The change of ancient dynasties, the emergence of countless capable people, the Three Kingdoms Zhuge Liang for the Shu Han did his best, the Ming Dynasty Yu Qian to defend the Beijing City Fu Building, the Song Dynasty Yue Fei loyal to the country......
At the same time, there are also many traitors who have been stinking for thousands of years, they are like moths of the dynasty, and the rivers and mountains they eat are in danger, and when it comes to traitors, Qin Hui can definitely occupy a place.
As we all know, Qin Hui killed Yue Fei, and when Han Shizhong asked him what the evidence of Yue Fei's rebellion was, Qin Hui actually replied:
"It's a matter of no need!"
It can be seen that Qin Hui's power is monstrous, and the lives of other ministers are in his words.
In fact, it was not only Yue Fei who was framed by Qin Hui, but there was also a person whose loyalty was not inferior to Yue Fei at all, and he was also devalued under Qin Hui's slander.
This person is a famous patriotic and loyal minister in the Southern Song Dynasty, who was detained for fifteen years by the envoy to the Jin State, and was still loyal and unyielding and returned with honor, and was known as the "Southern Song Dynasty Su Wu" by the people of the time.
Hong Hao's words are bright, he is upright, he doesn't like to cling to the powerful, and he is not afraid of offending the powerful.
It was the fifth year of Hui Zongzhenghe, the dynasty was chaotic, and the six traitorous ministers headed by Cai Jing controlled the dynasty and were called the "six thieves of the Northern Song Dynasty".
But Hong Hao tried his best to refuse, and was always unwilling to agree to the request of the two, and finally did not join the six thieves and preserved his integrity, but in the future, Hong Hao's career was quite difficult under the obstruction of the two.
Hong Hao was born in the third year of Yuanyou, in that era of political darkness, Hong Hao always cared about the people, and blessed the people with his own ability.
The so-called "humble and did not dare to forget the country", Hong Hao became the head of Haining County after entering the Shishi, and he was an official the size of a sesame seed, but he faced a very complicated situation.
Due to the unscrupulousness of those in power, the people at that time had complicated taxes, and many families could not even eat, let alone pay taxes.
After Hong Hao took office, he was determined to manage the one-third of an acre of land under his own management, and he ordered to change the tax rules, no longer paying taxes according to capitation, but paying taxes according to family income, earning more and paying less, which greatly relieved the pressure on the common people.
For families who really couldn't pay taxes, Hong Hao also took the initiative to pardon their taxes, and the people at that time called Hong Hao a good official and thanked them one after another.
After Haining County was governed, Hong Hao was dispatched to Xiuzhou for disaster relief, when Xiuzhou was flooded and many places were flooded.
The people had neither food nor shelter, so Hong Hao vacated his house, and also ordered the opening of official cabins and the sale of rice at low prices, and the flood was controlled to a certain extent.
But the disaster is too serious, there are still many people facing the situation of starvation, it happened that the tribute rice passed through Xiuzhou, Hong Hao asked people to intercept the tribute rice and send it to the victims, Xiuzhou Zhizhou knew about it, hurriedly refused, in the Song Dynasty, intercepted the imperial grain several heads are not enough to cut.
After Hong Hao found out, he said that he was not afraid, if the emperor blamed him, then he would kill himself, and he was willing to exchange his life for the life of 100,000 people.
This move moved hundreds of people, they respected Hong Hao, called him "Hong Buddha", and later when Xiuzhou rebelled, the rebels passed by Hong Hao's house, they would remind each other, saying that this was "Hong Buddha", and stop each other from going in and robbing.
Later, the imperial court sent officials down to inspect the disaster, and when they found Xiuzhou, the officials were very surprised, according to the intelligence, the disaster here should be very serious, but now the people are living in an orderly manner, not at all like the disaster.
After understanding the situation, I learned that Hong Hao gave the imperial grain to these people, and heard that Hong Hao was willing to bear the responsibility for the crime by himself, so he felt very admired, not only did not punish Hong Hao, but recommended Hong Hao to be promoted.
