The Three Hundred Years of Great Song Dynasty:
The power of the Song Dynasty has been passed down to the eighth and ninth generations since Zhao Kuangyin wore the yellow robe, but the former glory has gradually faded.
In the disgrace of Jingkang, the two emperors of Huiqin and Huiqin were taken captive and went north, where they suffered humiliation and eventually died in a foreign land. Emperor Gaozong crossed south and settled in a corner, barely surviving.
The later Song emperors, whether it was the young Emperor Gong, or the hastily fleeing Emperors Duanzong and Bing, were just puppets in the precarious situation. Their fates had long been entangled in the torrent of history, and they could not help themselves.
After Yashan, there was no Song Dynasty.
The dynasty of more than three hundred years was destroyed.
In the Song Dynasty, there were prosperous times like the Riverside Scene during the Qingming Festival, and there was also the humiliation of the Jingkang Disgrace;
There was Renzong's benevolent government, and there was Huizong's mediocrity; there was Yue Fei's loyalty to the country, and there was Qin Hui's betrayal of the country and seeking glory.
It created a splendid culture, but was eventually destroyed by the Yi and Di. The reason for this is thought-provoking and emotional.
Let us open this book together, follow the author's writing, step into the ever-changing Song Dynasty, appreciate the magnificence and ups and downs of three hundred years, and feel the unique charm and charm of history.
