He said that there are now 170,000 troops in the Jianghuai area, and 116,000 people should be left to defend it. Wan Yan Bao thought that as long as 60,000 people were left behind, it would be enough, and the rest would be returned. Reward the army with the coins of the Song Kingdom... Reducing the burden of war and heavy military service, the economy of the Kingdom of Jin quickly recovered. At this time, only more than 3 years have passed since Wanyan Bao became the emperor. "Jin History" praises: "Sejong has been on the throne for five years, and the north and the south are good, and the people are resting." The top and bottom are safe, the home is sufficient, and the warehouse is more than enough"

On the 25th, Song Xiaozong dismissed the Lianghuai Zhaofu Division and the Shaanxi and Hedong Xuanfu Divisions.

Chen Junqing entered the right and talked to Song Xiaozong about the disadvantages of his friends. And when it comes to talents, they should be based on integrity. Those who are upright rarely have faults, and they should be tolerated. The wicked are very talented, and they should be examined.

On February 1, Zhao Yan went to Deokshou Palace, and went to the Four Sacred Temples with Emperor Taishang and Empress Taishang. Zhao Yan personally helped "Dad" to get on the horse, which caused the people to cheer and admire, thinking that they had never seen it before.

On April 22, Daikin reported to Wan Yan Zhong to meet him.

On the 25th, Dajin Xijing stayed behind, and Shouwang Wanyan Jing rebelled. His wife, Gongshou, once summoned the fortune teller Sun Bangrong to tell her husband's fortune. Sun Bangrong secretly observed his intentions and deceived him to dedicate himself to Wanyan Jing. After saving his life, he quickly reported the matter. After being verified by Gao Deji, the servant of the Criminal Department, Wan Yan Bao said, "King Hailing has no way to finish Yan Liang, but if his son Guangying is still there, I will also protect him, and Jing will wait for him" ordered Wan Yan Jing and his wife to be given 100 canes each, removed from their names, and exiled to Loufu County in Lanzhou, Hebei Road. And personally issued an edict to Wan Yanjing: "I and you are both grandsons of Taizu." Hailing lost his way. Annihilation of the Sect Branch. There are few brothers in my memory. Yu Ru is especially a relative. Thou knowest thyself, why do thou have this heart? I miss my flesh and bones, and I don't think about the law. If you haven't thought about it, I won't punish you. How can heaven and earth contain you?"

Month. Wu Xuan came to the court. Enter the king of Xin'an County.

On May 6, he returned to the capital to meet him. Jin Shizong personally comforted "the Song State to ask for peace, and the soldiers and the people rested."

On the 17th, after the completion of Pingzhang's political affairs, Yan Zongxian was crowned the right prime minister.

This month, Li Jin, a thief from Chenzhou on Jinghu South Road, made a riot. The imperial court ordered Liu Heng to be the pacification envoy of Hunan and the governor of Tanzhou, and Shen Jie sent Tian Bao and Yang Qin to lead troops to meet him. Liu Heng granted Yang Qin the right to control the armies, and ordered the thieves to arrest and behead the officials, and receive rewards for their crimes. Yang Qin and Tian Bao fought the thieves and chased them all the way to Mangshan, where the thieves tied Li Jin and came to surrender to the official army.

On June 9, Hong Shih, a scholar of Hanlin, was appointed as a member of the Privy Council. Song Xiaozong said to the two governors, Qian Duanli and Yu Yunwen, "The political affairs of the three provinces can be discussed with Hong Shi", so the East and West Mansions began to work in the same class.

On the 15th, Yao Yue, the judge of Huainan Yunyun, played locusts and died by hugging grass and trees. Zhao Yan was furious, "Yue takes it as Jiaxiang, and wants to find the Fu History Museum, but he can demote an official and let it go." It is the ring of evil at home and abroad"

On August 9, Song Xiaozong established his eldest son, Deng Wang Zhao Zhen, as the crown prince. Amnesty to the world. Here I want to talk about Zhao Tuan's family in detail. He is an excellent and good husband, and it is rare for Cheng Dù to have a fight with the famous Emperor Wen of Sui! Yang Jian only had one wife in his life, and all the children were born and raised by this woman, so he always said very superiorly, "There will never be cannibalism in my family, they are all the same father and mother, and the same mother."

