The Eve of the Storm

The reason for this is that it is also related to the most noble noun in the feudal era of "gentleman". What is the loss of an official position? A gentleman is poor and peaceful. When Confucius praised his most proud disciple Yan Hui, he said, "A single meal, a can of drink, in a humble alley, people cannot bear the worries, and he will not change his happiness." This is to make the more glorious the more poor and glorious it! What is the destruction of ideals? If I am good at what I am, I will not regret it even if I die nine times. As long as I like it, it doesn't matter if I die nine times. There is a self-abuse pleasure that will allow the disciples of the saints to persist for thousands of years until the Ming and Qing dynasties. For some trivial matters, please ask the emperor to beat me, and I will be happy to beat me to death! What's more, such as the reform of the new policy, tragedy can be exciting, and I don't hurt at all! Even exile is a kind of happiness...

And how can gentlemen criticize each other? That is the quality of street vendors and the manifestation of shrews scolding the streets! That is why the Song Dynasty left such a record in the dispute between Fan Zhongyan and Du Yan and Fu Bi on the Golden Palace - Fan Zhongyan is like his father, and Du Yan is not angry... Blade the front teeth and swallow it. Gentlemen have to stand up straight at any time, don't be embarrassed! They will never admit that this personality is just a second-class disabled person in the officialdom!

There is a saying in the American novel "The Watcher in the Rye": "The sign of an immature man is that he is willing to die bravely for a certain cause, and the sign of a mature man is that he is willing to live humbly for a certain cause." The gentlemen of Qingli were called out. They would rather die bravely than live humbly for the new world of the Song Dynasty. Faced with Xia Shu's lies, is there no other way except to resign and retreat to prove their innocence? At least they can't leave, just like Xia Shu? No matter who impeaches me, I just don't move! But they won't! In reality, with the merits of the border and the desire to be rich and strong in the country, the people's desire, this level of pursuit was actually ruined in a forged anonymous letter, which is simply a farce! From this perspective, how can there be any noble and majestic?

On March 8, the Guangxi Transportation Envoy Du Qi pacified the Xifan barbarians in Ding District.

On August 11, he appointed the Censor Bao Zheng as the envoy of He Zheng and sent an envoy to the Great Khitan.

On October 28, the system of prime minister and Privy Council was abolished. At that time, it was a temporary measure that was caused by the Western Xia and Khitan invading the border at the same time and the border was not calm. Now the three parties have already discussed peace with each other, and the principle of decentralization of power, which is the most important family law of the ancestors of the Song Dynasty, was proposed again. The two prime ministers, Jia Changchao and Chen Zhizhong, took the initiative to abolish Privy Council.

In July, Shi Jie died of illness, but Lord Xia, who had a deep hatred with him, said he would not believe anything. It happened that Kong Zhiwen, a Xuzhou plotted to rebel and collected the letter from Shi Jie from his home. So Lord Xia once again used his secret skills: forging letters. He threatened that Shi Jie was not dead, and now he has sneaked to the Great Khitan to conspire to raise an army. Moreover, he was instructed by Fu Bi, and Fu Bi will be his inner support. Our Song Dynasty is almost over! So on November 10, he ordered the Jingdong Road to raise a prison envoy to conduct detailed verification of Shi Jie's life and death.

In July 6th year of Qingli (1046), the envoy of the Third Division Wang Gongchen made an opinion on the redundant soldiers: there were 120,000 imperial guards at Taizu, 180,000 during Taizong, and 400,000 during Zhenzong, which is now close to 1 million. The food and grass consumed by such a huge redundant soldiers cannot be handled by the Sansi, one of the General Offices. Let everyone raise them themselves. So on the 7th, I issued an edict: Xia Xu was also the Hebei Road, Zheng Jian was the Hedong Road, and Cheng Lin was the Food and Grain Plan for Yongxing Jun Road.

