    In the autumn of 1219 AD, Emperor Zhao Kuo of the Song Dynasty was assassinated in the palace at the age of fifty-two.  This was a great shock to the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty had been at peace for a long time. Although the country was weak, there were very few palace coups or assassinations of emperors. This was related to the Song Dynasty's concept of governing the country with Confucianism. Confucianism regarded imperial power as  There is no doubt that it is a gift from heaven. Relatively speaking, although Xixia and Jin are also promoting sinicization, they still maintain the wild surname of the grassland people and believe more in their own strength.  While tracking down the assassin, the ministers in the court and Empress Yang in the palace began to discuss the enthronement of the new emperor. The prince Zhao Yun was affected by the assassination of the previous emperor and was slightly injured. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured after being diagnosed and treated by the imperial physician.  Otherwise, another crown prince would have to be chosen. No one doubted that His Highness the Crown Prince was involved in the assassination. The palace servants around the emperor could testify that His Highness the Crown Prince was beaten away by the assassin.  Yang Kang is recuperating from his injuries in the East Palace. This injury was not caused by Qiu Qianren, but by himself. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why he was still intact after being knocked out. The injury is neither minor nor serious, and it will be enough to recover for a month and a half.  Yes, it won't delay the new emperor's coronation ceremony.  ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  The future Emperor of Song Dynasty thought with a little pride. Although he was recovering from his injuries, he was always paying attention to the news from the outside. It was better to be cautious at this critical moment. It would be bad if someone jumped in line. Shi Miyuan and Queen Yang  That is the key point. As long as these two people support him, he will have no worries. There is also the pursuit of the assassin. Yang Kang was biased when describing it to the officials of the Imperial City Department.  From the injuries on Zhao Kuo's body, the Imperial City Division inferred that the assassin had great palm skills, and that each of the Imperial Guards who died in the hands of the assassin had a black palm mark. His Royal Highness described the assassin's physical characteristics, and after comprehensive analysis  After making the judgment, the Imperial City Secretary believed that this assassin was probably Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang who had disappeared for several years.  The members of the Imperial City Department are relatively complex. They include spies in the army, gang leaders, royal members of the Song Dynasty, and palace attendants around the emperor. This yamen is in charge of the movements of the court and the people, and has a strong influence on the world.  He knew a lot about the matter on the Internet. Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang, had been famous for a long time. His pair of iron palms shocked Xiangxi, and he could easily escape from the Imperial Forbidden Army. This evidence was enough.  Even if there is no evidence, it is still very easy for the court to deal with a local gang. Back then, the Song Dynasty court sent troops to attack Tiezhang Peak, which resulted in the death of Shangguan Jiannan, the former leader of the Tiezhang Gang, from serious injuries. The Tiezhang Gang almost collapsed, but this time Qiu Qianren unexpectedly  Daring to assassinate the emperor of a country is tantamount to rebellion and undoubtedly violates a royal taboo.  Martial arts masters generally do not confront the imperial court, because in front of the imperial army, they can only end up with their families and families destroyed. The Song Dynasty team may not be able to fight, but they still have the courage to deal with local gangs. While Yang Kang was recovering from his injuries, the imperial court sent an army  Attack Iron Palm Peak, vowing to capture Qiu Qianren before the new king ascends the throne.  Iron Palm Peak is dangerous and high, easy to defend but difficult to attack. Qiu Qianren has been in business for many years and has many helpers. It is no problem to hold on for a while, but he knows that this time things are serious. The Song Dynasty court will also attack Iron Palm Peak for the sake of face.  , eradicate the Iron Palm Gang, there is no point in holding on, it is better to give up temporarily.  Qiu Qianren and his sister discussed for a long time and finally decided to take refuge in the Jueqing Valley first to avoid the storm. So the brother and sister took advantage of the darkness to leave Tiezhang Peak from the cliffs of the back mountain and headed towards the Jueqing Valley. The officers and soldiers broke through  Qiu Qianren was not found in Tiezhang Peak, but they found Qiu Qianzhang who looked exactly like Qiu Qianren in Tanzhou City. In order to make a deal, they escorted Qiu Qianzhang to Lin'an Mansion as an assassin.  