Chapter 195 Wen Tianxiang
Remember for a second [Think โรท Ke โ Xiao โณ said ยง Net . Org], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
Just a second before He Shen was about to kick open the stool, Huang Xiaowei stopped him, and at the same time silently stuffed a piece of gold ingot into He Shen's hand.
This big corrupt official looked at the gold ingots in his hand, the expression on his face was extremely complicated, the first half of his life he fought for his ideals, the second half of his life was for "it" to struggle, and Shen also did a lot of bad things for "it", excluding dissidents, suppressing opponents, he has done all of this, it can be said that He Shen died in the hands of the "tower", but not necessarily, the political struggle is far more complicated and dark than ordinary people think.
Before he died, He Shen looked at the gold ingot, smiled lightly, and then discarded it like garbage.
He Shen finally understood a truth, what is the use of more things outside the body, this truth is simple to say, but how many can really understand?
........
He Shen committed suicide and died in this gloomy cell, the history books record that he died in his own home, it should be changed by Jiaqing, as for why he changed it, it may be from the emperor's point of view, dying in his own home, and the meaning of dying in prison is different, but in any case, the most famous corrupt official in history is dead after all.
Is He Shen notorious? It shouldn't be counted, he is a corrupt official, a powerful minister, but he doesn't seem to be hooked with a traitorous minister, he is corrupt and bribery, and he loots the people's fat and ointment, but he is a loyal minister, loyal to Qianlong, loyal to ***, and his contribution is indelible.
Like so many heroes and ministers, he and them have become a wheel that pushes history forward.
He Shen's controversy is relatively big, mainly around him is the word corrupt official, and the next one, undisputed, is a real loyal minister.
Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving Dan to take care of his sweat.
........
As soon as the adults took their last breath, Li Laosi appeared.
The old guy glanced at the hanged He Shen, and then beckoned to Huang Xiaowei, who was still a little sentimental: "Xiaowei, don't look at it, you are not familiar with him, hurry up and pack up and go to the Southern Song Dynasty." โ
Huang Xiaowei picked up the gold ingot, and bowed to He Shen's corpse again, "Lord He, you can go, if you have time, I will burn some paper money for you, to be honest, I admire you, one person can embezzle so much money, it's amazing." โ
Li Laosi was speechless and said: "You kid admires who is not good, admire him!" I think you are still honest and mortal, if you go to heaven, the fourth master will have competitors in the future. โ
Huang Xiaowei glanced at Li Laosi, it seems that the immortals in the heavenly court are not very clean, too, they all say that the immortals cut off the red dust and have few desires, but looking at Li Laosi's appearance, just two words, fart, you said that it was too platinum, and he became an old ruffian.
Huang Xiaowei said: "I said Li Laosi, why did Lao Tzu come here and become an unlucky eunuch?" Okay, I'll admit it, I just want to ask you, what about the original eunuch? โ
Li Laosi shrugged his shoulders and said: "Where else can I go, I was killed by the way of heaven, I just found out, anyway, you not only have to correct history now, but also occasionally make cameo appearances in some roles, but don't worry, they are all small characters who are not in the stream, and you can't be written in the history books." โ
Huang Xiaowei said: "What are you doing in the Southern Song Dynasty this time?" Who's going to have an accident? โ
Li Laosi breathed a sigh of relief, "Just like this time, prevent a person from being rescued and make sure he can die." โ
"Who?"
Li Laosi turned his head, and the next second, he saw his figure gradually become transparent, and he gently spit out three words in his mouth.
"Wen Tianxiang."
.........
Wen Tianxiang, the word is good, and the official residence is the right prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty.
In that dark era, the rotten Southern Song Dynasty regime was crumbling, the iron hooves of the Mongols were raging on the land of China, and China was about to face the day of destruction.
It was an extremely dark era, the civil and military generals of the Southern Song Dynasty had long been unable to resist the Mongols, and the surrender faction accounted for the majority, even at this time, the ministers of the court did not forget to loot the people's fat and people's ointment, greedy for pleasure.
