In less than three years, in fact, only more than one year, Zhao Yan issued an edict of abdication, promoted himself to the second emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, and let his son become the emperor...

Death is not the end. First of all, the doctors were unlucky, and they were all sent into exile. Secondly, the treasury is unlucky. It is not enough for all the inner warehouses and sealed pile warehouses to bleed, and it is enough to print 700,000 money tickets to send the emperor. There are also people who are unlucky, and they urgently build a tomb for Zhao, spending nearly one million yuan before and after, which must be added to the people near Yongsi Tomb in Huiji County, Shaoxing Prefecture, and even the meals of the construction workers are included. The inspectors from the palace "broke 400 catties of mutton per meal, and it was especially difficult to deal with Pansuo, such as dozens of catties of chickens" and so on... Zhao Gou's wife, Empress Dowager Wu, was still unhappy, because the procession at the funeral was not gorgeous enough, and the old woman was furious, "After I was 100 years old, I only used four people to carry the board" Zhao Tuan was ashamed, and he couldn't wait to carry the coffin by himself...

On the 9th, Wei Pu was appointed as a mourning envoy and sent an envoy to Jin Guo to mourn.

On the 14th, Song Xiaozong issued an edict that "I should serve for three years, and the ministers will obey the order of Yiyue", and the temple number of Zhao Gou was Song Gaozong. Hong Mai, a scholar from Hanlin, cited the example of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty and felt that Zhao Gou should be the same as Liu Xiu, called Song Shizu. You Yuan, Yan Shilu and others all oppose the "system of the temple: the ancestors are meritorious and the ancestors are virtuous." Taizu has created a great cause and has to be called an ancestor. Taizong unified China and was called Zong. From Zhenzong to Qinzong, 7 generations of emperors are all called Zong, and the temple system is certain, and it is not easy for eternity. Otherwise, the son is the ancestor and the father is the Huizong, wouldn't it be a loss of order? Some people just cite Han Guangwu as an example. But this is different. Liu Xiu is the king of Changsha, from Buyi, and the Western Han Dynasty Emperor Wai, Emperor Ping has no inheritance relationship, so he can be called the ancestor. Although my emperor is the king of Zhongxing, he is the same as Liu Xiu. But he is actually inheriting the orthodoxy of Huizong. is a son who steps his father, which is different from Liu Xiu's self-cloth. If you insist on being the ancestor, I am afraid that the spirit of the emperor in the sky will also be uneasy" The final decision: Zhao Go's temple name is Song Gaozong.

On the 18th, the ministers connected five tables. Please Song Xiaozong to listen to the government. On the 19th, Song Xiaozong issued an edict to encourage him to obey the invitation. On the 21st, Song Xiaozong wore filial piety clothes to the court. Appointed Yan Shilu as the messenger of the remnants of the Jin State.

On November 2, Song Xiaozong began to listen to political deliberations in the Yanhe Hall in a white cloth robe, and ordered the crown prince Zhao Dian to participate in the decision. Yang Wanli, the waiter, objected to the prince's book, and the prince was terrified when he read it. On the 3rd, Zhao Dian resigned and was not approved.

On the 4th, the 27th day of Zhao Gou's death, Baiguan took off his filial piety clothes. Song Xiaozong personally went to Deoksugung Palace to pay respects. On the 7th, the ministers connected three tables and invited Song Xiaozong to listen to the government.

On December 21, Jin Shizong issued an edict: it is forbidden for Jurchens to change their surnames and wear Hanfu, and the offenders will be punished.

On January 7, the 15th year of Chunxi (1188), the Jin State sent Fucha Kezhong as the Song Hanging Sacrifice Envoy.

On the 9th, Song Xiaozong issued an edict that "the crown prince has not participated in the decision for a long time, and he is already familiar with foreign affairs." From now on, every time he meets the palace, he makes the crown prince stand "so You Yu quietly came to find the prince Zhao Dan" where the power is. The world is contending, and it is very terrifying. May Your Highness do everything big or small, and take the decree before doing it. There is no thickness, and it will be decided after public opinion. The position of the Prince. Stop at greeting the food and don't hand over foreign affairs. Raising the army or supervising the country is more expedient. There are different powers, and there are obstacles to action"

February 21. Fucha Kezhong came to the Song court and saluted the body of Song Gaozong in the Deshou Palace. After that, he met with Song Xiaozong in Suhu in Dongying. Subsequently, Jing Bo was ordered to send an envoy to Jin Guo to answer the salute.

