Introduction: Yue Fei, a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty, was loyal to the country all his life, but he died at the hands of traitors. So who killed Yue Fei? And what caused Yue Fei's father and son to die unjustly? Let's talk about that.
Yue Fei, a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty, was killed by his traitors
So far, the culprit we know as well is Qin Juniper, who knelt in front of Yue Fei's tomb. In that year, the Yue family army broke through the golden soldiers, and the generals shook their fists and had high morale. As the commander-in-chief, Yue Fei was even more excited, and he wanted to directly attack huanglong.
However, unexpectedly, at this time, the imperial court sent Qin Cha to use the gold medal to transfer Yue Fei's class back to the dynasty, and it was twelve gold medals at the first shot. Yue Fei did not understand that at this critical moment, the emperor wanted to transfer himself back to Beijing. But there was no way, the emperor's order was difficult to violate, and he could only return to Beijing.
But Yue Fei never expected that this trip would never embark on the road of no return. Not long after, the traitor Qin Ju beat Yue Fei into prison for treason, and finally falsely preached the Holy Will and secretly killed him at the Fengbo Pavilion. This is the process of Yue Fei's murder that everyone knows.
Judging from this story, who killed Yue Fei is clear, so why should it be said that Yue Fei's murderer is a mystery? Is Yue Fei's death really that simple? Many experts have questioned Yue Fei's murder, and historians have been debating it. Some people believed that it was Qin Ju who killed Yue Fei, and there was no objection. So what's the evidence?
On the eve of the great war, Yue Fei was recalled by the Twelve Gold Medals
Evidence one, after Qin Jun's return to the south, because he served Hui Qin Ersheng in the north, plus his idea of governing the country was very in tune with Emperor Gaozong's Zhao Shuo, he was highly valued by the emperor. In the ninth year of Shaoxing, that is, in 1140 AD, Qin Ju was sent to negotiate peace with the Jin Kingdom. In fact, at that time, Yue Fei and another famous anti-Jin general, Han Shizhong, had already defeated Jin Guo on the front line, so Jin Guo quickly signed a peace negotiation agreement.
However, Emperor Zhao, who did not know the inside story, actually believed that the success of the peace talks was the credit of Qin Juniper, and wanted to promote Qin Juniper to the rank of Chancellor. When Qin Juniper heard this news, he was so happy that he woke up laughing in his dreams. However, he did not expect that in the end, the emperor rewarded him with only gold and fields, and there was no promotion of officials at all. What's going on? Later, when I inquired, the key time was that Yue Fei participated in a book. From this point on, Qin Huai regarded Yue Fei as a thorn in the flesh of his eye, vowing to get rid of it quickly.
Evidence two, it is said that the two families of Qin Yue have a deep hatred, what is going on? Qin Ju had a son named Qin Xi. This man used his father's power to bully men and women, and did no evil. One day, I saw a beautiful woman on the street, and I had a bad heart, and I wanted to misbehave in a place where no one was.
But I didn't expect Yue Yun to happen to pass by. We know that Yue Yun's hand made a pair of bright silver hammers, which were improper on the battlefield. And Qin Xi was a playboy, so how could it be his opponent. It is said that at that time, Qin Xi saw that he could not defeat Yue Yun, so he pulled out his dagger and prepared to sneak up on Yue Yun, but yue Yun kicked him off the cliff, which was the vendetta between the Yue and Qin families.
Although the Qin family at that time was in a loss, this matter did not dare to delve into it. But once the opportunity is caught, can Qin Ju not take revenge? Experts believe that this should also be the reason why Qin Ju killed Yue Fei's father and son.
Also, if Qin Ju wanted to kill Yue Fei, it was also an arrow that had to be sent on the string. When Yue Fei was recalled to Lin'an by 12 gold medals, a very strange situation occurred at that time. The holy decree that Yue Fei had returned from said: "The emperor has state affairs and must consult with Yue Fei." However, after Yue Fei returned to the capital, he asked to see the emperor several times, but the reply he received was "Holy Bow Violation of Peace". The emperor was unwell and did not see him for the time being. What was even more strange was that not long after, the emperor also sent a message, sealing Yue Fei as a shaobao, but at the same time asking him to surrender his military power.
Qin Ju was deeply impressed by Emperor Gaozong and sent him to negotiate peace with Jin Guo
Why is that? It is said that the reason at that time was that the emperor learned that Yue Fei was suspected of having an adulterous affair with jinguo, and the reason was that there was a saying at that time that Yue Fei had a confidant with a red face, and was the daughter of the grand prince of jinguo, Muhan, that is, Yue Fei's mortal enemy and the niece of Jin Wushu. However, it was later investigated that this matter was purely fabricated by Qin Juniper, and there was no such thing, the purpose was to frame Yue Fei.
This incident made Yue Fei's son Yue Yun very angry. Yue Yun was also in his twenties at that time, young and vigorous, and it was said that in a fit of anger, he would take matters into his own hands to get rid of Qin Juniper. Unexpectedly, Qin Ju moved his hand first, and Yue Yun was arrested.
