Chapter 1,377: Totally Loyal to Yue Fei
As soon as Dad He smashed the door lock with a sledgehammer, a choking dust filled the air.
The old house was empty, there was nothing, and there was a thick layer of dust everywhere. Only the paper crane was floating in the air, circling and flying around the beam.
"The secret is hidden in the beams." I calculated with my fingers, turned around and said to the He family and his son: "Just now I caught a guilty soul and attached it to the paper crane, forcing it to search all the way here. I must have The gods that bless your He family are here."
Dad He looked up and suddenly slapped his forehead: "By the way, when I was a child, there was a leather suitcase hanging on the beam. Look, it's still there now."
Following the direction of his finger, I looked up and saw that there was indeed something hanging close to the side of the beam, but the box was so dirty that I couldn't even notice it if I didn't look carefully.
He An ran out in a hurry and carried back a ladder.
Dad He insisted on getting it by himself in order to show respect for his ancestors, so we had to support him and carefully take off the suitcase from the beam.
This suitcase is made of fine agarwood, because agarwood can emit a frightening aroma that is frightening to insects and ants, so it has not shown any signs of being infested by insects for so many years.
Agarwood was a very precious wood in ancient times. It seems that this box is of great significance to the ancestors of the He family.
Dad He gently dusted the box and handed it to me very solemnly!
I curiously opened the box and was a little disappointed, because the box was not a gold or silver antique, but an ordinary piece of white silk cloth. The edges of the silk cloth were all torn and broken. It looked like it was from It looks like the clothes are torn off.
I unfolded it slowly and very carefully, and saw a large number of dragons and phoenixes written on the white silk cloth.
All of them are bright and blood-red, and it turns out to be a blood book!
I read it carefully and then slowly read it aloud: "Ten years of work will be wasted in one day." All the acquired counties will be rested in one day. "
This is……
My voice suddenly got stuck. This turned out to be Yue Fei's suicide note!
Speaking of Yue Fei's name, I'm afraid everyone in China knows it. Yue Fei is from Tangyin, Henan Province. He became a disciple of Zhou Tong when he was a child, learning marksmanship and riding skills. As an adult, he has become a master of martial arts and has never met his opponents.
After knowing that Yue Fei had the idea of serving the country, Yue Fei's mother tattooed the four characters "Serve the country with loyalty" on his back, so that he would never forget his original intention in this life.
Yue Fei did not disappoint his mother. After joining the army, he experienced the Battle of Yancheng, the Great Victory of Yingchang, etc. He wiped away the shame of the Southern Song Dynasty. He was named the Jiedu Envoy at the age of thirty, and launched a campaign of "attacking Huanglong and facing the Yellow River". The slogan "Return to the Second Saint" was praised by later generations as the first of the "Four Generals of ZTE".
It was a pity that there was a treacherous minister Qin Hui in the court at that time, and the emperor Zhao Gou did not want to fight. Therefore, when Yue Fei wiped out Zhuxian Town and prepared to launch a general attack on the Jin soldiers, he received twelve gold medals from the court and ordered him to immediately return to the court. .
You must know that everything today was achieved by the Yue Family Army with countless lives. Seeing that the country can be proud and proud, how can all the previous efforts be wasted?
But Yue Fei gritted his teeth and vomited blood, and finally obeyed the emperor's order. Soon after returning to the court, he was falsely accused of treason and was killed by Qin Hui in the Fengbo Pavilion.
…
In addition to the blood book, there is also a small token in the parchment.
It says "upright and upright" on it, and the word "zhu" is engraved on the back.
As soon as I saw this thing, I immediately understood it all.
This token was left by He Zhu, the ancestor of the old He family, and the official who interrogated Yue Fei was He Zhu!
Speaking of He Zhu, his presence was originally very low, because he was Qin Hui's lackey and specialized in serving the capitulation faction. However, when facing Yue Fei, he did an earth-shattering thing.
When Yue Fei was imprisoned in Dali Temple on "unfounded" charges, Qin Hui secretly asked his lackey He Zhu to preside over the case. The meaning was: That's about it. Just find any charge to throw Yue Fei off, and you will have completed the task.
He Zhu thought the same way at first, thinking about how Yue Fei planned a rebellion, how to support his troops and respect himself, and forced Yue Fei to confess.
But Yue Fei, who was covered in bruises and bruises, said that his answer was only four words.
He Zhu curiously asked what four words it was? Yue Fei immediately took off his shirt and exposed his back. On it were the four characters "Serve the country with all your loyalty" tattooed by his mother.
Seeing these four words, and then thinking of the scene where Yue Fei sacrificed his life and blood for the country and the nation, He Zhu's eyes slowly became moist, and the conscience in his heart was slowly awakened.
He finally understood that the person in front of him was out of reach for his whole life.
