Treaty of Shaoxing
The Treaty of Shaoxing of 1141 ended the wars between the Southern Song dynasty and the Jurchen Jin dynasty. It fixed the frontier along the Huai River, made the Song emperor a vassal of the Jin and obliged the Song to pay an annual tribute of silver and silk. It was arranged by the chief minister Qin Hui, and the general Yue Fei, who opposed the peace, was executed.