The same is true for Zhao Tuan. All three of his sons were born to Empress Guo. They are the eldest son Zhao Zhen, the second son Zhao Kai, and the third son Zhao Dan. After Zhao Tuan ascended the throne, he was awarded the titles of King Deng, King Qing, and King Gong respectively.

Since ancient times, he has been a prince first, and then he is virtuous... In this order, the eldest son Zhao Yan is the one who is indispensable, but after more than 3 years on the throne, Zhao Yan has never made the crown prince. This matter is easy to understand, or because of Zhao Tuan's impeccable filial piety. He is not Zhao Gou's biological son, and he is full of guilt in front of the emperor during Zhao Gou's lifetime, so if he passes the throne to his son early, can he still claim to be a human being?

So it dragged on like this, and it wasn't until the sons gave birth to grandchildren that they could compete for a high or low status. This is the famous Southern Song Dynasty delivery room clock fast and slow event...

That was on July 1, 1165. The eldest son of the emperor's eldest son, Zhao Zhen, was born, and Deng Wangfu reported to the imperial court in the form of an official document, proving that the child was the eldest son of the eldest son, that is, the eldest grandson!

This is a great event, and it is in accordance with the legal procedures! The whole country is about to celebrate, but it is suddenly interrupted! The third prince objected, saying that his son, the imperial grandson born to the princess Li, was born two months ago, and even the name was chosen, called Zhao Ting, so this is the eldest grandson!

But why didn't he report it to the imperial court? Faced with this problem, Prince Gong's Mansion ignored it, but seized the time and completed the Wen Jiàn procedure on the same day. In other words, unless the time is compared, the two grandchildren were born on the same day. Prince Gong's Mansion is no less than King Deng's Mansion anyway...

And that's just the beginning! If you want to fight, you must fight for a clear understanding! The next day, Prince Gong's Mansion directly said that Wang Huai went to see Qian Duanli, the governor of the government. After the death of Chen Kangbo, he was appointed as the prime minister. Wang Huai said to him: On May 26, King Gong's wife Li gave birth to the eldest grandson of the emperor, please discuss the ceremony...

Qian Duanli was furious! The prime minister is the head of a hundred officials, and you, the little steward of the prince's palace, dare to order me to do it, it's just a big rebellion, I don't know what to do! To Xiaoli, this is a dog fighting people, a puppet of the prince's family. Let's talk about it. This is deliberately suppressing officialdom and confusing the inheritance of the Song family's bloodline, which is a felony of bullying the monarch and destroying morality! If you talk about it closer, it will be even more unbearable for the Prime Minister! Because King Deng's wife's surname is Qian, Qian Duanli's money! He's the grandfather of the child he just gave birth to! This steward of Prince Gong's Mansion actually asked him to do the demolition of his grandson's platform? Is it tolerable or unbearable!

As a well-known villain who can successfully plot against the emperor and bring down the country's war preparedness, Qian Duanli is very connotative. He did not get angry in front of him, but kept the application document brought by Wang Huai and handed it over to the emperor the next day. And quoted the words of the "Li" scripture, the biggest cornerstone of the social system in the Chinese feudal era, to characterize the fast and slow events of the clock in the delivery room of the Southern Song Dynasty: the division of the descendants and the order of the eldest and the youngest, must not be violated!

