The demise of any dynasty in history will inevitably lead to an emperor who is fatuous, unethical, and brings disaster to the country and the people. At the same time, there must be shameless officials who commit unjust, false, and wrongful convictions and harm others and themselves. Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty Zhao Ji and his traitor Cai Jing. In the late Northern Song Dynasty, Cai Jing lived in the officialdom for decades. For nearly 20 years, he was monopolized by others. During this period, Cai Jing helped form a political party, which brought trouble to Chao Gang, mistakes to the country, and harm to the people. People all over the world believed that he was the chief culprit who deceived the emperor and harmed the people. Song Huizong was the emperor. It can be said that he was politically weak and confused, economically poor and confused, militarily, especially when it came to resisting foreign aggression, and in private life the most confused emperor. All this chaos is related to Cai Jing, the central decision-maker. This bastard is full of doubts, beliefs, doubts, replies, and doubts about Cai Jing. Finally, he was convinced. In the end, the nomads crossed the river, the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, and he was trapped in the north. Cai Jing, a native of the Northern Song Dynasty, is said to be from Xianyou, Fujian. When Song Shenzong was in power, he and his younger brother became scholars together, entered the officialdom, first became local officials, and later became Zhongshu scholars. He changed the name of Longtuge to Kaifeng Mansion. It can be said that Cai Jing has been studying the secrets of being an official in depth since the day he became an official. Therefore, Cai Jing has become a typical speculator. This is most obvious in his official career. Regarding the reform issues of the Song Dynasty, he fully exposed his repeated cheating, shameless speculation, lack of faith, and failure to put national interests first. When Wang Anshi was in Song Shenzong, he was a loyal supporter of the new law in order to be appreciated. After Wang Anshi died, Sima Guang came to power and became prime minister. The first point is to order the repeal of the new law implemented by Wang Anshi. The immunity from service law that was taken away at that time was abolished and the previous military officer law was restored. Moreover, Sima Guang also asked all parts of the country to complete this task within five days. But at that time, many county and city local officials said that the time was too short, the task was too urgent, it would be difficult to implement, and it might not be completed. However, only Cai Jing actively completed this task. So on the surface, he was a member of the Sima Guang faction at this time, opposing the new law and supporting the old law. In this way, he was appreciated by Sima Guang, was called into the court as an official by Sima Guang, and was reused by Sima Guang. Therefore, he has a high reputation among scholars. When Cai Jing was satisfied that he would be further reused, officials from the Yushitai and the imperial court saw through Cai Jing's despicable qualities and opportunistic behavior, and they rose up to impeach him, and Cai Jing was demoted. Cai Jing, who was flexible and flexible, continued to show his loyalty to the conservatives and was eventually promoted to bachelor of Longtuge. When Song Zhezong was in office, Zhang Dun was the prime minister. He was a supporter of the new law, which he restored. Because Zhang Dun wanted to abolish the Police Officer Law and restore Wang Anshi's exemption law, he was worried about being resisted by ministers at the court, so he prepared to establish a council. While hesitating, Cai Jing lost no time in making suggestions: "It can be implemented as it was during the Xining period, so why set up another council?" Cai Jing's words made Zhang Dun determined to abolish the army officers and establish a employment system. There is no doubt that Cai Jing was appreciated by Zhang Dun again. Therefore, at this time, Cai changed from opposing the new law to supporting the new law. This change was thorough. After he came to power, he not only fully restored all the new laws of Wang Anshi's reform, but also pushed these practices to a new level. Wang Anshi probably never imagined that his political executor would be Cai Jing. For a pragmatic and righteous person like Cai Jing, political views are not important. The important thing is that he can enter the body and maximize his own benefits. However, soon after Cai Jing came to power, Song Zhezong died and Song Huizong became the emperor. At this time, Cai Jing's reputation for being good at speculation was too bad in the court, so Cai Jing was impeached by the courtiers, and the Song Dynasty demoted him to Juhang. At this time, Cai Jing was not idle either. He was looking for
Finally, the opportunity came. Song Huizong loved to collect calligraphy and paintings, and Song Huizong Zhao Ji was also a very famous calligrapher. History has to say that as an emperor, Song Huizong was not good at politics, but his poetry and paintings were first-rate. Moreover, his calligraphy is unique and is known as "skinny". It can be seen that his calligraphy and painting art is superb, so Song Huizong was an emperor with high artistic achievements at that time. However, this Song Huizong was very poor as an emperor.
As soon as Song Qinzong came to power, on the advice of his ministers, Cai Jing was executed and sent to Lingnan. It is said that because Cai Jing was so unpopular, he was scolded by the people along the way and no one would sell him food. Even he said, "I lost my heart and reached this point." Cai Jing's fate was tragic. Of course he asked for it. It is said that when Cai Jing was exiled, he took a lot of property with him, as well as three favored daughters, one named Murong, one named Xing, and one named Wu. When Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty exiled Cai Jing, Kaifeng City was surrounded by the imperial edict of Jin Bing. They named Cai Jing's three favorites, and the Qin sect sent people to Bozhou to replace them. On the occasion of parting, the old Cai Jing burst into tears. Every year he would write a poem about loving peach blossoms, mangroves and the spring breeze. Now, let's get out of other people's hands. Who would remember that this old man has not yet been commended? What Cai Jing didn't expect was that it would be difficult for him to buy a meal, a dish, or a cup of tea on the road thousands of miles away. There is no place to rest. When I arrived in Tanzhou, I could only live in a dilapidated temple in the south of the city. He was sick, sleepy, hungry and cold, and starved to death, ending his sinful life.
