In 1141 (the eleventh year of Shaoxing), the Jin Kingdom was unable to conquer the Southern Song Dynasty and prepared to negotiate peace with the Song Dynasty again. Song Ting took the opportunity to suppress the generals with heavy troops, especially Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, who firmly advocated resistance to the Jin Dynasty. Wanyan Wushu said in a letter to Qin Hui, "Yue Fei must be killed, and then peace can be achieved." In April, three generals, Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong and Yue Fei, were transferred from the army and served in the Lin'an Privy Council. In May, when Zhang Jun and Yue Fei inspected Han Shizhong's army in Chuzhou, they secretly instigated Yue Fei and wanted to break up the army together, but Fei seriously refused. Qin Hui wanted to frame Han Shizhong again, but Fei saved Han Shizhong again. After Yue Fei returned to the court, he was impeached by Wan Qixi, a member of Qin Hui's party, who slandered Fei for "staying in Huaixi" and advocating "abandoning the defense of Chuzhou", and demanded that Yue Fei be removed from the post of deputy privy envoy. ] On August 9, Yue Fei was dismissed as Deputy Privy Envoy and assumed the idle post of "Envoy of Wanshou Guan". Fei asked himself to return to his old residence in Jiangzhou to rest. Yue Fei had no troops or power at this time, but the persecution against him was still pressing. Under Qin Hui's instruction, Zhang Jun took advantage of the internal contradictions in the Yue family's army, coerced and induced Wang Gui, the commander-in-chief, and Wang Jun, the deputy commander-in-chief, to first accuse Zhang Xian of "treason" and then implicated Yue Fei. Zhang Jun set up a private court and tortured Zhang Xian to extract a confession. With no results, he actually fabricated Zhang Xian's confession "in order to collect Yue Fei's writings to conspire against him." Yue Fei's stay in Jiangzhou was only a short time, and he received an order from the Song Dynasty to call him back to Lin'an Prefecture. On October 13, Yue Fei was thrown into prison at Dali Temple (originally located near today's Xiaoche Bridge in Hangzhou). His eldest son Yue Yun had also been imprisoned before. Yue Fei faced the interrogation righteously and sternly, and revealed the old tattoo on his back with the four characters "Serve the country with all your loyalty". The presiding judge He Zhu was moved when he saw this. He Zhu found out about Yue's injustice and reported it to Qin Hui truthfully. However, Qin Hui said: "This is what Emperor Gaozong wanted!" He changed his order to Wan Qixi to preside over the case. Even though he tried his best, he couldn't make Yue Fei and the others surrender even a single word. Feining refused to accuse himself, and even went on a hunger strike to fight. With the care of his son Yue Lei, he could barely survive. On November 7, the "Shaoxing Peace Agreement" between the Song and Jin Dynasties was reached: the Song Dynasty surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, and all the land north of the Huaihe River was transferred to the Jin Dynasty. Jin Kingdom, and every year tribute to Jin Dynasty is 250,000 taels of silver silk. Although the peace agreement was reached, Yue Fei was never released. Wan Qixi et al. failed to coerce a confession. In order to ensure that he was unjustly imprisoned, he searched for several crimes against Yue Fei and Luo Zhi, such as "criticizing Cheng Yu" and "sitting aside to watch the outcome", in an attempt to convict Fei Yishu of a capital crime. Li Ruopu and He Yanyou, the prime ministers of Dali Temple, argued that Fei was not guilty and tried their best to dispute with Wan Qixi, so they were all dismissed from office. Liu Yunsheng, a commoner, wrote a letter to redress Fei's grievances and was executed in Dali Temple. Han Shizhong, who was unemployed, questioned Qin Hui about Yue Fei's imprisonment. Hui replied: "Although Fei Ziyun and Zhang Xianshu are unknown, the details of their affairs are unnecessary." Shizhong said angrily: "My lord, how can the three words 'no need to be' serve the world? "On December 29 (January 27, 1142), Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty issued an order: "Yue Fei will be killed. Zhang Xian and Yue Yun will execute it in accordance with military law, and order Yang Yi to be executed by the supervisor, and many soldiers will be sent to protect him. "Yue Fei was 39 years old when he was killed in Dali Temple Prison; Yue Yun and Zhang Xian were beheaded. There were only eight final words left in Yue Fei's confession: "The sky is clear, the sky is clear!" When the news of Yue Fei's death came out, the people cried for it. The news spread to the Kingdom of Jin, and the ministers of the Kingdom of Jin drank wine to celebrate. , and said: "The peace agreement has been strong since then!"
In the twenty-fifth year of Shaoxing (1155), Qin Hui died of illness and was named King Shen, with the posthumous title Zhongxian.
His son Qin Xi tried to inherit the throne, but Song Gaozong refused. The Qin family lost power from then on, which made the anti-war faction that had been suppressed for a long time feel that there was hope for Yue Fei's vindication, and demanded that Yue Fei's reputation be restored. Later, in order to encourage the fighting spirit of the Jin Dynasty, Emperor Xiaozong of the Song Dynasty rehabilitated Yue Fei and listed Qin Hui as the culprit responsible for Yue Fei's death. Qin Hui was later deprived of the title of king and changed his posthumous title to Mou Chou. According to legend, in order to relieve Qin Hui's hatred, the people made his image out of dough and fried it in a pan. It was called "fried cypress" and later evolved into today's fried dough sticks.
