Chapter 384 The Heavenly Book Incident

"Zhao Kuangyin, Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty, we have talked about it before, what is the history of his rise to power? He was originally a general of Zhou Shizong Chai Rongxinzhong. When Zhou Shizong died and his successor was young, Zhao Kuangyin took advantage of this opportunity to rebel against Chen Qiao and wear a yellow robe. Founded the Song Dynasty."

When Wuyou talked about this, he released a map of the Northern Song Dynasty.

"Actually, if we really talk about it, the Northern Song Dynasty is not a unified dynasty."

"Let's take a look at the map from that time."

Under the canopy

Everyone saw a huge map displayed on the sky screen, which marked the location of the Northern Song Dynasty. Looking at the Khitan in the north of the Northern Song Dynasty, Xixia and Tubo in the west, and Dali, Dayue and other countries in the south.

It can be said that countries large and small surrounded the Northern Song Dynasty, limiting its living space.

"Just such a small piece?"

"Yes, it is far different from the country of Tang Dynasty."

"Not as good as us big guys."

Many people started talking.

Qin Dynasty

The First Emperor looked at the map, turned around, took a book, and opened a certain page. There was also a map on it, which was similar to the one posted on the sky curtain.

Fusu stood outside the palace and watched. While watching, he said: "Later generations are really weak. Why is the land area getting smaller and smaller? What did the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty do..."

汉朝

Liu Che was also looking at the map.

"It's too small, it's too small. It's time to use more force to knock down all the countries around us."

Thinking about the emperors of the Song Dynasty that the fairy had said, Liu Che shook his head: "Too weak."

宋朝

Looking at the map displayed on the sky screen, the emperors of the Song Dynasty were also quite embarrassed.

You wouldn’t know without looking at the map, but you would be shocked to see that the country of the Song Dynasty was really not that big. Look at the Khitan, its territory is bigger than that of the Northern Song Dynasty. Look at the countries around it...it’s so sad.

The same goes for the fairies. They don't save any face and just put the map on them. Doesn't this make them die?

Wuyou finished showing the map and said: "The Northern Song Dynasty faced powerful enemies and only had such a small amount of territory. During the prosperous Tang Dynasty, so many territories were torn apart. However, the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty still emphasized culture and suppressed military affairs, and even emphasized culture over military affairs. In the end, the territory It became smaller and smaller, slowly decreasing from north to south. When there was no way to retreat, the last emperor jumped into the sea and died."

At this time, Wuyou's voice was a little sad: "The more powerful enemies are around, the more we should not slack off. We should improve our armaments and train our troops well. However, so many emperors in the Northern Song Dynasty kept suppressing military generals, which made the status of military generals less and less in the late Song Dynasty. The lower it is, the less warlords will form, but it will be invaded by other countries and eventually die at the hands of foreigners."

"Well, let's talk about the emperors of the Song Dynasty. After the death of Song Taizu, his younger brother Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi succeeded to the throne. We have also talked about this, Breaking Bad, Gaolianghe Chariot God, he can suppress military generals better than his brother. "

"Zhao Guangyi reigned for 21 years. After his death, his son Zhao Heng succeeded him, who was Song Zhenzong."

"When we talked about female politicians before, we talked about Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty Liu E. Let us mention it again. Liu E came from a humble background and got married at a young age. She married the silversmith Gong Mei, and later Gong Mei He dedicated her to Zhao Heng, who was still the king of Han. Zhao Heng liked Liu E very much and doted on her very much."

"But this matter reached Song Taizong's ears, and Song Taizong ordered Zhao Heng to drive away Liu E."

"Has Zhao Heng obeyed? That's for sure not. On the surface, he agreed, but in fact, he secretly placed Liu E in the home of Zhang Qi, the commander of the palace. Liu E stayed there for fifteen years. She became Zhao Heng's wife. A secret lover for fifteen years, she was not taken into the palace until Zhao Heng ascended the throne."

"Why are you mentioning Liu E again?" "Last time we talked about Liu E, we mentioned her political talent and her contribution to the safe transfer of power in the Northern Song Dynasty. This time we mention her, we want to talk about one thing, that is After Liu E came to power, she sold her ex-husband Gong Mei and changed her name to Liu Mei, calling her Liu E's brother and entering the court as an official."

"Queen Mother Liu is really generous. She promoted and reused her ex-husband who sold her out. Maybe she had no one to use, so she promoted Liu Mei. Maybe she thought that it was because of Liu Mei that she could meet Zhao Heng. , only then can I have that glorious life.”

"But her behavior will undoubtedly send the wrong signal to people at the time."

"When many speculators see Liu Mei, they will think of Liu Mei's behavior of selling his wife for glory, and they will want to follow suit."

"Seeing how beautiful his wife is, he wants to sell her for money or power."

"Not every woman is Liu E, and not everyone is as lucky as she is. What will happen to the women who are sold...and what kind of misfortune they will encounter, we don't know this, but we can imagine it. , most women may have a very difficult life."

"Liu E's behavior encourages men to commit crimes."

"She is telling the world that even if you commit a crime and sell your wife, you will not be punished. On the contrary, if you are lucky, your ex-wife may repay your kindness for selling her, give you an official job, and give you money to spend... "

Wuyou said this with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"After becoming the queen mother of a country, she is the mother of a country and has to consider the people of the world. Among the people of the world, are there only men, and women are not human beings?"

She asked angrily: "Why didn't you consider the woman's situation? In the environment at that time, women were weak and survival was already difficult. What she did undoubtedly made the woman's life more difficult."

"The country is a public instrument, and those in power must at least be public-minded and cannot abolish public service for personal reasons. But Liu E did not do well in this regard. She did not distinguish between public and private matters..."

After Wuyou said this, he picked up the cup and looked at the camera: "I want to say that buying and selling people is a crime. Even if this person is your wife, it is still a crime... In fact, when it comes to the law of fairness for women, it is still us. The First Emperor did the best, but later generations will not be able to do as much."

Qin Dynasty

The First Emperor laughed when he heard this.

Behind him, Fusu and Lu Pheasant were whispering.

Lu Pheasant said softly: "Is this Liu E sick? He sold her out. Not only did he not hate her, but he gave her glory and wealth to that scumbag?"

Fusu gently held Lu Zhi's hand: "Well, what you are saying is that men like this should take revenge severely."

宋朝

Liu E's face flushed and looked very ugly.

Liu Mei, who was outside the palace, was so angry that she smashed the inkstone on the table.

After a long while, Liu E said: "The fairy is so high up, how can he understand my situation? If I live in a different place with the fairy, I don't know what the fairy would do."

Wuyou waited for a while and then continued: "Speaking of Song Zhenzong, we must mention the Heavenly Book incident that ran through Zhenzong's dynasty."

"Since the first year of Dazhong Xiangfu, Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty pretended to have gods and men send letters five times, and carried out many large-scale activities, such as conferring Zen on Mount Tai, etc. Because of his behavior, no king in later generations would ever go to Mount Tai. Feng Chan.”

"Because of large-scale cultural carnivals such as the Tianshu Incident, large-scale construction and Taoist temples were built. At the same time, many opportunistic and treacherous officials were condoned."

"For example, the five ghosts represented by Wang Qinruo and Ding Wei."

"Why did Song Zhenzong carry out such activities? We have to start with the Tanyuan Alliance."
