Prime Minister Zhao and Chen were seriously ill, and wrote to themselves: "Ride a dustpan, and the tail will return to the sky, and the mountains and rivers will be strong."

Unscramble the heroic spirit of metaphor people like mountains and rivers.

Story Zhao Ding, Minister of Southern Song Dynasty, was born in poverty, lost his father at the age of four, and grew up under the care and education of his mother. Twenty-one-year-old, admitted to Jinshi. When he was an official, he dared to criticize powerful people. He was appreciated by Prime Minister Wu Min and transferred to Kaifeng.

11In the winter of 25, the northern state of Jin invaded the south. The fall of Taiyuan the following year seriously threatened the security of the Song Dynasty. Song Qinzong, who was fatuous and cowardly, panicked, and quickly called the minister of civil and military affairs to discuss countermeasures.

Some ministers who are afraid of death advocate ceding land and making peace with the state of Jin. Zhao Ding and these ministers have different views. He said: "how can the land left by our ancestors be given to others?" I hope your majesty will never consider this opinion! "

However, Qin Zong was very afraid of Berjinbing and was determined to kneel down and cede great rivers and mountains. When Jin envoys came to negotiate, they demanded that all the land north of the Yellow River be ceded to the State of Jin. Qinzong did not dare to disobey and agreed to 8 Jin J's request.

However, the rulers of the state of Jin were not satisfied. They ordered the troops to continue their descent. At the end of this year, the nomads from Kaifeng arrived at the gates. The timid Qin Zong ran to the camp of the 8 Jin Army to beg for surrender before the 8 Jin Army broke through.

Soon, the commander-in-chief of the nomadic people detained Qin Zong and sent his men into the city to plunder. Then, he captured Qin Zong and his father Hui Zong, and returned to the State of Jin with a large amount of gold and silver he found. The Northern Song Dynasty perished.

Soon, Zhao Gou, the younger brother of Qin Zong, established the Southern Dynasty in Nanjing, which was called Song Gaozu in history. In the early days of Song Gaozu's accession to the throne, a number of hawkish ministers, including Zhao Ding, were appointed.

Former Prime Minister Qin Gui, the leader of the peace faction, was dismissed because of his party affiliation. Zhao Ding was very wary of him and once told people that if he succeeded, there would be no place for us.

Unexpectedly, Qin Gui was appointed as Prime Minister again. He knew that the emperor only wanted to be partial to the south of the Yangtze River, but he didn't really resist the gold, so he tried his best to instigate the emperor to make peace with the whole country. Zhao Ding naturally opposed him. As a result, Qin Gui often spoke ill of Zhao Ding in front of the emperor, which made the emperor gradually lose his trust. Later, the emperor finally demoted him to other places to be an official.

When Zhao Ding left Beijing, Qin Gui hypocritically saw him off. But Zhao Ding didn't appreciate it. He just gave him a contemptuous look, bowed and left. For this reason, I became more jealous, transferred him further and further, and finally came under Zhu.

Cliff. Zhao Ding has lived in Zhu Ya for three years, and his acquaintances are afraid to visit him. Life is very difficult. Knowing his condition, Qin Gui thought that he would not live long, so he told local officials to report to himself every month whether he was still alive.

At the age of sixty-two, Zhao Ding finally became seriously ill. Before he died, he called his son to the bed and said, "Qin Gui insisted on killing me. If I die, he may kill you; I am dead, so I can leave you alone! "

After that, he asked his son to fetch an inscription and write a line on it. I rode two stars, a dustpan and a tail back to the sky, and my spirit existed in this dynasty, as majestic as mountains and rivers. A few days later, Zhao Ding died without food.
