Storm tragedy
In later generations, even if there are hundreds of mouths of gold, there will always be people with a conscience to maintain Yue Fei's reputation. But at that time, Yue Fei was already in trouble, and no one could shelter him and give him even a little bit of justice!
After weaving the so-called "incriminating evidence" above, Wan Qian finally interrogated Yue Fei. In the public court, this person nakedly and loudly reprimanded, "Yue Fei, what is the country wrong to you, but your father and son want to rebel with Zhang Xian"
Obviously, the other party is a traitorous villain, but now he is being interrogated by this villain if he is a rebel... This extreme sense of absurdity completely angered Yue Fei, and he retorted in a louder voice, "Swear to Tianming, I am not disappointed by the country!" Thou shalt uphold the Fa, and thou shalt not harm thy loyal servants! I will go to the underworld and face you endlessly" While speaking, Yue Fei's eyebrows furrowed angrily, and he stretched out his arms and pointed at his halberd, and the grievances of the long imprisonment made him unable to control himself. At this moment, the official next to him suddenly hit the ground with his staff and shouted, "Yue Fei is standing with his crossed hands"
Yue Fei woke up suddenly, at this moment he was completely awake, the deeds of his life flashed in his heart, the fame of the thirty-year-old, the journey of eight thousand miles, and the commander of 100,000 soldiers were all in the past... He's just a prisoner now!
Even a single official dared to reprimand him... And the following scene made me even more disheartened when I was sober. Wan Qianyu said, "Xianggong said that he had no intention of rebelling, do you remember when you visited Tianzhu Temple, you once left a poem on the wall with the inscription 'When will the cold door be rich and noble'?" What does that mean? Doesn't writing such words show that you have the intention of rebelling, "You are not guilty, but I just want to play you to death, how about it?"
When it was, Yue Fei calmed down, and only said one sentence, "I know that I have fallen into the hands of Qin Hui's thieves, so that I will be loyal to the country, once I am all gone", after speaking, he did not say a word...
There's nothing more to say! What else can be said? Do you reason with villains and traitors who know that they are being framed? Yue Fei is just loyal, he is not naïve...
Wan Qianyu didn't let him go. If the villain falls into the hands of a gentleman, he will die neatly at most. If a gentleman falls into the hands of a villain, it is not so easy to die. Yue Fei has ruined so many good things about them over the years, how can he let them go gently. How can he die an easy and dignified death?
What happened next was not so much the shame of Yue Fei as the shame of a nation. It is not so much the pain of Yue Fei alone, but the source of the ultimate pain of the entire Han nation...
Yue Fei was tortured! The Han nation is abusing and killing its own heroes, insulting its strongest generals, everything has its own cause and effect, no matter who it is, what did it, this has derived the ugliest and tragic consequences: heroes are useless, heroes cannot protect themselves, heroes are tortured... So the heroes became fewer and fewer day by day, until they withered and fell...
Yue Fei was tortured in prison and was silent. He did not say a word, until he went on a hunger strike, and he never admitted his guilt. However, for many reasons, such as the speed of change in the current situation, they couldn't let him die soon, they found Yue Fei's second son Yue Lei and asked Yue Lei to deliver food in prison, implying a threat and forcing Yue Fei to live...
Yue Fei's experience gradually spread outside the prison. At this time, the Song Dynasty had been self-harmed to a dangerous critical point, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all prepared for danger in times of peace, and everyone was wise to protect themselves, and no one dared to stand up and say a fair word. Not to mention what is for the family, for the country, dare to speak. At that time, only a few people dared to avenge Yue Fei's grievances! In addition to the top clan Zhao Shi who has been ousted as mentioned above? In addition, there are several scribes such as Zhihun , Liu Yunsheng , Fan Chengzhi and so on, among which Zhihun is still a monk who is a monk. Besides. There is only Han Shizhong!
Han Shizhong is now a scattered person. Only led the Liquan envoy with the title of Taifu, closed the door every day, and never mentioned state affairs. I don't see any old military people, I only take one or two children to cross the donkey and carry wine every day, and wander around the West Lake. In other words, he is showing his determination with his actions - to be a good citizen and save his life!
But when he found out about Yue Fei's incident, he was still furious and couldn't restrain himself! He found Qin Hui and asked Yue Fei face to face what was his crime? It's been so long, what the hell has been found out!
Qin Hui's answer was frank, and the original words were "Although Fei Ziyun and Zhang Xianshu are unknown, their affairs are unwarranted" This is an unprecedented political hooligan sentence! "False" can be interpreted as a vague nature such as maybe, maybe, etc. That is to say: The sins of Yue Fei's father and son may or may not exist in zài, but in this way, they can be judged guilty!
