In the long river of Chinese history, there is a period of turbulent changes, that is, during the Southern Song Dynasty, a country gradually lost its ambition.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, it was a time when the political situation was changing and the country's fortunes were uncertain. Before the conclusion of the Longxing Peace Conference, a number of important ministers such as Zhang Jun and Tang Siwei were reprimanded and died one after another, which plunged the Southern Song Dynasty government and the opposition into a state of unrest. However, the real waves have only just begun.
As time passed, Zhao Yan faced the dilemma of losing important ministers in a row. A series of important figures such as Chen Kangbo, Huang Zushun, Wang Gangzhong, Zhang Tao, and Yang Cunzhong passed away one after another, and the core of the Southern Song Dynasty regime gradually became precarious. Zhao Yan was uneasy, in order to stabilize the regime, he began to make an exception to use Yu Yunwen and Hong Shi, who were less qualified, however, these two resigned one after another, and the political instability was worrying.
Just when the government and the opposition were talking, in the winter of the second year of the main road, Zhao Yan adjusted the regime again, using Ye Hao and Wei Qi as ministers, and Jiang Fu as the governor and Chen Junqing as the governor of the Privy Council. At that time, this political team was called "soul winning", but it was actually a team that reconciled the main war, the main war, and the two factions. The four important ministers had different views and opinions on some major issues, and unity and cooperation became a luxury.
Ye Hao advocated the restoration of Zhongxing, and suggested reusing the ministers of the main war faction such as Wang Yingchen, Wang Shipeng, Chen Lianghan, Zhou Cao, etc., while Wei Qi was always the representative of the anti-war main peace. Divisions within the regime repeatedly thwarted Zhao's plans for the Northern Expedition. Jiang Fu is even more abnormal, on the grounds that "the time has not come", vigorously dissuaded Zhao Yan and advocated maintaining the status quo. Zhao Yan's ambitions were frustrated, and his heart was full of disappointment.
In October of the fourth year of the main road, the regime changed again, Chen Junqing became the left minister, and Yu Yunwen was re-promoted to the right minister and privy envoy. This time, the main battle faction once again dominated, showing that Zhao Yan still harbored the ambition to recover from the Northern Expedition. Yu Yunwen actively advocated revising the relevant provisions of the Longxing Peace Conference, demanding that the Jin Dynasty return the Henan region where the Northern Song Dynasty mausoleum was located, and changing the humiliating etiquette of north-south exchanges. However, Chen Junqing firmly objected, believing that such a move would be futile and might even arouse the suspicion of the Jin people, which would be detrimental to the restoration plan.
Zhao Yan finally chose to follow Yu Yunwen's advice, and Chen Junqing had to resign. Although the plan to revise the peace agreement failed to materialize, in the following years, Yu Yunwen became the sole helmsman of the phase, and planned the Northern Expedition together with Zhao Yan. In September of the eighth year of the Gandao, Zhao Yan appointed Yu Yunwen as the Xuanfu envoy of Sichuan, and he presided over the affairs of Sichuan and Shaanxi, while Zhao Yan was personally responsible for the Jianghuai side, planning to raise troops in the east and west at the same time and join Henan. However, the regime change was like a storm, and within two years, Yu Yunwen unfortunately passed away in office.
Yu Yunwen's death became a major turning point for the Southern Song regime. Since then, there have been no important ministers in the Southern Song Dynasty who are as resolute as Yu Yunwen, and Zhao Yan has gradually lost his ambition to restore the Central Plains. The changes within the regime gradually stabilized, and Zhao Yan began to appoint Wang Huai as prime minister for a long time for the sake of national stability. Under Wang Huai's auxiliary administration, the Southern Song Dynasty gradually recovered, economic development, and social contradictions were eased.
In this long history of the Southern Song Dynasty, the political situation during the Gandao period was like a big drama, with the ups and downs, rise and fall of the characters, like a magnificent historical picture. In this deep and interesting story, we see the moment when a country loses its ambition, the mood of a monarch who oscillates between ambition and political reality, and some heroes who work hard for the fate of the country.
This history tells us that the rise and fall of a nation is inseparable from the determination and wisdom of each ruler. During the Southern Song Dynasty, the political situation changed dramatically.
