Castle peak is fortunate to bury loyal bones, while white iron casts innocent courtiers. ? These two poems are couplets in front of Yue Fei's tomb.
Yue Fei's tomb was built in Qixia Ridge under the West Lake, with dense cypresses and lush greenery. There are four iron statues under the que, with their hands behind their backs, kneeling in front of the tomb. The loyal bone buried in Qingshan is Yue Fei, and the courtiers cast by Bai Tie are several people who persecuted Yue Fei that year. In fact, castle peak and white iron are not spiritual. The world admires Yue Fei, spurns the villain, and then salutes the castle peak and curses the statue.
But in fact, there are five statues kneeling in front of Yue Fei's tomb, and now there are only four. Who are those five people? What did they do? Why didn't the fifth person kneel down?
Qin Gui and his wife's trap
As we all know, Qin Gui is the chief culprit who framed Yue Fei and forced him to death. But this will not happen overnight. In fact, as early as a long time ago, Qin Gui planted a cancer in the court of the Southern Song Dynasty, and Yue Fei was a loyal minister who died under his conspiracy.
Qin Gui was the highest emperor in the history of the empire in the Northern Song Dynasty. After the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, he was also captured by nomadic people such as Hui Zong and Qin Zong. But he was glib and kowtowed to the rulers of the Jin Dynasty, saying that he could seduce the Southern Song Dynasty. So, soon, he and his wife Wang were sent back to the Southern Song Dynasty under the rule.
Before that, Song Gaozong also attached great importance to Yue Fei and relied on Yue Fei to support him. After all, Yue Jiajun, led by Yue Fei, has strict military discipline and is well known. Freeze to death without tearing down the house, starve to death without robbing it? Moreover, the repeated victories on the battlefield have made the enemy fearful. If Yue Fei can gallop on the battlefield, there is still great hope to recover lost ground. But Song Gaozong, like Hui Zong and Qin Zong above, was still afraid of death and greedy for life, and always had the idea of making peace with nomadic people.
After Qin Gui came back, Song Gaozong was highly regarded by him and made him prime minister. Qin Gui also spared no effort to soften the fighting spirit of the Southern Song Dynasty, whitewashing peace and feasting. ? Warm winds make tourists drunk and Hangzhou a continent? The irony of this sentence is that the rulers at that time indulged in debauchery and stole peace.
Yue Fei, who has always insisted on resisting gold, is still purging the army and expanding the team. Song Gaozong once asked him when the world would be peaceful. Yue Fei looked at the chaos in the DPRK and sighed: civil servants don't love money, and military officers don't hesitate to die. The world is at peace!
In this way, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and other anti-Jin factions are in the same boat. Song Gaozong is a behind-the-scenes supporter of the pacifists, and the outcome is doomed. Qin Gui knew that the victory was in the bag, and when he saw that Yue Fei would win, he incited the demon wind and encouraged Song Gaozong to call Yue Fei back to the DPRK.
How can Yue Fei be content, but Song Gaozong's death warrant generally calls him twelve gold medals, and he can only sigh? Ten years, ruined? Then transfer troops back to North Korea. After returning to North Korea, Song Gaozong and Qin Gui detained him, accused him of having a rebellious heart, and killed him together with his eldest son Yue Yun and his subordinate Zhang Xian.
Qin Gui infiltrated the Southern Song Dynasty court like poison, and was responsible for the decline of the court and Yue Fei's wrongful death. And his wife has been beside, fanning the flames, also make Qin Gui determined to repeatedly deadly trap. So she was cast into a statue with Qin Gui and knelt in front of Yue Fei's grave.
Wan Sixie's accusation against Luo Zhi.
The power struggle in the imperial court often blamed the innocent Luo Zhiren. In order to completely bring down Yue Fei, Qin Gui asked his cronies Wan Sixie to fabricate an example of Yue Fei's infidelity and impeach Yue Fei. He also fabricated evidence that Yue Fei's son, Yue Yun, had written to encourage others to resist the imperial court, oppose the mutiny, and tortured Yue Yun in an attempt to get a confession.
Yue Fei was wronged.
Later, He Zhuxin, who tried the case of Yue Fei's rebellion, couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to wash away the grievances for Yue Fei. In order to firmly grasp the charges, Qin Gui should let Wan Sixie personally hear Yue Fei's case. Wan Sixie is high above, but Yue Fei is a prisoner kneeling in chains under the hall.
He did everything he could to discredit Yue Fei, taking Yue Fei's poems casually as evidence of his dissatisfaction with the court, and interpreting his eagerness to resist gold as an act of seeking reward and fame by a villain. And how does Yue Fei argue? Under all kinds of torture, he refused to admit his guilt. But he knew in his heart that he was surrounded by courtiers and he had no chance to live.
