In the Qingming Dynasty, ** anonymously offered flowers to Yue Fei's tomb
On the Qingming Festival in 1954, many wreaths and offerings were placed in front of Yue Fei's tomb, the most striking of which was a beautifully made wreath without leaving the name of the person who sent the flowers.
As a world-renowned hero, it is normal for Yue Fei to attract the worship of many people, but why should this nameless wreath be specifically mentioned today? It turned out that this beautiful wreath was given anonymously by the great leader *** Chairman.
**The chairman's appreciation of Yue Fei as a historical figure is obvious to all. He not only mentioned Yue Fei in public many times, but also praised his heroic deeds.
**The chairman has a deep love for history, especially the emperors and generals in Chinese history. His affection for Yue Fei can be seen from the fact that he once used his name to lay wreaths for historical celebrities.
During his youth, he received a good education and had an in-depth knowledge of many historical heroes. The heroic deeds of these historical heroes have had a profound impact on the chairman.
Since he was a child, the chairman has been particularly fond of collecting books about Yue Fei, and has always maintained this habit, so Yue Fei has become a hero he has admired since childhood.
The chairman is famous for his love of books, he once enjoyed a book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" for a long time, for him, books are as important as life.
On his desk, he can always see "The Biography of Yue Fei" and a few books.
In that turbulent era, the enemy attacked again and again, and the people of the whole country fell into fear. However, these difficulties did not defeat the aspiring youth, who actively joined the army and rushed to the battlefield to fight the enemy with the belief of defending their homeland and country.
Many of these warriors are not even adults, and some are even younger, and their educational opportunities are limited by the system of feudal society, and they cannot read a single word.
In this case, the leadership of the army did not choose to educate every soldier, but used the song and dance drama of the art troupe to let these soldiers know about the heroes of defending the country in history.
Yue Fei's spirit, especially in serving the country with loyalty, became the idol of many people in the army, and his deeds greatly inspired and educated the soldiers and boosted their morale.
**For the soldiers to learn Yue Fei's spirit, he is very satisfied, he will go to the performance about Yue Fei as long as he has time**. Among them, Yue Fei has the most Peking Opera, and he also likes to watch Peking Opera very much.
During the Anti-Japanese War, he played the whole play "Yue Fei" written by Tian Han and toured by Yan'an Ping Theater several times in Yan'an. After reading "Mother-in-law's Tattoo" once, he couldn't help but sigh to the people around him: "Yue Fei is a national hero, he is wholeheartedly for the people and wholeheartedly resists the enemy's aggression."
His spirit is worth learning from our team. As long as everyone is dedicated to the country and the people, the enemy will not be able to defeat us. We Chinese should unite as one against the enemy army! ”
In 1938, during his speech at Kang Da, a student said that he was not very good at reading and could not use the art of war in the book, but he always wanted to learn these well and contribute to the country.
He felt guilty when he thought that he was too stupid to do more for the country. Hearing this, ** shook his head again and again, and said to the student with a frustrated face: "You don't necessarily need people who are good at reading to fight, your ideas are too partial and comprehensive."
Don't mention this, as long as you go to the battlefield and fight the enemy, then you are protecting the country and the people, and you are a big hero in everyone's hearts. And, who said that fighting a war you have to learn something?
There are too many people in history who have become heroes with poor studies! ”
In the torrent of history, it is like a lighthouse, leading everyone forward. The names of Li Kui and Yue Fei he mentioned, which were well known in the army, instantly aroused everyone's cheers.
** continued: "Although Li Kui is not educated, is his battle wonderful?" I don't need to tell you about those excellent battles of his. Yue Fei didn't graduate from a famous school, but aren't these two heroes excellent? ”
Hearing these words, the crowd resounded with endless praises, and many people were inspired to express their attitudes: "We must study hard and serve the motherland." ”
Looking at this group of students with smiles and firmness in their eyes, I felt extremely relieved in my heart. He is convinced that these young students are the hope of the future motherland.
In 1952, ** came to Henan and specially went to Tangyin, which is Yue Fei's hometown. He got out of the car and came to Yue Fei Temple and toured all the way. In Yue Fei's hometown, the first thing he saw was the towering "Yue Zhongwu Wang's Hometown" huge monument, most of the inscriptions on it were engraved according to the "History of the Song Dynasty: The Biography of Yue Fei".
People looked up, and their necks soon began to ache. However, **but still engrossed**, he carefully identified the inscription and read it word by word.
Seeing the chairman's attentive attitude, the staff didn't dare to interrupt him, and they were next to him. He didn't lower his head until he finished reading, and found that his neck was already sore, and he rubbed his neck while smiling and recalling the inscription just now.
At first, the surrounding staff did not know why the chairman insisted on reading Yue Fei's inscription, and it was not until the chairman finished reading it that they understood how deeply the chairman loved Yue Fei.
