The world of film and television begins with Ning'an as a dream

In July of the same year, Wang's father and mother sent Wang Yue's son Wang Dong to Qiongzhou, and took their third son Wang Sheng back to their hometown in Suzhou to visit relatives.

In the same year, winter,

After the death of the Empress Dowager, the old party began to decline, and the new party rose again, temporarily suppressing the old party, and reforms continued.

The death of the Empress Dowager reduced the influence of the old party on the emperor, but they still refused to give up and came up with new ideas.

In the ninth year of Xining, Xia

Shen Congxing wrote to the emperor again, respecting His Majesty's biological father as his ancestor, and gained support from the old party. This massive remonstrance caused a sensation in Tokyo.

The new emperor wanted to postpone it, but his biological mother cried when she came to the palace to meet the queen, and even knelt down to the queen in front of the emperor, which scared the queen so much that she knelt on the ground as well.

The emperor could not bear the pressure and had no choice but to compromise with his biological mother. He issued an edict to adopt his biological father as Renzong's son, respecting him as the late father and his biological mother as the empress dowager.

In order to prevent the emperor from noticing that they wanted the emperor to recognize his biological mother in order to seek help, the old party did not invite the empress dowager to put pressure on the emperor at the beginning, and the reform was still implemented with difficulty.

In the same year, in the summer, Yang Yizhen of Dali launched a coup, killed the king Duan Lianyi and established himself as the emperor, changing the reign title to De'an and naming himself Emperor Guang'an.

Gao Shengtai, who was the prime minister of Dali at the time, led his troops to attack Yang Yizhen under the order of his father Gao Zhisheng, and supported Duan Shouhui as the emperor of Dali.

While the two sides were at war, under the command of Wang Yue, the Wang family of Jiaozhi led an army of 80,000 troops in two directions and attacked Dali.

They were unstoppable all the way. Yang Yizhen, Gao Shengtai and Duan Shouhui fled north in panic, but were captured on the border between Dali and the Song Dynasty, and the Dali Kingdom was destroyed.

In the winter of the ninth year of Xining

Wang Xu discovered that Sheng Changdong was suppressed during the imperial examination and failed to even pass the exam to become a Jinshi. The last bit of goodwill he had for the Song Dynasty was completely gone.

So he gave up the imperial examination and went south. After meeting Wang Yue in Qiongzhou, he went to integrate Dali and Jiaozhi, established the Ming Dynasty, and named the era Pingnan.

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Xu found that the people in the two places had no objection to him becoming emperor and were very supportive, which made him very excited.

So he sent someone to invite Wang Yue and Minglan to return to the country and no longer need to serve as officials in the Song Dynasty, but Wang Yue refused. The envoy had no choice but to take Wang's father and mother with him.

In the tenth year of Xining in the Song Dynasty and the second year of Pingnan in the Ming Dynasty, spring

After a year of silence, the old party suddenly organized many places to report on corruption cases caused by the reform.

It happened that the north was suffering from severe drought for consecutive years. An official named Zheng Xia presented a picture of refugees to the emperor. The scene was so horrific that the emperor was greatly shocked.

The next day, the emperor ordered the temporary suspension of 18 laws, including the Qingmiao, Fangtian, and exemption from military service.

In February of the same year, Wang Anshi was removed from his position as deputy prime minister and, like Wang Yue, was banished from the capital.

The Double Kings' Reform officially ended.

In March of the same year, after sending someone to inquire about Wang Yue, the Ming Emperor Wang Xu officially dispatched an army of 100,000 in four routes to attack the southern countries.

Although the Wang Family Trading Company's feng shui map guided the way, the attack was still slow. Fortunately, merchant ships continuously brought in population and food from the Song Dynasty, so there was no problem with logistics and the pace of expansion did not stop.

In September of the same year, after Wang Anshi was dismissed, the emperor was still somewhat unwilling to give up, so he changed the reign title to Yuanfeng and continued his reforms in an effort to strengthen the country.

Although the purpose of the Yuanfeng Reform was similar to that of the Xining Reform, its reform intensity could not be compared with that of the Xining Reform by Wang Shuang.

Fortunately, the two kings' reforms were not completely denied, and the national strength of the Song Dynasty was stabilized.

