Chapter 120 The Famous Minister's Alternative Face 4
Misinterpretation of Qin Hui by History for Thousands of Years
"It's an honor to bury the loyal bones in the green mountains, and the white iron to cast innocent ministers." By the West Lake, beside Yue Fei's tomb, there are kneeling statues of Qin Hui and others. Like, to vent the resentment in my heart.In people's minds, Qin Hui is a spy of the Kingdom of Jin, who betrayed the country and seeks glory; he is a "national scum", betrayed the interests of the country, and framed the loyal and patriotic Yue Fei.Such a sinner deserves what he deserves even if he is allowed to kneel on his knees for another 1000 years.

However, after brushing away the dust of history and restoring a real Qin Hui, it turns out that this is not the case.Qin Hui (1090-1155), courtesy name Huizhi, was born in Jiangning (now Nanjing, Jiangsu).He was born as a Jinshi, and served as a professor in Mizhou and Zhongcheng Yushi in the Northern Song Dynasty.In the Southern Song Dynasty, he served as Minister of the Ministry of Officials and a political adviser, and was named Taishi and Wei Guogong.After his death, Emperor Gaozong named him "King Shen" and his posthumous title "Xianzhong".

Many descendants believe that Qin Hui is a spy of the Kingdom of Jin, but in fact so far there is no evidence of Qin Hui's betrayal of the country, but evidence of Qin Hui's patriotism.

According to "Song History" records in 1126 AD, Jin soldiers successfully raided Bianjing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty.Before the Jin people broke through Bianjing, Qin Hui always advocated resistance to Jin and opposed the cession of land for peace.Under the coercion of the Jin people, most officials in the Song Dynasty proposed Zhang Bangchang as emperor.Qin Hui stood up against it and filed a petition to deposit the Zhao family.As a result, Qin Hui was captured by the Jin people and went north.Qin Hui's move was praised by the people.It can be said that if Qin Hui didn't stand up and make a petition to save the Zhao family, he would not have been kidnapped and suffered, and perhaps he would have become a high-ranking official in the puppet Qi government and enjoy the glory and wealth.

After Qin Hui arrived in the Kingdom of Jin, he received special treatment from Marshal Nianhan of Jin.However, after checking the relevant information, it was not found that Qin Hui had any betrayal during his stay in the Kingdom of Jin. In 1130 AD, Qin Hui escaped when Wan Yanchang attacked Chuzhou.Qin Hui said that he killed "the golden man who supervised himself and came here by abandoning the boat".It doesn't matter whether you believe this or not, but there is no basis for saying that Qin Hui took refuge in the Jin people and became a spy. It is pure nonsense to say that Qin Hui was a spy sent by the Jin Kingdom.For example, "Yaolu" written by Li Xinchuan said that Qin Hui was not a "spies" of the Jin people, but just a peacemaker.The "Three Dynasties Beimenghui" written by Xu Mengshen said that Qin Hui and his family members fled from Sun Village in Chuzhou occupied by the Jin Army to the Dingsi Water Village of the Lianshui Army, and only used the word "fleeing back"."Zhongxing Xiaoji" written by Xiong Ke said that Qin Hui returned from the enemy, and did not say that he was a "spies".There have been examples of escape from outside places since ancient times, such as Zhang Qian in the Western Han Dynasty who fled back to the Han Dynasty from the Xiongnu in the Western Regions.There were also many people in the Song Dynasty, such as Xin Qiji and Wen Tianxiang.

In 1137 AD, Huizong died in a foreign land.In the same year, the Gao sect Qin Hui negotiated peace with the state of Jin.After arduous negotiations, in 1139 AD, with the efforts of Qin Hui, he finally reached a peace agreement with the Kingdom of Jin, known as the "Shaoxing Peace Agreement" in history. 25 bolts of silk. The gold will be returned to some areas of Henan and Shaanxi under the rule of Puppet Qi Liuyu, and the catalpa coffins of Song Qinzong and Song Huizong, and Xu will be returned to the palace, mother, brother, and relatives." If this agreement is reached, Qin Hui will undoubtedly He is the number one hero of the people. Although he pays tribute and becomes a minister for a while, if he knows his shame and is brave, endures the humiliation and bears the burden, the Song Dynasty will have revenge one day.At that time, the common people thought that peace was coming and Qin Zongnan's return was imminent.After the signing of the Shaoxing Peace Agreement, Song Gaozong issued an edict "Emperor Yuansheng's palace ordered Lin'an Mansion to be built on a plan", preparing for Qinzong to rest after his return.If Gaozong didn't want to welcome the second emperor, he could secretly hint to the Jinren not to let the second emperor come back during the negotiations before the signing of the Shaoxing peace agreement.In fact, the content of the Shaoxing peace talks was that Jin Guo promised to welcome back the second emperor...

If this peace agreement was a "traitorous treaty", then the people at that time would not be so happy.Huanxi shows that the people are very satisfied with the content of this contract.In this sense, Qin Hui is not a "traitor".

It is worth mentioning that in the Song Dynasty at that time, the emperor could not execute his officials casually, let alone an important official like Yue Fei, Qin Hui had absolutely no right to kill him without the emperor's permission. "How can a cypress in a laughing area be able to do it?", which describes the embarrassing situation Qin Hui is in.At the beginning, Yue Fei was the general that Zhao Gou single-handedly selected. After the victory in Xiangyang, Emperor Zhao Gou and Prime Minister Zhang Jun relied heavily on Yue Fei. In "Yu Zha", it is proposed to entrust Yue Fei with the important task of "recovering the shame of the country and saving the poverty in the country".

Yue Fei was killed not because he was able to win the battle, but because he was arrogant, arrogant and open-minded after winning the battle.In 1137 A.D., Yue Fei had asked for the establishment of a crown prince, but a military general interfered in the emperor's "family affairs", and his own ability also posed a threat to Gaozong's status.As a general with many soldiers and horses, it is indeed beyond the scope of a general's responsibility to intervene in the establishment of a reserve.From the perspective of human nature, it is impossible for Zhao Gou not to think too much.It can be seen from some things such as "Twelve Gold Medals in One Day" that Yue Fei doesn't like to listen to orders, and it happens often. Use your temper to "go up to Lushan Mountain".In the feudal era, this was called resistance, and it was what the emperor feared most.
Yue Fei did violate Zhao Gou's taboo again and again, but Yue Fei didn't realize it; Zhao Gou's love for Yue Fei went from love to dissatisfaction, to disappointment, to taboo, and finally to resentment.He even changed the name of Yuezhou to Chizhou because he hated the word "Yue", which shows his attitude towards Yue Fei.

It is worth mentioning that Qin Hui still wanted to save Yue Yun's life. He once wrote a letter in the name of the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment, advocating the preservation of Yue Yun's life. "Yue Fei was beheaded for his private crimes, Zhang Xian was hanged for his private crimes, and Yue Yun was a criminal for his private crimes (i.e. he was exiled)." kill.From this point of view, Qin Hui is just a puppet, and the real behind-the-scenes mastermind is Emperor Zhao Gou, who directed the play.