This can only be said to be Qiu Qianzhang's bad luck. He was having fun outside when the incident occurred. After receiving the news that the army was besieging Tiezhang Peak, he was too frightened to go back. He wanted to hide, but he was caught anyway.  Being imprisoned in the sky prison for interrogation, the Imperial City Secretary wanted to know who sent Qiu Qianren to assassinate the emperor.  Qiu Qianzhang didn't understand the situation at all, and the Imperial City Secretary also knew that he was a fake, but the new emperor was about to ascend the throne, and he had to come up with an explanation. Anyway, the one who instigated Qiu Qianren to assassinate the emperor was either the Jin Kingdom or Mongolia, so Qiu Qianren was tortured and interrogated.  Qianzhang couldn't stand the torture and told the Jin Kingdom. Before he came to think about it, the Iron Palm Gang had always been on good terms with the Jin Kingdom. His sister had also helped the Jin Kingdom assassinate the Mongolian Emperor, so it made sense for his younger brother to help the Jin Kingdom assassinate the Song Emperor.     Golden State!  The night before he ascended the throne, Yang Kang received a report from the Imperial City Department. Could you be more outrageous?  The future Emperor of the Song Dynasty was very angry. This report would definitely intensify the conflict between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, and would probably lead to a renewed war between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty. This was exactly what the Mongols wanted to see.  He had already hinted that this assassination might be related to the last assassination in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and asked the Imperial City Department to investigate the Mongols. However, things seemed to have taken a strange turn. Someone might have intervened to hinder it. Yang Kang also  There was no control over the affairs of the Song Dynasty, it will take time to truly master the Song Dynasty.  His Majesty the Emperor temporarily put aside these matters and prepared for another enthronement ceremony.  In the late autumn of 1219 AD, Emperor Zhao Yun of the Song Dynasty ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, becoming the fifth emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, with the reign name Baoqing.  The first thing he faced after taking the throne was the aftermath of the death of the late emperor Zhao Kuo. The main war faction of the Song Dynasty believed that they must go to war with the Jin Kingdom, otherwise the royal family would lose face. Yang Kang suspected that these people knew who the real mastermind was behind the scenes.  He was just pretending to be confused, but Prime Minister Shi Miyuan advocated that we should continue to find out the truth and not use weapons lightly.  His Majesty the Emperor watched the debate in the court with cold eyes. Behind the curtain behind him was the Empress Dowager who was listening to the government. Originally, he was old enough to rule personally, but this powerful Empress Dowager was not familiar with him because he had become the crown prince not long ago.  He blatantly intervened in government affairs on the grounds of court affairs.  Powerful ministers are in power outside, the Empress Dowager is holding the curtain inside, and there are main war factions who are bent on provoking war This is the Song Dynasty in the hands of Yang Kang. He has become a puppet emperor who has been ignored. This is the Empress Dowager and Shi Miyuan.  The result he hopes to see is not what Yang Kang wants, but he still needs to be patient for the time being and wait for the opportunity. The most urgent thing right now is the situation between Song and Jin. He is worried that Rong Wang Wanyan Hongxi will not be able to control his emotions and provoke a war.  end.  As Yang Kang expected, the activities of the Mongols in the Jin Kingdom have also made progress. Many Jin ministers believe that since we cannot defeat Mongolia, it is better to invade the Song Kingdom, which can last longer, and the death of Song Emperor Zhao Kuo  It became a trigger. The Song State believed that the Jin State sent people to assassinate the emperor. After all, the Jin State had also assassinated the Mongolian emperor Temujin and had a criminal record. The Jin State wanted to occupy the territory of the Song State. The two  War between countries is about to break out.  Rong Wang Wanyan Hongxi has not expressed his position yet. He knows who the new emperor of the Song Dynasty is, and he wants to know the emperor's choice.  Are you really so eager to destroy your original country?  (To be continued.)
