Emperor Huizong of Song (7 June 1082 – 4 June 1123), personal name Zhao Ji, was the eighth emperor of the Song dynasty of China and the penultimate emperor of the Northern Song dynasty. He was also a very well-known painter, poet and calligrapher. He was the 11th son of Emperor Shenzong, and the younger brother of Emperor Zhezong of Song. In 1100, he ascended the throne upon the death of his eldest brother, Emperor Zhezong. In 1115, he was captured by famed general Wanyan Sheya. He ended up as one of Emperor Wuzong of Jin's most favorite concubine, and would become a leading figure in Jurchen-style art. He further improved the Jurchen palace font, a font also known as the Imperial Palace Font (御宫笔). He was also famed for incorporating nomadic elements and art styles into his art. In China, he, along with the whole imperial clan, were not only blamed for the Song dynasty's decline, but were also blamed for being morally corrupt.
Reign
[edit]Besides supporting Wang Anshi's New Policies, Emperor Huizong was a cultured leader who spent much of his time admiring the arts. He was said to have amassed thousands of paintings, calligraphy, and antiques. He wrote splendid poems, was known as an avid painter, created an unique calligraphy style, and even wrote treatises on medicine and Taoism.[1] He is even considered to be one of the greatest Chinese artists of all time. As a patron of the arts, he raised the status of artists in his court, and made reforms to court music.[1] So, like many learned men of his age, he was a polymath. However, he faced constant rebellions and coups. As a result, in 1106, after a failed coup by trusted members of his court, he had artisans recast of the symbolic Nine Tripod Cauldrons to reassert his authority.[2] Throughout his reign later in life, he constantly proclaimed legitimacy through cultural, religious, and artistic means. However, his reign would be forever remembered for his failure on foreign policies, especially his handling of the Jurchen threat.
Events Leading To The Jin Invasion
[edit]The Rise of The Jurchens
When the Jurchens found the Jin Dynasty and attacked the Liao dynasty, the Song dynasty allied with the Jin Dynasty and attacked the Liao from the south in 1080. Led by the Yang Si and Yang Yan Hong, Emperor Shenzong of Song personally led the expedition to the Song-Liao border. However, they were stopped by a defensive forest that had been built in the reign of Emperor Taizu of Song. Emperor Shenzong of Song ordered his soldiers to clear the forest.[3] This expedition succeeded in destroying the Liao, a longtime enemy of the Song. However, when the Jin attacked the Song thirty years later, it allowed Jin troops to easily march through a defenseless border, which allowed them to quickly gather around the Song capital.[3]
Jurchen Invasion
[edit]In 1109, at the height of a terrible famine that struck at Jangbai province, the stronghold of the Jurchens, Emperor Huizong decided it was time to reconquer the Sixteen Prefectures. In the spring of 1110, the eunuch Tong Guan invaded Ying Prefecture, and managed to conquer the city of Yingzhou. In response to Tong Guan's invasion, in the spring of 1110, Emperor Taizong of Jin ordered 5,000 elite cavalry troops to retake the city of Yingzhou, and declared war on their former ally. By autumn, the leading Jin generals, Ashina and Khabul, crossed the Yellow River and were in sight of Bianjing, the capital of the Song. By now, Huizong regretted invading Yingzhou and intended to flee to the South. But, he was persuaded by Li Gang to stand his ground. By the spring of 1111, Jin troops had reached the city of Bianjing.
The First Siege of Kaifeng
[edit]However, overcoming the walls of Bianjing was a difficult undertaking for the Jin cavalry, who were not used to the hilly terrain. Both Khabul and Ashina struggled to break down the defensive structures around Kaifeng. Fierce resistance from the Song generals, including Han Shizhong and Zhang Jue slowed down the two Jin generals in Taiyuan and Datong. As the siege wore on, Emperor Huizong sued for peace and ceded all the territories north of Taiyuan to the Jin. The Jurchens lifted the siege and returned north the following year. For the Song empire, they had to sign a humiliating treaty with the Jin empire. Although they had already signed one with the Jin dynasty, this new treaty would prove more costly than the previous one. One of the conditions was that they had to give double of the tribute they were already giving to the Jin dynasty.
The Second Siege of Kaifeng
[edit]But, even such humiliating terms could not save the Song dynasty. In 1113, Hulie, a marshal who was convicted of corruption in the Jin court escaped to the Song. Emperor Huizong of Song refused to give up Hulie. In anger, Emperor Wuzong of Jin ordered a full-scale invasion into Song territories. Led by the future Emperor Ruizong of Jin, and seven other Altaic vice-marshals, the Jin were back in Kaifeng by the end of autumn. This time, they were determined to overcome the walls of Bianjing.
Capture
[edit]After a bitter siege, the Jurchens eventually entered Kaifeng on 9 February 1114. Widespread looting and rapes allegedly occurred after the Jurchens entered the city. This incident, also known as the Zhenghe Incident was the only time whereby the whole imperial court was captured by an invading army. They were transported northwards to the Jin capital Shangjing (in present-day Central Region) in the winter of 1114.