On the 19th, Yelu Zongzhen went to Qiushan to hunt. Historian Xiao Hanjianu accompanied him and repeatedly advised the Liao emperor to hunt and injure people. Zongzhen refused to listen. This time, in Qiushan, bears, tigers and other animals killed and injured dozens of people. This time, Xiao Hanjianu refused to advise and wrote them directly into the historical book. Yelu Zongzhen saw it and ordered him to paint it off on the spot. However, he did not expect that Xiao Hanjianu would write it again as soon as he left the imperial camp. Yelu Zongzhen was speechless and could only sigh, "The historical pen should be like this." One day, Zongzhen asked Xiao Hanjianu

"You said that among the emperors of our Liao Dynasty, who can be called a virtuous lord?" Xiao replied, "Muzong" Zong Zhen said, "Muzong? Isn't it sleeping king? Isn't it true that alcohol is a virtuous lord? Is such a person a virtuous lord?" Xiao replied, "Although Muzong was tyrannical, but Muzong once, the people were lightly taxed and paid less taxes. Recently, Your Majesty was hunting in the autumn mountains. I heard that many people were killed and injured. In this way, wasn't Muzong virtuous than Your Majesty?" Zong Zhen was silent... On the 23rd, Yelu Zongzhen issued an edict to prohibit the hunting of the people's fields.

On October 1, Zhang Zixi had been running back and forth many times since March last year. The focus was on Yanzhou, the security army, Fengzhou and other places. This time, the Song Dynasty decided not to make concessions and ordered Zhang Zixi to take the map on the Hedong Richmond Zheng Jian to negotiate with Xixia. On November 3, because Zhang Zixi was ill on the way, he ordered Chu Jianzhong to rush to Yanzhou to discuss the border between Song and Xia.

But it is obvious that what Li Yuanhao values ​​the most now is not Song Xia’s peace, but women.

Li Yuanhao wanted to choose a crown prince's concubine for him and the prince Ning Lingge born to Empress Yeli. Yeli Yuqi, who was suspicious of Li Yuanhao, decided to launch a coup at the wedding of his nephew and kill Li Yuanhao! Unfortunately, Yeli Yuqi was killed, Yeli was exterminated, and Li Yuanhao's harem was reshuffled, and Queen Yeli was deposed. And this is not over. Everyone will immediately know what impact the destruction of the Yeli family will have on the century-long national destiny of the Western Xia...

Li Yuanhao chose a girl who was not moved for Prince Ning Ling. On the day of his marriage, Li Yuanhao personally hosted the wedding, but something big happened! Damn it! It is a sin to be too beautiful? It is said that the girl is so beautiful that she is unreasonable. Li Yuanhao has difficulty breathing, his thinking pauses, and his brain restarts and smiles at his son: Dear child, do you avoid it first?

He found a new dress and stood with the bride. This woman is mine! In this way, the unremoved clan became Li Yuanhao's seventh queen. Li Yuanhao rebuilt the palace in the Tiandu Mountain base camp to live in the new queen. Then the deposed queen Yeli cried and made a fuss. His two brothers and tribe members were killed, and he was deposed. The woman who was supposed to be his daughter-in-law has now become the biggest mistress competing with him? She was very sad and ran to Li Yuanhao to cry. Li Yuanhao may be a little slower than Cao Cao, but he also came back a little afterwards: People seem to have killed the wrong person, and they are anxious to kill? What's more, they killed two in a row? In addition, he regretted that he began to look for the survivors of the Yeli brothers, and to double the pension and keep it safe. So he found Yeli, who had become a monk in a nunnery, the wife of the beggar, Wu Zang. Then take her into the palace and let her sister-in-law and Queen Maeno Ri accompany her?

As a result, after entering the palace, Li Yuanhao had difficulty breathing again, and his thinking paused: God, why did you harm me like this? She is so beautiful! So Wuzang became the 8th queen of Li Yuanhao's secret. This is of great significance to the history of Xixia, so I have to explain it carefully. Wuzang discovered a small secret by Yeli after staying in the new imperial palace of Tiandu Mountain for a few days, so he was driven out and had to continue to live in the Jietan Temple in Xingqing Prefecture, but Li Yuanhao often ran to the temple to have a secret meeting with her. So she would get pregnant, Li Yuanhao would die tragically, and she would become Wuzang's Queen Mother's before the child in her belly could not be confirmed to be a man or a woman. Xixia would have three generations of emperors in a row under the dictatorship of the mother party and declined for 51 years...

What about the original prince Ning Ling? You can think about it: his mother was deposed and his uncle's clan was completely destroyed. He should have his beautiful wife called her mother now? Will he still have any feelings for his father like this? So forgive him: more than a year later, he will be used to kill his father, and at the same time he will be killed by the person who uses him... But is this his fault?

