Emperor, painter and calligrapher of Northern Song Dynasty in China. Eleven sons of Song Shenzong, the brother of Zhezong. Zhezong died of illness, and the queen mother made him emperor. He was the eighth emperor of the Song Dynasty (reigned1100 ~1125), and was captured and sentenced for 25 years. He died at the age of 54 and was buried in Yongyou Mausoleum (now 35 miles southeast of Shaoxing County, Zhejiang Province).
During his reign, Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Gao Qiu and other treacherous court officials presided over the state affairs, plundered the wealth of the people, and were extravagant and dissolute. Establish an article manufacturing bureau dedicated to the royal family. They also searched around for exotic flowers and stones and transported them to Kaifeng, called "Flower Stone Class", to build Yanfu Palace and Genyue. He believed in Taoism, calling himself "the founder of Taoism, Emperor Daojun", built a large number of temples, set up 26 Taoist officials and paid Taoist salaries. During his reign, rebellion led by Fang La and Song Jiang broke out. In the second year of Xuanhe (1 120), he sent envoys to make peace with the rulers and attack Liao. In the seventh year of Xuanhe, Jin Jun went south to attack the Song Dynasty. He was transferred to Zhao Huan (Qinzong) and claimed to be the emperor's father. In the second year of Jingkang (1 127), he was captured by Jin Bing together with Qin Zong. Later, he was imprisoned in the north and died in Wu Guocheng (now Yilan, Heilongjiang). During his twenty-six years in office, he was incompetent in governing the country, but his artistic talent was quite high. Calligraphy is called "thin gold body", and handed down paintings include "Furong Golden Rooster" and "Late Autumn by the Pool", which can also be used as poems.
Posthumous title of Song Huizong is a filial emperor who is integrated with body and mind, a sage and virtuous. I really don't know how the etiquette officials in the Southern Song Dynasty came up with such a pile of compliments. At first glance, this pile of posthumous title, people who don't know history, may think that Hui Zong is a benevolent emperor.
Song Huizong also believed in Taoism, built a large number of temples, claimed to be the founder of Daojun Emperor, and often invited Taoist priests to tell fortune. His birthday was May 5th, and the Taoist thought it was unlucky, so he changed his name to10+00. His zodiac sign is a dog, so killing dogs is forbidden in Bianjing City.
1 125, 10 years, the Jin army invaded the south on a large scale, and the East Route Army led by the commander of the Jin army took Bianjing directly under the command of Guo, a rebel in the Northern Song Dynasty. Song Huizong received the newspaper, hastily ordered the cancellation of Hua Shigang, and wrote a letter to the guilty person, admitting some of his mistakes, in order to save the hearts of the people. Nomads from the army marched in haste, approaching Bianjing. Huizong was afraid and anxious, holding the minister's hand and saying, "I didn't expect Jin people to treat me like this." Before I finished, I choked and fainted in front of the bed. After being rescued, he reached for a pen and paper and wrote the words "Pass on the Crown Prince". In 65438+February, he announced his abdication, claiming to be "the emperor's father" and giving way to Zhao Huan (Qin Zong). Cai Jing, Tong Guan and other thieves fled to Mengcheng, Bozhou, Anhui (now Mengcheng, Anhui). In April of the following year, the nomads from the siege of Bianjing were repelled by Li Gang and returned to the north, and Song Huizong returned to Bianjing.
At the end of a.d. 1 126 leap 1 1, the nomads from the army went south again. 65438+February 65438+May 5, Bianjing was breached, Di Chin abolished Song Huizong, and Zhao Huan was Shu Ren. 1 127 at the end of March, escort Hui Di and Qin, together with thousands of empresses, royalty and officials, as well as musicians, skilled craftsmen, French drivers, ceremonial ceremonies, crown costumes, ritual vessels, astronomical instruments, treasures and toys, imperial books and maps of the world's state capitals, to the north of Bianjing. So it happened in Jingkang period, which is called "Jingkang Change" in history.
