In the Southern Song Dynasty, I competed with Mongolia for the world

Chapter 366 Push back the map, the Song Dynasty is about to perish

Chapter 366 Push back the map, the Song Dynasty is about to perish
Since Zhao Yurui ascended the throne, he defeated Shi Miyuan, pacified Li Quan, captured the Central Plains, and destroyed the Kingdom of Jin. One person accomplished what several generations of Song Dynasty emperors could not accomplish.

Of course he himself was complacent every day, but because after he purged the court, most of them were famous ministers. Everyone turned a blind eye to these, and no one mentioned the emperor's achievements.

Well, Zhao Yurui has been holding back for so many years, but he didn't expect that someone sensible would finally come forward.

Going to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices is a ceremony held by ancient emperors on Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to gods and earthly creatures. It consists of two parts: "Feng" and "Zen".

The ancients (pre-Qin Dynasty) believed that Mount Tai was the highest among the mountains, so it was called the first mountain in the sky.

According to ancient sayings, the so-called emperor must be ordered by heaven, so the emperor is qualified to enshrine "the best mountain in the world"

The Taishan Ceremony can be said to be the highest ceremony for ancient emperors. Usually only emperors who have changed dynasties or are extremely successful can consecrate the world, declare to heaven and the gods their great achievements in reorganizing the world, and at the same time express their acceptance of the destiny to govern the world.

This was very popular in the pre-Qin and post-Qin Dynasties. It is said that sixty or seventy emperors have visited Mount Tai. Of course, most of the emperors had little to count.

Now Liang Chengda means that Zhao Yurui is already on par with Emperor Qin and Han Wu, so he should go to Mount Tai no matter what.

Didn't people once say that Zhao Yurui was in the wrong position and took away Zhao Hong's throne? Now let's enshrine the world and let hundreds of millions of people in the Song Dynasty know that His Majesty was ordered by Heaven, the True Dragon Emperor.

Speaking of this piece of shit like Liang Chengda, Zhao Yurui Xin was impressed by his flattery.

Zhao Yurui looked so happy.

Of course, there are still many upright ministers in the court. Liang Chengda's matter did not receive much response, but many middle- and low-level officials who were frustrated also wrote letters asking the emperor to grant him a Zen status.

Everyone is flattering like crazy. Your Majesty, you take back the Central Plains and destroy the Kingdom of Jin. The people will live and work in peace and contentment, and the country will be peaceful and the people are safe. This must be sealed.

Zhao Yurui looked at the letter and saw that many of the officials were unknown. They were basically unsuccessful officials who took the opportunity to show their faces in front of the emperor.

Among the ministers and cabinet members, only four people started making noises, and most of them remained calm.

He was looking intently, and beside him, Emperor Li was also carefully observing the emperor's expression.

When he saw Zhao Yurui smiling, he knew that Liang Chengda was right to flatter him.

Zhao Yurui usually doesn't flatter much, but Liang Chengda did it just right this time.

After Zhao Yurui watched for a while, he raised his head and met Emperor Li's eyes. He was a little embarrassed and quickly asked: "Which emperor in the past has been to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen?"

Emperor Li remained calm and said slowly: "Your Majesty, after the pre-Qin Dynasty, Qin Shihuang was the first to be granted Zen status. It is said that dozens of emperors later visited Mount Tai——"

Zhao Yurui was overjoyed when he heard this, and the smile on his face became even worse.

"It's just-" Huang Li suddenly hesitated.

"Just what?" Zhao Yurui asked quickly, and then Zhao Yurui seemed to feel something and asked again: "Who are the famous emperors?"

Emperor Li looked back at Uncle Xie.

Uncle Xie Fang immediately stepped forward and said, "Back to Your Majesty——"

"In the first year of Yuanfeng (110 BC), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty granted Zen to Mount Tai."

Zhao Yurui nodded and said with a smile: "The emperors of Qin and Hanwu are just slightly inferior in literary talent." That is a must.

