    (The generosity of the Alliance is always so exciting; the votes of brothers are also quite powerful.)

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    The first thing Zhao Gou did after his restoration was to hold a national funeral for the three late emperors, and give them temple names and posthumous titles to declare his legitimacy to the world.

    The temple name of Taishang Zhao Ji was Huizong. It was taken from Erya.  As a son of man, he is covering up his faults for Lao Tzu, which is the intended meaning of the title, and there is no blame for it.  But the posthumous title, which is as long as a foot-wrapping cloth, is even more disgusting: "The body and spirit are in harmony with the Tao, the Jun, the martyr, the meritorious, the holy, the literary, the benevolent, the constitutional, the compassionate, the filial emperor." - I really didn't know that such a bunch of words full of praise, the etiquette of the Southern Song Dynasty  How did the officials come up with it.

    The temple name of Yuansheng Zhao Huan is Qinzong, which means respect and solemnity, but his posthumous title is much shorter. He is called "Emperor Gongwen, Shunde, Benevolence and Filial Piety". Well, he can't be older than Lao Tzu.

    Perhaps Zhao Gou was resentful of his eldest brother, who squatted in a manhole and refused to poop, which prevented him from legally proclaiming himself emperor, so he took a fancy to his temple name: "Qin", which when taken apart means "Owed"  The word "gold".  Judging from Zhao Huan's comprehensive performance after he ascended the throne and was captured, everything he did was conducive to the conquest and rule of the Jin people.  As the emperor of the Song Dynasty, regardless of whether he was in office or not, the foreign policies he considered and issued were all foolish moves that dug his own grave.  In the end, he was destroyed by his powerful neighbor. If his IQ was not too low, he might have owed a huge favor to the Jin man in his previous life.

    The temple name of Emperor Xingyuan was Gongzong, which meant that things would go smoothly, and the number of characters in his posthumous title was shorter, "To respect and respect the emperor in the most filial way".  In the Song Dynasty, all emperors governed the world with filial piety.  Without exception, the word "filial piety" must be added to the posthumous title.  As for filial piety or not.  Only God knows!

    After this important event was completed, the official explanation for the mutiny followed:

    "Today there is Li Ni, named Qiong, who is favored and arrogant. He has evil intentions and is crazy. He wants to imitate Miao and Liu Niju. He goes against the grain and forces the emperor with a sword. The emperor does not follow thieves. He scolds with his halberd finger. Li Ni is ashamed and angry, and kills by mistake.  Fortunately, King Kang led his heavenly troops to a sudden appearance, suppressed the rebellion, and saved the Song Dynasty from imminent collapse" What follows is a long list of praiseworthy words, and there is no need to elaborate.

    According to the words in the edict, Li Qiong wanted to imitate Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan three years ago and kidnap Gongzong.  Control the government.  As a result, he was sternly rejected by Gongzong Yizheng and severely reprimanded.  Li Qiong became angry and accidentally killed the king Then, King Kang, who was wise and martial and had an insight into the enemy's traitors, came back, put down the rebellion and captured Li Qiong alive - that's the official explanation.  You know.

    The edict is said to be an edict to the world, but in fact it is mainly to tell all the officials explicitly; if the officials believe it, the scholars will believe it tacitly; if the scholars believe it, the people will have to believe it.

    In short, this is what the officials said.  All the officials and scholars "believe" it, but as for the common peopleit doesn't matter whether you believe it or not.  Anyway, I believed it.

    ??A country cannot live without a king for a day. Gongzong was buried in heaven, and a prince was not born yet. The emperor's younger brother, King Kang, took over the throne. It was logical, logical, and in line with the ancestral system.  Not to mention, this King Kang was originally the previous Emperor Jianyan, and Gongzong still succeeded him

    The new emperor came to the throne and changed the Yuan Dynasty to Shaoxing, which is exactly the same as history.

    According to common practice, he ascended the throne and changed the Yuan Dynasty, and granted amnesty to the world.

    Basically, with a pardon, exile, relocation, and relegation, including all non-death penalty crimes, can be pardoned - but crimes of treason will never be included.