27th. Yan Shilu said goodbye to the south from the Jin Kingdom. Wan Yan Yong selected 5 pieces of jade, 20 pieces of glassware, and some bows and swords from the relics of Zhao Gou that he brought, and asked Yan Shilu to take them back, "These are all treasures of the first emperor of your country." It should be treasured in your kingdom, so that you will not forget the feelings of admiration. If I accept it now, I can't bear it."

On March 1, the Spring Festival, Jin Shizong held a banquet in the Shenlong Temple. The kings, princesses, and ministers stepped forward in turn to congratulate their birthdays. The 66-year-old Wan Yan Yong was happy, but he still did not forget the importance of the country's foundation and the infinite trust of eternity, and earnestly warned his imperial grandson Wan Yan Jing to cultivate himself and cultivate virtue, and ordered his disciple Shan Kening to be loyal and assisted. After that, Wan Yan Yong sang in person, and Wan Yan Jing and Tu Dan Kening reconciled, and they were very happy.

On the 30th, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou was officially buried in Yongsi Mausoleum.

On April 17, Jin Shizong issued an edict: establish Jurchen Taixue and cultivate the children of Jurchen nobles.

This month, the ministers still played one after another, asking the emperor to remove filial piety in time in accordance with the ancient system of changing the sun and the moon in the "Book of Rites", and listen to the government in the court. Song Xiaozong still insisted on serving the three-year mourning. Chen Liang asked Song Xiaozong to restart the revival plan, but at this time, Zhao Yan wanted to serve the three years of mourning for 'Daddy' before saying anything else. The ministers of the DPRK and China accused Chen Liang of being a crazy person.

On May 13, Jing Bo arrived in Jinguo. insisted that the Jin State withdraw the feast. Kang Yuanbi, the labor envoy of Dajin suburbs, felt that there was no precedent for this and did not dare to agree. So Jing Bo asked that the banquet should not be removed, but the drum music must be removed! Now that my country is in the period of national mourning, how can I enjoy it as an envoy of the Song Dynasty? The two sides argued for a long time, and finally Jin Shizong sighed, "This is really a direct minister of the Southern Dynasty." All right! Remove the drums" On June 27, Jing Bo returned to China. Song Xiaozong was very pleased, "Boring stubbornly refuses to listen to music, which is commendable." Scholars and doctors live in the norm, who does not promise themselves to be righteous? There are those who can remain unchanged in the face of danger, such as boring. Beijing can be promoted to two levels, "Prime Minister Zhou Bida said, "promotion and rank, this is a common practice." Jing Bo Qi Festival, please make an exceptional award" Zhao Yan said, "Yes! Jing Boring is today's Mao Sui", so Jing Bo was promoted to the acting Ministry of Labor.

This month, Prime Minister Zhou Bida recommended the hypocrite Zhu Xi to serve as a prison envoy on Jiangnan West Road. Zhu Xi was edicted to enter the court, and his friends specially reminded him that "the emperor does not like to hear the theory of sincerity and righteousness." Don't talk about this when you go," the hypocrite replied, "What I have learned in my life is these four words (the most famous slogan of science: Gewu, Zhizhi, sincerity, righteousness, self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world). How dare you deceive the king" So when he entered the court, Zhu Xi still talked about his own science of preserving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires. Song Xiaozong was also noncommittal, "I haven't seen Qing for a long time, Qing is old." I already know about the affairs of eastern Zhejiang. Now it seems that Qing is suitable for the position of Qing Zheng, and I dare not bother with the state and county anymore", so Zhu Xi was appointed as the commander of the military department. The hypocrite immediately said: I have a sick foot and cannot be this official. Lin Li, the squire of the military department, was at odds with Zhu Xi, so he took the opportunity to impeach Zhu Xi, saying that this person was famous for Taoism and self-esteem, since he said that his feet were sick, then he should be dismissed, and no official should be given to him! The ring of those who think they are rude!

Zhou Bida immediately came out to play a round for the hypocrite, "Xi does have a foot disease, he is reluctant to enter the right, and he dares to bully the king" Xue Shuyi, Ye Shi and a large group of people also said good things for this hypocrite. Hu Jinchen, the servant of the imperial history, even went up to impeach Lin Li. So July 25th. Lin Li was expelled from the imperial court and went to serve as the governor of Quanzhou. Hypocrite Zhu Xi, you can go and be in charge of a palace shrine!

