It's just that the history Zhao Jun told was fragmented, and he didn't sort out the complete historical process with Yan Shu, so the information Yan Shu got now was incomplete, and he could only get some intermittent historical news.
For example, after Yan Shu, the Northern Song Dynasty was followed by the Southern Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty was followed by the Yuan Dynasty, then the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Republic of China and New China.
But he had no idea what major events had taken place there.
He had no idea when the Jingkang Incident happened, the specific details, or what Song Huizong, Song Qinzong, Song Gaozong and others did to trigger the Jingkang Incident.
no way.
Yan Shu could only try his best to provide some guidance and let him take the initiative to talk about history, but he did not dare to directly participate in Zhao Jun's discussion of history.
He was not clear about the history after the Renzong Dynasty. What if he said something wrong and was suspected?
So I can only make a record for now.
In the afternoon, the ministers, who had digested the knowledge gained for half a day, gathered again in Guanjia Hall.
"The information we have now is as follows. Everyone already knows what happened before the Guanjia Dynasty. After the Guanjia Dynasty, the successors were Song Yingzong Zhao Shu, the son of Zhao Yunrang, Song Shenzong Zhao Xu, Song Zhezong Zhao Xu, Song Huizong Zhao Ji, and Song Qinzong Zhao Huan."
Inside Guanjia Hall, Yan Shu held up a record sheet and read, "The father and son, Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan, were incompetent and foolish, leading to the Jingkang Incident, the Jin army's advance upon the city walls, and the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty. Zhao Ji's ninth son, Zhao Gou, then marched south to Hangzhou in the eastern Jiangnan region and established the Southern Song Dynasty. The Southern Song, which lasted for 152 years and saw nine emperors, was finally destroyed by the rising Mongols in the north, ultimately bringing about the fall of the Great Song Dynasty!"
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, we don't need to worry about what happens in the Southern Song Dynasty. The most urgent task now is to develop national strength and strengthen ourselves so that the Song Dynasty can avoid the recurrence of the Jingkang Humiliation in the future."
Fan Zhongyan said.
"Um."
Zhao Zhen nodded, but also said: "But we can't just ignore it. If we can understand the development of future generations and learn from their experiences and lessons, we can avoid many detours."
"I heard Zhao Jun say that the power of science and technology is infinite, and only by developing the industrial revolution can the country's strength surge forth."
"But who knows that?"
"It seems we can only talk about it after Zhao Jun regains his sight."
"It should be soon. So, are we just going to sit around and wait? Why don't we plan the tea making process? That way, when Zhao Jun regains his sight, he won't have to hand the job over to him. If we don't do anything, he'll blame us for being useless."
"But speaking of which, do we really want to leave future national affairs to him? It's true that Zhao Jun is from the future, but he has no status and didn't come from an imperial examination system. How can he take on such an important responsibility?"
Everyone talked about it. This was the doubt raised by Deputy Prime Minister Song Shou.
Zhao Zhen pondered, "Zhao Jun claims to be one of the top graduates in the nation. I see his insights are truly extraordinary, and many of his proposals are quite novel. Whether he can handle state affairs or not is fine. Aren't there a few gentlemen who can look after him?"
"Yes, although we are old, since he is the prime minister, it is not a problem for us to help him check and approve it. Let's first spread the Jiaozi in Bianliang, and then recruit wealthy merchants to discuss these matters. What do you think?"
Wang Zeng said.
"Prime Minister Wang's words make sense."
Several people looked at each other, and then suddenly laughed, although it was inevitable that it would be unwise to entrust such national affairs to a young man in his twenties.
But with these prime ministers helping Zhao Jun to keep a check behind the scenes, there would be no mistakes no matter what.
The literati of the Song Dynasty have always had the courage to reform.
"Um."
Lu Yijian also said, "Although the Jiaozi Shop failed in Shu, it would have been beneficial to the country if it had been successful. And as Zhao Jun said, later banks evolved from the Jiaozi Shops of the Song Dynasty, to the money shops and silver banks of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and finally to the Bank of China. This shows that this thing is indeed necessary for the country. As for the question of Zhao Jun's identity..."
Initially, he suggested taking a long-term approach, perhaps waiting until Zhao Jun regained his sight, but Zhao Zhen had already made the decision to pilot the project in Bianliang, which was a completely different matter, so he began to support it.
"This is easy."
Yan Shu laughed. "There are people who forge the Jidou Book and the 'Public Verification' to commit crimes. But if it's the Jidou Book and the 'Public Verification' produced by the government, can it still be called a forgery? They are genuine goods. It all depends on whether the government wants to admit them into the imperial family."
"Jidou Ce" is the household registration book from the Tang and Song dynasties, which is the household registration system of later generations, and can also be said to be a household registration book.
Because in ancient times, ordinary people might never leave their registered place of residence in their entire lives, at most they would go to the county town for a stroll, so they only needed to register at their registered place of residence, and no additional certificates were required.
However, if you traveled across states and went to other places outside the county, you had to go to the government to apply for a "public verification". This thing is like an ID card. It not only records your basic information, but also your portrait, handprints, etc. Only the seal of the local government is valid. If it is forged, you will be sentenced.
However, those who commit crimes forge the "Jidou Book" and the public verification. No matter how real they make it, it is still fake. But when the government records your identity information, it is real. Even if your life experience is fabricated, it is as real as it can be and is not a forgery.
Therefore, the identity issue is very easy to solve. The only problem is whether Zhao Zhen wants to enroll him into the imperial clan. If he does, it will be much more troublesome. He needs to go through the Zongzheng Temple and be issued with a clan jade disc. He will definitely not be able to hide it from the Grand Zongzheng...
After hearing Yan Shu's words, Zhao Zhen pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Forget about enrolling him in the imperial clan. Although he claims to be a descendant of our Zhao family, this cannot be completely confirmed. Moreover, the current Grand Master of the Imperial Clan..."
