Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 1021: Song crack

PS: There is still a chapter at 12:30

The feudal lords are the only ones who respect their monarchs. This is the description of Song state politics many years ago, when the three kingdoms of Lu divided up the office, the seven Mus of the state of Zheng oversaw Zheng Bo, and the six ministers of the state of Jin seized power without authorization. After the rebellion of Song Guole Daxin and the Fifth Young Master, Song Jun's authority plummeted...

The current monarch of the Song Dynasty was called Gongsun Jiu before he succeeded to the throne. He was the grandson of Duke Yuan of Song, the son of Duke Qin, the nephew of Duke Jing of Song, and after the rebellion of the Five Lords, all the sons died. The land was raised as a monarch for ten years.

Ten years have passed, and the timid young boy in the past has become an adult man with a beard on his lips. He has grown up with his body, and he has the ambition to be unwilling to be a puppet...

The affairs of the foreign dynasty were controlled by the Le Clan. As Zhao Wuxi's in-laws, the Le Clan, who was not too strong at first, became the largest clan in the Song Dynasty. As for the size of the palace, when Song Jun was young, Nanzi was in charge. After he was crowned, Nanzi completely left the palace and lived in Haoshe, but her eyeliner and tentacles were still firmly monitoring here, Song Jun's Every word and deed can't be separated from her discernment.

Song Junjiu lived in the shadow of his aunt, like her puppet, he couldn't get involved in the foreign affairs and internal affairs of Song country, and even the traditional sacrificial power was deprived by Nanzi, he was like a useless head. She was raised in a deep palace, trapped in many dangers, and could not see the sun.

Only in the short time Nanzi left the country of Song, Song Jun had a chance to breathe, and those who opposed Nanzi also had the possibility to contact him.

Although Nanzi made great progress in the country and turned the people of the common people into her followers, there were some people who didn't believe in evil, and were always loyal to the government of Song, not this "demon woman".

That was last year, when the Zhao clan pulled out of the state of Zhu, Nanzi used the pretext that Zhu Si was related to Song's interests, ran to meet with Zhao Wuxi, and threw him in the country without asking Song Jun's opinion. As a monarch, after all, he had to come into contact with some poetry, classics and history, and learn some skills necessary for nobles. Song Jun could only use these to pass the time. One day, an old man from the imperial clan was speaking to Song Jun about "Qi Feng", and he picked out one of the songs and read it again and again.

"Wenshui soup is soup, pedestrians are full. Ludao is swaying, and Qi Zi is soaring. Wenshui is surging, pedestrians are amazed. Ludao is swaying, and Qi Zi is wandering..."

At the end, he emphasized: "This poem is called "Zai Qu", and this poem is a satire of Qi's daughter Wen Jiang, who was married to Lu State, and her half-brother Qi Xiang Gong. Wen Jiang is the mother of Lu Jun. , specializing in Lu Quan, which led to the use of Lu's wife's words, she kept leaving Qufu, and eagerly went back to Qi, and arrived in the morning, who cares? For Duke Xiang..."

He spoke heavily, and after speaking, in front of Song Jun, he pouted towards the northeast, as if he meant something.

Song Jun suppressed his excitement and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that the Master is saying that Da Wu went to see Zhao Qing, just like Wen Jiang and Xiang Gong?"

However, the old man of the Huang family ignored him and continued to ramble on, just as there was a cronie arranged by Nanzi outside vigilantly tilted his head to check, but found nothing.

"Your Majesty just need to remember that Wen Jiang's treason of power ended because Duke Zhuang of Lu was growing up, and with the help of his relatives such as Ji You, Wen Jiang had to return his power."

He was still implying something, but that was all he had said. Under the surveillance, the old man skipped this poem and started the next one. Until the old man left, Song Jun went to say goodbye, and he secretly stuffed a sweat-soaked cloth into Song Jun's hand...

