    "Isn't this a little too much?" Yu Yunwen couldn't bear it.  Although Yu Yunwen graduated from the Military Academy and was a soldier of the Song Dynasty, he was still a scholar in essence.  Now when I see the emperor killing literati, killing some, exiled some, freeing some, and beating others, I feel that I can't bear it.  "In this purge, I don't know how many people were implicated and were wrongly accused!" Li Ruoshui said: "So what if there are unjust, false, and wrongful convictions? At this moment, who cares about unjust, false, and wrongly convicted cases? People are being killed unjustly every day in the world.  There are too many, and most of them have no place to express their grievances!¡± Yu Yunwen said: ¡°I don¡¯t know how much blood will be shed¡± ¡°Since ancient times, there has been no war without blood, either the enemy¡¯s blood, or one¡¯s own blood, or the enemy¡¯s.  Blood is better than losing your own blood!" Li Ruoshui said: "Since the founding of our country, there has been a struggle between the north and the south, and a civil and military struggle. This is nothing at first, but if we put the struggle between each other above the life and death of the country,  Just deserve to die!" There was murderous intent in his tone, and the scholar-bureaucrats had no good impression of the literati.  Yu Yunwen sighed quietly in his heart and stopped talking. "You will not live if you do something wrong!"  ¡­¡­¡­ Three days passed quickly.  For most people, three days just passed by in the blink of an eye, but for those arrested scholars, the suffering was so extreme that it felt like the days were like years.  At this moment, the scholar once again saw the horror of this emperor.  For three days, they were imprisoned like cattle and sheep, and then some generals scolded them, mainly scolding scholars for being ungrateful.  They forgot the people in the north and the two emperors.  Forgot the shame of Jingkang.  Many of these generals are acquaintances, former classmates and friends, fellow students, or relatives, and some of them are very close.  But at this moment, there was no trace of emotion at all.  These former friends are now wearing battle armor and looking murderous.  The intimacy of the past is no longer the same.  The Military Academy is like a feng shui ridge, turning former scholars and former friends into two classes.  In the eyes of the students of the Armed Forces Academy, these scholars are national traitors or "preparatory national traitors."  "We, the soldiers, have worked hard and fought hard. After a hundred battles, we have gained a little bit, and great achievements can be expected. However, you are deceived by traitors. You always think about making peace, and you always think that if you forget to fight, you will perish. Everywhere said  Why is the emperor so warlike today? " "The emperor has said that it is okay to withdraw from Youyun Sixteen States and return the two emperors to death. Only by agreeing to three terms can we forget the shame of Jingkang.  , Let¡¯s make peace with Jin Jun.¡± ¡°Scholars, you can be poor at studying, but you can¡¯t sit in the wrong position!¡± ¡°No one can save you. Only by writing a letter of repentance can you have a chance of survival!¡± A piece of paper was delivered!  In front of the arrested scholars, he was asked to write a letter of repentance and review his mistakes.  If you write a letter of repentance, there is still a glimmer of hope; if you are stubborn and refuse to repent, you will not mind killing with a knife.  The scholars present felt extremely miserable.  He was once the proud son of heaven and the favorite of the Song Dynasty, but now he was extremely aggrieved.  If I had known this, why did I have to be so careless in the first place, why did I have to talk nonsense, and now I have caused trouble.  In frustration, some scholars began to write "letters of repentance."  Of course, there are some scholars who fight to the death, but are labeled as collaborators and treason; there are also some scholars who are not convinced and commit suicide to become chaste, but are labeled as committing suicide out of fear of crime; and some scholars want to rely on connections to  Avoiding the letter of repentance will result in a third-level crime The cruel facts prove once again that you should not take yourself too seriously.  Without you, Taiyuan will still turn, and the earth will still turn.  In the Song Dynasty, scholars were very important, but without scholars, the Song Dynasty would not have perished.  Moreover, the number of scholars is huge and their hearts are mixed. It is almost impossible to get tens of millions of people to be of the same mind. It does not need to be completely defeated. It only needs to be divided and decomposed, a group of people will be beaten, a group of people will be recruited, a group of people will be killed, and a group of people will be transformed.  The seemingly united scholars will fall apart and become a piece of scattered sand.  Soon, several boxes of letters of repentance were delivered to the palace.  Opening the book box, Zhao Pu looked at the book of repentance and felt extremely satisfied.  Ten days later, the entire massive purge campaign came to an end for the time being.  Among the arrested people, about 500 people were executed for colluding with the Jin Army; 3,000 people were exiled to Taiwan Island for being led astray and seduced by Jin Army spies; and  More than a thousand people were acquitted.  