In the seventh year of Xuanhe (1125), Jin Bingnan attacked Bianliang, and Chen Dong, a student of Tai, repeatedly wrote to accuse Cai Jing and others"Today's incident, Cai Jingqian was in turmoil, Liang Shicheng was conspiratorial, Li Yan in the northwest, Zhu Shi in the southeast, Wang Hao, Liao Tong Guanqin, and Jin people all made border provocations. It is advisable to kill the six thieves to thank the world and lead the Quartet"And that's it"Six thieves of the Northern Song Dynasty"Target**. So, how will Cai Jing and others be reused, and what will be the final result?

Cai Jing: A member of the ** people's party, who eventually died in exile.

Xining three years (1070), 23-year-old Cai Jing and the official to a product of the major, successively served as the lieutenant of Qiantang, Shuzhou Zhizhou, when Song Shenzong appointed Wang Anshi to preside over the law, because of the resistance at that time, the implementation of the new law is very difficult, Cai Jing in the local office for a short time, due to the active implementation of the new law, Wang Anshi's weight and appreciation, successively promoted Lang Zhong and Zhongshu Lang.

In the eighth year of Yuanfeng (1085), with the death of Song Shenzong, Sima Guang returned to power and began to completely abolish the new law. Although Cai Jing has repeatedly fallen out of favor, because of this style, he quickly recovered.

His position had its ups and downs, and it was not until Song Huizong ascended the throne that Cai Jing regained his position as prime minister. In addition to his work style, Cai Jing's ability to govern the country is also beyond doubt, and he is highly respected by both new and old party members. However, after he became the prime minister, although his position was stable, while fighting for power and profit, he vigorously engaged in party bans, causing chaos in the palace, and at the same time tried his best to curry favor with Song Huizong, causing dissatisfaction among the people.

In the first year of Jingkang (1126), because the Jin soldiers went south, Song Huizong Zen Song Qinzong, Cai Jing also moved his family south to take refuge, because Cai Jing misbehaved for many years, the minister removed Cai Jing as the head of the six thieves Cai Jing's official position, as a deputy secretary to live in Chongxin Hengzhou Mansion, was transferred to the Qingyuan Army, and then moved to Shaozhou, Danzhou two mansions, passing through Tanzhou Mansion, Cai Jing died, his eight sons except Cai Jie for marrying the princess and was exempted, Cai Kuan died early, and the rest of the descendants were either killed or demoted.

Liang Shicheng: Originally a eunuch, he was hanged when he was exiled.

Liang Shicheng was born as a eunuch. In his early years, due to rough ink, he was responsible for copying the holy decree in the Book Art Bureau, and later he was able to take charge of the Ruixi Hall in front of the book warehouse, responsible for the transmission of the holy decree. He was able to speak eloquently, and was valued by Song Huizong during the Zhenghe period of Song Huizong, and was later included in the "University Scholars" and awarded the champion.

He benefited from the favor of Song Huizong, after the death of Song Huizong, Liang Shicheng was promoted to Jinzhou Observation Envoy, Xingde Army Festival Envoy, and later served as the supervisor of the army, responsible for the construction of Huaming Palace, after the completion of the construction of Huaming Palace, he was promoted to Sikong, Taiyi Zhonglang General, and served as the caretaker of Shenxiao Palace, and later served as the three envoys of Huguo, Zhedong and Hedong.

Because Song Huizong did not take care of political affairs, almost all the emperor's decrees at that time were imitated by Liang Shicheng with one hand and injected his own meaning into the decrees with the other. With such power, not only can he accept bribes, but Cai Jing's father and son are high and powerful, and they can also control the rise and fall of ** to a certain extent, and even engage in co-optation and coaxing, that is, the so-called"Hidden Terrace"。

In the first year of Jingkang (1126), the crown prince Zhao Huan ascended the throne. At that time, most of the important ministers fled with Song Huizong, but Liang Shicheng stayed in the capital to protect the crown prince Zhao Huan when Zhao Kai, the king of Yunchen, was fighting for the throne. However, it was soon accused that Liang Shicheng was the masterpiece of Li Fuguo of the dynasty, saying that he was afraid of opposition and made deals with foreign ministers, and Liang Shicheng had always been by Song Qinzong's side. Later, under the pressure of the foreign court, Song Qinzong still pulled him down, he fell into the Changhua army, was hanged on the way to Bajiao Town, and his family property was confiscated.