    The crime committed by Li Qiong is the treasonous crime of "regicide". Not only cannot he be pardoned, but he must also be executed as soon as possible to show that the dignity of the royal family cannot be violated.

    On May 17th, Li Qiong was taken to the downtown area of ??Lin'an, where he was beaten and abandoned.

    Some scholars watched the scene of Li Qiong being tortured and recorded in their notes: "Li Ni didn't say a word, the executioner's hand rose and fell with the blade, all flesh and blood were exposed, and the muscles and bones were torn apartThe blood flowed like a stream, and the wails were cruel.  At noon, you will be united, and it will end only when night falls"

    In the history of another time and space, Li Qiong was the initiator of the defection of the largest military group in the Southern Song Dynasty. He committed an unforgivable crime against both the Song Dynasty and the Han people, and even betrayed his original ambition to join the army.  It was well deserved to end up like this.

    "The Li family should have been implicated, but during the general amnesty, many of them were released.  Moreover, the officials were merciful, and some serious crimes were punished lightly, or some minor crimes were not investigated, so the Li family was finally saved.

    The Li family, inscribed with the Five Elements, burns incense and prays to express gratitude for your kindness.  But they don't know the dirty political transactions involved.

    The so-called emperor and his courtiers have never changed.  Generally, before the emperor ascends the throne, he must endure for a period of time and slowly cultivate his cronies. When his wings are full, he will gradually eliminate the dissidents in the court one by one. This has almost become a rule.

    However, Zhao Gou, the new emperor, is different. He is a restoration, not a new emperor who has ascended the throne. He has already had strong strength in the court.  He has the confidence to eliminate the foreign forces in the DPRK in one fell swoop.

    There is no doubt that the person who performed the surgery first was Left Prime Minister Lu Yihao.  Strictly speaking, Lu ?Huo Hao was the prime minister promoted by Zhao Gou earlier and was considered a heavyweight in the Jianyan faction.  It's a pity that because he is the left prime minister and the head of the hundred officials, after Zhao Gou disappeared, the burden of choosing the next emperor fell on him, and he could not be avoided, which led to his tragic end.

    On May 19th, the day after Li Qiongfu was executed, the imperial court issued an order to remove Lu Yihao from the post of Zuopushe and Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi, demote them to common people, and leave the capital within a limited time.  Another half month later, when Lu Yihao was moving his family south (L¨¹ Yihao's ancestral home was Cangzhou, Shandong Province, which was now under Tianshu's influence and could not return to his hometown), another imperial cavalry from the palace caught up with him and read out the imperial edict, but he was killed.  Exiled to Qiongzhou (now Haikou, Hainan).

    Lu Yihao looked up to the sky and lamented, his family wailed and mourned, and a generation of powerful officials fell.

    After taking away the big head, the next step is Zhu Shengfei, the Right Prime Minister.  At this time, Zhu Shengfei's mother passed away (Zhu's mother did die in 1132). The right-hand man immediately made a decisive decision and immediately asked himself to leave his post to observe his filial piety.  Zhao Gou just wanted to remove these stumbling blocks, but he had no intention of killing them all. When he saw that the other party was taking the road, he naturally followed the trend and dismissed him from the post of right minister.

    ??Further down, we have Zhao Jian and Zhao Gong.  It is even easier to deal with such people who have little talent and shallow foundation.  Resigning from one's post or reducing one's rank is nothing more than a matter of handwriting.  If they were not both kin, they would have to move three thousand miles away.  Like Lu Yihao, go to hell¡ªno.  Lots of places where birds poop.

    Zhao Gou came back to power, used thunderous means, and swept away a large number of people like a whirlwind. There was only one person who could not and did not dare to move - Zhao Shibao, the chief minister of Panzong Temple and the king of Qi'an County.

    This senior position is a benchmark for the royal family of Zhao and Song Dynasties, and is currently used throughout the Southern Song Dynasty.  The only person who could suppress him in terms of seniority was the Queen Mother Longyou.  But just like how Zhao Gou couldn't stop Empress Dowager Longyou (Empress Dowager Longyou was the initiator of Zhao Xu's rise to power), he also couldn't touch Zhao Shibao - the prince couldn't touch it because it was conferred by the Supreme Emperor; neither could the chief minister of Panzong Temple.  Move because no one can replace you.  Unless King Lao Su comes back, he may still be able to compete.  but.  King Lao Su has already returned to Chang'an with his good son-in-law to reunite with his daughter. He is afraid that he will never cross the river again and come to this "broken ship" in the Southern Song Dynasty to join in the fun.

