On the 14th, Bi Shi'an, the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty who stayed in the capital due to illness, heard the news of the alliance between Chanyuan and wrote a letter to Kou Zhun, "The plan has been decided, only the king will encourage him." Someone was discussing whether 300,000 taels were too much. The old prime minister smiled and said, "Peace discussions will be made, both sides will definitely reconcile, and what was the agreement just now! Although Empress Xiao is old, Emperor Liao is still young. If not, how can we ensure long-term peace?"

On the 15th, Changzhou started. On the 19th, the scenery returned to Beijing.

On the 25th, Zhao Heng issued an edict to change all the place names with "Rong" and "Lu" on the border to release the sincerity of the Great Song Dynasty...

On the 26th, the hero Wang Qinruo was ordered to return to the court from Daming Mansion. On the 29th, the emperor issued an edict for guilt because he saw the wasteland of Hebei.

The Liao army also worked in December and returned to Youzhou City on January 9 of the following year. The most prominent ones were two Han people: one was the unsupported first hero of the Chanyuan Alliance: Wang Jizhong gave the name Yelu Xianzhong. The other was the behind-the-scenes hero of the Chanyuan Alliance: Prime Minister Han Dechang gave the surname Yelu and was transferred to King Jin. In November 2005, he allowed him to form the Oluduo Palace Treasure that only the emperor had the right to set up (the history of Liao Dynasty has more than 200 years, and this Oluduo has a total of

Only 13 have been created: 9 emperors, Empress Dowager Yingtian Shuluping, Empress Dowager Chengtian Xiao Chuo, Crown Prince Yelu Longqing of Liao Shengzong, and the last one was Han Derang, a Han Dynasty man, and gave him another name. After all these, the Great Khitan Emperor gave him another honor: he was given an iron coupon for alchemy books, written by Emperor Liao Shengzong himself, fasted and burned incense, summoned all the court officials of the Han Han Dynasty, read them in public under the Big Dipper, and vowed to never let Han Derang down!

Generally speaking, Han Delang should faint on the spot and choose to commit suicide after waking up, so as not to die even worse in the future! As a Han Chinese, he was familiar with the classics of Han and Liao countries. Such power and favors were equivalent to a slaughter of Xueliang in any dynasty. 100% means that Han Delang and his whole family and all clans would move their heads soon, without exception. Even if you and the Queen Mother or more queens, the princess would be in no way helpful! But Han Delang refused and accepted everything, and made the whole world know that he was raised to such an unprecedented level. He also had to make many speculations about his relationship with Empress Dowager Xiao...

On January 5, 1005, Wang Qinruo returned to the court. On the 6th, the Song Dynasty court reappointed the garrisons of Hebei and more than 290 people were abolished. Wang Chao, the leader of the Dingzhou formation, submitted a petition. On the 19th, he was demoted to the governor of Chongxin and dismissed from his military position.

On February 5, the famous general of the Song Dynasty, Li Jilong, died. The Chanyuan Alliance is like a watershed, and many heroes are like being born for him. Once it is confirmed, these people will disappear and all disappear in the long river of history: in 1005, Li Jilong, Lei Youzhong, Zhang Ning, Bi Shi'an... died one after another; in 1006, Wang Jiying and Gao Qiong... died one after another. There is even him: Kou Zhun! Kou Xiang seemed to be born specifically for the moment of Chanyuan. After that, Kou Xiang would become a mediocre person and a vulgar person who loves power...

On the 8th, the Khitan set up the first scene in the Zhenwu Army.

On the 15th, Sun Chan and Kang Zongyuan of the Song Dynasty were appointed as the birthday envoys of Empress Dowager Xiao. The first group of Liao groups received warm welcome from the Liao Empire, the Empress Dowager, and the ordinary Khitan people in the Liao Kingdom...

On March 6, the imperial examination system of the Song Dynasty was won by Li Di and 1,001 people this time, which is a grand event that has never been seen since ancient times!

On the 29th, in response to the Song Dynasty's move to change the place name, the Great Khitan also changed the Yizhou Feihu Road recruitment envoy to the pacification envoy to release the sincerity of the Great Khitan...

In April, Chief Kou Zhun's old enemy, Wang Qinruo, who came back from Daming Mansion, resigned voluntarily. He would rather not be the assistant to the political affairs than work in the same office as Kou Zhun! However, the emperor was nostalgic. On the 26th, Wang Aiqing, I specially invented you an official title "Bachelor of the Government of the Government" for you, go to work.