Uncle Xie Fang and the others were stunned for a moment. The emperor actually commented on Emperor Qin and Han Wu like this. After a moment, he added: "In the 32nd year of Jianwu (56 AD), Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty granted Zen to Mount Tai."

Zhao Yurui's expression changed slightly: "Guangwu Zhongxing, an emperor through the ages." He must be qualified.

Uncle Xie Fang did not expect that the emperor had such a high opinion of Emperor Guangwu, and added: "In the second year of Linde (665), Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty granted Zen to Mount Tai."

Zhao Yurui thought about it this time, and then said: "The tiger father has no dog sons, and he has the legacy of Zhenguan."

"In the 13th year of Kaiyuan (726), Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty granted the title of Zen to Mount Tai."

"..." Zhao Yurui paused for a moment, and then reluctantly said: "In the prosperous Kaiyuan era, flaws cannot hide the virtues."

"In October of the first year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1008), I, Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, consecrated Mount Tai."

"..." Zhao Yurui's mouth twitched slightly, how do you want me to brag?
Tang Xuanzong could barely blow it, but how could Song Zhenzong do it?
Emperors who have always been more famous and accomplished, except for these six great gods, such as Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin, Emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, and later the emperor Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Yuanzhang, and Emperor Xuanye of the Qing Dynasty did not dare to try. Mount Tai was granted Zen status. These emperors were self-aware. Not just any cat or dog could go to Mount Tai.

None of the first few were in positions of authority. They either overthrew their masters or killed their brothers and imprisoned their fathers. Even Lao Zhu surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty.

Now Song Zhenzong directly defeated Zhao Yurui.

"Have I never been there, Taizu of the Song Dynasty?" Zhao Yurui asked, cursing in his heart, what kind of a piece of shit is this Song Zhenzong?

Emperor Li and the other three shook their heads.

Uncle Xie Fang said again that Wu Zetian only went to Mount Song to pray for Zen, and did not dare to go to Mount Tai.

Uncle Xie Fang's words were quite bold. In fact, he was reminding Zhao Yurui not to be so arrogant. Taizu didn't even go to Mount Tai. The emperor who wanted to go to Mount Tai had to be self-aware.

Most of the ministers and officials in the court were opposed to going to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen.

Zhao Yurui regained the Central Plains and conquered the Jin Kingdom. Of course it was a great achievement, but there was really no need to do so.

This is the same as someone else forcibly occupying a piece of land in your home. If you take it back now, you just did your job. Is it worth showing off?
It's not worth it at all. If you have the ability, go grab a few pieces of land from others.

Zhao Yurui vaguely felt that none of the three of them supported this matter.

And before he came in, the three of them were talking about it, probably talking about this matter.

Uncle Xie Fang memorized it clearly, obviously he had done his homework.

"This bastard Liang Chengda." Zhao Yurui suddenly cursed: "I took back the lost land, but I just did my duty. I dare to show off in a big way even if I promise such a small thing. How can I be so virtuous and capable? How can I compete with the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty? compared to."

Emperor Li smiled when he heard this. The emperor still knew himself.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yurui's tone changed: "Although I robbed Jeju Island and obtained Daeyuan Island, these places are still uncivilized and barbaric lands. I will wait until I drive away the Meng Tatars and seize a large territory before I go there." It’s never too late for Taishan.”

Emperor Li was delighted. The emperor was speaking out of anger, proving that he was also capable of opening up new territories.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty," the three of them said quickly.

Zhao Yurui planned to put the matter of going to Mount Tai aside, but he could do the matter of changing the year name.

Yuan Zhen was originally the reign name of the Yuan Dynasty, but no one has used it yet.

Baoqing was also used for several years, and the emperors of the Song Dynasty often used several reign names. Zhao Yurui decided to change the reign name next year and call it Yuan Zhen.

This is how it went.

There are some strange twists and turns later.

For example, some ministers suggested moving the capital to the Central Plains and back to Kaifeng.

Nanjing of the Jin Kingdom had been recaptured by the Song Dynasty and renamed Kaifeng. At this time, there were already proposals to move the capital back to Kaifeng.