In the fourth year of Yuanfeng in the Song Dynasty and the sixth year of Pingnan in the Ming Dynasty, spring

After five years of war, the Ming Dynasty pacified the southern countries. The southern islands all submitted to the Ming Dynasty and the emperor changed the era name to Dingguo.

In April of the same year, a coup d'état took place in Western Xia, and Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty took the opportunity to once again invade Western Xia.

After more than a month of preparation, the Song army divided into five armies, intending to destroy Western Xia in one fell swoop. However, it suffered a disastrous defeat and the emperor fell ill.

The fourth year of Dingguo in the Ming Dynasty and the eighth year of Yuanfeng in the Song Dynasty.

The beginning of the first lunar month

The Emperor of the Song Dynasty was critically ill and appointed his sixth son Zhao Yong as the crown prince. After Wang Yue received the news, he resigned from his post and traveled thousands of miles to Kyoto to see the critically ill emperor for the last time.

Zhao Xu's face turned pale. When he heard Wang Yue coming, he forced himself to cheer up and said breathlessly, "Teacher, I regret it! If I had listened to you, I'm afraid the reform would have gone smoothly. What a pity!"

Chapter 228: Awakening from a dream and unifying the world!

The emperor said this because he himself knew very well that while he was alive, the reform could still survive, but when he died, the reform would be gone.

After all, his son was still very young, and the one in power was the empress dowager whom he had invited back, so it was basically impossible for him to continue the reforms.

Wang Yue sighed. He had no idea. He had made his words clear, but the emperor still honored his own mother as the empress dowager. Didn't he know that it was easier to invite a god than to send him away?

He didn't know what to say, so he said helplessly, "It's God's will. Your Majesty is gone, and I will learn from Jiefu and prepare to resign and go home."

Zhao Xu understood that Wang Yue was disheartened, so he did not say much to persuade him. After all, Wang Yue had been wronged over the years.

Therefore, he could only say helplessly, "When I met the teacher, I always had great ambitions. Unfortunately, I didn't get the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun before I died. I don't know if the Song Dynasty will ever get them back."

Wang Yue saw that Zhao Xu was still thinking about the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun until his death, and knew that this was what he had been looking forward to since he was a child, so he comforted him helplessly, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun will be returned sooner or later."

After hearing what Wang Yue said, Zhao Xu's eyes seemed to be shining with a last ray of light, as if he had seen the future of taking back the Sixteen States of Yanyun.

Unfortunately, it didn’t take long for his vision to become somewhat unfocused, and his life came to an end.

He was only thirty-eight years old when he died.

He started reforms as soon as he took office, and he saw with his own eyes that the reforms were completed before he died.

When Wang Yue left the palace, the Queen Mother, who was the Princess Consort of England at that time, looked at Wang Yue with a complicated expression but did not say anything to Wang Yue.

She knew that Wang Yue was doing this for her son's good, but she also had her own stance. She not only had a son, but also had more than just a son.

However, when Wang Yue was about to leave, King Xiaoying accompanied Wang Yue all the way to Zhuxian Town, and then rode back to Beijing. He knew that Wang Yue was doing this for the Song Dynasty, but he could do nothing about it.

Chang Dong was probably implicated by Wang Yue. He failed the imperial examinations several times in a row and became discouraged.

Old Lady Sheng wanted to spend some time with her grandson to relax, so she went south with Wang Yue and Minglan, hoping to help Changdong broaden his horizons.

After they left, there was nothing left in Kyoto except some old friends.

In the fifth year of Ming Dingguo, Xia

In April, Western Xia had a dispute with Song over the demarcation of the border, so it sent troops to attack Song along the Jingyuan Road.

In May, Liang Yibu, the prime minister of Western Xia, bribed the Tibetan envoys with generous gifts and asked the Tibetan leader Aligu to attack the Song Dynasty at the same time. They agreed that of the Song Dynasty’s captured land, the three states of Xi, He and Min would be returned to Tubo, and Lanzhou and Dingxi City would be returned to Western Xia.

After receiving the gift, Aligu led the Tibetan soldiers to attack Taozhou. Liang Yibu led tens of thousands of Western Xia troops out of Hezhou at the same time. The two armies joined forces and besieged Nanchuan Village together.

