As the saying goes, "Since ancient times, loyal subjects have no good death, and since ancient times loyalty has no good end", when it comes to loyalty to the country, everyone's first impression is Yue Fei. Yue Fei's death by the traitorous courtiers was tragic, while his son Yue Yun was little known. The tiger father had no dogs, Yue Fei was 39 years old when he was killed, and Yue Yun was subsequently killed.
Yue Feigong's high shock was completely different from Emperor Zhao's political goals, which led to the disaster of killing himself. But it has been difficult for people to understand why Yue Fei's "false accusation" was added to the head of Yue Fei's son Yue Yun. Common sense speaks, this crime has nothing to do with the Son. Let's understand the overlooked Yue Yun: since ancient times, many emperors have killed generals but rarely killed their sons, why Yue Yun was killed.
Teen Heroes
Yue Fei can be said to be a household name, but his son Yue Yun is rarely heard of. People only knew that Yue Yun was in the same military camp as his father but had never heard of any battle achievements, which was actually a method for Yue Fei to temper Yue Yun. The purpose was to let Yue Yun not be entangled in military merit and concentrate on learning and growing.
Yue Fei's heirs were very young, and only Yue Yun could join the army with him, and Yue Yun was 12 years old when he first entered the military camp, and he was a "boy scout". Yue Yun was also the only designated heir in Yue Fei's eyes, but he was not doting, on the contrary, he treated Yue Yun more strictly than ordinary soldiers, and all the hard training Yue Yun did not fall behind.
When the young Yue Yun entered the barracks, he was just an ordinary little sergeant, and he accidentally fell into his horse during training and almost died. It is reasonable to say that Yue Fei, as a father, should immediately show concern, but he did not, seeing that his son was not in serious trouble, but severely punishing Yue Yun's 100 military sticks showed that he was strict, but it was also a grind for Yue Yun.
In such an environment, Yue Yun quickly grew into a Xiao general, and after several major battles, he was already able to stand alone, Yue Yun was armed with a pair of iron cone guns, winning hundreds of battles, and the Yue family army internally called "Yingguan Ren", which was similar to the title of Changsheng General. The Great War of Yingchang led by example, fighting with the Jin people to the death, turning the tide of the war, and not living up to Yue Fei's expectations.
In the records, Yue Fei often asked for merit for the soldiers, but only withheld Yue Yun's military merits and did not report it, and several times politely refused to add yue Yun's official title. In life, Yue Fei resolutely did not let Yue Yun get drunk, and once he had time in the arduous study and training, he would order Yue Yun to cultivate and let him experience the hardships of cultivation.
Yue Yun could not escape death
Yue Fei was recalled by Zhao Zhuo and Qin Ju with twelve tokens, and also implicated a number of soldiers. Qin Ju's purpose was to torture Yue Fei, force him to confess to the evidence of Yue Jiajun's conspiracy to rebel, and then execute him secretly and then turn the page. But what made Qin Ju and Zhao Zhuo change their minds and had to be executed together with Yue Yun and Zhang Xian?
At that time, Dali Temple's Secretary Wednesday Wei, Dali Temple's Li Ruopu, He Yanyou, and others all thought that Yue Yun's crime was not appropriate to die, and it was most appropriate to take him into custody and put him in prison. And according to the regulations, even if it is a real attempt to rebel, Yue Yun will not be a death sentence.
Qin Ju's criticism: "Yue Yun, because of his father's right to strike the army, dared to communicate with zhang Xian, the chief military officer, and ordered him to draw a picture with his confidant, causing Zhang Xian to raise troops to plot rebellion; and to report the secrets of the imperial court to confuse the hearts of the army." Love ensemble. The head that placed the blame for the crime in just a few words was the Tao, which showed that Qin Juniper had a sinister intention, and his iron heart wanted to put the Yue family to death.
