"From the time when Taizu Chen Qiao rebelled against the Yellow Robe and took over the throne, to the second year of Jingkang, there were nine emperors in the Northern Song Dynasty, who lived for 167 years." Shen Long continued, "Historical books of later generations will call the incident in the second year of Jingkang the shame of Jingkang. The humiliation was no less tragic than that of Wuhu Luanhua. The women in Kaifeng City, ranging from concubines and princesses to ordinary people, were kidnapped by the Jurchens and humiliated to the point of countless deaths. The concubines and princesses served the same person, and the queens and concubines were all turned into playthings."

"Taoist Shen! Is this true?" Wang Anshi and his son were so jealous after hearing this that they burst into tears. They did not expect that the Song Dynasty would die so cowardly and shamefully.

"Since ancient times, when dynasties fell, some were tragic and some were humiliating. However, it is rare to see someone as cowardly and shameful as the Song Dynasty. Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that many of these concubines and princesses could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide. On the contrary, these two emperors were still alive and well. They were granted the title of Duke of Hunde and Marquis of Chonghun by the Jin State. They lived in the ice and snow of the Northeast for eight years and died in 19 years. They did not know that Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Kuangyi saw him. I don’t know what I would think if my descendants have such virtues!" From his tone, it could be heard that Shen Long was also quite disdainful of Emperor Huiqin.

The other party commented so on the officials of the Song Dynasty. Logically speaking, Wang Anshi and his son, as ministers of the Song Dynasty, should refute it desperately. But after hearing what they just said, they were really embarrassed to say this.

After their emotions calmed down a little, the picture on the wall changed again. The area of ​​the Song Dynasty had shrunk by nearly half, and the words Southern Song Dynasty appeared on the map. "However, the Song Dynasty has not yet been completely destroyed. The ninth son of Song Huizong, Kang Wang Zhao Gou survived, crossed south on horseback, and established his capital at Yingtian Mansion in Nanjing. The Jin Kingdom withdrew its troops from Kaifeng Mansion and established Zhang Bangchang as the Great Chu Emperor, which was known as the Pseudo-Chu in history."

"Then the Eight-Character Army in the north rose up against the Jin Dynasty, and the Southern Song Dynasty also launched the Northern Expedition. It was commanded by Zongze, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Wu Jie and other anti-Jin Dynasty generals. They once defeated the puppet Qi Liu Yu army and the Jin Kingdom's coalition forces on both sides of the Yellow River."

Puppet Qi, why is Puppet Chu missing? Wang Anshi and his son were a little confused, but Shen Long didn't say anything, probably because this little thing is not worth mentioning.

"Some people say that 'the Northern Song Dynasty has no generals and the Southern Song Dynasty has no prime ministers'. There were few famous generals in the Northern Song Dynasty, but in the Southern Song Dynasty, there were many famous generals. Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and others repeatedly defeated the Jin army. Yue Fei even defeated the main force of the Jin army in the battle of Zhuxian Town. Seeing that Kaifeng was about to be restored, it was a pity that Zhao Gou was afraid that after defeating the Jin Kingdom, Yue Fei would win back the Huiqin Emperors and affect his throne, so he sent twelve gold medals to recall Yue Fei and advocated peace with the Jin Kingdom; Yue Fei and his son were killed on "unfounded" charges."

"No one in history has destroyed the Great Wall more than this." The picture on the wall changed again, and a tomb appeared, with four people kneeling in front of the tomb. "This is the Yue Temple by the West Lake. In front of the Yue Temple is Qin Hui, who created the unjust prison. , there are four kneeling statues of Wang, Wan Qiman and Zhang Jun. Later generations said, "Green mountains are fortunate to bury loyal bones, and white iron is used to cast innocent ministers." In my opinion, a kneeling statue of Zhao Gou can be added here. "

"Oh, by the way, I just forgot to mention it. In the following hundreds of years, many people blamed Jiefu for the Jingkang Incident and the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty. The general reason is that Jiefu set up the party and ruined the government, and Cai Jing, who advocated the alliance with Jin to attack Liao, was a member of the new party. If it hadn't been for him, the Northern Song Dynasty would not have ended up like this." Shen Long turned sideways and looked at Wang Anshi.