After receiving the news, Gu Tingye asked for help from the capital, but unfortunately, since he was a close confidant of Emperor Shenzong, he was isolated this time and the reinforcements were delayed in arriving.

His father's old subordinates and father-in-law's troops wanted to come, but they dared not to because they had no orders. They could only watch other reinforcements slowly pass by and see Gu Tingye in deep danger.

Gu Tingye felt a little resentful, so he wrote a letter to Wang Yue to complain. He felt that if the Song Dynasty continued like this, not to mention the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, even the current territory would be slowly eroded.

In June, after receiving the news, Wang Yue felt that in order to stabilize the country, he must first resist foreign aggression, so he told the Ming Emperor Wang Xu and asked him to send troops to Tubo to prepare to besiege Wei to save Zhao.

Wang Xu originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to seize Shuzhong. After receiving Wang Yue's letter, he thought that it would be no problem to seize Tubo first and then come back to seize Shuzhong, which could also intimidate the foreign countries.

So he sent Wang Sheng, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, who was Wang Yue's third son, to lead an army of 100,000 to attack Tubo.

Because of the sufficient preparation, the army conquered Medog in just three days. After receiving the news, the Tubo Imperial City summoned various tribes to form an army of 100,000 to besiege. However, they did not expect to encounter a gunpowder ambush arranged by Wang Sheng halfway, and the 100,000-strong army either surrendered or was destroyed.

After receiving this news, the remaining tribes gave up and fled in all directions. The Ming army took the opportunity to move eastward and surrounded the Tibetan capital, Lhasa.

Although the defenders of the Tibetan imperial city were ready to die, they could only resist for three days under the siege of gunpowder before they were defeated and all the Tibetan royal family members were captured.

The Ming army quickly returned and captured nearby towns, and most of the other tribes expressed their willingness to submit.

At this point, the Tubo Kingdom was destroyed.

Seeing that the war was going well, Wang Sheng arranged for reinforcements from Dali to defend the city of Luoshui, gather the surrendered Tibetan tribes and stabilize the situation in Tibet. He personally led the army to sweep across the Tibetan tribes, recruiting more and more rebels along the way.

In July, upon receiving the news, Aligu hastily withdrew his troops back to Qingtang, and also submitted a letter to the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, declaring his allegiance and requesting the Song army's support in restoring his country.

At the same time, Aligu asked Xixia for reinforcements and was willing to cede Qingtang as a reward if the restoration of the country was successful.

In the spring of the sixth year of the Ming Dynasty,

Liang Yibu, the prime minister of Western Xia, withdrew his troops from the Song Dynasty and joined forces with Aligu to fight against Wang Sheng's 300,000-strong army that was besieging Qingtang.

The Song Dynasty felt threatened by the Ming Dynasty, and although it did not send troops to fight together, it also provided a large amount of food and fodder, intending to keep the two sides in a stalemate.

In the same year, summer

Upon receiving the news that the Song Dynasty was supporting Aligu, the Ming Emperor dispatched Prince Wang Dong, Wang Yue's second son, to lead an army of 200,000 to attack Guangnan of the Song Dynasty with the assistance of the Ming navy. All the prefectures and counties in Guangnan surrendered without a fight, and the Ming army took advantage of the situation and marched northward.

At the same time, seeing that the war was going well, Wang Dong submitted a petition to send more troops, which was approved by the Ming court.

The reinforcements attacked Shuzhong from Jianchang and Shicheng, and they were unstoppable all the way, and Shuchuan was quickly captured.

The Empress Dowager of the Song Dynasty was shocked when she heard the news. She pulled the little emperor out of bed at night and summoned Sima Guang and others to discuss countermeasures.

Now the court is full of old parties, and the new parties have all been suppressed. Even all the reforms of Emperor Shenzong have been corrected. Shenzong's reforms over more than ten years have been destroyed.

Because the court was already in chaos and panic, only the old party discussed countermeasures, and the debate lasted for a long time without reaching a conclusion.

Wang Dong's army did not stop and quickly reached Jiangling. More than half of the Song Dynasty's territory had fallen into the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, the reason why Guangnan surrendered without a fight was because Wang Yue wrote a letter to personally persuade them to surrender. His old subordinates were everywhere here, and the people were on Wang Yue's side, so Guangnan was taken so quickly.