It is said that when Song Huizong heard that the treasure was looted, he didn't care. When he heard that the Royal Library was also robbed, he sighed. Song Huizong was humiliated on the way to be escorted. First, the love princess Wang Wanrong was forcibly taken away by Jinjiang. Then, after arriving in the capital of Xu Jin Guo, he was ordered to wear mourning clothes with Zhao Huan and visit the temple in Akuta, Jin Taizu, which means that Di Chin dedicated the prisoners to his ancestors. Later, Song Huizong was humiliated by Di Chin and imprisoned in Hanzhou (now Changtu County, Liaoning Province), and then moved to Wu Guocheng (now yilan county, Heilongjiang Province) to be imprisoned. During his imprisonment, Song Huizong suffered mental torture and wrote many gloomy, sad and desolate poems, such as:
The west wind broke the door all night, and Eden was depressed; Looking back at my hometown, there are no geese flying in the south of the mountain.
However, his remorse was limited to "all the rivers and mountains were mistaken by ministers", and he did not realize that it was his fatuous luxury that led to the end of national subjugation and made him a prisoner. In July of A.D. 1 127, Cao Xun, a courtier, secretly fled Jin to the Southern Song Dynasty and gave him a vest that said, "You (Song Gaozong) come and save your parents." Song Huizong showed these words to the courtiers around him, and all the courtiers cried. Song Huizong cried and exhorted Cao Xun, remembering to tell Emperor Gaozong "Don't forget the pain of my northbound journey", then took out a white gauze handkerchief to wipe his tears, and then gave it to Cao Xun, saying, "Let the emperor (Emperor Gaozong) know that I miss my old country and shed tears."
Song Huizong was imprisoned for nine years. 1/kloc-0 died in Wu Guocheng on Jiazi Day in April, 35. Jin Xizong buried him in Guangning, Henan Province (near Luoyang City, Henan Province). On 11August 421day, Song Jin transported his body back to Lin 'an (now Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province) as agreed, and was buried in the mausoleum.
During Song Huizong's reign, he extensively collected antiques, calligraphy and painting, expanded the Hanlin Painting Academy, and asked civil servants to edit books such as Xuanhe Pu Shu, Xuanhe Painting Spectrum and Xuanhe Bo Gu Picture, which greatly promoted and advocated the art of painting. Playing the bomb, painting and calligraphy, singing and lyrics are all good. I have a lot of works in my life, all of which have been lost. The existing paintings include Furong Golden Rooster, Autumn Night in the Pond, Four Birds and Guixue River. There is a collection of Song Huizong's Ci.
Before he became an emperor, he liked painting and calligraphy, and he was connected with painters, such as Xu and Zhao Lingmi's imperial clan. After he acceded to the throne, he was politically incompetent, but he made great achievements in painting and calligraphy, and made important contributions to the development of China's painting, one of which was his emphasis on and development of the Academy of Painting. In the third year of Chongning (1 104), paintings were established and formally included in the imperial examination to attract painters from all over the world. Painting credits include Buddhism, Taoism, figures, landscapes, birds and animals, flowers and trees, houses and trees, and ancient poems are selected as examination questions. After being admitted, they are divided into "scholar flow" and "miscellaneous flow" according to their identity, living in different places, cultivating and constantly assessing. Those who enter the Academy will be awarded the titles of painting correction, art study, waiting for imperial edict, honouring and painting student. At that time, the status of painters was obviously improved, and both clothing and salary were higher than other artists. With such generous treatment and Hui Zong's guidance and care for the creation of the Academy as a painter, the creation of the Academy in this period was the most prosperous. Under his instruction, the royal collection was also greatly enriched, and the paintings and calligraphy collected in the palace were compiled into Xuanhe Shupu and Xuanhe Huapu, which became important materials for studying the history of ancient painting today.
