Chapter 32 Tragic Historical Figures No. : Xin Qiji

——I’m so angry that my lungs are about to explode. It’s really incredible that an emperor could be so cowardly.

——A person like this can live to be eighty-one years old. God is really blind!
——It’s really hard to accept. I feel so sorry for General Yue!
——At that time, Yue Fei had already fought to a place forty-five miles away from Bianjing. The soldiers could see the city walls of the ancient capital. Jin Wushu was almost defeated and lost his faith... This Zhao Gou is really incompetent!
……

1140 AD.

The tenth year of Shaoxing.

The Southern Song Dynasty court has just issued the twelfth golden medal.

Zhao Gou roared angrily to the sky in the court.

"What nonsense!"

"How can these people from later generations slander me like this!"

"I have made great contributions to the Song Dynasty!"

"I have made great contributions to China!"

"It was Yue Fei who commanded his own army! He did not obey the imperial court's orders. How could I be blamed?"

"I sent him twelve golden medals in a row before he withdrew his troops! Twelve golden medals!"

"I am the Son of Heaven, my words are law. If anyone disobeys my orders, I will kill him just for this reason!"

Although insulted by later historians with obscene words, Zhao Gou not only showed no remorse on his face, but kept claiming his innocence!
He even felt wronged and thought he had made contributions to the Song Dynasty.

"Warriors like Yue Fei, didn't they fight against the Jin just for fame and salary? I gave them power, food and money. Everything they have was given by me. Why can't I kill them?"

"I have been advocating for peace with the Jin people in order to let the people of the world live in peace. If I can use some land and gold and silver to exchange for world peace, why not do it?"

"But Yue Fei and his men have no understanding of my intentions. What good will it do to our Song Dynasty if they force the Jin people into a corner?"

"Why don't people in later generations understand me?"

"Why doesn't anyone understand me!"

……

As the sky curtain exposed the evil deeds done by Zhao Gou and Qin Hui.

That night.

The anger of the people was like a raging fire, sweeping across the entire capital.

quickly
Outside the Qin Mansion.

Countless people held torches and shouted loudly, their voices shaking the earth as if to tear the mansion apart.

"Qin Hui, you traitor, why did you kill General Yue unjustly?"

"Treacherous Prime Minister, get out of here!"

"Qin Hui is a scoundrel. His crime cannot be forgiven even if he is killed a hundred times!"

"..."

"Destroy this bastard's house and avenge General Yue!"

Someone shouted, and the angry people swept through Qin Hui's mansion like a storm.

They smashed the gate of the mansion, rushed into the house, and smashed everything they saw.

At that moment, the entire capital was immersed in the anger of the people.

If Qin Hui had not been escorted out of the hinterland through a small path, he would have been torn to pieces by the angry people by now!

……

The tenth year of Shaoxing.

This year.

Zhuxian Town is in the midst of war.

After learning that Yue's army would give up the Northern Expedition in the future, they returned to the capital.

Countless people ran out and knelt in front of the army, begging Yue's army not to withdraw.

"You can't leave, Marshal Yue!"

"General Yue, you can't leave. If you leave, the dog emperor will kill you!"

"Master Yue! Can you please not leave? I am willing to follow you to Huanglong Mansion until my death!"

The local people already know everything through the sky curtain.

Everyone knows what a cowardly and incompetent emperor Zhao Gou was. They also know that once Yue Fei returns to Beijing, he will soon be killed by the incompetent emperor on the charge of "false charges".

The people were reluctant to see Yue Fei leave.

They don't want to be slaves of a conquered country anymore, and they don't want to see the heroes they respect being unjustly killed.

They were willing to offer everything they had as food and fodder for the army, and were willing to join Yue Fei's army in the Northern Expedition.

"General, you can't go back. If you go back, all your ten years of hard work will be ruined!"

"And according to what Tianmu said, once you go back, the tyrant emperor and treacherous minister will kill you!"

At this moment, all the soldiers looked at Yue Fei.

Not only did the people not want Yue Fei to leave, the soldiers also did not want him to return.

Because everyone knows what it means once the army returns to the capital!
Yue Fei closed his eyes.

This man, who had never shown the slightest fear despite facing so many Jin soldiers, was now feeling suffocated by those cold gold medals, with endless humiliation suppressed in his heart.

"General, rather than being tricked by that tyrant and killed on a trumped-up charge, it is better to go crazy before you die and attack Huanglong!"

"Yes, General, lead us straight to Huanglong!"

"General, we can't give up, otherwise all the soldiers' ten years of hard work will be in vain!"

Everyone knows that Yue Fei was loyal to his country.

So everyone tacitly just talked about attacking Huanglong, and no one mentioned rebellion.

Because everyone knows that only in this way can we really convince General Yue!
Yue Fei didn't say anything.

I don’t know how long it took.

This stubborn general seemed to have made some decision and nodded heavily under the eager gazes of the soldiers and the surrounding people.

That's right.

Yue Fei decided to disobey orders.

Since we already know that regretful future.

This time, Yue Fei decided to be willful.

In fact, ever since Tianmu announced Zhao Gou's crimes, he has been doubting whether what he insisted on was correct.

Until this moment, until facing the requests of tens of thousands of people in the occupied areas and the expectations of the soldiers.

Yue Fei finally made up his mind and headed towards the place his heart longed for.

Even if, in the future, you may be shattered to pieces and bear the infamy!

You will die eventually.

It is better to die heroically than to be wrongly killed on a false charge in the future.

Die for the country and the people! Die for the people!

"A general is on the battlefield... he has to obey the king's orders!"

A gleam of determination flashed in Yue Fei's eyes!
……

The story of Yue Fei comes to an end.

Above the sky, the picture changed again.

【A review of the tragic figures in history. 】

【The second one is Xin Qiji. 】

——The most powerful man in the Song Dynasty!

——Huo Qubing died young, and Xin Qiji was born at the wrong time, it is hard to accept!
--my idol!
[In 1140 AD, the emperor issued twelve golden medals and Yue Fei was forced to return to the court. His ten years of hard work were destroyed in an instant.

From then on, he became disheartened and never mentioned leading troops to the north to recover the lost territory.

[In May of that year, in Licheng, Shandong, which was occupied by the Jin people, a child named Xin Qiji was born.]

[Two years later, in the first month of the lunar calendar, which should have been a festive day for the New Year, the young Xin Qiji suddenly discovered that the elders in his family were all crying, so he also cried loudly with them in confusion.]

[Later he learned that on this day, a general named Yue Fei was sentenced to death by the emperor.]

[That day, Yue Fei left eight characters on his confession: Heaven will know it all! Heaven will know it all!]
