"I didn't expect it at all!"
"I never thought that I would be able to get a spot in Mr. Lu Li's video of the Ten Great Emperors!”
"After all, in terms of external warfare,"
"Sigh, let's not talk about it. With the Song Dynasty, other than the period of Zhao Kuangyin, it can't be hard in the subsequent period!”
Song Renzong, Zhao Zhen, was not unaware of the Song Dynasty's obvious shortcomings in foreign warfare, but there was nothing he could do.
Ever since Shi Jingtang, the emperor of the Later Jin Dynasty, ceded the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun to the Khitans, the Liao Kingdom's territory had expanded to the Great Wall. After that, the Central Plains had not been completely recovered by several dynasties!
The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were extremely important to the Central Plains Dynasty!
Ever since the loss of the 16 prefectures of Yanyun, the Northern Song regime in the Central Plains had been under threat for more than 160 years!
All the emperors of the Song Dynasty wanted to take back the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, but unfortunately, none of them succeeded!
In the 27th year of the Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang, ordered Xu Da to be the commander and Chang Yuchun to be the deputy commander to attack the Yuan Dynasty.
Under the leadership of Zhu Yuanzhang, they took over the capital of the Yuan Dynasty in just over a year!
At this point, the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were taken back by the Han regime, ending the hundreds of years of nomadic rule in the north!
Without the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, the Song Dynasty had no natural barrier against foreign races.
The nomads in the north could easily send their troops south if they wanted to.
In addition, the Song Dynasty started to value literature over martial arts, sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.
From then on, the generals were in decline. Although there were fierce generals, they could not be put in important positions. They could only be suppressed by the civil officials and could not do anything.
Great coward, spineless. This was how the later generations gave the evaluation of great coward.
Song Renzong Zhao Zhen had no confidence in entering the rankings because he knew the biggest weakness of the Song Dynasty, but he could not effectively solve it.
"Since I'm on the list, I hope the rewards given by the platform above the sky can help me solve my problem!”
Zhao Zhen shook his head and cleared his mind of all distracting thoughts. He focused on watching the video to take stock of himself.
The video played slowly, and the background music changed from majestic to gentle.
"Song Renzong, Zhao Zhen!"
"You deserve the title of the Eternal Benevolent Lord!"
"During the reign of Emperor Renzong, the Song Dynasty was peaceful and peaceful. The scholars and farmers were happy, and the civil and military officials were loyal!”
"In the world of Tang Yu, the sun and moon are selfless!”
"In the Song Dynasty, Emperor Renzong reigned for the longest time. On the day of his death, the world mourned as if they had lost their parents.”
"However, Renzong is too lenient, but not decisive enough!”
"An emperor of a generation should have tyranny in benevolence and a kingly way in benevolence!”
"Emperors walk the path of tyranny, but not the path of the king. How can the golden age last?!”
"Tyrannical? King Dao?" Song Renzong, Zhao Zhen, muttered to himself as he watched the video's opening evaluation of himself.
He wanted to be domineering and walk the path of the king, but unfortunately, his growth experience did not allow him to do so.
Song Renzong, Zhao Zhen, was the famous crown prince in the later generations!
Of course, there were exaggerations in the movies and TV series. The real Song Renzong Zhao Zhen was not really replaced by a civet cat.
Thinking of his current situation, Ren Zong, who had always been expressionless, began to turn gloomy.
The introduction of Ren Zong in the video also officially began to play.
"Renzong Zhao Zhen ascended the throne at the age of thirteen, but it was only after more than ten years that he truly began to take power!”
"Zhao Zhen is benevolent and filial by nature. He is generous and kind to others. He doesn't show his emotions and is good at enduring!”
"When Empress Dowager Liu took over the government and military power, Zhao Zhen did his best to maintain the stability of the court!”
"It was only after Empress Dowager Liu passed away that he began to rule personally!”
"Renzong treated the people generously, but his background was very tragic!”
"Empress Dowager Liu, Liu E, who stole Ren Zong's imperial power for more than ten years, is his enemy who killed his mother!”
"Renzong's biological mother was Empress Dowager Liu E's maid!”
"Back then, Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty unintentionally favored Liu E's maidservant, Li Shi. Therefore, Liu E, who had not given birth to a child, went all out and took Li Shi's son as her own. She lied to the outside world that Zhao Zhen was her biological son!”
In the video, Liu E's actions after Zhao Zhen's biological mother gave birth to him were shown.
Song Renzong's Zhao Zhen's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets as the screen continued to play what happened to his biological mother.
"As for the Li Consortium, they have always been controlled by Liu E!”
"From then on, until the day she died, Madam Li never saw her biological son, Zhao Zhen. The mother and son were so close to each other, but so far away that they could never see each other again!”
"Song Renzong's mother, Li Shi, died a year before Liu E's death after being imprisoned for many years. She was only 46 years old!”
" Furthermore, the poor Li family was suddenly conferred the title of Consort Chen by Empress Dowager Liu. She only enjoyed the title of Consort for a day before she died!”
Zhao Zhen looked at the image of his biological mother, Li Shi, being imprisoned by Liu E. She was often tortured by Liu E and washed her face with tears all day long.
" Mother " Zhao Zhen looked at the image of Consort Li, who was imprisoned in a cage, covered in filth and almost blinded from crying.
Even in such a situation, Consort Li still called out to her son day and night.
The scene changed. Empress Dowager Liu E looked haggard and was about to die, but Liu E had personally poisoned Renzong's biological mother's food.
"Bengong is about to die, do you think you're going to make it?”Liu E laughed maniacally like a demon.
"Hahaha, are you thinking about the ridiculous scene of mother and son reuniting?”
"BenGong is about to fall ill, don't think about living, otherwise Liu family will be in danger!”
At this moment, Consort Li had already been tortured to the point of losing her mind. She could only laugh wildly.
But even so, she did not forget her own son. Even in his crazy state, he would still call out to Zhao Zhen with his heart broken.
Zhao Zhen's eyes were about to pop out when he saw this scene. His chest was instantly filled with anger that seemed to pierce through the clouds.
After Zhao Zhen learned the truth about his birth through Lu Li's video, he felt like he was struck by lightning and burst into tears!
Her cries carried a violent anger that even the heavens could not suppress.
Song Renzong had always been magnanimous and filial.
However, it was only now that he realized that Liu E, who he had been filial to every day, was not his biological mother.
His biological mother was treated so cruelly, and his power was in Liu E's hands!
Wasn't it miserable and sad?
