Between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, the Jin people successively supported two puppet regimes, Pseudo Chu and Pseudo Qi, the emperors of these two puppet regimes, Zhang Bangchang and Liu Yu, what happened in the end?
In the second year of Jingkang of Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty (1127), the people of Jin destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, and abducted Hui, Emperor Qin and all the imperial relatives in Bianliang (Kaifeng) in Tokyo, only Emperor Huizong's ninth son King Kang Zhao Gou was spared because he was not in the capital.
The Jin people destroyed the Song Dynasty, it was really not a long-term plan, not long ago, the two of them were good enough to wear a pair of pants, and they worked together to destroy the Liao State. In the process of destroying Liao, Jin Guo saw the vulnerability of the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers were like naughty bear children, repeatedly playing clever, not keeping promises, and playing with others, and the Jurchen nobles were so angry that they beat him back. The Great Song Dynasty had no ability and was blindly provoked, it was too unbeaten, and he didn't play twice, and he was actually destroyed.
The Jurchens destroyed the Song Dynasty in Pingliao, and suddenly had a vast territory, and happiness came too suddenly, and they didn't have time to prepare. With the population and national strength of the Jin State at that time, they did not have the ability to effectively manage such a large area of land, and they were not very interested in this land, they were only interested in the children of the wealthy silk of the Great Song Dynasty, they only needed to support a puppet regime to collect money and pay tribute for them and loot the land. Who will be this puppet emperor? The nobles of the Jin Kingdom said that as long as they were not from the Zhao Song family, they would be fine, and the conscience of the Zhao family was greatly broken.
So the people of the Jin Kingdom asked the ** of the Great Song Dynasty, the representatives of the monks and Taoists, and the figures with heads and faces from all parties to vote for the emperor, and these people unanimously elected Zhang Bangchang. Zhang Bangchang was a Dazai in the late Northern Song Dynasty, he was really not a traitor, he didn't surrender, he didn't **, he just advocated peaceThe reason for his victory was that he had a good temper, a good temper towards the emperor, a good temper towards his colleagues, and a good temper towards the people of the Jin Kingdom.
Temperamental people also have a bull temper on this kind of major issue of right and wrong, Zhang Bangchang first cried and fainted, and then he wanted to commit suicide by hitting the pillar, and then pretended to be sick, and did not eat for four days and four nights, resolutely not to be this pseudo-emperor. In the end, it was the Jin people who threatened to massacre the city if he was not right. Zhang Bangchang for the lives of the people in the city, but also under the unanimous appeal of the military and people of the city, finally had no choice but to accept the appointment of the Great Chu Emperor, it is said that he cried to complete the enthronement ceremony.
Zhang Bangchang really didn't regard himself as an emperor, he didn't call him "I", he only called "Yu"; Do not issue an "edict", only call it a "handwritten letter", do not let the minister call him "Your Majesty", only let him be called "Xianggong", do not work in the main hall, do not sit facing south, do not set up the year name, and the palace gate of Ouchi is pasted with the seal of "Minister Zhang Bangchang is respectfully sealed".
After taking office, Zhang Bangchang immediately went to negotiate with the people of Jinguo, asking them to stop the looting of Kaifeng City and not to destroy the temple of the Zhao family.
The people of the Jin Kingdom returned satisfied, with the Second Emperor Huiqin as a hostage and countless gold and silver treasures. As soon as the Jin people withdrew, Zhang Bangchang immediately took off his imperial robe and found out from the people that Song Zhezong's deposed queen Meng, Meng was the former sister-in-law of Song Huizong, because he was deposed, so he was not in the list of royal family members who were taken captive. Zhang Bangchang asked Empress Dowager Meng to listen to the government and retire as a courtier. Empress Dowager Meng has been lonely and cold for more than 20 years, and a big pie fell from the sky, so I can't thank Zhang Bangchang more. Empress Dowager Meng issued an edict to enthrone King Kang Zhao Gou, and it was her edict that gave Zhao Gou's title of emperor legitimacy.
Many of Zhang Bangchang's ministers were opposed to the return of power to the Zhao family and analyzed the benefits and disadvantages for him, but Zhang Bangchang was a timid and cowardly honest man, and he didn't want to bear the infamy of a rebellious minister and thief, so he still stubbornly gave up his life. He found Zhao Gou and offered the jade seal, "lying on the ground and crying and asking for death", saying, "So those who follow the Jin people to push the wearer, want to be expedient for a time when the country is in trouble, dare to have him?" He repeatedly explained that he really had no choice, but in order to solve the urgent needs of the country, he watched the stall for the Zhao family for a few days.
Zhao Gou was overjoyed, pretended to comfort Zhang Bangchang, and said: I understand, I really don't blame you for this. He also reciprocated Li Difeng and Zhang Bangchang as the prince and prince of the county. Zhang Bangchang's emperor served for a total of thirty-three days.
However, in just half a year, Zhao Gou finally fabricated a crime, saying that he had a life style problem, and gave him suicide, Zhang Bangchang died at the age of forty-six. Several people who had been vigorously elected to Zhang Bangchang as emperor were also killed one after another.
After being at the mercy of the Jin people, and willing to be at the mercy of the Song Dynasty, how can a person who is always at the mercy of others have a good end
Let's talk about Zhang Bangchang, let's talk about Liu Yu.
Liu Yu, is the puppet emperor of Qi supported by the people of Jin. When Jingkang was in trouble, Liu Yu was so frightened that he abandoned the official and fled, and after Zhao Gou ascended the throne, Liu Yu wanted to come back to be an official, how could it be so easy? Liu Yu asked people everywhere, after an operation, he got a position as the prefect of Jinan, Liu Yu thought that Jinan was too close to Jinguo, too dangerous, and didn't want to go, so he asked to change places as officials, but was rejected by the governor at the time, and even sprayed a derogatory and degrading place, Liu Yu had no choice, so he had to take office with a stomach of resentment and scolding.
When the Jin army went south again, Liu Yu killed the defenders of Jinan City and surrendered the city. Liu Yu used a lot of gold and silver treasures to stammer and lobby the high-level of the Jin State, wanting to make an emperor to be the emperor, and the high-level of the Jin State felt that this idea was quite reliableThey needed to build a barrier between the Song and Jin as a buffer, so in 1129 they canonized Liu Yu as emperor of the Great Qi. The territory of the Puppet Qi included the Central Plains south of the Yellow River and Shaanxi.
After Liu Yu became emperor, he conscripted the people to increase his strength, and in order to show loyalty to the Jin people, he also repeatedly launched wars of aggression against the Southern Song Dynasty, but was bravely counterattacked by Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and other Southern Song generals LinkedIn, especially Yue Fei, who defeated him and looked for teeth everywhere. Liu Yu's performance made the master of the Jin Kingdom very dissatisfied, and the emperor was not good at it, and he was scolded by the master of the Jin State every day like a grandson. In 1137, the Jin people deposed Liu Yu, who had been emperor for eight years, on the grounds of "governing the country without form". However, the Jin people did not kill him, but changed him to the king of Shu and moved to live in Linhuang (now Chifeng, Inner Mongolia), and in 1146, Liu Yu died of illness at the age of seventy-four.
Liu Yu has always been an enemy of the Southern Song Dynasty, running to the black one by one, and being willing to be a traitor, which is of course related to his low character, but Zhao Gou's decision to return to him cannot but be said to be a factor, "What about Zhang Bangchang?" Now that it has come to this, what can the husband say? ”Liu Yu saw Zhang Bangchang's fate and learned Zhao Gou's viciousness, which was also the reason why he did not dare to return to the Song Dynasty until he died.
