What did Yue Fei’s descendants do after Yue Fei’s death?

Mentioning the national hero Yue Fei has long been synonymous with loyalty to the emperor and serving the country. However, he was framed and died unjustly by Qin Huigou, which only increased our pity and admiration for this hero. Today, we are going to explain to you from another angle the fate of Yue Fei’s wife, children, and children after his death? Today, let us learn about this story together.

On the New Year’s Eve of the 11th year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, the joyful atmosphere of reunion and staying up late filled the entire Lin’an city. At that time, Yue Fei and Yue Yun's father and son died unjustly in Fengbo Pavilion on the "unfounded" charge of "rebellion". As soon as the news came out, the government and the public were shocked. The general did not die on the battlefield, but died unjustly in prison, which is heartbreaking.

Qin Hui was so powerful that even though everyone inside and outside the court secretly lamented the death of General Yue Fei, only Han Shizhong, one of the four generals, had the courage to speak out and express his resentment for Yue Fei. However, after being prevaricated by Qin Hui, he did not dare to say more and gave up. After that, no one complained for General Yue.

Everyone knows the circumstances of Yue Fei’s death, but what happened to his children? Yue Fei had five sons throughout his life: Yun, Lei, Lin, Zhen and Ting. Yue Fei's first wife, Mrs. Liu, remarried when Yue Fei was in the army. Based on their ages, Yue Yun and Yue Lei should have been bred by the Liu family. His second wife, Li Wa, also gave birth to three sons for Yue Fei.

Yue Fei had a daughter named An Niang, who was known as the "Silver Ping Lady" among the people. According to records, An Niang got her name because she complained about her father's injustice and petitioned many times, but was constantly blocked and dismissed by the soldiers. Finally, An Niang was extremely sad. In despair, she "died by falling into a well with a silver bottle in her arms." Disappointed by the world.

The eldest son Yue Yun was trapped by Qin Hui and killed together with his father. He was only 23 years old when he died. At that time, Yue Lei was only 16 years old. Yue Lin is 12 years old, Yue Zhen is only 7 years old, and the youngest son Yue Ting is only 3 years old. In 1141, the eldest son Yue Yun and the second son Yue Lei were married and had children. At that time, Yue Fei's eldest grandson Yue Fu was 4 years old, and his eldest granddaughter Yue Auntie was 3 years old.

When Yue Fei and his eldest son Yue Yun were imprisoned, the second son Yue Lei was not convicted of the same crime, but he was also thrown into prison together to take care of Yue Fei according to Song law. After Yue Fei's death, Yue Lei, who had been physically and mentally battered for a long time, was sent to exile and died in exile. Yue Yun's wife and children were also sent to Lingnan.

Li Wa, Yue Zhen, and Yue Ting were exiled to Huizhou. Local officials detained the mother and son in a small earthen house for twenty years. For twenty years of exhaustion, Yue Fei's widow suffered a lot of torture and suffering, enduring hardships and sorrows that ordinary people could not bear. In 1162 (the 32nd year of Shaoxing), shortly after Song Xiaozong ascended the throne, he issued an edict to rehabilitate Yue Fei.

At that time, Song Xiaozong issued an edict: Yue Lin (33 years old) Fuyou Chengshilang (civilian, ninth grade), Yue Zhen (28 years old), Yue Ai (24 years old) Bu Baoyilang (Martial position, ninth grade). Yue Yun's eldest son Yue Fu (25 years old), second son Yue Shen (22 years old), Yue Lei's eldest son Yue Jing (21 years old), second son Yue Wei (20 years old), third son Yue Gang (14 years old), fourth son Yue Ji (12 years old), Yue Fei's son-in-law Gao Zuo, and Yue Lin's eldest son Yue Chen were appointed Chengxinlang (military rank, ninth rank).

This year, Yue Yun’s eldest daughter, Aunt Yue, was 24 years old, Yue Lei’s eldest daughter, Yue Erniang, was 23 years old, his second daughter, Yue Sanniang, was 17 years old, and Li Wa was 62 years old. Yue Fei's three granddaughters had already passed the marriageable age of Song Dynasty (men were 15 years old and women were 13 years old) due to their long-term detention, and they became older leftover girls. Although he has lost the name of a sinner, he still suffers and suffers a lot, which makes people feel sorry for him.

Despite this, although Yue Fei's descendants were given humble official positions, the family's grievances were finally redressed, and the dead wood was finally restored. The story of "serving the country with loyalty" is familiar to everyone. Yue Fei was loyal and courageous throughout his life. Although "thirty years of fame and fame are dust and dust, and eight thousand miles of clouds and moons", "Gaozong could not bear to abandon the central plain, so he could not bear to kill him". Alas!

Yue Fei served his country loyally throughout his life and will be remembered forever after his death.

His descendants no longer strive to inherit the aspirations of their ancestors. What kind of state of mind does this feel like?