Qin Juniper
Regarding Yue Yun's handling, Qin Ju expressed his opinion on Zhao Shuo, and wrote down the proposed crimes one by one, and said to Zhao Shuo: Yue Yun's crime must be punished by death, and the seriousness of the crime is best handled in a specific manner. Let Zhao Zhuo decide for himself. Of course, the charges on the book are also "false", but Zhao Zhuo and Qin Junchen have long understood each other's intentions.
The Yue family army was one of the largest in the Southern Song Dynasty, and if its combat effectiveness really rebelled, Zhao Zhuo would certainly be powerless to return to heaven. And Yue Yun was already a spiritual leader in the Yue family army, and his martial arts and strategies were recognized by the Yue family army, and if he knew that his father Yue Fei had been wronged and died, he would not rebel against the Yue family army.
On the other hand, yue jiajun was a private soldier of the Great Song Dynasty, which itself had already made Zhao Zhuo very afraid, and if Yue Fei did not kill Yue Yun after his death, his distribution or detention would not affect Yue Yun's status in the Yue family army. Zhao Shuo would be even more difficult to control the Yue family army, and even if Yue Yun agreed to continue to command the Yue family army, I am afraid that the young Yue Yun would not be easily tamed.
There is also the Zhao family's instinctive caution from Zhao Kuangyin, thinking that When Zhao Kuangyin drank wine, he released his military power because the local forces were too large and it was difficult for him to control. For Zhao Shuo, and the Yue family army was the largest army at that time, so he gradually made up his mind that Yue Yun must be killed. One day yue yun was alive, the Yue family army was more dangerous for Zhao Zhao.
Zhao Zhao
Moreover, Yue Yun was the commander of the Beifeng Army, a branch of the Yue Family Army, which was the vanguard of the Yue Family Army, and had turned the tide in several major battles and made great achievements. Therefore, when considering how to deal with Yue Yun, it was difficult for Qin Ju not to take Yue Yun's prestige into account. Therefore, the execution of Yue Yun is also the result of repeated deliberations, because there are really very few such cases in history.
For example, Ji Kang of the Jin Dynasty was killed by Sima Zhao, but his son died escorting Sima Zheng. The heirs of sinners do not have to sit together, and some are reused. It is a pity that Yue Yun's skills died tragically at the hands of the traitors in his twenties, and like his father Yue Fei, he had an empty ambition to serve the country but it was difficult to exert.
On December 29, 111th year of Shaoxing, a famous general Yue Fei was killed in prison at Dali Temple in Hangzhou, and Yue Yun and his subordinate Zhang Xian were beheaded in the downtown area of Lin'an. After Yue Fei's death, yue's army fell apart and was broken up by Zhao Shuo, some of the troops would be used by Zhao Shuo, and those who refused to submit were eventually assassinated and murdered, and some of them were extremely disappointed in the Song Dynasty and turned to gold.
This was exactly in Zhao Shuo's heart, and the final situation was also what he wanted to see most, being an emperor in peace was his wish all along, and the murder of Yue Fei's father and son made him fulfill his wish. In order to get rid of the thorn in the flesh of his heart, Zhao Zhuo spent all his thoughts on it, and getting rid of Yue Yun was also something he had to do to eliminate hidden dangers.
Yue Fei yue yun are all victims of politics, and the murder is also the act of imperial power, Qin Ju only acts according to Zhao Shuo's will, it can be said that Zhao Shuo as an emperor still has some ability, and the means are also extremely cruel. The Yue family is loyal to the people of the country, and Zhao Zhuo does not care about public opinion in doing the opposite, which shows that in order to maintain his own power, he has done everything.
Yue Jiajun returned to Zhaoxue twenty years after the dissolution, Yue Fei's father and son were rehabilitated, and Qin Ju was spurned by many kneeling bronze statues after his death, but of course the real murderer could not be said at that time, after all, it was still the world of the Great Song Dynasty at that time, so he found Qin Juniper, the executioner, to be Zhao Shuo's scapegoat.