On the 28th, Zhao Xuan, the king of Enping County, who had competed with Zhao Yan for the position of prince, died. Song Xiaozong, who is friendly by nature, has always been very good to this competitor: Zhao Xuan gave countless money during his lifetime. After Zhao Xuan's death, he posthumously sealed the letter to the king.

On August 13, Kim Sejong said to the ruling minister, "I heard that Udecai has been disobedient lately? If an envoy is sent to reprimand, he may not be inferior to him, and there will be trouble at the border. I try to attract people from afar, but it will not benefit the country. He listened. If you don't come, you don't have to force it. On the 21st, Jin Shizong said to the minister, "The way of employing people should be used from the prime of life." If the qualifications are restricted, then by the time they can be used, the talents will be old. In the future, if there are any available materials, you should recommend them as soon as possible."

On November 5, Song Xiaozong warned the crown prince Zhao Dian that "the number of favors should not be overflowing." In the future, the Queen Mother's 80th birthday will be similar to my 70th birthday. If the reward is too broad, then how many officials will be added out of thin air! Therefore, the birthday celebration of the queen mother, as long as you grace those officials and subordinates of the palace."

7th. Jin Shizong reburied his cousin and Jin Xizong Wanyan in Emei Valley, and the mausoleum is still called Siling.

On December 14, Kim Sejong Wanyan Yong began to fall ill. On the 19th, the state of Jin issued an amnesty. 24th. Wan Yan Yong's edict: The imperial grandson Wan Yan Jing was regent. On the 25th, Tudan Kening was appointed as the left prime minister and Shang Shuling, Wan Yanxiang as the right prime minister, Zhang Rulin as the political affairs of Pingzhang, and Liu Wei as the governor of the political affairs. On the 27th, Tudan Kening, Wan Yanxiang, and Zhang Rulin were edicted and stayed in the inner hall.

Month. Song Xiaozong summoned the hypocrite Zhu Xi again, but this time Zhu Xi did not come at all, but just wrote on the seal: "Your Majesty has six urgent tasks today: auxiliary princes, elected ministers, revitalized the outline, changed customs, loved to support the people, and cultivated the Ming government." All these six things. None of them can be delayed, but the original lies in the heart of His Majesty. If one heart is right, then all six things are right. As soon as there are people who have selfish desires in between, even if they want to work hard to seek the six things of the husband, they will also be used as stationery, and the more things in the world can be done" When this Shangshu was sent into the palace, it was already late at night, and Song Xiaozong, who had already gone to bed, immediately got up and read it at night. The next day, Zhao Yan issued an edict: Zhu Xi was appointed to be in charge of the Taiyi Palace and the Chongzheng Palace. Once again, the hypocrites refused to take up their posts. Hum! What do you want? Do you want to blackmail me and let me give you a bigger official? Physicists are really a bunch of shameless hypocrites! Zhu Xi, you are still in charge of a palace ancestral hall!

On January 2, the 16th year of Chunxi (1189), 67-year-old Kim Sejong Wan Yan Yong died in Fu'an Palace. Legend has it that the emperor Wanyan Jing, the reincarnation of Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Zhao Ji of Song Huizong, inherited the throne by the edict.

Wan Yan Yong died, and the Jin country he left behind was stable. completely eliminated the shadow brought by the failure of Yan Liang's southern invasion. The national strength gradually recovered, and it was pulled out of the quagmire of Wanyanliang's continuous relocation of the capital and forced southern expeditions. The government is also clear, and there are no great purges and bloodsheds, and even the rapidly degrading Jurchen native culture has been strengthened... All in all, he couldn't have done better! Shi Zan's "gold lord reigned for 28 years, the north and the south talked well, and rested with the people. Bow thrift, worship filial piety, believe in rewards and punishments, and emphasize agriculture and mulberry. The ministers are in service, the upper and lower are together, the family is sufficient, the warehouse is more than enough, the criminal department convicts, there are no more than 20 people, and the country is known as Xiao Yao Shun"

The reign of Jin Shizong was indeed a prosperous era, but there is a question that historians of all dynasties have puzzled: why are there so many records of riots and rebellions in the "Jin Shizong Benji"? Supposedly, there shouldn't be riots every year in the prosperous era, right? On this issue, the Qing Dynasty historian Zhao Yi gave a speculative explanation in his "Twenty-two Historical Notes": "The nine monarchs of the Jin Dynasty were the most virtuous in Sejong. However, in the past 20 years, there have been many rebels. In a world where there is a way, there are many chaotic people, why not? How could it be that Shizong comprehensively checked the rule of officials, and where there were traitors, there were divisions who did not dare to hide, so they played Duduoye? Or some divisions want to take credit for their contributions, so they take it lightly and heavily, so as to see that they are diligent in their official work."

