【Chairman Mao comments on the Qin Juniper of Historical Figures】
In Chinese history, Qin Ju was the representative of the great traitors, especially the killing of the national hero Yue Fei, who was forever nailed to the pillar of shame, and still cannot be turned over to this day.
Sometimes, history is like this, later generations will be Yue Feishu as a national hero, then, the Qin Juniper who killed him must be written so bad that it cannot be worse, just the kneeling statues of Qin Juniper and his wife, there are thousands in history, until today, there are at least seven in all parts of the country, it can be seen that for qin juniper such a traitor, it has become a cultural phenomenon.
However, Chairman Mao had a different view of this statement, he believed that major matters at the national level with the Jin Ren Lord and such a person could not be decided by a prime minister, and That Song Gaozong was not a fool, and his ability was still very strong, and it was not an easy task for Qin Ju to influence his thinking.
In the summer of 1957, the famous scholar Mao Guangsheng went to Beijing to visit his son Mao Shuxiang, and when Chairman Mao heard about it, he offered to meet them.
After everyone greeted each other, Mao Guangsheng introduced his son Mao Shuxiang to Chairman Mao and said that Mao Shuxiang wrote a drama "Jing ZhongGuo" in the early days of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
The two nodded, and Chairman Mao paused for a moment and said to Mao Shuxiang: "The responsibility of the lord and the lord is not all in Qin Juniper, behind the scenes is Song Gaozong, who is only carrying out the emperor's will." Emperor Gaozong did not want to fight, but first 'Annei', and could not but surrender to the Jin people. Wen Zhengming has a first word, which can be read. ”
Later, Mao Shuxiang found this poem, just in the Yuewang Temple in Hangzhou, entitled "Manjiang Hong, Fu Shu Remnant Stele", which was written like this——
Wipe the remnants of the stele, the words fly, faintly can be read.
At the beginning, I relied on flying and how heavy, and then I was cool!
If the result is to die, it is difficult to redeem the poor things.
The most innocent, hateful and even more pitiful, storm hell!
Don't you think, Zhongyuan, don't hesitate, Hui Qin insults.
But Hui Qin has returned, what is this body!
Throughout the ages, Hugh Kwanan crossed the wrong way, and at that time he was afraid of the restoration of zhongyuan.
Laughter is just a little, how can a juniper be able to meet its desires.
After reading this poem, Mao Shuxiang basically understood Chairman Mao's views on Qin Juniper, especially the last sentence: "Laughter is simple, how can a juniper be able to meet his desires." It had already been written very clearly that the reason why Qin Ju dared to insist on the lord and even kill Yue Fei was not how much ability he had, but to cater to Song Gaozong's wishes.
So the question is: Why did Emperor Gaozong of Song have to kill Yue Fei? At that time, the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty was already in turmoil, and it was too late to reuse such a social and able minister, so why kill him?
This has to start with Zhao Shuo becoming emperor.
After the change of Jing Kang, the Second Emperor Hui Qin was taken away by the Jin people, and Zhao Zhuo returned to the south to claim the title of emperor and preside over the overall situation, but he always had a heart disease, that is, his ascension to the throne was not orthodox. Logically, Song Qinzong was still alive and did not abdicate, the orthodox Song Emperor was still him, and Zhao Zhuo was called emperor in the south, always a temporary emperor, or an acting emperor.
In this context, the better Yue Fei led the Yue family army, the more worried Zhao Zhuo became, especially Yue Fei also openly played the slogan: "Directly pound the Yellow Dragon, welcome the Second Saint and return the dynasty." Zhao Zhao was even more unable to sleep and eat.
If it is really "welcoming the second saint to return the dynasty", Song Huizong is still good to say, it is Song Qinzong who is difficult to deal with, after all, the family is the orthodox Emperor of the Great Song, and Zhao Shuo will definitely return the throne to him. Even if Song Qinzong knew about current affairs and did not accept it, Zhao Zhuo would find it difficult to block Yoyo's mouth, and he would definitely say anything.
Such a situation is definitely something that Zhao Zhuo does not want to see, and the best solution is to let Song Qinzong never come back!
Therefore, after Yue Fei's great victory in Zhu Xianzhen, he saw that he was about to "directly pound the Yellow Dragon", and Zhao Zhuo immediately sent down 12 gold medals in a row, urging him to hurry back, lest he really take Song Qinzong back.
Unfortunately, although Yue Fei was a military genius, he lacked political acumen, and he did not know what Zhao Shuo was thinking, let alone that what he wanted to do most was exactly what Zhao Shuo was most taboo about, so that his death was inevitable.
However, Zhao Huo was a wise man, and he knew very well that getting rid of yue Fei would definitely leave a name for eternity, and he could not do it himself, so Qin Ju was pushed to the forefront and became Zhao Shuo's "back pot man".
Chairman Mao is familiar with the history books and knows all kinds of historical phenomena very well, so naturally he will not be unaware of this relationship.
In May 1975, when Chairman Mao was talking to people about the "History of Song", he said: "Song Gaozong and Qin Juniper surrendered, in fact, the responsibility of the lord and the lord and the surrender is not all in Qin Juniper, and it is Gaozong Zhao who plays a decisive role behind the scenes." This is somewhat reflected in the "Biography of Qin Juniper" of the "Biography of the Traitorous Minister" of the "Song Shi". ”
This passage once again expresses Chairman Mao's point of view that Qin Ju is not the main person responsible for the main peace, and it is Zhao Shuo who plays a decisive role.
For example, in February 1964, Chairman Mao convened people outside the Party to hold a Spring Festival forum on education, at which everyone spoke enthusiastically, and the atmosphere was very good, Chairman Mao talked about Qin Juniper, saying: "There are few outstanding zhuangyuan in history, Li Bai and Du Fu of the Tang Dynasty are not zhuangyuan, and the only outstanding zhuangyuan are Wen Tianxiang and Qin Juniper. Liu Zongyuan and Han Yu were born in Hanlin, but the second-rate Wang Shifu, Guan Hanqing, Shi Nai'an, Cao Xueqin, Luo Guanzhong, Pu Songling, etc., were not Champions. ”
Here, Chairman Mao juxtaposed Qin Juniper with Wen Tianxiang, believing that the two of them were among the more outstanding in the past dynasties, which was a very high evaluation of Qin Juniper.
Of course, Chairman Mao's remarks are also limited, that is, the cultural aspect, especially the Song script invented by Qin Juniper, has continued to this day.
At that time, Qin Juniper was the official of the official official, he found that the public script in various places was not the same, nor was it neat, which was not conducive to office efficiency, so he imitated the "thin gold body" of Emperor Huizong of song and created a unique font, simple and neat, easy to learn and understand, and later gradually developed into today's very common Song characters.
As for why it is called "Song Font Character" instead of "Qin Character", the reason is also very simple, because Qin Juniper's reputation is too poor, no one wants to use his surname to name this font, simply named "Song Character".
