It's fortunate that it was Emperor Renzong, but it was indeed too unrestrained. This kind of plot, which is anything but modest, where the protagonist immediately starts talking about the future in front of the emperor, has always left me with a question: why didn't the emperor just castrate the protagonist, imprison him in the harem, and torture him severely, essentially turning him into a human…
The most disgusting thing about Emperor Renzong of Song was that he changed the Yellow River three times, ruining the Yellow River in both Henan and Hebei provinces. He turned the Mother River from a loving mother into a stepmother, and the Yuan, Ming, Qing dynasties, and even the present dynasty have been cleaning up his messes and managing the Yellow River ever since. Even the rare instance of the Yuan dynasty undertaking practical work to repair the Yellow River was overthrown by an uprising.
Many people consider Qin Hui a proponent of peace, which is truly an insult to the peace faction. The leader of the peace faction, Zhao Ding, had a close relationship with Yue Fei and strongly supported the war against the Jin. The difference between advocating war and peace lies in their perspectives: a direct assault on the Jin's capital versus a gradual, calculated approach. Qin Hui was a complete surrenderist, an inside agent sent by the Jin.
Everyone says that if you travel back to the Qing Dynasty, you won't rebel, but if you travel back to the Song Dynasty, you'll definitely rebel even more.
Do you know why the Song Dynasty was the wealthiest dynasty in ancient times? Do you know why the Song Dynasty was technologically advanced? Do you know why the Song Dynasty was able to develop its commerce? The reason for all this is that "the land has been pancakeed." Those who know, know; those who don't, I won't go into too much detail.
Those who have never been exposed to politics can take a look.
The author has some knowledge of history but absolutely no understanding of politics, or rather, no understanding of politics at all. Perhaps they've read some books on politics but haven't grasped its essence. In short, those interested in changing history but lacking understanding of the operation of public power, credibility, social foundations, and institutions can read this; otherwise…
That platform is shameless; it took me ages to find out it was Qidian.
I stumbled upon an animated short film based on this novel on a certain platform. The author consistently recommended similar novels from other apps on that platform, but after searching for ages using the titles, I found absolutely nothing related. I was getting really angry. Then I wondered if it was a work from Qidian (a Chinese online literature platform), and sure enough, I found it.
Later on, no titles could be bestowed: Song Dynasty Military Governor, commanding all the armies of the realm, granted the Emperor's seal of office, awarded the Nine Bestowments, General of Heavenly Strategy, commanding the Secretariat, the Chancellery, and the Imperial Secretariat 😏 Then it gets cold, General, please wear more clothes.
I think it would be better to have a Song Dynasty joke every day to stimulate the humor.
No matter how much we dislike the Song Dynasty, it was the only dynasty suitable for bourgeois reforms. The book mentions banks and paper money (jiaozi). It states that once banks and paper money were established, the emergence of the bourgeoisie was inevitable. The advent of banks and paper money would inevitably promote the development and prosperity of commerce and logistics.
