Yue Fei, courtesy name Pengju, was born in the second year of Chongning, Huizong of the Song Dynasty (AD 1103), and was a famous general at the turn of the two Song Dynasties. In the twelfth year of Shaoxing, Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty (AD 2), he was killed on an "unfounded" charge, at the age of 40. Yue Fei
After he was killed, the jailer Wei Shun risked his life to carry his body across the city wall and buried him hastily next to Jiuqucong Temple. After Song Xiaozong succeeded to the throne, he immediately ordered Yue Fei Zhaoxue and offered a high reward for Yue Fei's body. After obtaining it, he would be buried in a grand ceremony.
He was buried at the foot of Qixialing in the ceremony. In the fourth year of Jiatai of Emperor Ningzong of the Song Dynasty (AD 1204), Yue Fei was posthumously named King of Hubei, with the posthumous title of Wu Mu, and later the posthumous title of Zhongwu.
Yue Fei's death was considered the most serious injustice in history. At that time, people were filled with resentment. The fried dough sticks were once called "fried Chinese cypress", and even a military colonel attempted to assassinate Qin Hui. Not only because of Yue Fei's talent, but also because of his injustice.
After his death, Yue Fei was a martial saint until the end of the Ming Dynasty. It was not until the Manchu Qing Dynasty downplayed Yue Fei and promoted Guan Yu as a martial saint for well-known reasons that his reputation was slightly reduced.
Thinking of Yue Fei, Yunxi was slightly absent-minded. After a while, he said: "There is no need to clear out the corner of the West Lake tomorrow. I will visit the Yuewang Temple and pay homage to Yue Fei's tomb."
After that, several people left and Yunxi returned to the backyard.
Seeing Yunxi, Yunzhi immediately asked: "Brother, are you going to visit the West Lake tomorrow?"
Her eyes were full of high expectations, but Yunxi could only say: "No, I will go to Yuewang Temple tomorrow to mourn Yue Fei."
"In memory of Yue Fei?" Yunzhi murmured to herself, and then said: "Is there a Yue Fei Temple in Hangzhou? My sister doesn't know."
"Since there is a Yue Fei Temple in Hangzhou, it is only right to mourn Yue Fei. My sister will also go there tomorrow."
"What are you going to do!" Yunxi shouted.
"Of course I want to pay homage to the eternally famous general Yue Pengju." Yunzhi said.
"Forget it, you can go as long as you want, but don't do anything rude at all." Yunxi warned. There are more rules for worshiping the dead than for meeting the living. If there is anything inappropriate in the slightest, I'm afraid he will be reprimanded.
Official impeachment memorials were inundated.
"Don't worry, Brother Huang, my sister will remember." Yunzhi said.
"Yue Fei, who is Yue Fei?" Such a childish voice suddenly sounded. Yunxi looked back and saw Baoqing and Xianqin walking over accompanied by the palace maid.
"Auntie, I know who Yue Fei is. Yue Fei was a famous general in the Zhao and Song Dynasties, and he won many battles with the Jin Kingdom. But the emperor at that time, I forgot his name, was a fool. He issued twelve gold medals in a row to make Yue Fei retreat. Yue Fei
He had no choice but to retreat. Later, the treacherous Prime Minister Qin Hui was jealous of the virtuous and capable, so he falsely accused him of treason and executed him. After the emperor's son came to the throne, he rehabilitated Yue Fei," Xian Qin said.
"My father really likes to hear about the book "Wu Mu Jing Zhong Zhuan", so I have also heard it... Yue Fei wrote on the paper asking him to plead guilty, 'The sky is clear, the sky is clear...' She came to the scene.
A piece of storytelling.
"It seems that he was a very loyal minister," Bao Qing waved his hand, "Since he is so worthy of mourning, I will also go to mourn him tomorrow."
"Brother Emperor, I also want to go and pay my respects." Xian Qin also said.
Yunxi had given up treatment at this time and said, "Then let's all go." Yunxi then ordered Li Shaer to go tomorrow.
