Section 3 Chongxi’s increase in coins caused by land grab turmoil

Go down to Zhongnan Mountain and pass through Husi Mountain, where people stay and buy wine

Tang Dynasty: Li Bai

At dusk from the foot of Bishan Mountain, the mountain moon follows people back home.

But looking at the path I came from, I saw a faint green sky.

Together with Tian's family, childhood blossoms.

Green bamboo enters the secluded path, and green radish touches the clothes.

Let's take a break to chat and drink wine together.

The long song sings in the pines and the wind, and the songs are all over the river and the stars are sparse.

I am drunk and you are happy again, and we forget all about it together.

Yelu Zong really wanted to achieve great results, but he had no choice but to let his mother control the government after he came to power. It was only now that he regained the imperial power, but he did not encounter a good opportunity for him to establish a great achievement.

He waited for a long time, and finally he got an opportunity. Due to the continuous war between the Song Dynasty and Xixia, the Song Dynasty was retreating steadily. Seeing that the Song Dynasty was so weak, he wanted to take advantage of the situation and make a fortune.

In order to become famous, Yelu Zongzhen made a fuss about the ten counties in Guannan. These ten places originally belonged to the Central Plains Dynasty. Later, Shi Jingtang ceded the 16 Youyun Prefectures, and these places also belonged to the Khitan. Later, Shizong of the Later Zhou Dynasty

Chai Rong launched the Northern Expedition and recaptured these places. The Khitan emperor at that time was Yelu Jing. When he saw that after Chai Rong retreated, he didn't care what land was lost, as long as he was relieved of danger, he would be very happy. From then on,

These ten places returned to the Central Dynasty.

After Yelu Longxu succeeded to the throne, with the assistance of his mother Xiao Chuo, he fought all the way to the city of Chanzhou. Although he failed to get these ten places back, he finally signed the Chanyuan Alliance and gained a lot of benefits.

Yelu Zong really wanted to learn from his grandfather Yelu Longxu. He also wanted to send troops to attack the Song Dynasty by asking for the banner of the three passes and ten counties. But he was unsure, so he went to the retired old prime minister Zhang Jian and asked him

Asked for suggestions. Zhang Jian said that to get back these pieces of land, there was no need to raise troops and fight. He only needed to send an envoy to the Song Dynasty to negotiate, and that would be enough.

Yelu Zong was really elated after hearing this, and personally wrote a letter to Song Renzong Zhao Zhen, expressing his intention to return to these ten places.

In addition, Li Yuanhao of Xixia had already surrendered to the Khitan, but the Song Dynasty suddenly launched an attack on Xixia, which made the Khitan very uneasy.

After Yelu Zongzhen finished writing this letter, the Song Dynasty spies planted around him stole the manuscript. So before the Khitan's credentials reached the Song Dynasty, Song Renzong Zhao Zhen already knew about it.

Therefore, Song Renzong Zhao Zhen convened ministers early to discuss countermeasures. When the Khitan envoy came to the Song Dynasty with credentials, the Song Dynasty put forward three opinions: land could not be ceded, marriage could be made, and annual coins could be increased.

After Yelvzong really knew about it, he decided to put some pressure on the Song Dynasty and issued an order for the southern expedition. After the Song Dynasty received the news, Song Renzong was shocked. He immediately sent envoys to Khitan to negotiate the land claim. At the same time, the Song Dynasty also did

In preparation for the war, heavy troops were mobilized at the border between the two countries, and troops and horses were trained every day to build momentum.

Seeing this situation, Yelv Zongzhen felt even more unsure. Yelv Zongzhen summoned the envoy of the Song Dynasty and expressed his thoughts again. The envoy of the Song Dynasty, Fu Bi, did not change his expression, was not afraid in the face of danger, and argued with reason. He also said that youyun 16 states

It was originally the land of the Central Plains, and we didn't ask for it from you, so we should maintain the status quo and be safe on our own.

Seeing that the Song Dynasty was so tough, Yelu Zongzhen decided to take a step back and allow the Song Dynasty to implement their first two plans, to make peace and increase the annual currency.

At this time, the Song Dynasty was dissatisfied again. After discussions between Song Renzong and the ministers, they felt that if they agreed to the two requests of the Khitan at the same time, wouldn't it prove that they were weak and vulnerable and would be looked down upon by the Khitan people? So, wouldn't it prove that they were weak and vulnerable to bullying?

, they changed their previous attitude and stated that they would not increase the annual coins if they wanted to marry. If the Khitan could persuade Li Yuanhao to surrender to the Song Dynasty again, the Song Dynasty promised to donate 200,000 coins to the Khitan every year, otherwise it would only give 100,000 coins.

Yelvzong was really helpless. He decided to agree to the Song Dynasty's request to donate 200,000 coins to the Khitan. However, in order to gain psychological comfort, he asked to add "Xian" to the oath. The Song Dynasty was determined not to agree to this request. At this time

, Yan Shu, a famous poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, stood up and suggested using the word "Na".

After listening to Yan Shu's suggestion, Song Renzong Zhao Zhen was very satisfied. Moreover, it was not difficult for the Song Dynasty for the Khitan to ask for 200,000 yuan from the Song Dynasty, because the annual income of the Song Dynasty could now reach tens of millions.

This transaction came to a successful conclusion, and both parties shook hands again to make peace. This incident occurred during the Zhen Chongxi reign of Yelu Zong, so it was also known as the "Chongxi Increasing Coins" in history.
