Serve the country with the utmost loyalty

Yue Fei was from Tangyin in Henan, and the story of his mother tattooing the words 'Serve the country with the utmost loyalty' on his back took place in the old Yue family house in Tangyin. After Yue Fei was wrongfully killed, people built the Jingzhong Temple (the time of initial construction is unknown) on the foundation of the old Yue family house to commemorate him. Over time and through wars, the temple gradually fell into ruin. It was rebuilt in the first year of the Jingtai era of the Ming Dynasty (1450 AD), and since then, it has been expanded and repaired by successive generations, resulting in its current state. The temple not only worships Yue Fei but also his descendants and relatives. Many famous people from different generations have left their inscriptions and steles here, totaling nearly 400 pieces. Emperor Qianlong also left a poem inscribed on a stele when he came to pay his respects.