Jiu didn't dare to watch it on the spot, until he returned to his bedroom at night, he felt the darkness and asked the only trustworthy person from the small temple to light the candle, unfolded it, and there were greetings from Huang Yuan, which was the emperor's initiative to contact Song Jun. !

...

The Huang family and the Le family are both after Song Daigong, so they are called "Dai family". However, the two families also have great differences. The Le family is responsive to Zhao Wuxi's demands, while the Huang family believes that it should maintain its independent and independent status as before. Only then can the country of Song give full play to its neutrality in the Central Plains, attract envoys from various countries, and become a trade transit point, rather than the current state of absolute Wu

, Chu Zhihao.

Moreover, he has always been suspicious of Song Jinggong's death, and he is increasingly dissatisfied with Nanzi's actions, but due to the failure of the Xiang clan many years ago, Huang Yuan did not dare to make trouble, so he could only be silent and act according to Nanzi and Le's orders. For this reason, it is quite trusted by Da Sicheng Lemix.

As Song Jun grew up, Huang Yuan was also watching him silently, and after finally taking advantage of Nanzi to contact him when he was out, he finally had the support of the monarch who had been fighting alone for many years.

With the ten years of Song Gongjiu, Nanzi hid in the Haoshe because he was pregnant and did not come out to see people. He could only control the Song country through his subordinates. This made the Huang clan see many loopholes and took the Zhao clan to fall into the princes. At the moment of the siege, with the encouragement of Huang Yuan, Song Jun had the idea of ​​a coup d'etat to seize power.

The coup must have soldiers. Most of the guards in the city obey the orders of the Le clan, and the emperor's soldiers are far inferior, so Huang Yuan tried to win over another real power faction: the disciple of Confucius, Sima Ziniu!

Nanzi's power is increasing day by day, and he is worried that the female lord of the Song Dynasty will be in power, and Huang Yuan is not the only one who will rule the country. At that time, let Nanzi sit on the throne.

"Nanzi will not be good for Song!" Under Huang Yuan's persuasion, Sima Ziniu also decided to join them.

However, taking into account the relationship with the Zhao family, Sima Ziniu also emphasized that the purpose of this coup d'etat was: "To expel Nanzi, to the side of the Qing monarch, it is only necessary to restore the situation of co-governance between the monarch and the minister, and it is possible to be independent in diplomacy, but not Enemies with the Zhao clan."

He believed that with Zhao Wuxi's character, if Song Guo continued to stay in Zhao's camp, it wouldn't matter if Nanzi was in charge of Zhao Qing or not. What he didn't know was that Nanzi was indeed pregnant with Zhao Qing's child... …

So they followed the opportunity of Zhao's call for the Song State to send troops to attack Song, and tried to take advantage of Sima Ziniu's "big Sima" position to move the Les and those soldiers who were deeply influenced by Nanzi to go abroad, and then take advantage of the emptiness of Shangqiu. Take down. However, Nanzi saw through their tricks in advance. In a hurry, Huang and Sima Geng could only launch a mutiny in advance on Ji Chou Day in early February!

Because of the severe illness of the head of the Le family, Nanzi did not show up for a long time, and their supporters were panic-stricken. Therefore, at the beginning, the offensive of the coup fighters was smooth and rapid. With the consent of Sima Geng, some gate guards also participated. , they quickly occupied three city walls, then entered the palace, grabbed Song Jun, and then only needed to break the Yuefu and Haoshe to be done.

"Rebuilding the Song Kingdom, the achievements of the second and third sons are also!" Song Junjiu couldn't wait to start his consecration of meritorious deeds, and secretly planned a fierce revenge against Nanzi! She will be chopped off her hands and feet and imprisoned. The evil seed she gave birth is a shame for the Song Dynasty, and throwing it in the toilet to drown is the best choice.

However, they underestimated Nanzi's influence on the city. After ten years of publicity, her preaching has penetrated into the hearts of many people. After the bells and drums of Haoshe rang in unison, the Heavenly Dao believers who had been hiding at home and did not know who they were going to be enemies with rushed out. Their destination was Haoshe, and anyone who stood in their way was an enemy!