But Yunxi still made preparations. He ordered Nu Guan Ji, who usually took care of Baoqing, and Nu Guan Li, who took care of Xianqin: "If Baoqing or Xianqin have the slightest possibility of causing trouble, pick them up immediately." The two of them.
Busy promises.
The next morning, it was just dawn. Yunxi got up, washed up, greeted everyone for breakfast, and then went to the Yuewang Temple in the northwest of West Lake.
When they arrived at the place, the guards soldiers and Hangzhou police brought here had already made it clear that there was no one there except a few waiting officials, but there were countless people who came after hearing the news. These people saw the emperor's car driving over.
Immediately kneel down and shout long live the mountain.
Yunxi asked the guards to tell the people that today the emperor came to mourn the king of E and asked the people to disperse. Some people who had something to do at home dispersed, but most of the people were still around the perimeter, and there were more and more people, and there were many people from one house and two people.
County health officials and local children came to watch, although they couldn't actually see anything.
Yunxi didn't pay attention to them, got out of the car and walked into the temple. Then while everyone was stunned, Yunzhi and others also got out of the car and walked into the Yuewang Temple.
Yunxi walked into the temple and looked at the statue of Yue Fei, and then looked at the plaques placed beside it: it is said that there is "Return my country" written by Yue Fei himself, "Serve the country with loyalty" written by Song Xiaozong, and several others.
plaque.
Yunxi said: "Bring me a pen."
Yuewang Miao Miao Zhu, who had been prepared for a long time, brought pen, ink, paper and inkstone and placed them in front of Yunxi.
Yunxi picked up his pen and wrote the four words "China's Backbone" and the four words "loyalty and filial piety without parallel" on another piece of paper. He also ordered: "Engrave these two words on me as a plaque and hang it in the temple.
forward."
Miao Zhu bowed and agreed, holding Yun Xi's calligraphy treasure in both hands before stepping back.
Yunxi looked at the statue for a moment and said, "It is my will to confer Yue Fei the title of Jingzhong Wusheng Prince." He also said, "Does Yue Fei have any descendants?"
Hu Guang stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Yue Wumu naturally has descendants. There are descendants of Yue Wumu's eldest son Yue Yun in the city of Hangzhou."
"Con him the title of Saint Wuhou, and he will not be replaced by hereditary people." Yunxi ordered.
Hu Guang felt it was inappropriate: 'It doesn't matter how you pursue Yue Fei, but it's a bit excessive to make his descendants a marquis.'
But in such a situation, he did not dare to go against Yunxi's wishes, so he could only agree.
After that, Yunzhi and others walked in to pay homage. What surprised Yunxi was that they were all very well-behaved, including the two children, who did not exceed the rules, although it was not in line with the rules for them to come in to worship.
Especially Li Shaer. She grew up among the people, and her views on Yue Fei and Yunxi were different - Yunxi and the others looked down at Yue Fei and praised Yue Fei's loyalty and bravery from the perspective of a ruler; while Li Shaer viewed Yue Fei from the perspective of common people.
Yue Fei admired him, so he admired him even more and was even more excited at this time.
Before leaving the Yuewang Temple, Yunxi said to Hu Guang: "We will allocate funds from the Hangzhou government treasury to rebuild the Yuewang Temple, which should not be inferior to the most exquisite Buddha statues in the local temples." Hu Guang could only agree.
After taking a break at noon, he went to pay homage to Yue Fei's tomb at the foot of Qixia Ridge in the afternoon.
Wang Xi brought countless sacrifices to worship the tomb and placed them all in front of Yue Fei's tomb. Yunxi personally lit a stick of incense for Yue Fei and told the tombkeeper: "During the four seasons of the year, we must never forget to offer sacrifices."
The gravekeeper agreed.
Finally, Zhang Fu whispered to Yunxi: "Your Majesty, please compose a poem for Yue Wumu to show the importance that the Ming Dynasty attaches to Yue Wumu."
Yunxi didn't know what he was thinking at this time, but he blurted out a song called Manjianghong:
"The remaining stele was wiped clean, and the words "chi fei" were vaguely readable.