Speaking of the Song Dynasty, there were many prodigy, and Fang Zhongyong was one of them later, but he was just a negative example. There were more positive examples, such as Yang Yi (11 years old and Jinshi, who was drunk in the dark and dark place in Chengtou of Chanzhou and Kou Zhun (11 years old and the first person in ancient and modern times) and Yan Shu (14 years old and Jiang Gai (12 years old)

On the 13th, two people went to the palace to take the emperor's examination at the same time. Yan Shu wanted to write one poem and Jiang Gai wrote six poems. As a result, Yan Shu was quick-witted and completed it quickly, and both poems and essays were excellent. Zhao Heng admired it very much and immediately wanted to be appointed as an official. But Kou Zhun came out and said with a straight face, "Your Majesty, just be appointed as an official, Jiang Gai."

"Ah? Why?" The emperor was a little stunned.

Kou Zhun's expression was even more strange, as if he heard a big fallacy against the world and the world, anti-ancestors. "Is this still necessary to explain it? Jiang Gai is from Daming Mansion, and Yan Shu is from Jiangnan." This is the rule! In the Northern Song Dynasty, people south of the Yangtze River would not use it if they could, and they should not use it if they could. It would not be very useful if they could. The important quotes of His Majesty Taizu were posted on the office chair of the Prime Minister of the East Prefecture - southerners should not sit in this position!

So at this time Kou Zhun was rightful and probably glanced at Wang Qinruo, who was angry next to him but could only swallow his anger: What? Lao Wang, Jiangnan people cannot be used... And you are an authentic Jiangnan Jinling people, Li Yu's fellow villager.

Just as things were about to be decided, Wang Qinruo and Yan Shu's life was about to end. However, Zhao Heng suddenly smiled, "What's wrong with Jiangnan people? Zhang Jiuling of the Tang Dynasty was also a Jiangnan people, and wasn't he also a famous prime minister."

In June, the Khitan was finally settled and Li Jiqian was defeated in advance. Zhao Heng finally let the Privy Councilor Wang Jiying be responsible for facing the palace, guards and the imperial guards eliminate the old and weak, and select elite soldiers.

On September 8, Li Deming sent an envoy Bai Wenshou to pay tribute.

On the 22nd, the emperor ordered Wang Qinruo and Yang Yi to edit the last of the four major books in the Northern Song Dynasty - the historical book "The Deeds of Emperors and Ministers of the Past Dynasties"

On October 5, the three officials named Ding Wei offered 5 volumes of "Jingde Farmland Imperial". He was the most powerful minister in this era. No matter Wang Qinruo, Kou Zhun, or even Zhao Heng, they were played by him. They all turned over and were in a mess, and they had no chance to make a comeback. His deeds could be confronted with the great events of the world such as Taizu's Zhou, Jinghu, military power, Khitan, war, Xixia, and other things. In the "Chief of the Song Dynasty", "Ding is called traitor"... Of course, this is all a later story. However, there is a sentence about him in the quotes of the Holy Priest... Perhaps only Li Heng can deal with him, but it is only the first step to guard against him: never be promoted to his official position! If he is allowed to take office, history proves that he swept everything...

On the 10th, the old prime minister Bi Shi'an, the pillar of the Song Dynasty, passed away.

On the 11th, Zhou Jian was appointed as the birthday envoy of the Liao lord, the birthday envoy of the Queen Mother Xiao in South Korea, and Zhang Ruogu was appointed as the Zhengdan envoy. On the 28th, the first batch of silver coins and 200,000 taels of silk were paid to the Great Khitan. It was considered common for the year...

On November 29, Yelu Liuning, a Khitan, and Yelu commissioned the Song Dynasty to congratulate Chengtian Festival.

In December, it was issued an edict to receive half of the on-the-job salary for retired officials. In the system before the Tang Dynasty, unless officials who enjoy special allowances had no retirement salary... From this point of view, officials in the Song Dynasty were really happy!

One morning at the end of the year, the emperor suddenly discovered that Wang Aiqing, the intimate scholar of the Zizheng Hall, was standing behind Li Zongyan, a Hanlin scholar? It turned out that Prime Minister Kou was making fun of Wang Qinruo! He used his power to lower the title of Bachelor of the Zizheng Hall to the Hanlin Bachelor, making former deputy prime minister Wang Qinruo not even as top scorer as the first prize he had just passed the exam... This was really unkind. From the beginning to the end of the Song Dynasty, he had never abused the prime minister so much.