The matter of moving the capital is very troublesome. Most of the important ministers and senior officials in the DPRK are from the Jiangnan and coastal areas, and may not be willing to return to the Central Plains now.

Zhao Yurui could see that there were very few relevant memorials.

But Lin'an obviously cannot always be the capital.

According to Zhao and Rui's idea, either the capital should be moved to Jianning (later Nanjing) or the capital should be moved to Yanjing (later Beijing).

Kaifeng is currently too close to Mongolia. It is meaningless to defend the capital at every turn unless Mongolia is destroyed.

After Shanxi is recovered and Mongolia retreats to the grasslands, they can consider moving to the Central Plains.

And Yanjing is now in the hands of Mongolia, so the difference between moving to Nanjing and staying in Lin'an is not very big.

Thinking about it this way, Zhao Yurui planned to wait.

Soon Zhao Yurui saw another memorial at the top.

The memorial was written by Zhao Rushu, the imperial censor, who reported that someone was addicted to alchemy, causing harm to the country and the people, and intending to top the Song Dynasty.

Damn it, such a serious crime?Zhao Yurui was also shocked.

The person Zhao Rushu reported was Lai Wenjun, a native of Ningdu County, Jiangnan Road (Jiangxi).

Lai Wenjun, courtesy name Taisu, was a native of Luanyuan (now Meijiashan) Village, Xiaotian Township, Ningdu County, Jiangxi Province.

It is said that he is good at geography and good at understanding the earth. He calls himself Buyi, and the locals call him Lai Buyi.

Lai Wenjun participated in the autumn examination this year and went to Longxing Mansion (Nanchang) to wait for the autumn examination. Just last month, he and his local classmates gathered for a drink. During the dinner, Wang Yu, a scholar who also participated in the autumn examination, said that since he ascended the throne, his Majesty has worked hard to govern and strengthen the country. On the morning of the day, the Song Dynasty was on the verge of revival, and everyone around was bragging about the imperial court and Zhao Yurui.

Unexpectedly, Lai Wenjun drank a little. I wonder if he was pretending to be crazy or acting stupid. During the dinner, he sneered: "So what? The destiny cannot be violated, and it is all in vain."

Everyone was surprised and asked what he was talking about, and some told him to be careful what he said.

But this guy drank too much, got a little drunk, and said loudly: "On the cliffs and the sea, there are neither emperors nor immortals. In [-], in the year of Wansi, this Zhao Song Dynasty was like this-"

Everyone was shocked and covered his mouth. Not long after, Wang Yu, who was with Lai Wenjun, reported Lai Wenjun to the local manufacturing department.

Because they all had to participate in the Autumn Examination and were considered competitors, Wang Yu reported that Lai Wenjun was addicted to alchemy, causing harm to the country and the people, and cursed that Zhao Song would not last long.

Zhao Yurui couldn't help but smile after reading the memorial: "How can I, the Song Dynasty, be convicted for my words? Lai Wenjun just said a few words and got on the line. How can Wang Yu be a good official when he becomes an official in the future?"

Zhao Yurui was disgusted with people like Wang Yu and originally planned not to pursue the matter, but the three people present looked at each other and seemed to have something to say.

After thinking for a while, Li Huang, the Minister of Punishment, suddenly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, please reprimand Lai Wenjun, otherwise there will be more people using alchemy to cause chaos and influence the government in the future -"

"Hey, why do you say that?" Zhao Yurui didn't expect that Emperor Li would pay so much attention to him, just like the flatterer Zhao Rushu.

Huang Pu said loudly: "If you push back the picture, it will be banned by the imperial court, and it will not be circulated among the people. Lai Wenhua is a scholar, good at learning alchemy, and his evil words are causing harm to the public. He should be severely punished to set an example."

"He's talking about pushing back pictures?" Zhao Yurui was shocked.

Tuibei Tu was written by Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty to predict the fortune of the Tang Dynasty based on Li Shimin's wishes. Starting from Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Tuibei Tu predicted various major events after the Tang Dynasty.

