It is rumored that there is a Bao Qingtian in Kaifeng, which cuts the sun off the sun and the yin off the night.

In fact, Bao Zheng didn't serve as the prefect of Kaifeng for a long time, but he only did two things. The first thing was that the capital had a larger population at that time. In order to expand the homes of the mansion, many powerful people occupied four canals in the capital, which led to the arrival of the summer and autumn flood season, and the water could not be leaked, and there was more waterlogging in the city. So Bao Zheng led the yamen runners to work as a demolition team. The second thing was to remove the outer wall of the Kaifeng yamen and publicly examine the case to show justice.

Maybe he is not afraid of the powerful.

But it does not mean that he is the best person in the Song Dynasty who tried cases for a long time.

If it is truly compared with Bao Qingtian in the legendary later generations, there are two people at this time.

One is Zhao Kuangyi!

He has been in Kaifeng Prefecture for many years and has accumulated a lot of experience in case-breaking. Therefore, after becoming emperor, he continued to resolve many cases, and did it fairly, and he also favored the vulnerable group, not Qi people, but everyone is equal to everyone, but in Zhao Kuangyi's hands, if the powerful and the poor have conflicts with the poor, he must be favored to the poor.

There is another person, Xiao Yanyan!

Yan Yan is the name Xiao Chuo. His father Xiao Siwen was a confidant of Emperor Muzong of Liao. When Emperor Muzong of Liao was assassinated, Xiao Siwen made a big political speculation. While blocking the news, he informed Yelu Xian overnight. Yelu Xian rushed to Heishan with a thousand iron armor, so he became the emperor. In order to thank Xiao Siwen, he summoned his daughter Xiao Chuo into the palace. At this time, Xiao Chuo was only fifteen or sixteen years old and was soon granted the imperial concubine. He became the queen after only five months.

However, this famous wise ruler in the history of the Liao Kingdom was very weak and could not even ride a horse saddle. Therefore, Xiao Chuo gradually handled some military and national affairs for Yelu Xian. However, in the second year, her father was assassinated. However, his father's death did not scare Xiao Yanyan, but instead realized the cruelty of political struggles. He quickly matured politically. Therefore, Yelu Xian relied more on Xiao Yanyan.

Her history is quite familiar, very similar to Wu Zetian's ascendance to the throne.

But if you ask yourself, putting aside Wu Zetian was the only female emperor of the Han people, it was too far behind Xiao Yanyan.

As for why she believed in Han Derang, it was really hard to say. Before becoming a confidant of Liao Muzong, Xiao Siwen had always been the important task of staying in Nanjing. The Han family had an important position in Khitan and Youzhou, Nanjing, and the two families would inevitably interact with each other. The two knew each other since childhood. As for whether they would have a childhood sweetheart love, only they knew it in their hearts.

The friendship between the two families, the acquaintance between them, Han Delang's outstanding performance in the defense of Youzhou, and his talents, are the reasons why Xiao Yanyan reused Han Delang.

Because of his appreciation of Xiao Chuo's talents, a few years ago, Emperor Jingzong of Liao sent a letter to the scholars of the History Museum. Since then, all the words of the queen were recorded, "also known as "couplets" and "you"" and "written as a fixed pattern."

It was this order that made Xiao Yanyan take charge of the world after the death of Emperor Jingzong of Liao and gain a great righteousness.

Emperor Jingzong of Liao died. Xiao Yanyan blocked the news while blocking the news, especially worried about the Song Dynasty.

While boldly reforming and using Han Delang, the law stipulates that ethnic equality is equal to everyone. Zhao Pu called out the Qi people, but he has not shouted out the Qi people. Song Jiu did not shout any slogans, but he was promoting some Qi policies. However, Song Jiu's ideological consciousness came from more than a thousand years later. Compared with the two, it can be seen that Xiao Yanyan's political vision is foresight.

During the actual implementation process, she also strictly enforced that the prince had committed the law and was the same as the common people. She had executed the nobles who killed fugitive slaves, and formulated an appeal system, and sent special personnel to patrol various places. She cleaned up old unjust cases, cleared up grievances, and abolished the law of co-sustaining. Even if it was a rebellion, the uninformed family members would be exempted from punishment. At the same time, there were some humane measures, such as abolishing the practice of storing the corpse for three days, implementing the imperial examination system, and selecting talents equally. Even for a period of time, Nanjing and Yiping were in vain.

This is the real Bao Qingtian.

Think about the so-called "Punishment of the Scholars and Doctors" that appeared in the Song Dynasty later. Compared with Zhao Kuangyi, Xiao Yanyan, Yan Shu, Han Qi, Ouyang Xiu and others, it was easier for them to go home and take a shower and go to bed.

