Kim Hee-jong Wan Yan Kang).
In the ninth year of the reign of the emperor, 1149 A.D.
The third emperor of the Jin Dynasty, Jin Xizong, suddenly noticed that there was a subtle abnormality in the court.
What is the anomaly?
The emperor found that his royal relatives and cousin Wan Yanliang suddenly drifted a little.
This cousin has been smooth sailing in his official career, and he worshiped Pingzhang in June of the eighth year of the emperor's reign and the right prime minister in November. In the first month of the ninth year of the emperor's reign, he also served as the marshal of the capital and received the title of Taibao.
As the prime minister's main job, he commanded hundreds of civil and military officials, and helped the emperor make decisions on national affairs, while Marshal Rendu was in charge of the elite troops of each battalion in Gyeonggi.
In this way, Comrade Wan Yanliang can be said to have held all the military and political power of the Jin Dynasty in his hands.
If it's just a powerful courtier, it's not a big deal, because in the era of feudal imperialism, whether it was the emperor's relatives or the court, they essentially worked for the emperor.
Since they were part-time workers, the emperor had the power to fire or dismiss them at any time.
Moreover, working for the emperor is not protected by the "Labor Law", so above the imperial court, he is still a high-powered nobleman one second, and the next second he may be deposed as a concubine and assigned to the frontier.
Of course, the emperor didn't want to take Yan Liang under the knife, no matter how he said it, he was also his cousin, and the emperor was at most, but he was a little jealous of Comrade Wan Yan Liang.
But Wan Yanliang obviously didn't think so.
He believes that he is one of the best people in the world with his left hand in major political affairs and military power in his right hand.
Dealing with state affairs in the court all day long can no longer satisfy his restless heart, Wan Yanliang said, I want to help the emperor himself do something.

How can it help? Here's your chance.
There is a bachelor in the imperial court, surnamed Zhang Mingjun, Bachelor Zhang is good and elegant, and he writes well, often helps the emperor draft edicts, and is cautious on weekdays, which is very popular with the emperor.
Bachelor Zhang had a personal relationship with Comrade Wan Yanliang and even drafted an edict once, which happened to be seen by Comrade Wan Yanliang.
Wan Yanliang took the edict and looked at it, it turned out that the emperor wanted to raise funds from the private sector to repair water conservancy projects across the country.
The emperor's idea is very good, there is not enough silver in the treasury, so you can let the people pay for it first, after all, it is taken from the people and used for the people, which is also a good policy.
However, Wan Yanliang has a different opinion, he believes that the tax of forced labor in this dynasty is already serious, and the state will not be able to pay for a water conservancy project by itself, so why do you need to raise donations in the private sector?
The people are still short of food and clothing, and it is really inappropriate to collect extra money from them.
It's normal to have a disagreement with the emperor.
Because the emperor is not virtuous, the emperor also makes mistakes.
The reason why the emperor wanted to find a group of ministers to discuss state affairs in the court was of course to hope that everyone could work together to find a way.
If you have an opinion or an idea, you can go to the road, and even if you want, you can go straight to the palace and find the emperor himself to spit out his thoughts.
However, Comrade Wan Yanliang's brain circuit is extremely clear, and he believes that instead of exchanging views with the emperor, it is better to directly put his ideas into practice.
So how do you put it into practice?
Quite simply, revise the edict.
Wan Yanliang asked this Bachelor Zhang to wave his pen and directly revised the content of the edict.
All the contents of the emperor's formulation were deleted, and all his so-called insights were added.
The edict was changed, but the last payment was still the name of the emperor himself.
Zhang Jun image).
Once the edict was completed, Mr. Zhang did not delay any longer, and went to the palace to find the emperor to review the edict.
The emperor took the edict and looked at it, and found that the paper was still paper, and the words were still words, but the content on it was completely different from what he had dictated before.
The emperor immediately asked, what is going on, is this my mistake in memory, or did you write it wrongly.
Mr. Zhang said, you are not mistaken, and I am not wrong, the content of the edict has indeed been changed, but it was not me who changed it, but your younger brother Wan Yanliang asked me to change it.
We have to admire the courage of Mr. Zhang.
He really shouldn't have asked Wan Yanliang to revise this edict.
In the era of feudal imperialism, the emperor, as the lord of the world, has always been the existence of the same, whether the emperor's words and deeds, orders, or edicts of this system, once issued, there is absolutely no possibility of changing.
Who can correct the emperor? Who would dare to correct the emperor?
Even if he is an important minister of the military state, the emperor's relatives and relatives are perfect, and the act of changing the emperor's edict without authorization is also a great offense.
Today you revise the edict for me, will you still be the emperor of the world for me tomorrow?
But the strange thing is that after hearing such a big event, the emperor just laughed it off and ignored it anymore.
But of course, everything will not be calm, Master Zhang knelt under His Royal Highness, and obviously saw the emperor's clenched fist, which had already revealed green muscles.
That is, from this day on, the emperor is like a different person.
In the past, the emperor had a gentle temperament, was determined to rule, treated the people with generosity and kindness, and treated the ministers politely and courteously, but now, the emperor indulges in pleasure all day long, drinks all day long, and as long as he is drunk, his temperament will inevitably change drastically, and he will kill people under the pretext of killing people.
The emperor is very particular about killing, not killing ministers and ministers, but killing relatives of the emperor.