Under the suppression of this standard of the same laws and regulations of heaven and earth, the third son of the emperor, Zhao Dan, finally had nothing to say, he. Together with the most legendary lady in the Southern Song Dynasty behind him, they were temporarily speechless! Qian Duanli took advantage of the victory to pursue. Two months later, he helped his son-in-law to the throne of the crown prince! Zhao Zhen won, the eldest son of the emperor became the crown prince, and no one could find fault. Even Zhao Gou could only smile and applaud...

So far. The configuration of the Southern Song Dynasty imperial court was finally perfected: the emperor, the emperor, the crown prince, the imperial grandson... Four generations in the same house. All of them are healthy, and it can be said that it is the most lush period since the Song Dynasty. It's no longer like the five generations of monarchs in the Northern Song Dynasty, such as Zhen, Ren, Ying, Shen, and Zhe, who either went crazy in their later years or went crazy in middle age. Either having children in old age or having no children in middle age...

If this situation continues, it will undoubtedly bring a long period of stability. And this is too important for Xiaozong, who is eager to cheer up the Southern Song Dynasty, and it can be called an indispensable part of Zhongxing! Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and this situation only lasted less than two years...

After Yan Zhong sent an envoy to the Southern Song Dynasty, he was disrespectful, and Yu Yunwen asked him to behead. Zhao Yan did not allow it. Later, Qian Duanli was brought by Li Hongyu, and the incident was connected with Yu Yunwen. On the 11th, Yu Yunwen, who was impeached by the imperial history, was removed from the governor's office. On the 13th, Hong Shi was promoted to the governor of the council, and Ye Rong was promoted to the privy council to sign the book. On the 17th, Qian Duanli was impeached by the imperial servant Shi Tang Yaofeng for marrying the crown prince, and could not be allowed to govern, so he was removed from the governor's office.

This year, the Song envoy Fang Zi went to congratulate the Jin Lord Zhengdan, and the Jin envoy Wukuli Zhongbi also came to congratulate the Song Lord Zhengdan. The years after that.

On August 24, 1166, in order to boost morale, Zhao Tuan of Song Xiaozong wanted to list some figures. And the most brilliant number in ancient China is generally "thirteen", so there are "thirteen military exploits in Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty", but Zhao Tuan's "father" Zhao Gou has a strict order: anyone can be on the list, but Yue Fei can't! Even if Zhaoxue has been rehabilitated, it still can't work!

Song Xiaozong issued an edict that "the soldiers of all armies, those who have made meritorious contributions to the Jin people, and those whose effects are remarkable, cannot be differentiated." Today, there will be thirteen notable military exploits, and the list is set (in chronological order): Zhang Junmingzhou, Wu Jue and Shang Yuan, Wu Jue killed Jinping, Han Shizhong Dayi Town, Liu Qi Shunchang, Shao Hongyuan, Zhenzhou Xupuqiao, Liu Qi, Yangzhou Soaphorn Forest, Li Baomi, Jiaoxi Tangdao, Yu Yunwen, Jiankang, Caishidu, Wu Heng, Guanghua, Juncihu, Zhao Yu, Caizhou, Wang Xuanqueshan, Zhang Zigai relieved the siege of Sizhou"

On September 21, Song Xiaozong posthumously crowned Zhao Ke, the fourth son of the emperor who died early, as the king of mourning Su County.

On October 5, Chen Junqing, a cadre of the main battle faction and Zhang Jun's right-hand man in the past, was appointed as the official secretary of the Ministry of Officials. As for the foolishness, when you see it or not, you also hope that the Holy Mercy will proclaim it, and always admonish it. Although the distinction between monarchs and ministers is strict, the feelings between the top and bottom are indispensable, "Zhao Yan replied, "Qing Yan is also." I may have had, and it is appropriate for Qing to say everything" Chen Junqing said, "Ancient only Tang Taizong can guide people to advise, so to the rule of Zhenguan" Zhao Yan replied: "Every time I read Taizong's affairs, I do not admire it." If Dezong's jealousy is not happy to be said, he will not be disdainful."

On November 6, Yang Cunzhong died.