Wang Tingwen, the magistrate of Tangyin County, also followed, and asked him how Yue Fei's descendants were doing. Wang Tingwen immediately replied: "After our investigation, we found that none of Yue Fei's descendants were traitors. ”
I was so happy to hear the news that I applauded with excitement and said, "Great! Yue Fei is a good person, and his descendants have also inherited his excellent conduct and patriotism, and none of them are traitors! ”
It turned out that ***, who liked Yue Fei, came to Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province to inspect the work. At this time, he met Wang Fang, the director of the Public Security Bureau, a figure who was feared for his diligence and military status.
During this inspection, Wang Fang was assigned to be responsible for the security of the chairman. With all his might, he did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and took the task as seriously as a mythical figure.
One evening, the chairman and a group of people were taking a walk to rest, and suddenly a big rooster appeared. There is nothing harmful about this chicken, it just runs around in front of people.
This little episode made everyone laugh happily, while the chairman looked at the chicken seriously from the sidelines. Wang Fang immediately walked over and asked the chairman, who smiled and said, "Director, you see that you have controlled the masses, why did you miss the big rooster?"
Is it that it doesn't listen to you, or is it that you can't control it? Wang Fang understood what the chairman meant: if the safety work is done too carefully, it will not only make herself hard, but also detach herself from the masses.
Despite criticizing Wang Fang, the performance of the director of public security still made *** very satisfied. Wang Fang's work experience is quite outstanding, he has been responsible for the security of many important meetings, and the leaders trust him very much.
Therefore, when *** came to Hangzhou, the superiors immediately sent Wang Fang to protect the safety of the chairman. This incident is just a small episode of the trip to Hangzhou. During his stay in Hangzhou, the chairman and Wang Fang were almost inseparable, and the two gradually became acquainted.
The chairman didn't like the people around him to offer him, and Wang Fang often made some jokes with the chairman. Once, ** was writing in the house, suddenly put down the pen and called Wang Fang.
When Wang Fang came in, he saw the chairman with a sad face, and he instinctively thought that something had happened again, and only after asking did he learn that nothing had happened. The chairman sighed continuously, and finally only asked: "It's almost the Qingming Festival, right?" ”
Wang Fang didn't know why the chairman mentioned this, and replied: "The day after tomorrow, did you think of something?" The chairman nodded, did not speak for a long time, and Wang Fang also waited quietly on the side.
The chairman seemed to be lost in thought, and suddenly said, "Do you know how many graves there are on the edge of the West Lake? There was a hint of sadness in his tone. Wang Fang immediately sensed that the chairman was unhappy.
But he really didn't know how many graves there were by the West Lake, and he honestly replied: "Chairman, I don't know how many there are, but there are graves everywhere in that area." ”
** Soon answered: "Most of the people who can be buried in that area are high-ranking officials and nobles, they spent all day and wine during their lifetimes, lived in a deep mansion compound, and after their deaths, they also want to occupy a treasure land by the West Lake, how can this work?" ”
Wang Fang knew that the chairman must have made his own decision, and before he could ask, the chairman asked again: "Do you know who said the phrase 'promise the country with your body, what dare you not do'?" ”
When the topic changed too quickly, Wang Fang was a little confused. They were still talking about the grave, but now how did it become a famous saying? And the chairman did not continue to speak, he waited for Wang Fang's answer, thought seriously for a while, and then said: "This is the famous words of the national hero Yue Fei!" ”
After Wang Fang answered, the chairman finally showed his first smile of the day. Wang Fang began to think, the chairman first mentioned the tomb by the West Lake, and now asked Yue Fei, did he want to pay tribute to him?
It is no secret that the chairman loves Yue Fei, and Yue Fei's grave is in Hangzhou, such an opportunity is rare, and it is normal for him to want to go. Then the chairman turned the topic back to West Lake and said to Wang Fang: "Except for the tombs of Yue Fei and other representative figures, all others should be moved."
The West Lake is the West Lake of the people, with ornamental significance, the working people want to rest and visit the West Lake, but the result is all tombstones, graves, it is simply a great scenery! He took a puff of cigarette and continued: "Yue Fei's tomb is different, he is a generation of heroes, leading the brave and good fighting Yue family army, beating the enemy to lose his armor, leaving behind the legend of 'regretting the Yue family's military disaster'.
He had a patriotic ambition and served the country loyally, and his deeds have been widely spread for thousands of years, making countless people admire him. His great contributions to the country deserve to be remembered. ”
The chairman admired Yue Fei's loyalty, and for a while, he couldn't stop, and when he talked about the rise, he couldn't help but slap the table, showing an excited look.