Those who were killed were more or less colluding with the Jin Army, either selling intelligence, selling some materials to the Jin Army, or selling money to the Jin Army.Sincerity, there is clear evidence, and there is no way to survive at all.  There is no doubt that he will be killed, but not killing him will not make the people angry, and not killing him will not be enough to rectify people's hearts.  And those who were exiled were mainly those who wavered.  In the court, their fathers or uncles had proposed peace talks.  Those who were acquitted were mostly die-hard anti-gold activists.  There are many others who have been stripped of their fame.  And this purge, which seemed massive, was actually limited to one city in Hangzhou and lasted only ten days.  Some forces had no time to organize a counterattack, no time to think about countermeasures, and some came to a conclusion while they were still arguing, and the dust settled!  ¡°This is all coming to an end for the time being, not completely over, and the later impact is still expanding.  Then, the imperial court announced the establishment of a Propaganda Department to monitor public opinion and invest 2 million yuan a year to publicize the anti-golden war and crack down on surrender negotiations; Then, the brothels in the Jiangnan area began to rectify, prohibiting the singing of some prohibited songs, and only prescribed songs could be sung; Then  , the first national sports event of the Song Dynasty was held, mainly including 10,000-meter long-distance running, javelin running, rugby, etc.; Then, the Military Academy of the Song Dynasty was renamed the "National Defense University of the Song Dynasty". The campus was gorgeous, comparable to the palace, and the states and counties were outstanding.  Students were given priority; various vigorous activities began to transform the Song Dynasty and the entire scholar-bureaucrat class.  Looking back suddenly, some scholars were surprised to find that the Song Dynasty was undergoing drastic changes at a speed that was jaw-dropping.  In these battles, the gentry lost again and again. Whether they were willing or not, accepted or not, these gentry could only let the emperor devour their interests again and again.  The scholar is testing the emperor's bottom line; and Zhao Pu is also testing the scholar's bottom line.  Zhao Pu is also becoming more and more proficient in the application of power; Zhao Pu is also becoming more and more shrewd in the use of some hidden rules.  This is an era when imperial power is supreme, but there is no such thing as democracy.  Although the emperor of the Song Dynasty often said that the king and the scholar-bureaucrats jointly governed the world, they were just words. Anyone who took it seriously would be a fool.  In essence, it relied on scholar-bureaucrats to suppress military men, thereby achieving a balance of imperial power.  At this moment, Zhao Pu was using warriors to suppress the scholar-bureaucrats.  Facing Zhao Pu¡¯s suppression, the scholar-bureaucrats¡¯ counterattack was very weak.  The power of scholar-bureaucrats is very powerful, but their power is also very scattered. It is okay to seek some small benefits in normal times, but once a big event happens, they fall apart almost instantly.  This purge incident was essentially a suppression of scholar-bureaucrats.  But the counterattack of the scholar-bureaucrats was very weak, except for protest, that is, protest.  But without the support of righteousness, public opinion, military support, people's support, and financial support, the so-called protests are of no use at all.  Zhao Pu also came to a conclusion: As long as a king controls the army, finances, and public opinion, as long as he does not do things that anger people, and does not do things that betray his relatives, he is almost invincible.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ In Hangzhou, during the massive purge, Qin Hui was negotiating in Qingzhou City.  It¡¯s just that this negotiation was a torment for him.  And the representative of Jin Jun¡¯s negotiations is Wan Yanchang!  Once upon a time, Wan Yanchang led his troops to capture Shandong, and he was very powerful in his heyday. Later, he even reached Huaibei, and his horse traveled to the south of the Yangtze River.  However, with the reversal of the war, the battle situation changed drastically. The Jin army was everywhere on the battlefield, and even lost part of Shandong.  The former Qingzhou City once again fell into the hands of the Song Dynasty.  The location of the negotiation was also set in Qingzhou, Shandong.  "Qin Hui, long time no see!" Wan Yanchang smiled.  "Yes, things are unpredictable. Originally, when I returned to the south, I thought about peace between the Song and Jin Dynasties, and ruled by dividing the river, just like the Northern and Southern Dynasties. But the officials were stubborn, and it seemed impossible for the Jin Kingdom to divide the river and rule!" Qin Hui looked a little calm.  , but there was some fear in my heart.  After all, the "Book of Repentance" was in the hands of the Jin people. It was the Jin people's handle to restrict him, and he had to obey.  However, looking at the current situation, it seems impossible for Song and Jin to negotiate peace.  Qin Hui didn¡¯t think he could persuade Zhao Pu to stop his troops with his sharp tongue!
