A butterfly flapping its wings may cause a tsunami in another hemisphere.

A letter from Qin Luo caused a slight change in the trajectory of the Song Dynasty.

You may be confused.

How does this system exchange things between two parties?

Just like this letter to Song Huizong.

The system did not directly send the letter to Song Huizong, but through Song Taizong's dream.

Only in this way will it be more reasonable for Song Huizong to believe it.

Otherwise, a hasty letter will only make him suspicious, and he will think that it is a frame-up and nonsense by a certain minister.

After systematic processing, all methods of exchange with the ancients are the most suitable to achieve the purpose.

And similarly,

The same goes for cultural relics that traveled thousands of years from ancient times back to modern times.

Of course, it cannot be painted today and delivered directly to Qin Luo.

It can't be called an antique, because the ink on it may not have dried yet when it got into his hands.

These cultural relics have come to modern times through time and space tunnels and through various reasonable methods.

It is real.

Otherwise, how could Zhang Guowen not have discovered those doubtful points when he authenticated Li Bai's authentic works?

----------

"We mentioned last time that the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty was mainly due to the fact that Song Huizong died at the end of the Xuanhe period due to physical reasons before the New Deal had achieved results. If Song Huizong could have lived two more years, maybe he would not have died. Then there’s the Southern Song Dynasty!”

"It was not until the year before Song Huizong died that he truly looked like an emperor!"

"He began to pay attention to border wars and people's livelihood. If you give him a little more time, maybe the Kingdom of Jin will fail!"

"But there are no ifs in history. After Song Huizong died, Song Qinzong came to power, and the Song Dynasty returned to its previous state of non-resistance. It allowed the Jin Kingdom to invade and only wanted to cede territory and pay compensation!"

"Even figures like Yue Fei had not fully risen in the Song Huizong era!"

This is a history class in a middle school in Sioux City.

The teacher is explaining the story of the late Northern Song Dynasty.

That is to say, Qin Luo didn't hear it, otherwise he would really think that he was insane.

The history in his memory shows that Song Huizong passed the throne to Song Qinzong Zhao Heng early tomorrow, and when did he promote the New Deal?

"Teacher, why did Song Huizong suddenly realize that he wanted to implement the New Deal only in his later years?"

Some students raised their hands and asked.

"It is said that in the seventh year of Xuanhe, Song Huizong had a dream, dreaming that the Zhao Dynasty would perish in his hands, so Song Huizong changed his past debauchery and wrote "On the Early Years of the War between Song and Jin Dynasties" by himself. This article It clearly pointed out the war pattern between Song and Jin at that time, which shows that Song Huizong himself still had a very strong strategic awareness!"

"If Song Qinzong Zhao Heng was not too weak and there was not much time left for the Song Dynasty, otherwise, it would be difficult for the Jin Kingdom to attack Bianjing!"

"In the final analysis, the foundation of the Song Dynasty was too weak, and Song Huizong awakened too late!"

----------

Xuanhe eight years.

September 1126 AD.

Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, was lying on the bed, looking at the curtains with dull eyes.

Just a little bit.

For a whole year, he saw hope that the Song State could resist the Jin State.

Taizong's dream made him wake up from a dream.

When he looked at his country from the perspective of an emperor, he realized how stupid he was before.

such a pity!

His body had already failed him due to his desolation in the early years, and he didn't know if he could make it through this winter.

Zhao Ji is still not ruthless enough.

Although Taizong dreamed of killing Tong Guan and Cai Jing, he did not dare to abolish Confucianism in the Song Dynasty.

Literati in the Song Dynasty were like Wen Tianxiang, but most of them were opportunists seeking political capital.

When he implemented the New Deal, he encountered constraints from all sides.

Although a line of defense has been prepared for external defense,

He is too tired.

"Heng'er, after I die, you must continue to implement the New Deal. This is Taizong's will. Only in this way can we save my Zhao family!"

He looked at the dull-looking prince and felt a little uneasy.

The prince's education since childhood was to read the books of saints and follow the principles of Confucianism.

On many occasions, he even stood between the old parties and tried to undermine the implementation of the New Deal.

The so-called New Deal is actually an ecological destruction of traditional Confucianism.

As the power of the New Deal becomes stronger, the power of the conservatives will gradually be compressed. In addition to the ministers above the court, there are also wealthy families in Luoyang, and even descendants of the Ouyang Xiu family, etc., who are all conservatives.

These people blocked the implementation of the New Deal and restricted the restructuring of the court through the power of Confucian scholars in the world.

The result of this was that Song Huizong's progress was too slow in the end.

It was so slow that he could not quickly unify the internal factional conflicts. Under such restraint, it also led to a slight shortage of military expenditures on the front line.

In short,

Zhao Ji failed in the end.

But he saw a glimmer of hope.

But now, he feels that he is about to pass away, and what happens to his future life is up to them.

After he dies.

The court of the Song Dynasty began to become chaotic again.

Song Qinzong's ability was worse than that of Song Huizong before, and his character was even more incompetent.

He began to re-activate some old officials because these people were representatives of Confucianism.

During the reign of Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty, he overthrew the New Deal and attempted to cede territory and pay indemnity to the Jin Kingdom for peace.

General Zongze, who was already in his seventies at that time, died to prove his ambition, and finally died in the battle against the Jin Kingdom.

The front line was eventually conquered by the Jin Kingdom due to lack of food.

When the Jin Kingdom actually attacked Bianjing City, Zhao Heng thought that if he surrendered or even admitted defeat, the Jin Kingdom would let him go.

Even his conditions for peace were that the Song State be worthy of the Kingdom of Jin as an uncle-nephew country, and that the Song State was willing to surrender one generation and become a vassal state of the Jin State.

What he wants is that the Kingdom of Jin can keep his life and make him a rich man and a puppet.

But this dream was shattered.

After the Jin Kingdom captured Bianjing City, they burned, killed, looted, and committed all the bad things an invader would do.

Then, the entire Zhao family was taken captive to Five Kingdoms City, which is today's Yilan County in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province.

There, Zhao Heng only enjoyed a five-star thatched house and was tortured.

The famous sheep-leading ceremony comes from here.

Song Qinzong lived there for decades. Even the queen at the time committed suicide in order not to be humiliated, but he did not dare to die and almost became a plaything of the Jin Kingdom.

so,

The ending of the Northern Song Dynasty has not changed.

Among them, under the influence of Qin Luo, only Zhao Ji changed.

He was not kidnapped by the Jin Kingdom, but died before that.

In this way, it left a mixed reputation in history.

He is not the king of subjugation. He tried to resist, but it was too late.
