He ascended the throne in the midst of chaos, and it was difficult to overcome the crisis. He respected the two saints from afar.
It is wise to read history and use history as a mirror. Reading history in your spare time is indeed a good thing.
However, was the most enlightening event in the history of Song Dynasty really just the disgrace of Jingkang, the second emperor of Huiqin?
I hope he is overthinking it.
If Sun Ge knew Yu Qian's thoughts, he would definitely sigh as a confidant.
The second emperor of Huiqin was captured and became a prisoner and suffered humiliation.
Taizong of the Jin Dynasty named Huizong of the Song Dynasty the title of Duke of Huunde, and Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty was granted the title of Marquis of Chonghun.
Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty even wrote in a sad and desolate way: "The west wind shakes the door all night long, and the lonely house in the depression has a dim light. Looking back three thousand miles from the home mountain, there are no wild geese flying to the south of the broken mountain."
He also asked the escaped envoy to tell Zhao Gou not to forget to save him.
The results of it?
Saved?
Did you welcome him?
Huizong was imprisoned for nine years and died in Five Kingdoms City.
In the end, the Southern Song Dynasty's lighthearted Yaoshang honored the emperor with the posthumous title of Saint Wen, Benevolent, Virtuous and Filial Emperor, and the temple name Huizong.
There are so many ways to die, including falling into the water, getting sick, even choking on food, as long as you can kill the emperor, you have to learn from the cruelty and experience of the predecessors.
The sky was getting dark, and Zhu Qiyu, who had been bothered all day, finally had a chance to take a breath.
When he first came to supervise the country, he was really tired of dealing with it.
It is really tiring to deal with the Empress Dowager Sun and the ministers.
The dim sky seemed more like hope to him.
On the way back to the Prince's Mansion, one could still see the wealthy squires from the capital leaving the capital in a hurry, dragging their families with them.
Ordinary people are also busy packing their bags and leaving when they can.
It seemed that everyone had silently concluded that the capital could not be defended.
The best outcome is to move south.
Zhu Qiyu let out a long sigh, and his relaxed mood became solemn again.
He was not sure whether this road could be passed.
easy to say, hard to do.
But the mother-in-law still has the integrity to never hide or retreat, and the civil servants are willing to take the lead and stick to it. As the supervisor of the country, he has no reason to retreat.
Zhu Qiyu took off the string of Buddhist beads and kept moving the beads.
It was spinning faster and faster, just like his mind at the moment, filled with countless thoughts.
How to defend the capital?
Your Majesty, how can I redeem it?
What is the future path?
Unconsciously, Zhu Qiyu increased his strength, and the string of beads was overwhelmed and scattered in the carriage.
One by one, every sound seemed to hit his heart.
There was a dull sound, and Zhu Qiyu suddenly came back to his senses.
Looking at the Buddhist beads scattered on the ground, he sighed softly and bent down to pick them up one by one.
This string of Buddhist beads that had helped his mother and concubine turn misfortune into good fortune several times was suddenly torn off by him. When his mother and concubine asked about it, she found it difficult to explain.
"Have you ever informed the palace that I am having dinner with the concubine?"
Zhu Qiyu raised his voice and asked.
Outside the carriage, Shu Liang replied respectfully, "Your Highness, I will send someone back to report to the concubine before the hour."
Zhu Qiyu hummed slightly without saying anything.
Lean on the carriage, close your eyes and relax.
She was as smart as her mother and concubine, and she could guess that the Empress Dowager Sun intended to let him supervise the country, so she could definitely give him some advice.
On this day in the Wenhua Palace, he felt like a cicada, bound by overlapping cocoons.
Sometimes he is impassioned, but he can't help but want to retreat.
Tangled and wandering, the layers of thick calluses on his body became tighter and tighter until they suffocated him.
But underneath the thick cocoon, there was something vaguely hidden.
He knew in his heart that he could no longer hesitate like this.