...

Song Gongjiu, Huang Yuan, and Sima Ziniu, the three monarchs and ministers who saw the hope of victory, never imagined that the change of victory and defeat would be so fast...

At least in Shangqiu, the Song people no longer "respect the king". Under the resistance of the fanatical believers, the Haoshe, which symbolizes the divine power of Nanzi, has not been able to capture. At this time, Sima Chen Dingguo of the Le family also led the city. The soldiers of the Le clan from outside came back, and for a while, the army of the coup d'etat seemed to be caught in a vast ocean. Not only could they not control Shangqiu, but instead retreated step by step. In the end, Song Jun, Huang, and Sima had to abandon the capital and retreat to the east.

Nanzi's authority within the Song state is also divided into regions. It is the strongest in Shangqiu, and weaker in the respective territories of Le's, Huang's, and Sima Niu. Especially in the area of ​​Pengcheng, the power of the royal family and the public family is still strong here. If history does not change, in more than a hundred years, the emperor will use this as a base to become the only strong minister of the Song Dynasty, and finally complete the generation of Song Dynasty.

So in mid-February, they retreated to Pengcheng, tried to gather those loyal to the monarch again, and launched a counterattack against Shangqiu. However, after a few days, the three learned a shocking news:

In the name of a great witch, Nanzi claimed that Song Jun was immoral, tore up the oath, disrespected ghosts and gods, and made the emperor unhappy, so he deposed him!

"What qualifications does a demon woman have to abolish me?" Song Jun was furious, and Huang Yuan and Sima Geng also thought it was ridiculous. Even if the Song Kingdom emphasized ghosts and gods, and the remnants of Yin Shang paid great attention to witches, but in the Yin Shang period, the king himself was the biggest sacrifice, why? Has Wu Zhu deposed the monarch?

However, the Song state has long ceased to be the original Song state, the people have not known the ruler for ten years, and the territories of the small nobles in the west have long been annexed by the Le family, or have become the private land of the temples of the Tao of Heaven. Therefore, with Dangshan as the boundary, the Song Dynasty was divided into two halves for a time: the west included Shangqiu, which was controlled by the Le family and Nanzi, and the east was centered on Pengcheng, where the nobles who supported the monarch gathered here.

After a lapse of ten years, the Song Kingdom split again and fell into a civil war. This is why the Song Kingdom stood by and stood by when the Zhao clan fought fiercely with Qin, Wei, and Zheng.

Because they have no time to take care of him!

At first, the war was as Sima Geng and others imagined. The chariots driven by the nobles of the Eastern Song Dynasty easily ran over the commoners with poor equipment and shabby weapons. If it hadn't been for a support army from Cao State to rescue them, maybe they would be able to retake Shangqiu~lightnovelpub.net~ and destroy the "witch", "evil son" and "right traitor".

However, things have gradually changed. Although Pengcheng's belief in the Tao of Heaven is not as strong as that of Shangqiu, there are also many supporters in the countryside. For a time, the Eastern Song Dynasty led the way. What's more, although the army of the Western Song Dynasty was pieced together, there were also many military veterans who had retired from the Zhao family as the core of the officers. They initially lost to Sima Geng's army in the field battle, but after training in March and April, it happened. an extraordinary change. Under the command of Chen Dingguo, the army of the Western Song Dynasty, with the cooperation of Lu and Cao Yuanbing, took advantage of the number of people to fight two beautiful battles, and suddenly they attacked Pengcheng!

At the beginning of June, Zhao Wuxi had already won the wars in Hedong and Hexi, and was preparing for peace talks with Qin.

However, when the Western Song Dynasty army was ambitious to take Pengcheng and end the civil war, two things happened.

One is that Le Mi finally didn't get through it and passed away...

The second is that Wu's army forcibly intervened in Song's civil war. When the three thousand Wu Jia showed their flags and launched a dense phalanx under Pengcheng, Chen Dingguo knew that this war would become extremely long...