It's not so much dirty as it is domineering! It's not so much ugly as overbearing! This is a blatant disregard for human life, and the lives of Yue Fei's father and son are disregarded like a game when talking and laughing!
At that time, Han Shizhong had no choice but to say indignantly, "Xianggong, how can the three words 'unnecessary' serve the world" and turned away. At this point, the act of avenging Yue Fei has also come to an end...
How obvious is the numbness and timidity of a nation! This was unthinkable in the previous Northern Song Dynasty or even in the early days of the Southern Crossing. The reason why this is the case is completely the result of Zhao Gou and Qin Hui's suppression in the past few years!
What is nonsense? Why did Han Shizhong leave immediately after hearing it, just angry? No! Maybe it should be looked at a different angle. Han Shizhong was asking the reason with an angry face, but Qin Hui stared at him with a smile and said softly, "Do you need a reason?"
If you don't have it, do you need to have it? I'm just going to kill Yue Fei! That's what the emperor meant, and that's what I me! If you ask, I'll sue you! Is there any reason for the need? No matter how wordy, tomorrow will be you!
Han Shizhong, who is already difficult to protect himself, is there any other way than to turn around and walk away? Only under this kind of deterrence will there be no one who dares to speak for Yue Fei!
So far, Yue Fei has become a taboo in the Southern Song Dynasty, he was locked in a heavy prison in Dali Temple, tortured and eaten prisoner food, and no one cared about it. Time passed day by day, and soon the wax moon was approaching...
Yue Fei was close to being evaporated. His contributions to the empire and the nation were lost, and he himself disappeared from the public eye... Considering that he has been removed from all military and official positions before, and referring to the fact that he has never killed any ministers since the founding of the Song Dynasty, it seems that his fate has ushered in a new turning point?
He will be released as a commoner or exiled criminal, and live peacefully on the outskirts of the empire until his quiet death. In this way, it is beneficial to the empire, to the nation, to Yue Fei himself, and even to Zhao Gou, Qin Hui and other people in power. Zhao Gou can be called a faint monarch and a traitorous monarch by later history books, but he doesn't have to wear the big hat of a tyrant and a widowed king...
These problems will be understood by future generations, and the parties concerned will know better, after all, these are people who are sensitive to their own interests and care to the extreme. So Zhao Gou was silent, Qin Hui hesitated, and hesitated for nearly a month, until one day when the New Year was approaching...
That day, Qin Hui hid in the study and retired everyone. A man eats citrus, thoughtfully. His mouth was moving, his hand was scribbling back and forth between the orange peels, his heart was a mess, and he didn't know what to do: kill Yue Feigu as he wished, but what about the people's hearts and the army's hearts? Everything has a bottom line, seeing that the agreement is reached, and then there is chaos, is the gain outweighing...
At this time, someone walked in, and when he looked like this, he couldn't help but feel very disdainful, "Is the old man so indecisive?" It's easy to catch a tiger and it's hard to release a tiger," Qin Hui's wife, Wang!
Wang. The granddaughter of Wang Qi, the famous minister of the Northern Song Dynasty Shenzong Dynasty, I don't know what kind of blood she was born in, and I can't find the slightest trace of Wang Jue's grace and dullness back then, and she is so gentle that she doesn't distinguish between right and wrong. She is insidious and vicious, and she is more dangerous than Qin Hui in a certain way! She reminded Qin Hui with a woman's sinister selfishness that even if Yue Fei was loyal, it didn't mean that Yue Fei wouldn't have a sense of revenge after being locked up for so long and tortured! I'd rather kill the wrong one than let it go!
Qin Hui suddenly realized, and the chaos in his heart was instantly extinguished. He reached for pen and paper. I wrote a note at random and sent someone to send it to Dali Temple. Wan Qianyu understood in his heart, and quickly handed over a verdict "Yue Fei's private crime, Zhang Xian's private crime, and Yue Yun's private criminal" I don't know what the intention is, leaving Yue Yun with a way out. The verdict was handed over to the Royal Palace. When he came out, he was slightly altered by Zhao Gou: "Yue Fei is dead." Zhang Xian and Yue Yun were also executed in accordance with military law. ordered Yang Yi to be beheaded, and still sent more troops to protect him, "The emperor cut off a road to life, and must control Yue Fei's father and son to death!"
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, December 29, 1141, Yue Fei, who was lonely and lonely in prison, and three others were suddenly taken to the main hall of Dali Temple. Wan Qianyu and others took out a confession and asked him to draw a confession. Yue Fei understood that this was the last moment, looking back on his life and focusing on the present. Full of resentment, he picked up his pen and wrote down eight words: "The sun is clear!" Day by day"
The sky is above, the sky is bright, how can Yue Fei be allowed to suffer such an end! There is light in the world, but where is the light? At this time, Yue Fei was completely disappointed in this world, and he could only prove it by being loyal to his beliefs and entrusting himself to the void God!