However, compared with Xiao Yanyan, Zhao Kuangyi has a more showy taste.

Some people say that the Song Dynasty was weak and Zhao Kuangyi was incompetent.

Maybe two northern expeditions were destroyed by Zhao Kuangyi and Cao Bin.

However, it cannot be said that the Song Dynasty army is incompetent. If we put aside the failure of the two northern expeditions, what will happen to the war between the two countries on the border?

Did the Song Dynasty have many troops?

The Song Dynasty had only about 300,000 soldiers, and the Liao Dynasty could mobilize troops as close as this number. The Song Dynasty could recruit civilians, archers, and everyone in the Liao Dynasty could recruit more troops.

The Song Dynasty did not have an advantage in quantity.

But looking at the types of troops, more than 90% of the Song Dynasty were infantry, and the Liao Kingdom was just the opposite. If it was normal, it could be said that one cavalry could block five infantry. As a result, the combat effectiveness of the Song army exceeded Song Jiu's imagination.

It’s a pity that Zhao Kuangyi was very sad. He met Xiao Yanyan, Han Derang, Yelu Xiuge, Yelu Xizhen, and Li Jiqian.

But Xiao Yanyan is also making mistakes.

The proportion of the Song Dynasty cavalry accounted for not much, but it had a huge effect. Song Jiu saw this a long time later. Xiao Yanyan realized it very early that the two prefectures of Feng and Feng were forced to offer horses to the Song Dynasty the year before last, and sent troops to Fengzhou to capture some people's intimidation. Even three large armies went south, and all the way was to point to the prefectures. Once it did not work, and once it was a small setback.

This time, Xiao Yanyan was making a mistake again. She dared not attack the Song Dynasty again. It was cold in Liaodong and could only be resolved next year.

So he sent troops to Fengzhou.

The reason for this is that, one is that Fengzhou produces horses, and the other is that the father of Fengzhou leader Wang Chengmei surrendered to the Khitan. In the second year of Kaibao, he saw that the Song Dynasty was powerful, so he abandoned Liao and surrendered to Song.

This time it was a serious mistake. There was Wang Chengmei in Fengzhou, and there was also an equally awesome woman. Zhe Er...

...

The Song Dynasty sent two officials to Xiazhou.

The first one was Yin Xian, who was an old minister of Zhao Kuangyi's vassal residence, but this person was also very capable. Zhao Kuangyi ascended the throne and attached importance to the northwest, and asked Yin Xian to be the envoy of the Baoan Army of Yanzhou. When attacking the Northern Han Dynasty, the Tuoba Li family sent troops, but that was the case. The Zhe family of the Prefecture and Prefecture was the real one. Because Yin Xian stayed in the northwest for a while, he asked him to protect the Prefecture and Prefecture, and attack Lanzhou with the three tribes of Fuzhou, defeated more than a thousand enemies, captured Ma Yanzhong, the governor of Lanzhou, and spread the forts of the river. Zhao Kuangyi attacked Youzhou. In order to respond to Zhao Kuangyi, he alone entered the boundary of Shuozhou, defeated Ningwu Army, killed his army envoys, and captured countless men, horses and armor. He also changed to Xiazhou soldiers. Killed Chou Nuzhuang, Jijialuo Niye's fourteen tribes, and lured him Qu Zheng.

Familiar with the Northwest, outstanding military achievements, and also has a deterrent effect.

He is undoubtedly the best candidate in Zhixiazhou.

At the same time, a general was sent to station troops, Cao Guangshi, the general of Yazhou, Sichuan who offered a map to Wang Quanbin to avenge him.

This person should not be underestimated.

After Bashu was pacified, Cao Guangshi went to Beijing to recuperate his post, saying that the territory was initially decided and asked the village army he had originally summoned to be sent home to farm. Zhao Kuangyin admired it very much, and asked about his achievements and praised him as a hero in Shu.

After Cao Guangshi returned, he traded horses with the foreigners on the west side with the tea produced in his hometown of Baizhang. Song Jiu said that he used both kindness and power many times, but if he was soft, he would be bullied. However, if he was hard, he would not be able to do so. It was this tea-horse transaction, coupled with the military power of the Song Dynasty, that the surrounding foreign tribes came to join him one after another. The court seemed to have not gained benefits. However, it was better to not join him. At least if he was attached, he would not invade and rob.

Zhao Kuangyi was pacified by Hedong, and Cao Guangshi asked to lead a brigade to climb the top first. Zhao Kuangyi was responsible for the heavy capital and food, and was also sufficient for Xuanli, so he asked him to continue to cooperate with the logistics work of Song Jiu. Hedong was pacified and ordered to be the inspector of the four prefectures of Fen Liao and Shiqin. During the Yanmen victory, Cao Guangshi also made great contributions.