Wang Fang couldn't help but think of Yue Fei's deeds, and immediately answered: "Yue Wang Temple still stands the kneeling statue of Qin Hui and his wife!" This kind of traitor who betrays the nation and recognizes the enemy as his father will forever be engraved on the pillar of shame and will be reviled by the world. ”
Hearing Qin Hui's name, the chairman's expression changed instantly, with a look of indignation, and said: "Qingshan is fortunate to bury the bones of loyalty, and Bai Tie innocently casts the minister!" The two chatted devotedly and praised Yue Fei's deeds again and again, but the chairman also mentioned Yue Fei's shortcomings: "Yue Fei's most ignorant thing is that he is too loyal to the monarch and has no opinions.
The imperial court asked him to fight the peasant uprising, and he aimed his ** at the people. When we learn from him, we must abandon this kind of loyalty to the monarch, but his merits outweigh his faults, and he is still a national hero. ”
The chairman asked Wang Fang again: "Will you memorize Yue Fei's "Man Jianghong"?" "As soon as I talk to someone about Yue Fei, the chairman will ask this question. Wang Fang's face was a little abnormal when he heard this, it's not that he can't memorize, he is actually quite educated.
Wang Fang's family has been farming for generations, but after he joined the army, he deeply felt the importance of reading, and always read books in his spare time. He was willing to show his level of knowledge in the face of the great *** despite being a little nervous in his heart.
He has a Shandong accent, but he is worried about making a fool of himself in front of the chairman. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said to the chairman: "Chairman, I can memorize, but I'm afraid that if you are not fluent, you may not understand." ”
** smiled and replied: "It's okay, it's good if you can recite it, I want to hear it." Wang Fang immediately began to recite, his Shandong accent was particularly obvious, and *** listened carefully on the side, and even followed along in Hunan dialect from time to time.
After reciting, ** immediately applauded and praised Wang Fang without hesitation, which made his face blush. Their feelings were sublimated in this conversation, and the topic revolved around Yue Fei.
Finally, ** said to Wang Fang: "The Qingming Festival is coming, according to the habits of our nation, this is the day to pay tribute to the ancestors." I want to pay tribute to Yue Fei in person, but I can't go because I am busy with official business, so I can only entrust you to do me a favor. ”
Wang Fang immediately agreed: "Chairman, if there is anything I need to do, you can say it directly, and I will do it!" * Say, "Prepare a wreath for me and go to the sacrifice in my place." ”
Wang Fang already had a name in his heart, but he still confirmed: "Is this wreath for Yue Fei?" In whose name is it sent? "Since it was prepared for me, of course it was sent in my name.
But remember that this wreath can't bear my name. * Said solemnly: "According to our customs, the Qingming Festival sacrifices to the ancestors are to pray for the protection of the ancestors.
But I'm not in a hurry to sacrifice my ancestors this time, but I want to pay tribute to the national hero Yue Fei, so you can help me dedicate this nameless wreath to King Yue's tomb. After receiving the order, Wang Fang immediately took action.
The next day, he took a wreath to pay tribute to the national hero Yue Fei, and there was an unnamed wreath in front of Yue Fei's grave.
On March 19, 1960, **in Shanghai, we sincerely invited workers' representatives and leaders of the Municipal Party Committee to **Peking Opera. In order to welcome this distinguished guest, the Jinjiang Chapel devoted itself to a wonderful excerpt of the opera "Mother-in-law's Tattoo".
The actors on the stage are fully engaged, and the audience in the audience follows the ups and downs of the plot, and their moods fluctuate accordingly. When the mother-in-law on the stage tattooed the words "loyal to the country" on her son's back, there was a warm applause at the scene, and some people were even moved to tears.
At this time, ** was also deeply moved, and couldn't help but stand up and applaud warmly. Then, he returned to his seat and said to the leader next to him: "Have you seen this play?"
Every time I look at it, I feel different. He sighed with emotion: "There are thousands of mothers like my mother-in-law in our country. "In his later years, his eyesight deteriorated severely, and he couldn't even read his favorite books.
He could only ask the people around him to read it for him, but they didn't understand the book well enough to convey the spirit of the book. In order to solve this problem, the chairman proposed to match the ancient poems with **, so that the reader can read them more emotionally.
*After receiving the instructions, the relevant departments immediately arranged the production, and finally selected the favorite ancient poems and made them into records. Among them is Yue Fei's "Man Jianghong".
The makers of this piece are very attentive, they know that the chairman is very fond of Yue Fei's books, so the tune is high-pitched and passionate, which can make people deeply feel the great feelings of a patriotic hero.
With its unique charm, this piece managed to win the heart of the chairman, making him love it, and even when he was resting, he would choose ** and let it accompany him to sleep.
On July 23, 1975, the medical team was in Zhongnanhai to prepare for eye surgery for the chairman. As everyone joined hands to escort the chairman to the temporary operating room, the chairman suddenly stopped and asked with concern, "Is it ready?" ”
Although Tang Youzhi didn't think of this detail, Zhang Yufeng still acted immediately and quickly took out the music of "Man Jianghong". ** Echoing in the operating room, the chairman suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and walked to the operating table without hesitation to lie down, and Tang Youzhi also began the ...... operation
