Video Clip: Opening Inventory of the Ten Emperors

Chapter 21 Changing the civet cat for the prince, Song Renzong's life experience
"I can't think of it at all..."

Song Renzong Zhao Zhen couldn't help sighing: "I never thought that I could occupy a place among the top ten meritorious emperors.

What virtue and ability I have, can be compared with Emperor Qin, Han Wu, Tang Zong, Song Zu and other emperors.

In terms of governing the country civilly, I feel that it is not bad.

But in terms of foreign wars, not only I, but also since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, there have been few emperors..."

Song Renzong Zhao Zhen naturally knew his own shortcomings, but he couldn't help it.

During Zhao Zhen's reign, he fought many battles. Although the winning rate was quite high, they were all defensive battles.

Defensive battles are much easier than offensive battles. The defensive side wins as long as they don't lose their city, and the offensive side loses if they don't open up new territories.

Ever since Emperor Shi Jingtang of the Later Jin Dynasty ceded the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to Khitan, everything changed.

All the emperors of the Song Dynasty wanted to take back the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, including Song Renzong, but unfortunately no emperor did it.

In the end, it was Zhu Yuanzhang who made the move, taking Xu Da as the marshal, and took it back in just one year.

Small battles are won, big battles are lost, and there are many false battles.

This is a common problem that has existed since the founding of the Song Dynasty.

This is all determined by the political environment in which the emperors of the Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military affairs.

We know that the formerly powerful Tang Dynasty was too strong due to military officers and Jiedu envoys, which led to the famous Anshi Rebellion in Chinese history, so that the Tang Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline, and a generation of dynasties perished.

The situation that Jiedushi's separatist regime weakened the power of the central government did not change until the end of the Tang Dynasty.

After the Song Dynasty unified the world, the emperors of all generations should have based on this consideration, absorbed the lessons of the demise of the Tang Dynasty, and began to weaken the status of military officials, emphasizing literature and restraining military affairs.

The purpose of doing this is that the entire Song Dynasty produced countless literati who are worthy of history, such as Xin Qiji, Wang Anshi, Lu You, Wen Tianxiang, Ouyang Xiu and others.

Literary works naturally emerge in endlessly and have been passed down through the ages.

However, there are only a handful of military generals who have shined through the ages throughout the Song Dynasty.

In hundreds of years, only Yue Fei, Yang Zaixing, Han Shizhong and others came out.

If there is no famous general to lead, no matter how well equipped the army is, no matter how many soldiers there are, it will be nothing more than a group of headless flies with no combat power.

This situation has also seriously damaged the level of military training.

Although the Song army was fairly well-equipped, due to the general environment of emphasizing civility over military affairs, the channels for ordinary soldiers to be promoted through military exploits were not smooth, and the status of generals was low. One can imagine their motivation for training and fighting?

Think about Tang Taizong Li Shimin, who is the emperor and personally leads troops to train, teaching officers and soldiers what he is best at archery. Which emperor in the Song Dynasty could do this?
In order to prevent generals from monopolizing power, the Song Dynasty divided the commanding power of the Forbidden Army into three, so that if a war breaks out, the command will be ineffective.

Coupled with the adoption of a more garrison method: the forbidden army changes its station in turn, and the general does not move with the army.

In this way, it can be achieved that the general does not know the soldier, and the soldier does not know the general, so as to prevent the deep relationship between the soldier and the general.

It completely eliminated the hidden danger that military generals in the late Tang and Five Dynasties ruled the roost by force and threatened the court.

But in this way, the generals, especially the chief general, are not familiar with the characteristics and combat effectiveness of the troops they lead, and they are not majestic and credible to the subordinate troops, which will inevitably affect the combat effectiveness.

The soldiers had no appeal, which greatly weakened the Song Army's combat power.

It is not difficult to imagine how much strength such an army that lacks systematic training and average appeal can exert in foreign wars.

Tyrant Qin, Strong Han, Prosperous Tang, Rich Song, Gang Ming, and Nu Qing, these are the evaluations of the past dynasties by later generations.

Among them, Fu Song also has a nickname called "Fu Counseling", from which we can also see the military talents of the emperors of the Song Dynasty.