Li Yan: He invaded the land, harmed the people, and was finally killed by Song Qinzong.

Li Yan, who was also a eunuch, was initially a court assistant, but later succeeded in taking control of the court and became the head of the inner court after Yang Jian's death in 1121. While Yang Jian seized the land around the capital during his lifetime, Li Yan went one step further and incorporated the land he had already seized directly into Xijing, thus gaining more than 34,000 hectares of land for himself.

Later, Li Yan continued to occupy the land, causing a large number of people to be displaced"There are many bankrupt families, wealthy families, and those who beg in the city", and more than 1,000 people died one after another for this, although many ministers have written to complain, but because of Liang Shicheng's protection, the authorities dare not speak out.

Li Yan's actions eventually led to a desperate uprising by the people of Beijing and eastern Hebei. In December of the seventh year of Xuanhe (1125), Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, seeing the consequences of Li Yan's actions, ordered the removal of the Xicheng garrison and the return of the land to the peasants, and the following year Song Qinzong ascended the throne, and Li Yan was sentenced to death.

Zhu Shi: Launched an attack to win the emperor's favor, was exiled and executed.

Zhu Jiao was born in Suzhou, after opening a pharmacy, he gradually became rich, Cai Jing was downtrodden in Hangzhou, he wanted to build a temple through Suzhou, Zhu Jiao seized the opportunity, he scraped together tens of thousands of yuan in a few days, prepared thousands of pieces of firewood, all won Cai Jing's approval, Cai Jing was reappointed, and Zhu Jiao's father and son came back together.

The former Cai Jing had a good relationship with Tong Guan, so he forged military registration for the Zhu family and his son through Tong Guan, and then took the risk of becoming an official. After Song Huizong ascended the throne, Cai Jing gave up strange flowers and stones to Zhu Wei and his son"Rare in Zhejiang", Zhu Wei hurriedly cleaned up the three poplar trees with exotic flowers and moved them to the palace garden, and Cai Jing seized the opportunity to promote Song Huizong, and in this way, he was promoted to the defense envoy of Hezhou.

In the fourth year of Chongning (1105), Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty ordered Zhu Shi to take charge of the Suzhou Welcome Bureau and collect exotic flowers and stones for him. At that time, Zhu Shi said that as long as he knew which family had a piece of wood or a stone, and he could play with it for a while, he would order someone to take it home and use it as an object of collection, and even did not hesitate to destroy the tomb and demolish the house, and he would crown the person who complained slightly'A great sin of blasphemy', taking the opportunity to extort money, he must force him to sell his children and daughters, and bankrupt his family.

Later, Zhu Shi forced the people to build Jingling Palace for Song Huizong and moved the Taihu Lake boulder. Because Zhu Shi oppressed the people too much, Fang La finally launched"Shoot Zhu"Uprising.

Although Zhu Shi is here"Fangla uprising"He was later deposed, but after the uprising was suppressed, Song Huizong not only respected Zhu Shi, but also allowed Zhu Shi's concubines to participate in the deliberations. Later, the Jin soldiers went south, Song Huizong panicked, gave the Zen position to Song Qinzong, and then fled south with Cai Jing, Zhu Shi and others, until the Jin soldiers retreated, and the local residents at that time demanded to be killed"Six thieves", Song Qinzong was forced to strip Zhu Shi's father and son of their official positions, exiled them, and Zhu Shi's family was sentenced to death and kicked out of the house.

