论北宋真宗时期君权与相权的关系

Relationship between the Monarchical Power and the PrimeMinister’s Power during the Reign of Song Zhenzong inNorth Song Dynasty

北宋真宗朝的君权与相权,在真宗执政的不同时期表现出了不同的君相关系。由于宰相对宋真宗顺利即位有较大帮助,且澶渊之盟中宋真宗需要倚仗宰相进行决策,因此真宗朝前期宰相权力比太祖、太宗时有所加强。但看似强横的相权依然被君权加以诸多限制,君主牢牢把握着朝政最终决策权和官员任免权。因此澶渊之盟后真宗朝的相权实际上更多体现为君权的附庸。

The monarchical power and the prime pinister’s power showed different relations in different periods of Song Zhenzong’s reign.Because the prime minister helped the emperor to ascend the throne,and in the alliance of Chanyuan,the emperor relied on the prime minister to make decisions,so the power of the prime minister was strengthened in the early Zhenzong Dynasty.But the prime minister is still subject to many restrictions by the monarch.The monarch firmly holds the final decision-making power and the appointment and dismissal power of officials.Therefore,the power of the prime minister after the alliance of Chanyuan was actually more embodied as a vassal of the monarch’s power.