So this time, Zhao Kuangyi made Cao Guangshi the inspector of Fengyou Qizhou, Yinxia Suilin Prefecture, and followed Yin Xian to Xiazhou.

This person is even a general with both civil and military skills. He is very good at ethnic affairs.

It can be said that Zhao Kuangyi definitely made no mistakes in employing the person this time.

The inspector of the Qizhou Metropolitan City was even more wise. With this position, if Xiazhou changes and lacks military strength, Cao Guangshi can draw troops from Qizhou and suppress the rebellion with the force of Mount Tai.

Moreover, these two people are not evil with Song Jiu.

First of all, Yin Xian.

Speaking of Yin Xian, it was Song Jiu's contribution to Zhao Kuangyi. At that time, Zhao Kuangyi supported Song Jiu and obtained a lot of wealth. These wealth gave important help to Zhao Kuangyi. But no one paid attention. This was a lucky return for Zhao Kuangyi's investment. If it was not distributed to Zhao Kuangyi, it would have to be distributed to others. What contribution could Song Jiu have?

However, Yuping secretly took out several money and silk, supporting Zhao Kuangyi. This light and darkness allowed Zhao Kuangyi to survive the most difficult time.

Furthermore, in Zhuozhou City, Song Jiu'an's generals did not allow everyone to support Zhao Dezhao to the throne. In addition, Yang Ye was sent to rescue Zhao Kuangyi.

But if Song Jiu sold this merit, Zhao Kuangyi would definitely not be happy. For example, Kou Zhun, under the city of Chanzhou, Kou Zhun made great contributions.

However, his unique personality is so arrogant that he returns to the capital to sell this credit every day. What did Emperor Zhenzong of Song think?

In fact, on the eve of the Battle of Chanzhou, Emperor Zhenzong of Song was also a war-holding faction! When King Kou Zhun dared to kidnap Emperor Zhenzong of Song to the front line, Emperor Zhenzong of Song was very weak at this time. He played with the kings since he was a child, liked to fight in battle formations, and called himself "marshal", which was once praised by Zhao Kuangyin.

Moreover, the best internal governance of the Song Dynasty, the Xianping rule, appeared under his rule of the Song Dynasty. Another thing is that Zhao Kuangyi had only about four million households in history. By the time of Emperor Zhenzong of Song, nearly nine million, and in more than twenty years, it was more than doubled. Song Renzong's eternal benevolent monarch, which increased the population by more than three million households in more than 40 years.

Later, when he worshipped the gods, partly because he had a serious mental illness, not a mental illness, but a nerve problem, wind disease. According to research, it was a serious illness such as cerebral blood test and cerebral hemorrhage. Song Shenzong was also the same. He was defeated in the west and was stimulated and died young. Song Zhenzong could not think of it. In ancient times, he had to ask for the gods, but the other intention of asking for the gods was also to cover up the alliance under the city of Chanyuan. However, Kou Zhun was selling it every day, and even the historian thought that it was forced to push the brigade Song Zhenzong to the front line. What did Song Zhenzong think?

But Song Jiu was different. Without him, Zhao Kuangyi also became the emperor in history and returned safely in Youzhou, so he had no idea of ​​making contributions at all. This made Zhao Kuangyi very happy.

What Zhao Kuangyi needs most now is Zhao Pu, but he deliberately protects Song Jiu. At most, when Song Jiu does "excessively", he scolds him because of this.

As an old minister of Zhao Kuangyi's vassal residence, they were both prosperous and humiliated. And they could also know some inside stories.

Many people have taken office and have their own ulterior motives, but there are still many old ministers of Zhao Kuangyi's vassal residence who have a good impression of Song Jiu because of this relationship, including Yin Xian.

As for Cao Guangshi, he admired Song Jiu's approach in Bashu. Later, when he conquered Hedong, the two of them cooperated, at least not the enemy.

The two arrived in Xiazhou. Although Li Jiqian fled, they carried out Song Jiu's orders well.

So he obtained accurate information and immediately sent the information to the capital.

When Song Jiu opened it, he saw two things on it, including the alliance between the Dijinze clans, and Li Jiqian married the daughter of the most famous tyrant leader of the Ye clan. And because the two attached great importance to it, the scouts inquired it carefully. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Yeli clans were the third one. Later, they gradually fell and became two places, one in Lingzhou and the other in Hengshan. The Hengshan clan was not as many as the Lingzhou clans, but living in the mountainous areas, the people were braver.
