Chapter 28 208 "Unnecessary" Unjust Prison

After the peace talks in Shaoxing, Wushu sent envoys to send a secret letter to Qin Hui, saying: "You beg us for peace every day, but we are worried about keeping Yue Fei. We must find a way to get rid of him." After Qin Hui received the secret letter from his master, he murdered Yue Fei. Qin Hui first instigated his fellow party, the inspector censor Wan Qixie (sound moqixie, Wan Qi is the surname) to present a memorial to the court, attacking Yue Fei's arrogance and arrogance, and fabricated that Yue Fei supported the soldiers when the Jin soldiers attacked Huaixi. There are many "crimes" such as not saving, abandoning positions and so on.After Wan Qixi fired the first shot, another group of Qin Hui's party attacked Yue Fei one after another with memorials.

Knowing that Qin Hui was having trouble with him, Yue Fei offered to resign from the position of deputy privy envoy, and Emperor Gaozong immediately approved it. Things didn't end there.General Zhang Jun was originally Yue Fei's boss. Later, Yue Fei made great achievements and was jealous of Zhang Jun.Qin Hui knew that Zhang Jun was dissatisfied with Yue Fei, so he colluded with Zhang Jun and instigated Yue Fei's generals Wang Gui and Wang Jun to falsely accuse another general Zhang Xian of wanting to occupy Xiangyang, launch a mutiny, help Yue Fei regain military power, and falsely accuse Yue Fei's son Yue Fei. Yun once wrote to Zhang Xian to secretly plan this matter.

Based on the false accusations of Wang Gui and Wang Jun, Qin Hui first arrested Zhang Xian and sent him to the Dali Temple Prison, where he was tortured severely, but Zhang Xian would rather die than recruit.Then, Qin Hui asked Emperor Gaozong to order Yue Fei and Yue Yun to be arrested and brought to Dali Temple for trial. Qin Hui's envoy went to arrest Yue Fei. Yue Fei smiled and said to the envoy: "There is heaven above, and earth below. It will prove my innocence." When Yue Fei and Yue Yun were arrested and brought to Dali Temple, Zhang Xian had already been tortured until his body was covered in blood, and he didn't look like a human being.Yue Fei felt sad and angry when he saw it.

It was Wan Qixie who interrogated Yue Fei.Wan Qixi took out the false accusation of Wang Gui and Wang Jun, put it in front of Yue Fei, and yelled: "Where did the imperial court treat the three of you badly, why did you rebel?" Yue Fei said: "I have nothing to do to the country. You who are in charge of the country's law, can't frame Zhongliang!" Some officials nearby also echoed Wan Qixi, insisting that Yue Fei wanted to rebel.Yue Fei knew that these guys were all Qin Hui's accomplices, and it was useless to defend, so he sighed and said: "I fell into the hands of traitors today, although I am loyal, I can't appeal."

Qin Hui sent He Zhu, the imperial censor, to interrogate him again, but Yue Fei didn't reply.When He Zhu saw it, he was shocked and dared not try again, so he sent Yue Fei back to prison. After reading some case files, he felt that there was really no evidence for Yue Fei's rebellion, so he had to report the truth to Qin Hui. Qin Hui believed that He Zhu sympathized with Yue Fei, so he no longer allowed him to interrogate him, and still asked Wan Qixi to make a crime.Wan Qixi insisted that Yue Yun had written to Zhang Xian, arranging a plan to seize the army and rebel.Without physical evidence, they falsely claimed that the original letter had been burned by Zhang Xian.

Wan Qixi repeatedly tortured Yue Fei and the other three. Yue Fei was tortured and refused to admit anything.One day, Wan Qixi forced Yue Fei to write a confession again, and Yue Fei only wrote eight big characters on the paper: "The sun is shining, the sky is shining." The case dragged on for two months, and the trial was fruitless.All the court officials knew that Yue Fei had been wronged, and some officials boldly filed memorials to defend Yue Fei, but they were also framed by Qin Hui. Veteran Han Shizhong couldn't bear to go to Qin Hui in person, and asked him why he said Yue Fei had conspired against him, and what evidence he had.Qin Hui said arrogantly: "Yue Fei's letter to Zhang Xian, although there is no evidence, but this matter is unfounded (meaning 'maybe')."

Han Shizhong said angrily: "How can the three words 'no need to have' convince the world!" Han Shizhong tried repeatedly, but to no avail, he wrote a memorial and resigned from the position of Privy Envoy. One day, Qin Hui came home from court and drank with his wife Wang under the east window.Qin Hui was holding a tangerine in his hand, scratching the skin of the tangerine with his fingernails restlessly.Wang Shi is a more vicious person than Qin Hui. She saw that Qin Hui was still hesitating whether to kill Yue Fei right away, so she sneered and said, "You old man, you have no decision. You know it's easier to restrain a tiger than to let it go!"

After hearing Wang's words, Qin Hui became ruthless, and immediately wrote a note with his own hand, and secretly sent someone to the prison.One night in January 1142, the thirty-nine-year-old national hero was murdered in prison.Yue Yun and Zhang Xian were killed at the same time. After Yue Fei was murdered, the jailer in Lin'an, Kuishun, secretly buried his remains.After Song Gaozong's death, Yue Fei's unjust prison was rehabilitated. People reburied Yue Fei's remains on Qixia Ridge by the West Lake, and later built a Yue Temple to the east of Yue Fei's tomb.Now, in the majestic and majestic Yuemiao hall, there is a statue of Yue Fei in full military uniform. On the plaque hanging above the statue, there are engraved four characters "Return my rivers and mountains" written by Yue Fei himself, which makes people awe-inspiring.Opposite the gate of Yue Fei's tomb, there are four cast iron kneeling statues of Qin Hui, Wang Shi, Wan Qixie and Zhang Jun with their hands cut back, reflecting the people's admiration for national heroes and hatred for traitors.
