Conference and Prelude
On the 0th, Wang Lun and Gao Gonghui went to the Jin Dynasty to sign a contract with Jin Xizong. The first Shaoxing peace talks kicked off under the leadership of Qin Hui, the Jin Dynasty Wanyan Chang... This first Shaoxing peace talks made Zhao Gou, Qin Hui and a few others overjoyed, but made everyone else in the Song and Jin Dynasty curse...
This month, Wu Jie sent his general Ma Xizhong to attack Xizhou, the capital of Xihe Road. But Ma Xizhong was really a mediocre general. He led his army to set up camp dozens of miles outside Xizhou City. However, the general of the Jin army frightened him so much that he pulled out the camp and fled overnight! After returning, he was beheaded by Wu Jie.
Then he turned his attention to the Xixia, which had not been mentioned for a long time: This year, when Liu Yu's Qi State was deposed, Xia Chongzong Li Ganshun immediately sent someone to send an envoy to Dajin, requesting the re-demarcation of Shaanxi land. Jin Xizong cut the four states of Xining, Le, Kuo and Jishi, which were originally Xihe Road in the Northern Song Dynasty, to Xixia. During the era of Xia Renzong, Li Renxiao, the largest territory in the Xia Dynasty.
In addition to obtaining land, Li Ganshun also got a woman: After the former governor of Xi'an Prefecture of the Song Dynasty, Ren Dejing, presented his 17-year-old daughter to Li Ganshun as his concubine this year. Li Ganshun's crown prince Li Renxiao was 14 years old at this time, and he had to call this concubine Ren mother... Xia Chongzong Li Ganshun had a year and a half to live a good life. After his death, this time the tradition of the Xixia people (the mother and son have a generational discord) will turn into a crisis of national division...
On January 4, 118, Yang Kebi and Yang Ping wrote to Wanyan Chang and Wanyan Zongbi to propose three strategies for peace. "The best strategy: release the coffin of Song Huizong and the royal family of Zhao Song, and return all the land to others. The purpose is to make Zhao Gou pay tribute to the ministers and pay tribute to the previous year; the middle strategy: return the coffin of Song Huizong, and return the land only to the south of the Yellow River; the worst strategy: launch a sudden attack on the Southern Song Dynasty under the name of peace, hoping to destroy the Song Dynasty in a battle." The two also said, "Zhao Gou requested the Jin Dynasty to return the body of his father. If we do not allow it, Zhao Gou will send a mourning army to fight the Northern Expedition in the name of this! This song is with me, not with him."
On the 1st, Song Chao, the former governor of Shouzhou of the puppet Qi, led his soldiers and civilians to return. A mutiny occurred in Caizhou, an important town of the puppet Qi. Liu Yongshou killed the Jin Dynasty's garrison and led the entire city's military and civilians across the river to surrender Yue Fei! The situation is great! Generals such as Yue, Han, Wu sent more informants to penetrate into farther Henan and other places to prepare for the next attack. The above looks very effective and very successful, but compared with their emperors, it is far from their own... After receiving the report from Sun Hui, the prefect of Shouchun, Zhao Gou said, "Will the father be the one who comes back to return? However, Song and Jin are now discussing peace. This move may misunderstand the other party. Now, the defenders along the Huai River are not allowed to send people to Huai River to recruit. As for the puppet Qi, they will be properly placed."
On the 18th, Prime Minister Zhao Ding reported, "We should take advantage of the opportunity to advance and ask for advice from all generals." Emperor Zhao Gou replied, "Today, the coffin of the late emperor, the queen mother, and the emperor Yuansheng are all there. How can I tolerate them to suffer again? If they do not discuss peace, they will not come back." Chen Yuyi, the deputy minister of the government, expressed his support for the emperor. "If the peace agreement can accomplish what we want, wouldn't we be virtuous to use troops? If peace agreement fails, it will not be too late to use troops."
On the 1st, with the recommendation of Hu Jiaoxiu, Minister of Justice, Zhao Gou appointed his subordinate Hu Shijiang to replace Xi Yi as the umpire and governor of Sichuan and the prefect of Chengdu.