In the third year of Jianyan, the imperial court was weak, the Jin State invaded in a big way, and the people in the court were panicked, and Song Gaozong did not have the confidence to fight to the death with the Jin State at this time, so he decided to temporarily avoid its edge and move the capital to Jiankang.
After Hong Hao found out, he hurriedly wrote to Gaozong and said:
"The internal troubles are not settled, the external enemy is blazing, if it is as light as Jiankang, I am afraid that the gold people will take advantage of the false invasion. It is advisable to send close ministers to operate in advance, and it is not too late to return to Luan. ”
It means that now the court is worried about internal and external troubles, if the capital is moved hastily at this time, the Jin people are afraid that they will make a hindrance after knowing it, and they should send an envoy to check the situation first, and then it is not too late to move the capital.
Gaozong felt that Hong Hao's words were reasonable, but the Jin people were too strong, and Gaozong always had trouble sleeping, so he didn't take Hong Hao's suggestion, but he remembered Hong Hao.
Later, the imperial court wanted to send someone to sue for peace with the Jin Dynasty, and Hong Hao was chosen, and it was a very humiliating thing to sue for peace at that time, and his life would be in danger at any time.
After all, in the early days of the founding of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Jin State was already very strong, the enemy was strong and I was weak, so the Southern Song Dynasty could only almost grovel, it is rumored that the Southern Song Dynasty sent envoys to the Jin Dynasty more than 300 times, but in the end it still failed to escape the fate of destroying the country.
At that time, the Jin State had no intention of negotiating peace, and the goal of the Jin State was very clear from the beginning, that is, to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty, so most of the envoys sent by the Southern Song Dynasty were not cold, and they were sent away in a happy and humiliated manner, and they were killed on the spot if they were unhappy.
It can be seen that it takes great courage to be an envoy, and ordinary court ministers dare not go, but Hong Hao fought for the country and resolutely embarked on the road to the Jin country to seek peace.
I never thought that this trip would be fifteen years, in such a long time, Hong Hao was not killed, but was courteous at the beginning, and Jin Guo also rebelled against Hong Hao five times, but he categorically refused.
After Hong Hao arrived in the Jin Kingdom, he was immediately taken down, but Wanyan Xiyin did not embarrass Hong Hao, and when he heard that he was talented, he asked him to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and promised to be a high-ranking official.
Hong Hao categorically refused, saying that he would never surrender, and if he failed to persuade him to surrender for the first time, Wanyan Xiyin put Hong Hao under house arrest.
After the Southern Song Dynasty surrendered, Wanyan Xiyin persuaded Hong Hao again, saying that he no longer had a loyal court, and if he turned his allegiance to the Jin State, Hong Hao refused again, saying that even if he returned to the countryside, he would not surrender.
The second persuasion failed, Hong Hao was imprisoned in Lengshan to fend for himself, where Hong Hao met his lover Jin Ge, who was from the Jin country.
After Yan Xiyin found out, he threatened Hong Hao with Brother Jin's life, but he never thought that Hong Hao still didn't agree, and was willing to die.
Wanyan Xiyin admired it very much and did not kill Hong Hao, and then Hong Hao was released back when the Jin Kingdom granted amnesty to the world, and Hong Hao had been imprisoned for fifteen years at this time.
When Hong Hao returned to his homeland, Gaozong hurriedly met him, and because of Hong Hao's loyalty, he also gave Hong Hao a promotion and a reward of silver, so Hong Hao could rely on this without worry.
But after Hong Hao offended Qin Hui, Qin Hui framed Hong Hao in front of Gaozong, and Hong Hao was demoted and died on the road to Yuanzhou.
Hong Hao's life has been full of ups and downs, but whether it is at the end of the year or after the ambition, Hong Hao always puts the people and the country in his heart, and he does not waver in the face of temptation to serve the country.
After fifteen years of imprisonment, he returned from prison and was worthy of the loyal ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty.