But because he was afraid that he would be unlucky if he pushed the open air secrets to the back, Yuan Tiangang pushed Li Chunfeng's back and told him not to push back, so he called it "pushing back picture".

The push-back diagram can accurately preview what will happen next, which has worried emperors throughout the ages.

After Zhao Kuangyin, Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty, unified the world, he was worried that someone might be plotting against him, so he summoned Zhao Pu for discussion.

At that time, the collection of folk books was repeatedly banned, and Zhao Kuangyin had a headache. At this time, Zhao Pu came up with a way to ask the Song Dynasty to do two things. One was to collect the authentic folk books, and the other was to disrupt the order of the original texts and vigorously publish fake versions. There are more and more editions, and after a few years, even if there are genuine copies in collections, the genuine copies will be considered fake.

Starting from Taizu of the Song Dynasty, Tuibei Tu was designated as a banned book and was specially confiscated. At the same time, fake versions were secretly issued. The scrambled Tuibei Tu was distributed everywhere. After more than 200 years, the real version is almost invisible to the public. .

Zhao Yurui also admired Tuibeitu in his previous life. Hearing this, he couldn't help but ask: "How similar is the current fake version of mine?"

"Sixty images." Li Huang said.

"Which image is Lai Wenjun talking about?"

"24 like."

"If you have the original text, bring it to me immediately."

About half an hour after Zhao and Rui finished talking, Zhao Rushu entered the palace with the push-back picture.

The push-back diagram has pictures and words.

The title of the 24 images is: "Dinghai".

Zhao Rushu opened it in front of the emperor and saw a picture as soon as he saw it.

The picture shows a vast ocean, with a big sun emitting rays of light, and a piece of wood floating on the vast ocean.

Zhao Rushu pointed at the picture and said, "According to the sorcerer's words, this incident happened at sea."

Because there is a prophecy below.

"On the cliffs and on the seaside, there are both emperors and immortals. It was [-], in the year of Wansi." Zhao Yurui looked very interested: "What does it probably mean?"

Zhao Rushu and Li Huang looked at each other, and they looked at each other, but neither of them dared to say anything.

"Your Majesty, this is the gibberish of a sorcerer——"

"Just tell me what this means, and I won't blame you."

Zhao Rushu had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "The hexagrams and prophecies said that this happened at sea -"

The first sentence "mountain cliff and seaside" means that the incident takes place in a place with cliffs and seaside.

"Yashan?" Zhao Yurui said subconsciously.

"???" Li Huang and Zhao Rushu didn't know why.

"Go on."

Not the emperor but also the immortal means that the emperor has become an immortal, which means that the emperor Bintian is dead.

Zhao Rushu originally didn't know what 320 meant, and no one in the Song Dynasty knew it, but Wang Yu asked Lai Wenjun that day, and Lai Wenjun said when he was drunk that [-] refers to the eighteenth person who passed the throne, and [-] refers to Zhao Song. [-] years.

Zhao Yurui was stunned for a moment and then asked: "Is there a multiplication table now?"

Of course Li Huang and others were confused.

Zhao Yurui pointed at Erjiu and explained.

Uncle Xie Fang knew about this. Uncle Xie Fang said that there were Jiujiu songs in the Spring and Autumn Period, but they were only from 45th to [-]th, and then expanded some in the Song Dynasty. Originally, it was not until the Yuan Dynasty that Zhu Shijie wrote "Arithmetic Enlightenment", which contained [-] formulas, and it was officially changed from [-]st to [-]th. One, to nine-nine, is called the nine-number method.

So there was still no multiplication table in the Song Dynasty.

There is no multiplication table, but Lai Wenjun knows the meaning of [-], which is even more powerful.

Seeing that Emperor Zhao Yurui seemed to be more convinced, Li Huang said: "Your Majesty, you must not trust these sorcerers easily. I have experienced fourteen emperors since the Song Dynasty. Now the country is prosperous and the national power is booming. There is no such thing as eighteen."

Zhao Yurui was the 14th emperor of the two Song Dynasties. According to the diagram, there are still four emperors left and the Southern Song Dynasty is about to end.

