Loyalty and treachery, a pair of words that are opposed to each other at all times.

There is no doubt that from ancient times to the present day, the faithful are admired and the traitors are spurned, and the two can never be confused.

It is no exaggeration to say that the so-called loyalty and traitor have long been determined for thousands of years, and if you ask a random person on the street, I believe that this person will give a similar answer, in this case, what does Chunting mean by what he is saying at this moment?

Seeing my puzzled look, Chunting smiled faintly, then looked at me and asked a question that sounded meaningless at first glance.

"Han Chuan, listening to your answer, it seems that there is a distinction between the so-called loyal traitors, so you can tell me, is Qin Hui loyal or traitor?"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but feel a pang of astonishment.

Chunting would actually ask me if Qin Hui was loyal or traitorous?

For the name Qin Hui, I believe that in the land of China, even three-year-old children have heard of it.

Qin Hui tried his best to denounce the anti-Jin soldiers, and at the same time formed a private party, expelled dissidents, and repeatedly raised prisons, there is no doubt that he was not only one of the best traitors in the history of the Southern Song Dynasty, even if he was placed in the Shenzhou millennium, he was also one of the famous traitors.

People from the Song Dynasty are less famous juniper, and I am ashamed to be surnamed Qin in front of the grave.

This pair of ancient famous couplets from Qin Hui's descendants is the best portrayal of him.

Qin Hui is the prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, the representative of the main and faction, he was captured to Jin with Hui and Qin Emperor in the second year of Jingkang, and in the fourth year of Jianyan, Qin Hui returned to Lin'an, and advocated the Song and Jin Dynasty to negotiate peace.

In the first year of Shaoxing, Qin Hui was promoted to participate in the governor's affairs, and then worshiped the prime minister, was impeached and removed from office the following year, and visited the prime minister again in the eighth year of Shaoxing, and ruled for a total of 19 years.

Qin Hui was undoubtedly the lord and faction in the Southern Song Dynasty court, he pursued the policy of cutting land, calling ministers, and paying tribute, and it was during his second visit to the prime minister that there was a famous unjust case that could be called a strange injustice through the ages, the Yue Fei case.

For Yue Fei and Yue Pengju, I believe there is no need to describe it too much, just one sentence "It is easy to shake the mountain, and it is difficult to shake the Yue family's army." "It is enough to make people's blood boil, if there is no Yuejia army to resist the invasion of the Jin army, I am afraid that the Southern Song Dynasty has already encountered the difficulty of destroying the country at that time.

But such a general who is unique in the thousand-year-old history of China, but finally died tragically under Qin Hui's "unwarranted" three words, this is the only point, no matter how future generations evaluate, Qin Hui is a well-deserved traitor.

Therefore, I couldn't figure out why Chunting had this question, so I looked at Chunting and replied confusedly.

"Qin Hui not only formed a party for personal gain and excluded dissidents, he also framed Yue Pengju and made him unjustly die in Fengbo Pavilion, no matter from that point of view, he is a great traitor."

"Things in the world are unpredictable and uncertain, and good and evil are actually water of the same origin."

Seeing my confused appearance, a strange smile appeared on Chunting's face, and he replied meaningfully when he looked at me.

"You're right, whether it is from the people of the Southern Song Dynasty at that time, or out of the perception of later generations, Qin Hui is undoubtedly a great traitor, but for one person, for one thing, not only can he not be called a traitor, but should be called a great loyal minister." 361 Reading

Chunting's voice fell, and my face was even more confused.

There is no doubt that loyalty is loyalty, treachery is treachery, and the two must not be confused with each other.

But in this case, why did he say this, why did a traitorous person like Qin Hui become the big traitor in his mouth?

"Han Chuan, you have to learn to look at problems from different angles, some things, after changing angles, you will get a completely different answer."

Seeing that I was still so dazed, Chun Ting shook his head helplessly, he no longer played tricks, but pointed out the direction of my thinking.

"It is true that Qin Hui formed a party for personal gain, excluded dissidents, and framed Yue Pengju, whether at that time or in later generations, he was recognized as a traitor, but have you ever thought that without considering all this, if you only look at Qin Hui from the perspective of Song Gaozong, is he really a traitor?"

Hearing Chunting's serious words, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Obviously, in Chunting's words, there was no intention of overturning the case for Qin Hui, and he also did not deny what Qin Hui had done, and determined that he was a great traitor.

It's just that, outside of our impression, Chunting has some more opinions than us, that is, even if everyone in the world says that Qin Hui is a traitor, but Qin Hui is not a traitor to Song Gaozong.

Why is that?

Maybe it's because of the various anecdotes and rumors I've heard since I was a child, which has led to the idea that Qin Hui is a traitor in my mind, so after some thought, I still haven't figured out the meaning of what Chunting said.

For a moment, I couldn't help but look at everyone with an anxious face, hoping that someone would come forward to answer my questions.

At this moment, I saw a faint smile on Ling Xuan's face, and he looked at me deeply, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Seeing his reaction, I naturally understood that he was waiting for my inquiry, so I did not have the slightest politeness and seriously questioned him.

"Ling Xuan, you have been with Chunting the longest time, so naturally you know what he thinks in his heart better than everyone else, what do you think of what Chunting said just now?"

"Han Chuan, where do I have any opinions, in fact, a long time ago, my impression of Qin Hui was the same as you are at this moment, and I wholeheartedly believe that he is a peerless traitor."

After hearing my inquiry, Ling Xuan slowly spoke, and while he responded to me, he looked at Chunting's face tentatively, wanting to know if Chunting would open his mouth to stop him.

"However, Brother Ting and I once talked about the way of loyalty and treachery, and it was at that time that Brother Ting interpreted this matter for me from a different perspective, and it was from then that I understood why Brother Ting always said that you must not look at things in a blind way, because as long as you have different angles, you will get completely different understandings."

After some temptation, Ling Xuan saw that Chun Ting had no intention of opening his mouth to stop him, so he relieved himself and talked to me eloquently.

"Let's not talk about Qin Hui, let's talk about Yue Fei and Yue Pengju first, Yue Wumu is a great hero, he led the troops to resist Jin, brave and good at fighting, if there is no Yue family army to guard the Southern Song Dynasty, I am afraid that the country has already changed hands, in this regard, absolutely no one can deny his merits."

"But there is no doubt that although Yue Fei is a qualified general, he is not a qualified courtier, he neither knows the way of being an official, nor does he understand the heart of an emperor, for Song Gaozong, Yue Fei is actually a double-edged sword that hurts both others and himself."
