Zhao Heng's life is also very bumpy. Before and after, the sons born to his two queens were killed or died. In addition, he is terminally ill and his body is getting weaker and weaker. It is difficult to continue to have children, so Zhao Zhen, he and Li Waner, became the only hope.
When Zhao Zhen was ill, Zhao Heng was worried that there would be no successor to Dasong, so despite his serious illness, he led the minister to Taishan to pray for his son Zhao Zhen without hesitation.
However, Zhao Heng's health was too weak. Coupled with illness, he was finally attacked by the cold at the top of Mount Tai, lost consciousness and finally "died".
A Brief Introduction of Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng
Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng (65438+February 23, 968-1March 23, 022), formerly known as Zhao Dechang, also known as Zhao Xiuyuan and Zhao Yuankan, was the third emperor of the Song Dynasty. He is Song Taizong's third son. Before he ascended the throne, he was named Hanwang, Xiangwang and Shouwang, and was appointed as Kaifeng Fu Yin. In 997, when the Prince ascended the throne, Song Zhenzong was a famous proverb book with its own golden house and its own author Yan Ruyu.
Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng, the third son of Song Taizong, was not born to the Queen and was not the heir to the throne at first. Song Taizong's eldest sons, Prince Zhao Yuan and Zuo Wei, were supposed to be established, but Zhao Yuanzuo later became mentally ill, was injured by illness, set fire to the palace, and was finally abolished.
Emperor Taizong made his second son, Zhao Yuanxuan, a prince, but Zhao Yuanxuan died young. After Zhao Yuannuo's death, Emperor Taizong made his third son, Zhao Dechang, a prince, who lived there for three years (997). Song Taizong died of a recurrence of an arrow wound. Zhao Dechang succeeded to the throne and was renamed Zhao Heng and Song Zhenzong.