But Zhao Yurui knew that there were really eighteen emperors in the two Song Dynasties, and it was really 320 years.

Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng's push-back picture is simply amazing.

"What do the following mean?" Zhao Yurui pointed down calmly.

There is also a hymn below the prophecy.

There are four lines in the ode.

"At the end of the eleventh lunar month, people have no way to save themselves, and there is no way out. Fighting is raging and there is no way out. Give them guidance in the huge waves."

This one is even more awesome. The first sentence together is the traditional Chinese character Zhao.

"Eleven divination people Xiaoyue" together is the character Zhao, and then the last "end" means the demise of the Zhao Dynasty.

The next three sentences make it clear at a glance that Zhao and Song Dynasties were destroyed and there was no way to recover. The emperor of Zhao family and the people of Song Dynasty all threw themselves into the sea.

Zhao Yurui was silent for a long time after reading the 24 photos.

He finally crossed over and worked hard to revive the Song Dynasty. You two, Lao Li and Lao Yuan, still want me to die, right?

"Pass an edict to summon Lai Wenjun to Beijing."

"Your Majesty, no." Several people were anxious and knelt down one after another. Officials in ancient times, regardless of whether they were upright officials or treacherous officials, were afraid that the emperor would be addicted to Taoists and sorcerers, so they would all have to stand aside.

Emperor Li and others persuaded the emperor that this suggestion was not credible and that Lai Wenjun was talking nonsense.

Zhao Yurui smiled and said, I know what you are worried about. I am not superstitious about alchemy. I just want to see Lai Wenjun and ask him something. Don't worry, I will definitely not become a foolish king who is superstitious about alchemy.

After the emperor repeated his assurance, several people dared to get up.

In fact, ancient emperors valued Feng Shui, and every imperial mausoleum had to recruit warlocks to check Feng Shui.

Lai Wenjun was a physiognomist and a foreigner who was good at Feng Shui. After winning the imperial examination in history, he served as a county magistrate in the Southern Song Dynasty. Later, he felt that what he had learned was of no use, so he resigned and wandered around the world.

At this moment, Lai Wenjun had not yet passed the imperial examination and was preparing for the autumn examination, but he did not expect that he would be summoned into the palace by the emperor due to his drunken remarks.

A few days later, Lai Wenjun entered the palace to meet the emperor.

This guy is also very courageous. When he saw the emperor in person, he said that he was right and that no one could change it.

Tuibei Tu says that you are the Eighteen Emperors of Zhao and Song Dynasty, 320 years, which is the Eighteenth Emperors, 320 years.

Zhao Yurui is a little unbelieving in evil. Since he traveled through time, history has completely changed, and the Song Dynasty has become comparable to Mongolia.

How could it possibly perish in a few decades?
Both Zhao and Rui felt that they could live until the death of Zhao and Song Dynasty in the original history.

He certainly didn't believe it.

But Lai Wenjun insisted that Tuibeitu could not be changed, and man could not defeat God, saying it was God's will.

Zhao Yurui looked at Lai Wenjun who was not afraid of death and secretly admired him.

He thought for a while and had to say: "Is there any way to try to change it-"

Lai Wenjun lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, God's will cannot be violated."

"Man can conquer nature." Zhao Yurui said solemnly: "Lai Wenjun, why do you learn alchemy?"

"..." Lai Wenjun.

"I heard that you read people's fortunes, changed their fates against the will of heaven, were proficient in geography, and changed their feng shui. Isn't this a great achievement?"

Lai Wenjun was silent for a moment.

He didn't know how long it took, but he boldly looked up at Zhao Yurui, and then looked at Zhao Yurui carefully.

When officials in ancient times met the emperor, they generally did not dare to look directly at him. This was Lai Wenjun trying to see the emperor's face.

Zhao Yurui let him see it calmly, but actually he felt a little panicked.

"Your Majesty, you are indeed different." Lai Wenjun suddenly said.

"Oh, what's the difference?" Zhao Yurui smiled.

"The common people dare not say anything."

