Kou Zhun, born on July 4, 19961year (August 27), was a scholar in Song Taizong Taiping Xingguo for five years (980). His integrity, repeated persuasion, was gradually valued by the emperor. During the reign of Emperor Taizong, officials participated in political affairs. After Kou Zhun acceded to the throne, he worked in the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of War, and served as a secretary for three times. In the first year of Jingdezhen (1004), he and Bi, both counselors, were both prime ministers (the same as Pingzhang). That winter, the Khitan invaded the Song Dynasty and surrounded Yingzhou and other Hebei areas, which shocked the ruling and opposition parties. Kou Zhun advocated the true clan affiliation and opposed the southward migration. After Zhenzong arrived in Kuizhou (now Puyang, Henan), the morale of the army gradually stabilized, and then he shot and killed the pioneer of the Liao army, thus concluding the "Kuizhou Alliance".

In the second year of Jingdezhen, he was promoted to assistant minister of Zhongshu and minister of industry. In three years, Wang Qinruo and others pushed him out and resigned. In the first year of Tianxi (10 17), he was reinstated as prime minister, but later he was excluded by Ding Wei, Song Dynasty and others because he participated in the power struggle in the imperial court. He was exiled to Leizhou (now Haikang, Guangdong), Hengzhou (now Hengyang, Hunan) and other places, and died there on September 7th on1023 (65438+1October 24th). There's Cory Gong Ji.
