Qin Ju and Zhang Jun were highly praised when they first died, and only after more than a hundred years of death did they fall into disgrace

Wang Moucai, writing some sour words on the Internet, earned some scattered silver and two subsidies for the family. There are several platforms that have opened up Q&A qualifications for me. Often netizens invited me to answer questions from some modern figures, and I chose silence.

In my opinion, the evaluation of historical figures cannot be conclusive, but must wait until a few years later, and be commented on by future generations. People who are too close to evaluate historical figures are easily disturbed by many factors and cannot make fair evaluations. Since I couldn't make an impartial evaluation, I simply shut up.

As we all know, in front of The Tomb of Yue Fei in Hangzhou, there are kneeling bronze statues of Qin Jun and Zhang Jun, and Qin Jun and Zhang Jun have thus become synonymous with the smell of ten thousand years. When Qin Juniper had just died, the imperial court gave him a very high evaluation. Emperor Gaozong of Song posthumously honored Qin Ju as the King of Shen and gave him the high-end and high-grade courtesy name "Zhongxian".

The "Fa-Rectification Table" has clouds: "The dangerous body offers yue zhong?, the wise and the wise are dedicated," and the knowledge is sacred." In ancient times, there were beautiful, peaceful, and evil names. Qin Juniper's nickname, both words are beautiful. Emperor Gaozong of Song gave Qin Ju such a mournful honor, which can be said to represent the imperial court and gave him a high evaluation.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, there were "four famous generals of Zhongxing", namely "Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, and Liu Guangshi". Zhang Junneng was on a par with Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, and his martial arts were really good. Zhang Jun joined the army at the age of sixteen and spent his life fighting in the south and the north, repeatedly defeating the Jin army. If Zhang Jun had died in Shaoxing for eleven years, his reputation would certainly have been very good.

In the eleventh year of Shaoxing, Emperor Gaozong of Song accepted Qin Ju's proposal and negotiated peace with the Jin people. Zhang Jun, a famous general who had made great achievements in battle in the past, took the initiative to throw himself into qin juniper's arms. Zhang Jun volunteered to surrender his military power, which made Emperor Gaozong of Song appreciate him very much. Qin Ju and Zhang Jun, together, framed Yue Fei for rebellion. When Yue Fei was killed, Qin Ju and Zhang Jun were the two main plotters.

When Yue Fei was killed, his identity was that of an anti-thief. According to the convention, the anti-thief should be dead and buried. After Yue Fei's death, the jailer Kui Shun admired Yue Fei and secretly buried Yue Fei's body next to the Jiuqu Cong Shrine outside the Qiantang Gate. Yue Fei's funeral, attended by only one person, was unbearable.

Compared with Yue Fei's funeral, Zhang Jun's funeral and mourning are very high-end and atmospheric. After Zhang Jun's death, Emperor Gaozong of Song posthumously honored him as King Xun and gave him the posthumous title of "Zhonglie". The word "loyal" is a beautiful word. Qin Ju and Zhang Jungang's death nicknames were highly praised by the imperial court, but Yue Fei could only live in mass burials.

Twenty years after Yue Fei was wronged, Emperor Xiaozong of Song ascended the throne as emperor. Emperor Xiaozong of Song decided to go north and restored Yue Fei's official position. Emperor Xiaozong of Song issued a reward to find Yue Fei's body. Kui Shun's son reported to the imperial court and informed Yue Fei of where he was staying. After Song Xiaozong found Yue Fei's body, he gave Yue Fei a high-end atmospheric high-grade funeral and posthumously honored Yue Fei as "Wu Mu".