On November 11, Yelu Zongzhen appointed Xiao Xiaoyou as the prime minister of the Northern Palace, Yelu Renxian as the king of the Southern Court (the prototype of Xiao Feng appeared in "The Dragon and Eight Parts"), and Xiao Ge was the Privy Councilor of the Northern Court. Xiao Ge abused power and charmed the emperor. He was the time when Li Yuanhao came to apologize, and brought that great defeat to the Liao army. Now Xingzong's favor for him was not yet declined. Yelu Renxian's younger brother, Yelu Yixian, the envoy of Xuanhui of the Southern Court, repeatedly advised him, but Zongzhen refused to listen. At one time, the following program after drinking and eating was matchmaking gambling. Yelu Yixian happened to be paired with Xiao Ge, and Yixian

He was furious, "I can't advance the wise and retreat, and I am ashamed of my ancestors. How can I bet with **** now?" Next, Yixian took advantage of the drunkenness to curse Xiao Ge, which made Emperor Xingzong unable to come to Taiwan. Fortunately, the queen persuaded him that the banquet did not lead to a tragedy in the end. A few days later, Yelu Zong really wanted to dismiss Yelu Yixian's official position, and Xiao Ge pretended to say, "Yi Zhen has no talent, so he should be dismissed. But everyone in the world knows his loyalty and integrity, if he is just a little conflict at the banquet, he is afraid that people will not accept it." In this way, the Liao Emperor slowly alienated the Yelu Renxian's brothers and favored Xiao Ge even more...

On the 25th, Zhao Zhen left the palace to hunt, which was the first time that he had made the first pass. The sky was high and the clouds were light, and the clouds were rolling. He rode his horse in the wild, free and unrestrained. This was one of the few truly happy days in his life in Song Renzong...

On March 21, 1047, Jia Changchao was dismissed from prime minister, Wu Yu was dismissed from Privy Councillor. He ordered Xia Shu to be the Privy Councillor, and Wen Yanbo was appointed as the Privy Councillor. On the 23rd, Wen Yanbo was renamed as the Chief Secretary, and Gao Ruona was appointed as the Deputy Chief Secretary. On the 28th, Chen Zhizhong, the Prime Minister of Jia Changchao's cabinet, was demoted to the position of the political affairs of Song Xiang and Ding Du, each demoted to the position of the government, and assisted the government as usual. On April 11, the three people were re-officially restored.

In June, Xia Shu, who was re-elected as Privy Councilor, was very excited. He still wanted to take revenge! The first candidate was Shi Jie who nailed him to the pillar of historical shame with "The Holy Deed of Qingli". It is said that Shi Jie was dead, but Lord Xia insisted on emphasizing that Shi Jie was not dead, and Shi Jie's so-called death was a conspiracy, which was that he took the opportunity to escape to the Great Khitan and sent a letter to Fu Bi, and wanted to subvert the Song Dynasty with the inside and outside!

For this, Renzong wanted to send someone to dig up Shi Jie's tomb. If there is no corpse or the corpse is not Shi Jie himself, what Xia Shu said is true. The tomb of a person is very vicious. Whether in ancient times or modern times, it is a matter of mutual anger between man and gods! But other than that, is there any way to prove the innocence of Shi Jie and Fu Bi?

The grave digging operation is in progress, and something happened to the "master" Fu Biji. Since Shi Jie escaped for him, he must first control the mastermind. So Fu Bi was moved from Yunzhou to Qingzhou, waiting for the investigation results. This is considered a pre-regulation. At the same time, in Shi Jie's hometown in Shandong, Shi Jie's wife was also caught in advance and brought to other places for supervision. The Song Dynasty also sent people to sneak into the Liao Kingdom to check if the other party had any military operations in the near future? The answer is no.

Liao Kingdom did not respond. Is the rebellion not there? Lord Xia shook his head, and his contemptuous eyes swept to everyone: I am now the Privy Councilor, the military representative, and the head of national security! I want to tell you: Liao Kingdom did not assemble the army, because Shi Jiebing was bent, he did not touch the savages. Now he sneaked back to the country quietly, gathered tens of thousands of vicious gangsters in Dengzhou and Laizhou area, preparing to rebel collectively! As for why he chose Deng and Laizhou, it is very simple. Qingzhou where Fu Bi is now located is nearby... Things develop

At this point, the insidious smell has been revealed. People are dead, even if they want to take revenge, can they be a little limit? Even if there is no limit, can they be a little tasteful? Even if you have bad quality and despicable methods, you must have a little technical content? How can you change things like this? But Mr. Xia doesn’t care. Everything is the most important thing to dig a grave? What’s more, even if Shi Jie’s body is really dug out, he is ready to defend himself! No matter what, he can’t hurt him half a hair!