The carriage stopped suddenly, and Zhu Qiyu almost hit him.
Before he could ask what happened, he heard begging for mercy from outside the carriage.
Zhu Qiyu lifted the curtain, and there was a father and daughter kneeling on the ground in fear.
The clothes are plain and simple, and the texture is even more ordinary.
"Noble man, spare your life, noble man, spare your life."
Zhu Qiyu said in a deep voice, "Why?"
"My lord, the capital is going to be in trouble."
"If you don't leave, you will either die under Oala's iron cavalry and destroy the city and people, or you will become a prisoner of Oala."
"However, the migration journey is far away and the mountains and rivers are vast. Without enough transportation, even if you leave the capital, you won't be able to survive."
"The ordinary people have no choice but to sell their daughters to wealthy families. One by one they can go."
"My little girl refused to obey and ran away here. She accidentally hit the noble man's car frame. Please forgive me for your life."
Hearing this, Zhu Qiyu was silent for a moment and said, "Get up."
"If you can't leave, then stay."
"The capital will not be lost, and the Ming Dynasty will not be defeated by Wala again and again."
Yes, not all families can afford to move south.
I don’t know how many people will die along the way.
"The imperial court will not move south, let alone abandon the people of the capital."
In a desperate fight, the defense of the capital must not lose.
When a city is lost, it is not just a war or a city that is lost, but also countless people and their hearts.
If possible, people would never leave their homes.
Zhu Qiyu lowered the curtain again and said softly, "Go back home."
In the long streets of the capital, you can see something more real than the officials crying and wailing in the Wenhua Palace.
The carriage moved forward slowly again.
Under the night, someone seemed to recognize Zhu Qiyu's carriage.
"It seems to be the symbol of Prince Tan's Palace."
"It's King Tan."
"The prince's words should be credible, right?"
Faintly, a sound drifted into Zhu Qiyu's ears along the wind.
Before this, Zhu Qiyu never thought that one day, he would be regarded by the people as hope in a desperate situation.
Perhaps, Wenhua Palace’s supervision of the country is not just about restraint.
Zhu Qiyu's tightly frowned brows gradually relaxed.
As he got closer and closer to the palace, Zhu Qiyu's heart became calmer and quieter.
However, the atmosphere in the palace seemed to be different from usual.
The footsteps of the servants became cautious.
As soon as Zhu Qiyu changed his clothes, Dian Book Chengjing informed him about the affairs of his house.
The princess packed her bags to avoid the limelight?
This was said quite euphemistically.
Cheng Jing was selected as a member of the Imperial Academy and was sent to the Shanxi Prince's Mansion to worship the emperor. Later, the King of Jin was accused of colluding with the King of Han with evil intentions. Cheng Jing was implicated and was punished by corruption. Later, he entered the Mansion of the Prince of Nie and served the king with a book of scriptures and lectures.
Both the eunuchs Shu Liang and Cheng Jing were highly favored by Zhu Qiyu and were Zhu Qiyu's confidants.
"Is the mother-in-law angry?"
Cheng Jing lowered his head and said, "The concubine remained calm and showed no signs of sadness or joy. She just declared that the concubine must follow the rules in the courtyard."
Zhu Qiyu frowned, his face expressionless.
His first wife, Wang, was the daughter of the commander of Jinwu's left guard.
In the past, the mother-in-law and the princess had always been at odds with each other, and there were many quarrels.
He is a vassal king who has no real power and is disliked by the Queen Mother. The background of his mother and concubine cannot help but be scrutinized carefully.
The mother-in-law is overbearing, and Wang's temperament is also domineering and stubborn.
There was a lot of quarrel, and he was caught in the middle.
But now that the mother-in-law has confessed to him, she will never meet the Wang family again.
"Go down."
Zhu Qiyu didn't take anyone with him, he carried a lantern and walked slowly to Sunge's courtyard.
Outside the courtyard, hanging lanterns gave off a warm glow.
