He became a *jinshi* (successful candidate in the imperial examination) in the fifth year of the Zhenghe reign of Emperor Huizong (1115). He was later appointed as a professor in Mizhou and served as a Bachelor of the Imperial Academy. In the late Northern Song dynasty, he held the position of Censorate Vice Commissioner. After returning south, he was appointed Minister of Rites and served two terms as Prime Minister, holding power for a total of nineteen years. He is infamous for advocating peace with the Jin dynasty and for framing Yue Fei, and is considered one of the \"two great traitors of the Southern Song dynasty\" alongside Jia Sidao.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-greenshift-blocks-container gspb_container gspb_container-gsbp-a2b554a\" id=\"gspb_container-id-gsbp-a2b554a\">\n<h4 id=\"gspb_heading-id-gsbp-ff3e1b4\" class=\"gspb_heading gspb_heading-id-gsbp-ff3e1b4\">Annotation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-greenshift-blocks-container gspb_container gspb_container-gsbp-c3d7aaa\" id=\"gspb_container-id-gsbp-c3d7aaa\">\n<div id=\"gspb_text-id-gsbp-d6cfc41\" class=\"gspb_text gspb_text-id-gsbp-d6cfc41\">False gems mixed with jade disrupt the imperial court: False gems \u2013 stones resembling jade.

The loyal minister Yue Fei encountered misfortune. Qin Hui, using a fake imperial decree, imprisoned Yue Fei and framed him with the charge of \"perhaps not guilty.\" He secretly incited his trusted prison guards to strangle Yue Fei to death in the Fengbo Pavilion. Only after Emperor Xiaozong ascended the throne was this injustice cleared. Yue Fei was posthumously honored as the Duke of E and enfeoffed as King Wumu, leaving the legacy of a loyal hero for all time.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-greenshift-blocks-container gspb_container gspb_container-gsbp-0068caf\" id=\"gspb_container-id-gsbp-0068caf\">\n<h4 id=\"gspb_heading-id-gsbp-13260f9\" class=\"gspb_heading gspb_heading-id-gsbp-13260f9\">Fortune telling by lot<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-greenshift-blocks-container gspb_container gspb_container-gsbp-d99fea7\" id=\"gspb_container-id-gsbp-d99fea7\">\n<div id=\"gspb_text-id-gsbp-63f936b\" class=\"gspb_text gspb_text-id-gsbp-63f936b\">Yue Fei was originally the reincarnation of a Great Roc, and Qin Hui was the reincarnation of an iron-backed dragon. In the past, the Great Roc recognized the dragon as a demon, so it pecked out the dragon's left eye, and blood flowed down its face (blinded). The dragon fled into the Yellow River. Later, the dragon reincarnated as Qin Hui and avenged this previous grievance. Qin Hui, using a false gold plaque, summoned Yue Fei, and the loyal minister was killed in Fengbo Pavilion. When will the cycle of vengeance ever end? Seeking wealth: No. You will not have good fortune with money for a while, and you need to wait. Official career luck: Excellent. Marriage: For a man, if he draws this hexagram, the woman is not very serious, and the hope may be in vain. For a woman, if she draws this hexagram, it is a good marriage, and she can be loved and happy.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-greenshift-blocks-container gspb_container gspb_container-gsbp-3478162\" id=\"gspb_container-id-gsbp-3478162\">\n<h4 id=\"gspb_heading-id-gsbp-e2bb750\" class=\"gspb_heading gspb_heading-id-gsbp-e2bb750\">Divination Meaning<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-greenshift-blocks-container gspb_container gspb_container-gsbp-881f6dd\" id=\"gspb_container-id-gsbp-881f6dd\">\n<div id=\"gspb_text-id-gsbp-b48b5fe\" class=\"gspb_text gspb_text-id-gsbp-b48b5fe\">This hexagram's name is \"Gou,\" meaning encountering and uniting. It reveals the principle that encounters in relationships, careers, and other areas should adhere to moderation and follow the natural course, rather than resorting to cunning or coercion. Gou signifies chance encounters and unexpected occurrences. It indicates a situation, with its fortune yet to be determined. Encounters can bring unexpected joy or unexpected misfortune, depending on the divination of the moving\u723b and the resulting hexagram. In matters of love, \"Gou\" often suggests the emergence of other romantic interests and is closely related to sensuality.<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"gspb_text-id-gsbp-0b19855\" class=\"gspb_text gspb_text-id-gsbp-0b19855\">This hexagram comprises five yang lines and one yin line. Furthermore, the symbolism of the Gentle Wind, representing the eldest daughter, being beneath the Firmament of Heaven, representing the father, implies signs of the yin line female hidden away, longing to emerge. Therefore, when this hexagram is encountered, it indicates a phenomenon of things gathering and scattering inconstantly. The diviner may be experiencing a state of confusion and unstable thoughts regarding the matter. It can also be extended to signify an inauspicious omen of incurring disaster through rebellion, requiring attention to potential disputes, misunderstandings that lead to errors, or a situation where a woman benefits through her allure.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"featured_media":7320,"menu_order":44,"template":"","class_list":["post-7319","fortune-sticks","type-fortune-sticks","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/fortune-sticks\/7319","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/fortune-sticks"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/fortune-sticks"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/goldenballboy.wp-mak.ing\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7319"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