In the eleventh year of Shaoxing, Qin Ju took the opportunity to attack Yue Fei. He grabbed Yue Fei, and his subordinates, Zhang Jun, and others used all kinds of torture devices against Yue Fei's father and son, using all kinds of extremes. These traitors were trying their best to make Yue Fei a confession. However, Yue Fei never gave in, what to do? In the winter of that year, in order to cover up his crimes, Qin Ju had Yue Fei taken to the Wind Wave Pavilion and secretly killed him.
Because of the conspiracy of the capitulation faction and because of the personal grudge between the Qin and Yue families, Qin Ju killed Yue Fei, which is a theory. However, other experts believe that there should be a bigger black hand behind the killing of Yue Fei. Why is there such a statement? That's because the place where Yue Fei's father and son were killed is different from the version of folklore recorded in the History of Song.
The History of Song records that "Yue Fei was given death, and Yue Fei's son Yue Yun and the general Zhang Xian were killed in the downtown area." In this way, the killing of Yue Fei's father and son should be a public execution, not a secret execution. The problem, then, is that the public execution was approved by Emperor Gaozong of Song.
Yue Fei was eventually killed by Qin Ju at the Fengbo Pavilion
That would be strange, Yue Feijing was loyal to the country, and he was loyal to the Zhao Family Dynasty of the Southern Song Dynasty. Then why did Zhao Zhuo kill the hero? After careful research, experts found that although Zhao Zhuo was a dimwitted jun, he was not confused at all about killing Yue Fei. The first reason zhao zhuo killed Yue Fei was that Yue Fei violated the ancestral family law of the Song Dynasty.
We all know that the Song Dynasty was the Jiangshan that Zhao Kuangyin captured through the Chen Qiao Mutiny. It was also this experience that made the Song Emperor understand the importance of the army. At that time, Old Zhao understood another truth even more, that is, this opportunity could not be given to others. So what to do? "A glass of wine to release military power", yes, from the beginning of the founding of the Song Dynasty, the Song Emperor paid special attention to not letting the military attaches hold the power, he preferred to civil rule.
So, why did Yue Fei trigger this Fa- First, why is Yue Fei's army called by people? Yue Jiajun. We know that in fact, this kind of name is completely out of the common people's admiration for Yue Fei, but the emperor is uncomfortable listening to it. Obviously it is the army of the state, how did it become the army of your Yue Fei family, is this not only knowing that there is Yue Fei, not knowing that there is my Great Song Emperor? The so-called gong gao zhen lord, the emperor was very unhappy.
Second, Yue Fei led his troops to shock the Central Plains, and the Jin soldiers were frightened. This also made the emperor unable to sit still, why? Such an army is a good hand at killing the enemy, and if he disobeys that day and kills the emperor in turn, wouldn't he be as easy as a palm? Therefore, experts believe that in the subconscious, Zhao Zhuo felt that Yue Fei might be a threat to him, so he killed the killer.
Speaking of the third, Yue Fei Rongma had mentioned many times in his life a long-cherished wish, that he would destroy the Jin Kingdom and welcome back the Second Saint of Hui Qin. But he did not expect that his idea would offend Zhao Zhao's taboo. Zhao Zhuo was worried about welcoming back Hui Qin's Second Saint, and his position was unstable. Historically, for the sake of the throne, there have been fewer cases of cannibalism between father and son?
Yue Fei spent his life on horseback, but died in the emperor's selfish heart
Therefore, experts believe that the reason why Emperor Gaozong of Song has always supported the surrender faction led by Qin Ju, and even did not hesitate to ask for peace with the Jin State, in order to prevent Hui Qin's second saint from returning to the Song Dynasty and thus retain his throne. And Yue Fei's goal directly intensified the contradiction between the monarch and the subject.
As for the fourth reason, it is the terms of the peace. According to historical data, the Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty wanted Emperor Gaozong of Song to kill Yue Fei during the negotiations on peace. Then emperor Gaozong most likely decided to sacrifice Yue Fei in order to show his sincerity in seeking peace.
So, is there any evidence for these analyses and speculations? You really don't have to say that experts have really found a little clue in the historical data. What evidence? First of all, what year did Qin Ju kill Yue Fei? Shaoxing 12 years; in which year did Qin Ju die? Shaoxing 25 years, in the middle of a full 13 years, so many years, GaoZongke has never found Qin Ju trouble on this matter.
It was not until after Qin Jun's death, out of high popular anger, that Emperor Gaozong had to deal with Qin Juniper's henchmen. He also rehabilitated the people who were persecuted by Qin Ju many times.
But it is very strange that Yue Fei's rehabilitation was only done after Emperor Xiaozong ascended the throne. Why? Does this just show that in the matter of killing Yue Fei, Emperor Gaozong Zhao was the operator behind the scenes? Therefore, both Gaozong and Qin Ju should be the culprits in killing Yue Fei.