    Those who are demoted will naturally be promoted.  First, Zhao Ding, a staunch supporter of the faction, became the left prime minister, Zhang Jun was appointed to the Privy Council, and Zhang Jun, who served as the leader of the dragon.  With his meritorious service, he led the Jiedushi of Zhentao, Chongxin and Fengning Army towns and the three divisions of Kaifu Yitong, becoming the second Southern Song general after Liu Guangshi to establish a festival; Yang Yizhong was awarded the title of Baocheng Jiedu  The envoys and palace guards were all in charge of Yu, and they were also in charge of the guards, horse and infantry divisions, and were in charge of the personal guards of the three yamen. Yang Mi was also promoted to deputy commander of the imperial right army.

    It can be said.  The civil and military ministers who bet on the right treasure and stood in the right team all made a lot of money.  Regarding Liu Guangshi's secret assistance that day.  Zhao Gou also understood it. Although he was not granted a title, he was definitely rewarded.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  At this time, the courtiers were discussing and guessing who belonged to this position.  At the end of May, Concubine Wei, Concubine Xing, Qin Hui and their entourage helped the Taishang Dragon's coffin to cross the river, and the civil and military officials of the court came out to welcome it.  At this time, all the officials suddenly realized that during this period of turmoil in the DPRK situation, which made people panic, how could they forget this person.

    As expected, on the day of Qin Hui's return, he was immediately appointed as the right minister, two years earlier than in history.  What would such a person bring to the Southern Song Dynasty?

    What Qin Hui brought back was a copy of Tianshu's renewed alliance with the Southern Song Dynasty.  This is the "gift" that Zhao Gou has been looking forward to day and night, and it is also his biggest wish for this adventure going north.  Now that it has been achieved, I am really overjoyed. I repeatedly praised, "I have won another good scholar."

    Of course, Tianshu's gift is not given in vain, let alone returning it to your parents, wife and daughter How big a favor is this?  Why don't you think about it?  So, what is the ¡°meaning¡± that Tianshu wants?

    Chengdu Mansion!

    The autonomy of Chengdu Prefecture is the condition of King Hua.

    According to what Qin Hui said, before returning home, he was summoned by King Hua and explicitly issued an order to Qin Fengjun's deputy commander Liu Xi to mobilize the army to attack Chengdu.  Chengdu Prefecture, you must govern yourself even if you agree, and you must govern yourself even if you disagree.

    The matter has come to this, what can I do?  Chengdu Prefecture was an important logistics base of the Southern Song Dynasty. The Southern Song Dynasty had a lot of food and military supplies in Chengdu Prefecture, but they did not have any decent troops that could be used. How could they stop the Qin Feng Army, which was known as the strongest Western Army in the Song Dynasty in the past.

    Zhao Gou gritted his teeth and exchanged Chengdu Mansion for his parents, wife and children, as well as the legitimacy of his throne, plus a peace covenant - worth it!

    With the slightest click of Zhao Gouzhu's imperial approval, the mountains of military resources raised in Sichuan by the Southern Song Dynasty were included in Tianshu's bag, together with the "Land of Abundance" in Bashan and Shushui.  Di Lie once again bit off a large piece of fat from this "fat sheep" in the Southern Song Dynasty, and his mouth was full of oil.

