He packed his bags, planning to slip away in the middle of the night.
But he was just too tired.
I fell asleep without even realizing it.
"kill!"
I woke up in the middle of the night with a start.
Torches were everywhere.
It seemed as if several thousand troops were charging in.
The peasant army was completely unprepared.
They began to scramble to escape.
Emperor Huizong of Song also fled in panic.
He fled for several miles.
He had already come to his senses.
There was no army of several thousand at all.
It's estimated that there are only a few dozen archers from within the county.
He led several hundred able-bodied men out of the city for a night raid.
The many torches they raised terrified nearly two thousand peasant soldiers, causing them to flee in disarray.
A rebellion,
It wasn't without its gains.
Emperor Huizong of Song now had a kitchen knife in his hand.
It was found in a residential building near the city wall.
A hastily formed squad leader
He also taught Emperor Huizong of Song how to make a broadsword.
This involves tying a kitchen knife to a wooden stick with a rope.
Emperor Huizong of Song, still in shock
Carrying a backpack,
Carrying a broadsword,
Wearing tattered clothes, they fled into the mountains to continue their journey.
He wanted to flee to Muzhou.
The prefect there was a member of the imperial clan.
He doesn't trust other local officials.
Moreover, there are soldiers in Muzhou.
Responsible for protecting Shenquanjian (the largest minting institution in Zhejiang).
We could easily escort him to Jiangxi.
Several days later, Emperor Huizong of Song finally arrived in Tonglu County.
Those two pieces of cured pork were long gone.
They used copper coins to buy food along the way.
He carried a broadsword on his shoulder.
His clothes were tattered and ragged.
No one actually came to steal him.
Arriving at the city walls,
Emperor Huizong looked at the "Ming" flag on the city wall.
They were so scared they didn't dare go into the city.
I only bought some food and drove around the city.
In fact, Zhang Shun's troops never actually attacked.
There wasn't even a proclamation to persuade them to surrender.
The magistrate of Tonglu County changed his mind and switched sides.
The emperor of the Song Dynasty is gone.
Why don't you hurry up and submit to the new dynasty?
.....
The amount of coins minted by the Shenquan Mint in Muzhou
It ranks only in the lower middle range nationwide.
When it was officially minting coins
It can only produce 100,000 strings of cash per year.
And the hometown of Crown Princess Zhang Jinping
The mint there can produce 300,000 strings of cash annually.
However, the Divine Spring Supervisory Office is extremely important.
Because it was the largest minting institution in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang region.
More than ten years ago,
Cai Jing then began to recklessly issue currency.
Shenquanjian, with an annual output of 100,000 strings of cash.
It became an annual production of 300,000 strings of copper coins and 2 million strings of iron coins!
Fang La plundered this place.
But the copper ore cannot be taken away.
After Emperor Huizong of Song established the small court in the southeast,
The output of Shenquanjian has increased again.
Based on the "ten coins"
They actually came up with a "worth twenty coins" scheme.
In order to protect the Muju Mint
Emperor Huizong of Song personally selected the candidates.
Zhao Zicheng, a member of the imperial clan, was appointed as the governor of Muzhou.
Zhao Zicheng used to study at the Imperial Academy.
He even served as Zhao Yuan's student.
However, when Zhao Zicheng enrolled,
Zhao Yuan was busy improving movable type printing.
He was soon promoted to Prefect of Puzhou.
The two had no real relationship whatsoever.
Zhao Zicheng graduated from the Imperial Academy.
First, become the Assistant Magistrate of Jiaxing County.
He was quickly promoted to a high-ranking official in the capital.
They narrowly escaped Fang La's rebellion.
Unable to stand the atmosphere of Tokyo's officialdom,
Zhao Zicheng then applied for a transfer to Jiaxing.
Because he has many friends there.
"Prefect, Wuzhou (Jinhua) has been besieged by rioters,"
"Tonglu County has also changed its flag to the one with the character 'Ming' on it,"
"It would be best for Muzhou to make plans as soon as possible," advised Prefect Han Ju.
Zhao Zicheng immediately rebuked him: "Zicang, what makes you say such a thing?"
"The Emperor trusts both of us,"
"That's why we were appointed to govern Muzhou."
"The Emperor's fate is now unknown."
"At times like these, we must never lose sight of the greater good."
Han Ju's tone was filled with resentment.
"Where is the greater good?"
"Confucianism emphasizes benevolence and righteousness, but benevolence is no longer present."
Where are the righteous generals?
"I thought he had arrived in Hangzhou,"
"Able to learn from painful lessons and strive for improvement,"
"But I never expected it to get even worse."
"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have agreed to let him take the official position!"
"You were born into a close advisor to the emperor,"
"How could you utter such disobedient words?" Zhao Zicheng said angrily.
Han Ju had been harboring a lot of resentment for a long time.
At this point, I might as well let it all out.
“I have been studying the books of sages and worthies since I was a child,”
"What remains is the ambition to govern the world and benefit the people."
"But what have you been doing all these years?"
"Write a poem for that tyrannical emperor,"
"To compose music for his new lyrics."
"Mr. Su Dongpo is my mentor."
"Doesn't Emperor Huizong (Zhao Ji) know this?"
"It was all because a petty person falsely accused some remnant of the Soviet Party,"
"He has no regard for the bond between ruler and subject,"
"Demote me to the position of head of a Taoist temple!"
Zhao Zicheng said, "After the Emperor crossed the Yangtze River to the south,"
"After all, you were re-promoted and made the Prefect of Muzhou."
"He has no trusted confidants left."
"Only then did he remember me, his former close advisor."
Han Ju became increasingly angry as he spoke.
"Forget it, I don't want to argue with you anymore."
Zhao Zicheng found it very boring.
