Chapter 380: The Book of Heaven

"I remember talking about the Tanyuan Alliance before, to put it simply, the Northern Song Dynasty and the Khitan were fighting, and the Northern Song Dynasty saw that they couldn't beat it, so they quickly admitted it, and the Khitan didn't do it, so they asked for compensation for the land cession, and the Northern Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers knew that if they didn't cut the land, it would cause infamy through the ages, so they thought of a way, that is, they didn't cut the land and only paid compensation."

"After that, the two sides signed an alliance that the Northern Song Dynasty would give 100,000 taels of silver and 200,000 horses of silk to the Khitan every year."

"It was indeed this number at the beginning, but later with the development and growth of the Khitan, there were more and more requirements, and naturally this number was not good, until later Jin replaced the Liao State, and the Song Dynasty began to pay gold coins."

"After Song Zhenzong signed the covenant, he said something very good, saying that he couldn't bear the people to suffer from the war, and would rather use money to buy peace, but in fact, didn't he know what was going on in his heart?"

"He also knows that this is an act of loss of power and humiliation of the country."

Under the canopy

A lot of people started crying.

The people on the Song-Liao border were also crying bitterly.

"The fairy is right, what is used to buy peace, money is given every year, but we have never had peace."

"If the money is given, the Khitan will also invade the border, threshing grain and grass every year, and killing people every year."

"Isn't it good to give this money to the soldiers to fight?"

And Song Zhenzong's face was already super ugly.

Worry-free sighed: "In fact, the emperors of the Song Dynasty are not all bad, they have done very well in the field of culture and economy, during the time of Song Zhenzong, the economy of the Song Dynasty was prosperous, and the arable land for agriculture has also increased a lot, and improved varieties have been introduced, so that the crop production has increased, and the handicraft industry has become more and more developed." ”

"It can be said that the Song Dynasty was very rich, so rich that the monarchs and ministers felt that it was no big deal to give some money, but because of being rich, there was such a weak behavior, like a piece of fat, which attracted the coveted wolf."

"Later generations often say that if the Northern Song Dynasty did not pay so much attention to literature and light on military force, it could pay equal attention to civil and military affairs, what a good dynasty it would be, and it would have to be an era in which culture, economy, and science and technology were brilliant."

"It's a pity that the Song Dynasty was just a lame dynasty."

A sentence of lameness made the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty only feel like they were fried in oil, and they were uncomfortable to death.

Under the canopy

Many people can't figure out what the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty were thinking?

Even the old man who farms in the countryside understands that his family is rich, and those who have a lot of gold and silver have to raise more caretakers, and when he is weak, no matter how much money he gives you, you can't look at it, not only is it not a good thing, but it will lead to death.

And those who are supposed to be the smartest in one dynasty can't see through this?

Tang dynasty

Li Shimin sighed: "The fairy is the depth of love, so he is responsible." ”

He thought of being forced by the Turks when he ascended the throne, and had to submit when the army approached the city.

It was a shame that he could never forget for the rest of his life, it was a pain in his skin, and when Datang became strong, the first thing he would take revenge on was this.

But what about the Northern Song Dynasty?

Tanyuan Alliance, Humiliation Treaty, I don't want to strengthen myself and take revenge as soon as possible, even if I don't take revenge, I don't want to repeat this kind of day when I was forced to the door by the enemy, but I just want to take money to buy others not to beat you, heh, is there a brain disease?

Not only Li Shimin, but also Liu Che felt that the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty were sick in their brains.

"Song Zhenzong always thinks about the grievances of the Tanyuan Alliance, and wants to be ashamed, but he doesn't have the courage to fight with the Khitan again, at this time, Wang Qinruo gave him an idea and asked him to go to Mount Tai to seal Zen."

"But we all know that all the people who have always gone to Mount Tai to seal Zen are a generation of Ming Jun, and the cultural and martial arts are the top emperors, Song Zhenzong himself knows that he can't compare to the previous ones, he wants to go, but he is afraid of the minister's opposition, afraid of people gossiping, Wang Qinruo came up with an idea again, saying that if the sky is auspicious, he can make the trip."

"Song Zhenzong was also afraid that Wang Dan, the prime minister at the time, would not agree, so he quietly gave Wang Dan a jar of pearls and bribed the minister to make him not object to the matter of sealing Zen, Wang Dan softened his attitude because of these pearls, and did not oppose it again, in fact, Wang Dan regretted it when he was old, but his attitude changed at that time."

"It happened that there was a snow in the winter of this year, the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty were very happy, to the first year of Dazhong Xiangfu, Song Zhenzong summoned the ministers to the court, he and the ministers said that one night last year I dreamed of a red light in the house, and a god man walked out of the red light, and the god said that in January of the next year, the sky will descend to the heavens to write three Dazhong auspicious charms, and also told Zhenzong to keep it secret."

"Then, wait, wait, wait, that morning, the Imperial City Division came to report, saying that a yellow package was found in the south corner of Chengtianmen, and I think it was the Book of Heaven."

"Ministers hear of such a thing? At this time, Wang Qinruo and Wang Dan cooperated with Song Zhenzong to say that in recent years, the five grains have been abundant, and the people have been spared from war, which is really a sign of prosperity, and the book from heaven is a praise from the gods...... With such a cooperation between the monarch and the minister, what else can others say? I had to cooperate, so everyone went to Chengtianmen to find the Book of Heaven, opened it and saw that it said that Zhao was ordered, Xing in the Song Dynasty, lived in its instruments, kept it right, the world was seven hundred, and ninety-nine was fixed......"

Carefree laughed at this.

A lot of people laughed along.

Han dynasty

Liu Bang even threw away the meat: "Little trick, little trick, who doesn't know what's going on." ”

He laughed for a while: "I think when I started the army, I also pretended to be the Red Emperor, what kind of killing the white snake......"

Liu Che was also laughing: "Who is this bluffing, I think that when Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled, they were also a fish-bellied book...... The emperors of all dynasties, which one did not make some auspicious luck. ”

Qin Dynasty

The First Emperor thought of the trouble that came out of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms after he ascended the throne, and sneered: "Xiangrui? Hmph......"

After smiling without worry, he continued: "What does the Book of Heaven say about the 700th generation of Song Xing, but let's do the math, the time when the Book of Heaven appeared was 1008, and the time when the Northern Song Dynasty fell was 1126, it has only been more than 100 years, and the gods don't talk about it." ”

"A few months later, the subjects of the entire Great Song Dynasty knew about the descent of the Book of Heaven, so someone took the lead in asking Song Zhenzong Taishan to seal the Zen, which was the general process of the Book of Heaven incident."

"And Wang Qinruo was deeply trusted by him because he gave Song Zhenzong ideas, and later Kou Zhun also asked him to make a small report and was dismissed, and Wang Qinruo lived a very prosperous life in Zhenzong, until Zhenzong last year, Renzong succeeded to the throne, and he also lived very well, after his death, Liu E still cried and mourned......"

"Okay, Song Zhenzong, let's stop here, let's talk about Song Renzong."

"In the past, we talked about the Great Song Dynasty Men's Heavenly Troupe of the Renzong Dynasty, and talked about some famous talents of the Renzong Dynasty, such as Su Shi, such as Bao Zheng, for example, Liu Sanchang, who was ordered to fill in the words, and Sima Guang who smashed the cylinder, etc., now, let's talk about Song Renzong."