Wang: Go to the bottom, collect money, and then go to the lower level competitions.

Wang Hao was admitted to the Jinshi during the Chongning period, and was later recommended to Fu Baolang by He Zhizhang of the Political Affairs Hall, and became Zhang Shangying's next dismissal. When Cai Jing was exiled to Hangzhou, Wang Hao considered Cai Jing's future and praised Cai Jing in front of Song Huizong, and Cai Jing was promoted to prime minister again in gratitude for Wang Hao's help, and two years later he was promoted to imperial historian.

Later, Wang Xiu and Cai Jing became estranged, and Wang Xiu began to tie up Liang Shicheng, and even borrowed Liang Shicheng's protection, and spent a very difficult period in a very short period of time.

After the high position, Wang Xiu began to look for a large number of flowers and willows, and even took away the Huiyu Pavilion that was exiled to Lingnan, served Deng Zhizang and took concubines, and asked the sealing bureau to pay money to relieve the siege, so that the sealing bureau would pay tribute to Song Huizong less than one-tenth of the treasures, and the rest was put into Wang Xiu's pocket.

At that time, many ** blamed Wang Huang, but he relied on the goodwill of Song Huizong to expel the other party, and later Fang Lao's rebellion was covered up, which led to changes in the situation in the southeast, and Tong Guan was later transferred to Shaofu for his meritorious work in quelling the rebellion.

Later, the envoys in Beijing ordered Wang Hao to show luxury in the hotel opposite to show the wealth of the Song court, but this proved to fuel the ambitions of the southern Jurchens. Song Huizong Chan gave the throne to Song Qinzong, because Wang Hao had helped Yuncheng Zhao Kai to compete for the crown prince, Song Qinzong immediately sent Wang Hao as the deputy envoy of the Chongxin Military Division, at the request of Wu Min and Li Gang, Wang Hao's whole family was copied, and was later sent to Kaifeng Yin Nie Shanzhuang was killed in Fugu Village.

Tong Guan: He led the army for many years, and was later beheaded and exiled for fear of the enemy.

Tong Guan entered the palace as a little eunuch, because of his good character and kindness, he mixed well in the palace. After Song Huizong ascended the throne, Tong Guan was able to supervise the affairs of the Jinming Mansion in Hangzhou, during which he became acquainted with Cai Jing, and returned to the palace at Cai Jing's strong request, so he was able to participate"Battle of Chongning Yellowstone", began to lead the army proposed by Cai Jing.

In"Battle of Chongning Yellowstone"In the middle, Tong Guan was promoted to the Wukang Military Division, and later won the title of Jixi Restoration Army of Taozhou Sikong Inspection School. In the war, Tong Guan was extremely favored by Song Huizong, although he killed the general Liu Fa because of greed, but his position was still unshaken, and finally even became the first assistant of the Privy Council, leading Wuxin, Wuning, Huguo, Hedong, Shannan Dongdao, Jiannan Dongchuan Nine Cities, and was named Jingguo Gong.

Fangla uprising"After the outbreak, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty ordered Tong Guan to lead his army south to quell the rebellion, and after two years of campaigning, Tong Guan finally completely quelled the rebellion in March of the fourth year of Xuanhe (1122), and Tong Guan was also renamed the Duke of Chu because of his meritorious service in raising troops.

Later, Song and Jin reached a maritime alliance, and Tong Guan was ordered to lead his army north to Yanjing, but he was repeatedly defeated, and in the end he could only use the millions of Guan ransom plundered by the Jin army for Yanjing. However, Emperor Huizong of Song allowed the king of Guangyang to let Tong Guan rebuild Yanjing.

In the seventh year of Xuanhe (1125), the Jin people invaded the south, and Tong Guan, who was ordered to pacify Hebei and Yanshan, fled all the way to the capital despite the dissuasion of Zhang Xiaochun, the envoy of Taiyuan soldiers and horses, and was ordered to Tokyo to take over the prefect.