On the 7th of the month, Zhao Gou set out from Jiankang Prefecture. Yang Yizhong led the front army of the palace and Xie Qian led the guards to protect the troops. He arrived at Dongyang Town on the same day. Xiashu Town on the 8th, Zhenjiang Prefecture on the 9th, Lucheng Town on the 1st, Changzhou on the 1st, Wuxi County on the 15th, Pingjiang Prefecture on the 18th, Wujiang County on the 18th, Chongde County on the 0th, Linping Town on the 1st. Return to Lin'an Prefecture on the 1st...
On the 5th of the month, Liu Dazhong, the Minister of Rites, was promoted to the Chief Minister of Political Affairs, and Wang Shu, the Minister of War, was promoted to the Deputy Envoy of Privy Council. On the 6th, Qin Hui, the Minister of Privy Council, was appointed as the Right Pushe of the Secretary, and was also the Chief Secretary of the Privy Council. The prime ministers of the Song Dynasty were arranged in the order of positions: Prime Minister Zhao Ding, Second Prime Minister Qin Hui, Deputy Prime Minister Liu Dazhong, and Deputy Envoy of Privy Council Wang Shu. The first three people were closely united, and the last Wang Shu was isolated...
Wang Shu was the North Road Pacifier of Jinghu Road not long ago, and was Yue Fei's colleague. The two were like-minded and both advocated serving the country in a straight line. He firmly opposed peace talks, so on April 7, Wang Shu was kicked out of the court and sent to the Jianghuai coast to inspect the border...
In April, the Song envoy Wang Lun met with Wanyan Chang, the left deputy marshal of the Jin Dynasty in Qizhou. Later, Wanyan Chang sent someone to escort to meet Jin Xizong. With the help of Wanyan Zongpan, Wanyan Jun and others, Wanyan Tan formally sent the peace talks envoy Wulin Dezanmo (also known as Wuling Simou) and Shi Qingchong to Lin'an, the Southern Song Dynasty to negotiate. On May, Zhao Gou appointed Fan Tong and Liu Guangyuan as the chief and deputy escort envoy. On the 7th, Wang Lun and Lan Gongzuo were appointed as the chief and deputy escort envoys, responsible for receiving the Jin envoys.
Wuling Simou was one of the Jin envoys of the Song and Jin sea alliance back then. It was estimated that he had a good relationship with Ma Zheng and Ma Kuo at that time. So as soon as he entered the Song Dynasty, he asked about Ma Kuo everywhere. At Wang Lun's suggestion, on the 7th, Zhao Gou summoned Lizhou Observation Envoy and Dingzhou Ma Kuo to Lin'an quickly.
On June 14, Fan Tong submitted a report to the Jin envoy who had arrived in Changzhou. He welcomed the coffin deputy envoy Gao Gonghui and returned to Lin'an. Zhao Gou once again emphasized to the ministers why he wanted to negotiate peace. "The Empress Dowager was in high spring and autumn, and I missed her day and night, and wanted to meet each other early. Therefore, she was not afraid to surrender herself to achieve peace talks. However, if she was prepared for any trouble, even if she was harmonious, her army would not be abolished." Liu Dazhong, the chief political officer, replied, "Harmony and war defense are not aggravated. If she was dedicated to harmony and forget to fight and defend, she would fall into the enemy's plan." Wang Shu was in Luzhou, but still did not
Duan submitted a memorial to oppose peace talks and proposed three strategies: "The best strategy: detain the Jin envoy, and the Jin will be angry and send troops, so I will defeat him with a dignified army; the middle strategy: Your Majesty must not meet the Jin envoy, and everything will be taken by the ministers to find the bottom line of the Jin country, and then make a decision; the worst strategy: treat the Jin envoy well and show that he is cowardly. When he returns to his country, he will send elite troops to follow and attack, and he will definitely defeat him! Nowadays, people are all willing to fight for Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will break and act." On the 19th, Wang Shu, deputy envoy of the Privy Council, received an edict to return to the court.
On the 1st, Zhang Zongyan, the commander of the Central Guards, was appointed to be in charge of the Huainan West Road Pacification Company, stationed in Luzhou with 7,000 people, and the commander of the Central Guards, and Jushi Gu stationed in Taipingzhou with 3,000 people. He also ordered Liu Qi to move to Zhenjiang Prefecture, Han Shizhong divided his troops to guard the Tianchang Army, and Sizhou. He strived to rebuild a Jianghuai defense system that caused huge flaws due to Liu Guangshi's abolishment and the Huainian Army's transformation.
