The story about mother-in-law's tattoo was not recorded in Song Dynasty's notes and unofficial history's, nor was it recorded in Jin Wan Bian compiled by Yue Fei's sons. The record of Yue Fei's tattoo on his back began with The Original Biography of Song History compiled by Yuan people. There is a saying that because the system of "tattooing as a soldier" is still being implemented, Yue Fei tattooed the word "loyal to serve the country" on his back when he joined the army.

Novels and plays about Yue Fei in Ming Dynasty, such as Ji, Wu Zhongchuan and Legend of Qi, all describe the tattoo on Yue Fei's back. Tattoos have different versions, and the most popular one is "loyalty to the country". Some scholars believe that the word "loyal to the country" at this time is caused by confusing the word "loyal to the monarch and flying to the country" given by Song Gaozong.

2. Mothers should be filial:

Yue Fei is a famous dutiful son in history. After he took his mother Yao's family to the military camp, he was afraid. He handled the military affairs well every night and greeted his mother. When her mother was ill, Yue Fei personally tasted the soup and knelt before sending the couch. She even walked softly, holding her breath for fear of disturbing her rest.

Whenever he leads an army to war, he must first instruct his wife Li Wa to serve his mother well. After Yao's death, Yue Fei and his eldest son walked barefoot for nearly a thousand miles and were buried in Lushan Mountain in Jiangzhou from Ezhou.

3. Brave Three Armies:

Yue Fei can bow 300 Jin, eight stones and the left and right. After becoming a general, he personally taught archery skills to all soldiers in the army. In the battle, Yue Fei often takes the lead and personally acts as the "standard bearer". When fighting the 8 Jin Army, he personally assassinated the enemy general Black Wind King.

In the battle of Nanxun Gate, Wang Shan and Cao Cheng gathered 500,000 soldiers and horses. Yue Fei's men are only 800, and his soldiers are very afraid. Yue Fei was very calm and said, "I will break the enemy for everyone." He attacked the enemy lines with a bow in his left hand and a spear in his right. As a result, Wang Shan was in chaos, and Yue Fei took advantage of the situation and defeated the enemy.

Literary image:

There are many themes that show Yue Fei's merits and wrongs in the Zaju of Song and Yuan Dynasties. In the art of "talking" of Hangzhou citizens contained in "The Drunken Man's Meaning Is Not in the Wine" and "Wu's Dream" at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, there appeared singers who sang the stories of Zhang, Han, Liu and Yue. In the Yuan Dynasty, there were famous zaju "Song General Yue Fei Loyalty and Righteousness" and "When the incident happened" (that is, Bao Jun was caught in the incident).

By the Ming Dynasty, Yue Fei's dramas such as Zhongjing Banner and Gold Medal had flourished on the stage. The romance novels of Ming and Qing Dynasties, the popular romance novels of Song Dynasty and the legend of Yue are all famous for a long time. In particular, Qian Cai's The Legend of Yue in Qing Dynasty, although it has feudal dross such as karma, has a great influence on society.