Am I wrong to want to get rid of the bad government of the Song Dynasty? Wang Anshi's dark face turned white instantly, his eyes were dull, and his body was shaking constantly.

"Hundreds of years later, historians have a new view on this matter. If Jiefu had not advocated reforms to extend the life of the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty might not have been able to survive even the Jingkang period; and even if the Song Dynasty did not join forces with the Jin Dynasty to fight against the Liao Dynasty, , or even unite the Liao Kingdom to jointly resist the Jin Kingdom, is it possible to do it with the military strength of the Song Dynasty? If your own military is weak, don't blame other countries for coveting it!" After hearing what Shen Long said, Wang Anshi's face regained a trace of color. .

"Let me continue. More than a hundred years after Jingkang, Mongolia rose up in Mobei and repeatedly defeated the Jin Kingdom. At this time, the Song Dynasty thought of the old method and tried to unite Mongolia to destroy the Jin Kingdom. However, after the Mongolia destroyed the Jin Kingdom, they also behaved like the Jin Kingdom. The country sent its troops southward as before, and after decades, the Southern Song Dynasty was finally destroyed in a battle at Yashan. One hundred thousand soldiers crossed the sea to die for the country, and the Southern Song Dynasty came to an end in the 153rd year of its reign."

"The last record of the Song Dynasty I gave to Jiefu seems to have a record of the canonization of Duke Yan? Before the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed, Duke Yan turned to the Yuan Dynasty established by the Mongols. In subsequent dynasties, as long as it was occupied by foreigners, In the Central Plains, Duke Yan went to kneel down and bow down. This is the family that is respected by all the scholars in the world!"

When Shen Long was speaking, most of the land in the north on the map was dyed red, representing the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. "The Mongolian Yuan Dynasty can be said to be the most cruel and powerful conqueror in history. They occupied an unprecedented vast land, but how to govern the country Without any method, they brutally oppressed the people and divided the people into four categories: Mongols, Semu people, Han people and Southerners. The Southerners were the people of the Southern Song Dynasty. According to the law, the Mongols could only kill a Han or Southerner at most. To compensate for a donkey, scholars in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty also became the lowest class, one official, two officials, three monks, four Taoists, five doctors, six workers, seven hunters, eight common people, nine Confucians, and ten beggars. They are better than beggars. Just a little bit."

Now the faces of Wang Anshi and his son became even paler. They were serious scholars. They were at the top of every class in the Song Dynasty. Unexpectedly, they became the bottom class in the Meng Yuan Dynasty.

"At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, uprisings continued in various places. The Mongolian Yuan Dynasty had only been established for a hundred years. Zhu Yuanzhang, a commoner in Huaiyou, rose up, drove the Mongolian Yuan out of the Central Plains, restored the old land of China, and achieved imperial hegemony as a mere beggar. Throughout China In all dynasties, there has never been a person who has won the righteousness of the country better than Zhu Yuanzhang!"

Logically speaking, Wang Anshi and his son should be happy to hear that China's country has recovered, but seeing the half-smiling smile on Shen Long's face, they couldn't be happier.

They had no choice but to let Zhao Kuangyin, the founder of the Song Dynasty, succeed in usurping the throne by bullying a widow and young son. When it comes to achieving national integrity, the Song Dynasty is probably ranked at the bottom of all dynasties.

"Okay, let's stop talking about it today. What happens next has little to do with you, so you don't need to listen!" After saying that, Shen Long closed the screen and turned on the lights again, and the light returned to the room.

When the lights came on, they saw that the clothes on the chests of Wang Anshi and his son were soaked with tears, and their eyes were bloodshot. They were really shocked by the information Shen Long had just revealed.