Turn your attention to the Southern Song Dynasty again: Song Xiaozong Zhao Tuan also immediately announced his abdication and became the emperor. As for why? The Southern Song Dynasty officials have a variety of explanations...

Such as the age theory. At this time, Zhao Tuan was 63 years old. In addition to his dead "father" Zhao Gou, in the Two Song Dynasty, this is already the second-ranked senior emperor! And one of the "filial piety" is broad and profound, and it is unbelievable that it has been studied to the extreme, and it will extend to the dead!

Who said that filial piety to the living is the ultimate "filial piety"? It is necessary to be filial to the ancestors to be in place! One of them is that children and grandchildren should maintain enough respect for their ancestors and be humble everywhere. Don't live longer and better than your ancestors! Especially in terms of work performance, it must not be surpassed! Practical examples include the Qianlong Lord of the Qing Dynasty, who has been in power for 60 years. is determined to be the emperor, the reason is that he must not exceed the work records of his grandfather and Qing Kangxi! And in the Song Dynasty, Song Xiaozong Zhao Tuan was a famous representative! He is really embarrassed to live longer than his ancestors and ancestors, especially if he can still live to work!

Actually, these are all fake! The real reason is in the north! Wan Yan Yong died, and Wan Yan Jing, who succeeded to the throne, was his grandson, and according to the terms of Song Jinlong's peace negotiation, Zhao Tuan had to be called Uncle Wan Yan Yong, and at this time, Wan Yan Jing ascended the throne, and of course the honorific title of uncle had to be continued... Wan Yan Jing is 22 years old this year!

63-year-old Zhao Tuan has to call 22-year-old Wan Yanjing uncle? And this uncle is still the grandson of the previous uncle? If this continues, what is the decline of Zhao Tuan's generation? Is it tolerable or unbearable! You must know that Zhao Tuan has super self-esteem that he is not even willing to accept the book ceremony, how can he accept such a humiliating position! So, he had no choice but to give up the throne to his son and hide in the old mansion of Wangxian Bridge where Zhao Gou once lived...

Such an escape from the world and abdication of the throne can be regarded as unexpected and reasonable. I want to open it, but it's actually nothing. Anyway, the blood that was hot and hot many years ago has long been dull and calm, so why bother to suffer in this high position? Even with his children and grandchildren, he was dragged to seventy or eighty, and by the time he ascended the throne naturally, he would have been an old man.

On the 5th, Huang Qia, a member of the Privy Council, was dismissed. On the 8th, Zhou Bida was appointed as the left prime minister, Liuzheng as the right prime minister, Wang Lin as the governor of the council, Ge Yi as the governor of the Privy Council, and Xiao Sui as the governor of the Privy Council.

On the 15th, Zhao Gou's wife, Empress Dowager Wu, moved to Cifu Palace. Give up Deoksugung Palace and give it to Zhao Yan, who is ready to abdicate at any time.

On the 20th, Zhao Yan summoned Prime Minister Zhou Bida and others, "I have been feeling a little tired lately, and I want to retreat and recuperate in the crown prince during the day, so that I can serve three years of mourning." The secretary can draft the edict of abdication for me."

On the 28th, Deoksugung Palace was renamed Chonghwa Palace.

On February 1, Cai Ji was appointed as a member of Shangshu Zuo. Zhao Yan is really diligent! Just the day before the Zen throne, officials were still being appointed.

On February 2, 1189, exactly one month after Jin Shizong's death, Zhao Yan came to the Zichen Hall in auspicious clothes and announced the edict of abdication. After that, the hundred officials went to the palace to set up a class, and the crown prince Zhao Dian appeared, that is, the emperor's throne. Standing sideways and not sitting, just like the process of Shaoxing 32 years, when Zhao constructed the Zen position. After that, Zhao Yan also personally sent the Emperor Zhao Yan to Chonghua Palace to live in peace, just like Zhao Yan did back then. (To be continued......)