The reason why Song Renzong Zhao Zhen did not have the confidence to be on the list is that he was aware of his lack of military capabilities.

"Since I'm lucky enough to be on the list, I don't know what kind of reward the immortal will bestow.

Whether these rewards can help me effectively solve the problems that my Song Dynasty currently has is unknown.

I hope I can do so.

For the common people of the Great Song Dynasty. "

Zhao Zhen sighed, and continued to focus on the inventory video.

[Song Renzong, Zhao Zhen, is kind in nature, generous and harmonious to outsiders, this is an advantage. 】

[However, as an emperor, lack of domineering, indecisive in doing things, pay attention to human feelings, often miss important things. 】

[The emperor is not domineering enough, how can the dynasty prosper? 】

[Renzong succeeded to the throne when he was just 13 years old. Liu E, as the queen mother, listened to the government behind the curtain for nearly 11 years. When Liu E was alive, Emperor Renzong never knew his life experience. 】

[Actually, the biological mother of Emperor Renzong Zhao Zhen was Li Shunrou, who was the maidservant of the queen mother. After giving birth to the prince, the queen mother Liu E snatched the child and raised it all the time. 】

[Li Shunrou originally had only a dead end. Killing his mother and taking his son was not a rare thing in the palace. At that time, it was very difficult for the first emperor Zhenzong to have an heir, and there were only two sons. 】

【After Empress Dowager Liu E had Zhao Zhen, she was able to live in the main palace and then rule the world. 】

[As for Emperor Renzong's biological mother, it was extremely difficult to see her son, and she didn't see her son a few times until she died. 】

"It turns out that my biological mother is..."

Zhao Zhen looked at the content of the video and burst into tears.

It was hard for him to imagine that a mother would be separated from her son just after she gave birth, making it difficult to get in touch with her.

What a torment this is for a mother.

As the emperor himself, he stands aloof and is the master of the world,

But her own biological mother had suffered all kinds of grievances at some point.

"Queen Mother, why didn't you tell me! If there is no fairy to tell me, I will be deceived by you for the rest of my life!"

Renzong Zhao Zhen's face was pale.

It was difficult for him to accept this fact.

For so many years, he has lived in the shadow of the Queen Mother Liu E.

At this moment, when he found his own mother and understood the truth of the video, his heart seemed to become much stronger.

Now he doesn't know how to choose.

People have feelings. Although Liu E concealed the truth, it was his adoptive mother who raised him for so many years and taught him a lot.

And Liu E didn't kill himself in the end, he proclaimed himself emperor like Empress Wu Zetian, didn't he?

She is fully capable of this!

At this moment, Song Renzong was hovering between reason and emotion, in every possible way.

His body, as well as his soul, were imprisoned by an invisible wall and he could not break free.

…………

At the same time, the emperors of other dynasties also clearly saw what happened to Song Renzong through the inventory video.

"As an emperor, it's really sad that you don't even know your own life experience."

Parallel Dynasty In the early years of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang lay on the bed, watching all this, empathized with him, and couldn't help but feel sad for Song Renzong.

His mother, Liu Yu, died before Liu Bang's incident.

In the end, he failed to see his son rule the world.

In Liu Bang's heart, his biological mother is very important.

Otherwise, when he ascended the throne as the emperor, he would not call his ancestor "Ms. Zhaoling",
Even Empress Lu, on the proposal of Prime Minister Chen Ping, was honored as "Empress Zhaoling".

This can all show the position of his mother in Liu Bang's heart.

"I hope that Song Renzong can make a sharing video and tell me the final result of the matter.

I even hope that he can find his biological mother and bring him into the palace to fulfill his filial piety.

As children, if you can't even take care of your own parents, what's the point of being an emperor? "

Liu Bang hated Empress Dowager Liu very much just after watching the video.

How vicious is such a person who breaks up other people's families with his own hands.

Although Zhao Zhen is not the son of his Liu family, he is also an orthodox son and daughter of China after all.

Therefore, Liu Bang also sincerely hopes that the emperor can find his biological mother, care about the world, and benefit the people.