Yue Fei died tragically! Legend has it that he was poisoned to death in a small pavilion named Fengbo in the Dali Temple. It's called Storm, but in fact, there is no wind in the dark night, Yue Fei died in a complete conspiracy, and there is no publicity!
The verdict was not made public, and due to the suddenness of the execution, the executioners could not complete the procedure in time, even though they held the highest power in the state. The judgment is to be reissued the next day by filling in the sun and the moon. There is no legal procedure, and there is no public eye... Three heroes who did not die on the battlefield, on this night, were silently killed by their own country... This year, Yue Fei was 39 years old, Yue Yun was 23 years old, and Zhang Xian was unknown...
After Yue Fei was killed, according to Zhao Gou's order, he would be hastily buried under a corner of Dali Temple, and no one in the world would know Yue Fei's whereabouts, and he would be destroyed!
Zhao Gou and Qin Hui almost succeeded! Still that night, after the people had dispersed, one of the jailers quietly returned. He dug up Yue Fei's body, crossed the streets and alleys all the way, went out of the Qiantang Gate in the northwest of Lin'ancheng, and arrived at a flat land at the foot of Beishan Mountain near the Jiuqu Cong Temple...
Yue Fei was buried here, the jailer erected a grave for him, planted two orange trees in front of the grave as a mark, and the stele engraved "Jia Yiren's Tomb" Many years later, when Yue Fei was wronged and was revealed, these are all evidence of the search for the hero's body. In addition, Yue Fei also had a jade ring on his hand when he was killed, which was a token given to him by his wife Li...
Yue Fei is dead! As a hero who has been invincible and impeccable for nearly a thousand years, his death has become a knot in the heart of a nation. A country will try to please itself by killing its strongest and most loyal general, who has defeated the invader...
To do such a thing that relatives and enemies are happy, and to do such a relentless Cheng dù, Qin Hui may be characterized as a national thief and traitor to explain, but as the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, why would Zhao Gou also? Is he also a traitor?
Based on the Lu Su theory (anyone can surrender to Cao Cao, but Sun Quan cannot), it can be concluded that Zhao Gou is not a traitor, because it is not in his interests. But that's what he did! Why?
For more than 800 years, experts and scholars of various eras have summed up various reasons to try to restore Zhao Gou's thinking at that time. The reason why he killed Yue Fei was nothing more than the following reasons:
1 Yue Fei was disobedient
But the characteristics of the officials of the Song Dynasty were disobedient, civil officials could scold the emperor in person, and they could write chapters to belittle the emperor from the soul to the body, not only would they not be killed, but they could also become famous and win awards. As for military generals, disobedience is even more common. Like Liu Guangshi, one of the four major generals of the period, whether this person is suppressing bandits or resisting Jin, if he wants to do it, he can't do it if he doesn't do it, Zhao Gou can't take him... So it doesn't matter at all whether you are obedient or not.
2 money
Yue Fei and other four generals, or add the Wu brothers, to become the trend of the five major feudal towns. Let's not talk about the tragedy of the Tang Dynasty's death in the feudal town, but only the situation that Zhao Gou faced at that time: the small size of the Southern Song Dynasty, coupled with the end of the war and the end of the Huashi Gang, was equivalent to rebuilding the country on the ruins. In this case, the war has not stopped for many years, the military expenditure is huge, and the five major feudal towns are always reaching out to ask for money, how can this be obtained? In particular, the military, political, and financial powers within the jurisdiction of each feudal town are completely responsible for themselves, and each has its own land. In this way, Zhao Gou will not collect military power, will not withdraw the three major generals, will not kill or abolish Han and Yue, and will see that the country will not be a country... Seems like a good reason, right?
But the Song Dynasty has always been a country that buys power with money, supports officials with high salaries, and even uses money to feed the hungry people into an army, and pays all the families of soldiers in full. This is the foundation of the Song Dynasty! If you have less money, you will kill people, and you want to kill so thick and shameless, cruel and obscure?
3. Please appoint the crown prince in the letter
This was the second largest cause of Yue Fei's death. The specific experience was in September and October of 1137, that is, two or three months after Yue Fei went to Lushan to guard filial piety and had to go down the mountain to lead the army. At that time, he and Xue Bi, the accompanying military transfer envoy of the Yue family's army, went to Lin'an to report on their work.
On the way, Yue Fei said to Xue Bi very strictly: He wants to do a big thing... After that, Yue Fei often wrote alone in the cabin, and no one was allowed to read the contents. Until he entered Lin'an City, he read what he wrote to Zhao Gou in person. According to records: Yue Fei suddenly lost his temper, his voice was no longer loud, his hands trembled, and he barely finished reading the chapter, and his face had become as if he was dead gray...
