In the film and television drama, every time the Yue Family Army goes out on an expedition, it will carry a banner engraved with "Faithful to the country". The characters on this banner are said to be the same as those on his back. In the film and television series, the person who tattooed him was his mother, and the picture at that time was very strong.
However, as experts continued to study Yue Fei, they discovered that the characters on his back were probably not these four characters. So, what exactly is the stabbing on his back? Who stabbed him? Picture: Mother-in-law engraved for Yue Fei. Stills
As a general, Yue Fei is undoubtedly very successful. He was originally a child of ordinary people. I heard that when he was born, he had a big one. The bird flew indoors, so his mother named him "Fly".
Different heroes naturally have different childhoods. When other children are playing marbles or hide-and-seek, Yue Fei is young and mature, reticent all day, holding various books in hand, and studying hard. After getting a little longer, he went to learn military knowledge and horse shooting by himself. Yue Fei was born with this material, and he was able to open his bow left and right.

Xuanhe Four years, after Yue Fei returned from school, he began to enter the army as a small soldier. Later, through selection, he became the team leader. After he became a soldier, the entire Song Dynasty was full of stories about his fight against gold. Under various spreads, even the image of his mother has become taller.
However, Yue Fei's mother is just an ordinary woman. Is it possible to be smarter than other women? No man has the noble consciousness of serving the motherland. As a woman, how can she think of tattooing her son on the back to encourage him to serve the country?
In fact, there are many fragments of mother-in-law's tattoo that are not mentioned in the official history. Although this part is mentioned in one of the history books, the credibility of this book is not high, and there are more fabricated elements.
For example, Yue Fei has never been a champion in martial arts. I don't know why in this book, but it is said that he was a champion in martial arts. Mistakes like this are not one or two, but there are many, so even if there are fragments of mother-in-law's tattoos in this book, it does not prove that she did this thing.

There were very few drugs used to treat traumatic injuries in ancient times, so many words stabbing them may leave risks such as tetanus at any time. As a pair of ordinary mother and son, Yue Fei and mother-in-law should not have much money to see the doctor. Once something goes wrong in the middle, Yue Fei will die.
From a medical point of view, his mother should not know how to tattoo. Furthermore, although the Southern Song Dynasty advocated the rule of culture, it does not mean that the people all over the country are literate. As a rural woman, mother-in-law has few opportunities to be literate and understand, let alone tattoo her son.
There is also an incident that happened to the mother-in-law, which proves that she is not a very enlightened woman. After Yue Fei became a Jiedu envoy, his uncle was arrested for committing a crime. At this time, his mother-in-law asked him to negotiate and let the government release his uncle.
Yue Fei's character is good, and he feels that his uncle should be punished for robbing the female, so he refuses to save him. However, in order to comfort his mother, he still did his mother's work very carefully. However, no matter how he does his work, his mother is always reluctant.
From this point, we can see that mother-in-law is actually one of ten million rural women, no different from other rural women. Various signs indicate that the mother-in-law was not the person who tattooed Yue Fei.

This story that people are familiar with was originally spread during the Kangxi period, and it also appeared in the form of opera. The scene of Yue Fei's tattooing is very detailed in the play, which makes people mistakenly believe that the mother-in-law is the one who tattooed his son and encouraged him to contribute to the country.
So, who stabbed him?Where's the word? This is not mentioned in official history. However, it is guessed that there are generally two possibilities. The first is that the mother-in-law does encourage her son to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
If she always keeps her mission in order to strengthen her son’s faith, it is possible to ask a professional warlock to tattoo her son. It's just that his younger brother committed a crime in the previous article and forced his son to use an official position to save people, and his mother-in-law does not seem to be such a highly enlightened person.
Since the first statement is so far-fetched, let's take a look at the second statement: Yue Fei himself asked someone to tattoo on his back. You must know that Yue Fei is a truly upright person, and what he pretends in his heart is all national righteousness, and Yue Fei is anxious to get rid of the Jin Kingdom that violated the Southern Song Dynasty.
In order to realize his desire to kill the enemy, Yue Fei served as a soldier several times. His intention to serve the country is true, and in order to let himself remember his original intention, it is very possible to have people around him tattoo him.

Regardless of who helped Yue Fei stab the words on his back, the only thing worthy of affirmation is that there are words on his back. But more importantly, the words on his back are not "to serve the country with loyalty", but "to serve the country with loyalty". This point of has been described in official history.
According to the description in the "Song History. He Zhu Biography", He Zhu had interrogated Yue Fei, and it was the kind of punishment. When Yue Fei's clothes fell off, he found the words "Serve the Country with All Your Loyalty" on his back. Because these four words were soaked in special ink, they were very clear.
There is no explanation about when Yue Fei stabbed him and who stabbed him. History says that "serving the country with loyalty" as "serving the country with loyalty" is largely due to Song Gaozong.

At the time of the Jin Guo invasion, Yue Fei was just beginning to reveal his talents. In the early stage, Yue Fei stood on the battlefield. For many credits, Song Gaozong didn't have the heart to kill him at the beginning. On the contrary, In order to boost morale, Gaozong also specially rewarded the Yue Jiajun with a banner. Out of political means, Song Gaozong wrote on the banner. "loyalty".
From then on, no matter where Yue Fei takes the army, he will carry this flag. When the enemy sees these four words, he will know that it is the Yue family army.
After the Ming and Qing Dynasties, because of the existence of opera and the deliberate arrangement of the emperor, people's ideas were completely biased, so they thought it was the mother-in-law who stabbed the four words "being loyal to the country" for her son.

Now, the story has a history of nearly a thousand years, and it has long been known to all people, and even regards the story as an educational theme. If you tell everyone that the story is false, it may attract a lot of scolding.
However, history is history, and everyone cannot regard the stories seen in film and television dramas as historical content. This is an injustice to history. At the same time, even if the story of mother-in-law tattooing is not true, it does not affect its educational significance.
Yue Fei in history is really a hero, even if there is no story, his character image is also positive. The most important thing is that the hero does not need to deliberately promote his achievements. Because the true national hero has been engraved in our hearts.