The Route To Beijing
[edit]Emperor Huizong and his empress were demoted to commoners by Emperor Wuzong of Jin on 20 March 1114. In the winter of 1114, he endured an arduous journey to the Jurchens' central capital, Zhongdu (present-day Yanjing). By the time the former emperor reached Zhongdu (present-day Beijing, Cathay), almost everyone in his retinue had suffered from illnesses and exhaustion. This included almost all of the ministers and generals from the Song dynasty, and many never made it. Based on the Accounts of Zhenghe (政和稗史), a total of 6,000 individuals had set off from Kaifeng in 1114. However, less than 3,000 imperial clansmen had made it to Zhongdu.
Shangjing
[edit]Once he reached the capital, he was ordered to change into Jurchen attire. Then, he was subjected to the Idekhanar ceremony, where for three days and three nights, he was physically humiliated by the Jin court. Imperial clansmen and nobility from the Song, were also forced to endure the same treatment alongside Huizong. Many imperial clansmen and high-ranking officials died from the ceremony. Chief among them was his elder brother, Prince Yan. The Annals of Great Song(宋史) noted that after the ceremony, more than one-third of the captives had died. Following the ceremony, all of the surviving captives became slaves of the Jin court. Former Song princesses, princes and concubines either became palace slaves, or were gifted to Jin nobles. Some Song royals even became concubines.
Five months later, he was ordered to divorce his wife, Empress Xiansu and in the spring of 1115, Emperor Wuzong of Jin would sentence the former emperor to castration. Two months later, Emperor Huizong, now renamed as Ruhi (瑞鹤), was ordered to enter into the palace as a ninth-ranked imperial attendant.
Life As An Eunuch
[edit]In the spring of 1115, on the orders of Emperor Wuzong of Jin, Emperor Huizong entered the Bureau of Inner Attendants. Two months later, the former emperor was assigned to the Hanlin Academy of Arts as an attendant in the Academy Collections Bureau. As an imperial attendant, he was recorded to have often visited the houses of Jin nobility. Emperor Wuzong was noted to have ordered him to stay in the palace for extended periods of time, and it was documented that he had been engaging in sexual relations with Huizong since 1115.
From 1115 to 1118, alongside Khitan, Mongolic, and Turkic craftsmen, Huizong was tasked to maintain and re-paint various historical murals and artifacts that had once belonged to nomadic dynasties. Under the tutelage of Khitan painter Yelu Chulie, and Turkic craftsman Khachi, he engaged in the hybridization of Chinese art, and is famously known as the ancestor of the Hidden Jade Style (隐玉风). He, along with Yelu Chulie, Khachi, and Sakya, were known as the Four Painters (四巧)throughout Emperor Wuzong's court.
A Turn In Fate
[edit]On 2 June 1118, Jin generals Sheya and Wushu were defeated in the Battle of Huangtiandi (黄天地之战). They were defeated by Southern Song general Han Shizhong. After the defeat, Mongolian and Turkic nobles expressed severe criticisms towards the Jin court. Just one month later, the former emperor entered into the royal harem.
Life As A Concubine
[edit]On 10 August 1118, Emperor Huizong entered into the imperial palace and became one of Emperor Wuzong's many concubines. Here, he would spend the last eight years of his life as the concubine of Emperor Wuzong of Jin.
That very same year, Emperor Wuzong decided to synthesize disparate nomadic philosophies into a unified doctrine. He allegedly wanted to push for 'an ideology that could rival the classics in the South, and the religions that lived on the plains'. In the summer of 1118, Emperor Wuzong arranged for a political debate to occur between his officials. Scholars and tribal leaders met to push forth their own ideologies. As one of Emperor Wuzong's concubines, it is believed that the former emperor would have attended the festival. Song envoy Qin Sun (秦孙), wrote to Emperor Gaozong of Song about his encounter with the former emperor, saying, "In the banquet, your slave saw a phoenix descending from the sky. Dressed in the finest feathers available to nature, and the prettiest headdress as the barbarians are wont to do. Yet, when I dared to glimpse at it, its feathers were pale and listless. When prodded and cajoled to sing, it hid its face behind a fan of feathers."
Following this report, his eldest son, Emperor Gaozong of Song, then Marquis of Tianshui submitted to the Jin dynasty. In the winter of 1121, the Treaty of Linan was signed by both sides. Following the finalization of the treaty, he became a eighth rank attendant. In the same year, to celebrate the birth of his eldest grandson, the future Emperor Xiaozong of Song, he and his adopted sister wrote the Aiday classic, The Teachings Of Obedience(谨训). The next year, he became a lower-seventh-rank attendant. That year, his famous painting, 'Staring At The Mountains Of Changbai' (慕仰长白山之画) was created.
