The grievances between Qin Hui and Yue Fei have been discussed by future generations for hundreds of years, Qin Hui was the prime minister for 19 years, and finally led to the unjust death of the general Yue Fei, so he has been criticized by the world for nearly a hundred years, and even his statue has been made into a kneeling begging for forgiveness.
However, recently, some descendants who claim to be Qin Hui say that there is something strange about Qin Hui killing Yue Fei, and they want to make a game to invite Yue Fei's descendants to dinner, laugh and enmity, so can the hatred between Qin Hui and Yue Fei be easily wiped out through a drinking game by later generations?
Loyal to the country - Yue Fei
Some time ago, someone on the Internet made a footprint map of the places where Yue Fei had fought in his life, and found that almost all the places he went were all over the country, and this is indeed the case, Yue Fei had directed more than 120 wars, and successively resisted Liao and Jin, and his achievements are worthy of praise for all generations.
is such a general who is loyal to the country, but in the end he died unjustly, Yue Fei's life was brilliant and humiliating.
Although Yue Fei was born in a peasant family, he loved reading and had great ambitions since he was a child, and he was conscripted into the army when he was four years old.
After entering the army, Yue Fei showed his strength in the army with his ambition of serving the country with loyalty, and once led 200 soldiers to defeat the thieves in Xiangzhou and capture the thieves alive.
Therefore, he was also able to meet Zhao Gou when he arrived in Xiangzhou, when the Southern Song Dynasty was turbulent and had a powerful enemy, Jin, and was in urgent need of military development.
Yue Fei was also reused because of this, and after Zhao Gou succeeded to the throne, Yue Fei was outspoken and advocated recovering the lost territory.
But Zhao Gou had always been afraid of the Jin soldiers and thought that the Song Dynasty could not win against the Jin people, so Song Gaozong not only did not adopt Yue Fei's suggestion, but even drove Yue Fei out of the army for the crime of overstepping his duties.
Yue Fei then defected to Hebei to recruit envoy Zhang Suo, for whom he expounded his strategic ideals, Zhang Suo was greatly admired after hearing it, and named him Wu Jinglang.
After that, Yue Fei began to lead the troops to fight, and in the second year of Song Gaozong's Jianyan, Yue Fei began to recover Jiankang.
In the fourth year of Jianyan, Wanyan Zongbi approached Changzhou, and Yue Fei led the troops to defend the city.
Yue Fei and Wanyan Zongbi won four battles and four victories, and the people regarded Yue Fei as a hero and built a shrine for him, Yue Fei took advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat Wanyan Zongbi and recover Shandong, Hebei, Hedong, Jinggi and other regions.
After that, Yue Fei went all the way through the pass, recovered the six counties, and proposed the Northern Expedition, but was rejected by Song Gaozong.
Song Gaozong was a survivor of the Northern Song Dynasty's escape, and hurriedly proclaimed himself emperor in Shangqiu, so the Southern Song Dynasty faced the threat of the Jin people at the beginning of its establishment, while Zhao Gou had been on the run, running from Xiangzhou to Dongping and then to Shangqiu.
Yue Fei persuaded Zhao Gou to continue to set the capital of Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo, but Zhao Gou only thought about fleeing.
Zhao Gou's fear of the Jin people is unimaginable to ordinary people, so although Yue Fei was invincible and dominant on the battlefield, Song Gaozong still stopped Yue Fei's northern expedition.
And Zhao Gou is also worried that Yue Fei will support the army and respect himself, which is no wonder that Zhao Gou is suspicious, the people who held the military power in the five dynasties and ten kingdoms can seize it unscrupulously as long as they want to seize power, and even Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, also seized power in this way.
Yue Fei, who was straight, didn't think about it so much, he just wanted to regain the lost ground as soon as possible.
It is said that Yue Fei is extremely upright, does not take a penny from the people during the battle, and will let his son marry the daughter of an officer and soldier who died in the war.
On the battlefield, Yue Fei led the Yue family army to be invincible and terrifying, and even the Jin soldiers sighed that "it is easy to shake the mountain, and it is difficult to shake the Yue family's army".
And when Song Gaozong issued 12 gold medals in a row to prevent Yue Fei from continuing the Northern Expedition, Yue Fei also had to return to the dynasty and lament that "ten years of work will be ruined in one fell swoop".
Unexpectedly, when Yue Fei's class returned to Hangzhou, he had already fallen into the big net woven by Qin Hui, Zhang Jun and others.
Yue Fei was falsely accused by Qin Hui and imprisoned
Qin Hui has always advocated peace with Dajin, which is contrary to Yue Fei who advocates war, Qin Hui is admitted to the Jinshi, served as Taixue Xuezheng, the Northern Song Dynasty at that time was a life and death juncture, Qin Hui as a young man is enthusiastic.
In the first year of Jingkang, the Jin army came to Bianjing and asked the Song Dynasty to cede the three towns of Hebei.
