Chapter 19 Is the Song Dynasty really a coward?

Su Yue looked at the number of people, 47, not bad, they should all be her own people. Let’s talk about some controversial topics.

01: Yueyue, what do you want to say? Let's talk, let's talk. I took a look and found that except for a few people I had never seen before, the rest were my own people and would not start a quarrel.

02: Once Yueyue starts to hesitate, it turns out that she has to talk about some topics that some of us cannot accept.

03: Yes, yes, Yueyue, just say it directly next time, and we will criticize you.

Su Yue said: "Then let me ask you a question first. What do you think of the Song Dynasty?"

01: Weak and incompetent, not useful, but rich and flowing.

02: Great Song Dynasty = Great Fear = Great Gift

03: Not so good, anyway, it is worse than the Qing Dynasty.

Su Yong said: "Then let's talk about Zhao Kuangyin first. This can be said to be one of the few good emperors in the Song Dynasty in your eyes."

01: Zhao Kuangyin is indeed okay, but Zhao Guangyi is garbage.

02: Emperor Qin, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Zong of Tang and Song Dynasty. Song Taizu is still okay.

03: Yes, yes, Zhao Da is fine.

Su Yong said: "We all say that the Song Dynasty is not a unified dynasty, and the Liao, Song, Xia, Jin, and Yuan Dynasties are also listed as a lesson in the textbook. The Song Dynasty was a partial unification. Zhao Kuangyin ended the chaos of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, achieved basic unification, established a rights restriction system, and paid attention to Economic development, respect for talents. Except for some flaws in releasing military power over a cup of wine, the other flaws are not serious."

01: Apart from being unkind to Chai Rong and his old brother, Zhao Kuangyin really has nothing to say to anyone else.

02: Yes, so why do you call Ming Taizu? Because of Yanyun Sixteen States? Shouldn't this blame Shi Jingtang?
03: Everyone has their own preferences for radish and green vegetables, and Ming Taizu is also very good.

Su Yue said: "The next one is Zhao Guangyi, the God of Cars at Gaoliang River. He has been scolded for countless years because of the battle at Gaoliang River."

01: Zhao Guangyi? I don’t understand, I only know the sound of the candle shadow and the axe, the alliance of the golden chamber, and the god of chariots on the Gaoliang River.

02: It’s scary to think about it carefully, is this what a certain sound said? But no history books say that Zhao Guangyi was a foolish king.

03: That’s right, so why don’t you believe the history books but believe some news?
Su Yue copied a passage and said: "This passage was said by a person I met. He said that as long as you are a scholar, you should not scold Zhao Guangyi, because he is the one who truly broke the class solidification and allowed the people to study."

Innovation and improvement of political systems. Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty learned from the Tang Dynasty's lesson that the feudal vassal regimes could not be eliminated, and began to reform the political system. He released the military power and took back the military power of the generals of the central army, and divided the military power into multiple departments that were not subordinate to each other, so as to achieve decentralization, checks and balances, and strengthen centralization. Purpose.

Cultural education and talent training. Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty respected Confucianism very much and regarded Confucianism as the country's orthodox scholarship. He promoted civilized politics, broke the situation of hereditary elites, and allowed talents to be fully utilized.

Steady social and economic development. During the Taizong period of the Song Dynasty, the economy of the Song Dynasty developed rapidly, and agricultural production and commercial activities made great progress.

Handling relations with surrounding ethnic groups. Song Taizong adopted a series of political, economic and military measures to stabilize the domestic situation, strengthen centralization, improve people's livelihood, and attach importance to agricultural production, which led to the rapid economic development of the Northern Song Dynasty.

01: Real or fake? Is Zhao Guangyi so powerful?
02: I don’t know, but it seems to be in the history books, my brother said it.

03: I finally met a close friend. The Song Dynasty was really not as quarrelsome as rumored. It was quite good. At least the fighting ability in the early Song Dynasty was still good.

04: I know this for the first time. I have always felt that the Song Dynasty was not very good because of its emphasis on civil and military systems.

05: If he hadn't been so good, the Song Dynasty wouldn't have appeared.

Su Yue said: "Although it's not good to be too serious, but not to be serious at all is a soft persimmon. It is still necessary to get to the bottom of it. Especially for such historical issues, there are some dynasties that you like very much at the beginning, but once you get to know them deeply, you You will find that he is actually average, but not to the point of being annoying." 01: For example, me, me, I originally liked the Jin Dynasty, but later, I found out that they were all garbage.

02: That’s right, who can imagine that I was originally a clean powder? Especially the part where Qing palace dramas were popular.

03: Part of the current Mingfen is the Qingfen at that time.

04:Have you installed surveillance in my home? How did you know? Woo woo woo.
Su Yue said: "Taizong, Renzong, Zhenzong, Yingzong, and Shenzong were both Wenzhi emperors. They carried out a series of reforms during their reign. Lizong was also a good emperor. In fact, there were some good emperors in the Song Dynasty. We can't say how good they were. It’s okay to say it’s qualified.”

01: Is Song Zhenzong the one who was enshrined in Mount Tai?

02: Yes, yes, Taishan Fengchan was canceled after him.

03: In fact, Taishan Fengchan is, how should I say, a waste of money. Look at Li Shimin not being granted Zen status. Do some of us say he is not a good emperor?

04: Yes, you see Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty conferring Zen status so many times. What’s the use?

05: He is the longest-lived among the dragons, phoenixes and pigs, and he is also quite old among the emperors.

06: Although Zhuzhu is not good in his old age, it does not mean that Zhuzhu will never be good. His performance is still very good.

07: When I mention Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at the home court of the Song Dynasty, I will think of the saying that the emperor of Song Dynasty is not the emperor of Han Dynasty. My Xin Qiji is really upset.

Su Yue sighed and said: "I can only say that I encountered inhumane people. Those outstanding generals did not meet the pioneering king. The emperors of the Song Dynasty were very strange. The emperors who were good at culture and governance lived long, and the emperors who were good at martial arts were short-lived. Zhao Gou Forget about that rubbish, it’s bad luck.”

01: After the Jingkang Disgrace, there was Zhao Gou. It was definitely a miracle that the Song Dynasty could still have a Southern Song Dynasty.

02: Then Zhao Gou died, which can only be said to be retribution.

03: Yes, yes, Wan Yangou had no sons, and then the emperor became a descendant of Zhao Kuangyin.

04: All I can say is, well done! ! !
Su Yong said: "So back to the topic, is the Song Dynasty really a coward?"

01: No, I called Zhao Guangyi Song Lvzong before, but I might say it after today, but it was probably just a joke.

02: Although the Song Dynasty was not good at martial arts, the economy was really good, and the people should be living well.

03: Yes, the Song Dynasty ceded territory and paid compensation, but there was no large-scale war in the Song Dynasty for a hundred years.

04: It can only be said that there are advantages and disadvantages, and we should look at the problem dialectically.

Su Yue said: "Of course, I'm just a college student. These are what I see and what I think. If you have any suggestions, tell me, I will listen, really."

01: Received, received, although I don’t know what to say.

02: Unless you hate the Song Dynasty very much, you shouldn’t say it, right? My attitude towards the Song Dynasty is to lament its misfortune and be angry about it.

03: But how do you explain the fact that the Song Dynasty had to lose money if they won?

Yue Yue: I will say it when talking about ministers later, Sima Guang, let me check again.

03: OK.