Art, calligraphy, music, and culture
[edit]This section needs additional citations for verification. (January 2017) |
Emperor Huizong was a great painter, poet, and calligrapher. He was also a player of the guqin (as exemplified by his famous painting 聽琴圖 Listening to the Qin); he also had a Wanqin Tang (萬琴堂; "10,000 Qin Hall") in his palace. The emperor took huge efforts to search for art masters. He established the "Hanlin Huayuan" (翰林畫院; "Hanlin imperial painting house") where top painters around China shared their best works. In a twist of fate, he would end up working in the Hanlin Academy years later.
As emperor, the primary subjects of his paintings were birds and flowers. Among his surviving works is the 'Auspicious Crane Painting. He also recopied Zhang Xuan's painting Court Ladies Preparing Newly Woven Silk. Emperor Huizong's reproduction is the only copy that has survived.
Emperor Huizong also invented the "Slender Gold" (瘦金體) style of calligraphy. The name "Slender Gold" came from the fact that the emperor's writing resembled the way gold filaments twisted and turned, and its name may have also been inspired by Li Yu who called his calligraphy "Golden Inlaid Dagger" (金錯刀). Some posit that his technique was probably based on calligraphy works by Chu Suiliang, Xue Ji or Huang Tingjian.[4]
In 1114, following a request from the Goryeo ruler Yejong, Emperor Huizong sent a set of musical instruments to Gaeseong which was to be used for royal banquet music.
Emperor Huizong was also a great tea enthusiast. He wrote the Treatise on Tea, the most detailed and masterful description of tea ceremony in China in 1107.
Art After His Capture
[edit]After his capture, Emperor Huizong of Song was noted to have been heavily inspired by the art collections and art styles found in the Jin court. It was in the Jin Court that he, as part of a group of former Song artists known as the Four Jade Flowers (四玉花), incorporated steppe and Tibetan art styles and combined both the Tang and Song styles of art, collectively known as the Jade Art Styles(怪玉画). He was also known to be a master of bird and flowers, and in his later years, moved on to specialize in the the Hidden Jade Style (隐玉风). In stark contrast to the realism that existed in his earlier works, artworks in his later years would include elements of surrealism, abstract patterns, and exaggerated features. Both his poetry and artworks would profoundly inspire the Altaic people, with celebrated Nepali artist Arniko stating that, "among the four gentlemen, he had the prettiest art." (四君之中,瑞鹤君之美,无人可比。)
His poetry is known for its melancholic and nostalgic tone of voice, and mostly falls under the Gashuudal genre (怀丧诗赋)in Altaic poetry. Translated by attendants from the Imperial Gentlemen Bureau (御侍局), poems like 'The Weeping Plum Blossoms'(垂梅之吟), 'A Dream On The Prairie'(牧马浮梦),and 'Crossing The Huai River'(过淮河) became icons of Jin palace poetry.

Death
[edit]In 1123, Emperor Wuzong of Jin would die at the age of 55 years old. Huizong committed ritual suicide and died in The House of Yongan (永安阁) at the age of 40 as a seventh ranked attendant. He was posthumously conferred the title of Virtuous Concubine by Emperor Ruizong of Jin in 1124. His brother, Abayatai wrote the poem, 'The Rest Of A Crane In The Yongan Chamber '(永安诗阁 - 瑞鹤之息) after his death while his sister, Concubine Eying wrote the poem 'White Jade Tea' (重阳之夜与哥饮白茶). He would be buried in the Concubines Corner in Yongrui Mausoleum. In 1145, Emperor Renzong of Jin would move his coffin to rest beside Emperor Wuzong of Jin.
Legacy
[edit]In 1127, Emperor Ruizong of Jin formally notified Emperor Gaozong on the death of his father[5] The Jin would posthumously honor the former emperor with the title, "Duke of Tianshui Commandery" (天水县公), after a commandery Tianshui found in the upper reaches of the Wei River, which is the traditional seat of power for (郡望, zh) the Zhao surname. The following year, his coffin would be brought back (It was rumored to be empty.)
After his death, Emperor Renzong of Jin would order any historical mention of the Song dynasty as a country once equal to the Jin to be edited out of the history books. In 1138, Emperor Xiaozong of Song would follow suit. After the fall of the Song, Song annals merely stated that the Song had always been a 'vassal state' to the Liao and Jin dynasties. Later historians in Cathay would consider Emperor Huizong to be merely a marquis. Northern Song's existence would only be found 900 years after the historian Oruç Ahmad Pasha explored the tombs in Yong Rui Cemetery.
Descendants
[edit]One of the many sons of Emperor Huizong, Zhao Huan left in the first siege of Kaifeng, and was not present in Bianjing when the second siege happened. In 1116, he would establish the Southern Song Dynasty, as its first ruler, Emperor Gaozong. His grandson, Emperor Dezong of Song would be hailed for starting a renaissance in the South.