The emperor couldn't see it, so he added the word "big" to Wang Aiqing's official title, and turned it into "Master of the Zizheng Hall". Then the emperor smiled and asked, "Great 'Scholar', you're satisfied with being this official." Kou Zhun was very dissatisfied, so he spread all the evil fire to the person who was the highest-level and most sacred and inviolable among the Han people at that time - Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng!

Kou Zhun striding in front of the emperor, arrogant and arrogant. I am a hero. I want treatment, not just salary, but I also have to respect! Zhao Heng satisfied him, just like he treated Lu Duan back then. Lu Duan directly helped Zhao Heng ascend the throne, but if Kou Zhun helped him get the title of crown prince before, what would Zhao Heng do to do? In addition to the just-passed Chanyuan Alliance, Kou Zhun far exceeded Lu Duan's contribution to Zhao Heng. So he became even more righteous, just like reminding the emperor of his memory, he would say to Zhao Heng from time to time in public, "Your Majesty, don't forget. Without me, can you return to Kaifeng to be this Taiping Emperor?"

This sentence is very similar to the words that Cao Cao conquered Yuan Shao during the Three Kingdoms period. Before entering the city, Xu You smiled and said, "Ah, you can't have me, you can't have Jizhou..." Then a few days later, he was chopped off by Cao Cao's beloved general Xu Chu...

But what about Kou Zhun? He could even be late and leave early in the court meeting between the emperor and the prime ministers. And when he left alone early, the emperor actually watched him watch and was in awe of him.

All of this was seen by Wang Qinruo. Everything has two sides, but only a very smart person can observe the subtle and obscure side - the strongest point is the weakest point. But you must be able to discover it!

Wang Qinruo discovered it. Just as Kou Zhun walked out of the Golden Palace with a swagger and striding at the peak of his life under the eyes of the emperor, his tragedy was planted...

On this day, Wang Qinruo asked softly, "Your Majesty, is it because you respect Kou Zhun so much because he has made great contributions to the country?"

"Of course" Zhao Heng was a little surprised. This is something that the whole Song Dynasty knew.

"Your Majesty was not ashamed of the battle of Chanyuan, but instead thought Kou Zhun had great achievements. This... where did you start?" Wang Qinruo expressed his worries.

"Why" Zhao Heng was a little nervous habitually.

"Your Majesty, think about it carefully. The alliance is not on the border of the Song and Liao dynasties, but in Chanzhou, the hinterland of our Song Dynasty. And you are in the city and the Liao army is under the city... This is the most typical and shameful 'All under the city' in the Spring and Autumn Period... It is an unyielding surrender."

With a loud bang, Zhao Heng's world collapsed. All honor and pride turned into complete shame at this moment. I thought everyone was praising him, but I didn't expect that he had been nailed to the pillar of shame. Especially his most proud 300,000 2-year-old monies became the "evidence" of his surrender.

A great shame... Zhao Heng felt dizzy for a moment. How can he save his face? At this moment, Wang Qinruo said again, "Your Majesty, do you know gambling? When the bet is about to lose all, the gambler often puts all his money into a 'shoulder' and you are under the city of Chanzhou, Kou Zhun's bet! He forces you to go to the front line again and again... This is the mentality of the gambler."

"Enough" Zhao Heng is unwilling to listen to the eight words "All the City" and "All bets" completely overturn Kou Zhun's image and greatest contribution in the emperor's heart. Don't mention Kou Zhun and the Chanyuan Alliance, I must calm down...

I wonder if Zhao Heng, who had calmed down, had gone through history books and read carefully. Perhaps the history in the future would not be like that again. Because the real "city alliance" in history is not a humiliation, but a "covenant" that only those who are dignified deserve.

Open "Records of the Grand Historian. The Family of Song" In 594 BC, the Chu army surrounded the capital of Song for 5 months. The weak Song State was indeed unable to support it. But they had other ideas about surrender. The Prime Minister of Song State Hua Yuan went down the city at night, sneaked into the military camp of Chu State, and kept touching the big tent of the Chu State marshal Zi Yuan, and forced Zi Yuan with a dagger. "We have started to eat human flesh and burn human bones to live. It is indeed unsupported. But we would rather die in battle than surrender! Do we have to sign an alliance? Now the Chu army must withdraw its troops and return the Song State to dignity! Then we can sign an alliance with Chu State." King Zhuang of Chu lamented, "An honest gentleman! Our army has only 2 days of food and grass." So the Chu army withdrew, and then the two countries formed an alliance. This is the truth of the "All under the city"! How could Song State be humiliated?