Although Yue Fei was rehabilitated, Qin Ju and Zhang Jun's evaluations still did not come over. When Song Xiaozong rehabilitated Yue Fei, Song Gaozong was still alive. If Emperor Xiaozong of Song changed Qin Ju's title to evil, it meant that Emperor Gaozong of Song had no eyes and no pearls, and regarded the traitors as loyal subjects. In ancient times, when emperor Xiaozong ruled the country with filial piety, Song Xiaozong was nominally the son of Song Gaozong, and the son said that Lao Tzu had eyes and no pearls, and Song Xiaozong should not have a "filial piety" character.

In the second year of the Kai jubilee, that is, in 1206 AD, a major event occurred, which was the famous "Kaixi Northern Expedition". The Kaixi Northern Expedition presided over by Han Nongxu needed to create momentum, so the imperial court posthumously named Yue Fei the King of E. Yue Fei's prince was there, and Qin Juniper's prince was taken away. Qin Juniper was not only stripped of his title, but also revoked by the imperial court the word "loyal". The imperial court gave Qin Juniper a very ugly evil rumor of "false ugliness".

Han Nongxu's "Kaixi Northern Expedition" ended in failure, and after Han Nongxin was killed, the imperial court posthumously restored Qin Juniper's titles and beauties. The Southern Song Dynasty's evaluation of Qin Jun and Zhang Jun has been wavering. The imperial court decided to carry out the Northern Expedition and criticized Qin Ju and Zhang Jun. The imperial court was helpless to negotiate peace, and praised Qin Ju and Zhang Jun. In my opinion, the Southern Song Dynasty has been too much influence, and the evaluation of Qin Jun and Zhang Jun has not been objective and fair.

After the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, the evaluation of Qin Jun and Zhang Jun by the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty was objective and fair. In the "History of Song" revised by the Yuan Dynasty, the evaluation of Qin Juniper can be said to be a tidal wave of bad comments. When the author copied a copy of the text, he excerpted a passage of the "History of Song" on Qin Juniper's evaluation and shared it with the kings: "Those who are in the position of the two bases of juniper, who have been in the position of the two bases, have robbed the monarch for nineteen years, harbored evil intentions, advocated peace and misled the country, and forgotten their hatred for Qiu Lun. “

The "History of Song" evaluation of Zhang Jun is to affirm his military achievements and criticize him for killing Yue Fei. The original text reads: "The Nandu generals zhang, Han, Liu, and Yue are called together, and Jun is the crown." However, if you consider its actions, there are those who do not. Jun was sent by his heart and teeth, and although Pingmiao and Liu had the achievements of being a diligent king, they could not keep the yue, but also abandoned the Four Mings, and there were many negatives. How about his attachment to the Lord, murdering Yue Fei, preserving wealth and wealth, and flattering the Lord? “

By the time of the Ming Dynasty, Yue Fei's status was getting higher and higher, and he became one of the martial saints of China. Yue Fei's status was higher, and Qin Ju and Zhang Jun, the two murderers who killed him, had a lower and lower evaluation. The official government of the Ming Dynasty cast an iron statue of Qin Juniper and made it kneel in front of Yue Fei's tomb.

Iron is easy to rust, and over time it becomes a pile of scrap iron. The Ming Dynasty government felt that Qin Juniper and Zhang Jun could not just be spared, so they cast bronze statues of Qin Junjun and Zhang Jun, and let them kneel in front of Yue Fei's tomb. Since then, the Yue Fei Temple in the land of Shenzhou has cast kneeling statues of Qin Jun and Zhang Jun. The author once saw a document showing that there are more than a thousand kneeling statues of Qin Jun and Zhang Jun across China.

When Qin Jun and Zhang Jun just died, it could be said that they were praised. They died for more than a hundred years before they became synonymous with the smell of ten thousand years. This phenomenon is very common in history. The closer you are to the era of historical figures, the more unfair people's evaluations of historical figures become. For example, Xu Jingzong of the Tang Dynasty, when he first died, he was highly praised by the imperial court. After Xu Jingzong's death, he was written into the "Biography of a Traitor" by the New Book of Tang, and ranked first among the traitors in the Tang Dynasty.