Facing Wang Shu taking the opportunity to seize Wuling Simou, the mortal enemy, and taking revenge first, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou shook his head sadly, "Wang Aiqing, you forgot an important thing. You can't kill this person now, and you can't obstruct the peace. Your Majesty the Queen Mother is still suffering in the northern country. Now is the only opportunity to take her back south. I rule the world with filial piety. Can't you fulfill this little bit of my heart to miss my mother?" As he said that, Zhao Xiaozi burst into tears and was in pain. So all the high officials under the imperial throne burst into tears out of etiquette, filial piety, and flattery... This move has been tried and won every battle!
But this time Zhao Xiaozi met his opponent, and someone refuted him! A minister named Feng stood up and said, "At this time, the evil between Song and Jin is even more dangerous than the dispute between Chu and Han. It is a situation that will never end between the two nations. How can we ask the surrender of the entire nation in the name of a mother? Besides, such surrender cannot bring peace, and it cannot be equal! Emperor, you should learn from Liu Bang, try to cheer up, and say Liu Bang-like diplomatic rhetoric to the Jurchens..." Before he finished speaking, Zhao Gou covered his face with greater strength and cried bitterly, and sobbed, saying, "It's so terrible! I can't bear to hear such cruel things." Never look for me!
Zhao Gou staggered back to the palace with a full and sincere emotion, leaving behind a stupid minister... worthy of being the leader, so he ended the opposition party. The ironic suggestion actually set off a higher level of filial piety! The originally shameless thing was inlaid with a layer of dazzling gold edge...
On the 20th, Wuling Simou and Shi Qingchong officially entered the Southern Song Palace, faced Zhao Gou, and began the first Shaoxing peace talks! At that time, Zhao Gou "choked up and wiped his tears with his sleeves" and asked Wuling Simou, "How is my mother? Is my brother Emperor Yuansheng? Are my royal relatives okay?"
Wuling Simou was very depressed. How did he answer? He said that your female relatives and friends worked hard to wash clothes and achieved great results? Your male relatives and friends have become qualified and excellent farmers in more than ten years of field work... Isn't this forcing Zhao Gou to curse? He had to say very politicizedly, "But hope the peace agreement will come soon." This is enough, and Zhao Gou immediately expressed his greatest sincerity...
This month, Wanyan Sali, the left supervisor of the Dajin army, retreated from Chang'an and returned to Datong Prefecture. Because the land of Shaanxi was about to be ceded to the Southern Song Dynasty...
On July 1, Wang Lun and Chen Kuo were appointed as the chief and deputy envoy of the coffin of the coffin. They followed Wuling Simou and others to the Jin Kingdom again, and they also held the important task of returning the coffin of the late emperor and the empress dowager.
Zhao Gou agreed to all the terms of the peace agreement, and this was a sensation! All civil and military officials wrote letters to oppose peace talks. Zhang Jie, the censor of the palace, said, "Since ancient times, there has been no one who cannot fight or defend but can be harmonious. If Xiao Talin was shot to death outside the city of Chanzhou, and the Renzong Dynasty did not have the prosperous period of Qingli, then even if there were 100 Cao Yi and 100 Fu Bi, could the peace agreement be signed? Even if it was signed, how could such a peace agreement be guaranteed to last long?"
On the 7th, a debate was also held in the capital of the Jin Kingdom. One side of the debate was the left deputy marshal Wanyan Chang, the Grand Tutor Wanyan Zongpan, and the Taibao Wanyan Zongjun; the other side was the Grand Tutor Wanyan Zonggan, the younger brother of Zonggan Wanyan Zongxian, and Wanyan Chang's younger brother Wanyan Xu. Zongjun "I use land to share the Song Dynasty, and Song must be virtuous." Zongxian "I will capture the father and brother of Song people, and it will not be a day to complain. If you return to land, it is to help you with enemies! What kind of virtue is there! Don't let it go" Chang "If others follow me, do you object?" Xu "If you benefit the country, how dare you privately?" The debate finally came to the debate because the first powerful minister Wanyan Zongpan agreed to discuss peace, and finally decided to return Henan, Shaanxi, which was originally a pseudo-Qi, to the State of Song.
