After broadcasting the ancient times live, I handed the system over to the state.

"This is the general context, but let's not forget what our main focus is: nicknames. So please shift your attention back a little."

"The Wanyan Ninth Sister we're going to talk about is also related to the prince we're about to meet."

"During the Song Dynasty's several negotiations with the Jin Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty demanded that the prince and prime minister be held hostage."

"In order to decide on the hostage, Emperor Qinzong summoned the princes and finally directly named Zhao Gou. Zhao Gou could only 'go away generously', while the Junior Chancellor Zhang Bangchang accompanied him, shedding tears all the way. At this time, Zhao Gou said, 'This is a man's matter, you should not do it like this, Prime Minister.' Doesn't that sound very responsible?"

"And one day, Zhao Gou had an archery contest with the Jurchens and hit three arrows at once. The Jurchens suspected that he was the son of a general and even threatened the group repeatedly. Zhang Bangchang was so frightened that he cried, but Zhao Gou remained unmoved. Later, Zhao Gou was released."

Zhao Kuangyin's brows finally relaxed slightly upon seeing this. "My Zhao family still has a man of courage!"

Zhao Defang whispered, "Father, the Zhu family emperors also worked hard to govern the country at the beginning..."

Zhao Dezhao, standing nearby, added insult to injury, "Wanyan Ninth Sister, that nickname sounds..."

Zhao Kuangyin immediately shut up, his chest heaving even more. Looking at the broken things scattered all over the hall, he felt a terrible headache coming on.

Is this really retribution for gaining power illegitimately?

It wasn't just Zhao Kuangyin; all the later Zhao emperors had a headache looking at the sky. They were all furious when they saw the sky, but fighting it was really difficult.

Both of them want to play both sides, and the one who doesn't want to play both sides will die young.

If we act rashly, let alone the Jurchens and Liao people, they themselves could first cause internal turmoil.

But there were also wise rulers. Emperor Shenzong of Song gritted his teeth and said, "Change! We must change! We must enrich the country and strengthen the military. If we don't do this, the Song Dynasty will perish!"

……

"He does seem to have the makings of a wise ruler, but given the nickname he has and Miss Zhu's tendency to tease him, I doubt things will go too well later on. He'll probably end up like Emperor Baozong or Emperor Jiajing, who were fine in the early stages, but once they gained real power, their strengths and weaknesses became fully apparent."

Li Shimin, with his hands behind his back, looked at the sky and couldn't help but feel anxious and worried about the turmoil of the people of the Song Dynasty.

Those were not just subjects of another dynasty besides Tang, but also millions upon millions of ordinary Chinese people!

"Your Majesty is rather mischievous, even imitating Miss Zhu by calling her 'Baozong'," Empress Zhangsun couldn't help but laugh.

Li Shimin's expression relaxed somewhat, but he still looked worried.

……

"After Zhao Gou was released, he was promoted to Grand Tutor for his merits and later became a military governor."

"At the end of the first year of Jingkang, Emperors Huizong and Qinzong were actually controlled by the Jin people. Zhao Gou opened the Grand Marshal's Office in Xiangzhou and recruited troops. Emperor Qinzong asked Zhao Gou to come to the rescue. Zhao Gou moved his troops eastward to Daming Prefecture, and Song troops came to join him."

"Does everyone think that after they gather their strength, they will launch a counterattack? No."

"Zong Ze proposed to cut off the Jin army's retreat route to relieve the siege of Tokyo. Zhao Gou and his confidant Wang Boyan refused and fled to Shandong. In order to cover Zhao Gou's escape, the Grand Marshal's Office ordered Zong Ze to advance, creating the illusion that Zhao Gou was in the army, and incidentally kicking Zong Ze out of the central government."

When Zhao Gou arrived in Dongping, he gathered a group of pro-surrender officials around him. They retreated to Jizhou and remained indifferent to the suffering of the people of Dongjing at the hands of the Jin army.

"Later, Zhao Gou played various political tricks and continued to retreat south. In early May, he ascended the throne in Nanjing and changed the era name to Jianyan. Thus, the Southern Song Dynasty was established."

Zhu Qinggu was somewhat moved.

"On the surface, Zhao Gou heavily relied on the anti-war faction, such as Li Gang and Zong Ze, but in reality, he listened to the advice of the surrender faction and 'tourized the southeast.' He also allowed the surrender faction to impeach the pro-war faction, such as Li Gang, which led to Li Gang's dismissal as prime minister."

"Later, Zhao Gou began to travel south along the Grand Canal, while Zong Ze, who remained in Tokyo, united righteous troops to resist the Jin and wrote more than twenty letters requesting to return to Tokyo, but Zhao Gou remained unmoved."

"Later, Zong Ze died with resentment after shouting 'Cross the river' three times."

Film clips gradually appeared on the sky.

The old man, nearing the end of his life, had a full head of white hair and a weathered face. He still stared straight at the sky, even straightening his back and shouting hoarsely, "Cross the river! Cross the river! Cross the river!"

Under the canopy, countless people dared not look at this scene any longer, their eyes reddening as they turned away to wipe their tears.

After a few shouts, the old man's grief and hope gradually faded, leaving only an empty void, and his body collapsed heavily to the ground.

[Like a handful of dust that has been scattered.]

They scattered completely.

As Zhu Qinggu spoke, he also felt a slight soreness in his nose.

History contains so many events, yet a single pen and a few words can encapsulate a person's entire life in the simplest yet most brutally cold language.

Zong Ze's life was full of regrets and helplessness; he had done everything he could!

[Give them a huge gift! How can we face these people?]

[Zong Ze was a civil official before!]

At that time, the emperor was either captured or fled, and only he dared to step forward and take charge, but in the end... alas!

[And my grandfather-in-law!]

[It's such a pity about Han Yue!]

"The Jin army continued to advance south, and even Zhao Gou's army was defeated. Wang and Huang were still concealing the military situation. Zhao Gou could not escape all the way, and the Jin army pursued him all the way. Finally, Zhao Gou ran to the river and took a small boat to Pingjiang Prefecture, and then fled to Hangzhou. Finally, the Jin people retreated, and Zhao Gou begged the Jin people for peace."

"He paid tribute every year in exchange for peace, becoming a vassal of the Jin Dynasty. The words in his letters were humble and humiliating. At this time, his mother, his pregnant wife, and even his five daughters were in the hands of the Jin people."

"So we all laughed and said that Zhao Gou recognized the enemy as his father. Zhao Gou responded to every request of the Jin state, just like a son, and felt that he was not surnamed Zhao but Wanyan."

"At this point, he was still worried that the generals' achievements would overshadow his own. When Yue Fei was defeating the Jin army, he was recalled by his twelve gold tablets. With victory in sight, the people around him begged Yue Fei to stay. Yue Fei could only leave with tears in his eyes."

"When Yue Fei finally returned, he was unjustly killed by Zhao Gou, Qin Hui, and others on trumped-up charges!"

Zhu Qinggu also released a video clip that briefly explained Yue Fei's life and the fact that he was wrongfully executed on fabricated charges.

This also led to a sharp decline in Zhao Gou's reputation.

The people under the sky immediately remembered the names of those treacherous villains in the video.

Since Prince Duan has already been turned into mincemeat, these people won't be able to escape!

Angered public opinion can sweep everything away. For so long, they have been pressed into the mud by the rulers, toiling silently like dust. But as soon as a gust of wind blows, the anger of one common man is not terrible, but what about the anger of thousands upon thousands of common men? What about the anger of tens of thousands of common men?

The prince and general Xiang Ning have the guts!