While the Ming army was sweeping through the counties south of the Yangtze River, Wang Yue went to visit Wang Anshi who was ill in Jiangning.

Wang Anshi is now somewhat disheartened. His son is dead, his wife is dead, and the reform he dreamed of is also dead. He is the only one left, and he is not going to die soon!

Seeing Wang Yue coming, he didn't know that Nan Fang Daming was Wang Yue's son. He said with emotion, "I have been wondering who will come to see me. I didn't expect it to be you."

The reason he said this was that the reforming New Party was suppressed by Empress Dowager Gao and Sima Guang, and those who had originally defected to him were now either thousands of miles away or had directly betrayed Wang Anshi and turned the tables on him and defected to the old party.

Sima Guang, who was headed by the Old Party, was also happy to accept such people. After all, with these people speaking out, it would be easier to strike back at Wang Anshi.

Therefore, Wang Anshi, who was demoted to the prefect of Jiangning, had very few visitors, so he was very moved when he saw Wang Yue coming.

Wang Yue felt a little ashamed when he saw Wang Anshi's grateful look, but he continued, "I came here to persuade Jiefu to help persuade the counties to surrender. I promise that your reforms will continue in the Ming Dynasty."

Wang Anshi did not expect that Wang Yue was here to persuade them to surrender. He was silent for a long time before he said, "I can write a few letters for you, but I'm not sure if it will work."

Seeing Wang Anshi agree, Wang Yue smiled and said, "Of course, I don't want to cause too much casualties in the Song Dynasty. After all, the people who are hurt are ordinary people. I just want to do my best and leave the rest to fate."

After hearing what Wang Yue said, Wang Anshi dragged himself to start writing letters. He wrote every letter very carefully, which showed that he was actually very disappointed!

After Wang Yue received the letter and left, he left a few imperial doctors with Wang Anshi and said comfortingly, "You must take care of your health and wait for the reform to continue."

But Wang Anshi smiled bitterly and said, "Keep Yan Hui and give your Majesty's son a chance to survive."

Wang Yue knew who His Majesty Wang Anshi was talking about. He nodded and agreed.

With the letters from Wang Anshi and others, as well as Wang Yue's own connections and taking advantage of the New Party's unwillingness, the Ming army was almost unstoppable and soon surrounded the city of Tokyo.

At this point, there was no need for Wang Yue to send anyone into the city to persuade them, as the old party members persuaded Empress Dowager Gao to surrender on their own.

When Empress Dowager Gao saw this situation, she knew that the situation was hopeless and she could only take the little prince out of the city to surrender.

Wang Yue did not make things difficult for them, not even for the royal family. He arranged for them to stay in Jiangling and let the little King Ying go with him to continue northward, taking over the land of the Song Dynasty along the way.

In the same year, winter,

The Western Xia was wiped out by the joint attack of the armies of two princes of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Dong and Wang Sheng, and the Western Xia royal family was moved to Jiangling.

Xixia, destroyed.

After Xixia was easily wiped out, the somewhat uneasy public opinion of the royal family suddenly came together.

This is the land lost by the Song Dynasty, and taken back by the Ming Dynasty!

In the eighth year of the Ming Dynasty, spring

The Ming Dynasty rested for two years, sorted out its internal affairs, and stabilized the situation at the court.

In the same year, the Ming Dynasty moved its capital to Jiangling.

In the same year, summer

The Ming Dynasty sent out troops from Xingqing Prefecture and Daming Prefecture in two routes, the east and the west, respectively. They were unstoppable and successfully joined forces outside Shangjing City.

In the winter of the same year, Liao Dynasty destroyed

The Ming Dynasty, which unified the country, had two princes guarding the north and the west, but Wang Yue, the emperor, stayed in Qiongzhou and watched the south.

Of course, all the work was done by the servants. He accompanied Minglan and Old Lady Sheng and Old Man Wang on their trips.

On an unknown night, when Wang Yue came back from playing and was sleeping, he suddenly heard the sound of the system.

"Ding, the dream is over, the host is about to return!"

"Ding, the host is returning to the journey..."