    In June, the supervisory censor Wan Qixi, adhering to theQin Hui suddenly dropped a bombshell during the court meeting: "Recently, I have heard a lot about Tianshu that Tianbo Navy frequently appears in the East China Sea, and even had friction with Yanguan's Tiger Wing Navy. When traveling near the river and the sea, once  If there is a change, I fear there will be something unbearable to say. For the sake of the safety of the Tian family and the safety of the Song Dynasty, I ask your Majesty to move the capital"

    As soon as this statement came out, the Manchu Dynasty was shocked. Moving the capital has been a top priority since ancient times. How could it not be shocking? However, after the shock, few civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty spoke out against it.  The reason is very simple. There is a ready-made example there - Emperor Shaoxing led five thousand soldiers in a surprise attack, abandoned the land and went to the sea, made a big circle, and after landing, he stormed the palace in just one night.  Of course, the flatterers can talk about it, saying that this is an official who is extremely powerful and uses troops like a god. However, now that the official is sitting in the palace, if someone else does this it should be noted that in this surprise attack, the reputation will be lost.  Suddenly, the Yuying Youjun, who has made outstanding achievements, was defeated by Tianbo Navy before!

    The officials all murmured in their hearts. Then they looked at the officials on Danqi who looked blank and had wandering eyes. They all felt enlightened and unanimously agreed to move the capital.  Different from previous dynasties with stable political situation, in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, the imperial court repeatedly moved its capital: Zhao Gou first proclaimed himself emperor in Yingtianfu, Nanjing (today's Shangqiu, Henan), and then moved his capital to Yangzhou; after the palace in Yangzhou was burned down by the Jin soldiers, he moved again to  Lin'an Prefecture, Hangzhou.  In the five years since the founding of the country, the capital has been moved three times, which is rare among previous dynasties.  This also caused the officials of the Southern Song Dynasty to be quite adaptable to such big moves as moving the capital. To put it bluntly, they were used to it and regarded it as another big move.

    On the surface, Wan Qixi followed Qin Hui's wishes and initiated the move of the capital. In fact, it was Qin Hui who followed Qin Hui's wishes and then selected a moderate censor to make the move. The effect was that  Surprisingly good.  It seems that the officials and ministers have all thought of going together. Lin'an Prefecture and Hangzhou City are really too unsafe Although Jiangnan has various conveniences, such as no need for water transportation, convenient sea trade, and the gathering of wealthy merchants.  Wait, but without security, everything is in vain.

    ? Okay, moving is no problem. The next question is - where to move?

    Regarding this, Wan Qixi is also confident: "South of Jinghu Lake, Changsha!"

    Changsha?  It¡¯s Changsha!

    As early as the third year of Jianyan, when Zhao Gou was driven across the Yangtze River by the Jin army and briefly settled in Jiankang Prefecture, he had discussed the issue of where to make his capital.  At that time, there was one opinion that we should go to Changsha; another opinion was that we should go to Wuchang. Finally, two ministers, one civil and one military, dissuaded us. Han Shizhong said: The country has lost Shandong and Hebei. If we abandon the Jianghuai River again, there will be no place left.  Minister Lu Yihao believed that the water town in western Zhejiang was good, and although the enemy's cavalry was numerous, they could not gallop.  This finally prompted Zhao Gouchi to decide to capital Lin'an.

    It¡¯s just that this time, that time.  The enemy they faced at the beginning was the Jin army. The water network across Jiangsu and Zhejiang could indeed cause the Jin people to suffer a lot. The battle of Huang Tiandang is proof of this.  But the current opponent is Tianshu. Their power on the water is only slightly stronger than their own. Although they have signed an alliance, how can war and peace between countries be restrained by a piece of paper?

    The proposal to move the capital was approved by the emperor and his ministers in just three days.

    In July, the Southern Song Dynasty began to move south.

    And as early as the beginning of April, thousands of miles away in northern Xinjiang, a huge migration team of nearly 100,000 people also gathered on the edge of the cold and windy Mohe River. Two tribal chiefs: Wanyan Sa  Under the leadership of Li He and Wu Ling Simou, they are about to embark on an unknown journey of life and death.

    Di Lie did not break his promise and gave the Jurchens a way to survive. He also gave the Jurchens two leaders, one civil and one military.  As for whether they can carve out a future in that vast and boundless land in the far west, it all depends on their own ability

    Di Lie sincerely hopes that the Jurchens can establish a foothold and establish a country in this unowned land of Siberia. Otherwise, how will he pick peaches in the future?

    Well, speaking of peaches, it seems that there is a peach named "Empire" that is already ripe