From this point of view, Qin Hui at this time advocated resistance to Jin, so why did Qin Hui openly dispute with Yue Fei, who advocated the War of Resistance?
It turned out that in the second year of Jingkang, Bianjing was breached, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong were both abolished, and the Jin soldiers in order to facilitate the control of the Northern Song Dynasty, so Zhang Bangchang was appointed as the emperor.
After that, Qin Hui and others were captured to the north along with Song Huizong and Song Qinzong, and for three whole years, it was these three years that made Qin Hui have a great fear of Jin Bing.
Three years later, Qin Hui returned to the Southern Song Dynasty on the grounds that he had killed the Jin soldiers guarding him, and by this time he had already begun to advocate peace and oppose the War of Resistance.
However, his arrival made many people suspicious, thinking that he had already become Jin Bing's internal response.
Because he returned to the Southern Song Dynasty with his wife and countless treasures, and when Hong Hao, who was imprisoned with him, came back, Qin Hui actually found a reason to release him.
However, Song Gaozong was full of fear of the Jin people at that time, and Qin Hui's arrival allowed him to understand the situation of the Jin people in more detail, and Qin Hui's peace strategy was also very in line with Song Gaozong's ideas, and Qin Hui was also reused.
Qin Hui proposed to Gaozong the strategy of "south from south and north from north", the content of which was probably to let the people of the Northern Song Dynasty in Hebei, Hedong, Shandong, and Shaanxi return to the areas controlled by the Jin.
In the north, the southerners had to return to their original areas, and this practice was considered humiliating and humiliating to the people at that time.
However, Qin Hui and others did everything they could to achieve their own peace policy, and their biggest enemy was Yue Fei, who advocated war, so they had already set up a trap when Yue Fei's class returned to the dynasty.
Zhang Jun bribed Wang Jun, the deputy commander of Yue's army, to falsely accuse Yue Fei of rebellion, and then more and more people, including the commanders Yao Zheng and Fu Xuan, signed the false accusation letter to convict Yue Fei, and suddenly Yue Fei had several more crimes, including confrontation with the friendly Zhang Jun and attempted rebellion.
These charges were presented to Song Gaozong, who threw Yue Fei into prison.
But Yue Fei's popularity is very strong, especially the Yue family army led by him is even more loyal, and Qin Hui also planned for this, so that Yue Fei's loyal general Niu Gao died violently, and then sent Yue Jiajun's staff Yu Peng and Sun Ge to the frontier.
The Yue family army, which terrified the enemy, became dead and crazy under Qin Hui's operation, and Yue Fei in the prison was also severely beaten.
In 1142, Song Gaozong ordered Yue Fei to be executed, and before his death, Yue Fei left a unique pen "Every day Zhaozhao, every day Zhaozhao!"
In 1162, Zhao Gou ascended the throne, Emperor Song Xiaozong ascended the throne, and Song Xiaozong issued an edict to rehabilitate Yue Fei after he ascended the throne.
In 1179, Xiaozong posthumously named Yue Fei as "Wu Mu", and asked Qin Hui and others to blame, Qin Hui and others were also spurned by later generations, and the grievances between Qin Hui and Yue Fei were also mentioned by the descendants who called themselves Qin Hui in recent years.
Qin Hui's descendants want to resolve a century-old grievance
Qin Liang, a middle school teacher in Nanjing, once appeared in public, claiming to be a descendant of Qin Hui.
Speaking out that Qin Hui has been kneeling in front of Yue Fei's tomb for eight hundred years, for such a long time, all grievances should be repaid, and there is no connection between Qin Hui and Yue Fei's mother, so Yue Fei's mother should not kneel together.
The teacher said that Qin Hui's descendants have been living in the shadow of their ancestors, and now they should come out, and even he proposed to invite Yue Fei's descendants to come out for a meal together to resolve the grievances of their ancestors, and these words also made netizens puzzled.
Yue Fei's descendants also spoke out, saying that the reason for Qin Hui to kneel to his mother-in-law Yue Fei's mother was to let Qin Hui express to Yue Fei's mother the sin of killing the son he raised with his own hands, and as Yue Fei's descendants, they would also maintain Qin Hui's kneeling statue and would not let anyone destroy it.
However, there are not many records of Qin Hui's descendants in the history books, and it is recorded in the history books that Qin Hui and his wife Wang did not have children, but only succeeded the son of Wang's brother as a son-in-law.
Stepson Qin Xi and his wife Zhao have a long line, so the existing descendants of Qin Hui are nothing more than the Wang family, and now it is too late to ask Yue Fei's descendants for forgiveness.
summary
The grievances between Yue Fei and Qin Hui could not be resolved through a few words from Qin Hui's descendants.
Qin Hui knelt in front of Yue Fei's tomb, not only to atone for Yue Fei, but also to atone for the thousands of people who suffered from the Dajin War at that time.