Yue Fei's unjust case shocked the ruling and opposition parties. Under intense emotions, Wan Sixie, Qin Gui and others hurriedly asked Song Gaozong to make a decision early, while Song Gaozong ordered Yue Fei to die in prison. Wan Sixie summoned Yue Fei for the last time and asked him to sign the confession. Knowing that his time was coming, Yue Fei asked for pen and ink, but struggled to write eight big characters on the paper. It's dawn! It's dawn! ? Immediately, he resolutely drank the poisoned wine.
Loyal ministers rebel
Just let yourself wait for him and not dare to attack from afar to win? The contradiction between the pacifists in Song Dynasty and Yue Fei, who has been actively advocating anti-Jin, is inevitable, and he has never been afraid. But what he didn't expect was that the person who should have stood in the same camp with himself betrayed himself, and that person was Zhang Jun.
Zhang Jun, one of the three great military commanders in the Southern Song Dynasty, was originally Yue Fei's boss. He once promoted Yue Fei in the imperial court, so he was very kind to Yue Fei. However, he was born a bandit, with a bad temper, a desire for pleasure and a bad reputation. After being corroded for a long time in the Southern Song Dynasty, he slowly mixed with Qin Gui and Wan Yi.
Zhang Jun was jealous, watching Yue Fei grow from a nobody to a general, and made great achievements. Of course, he is very dissatisfied and often slanders Yue Fei behind his back. Qin Gui watched Yue Fei win battles again and again, and pushed forward the nomads from the base areas. Of course, he was in a panic, so he bribed Zhang Jun to bring down Yue Fei together.
Later, Qin Gui was jealous of the relieving power of Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and Yue Fei, and looked for opportunities to create conflicts. After Qin Gui weakened Han Shizhong's relieving power, Zhang Jun went to Yue Fei, hoping that he could carve up Han Shizhong's military forces with himself, but Yue Fei flatly refused. Zhang Jun flustered, in the heart of yue fei more bear grudges.
Later, Qin Gui and others framed Yue Fei, and Han Shizhong and others rushed to the rescue, but he came and fell, bribing Wang Gui under Yue Fei to slander Yue Fei. He was reviled by later generations because he should have guarded the court like Yue Fei, but he framed Zhongliang because of a dispute of interests. It's really petty and despicable.
Qin Gui et al.
The fifth missing person
Yue Fei was introduced to Zhao Yuan by Song Gaozong, and later in Song Xiaozong, Yue Fei praised him as a master of reviving the Song Dynasty. After Song Xiaozong acceded to the throne, he talked about Yue Fei and lamented. Your family is wronged, I know, and the whole world knows. ? So he accepted Shi Hao's advice, washed away Yue Fei's grievances, restored his reputation, returned his house, pardoned his family, and moved his bones to Qixialing to rebuild the mausoleum. Out of gratitude to the general who resisted gold, the people built a temple for Yue Fei, and the incense was very prosperous.
Later, because they hated Qin Gui and others, some people built statues of Mr. and Mrs. Qin Gui and Wan Yi and knelt in front of Yue Fei's tomb forever to apologize. Due to the boiling resentment of everyone, these statues were slapped and reviled, severely damaged, distorted and unable to see their shapes. Later, it was recast many times, and Zhang Jun was added.
At a casting, people thought that Luo Ruzhen persecuted Yue Fei. Luo Ruyun was ordered by Qin Gui to impeach Yue Fei, and he also slandered Yue Fei among the people. So he was also made into a statue and knelt in front of Yue Fei, so he was the fifth person.
But after a while, people think that the first four people can be said to be the culprit, and they have a prominent life experience and a great reputation. Kneeling in front of Yue Fei's tomb is a matter of course. But Luo Ruji was a nobody and wasted his place for no reason, so when the statue was rebuilt, he was removed. It is not that the people think he is right, but that he is not worthy to kneel down and apologize. So since then, Yue Fei has been kneeling in front of his grave with four statues, and has been apologizing for his crimes.
In fact, later generations suspected that killing Yue Fei was probably Song Gaozong's intention. After all, Yue Fei is Gao Zhen's master. Are those Yuegujun? It's easy to shake the mountain, but difficult to shake the Yuegujun? The name of. The emperor always dislikes that his soldiers have higher prestige than himself. Even if the country is teetering, he should keep his place in this small world. Qin Gui just caters to Song Gaozong and does things for him.
If so, maybe Song Gaozong should be the fifth hidden statue. If he really exists, the other four seats will be unnecessary. But this kind of thing, first of all, the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty would not agree. Today, there are different opinions, and there is no conclusion for a while.
Summary:
Yue Fei was supposed to be a state minister. Later generations said that his talent was above that of Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun, but he was trapped in the Southern Song Dynasty and could not get out.
People say that the times make heroes, but the turbulent dynasty of the Southern Song Dynasty, which valued literature over martial arts and compromised everything, cleared the way for heroes. Yue Fei asked for it all his life? Eat pork when you are hungry, drink Hun blood when you are thirsty, wait for the start, pack up the old mountains and rivers and face the sky? There is no chance to realize our ambition.
Fortunately, today is a peaceful year. Anyway, the hero's soul can rest in peace forever.