This is the hope of a country and the soul of a nation! The most important thing is that he was wronged.
He Zhu tore up the paper filled with accusations, and then went down to the hall to dress Yue Fei himself. Tell Yue Fei that although he has been confused all his life, he has to do a big thing today, a big thing that he must do even if his whole family is executed and the emperor is offended.
That is to clear away the grievances of Marshal Yue!
So Yue Fei wrote a letter in blood and gave it to He Zhu. He Zhu held Yue Fei's blood letter in his own hands and went to beg Qin Hui and the emperor.
But Zhao Gou and Qin Hui were determined to execute Yue Fei, so how could they listen?
He Zhu stood in the main hall, crying bitterly, and shouted loudly: "Yue Fei served his country with loyalty, and he is the pillar of the Song Dynasty! How can he kill a general on an unfounded charge? There is no way in the world to recover."
He shouted loudly in the palace, causing all the courtiers in the palace to weep.
As Qin Hui's confidant, He Zhu was able to retain his conscience at critical moments. Every time I read "The Biography of Yue Fei" and "History of the Song Dynasty" and see this, I am extremely amazed!
Of course, He Zhu alone could not sway Zhao Gou's murderous intention. In the end, Yue Fei was strangled to death in the Fengbo Pavilion on a snowy night on an unfounded charge.
As a result, He Zhu was hated by Qin Hui, and was demoted one after another and sent to the border areas.
But precisely because of this incident, He Zhu's name will remain in the annals of history forever!
It is said that at that time, all civil and military officials in the court avoided talking about Yue Fei's case and refused to save him until he died. Even Yue Fei's generals Wang Gui, Fu Xuan and others also added insult to injury and helped Qin Hui figure out how Yue Fei conspired to rebel.
For a time, everyone in Yue Fei betrayed his relatives, but He Zhu alone stood up to clear his grievances. This kind of kindness was something Yue Fei would never be able to repay.
That's why after Yue Fei's death, a ray of Yin spirit would live in the blood book and protect the He family from generation to generation, just like He Zhu fought to the death to protect himself...
He An and his son were also familiar with this period of history. After listening to my explanation and seeing the blood book, they immediately understood everything.
"Be upright and upright." Dad He held the token in both hands and his eyes became a little moist: "It turns out that our ancestors let us, the old He family, be lawyers for generations to be fair and just and worthy of our own conscience. That's why. Get up!"
"It is precisely because of this that a ghost of Yue Fei will always live in the blood book, protecting the descendants of your He family from wind and rain.
As long as there is any evil spirit, disaster will not come close to the descendants of the He family. This can be regarded as the best thank you to your He family for upholding justice for generations! "After I finished speaking, I handed the blood book in my hand back to He An.
The corners of He An's eyes were wet. He took the blood book with both hands and said with a tearful tone: "Master Zhang, can you let me meet Marshal Yue? I want to express my gratitude to him in person for protecting our He family for generations."
"Okay!" I nodded heavily.
Faced with such a positive family, I had no reason to refuse their request.
The He family and his son and I just came out of the old house, and the villagers also rushed over one after another. It is said that all the children's illnesses have been cured, and all the corpses of guilty souls in the pool have been disposed of. If I hadn't happened to catch up, all the children would have suffered!
They were all holding chicken, duck and local wine, hoping that I would accept it, especially the big sister-in-law who wanted to beat me up. She was extremely enthusiastic about wanting me to be the godfather of her children.
The corpses in the pool should all be those sent by Qin Hui to assassinate He Zhu. Under the protection of Yue Fei's Yin spirit, they all died unexpectedly and were imprisoned.
At this time, under my leadership, this evil place was finally completely removed, and the village returned to its former tranquility.
The next day, He An's whole family, young and old, took the blood letter with me and boarded the train to Hangzhou. On the bank of the West Lake in Hangzhou is where the Yuewang Temple is located.
On the way, Dad He said that in response to President Xi’s call at the 19th National Congress, he had contacted the cultural relics protection department and wanted to donate this blood letter to the Yuewang Temple so that generations of Chinese people could see how Marshal Yue served the country with all his loyalty. , how to die unjustly!
Even without Yue Fei's protection from now on, their family can continue the spirit of "uprightness and justice" forever and be a good lawyer.
I also followed my promise and summoned Yue Fei's ghost in front of the Yuewang Temple to let the He family see him for the last time.
That day, Yue Fei's Yin spirit was wearing golden armor and had a resolute look on his face. He looked at the four characters "Give me back my rivers and mountains" in front of the temple and remained silent for a long time.
That day, all the men, women, and children of the He family knelt down in front of the Yuewang Temple, kowtowed to express their gratitude, and cried loudly!
(ps: According to Song historical records, the tattoo on Yue Fei's back should read "Serve the country with all his loyalty" rather than "Serve the country with loyalty", so the official history version is used here.)