"But it doesn't matter, I forgive you."

"Your Majesty is not supposed to be the emperor."

"Bold." Niu Bao and Hu Song roared at the same time.

Zheng, Niu Bao’s sword was pulled out.

"Hey." Zhao Yurui came back to his senses, waved his hand and said, "You both get out."

Niu Bao and Hu Song had no choice but to get out of the hall in despair.

"Why shouldn't I be the emperor?" Zhao Yurui asked again with a smile.

"The ordinary people can't tell, but His Majesty's face looks like a dragon but not a dragon, like an emperor but not an emperor, like a human but not a human..." Lai Wenjun was also a little surprised: "This is the first time ordinary people have seen such a face."

"Hahaha." Zhao Yurui laughed: "Then, do you think I can change my destiny against the will of heaven and extend the country for the Song Dynasty——"

Lai Wenjun stopped talking, probably still wanting to say that God's will is unavoidable.

But the emperor kept staring at him.

After waiting for a while, Lai Wenjun could only say: "Discharging the secrets of the sky, and reversing the fate of destiny will all result in backlash."

“We help people read faces and feng shui, it’s all trivial matters.”

"Your Majesty's attempt to reverse the national destiny will inevitably damage the national destiny of others. This is a major event that will shock the world."

"Lai Wenjun, you must have a solution, right?" Zhao Yurui continued to ask.

Lai Wenjun could only say: "Your Majesty must do this, for fear that Your Majesty--"

"Just say it."

"I'm afraid that Your Majesty will - lose his life."

As soon as Lai Wenjun said this, Zhao Yurui's expression changed slightly.

The hall suddenly fell silent.

Zhao Yurui was a little panicked in his mind. Zhao Yurui lived a long life in history. Even when the Song Dynasty died, he did not die.

After the fall of the Song Dynasty, he was captured in Dadu and lived for another 11 years before dying.

Of course, Zhao Yurui didn't know that Zhao Yurui in another time and space lived for such a long time.

He only knew that he had taken good care of his body over the years and exercised regularly, so he would have no problem living to be 80 or [-] years old.

Superstitious and superstitious, there was a voice in his head reminding him that this was feudal superstition and he should not believe in physiognomy and feng shui.

But the Tuibei diagram is really awesome, and it really clearly predicts the fall of Zhao and Song Dynasties.

The Eighteenth Emperor, in the year 320, at the end of Zhao Dynasty, there was a sea battle at Yashan, which makes people believe it even if they don’t believe it.

The hall was quiet for a long time. After Lai Wenjun finished speaking, he kept looking at Zhao Yurui secretly.

Zhao and Rui didn't speak for a long time. He thought that Zhao and Rui were probably afraid of death.

No one didn't care about his own life, Lai Wenjun breathed a sigh of relief.

"I——" At this moment, Zhao Yurui really spoke.

"I am actually an ordinary person." Zhao Yurui said slowly: "In the past, I only hoped to live an ordinary life."

"But God brought me here."

"If I can really sacrifice for the sake of the billions of people of the Song Dynasty and the Han people, I am willing to sacrifice——"

"Because I believe that my mission here is probably to allow the Song Dynasty to continue to exist-"

Lai Wenjun didn't know if he understood, so he immediately shouted: "Long live your Majesty, the common people are convinced."

After he finished speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed several times, and stood up again before Zhao Yurui could say no.

"Ordinary people cannot change their destiny against the will of heaven. Ordinary people cannot do such a big thing as changing the dynasty."

"..." Zhao Yurui.

"But since Your Majesty is not afraid of death, you can try to change the feng shui. As for whether it will work, ordinary people cannot guarantee."

Lai Wenjun raised two issues, one is to find the tomb of Genghis Khan, and the other is to change the feng shui of the Southern Song Dynasty imperial mausoleum and move it to the imperial mausoleum.

There might be a chance.

When Zhao Yurui heard that he was looking for Genghis Khan's tomb, he couldn't help but look deeply at Lai Wenjun.

Obviously, Lai Wenjun knows who will replace Da Song.