The emperor's younger brothers, Wanyan Yuan and Wanyan Chara, were brutally killed, and even the empress Pei Manshi was executed by the emperor.
Empress Pei Man's image).
Everyone is panicking, and no one knows if such bad luck will fall on their heads tomorrow.
The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.
But now you don't want your ministers to die, you want your relatives to die.
Wan Yan Liang panicked, as the emperor's cousin, firstly, his relationship with the emperor cannot be regarded as too far, and secondly, he is an important minister of the court who holds great power, and he is usually arrogant and domineering, and it is difficult not to be targeted.
The royal nobles around him fell one after another, and this feeling of waiting for death must not be very good for Wan Yanliang.
Under this uneasy mood, Wan Yanliang finally decided to take risks and play big tickets.
How to play with a big ticket?
Quite simply, since you don't want to die under the emperor's butcher's knife, there is only one way to go, and that is:
Kill the emperor and become the emperor yourself.
Just do it, Wan Yanliang is not only a theoretician, but also a doer.
He immediately united a group of clan ministers who were dissatisfied with the emperor on weekdays, attacked the palace at night, and actually killed the emperor who drank every day and was drunk at night.
Yes, killing the king, it's that simple.
I think that in recent years, some mainstream historians and ** scholars have described those palace coups and the seizure of kings as too complicated.
A storm of coup d'état to seize power often seems to take years of hard work and painstaking management, as well as countless plans and orchestrations, to be realized.
But in fact, the way to kill the emperor may be very simple, it only takes a moment for the sword to fall.
Or, Jin Xizong's fate was actually doomed, when he began to decide to butcher the knife inward and kill his relatives, history had already written the ending of betrayal and separation for him.
Historically, the death of the emperor, whether it was a normal death or a horizontal death, would inevitably shake the whole country, grief the officials, and cry of the people, but as soon as Yan Yan died, the Jin Dynasty was all relieved.
But the ministers seemed to be relieved a little early.
Comrade Wan Yan Liang, who took over the throne by killing the emperor, seems to be a person who is even more than Xizong Wan Yan Liang.
The throne) Wan Yan Liang just sat on the bloody throne, and immediately began to make his inaugural speech:
"I have three aspirations, national events, all of which I have come from, one also; The handsome master is far away, and he insists on his monarch and asks the guilt in the front, and the second is also; Regardless of intimacy, it is as beautiful as possible in the world and a wife, three also. "- "Golden History".The testimonial is very long, but the summary is very simple, the emperor said, I have three ideals, the first ideal is that I hope that I can be fully responsible for the major affairs of the country, and no one else can interfere.
The second ideal is to lead an expedition to destroy the Western Xia first, and then the Southern Song Dynasty, so as to fulfill the long-cherished wish of the ancestors of the past dynasties to level the four seas and dominate the world.
To be honest, these first two ideals are not very problematic.
Not only is it not a big problem, but it is a very reasonable ideal.
As emperors, centralization is their most basic standard, and the emperor wants all kinds of power to grasp at one hand, which is understandable.
And expanding the territory and making contributions are the common characteristics of most outstanding emperors.
The emperor's problem lies in his third ideal.
What ideal?
The beauties of the world, whether they are folk women or the ladies of royal families and noble families, as long as I like them, I must get them all.
Yes, only children make choices, adults do.
Moreover, in the process of realizing the ideal, the emperor had a large deviation in the steps and sequence.
Jin Dynasty) It stands to reason that as the emperor, he should first strengthen the imperial power, stabilize the government (i.e., Ideal 1), and then lead the six divisions to go out to open up the territory (i.e., Ideal 2), and finally achieve fame and push the country to a powerful and prosperous era, and then consider these things to expand the harem (i.e., Ideal 3), but the emperor put the cart before the horse, and began to study how to enjoy it without waiting for the start of work.
Folk women are easy to say, the emperor grabbed it, but the ladies in the royal family are really a little troublesome.
First, some of these female dependents are their close relatives, and secondly, some female dependents are married and have become wives, and the emperor wants to occupy them, which is reasonable, which is really not suitable.
But the emperor doesn't care about that, as long as he likes it, he will definitely grab it, and if he doesn't obey, he will kill the whole family first.
Friends, there are two hatreds in the world, taking his wife and killing his father, and he has taken up all of them.
We really can't understand the behavior of this throne.
Obviously, he was also the victim under the emperor's butcher's knife, why did he become the emperor himself, and resolutely raised the butcher's knife?
It seems that power can really completely change a person.
The experience of the previous car and the division of the rear car, the emperor did not learn the same.
* performance, he may not be as good as the previous emperor Xizong, but when it comes to brutality, he has a top trick and is unyielding.
In the sixth year of Zhengde, 1161 A.D.
This year, calculated according to the Ganzhi chronology, is the year of Xinsi.
Across the sea, the 80th emperor of Japan, Emperor Takakura was born, he is a famous amorous emperor in Japanese history, and in Japanese folk, he and a group of concubines love stories have been circulated.

In the northern steppe, a Mongolian girl named Erti was born, and in the future, she would marry a world-famous man, and this man's name was Genghis Khan.
It was also in this year that the Jin Dynasty emperor Wan Yan Liang was killed by his long-standing disgruntled subordinates on the way to the Southern Song Dynasty at the age of forty.
But it makes sense.
To be born cruel is to be burdened by cruelty.
If you are a murderer, you will be killed by a sexual. **10,000 Fans Incentive Plan
