pan's death, he married Guo Shouwen's daughter as his wife, Guo also gave birth to a son for Zhao Heng, and other sons, but they died early one by one, and only Guo's son Zhao You survived safely.

Zhao Heng drove the expedition in person and said to Wang Dan that he could not defeat the Liao army in ten days, and he should be the prince, which was the child of the Guo family. However, Xiao Zhao was only a few years old at that time, so Guo stayed in the capital. Liu E drove with her, but everyone still didn't pay attention, the emperor, there must always be Gong E by his side.

Zhao Heng came back from the north, but soon after, Xiao Zhao died of illness and was only ten years old when he died. The reason for this situation is that the medical conditions are still very backward, and the second is that behind the seemingly beautiful palace, it is actually a big prison, lack of activities, and even other chaotic conspiracies, so the death rate of the prince is better than that of ordinary people. His son died, and Guo was depressed, so he died of illness this year.

At this time, Liu E had real ambitions. (To be continued......)
