“靖康之变”后,北宋灭亡,宋高宗赵构南逃至临安(今杭州),于公元1127年建立了南宋。苟且偷安、软弱无能的宋高宗,是一个有名的昏君,他对自己很节俭,对大臣们也很苛刻,但对秦桧却异常慷慨,为世人所诟病。宋高宗的前半生,命运多舛,偏安一隅之后,他深知民生之艰辛,暂时的安定来之不易,于是特别提倡节俭,以匡复天下。 After the “Change of Jingkang”, the Northern Song Dynasty perished, while Song Gaozong Zhao Nannan fled to Lin’an (now Hangzhou) and established the Southern Song Dynasty in 1127 AD. Struggling, weak and incompetent Song Gaozong, a famous faint king, was very frugal to himself and very harsh to ministers, but unusually generous to Qin Hui, criticized by the world. In the first half of the Song Dynasty, after having a lot of destiny and partial security, he knew the hardships of people’s livelihood and hard-earned temporary stability. So he advocated thrift and rehabilitation.