On the 1st, the Jin envoy Wuling Simou returned to China, and Wang Lun and others accompanied him to escort him. Zhao Ding asked Wang Lun Qianding [31 Novel Network] Ten thousand instructions: The Jin Dynasty proposed that each other take the Yellow River as the boundary, but due to Du Chong, the Yellow River has been greatly changed into the Huai River. You must insist on using the Yellow River before it was changed, that is, the peacekeeping standards during the Jingkang period.
This month, Sichuan governor Hu Shijiang arrived at Suining Prefecture on Tongchuan Prefecture Road, and then went north to Lizhou to meet Wu Jie.
On August 1, Jin Xizong officially promulgated the new official system of the reorganized Great Jin Kingdom. On September 14, the Privy Council was changed to the Shangtai Shangshu Province.
In September, the Jin Dynasty moved Li Cheng from Xuzhou on Nanjing Road to Yizhou on Henan East Road, Li Qiong from Gongzhou to Bozhou on Shandong Road, and transported all the gold and silver from Henan and Shaanxi in the north. At the same time, Zhe Keqiu, the last generation leader of the Zhe family army, was poisoned to death by Wanyan Sali in Datong Prefecture. Because Liu Yu was deposed at that time, Wanyan Sali had plotted to make Zhe Keqiu the second Liu Yu. Now the overall situation has been decided, and these lands must be returned to the Southern Song Dynasty. The "Crying Man" was worried that Zhe Keqiu was dissatisfied, so he started to poison him to the forcibly...
On October 1, in order to fight against the increasingly arrogant Wanyan Zongpan, Jin Xizong Wanyan Dan decided to completely upgrade the Jurchen tradition! He gave all the 14 sons born to his uncle Wanyan Zongqiang, Wanyan Zongmin and Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu Qimai, except for the eldest son Zongpan, the rest of the rest were all kings in one breath. Wanyan Zongpan also drew swords to the Taifu Wanyan Zonggan in front of Jin Xizong, and was inspected by the capital Xiao Zhonggong. On the 16th, Jin Xizong issued an edict to prohibit the prince from entering the palace with his sword. On the 18th, Jin Xizong stipulated a system of sealing the country. On the 0th, Wanyan Dan appointed his eighth uncle, and Wanyan Zongjun, who was with Wanyan Zongpan, was the left prime minister and the attendant of the Shangshu, and King Chen.
With the sudden occurrence of peace talks and rapid acceleration, Qin Hui finally ushered in his spring. He had endured for a long time before, from relying on Zhang Jun to pleasing Zhao Ding, he was so low-key! The opportunity finally appeared at this time, and Wanyan Chang, his great backer in the north, finally had the right to speak. At this time, he was not cheered up, and when did he wait? Qin Hui was determined to let go and no longer care about it, so he fought for this time!
But there are several major obstacles at the moment: one is naturally the emperor Zhao Gou, the second is the Southern Song army represented by Yue Fei, and the other is Qin Hui's immediate superior, the imperial prime minister Zhao Ding!
In fact, Zhao Ding agreed with peace talks. He could take back a lot of things such as the old capital of Henan, the queen mother, the tomb of the late emperor, etc., what's wrong with it? But on the one hand, he wanted to collect things, but on the other hand, he wanted to save face, and on the other hand, he wanted to bargain. As mentioned above, the problem of whether the Yellow River will be changed or not...
Qin Hui is particularly annoyed by people like this. He has to set up a archway after becoming a ****. Do you think that any good thing falls on you alone? Go to die! I will sooner or later keep this quarrel prime minister!
Qin Hui is finally about to take action! This is the most powerful minister in Chinese history, who manipulated the country for the longest time, controlled the emperor the most successfully, changed the historical process and even the national character, finally began his path of sin! There are two people who are stepping on Qin Hui's dream wings, one is the imperial prime minister Zhao Ding, and the other is the emperor Zhao Gou.
Chapter completed!
