Kou Zhun has a nickname called Kou Lao Xi 'er among the people. Because of his poor background, outstanding talent and brave words, he exists like a god in the hearts of ordinary people. He was demoted seven times in his life because he was too honest, too frank and too excellent. His experience should be a word, that is, the wood in the forest is beautiful, and the wind will urge it. As the saying goes, the gun hits the first bird.

Kou Zhun, a child of a poor family, studies hard and has a flexible mind. Before he was twenty, he was already a precocious teenager. He went to Kaifeng to take an exam presided over by Song Taizong. Above the main hall, Kou Zhun had no stage fright. He has answers, and his arrogant attitude has attracted Song Taizong's attention. He liked this talented, honest and frank boy very much and hired him at once. The pride of spring breeze and the anxiety of horseshoe made young Kou Zhun catch up.

Kou Zhun was demoted several times, all related to his integrity.

For example, he presides over the examination and election of officials, which is the power to organize personnel and is easy to offend people. He didn't change justice and inadvertently made many enemies for himself. On one occasion, Kou Zhun was riding a horse on a business trip. A man stopped him in the street and knelt down and shouted long live. Emperor Taizong was very angry when he learned that there was no smoke without fire. He thought Kou Zhun's name was Long Live, of course! In this way, because of the villain's frame-up, Kou Zhun was banished to Qingchuan.

Later, when there was chaos in the DPRK, Emperor Taizong couldn't help but miss Kou Zhun's integrity and called him back to Beijing to worship the official as a political advisor. Kou Zhun's unchanging temper has touched many interests. At that time, some conservatives even formed a camp, specifically targeting Kou.

Taizong was old and confused at that time. After listening to slanderers, Kou Zhun was once again demoted to the secretariat and went to Dengzhou. Only two years later, Song Zhenzong came to power. Know Kou Zhun and use him as Prime Minister. ?

During the invasion of Northern Liao Dynasty, both Zhenzong and Manchu Wu Wen panicked. Kou Zhun clung to the angry capitulationists, saying that they would be sinners in the Song Dynasty through the ages, and insisted that Zhenzong use personal expedition. Kou Zhun personally directed the war, and Song Jun won. He suggested that Zhenzong cross the Yellow River. Later, when the Liao army saw the arrival of the Song Emperor, there was no fighting spirit, and the Liao army fled in haste. This was the signing of the Yuan Dynasty Alliance.

Nevertheless, Lee won, and the capitulators still wanted to oust Kou Zhun. Together, they slandered in Zhenzong, saying that Kou Zhun ignored his sacred life. True Sect actually believed it, and took the opportunity to dismiss Kou Zhun as Prime Minister and sent him to Shanzhou as a magistrate.

This has been done for more than ten years. When Kou Zhun was recalled to the imperial court as prime minister, the Northern Song Dynasty was already the day of warriors, and the court was riddled with holes. Who can reverse it?

Kou Zhun is a loyal minister, but he is too serious. He gets along with ministers, making too many enemies and having no friends of his own, which is fatal.