In the beginning, Yifei was so important, but later on he was so cool!
The result is that the body will die after success, and it will be difficult to redeem it by talking about the pitiful things.
The most innocent, hateful and even pitiable, stormy prison!
Don't you think that the Central Plains will frown? Don't you hesitate to humiliate Hui Qin?
But now that Huiqin has returned, where does this body belong?
I haven't talked about crossing the South for a thousand years. At that time, I was afraid of the Central Plains.
How can a mere juniper laugh and satisfy his desires?"
The scene was immediately filled with elegance and silence. Although the person commenting on the previous dynasty, Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, was not the emperor of this dynasty, he still occupied the title of Jun in the Three Cardinal Guidelines. Under normal circumstances, even the evaluation was just a general use of rhetoric such as fatuousness and immorality.
, how can anyone make a heart-to-heart talk?
To put it bluntly, even if you, as emperor, could analyze the previous emperor like this, how could you say it in public? For a moment, no one knew what to say.
Suddenly a cry came from the outside, and a man knelt down and cried loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for speaking justice to us and other people named Qin. How can Qin Hui alone kill Prince Yue?"
Yunxi came back to his senses at this time and regretted: "How can I recite such a poem in public? I came to worship Yue Fei to promote Yue Fei's loyalty to the Song Dynasty and advocate loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. It was not for Zhao Gou, Emperor Gaozong of the Black Song Dynasty.
It's not to overturn Qin Hui's verdict in this matter.'
Yunxi immediately said: "The poem just now is not allowed to be engraved. I have another poem to mourn Yue Fei."
"The water store returns to the village, and the spring rush rolls over the white sand.
The battlefield is still surrounded by willows, and only crows live in the ruins of the temple.
The river has shed tears for eternity, and the sun has faded in an isolated village.
I have always been dedicated to military affairs and worked hard for China."
Yunxi was afraid that they would only remember the first poem, so he hurriedly wrote another poem:
“The place where the general’s body is buried, the heroic atmosphere of a passing guest.
The Northern Expedition was fierce in life, and Nanzhi was loyal in death.
Mountains and rivers, soldiers and horses are different, but tears and tears are the same today and in ancient times.
The grass on the hill is extremely luxuriant, and the green sky is shining in the sky."
But he turned back to look at the people around him and saw that they had no reaction to his last two poems. He sighed secretly in his heart and asked Hu Guang to carve the last two poems he recited on the stone tablet later.
Standing next to Yue Fei's tomb, he turned around and left.
Then, just as Yunxi expected, the song "Man Jiang Hong"
"Inscribed on the Tomb of King Yue" quickly became known to all scholars in Hangzhou and spread to the surrounding areas at a very fast speed; although the next two poems titled "Inscribed on the Tomb of King Yue" were also sung by scholars, they were far inferior to "Man Jiang Hong"
It is widely circulated and discussed by many people.
Yunxi had no choice but to go like this.
Out of sight and out of mind, Yunxi began to visit the scenic spots in Hangzhou from the next day. The tide of Qiantang River and the sight of Lingyin Temple were all must-sees.
Of course, the most famous West Lake in Hangzhou should be visited. Yunxi not only surprised a group of egrets while boating on the West Lake, but also took Yunzhi, Li Shaer and the others to visit all ten sights of the West Lake. Xianqin is really
She walked into the Leifeng Pagoda and wandered around. When she came out, she muttered a few words, seeming to be complaining about why the White Snake was no longer imprisoned in the Leifeng Pagoda. The people who imprisoned the White Snake were also gone, leaving her unable to
Deliver justice.
It is natural for Yunxi to leave a poem to commemorate a scenic spot like West Lake, so he recited a poem:
"The willows are dark and the flowers are blooming in spring, and the mist on the heavy lake disperses the forest sand.
Wherever the yellow crane breaks through the silent smoke, and sings over Su Di at dawn."
It took five days for Yunxi to visit all the scenic spots in Hangzhou. He finally returned with great pleasure and finally got rid of the depression of reciting a poem by mistake and causing poor publicity effect.
