Saving the Northern Song: But This Time, the Heroine Takes the Lead

@reader Does the author have any updates at noon?

@reader Can the author write the protagonist as the most beautiful person in the book, who is the most beautiful in the world? Can you please reply?

The author's historical skills are quite good and his writing style is also good, but he is slow to get started.

@reader The protagonist's father is one of the few people in the New Party who wants to reconcile the relationship between the two parties. Unlike Zhang Dun, although he was talented, he was too selfish and too ruthless to listen to others, which led to the decline of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Come on, the author found a treasure book

When and how did the protagonist's father become the prime minister again (Shang Shu Zuo Pu shot down the minister, as well as Zeng Bu and Cai Bian)

@readerThe author makes the main writer the most beautiful in the world

An Tao (1034-1108), courtesy name Houqing, was born in Kaifeng, Henan. Minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, son of Guanglu doctor An Rihua. Entered Taixue in his early years and studied under scholar Hu Yuan. In the fourth year of Jiayou's reign (1059), Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, he passed the examination and started his career as an observation and promotion officer in Caizhou. He successively served as Nancao of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, transfer judge of Jinghu North Road, Kong Mudu Gongshi, Zhongshu of the Procuratorate, Zhishe Xingyuan, Quan Sansi Envoy, and Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs. In the sixth year of Yuanfeng (1083), he was Tongzhi of the Privy Council. During Wang Anshi's reform period, he followed the law calmly and was highly appreciated by Song Shenzong. In the second year of Yuanyou (1087), he entered the Privy Council and advocated guarding the border and opposed opening the border to cause trouble. In the early years of Shaosheng's reign, he paid homage to his minister, and tried his best to harmonize the old and new laws. He had a rift with Prime Minister Zhang Dun and went to Zhengzhou. After Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty came to the throne, he returned to the Privy Council and discussed with Prime Minister Han Zhongyan to abandon Huangzhou and Shanzhou. Seeing that the party's disaster had begun, he avoided his position in old age and went to Henan Prefecture. In the early years of Chongning, for the crime of abandoning Huangzhou, he was demoted to the deputy envoy of Tuanlian in Qizhou, placed in the Jianchang Army, and restored to the position of Tongyi doctor. In the second year of Daguan (1108), he died of illness in Luoyang. [1]

Zhang Dun believed that An Tao always acted like a big brother and taught him how to do things, while An Tao believed that Zhang Dun was too authoritarian and monopolistic, let alone his colleagues in the three provinces and the Privy Council. Zhang Dun didn't even take Zhe Zong too seriously in this regard. During this period of large-scale demotion of conservative officials, the demotion orders for many officials did not come from Zhezong's edicts, but from Zhang Dun's prime minister's order (white post). In other words, Zhezong agreed to demote these officials, but Zhang Dun had the final say on how to demote them and where they were demoted to serve. Over time, Zhang Dun often directly ordered someone to be demoted or released as prime minister without going through a petition. For this reason, An Tao had heated arguments with Zhang Dun in public several times. An Tao even revealed the matter in front of Zhezong. Although Zhezong did not punish Zhang Dun for it at the time, it shocked Zhang Dun, and he felt angry and disgusted with An Tao.

A year later, Zhang Dun paid homage to the prime minister and wanted to be dismissed for a period of several years. An Tao argued: "I have been blessing you for a long time, and I am afraid that I will never end my admiration. I am here to make it clear and true. To change it suddenly and spread it to the world is not a good sound." So the discussion was abandoned. An Tao and Zhang Dun were commoner friends. Zhang Dun hoped that An Tao could help him, but An Tao refused to let go of his dignity. There were financial lawsuits among the people of Yangdi gradually, and they colluded with the admonisher Lai Zhishao. When the Kaifeng government handled the case, Zhang Dun protected Lai Zhishao and wanted a lighter punishment, but An Tao opposed it. Zhang Dun also wanted to impeach him together with the Kaifeng government, but An Tao objected again, so there was a rift with Zhang Dun. When Zhezong of the Song Dynasty offered sacrifices to the Mingtang, An Tao was the envoy of the guard of honor. Officials passed by Chidao (the imperial road of the emperor). When An Tao was about to be impeached, the admonisher Chang Anmin also said that "the teaching hall should not be used in Xiangguo Temple to have fun." Zhang Dun then took the opportunity to talk about how good An Tao and Chang An were in appearance, so An Tao went out to Zhengzhou and was transferred to Daming Prefecture. [2]