On December 15, Ye Rong was appointed as the left servant of Shangshu, Wei Qi as the right servant of Shangshu, Jiang Fu as the governor of the council, and Chen Junqing as the secretary of the Privy Council and the governor of the council. Ye Rong, who became the prime minister, recommended to the emperor that Wang Yingchen, Wang Shipeng, Lin Guangchao and others could be appointed as consuls, attendants, and other officials. He also said, "Since ancient times, Mingjun has employed people, making virtuous, foolish, treacherous, and greedy, but it is too much" Zhao Yan replied, "Yu Youyu, Gao; There are also commonalities and joys. Zhou Youdan, Ao; There are also tubes and Cai. In use, "Ye Rong answered" is like a holy oracle. But today, although there is no common and happy in the court, there are also those who steal Weifu: Long Dayuan"

On the 28th, Hong Mai, a resident of the house, wrote "all the affairs of the world, the order is in the book, the trial is under the door, and the book is in the book." At the beginning, there was no difference between civil and military affairs, and the difference between the east and west. The political affairs of the three provinces are now subject to the ruling book, the two officials draft the decree, and then the subordinates review and refute them. But when the Privy Council has obtained its will, it will not be able to write a book, but go straight to the door. The post of sealing is slightly biased. In addition, today's prime minister and cardinal are in charge of both, so it is not suspicious to correct it. Please edict the Privy Council in the future, all the decrees have been written, according to the three provinces style painting yellow, books to read, in order to show the meaning of the Qin heavy life" Song Xiaozong issued an edict to obey it. However, the Privy Council's quick affairs are still closed and provincial, and it cannot be changed when it is called "secret white".

Zhimen Shi Long Dayuan and Quan Zhimen Zeng Mo relied on Song Xiaozong's favor to steal the power, although the government and the opposition were quite discussed, but Xiaozong was still the same. One day, Hong Mai suddenly came to Chen Junqing, "I heard that Zheng Wen will remove the right history and move to the west, is there such a thing" Chen Junqing was puzzled, "He Zizhi" Hong Mai said that it was the dragon and the two of them sued him. Chen Junqing immediately reported the matter to Prime Minister Ye Rong and Vice Minister Wei Qi, and at the same time went to the emperor himself and asked face to face, "The minister doesn't know about such a removal, and the two of them really heard about it?" Suppressing the secret of the holy will and broadcasting it outside, in order to steal Weifu "Zhao Yan is helpless" I have no choice but to seek this generation, this must be eavesdropped! Qing Yan is very loyal, and he should be reprimanded for Qing "So on February 4, 1167, the 3rd year of the main road, Long Dayuan was demoted to the head of Jiangnan East Road (the next day, changed to Liangzhejiang East Road), and Zeng Mo was demoted to the deputy head of Huainan West Road (the next day, changed to Fujian Road).

On March 24, Song Xiaozong Zhao Yan's biological mother and the wife of Xiuwang Zhao Ziyan died.

On April 10, Zhao Yan issued an edict to merge the east and west roads of Lizhou into one road, with Wu Lan as the pacification envoy and Sichuan Xuanfu envoy and Xingyuan prefect. Soon, Wu Lan, the last member of the Gaozong Dynasty, died. On June 5, Zhao Yan divided Lizhou Road into east and west. On the 8th, Yu Yunwen was ordered to serve as the Xuanfu envoy of Sichuan with the rank of Privy Council Governor and Senior Minister's Hall of Ministers, in order to replace Wu Lan.

On the 25th, Empress Xia died. On July 10, the crown prince Zhao Zhen died. How did the crown prince die? Answer: Scared to death!

It is said that in the early spring of 1167, the crown prince Zhao Zhen went to the temple to preside over the incense ceremony on the national death day on behalf of his father. As soon as the qiē was carried out, it was almost noon when the crown prince and his entourage went home and walked to the Tribute Academy, that is, the examination room of the scientific examination, and there was an accident!