Things developed completely according to Xia Shu's vision. The Song Dynasty sent a specialist to Shandong to preside over the feat of digging graves. It was about to be dug, but some people couldn't stand it anymore. The local officials asked the prison officers to recruit more than 200 people to jointly guarantee: Everyone had witnessed that Shi Jie was indeed buried in this grave. If there was any falsehood, I would rather everyone be punished!

The specialist thought about it and turned back to Beijing. The prison officer was right. Xia Shu was shameless, and the Song Dynasty was shameless! What if the body dug out was Shi Jie, where would the country be put? But I didn't know that Xia Shu didn't care at all. Even if I dug it, I heard that Shi Jie died of poverty and illness, and she lost weight before she died. It had been almost a year since then. If someone could recognize him, he would have seen a ghost!

Under such circumstances, Lord Xia finally made Shi Jie immortal and became a genius long-distance running athlete. He appeared in every corner of the Song Dynasty every year, rebelling for Fu Bi and moving for Fan Zhongyan until all the gentlemen were tormented to death! Even if they were tormented to death, they could be disgusting!

The Privy Councilor Xia Shuxia was proud in the capital, ignoring everyone's disgusting eyes, and went to the palace every day. Everything I did was to contribute to the Song Dynasty!

On November 28, the Song Dynasty, which had been calm for three years, finally had a major incident. It was quite serious and was the most taboo rebellion in the Song Dynasty! This rebellion ranked second in the Renzong Dynasty, but in fact, it should be the first in terms of strength. In particular, the preparations for the main mutiny were very well-established, far better than the top-ranked man. Because he was an active-duty soldier himself.

This man was named Wang Ze. He was born in Zhuozhou, Hebei. He was lonely since childhood. His fate was a common file for ordinary soldiers in the Northern Song Dynasty imperial guards. He was a good citizen, but after a famine, he could not live in the local area. He fled abroad and was hungry and was about to commit an offense. As a result, the court recruited soldiers. So he became a regular national army. In fact, as a regular army of the Northern Song Dynasty, the treatment was very good, and even very ideal. Not only could he have no worries about food and clothing, but even his family members could join the army, live in the military compound, receive money, rice and cloth from the army, and live from time to time, and make some extra money with his leaders on their backs and help them go out for business and make some extra money. Very good? This is the best placement plan that Zhao Kuangyin, a veteran of that year, came up with the best placement plan for future peers. What else can I fight for?

Wang Zeyou! This man rebelled was by no means a man who forced the people to rebel and could not force himself. He had lofty ideals, strict organization and huge accomplices, and even powerful brainwashing tools, which were different from other thugs in terms of thought.

He believes in Buddhism! This should be a very common and normal thing. But there are two things to note: 1. In the past dynasties, there are many things that use belief in this thing to rebel, including Zhangjiao of the Han Dynasty and Taiping Heavenly Kingdom of the Qing Dynasty. It can be seen that this thing is very useful. 2. Buddhism? Even illiterate knows that it is a religion that promotes kindness and pursues peace. Why can it be used to rebel and kill people?

This is related to the quality of the Chinese people. Whether in ancient times or in modern times, how many believers who believe in Buddhism really read Buddhist scriptures? How many of them listened to the advocacy of local gods and witches and "preachers" like "committees"? At this time, Wang Ze successfully became the leader of the Buddhist rebel group, and had two magic weapons: he had cultural knowledge, wrote "Buddhist scriptures" such as the "Five Dragon Sutra" and "Tear Sutra" and various mysterious prophecies. This is very amazing. He knows how to figure out the psychology of the public and then writes actual works. Putting aside the issue of level, he himself

He did the same thing as the founders of various religions. He was very clever, but this was not a reason for the public to be deceived. So he also had a second weapon: auspiciousness! Wang Ze often went to the streets with his shirtlessness to let everyone see his back: there is a word "fu" on it. This was his mother stabbed him before he fled to famine, so that he could recognize it no matter how it changed many years later. It was nothing more than an anti-counterfeiting sign. But under the halo of religion, there was a sacred meaning: this is born, and it was a symbol of heaven's Maitreya Buddha coming to the realm of the Tathagata Buddha to save sentient beings...

Wang Ze has more and more believers. In just a few years, the land of Hebei has reached a saturation point. He has to rebel, otherwise it will leak. The facts are really revealed. He originally wanted to rebel in the new day of the first day of the first lunar month next year, and first cut off the floating bridge in Chanzhou, cut off the most important passage between Henan and Hebei, so that Hebei's military important land would paralyze the entire Hebei Road! But Pan Fangjing's
Chapter completed!