In the filthy court, there is only one figure, standing undestructible, upholding the ideals and ambitions in his heart, and resisting unyieldingly.
Wen Tianxiang knew that the decaying Great Song Dynasty was hopeless, and surrender was a matter of course in the eyes of most people, but anyone could surrender, but he couldn't, because he was the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty.
At the time of crisis, Wen Tianxiang organized a rebel army, fought everywhere, and rescued one after another desperate Song people from the sabers of the Mongols.
But in the end, he was defeated, when the army was defeated, he tried to commit suicide by taking medicine, but he survived because of the failure of the medicine, and then he lived the last three years of his life as a prisoner, during these three years, countless Yuan Dynasty officials came to persuade him to surrender, whether it was a high-ranking official, or coercion, torture, Wen Tianxiang gritted his teeth and survived.
There is no joy in life, and there is no fear in death.
As he wrote in "Crossing the Zero Ding Yang".
Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving Dan to take care of his sweat.
At that time, even if the emperor of Dayuan personally came to persuade him to surrender, he was unmoved.
In Wen Tianxiang's heart, if he can't save the world, he should be dead.
For Wen Tianxiang, there is no controversy in the history books, he is a loyal minister, a man who stands up to the sky, and a man who should be remembered by everyone.
But it's such a singing and crying hero, Huang Xiaowei actually wants to kill him, no, it's not killing, but is there any difference between this and killing? Rushing away the righteous man who came to rescue Wen Tianxiang, Huang Xiaowei can't do this kind of thing, how different is he from a traitor if he really does this?
But at this time, Huang Xiaowei was suddenly stunned, because he saw He Shen's body, and suddenly, Huang Xiaowei found that he seemed to understand something.
He Shen wanted to be rescued, he stopped him, Wen Tianxiang wanted to be rescued, he didn't want to stop it, why didn't he want to stop it? Is there any difference between He Shen and Wen Tianxiang?
Yes, and this difference is still very big, He Shen has always been labeled as a bad guy in the eyes of the world, while Wen Tianxiang is an out-and-out good person.
When the bad guy dies, we will applaud, and when the good guy dies, we will probably be like those officials in Datang, scolding God for having no eyes.
But in history, is there a good or bad?
History is a huge chariot, he has countless wheels, He Shen is one of them, Wen Tianxiang is also, the value of their existence is to continue to push the chariot of history forward.
From the primitive society of Ru Mao drinking blood, to the feudal and brutal slave society, in the present, this super chariot is moving forward all the time, thousands of years have passed, human beings let go of the spear stained with blood in their hands, picked up the pen with a little ink, from barbarism to civilization, from unclothed to suits and leather shoes.
Advanced civilization, a good life, all of this is given by that super chariot, and it is its continuous progress that allows us to have a good life today.
But no matter what vehicle moves forward, it means that there must be a road, and the road taken by the super chariot of history is not an exaggeration to call it a bloody road.
This road is paved with countless lives, and every time a dynasty falls, the wheel of history takes a big step forward, and in the meantime, many wheels are scrapped and discarded, leaving on that bloody road, because they have fulfilled their mission.
After completing the mission, it means that there will be no more value and meaning of existence, and at the same time that they are discarded, there will be a lot of wheels to add in, because there is a new mission that still needs people to complete, so they still have the value and meaning of existence.
Whether it's a good person or a bad person, our lives today are inseparable from what they have done, whether it is good or bad.
Loyal ministers have the contributions of loyal ministers, and traitorous ministers also have the merits of traitorous ministers.
Huang Xiaowei figured out everything, there is really no good or bad in history, if there is no Dong Zhuo and Zhao Gao, the lives of the common people may be better, but the pace of history will stop, maybe now, we will still be in a feudal society, worship the emperor who is high.
.......
Huang Xiaowei let out a long sigh, although he understood, but ....... Forget it, the right should be to send Lord Wen all the way, anyway, if those assassins really robbed him, it can only be said that the defense ability of the Yuan army is too poor, and no one else can be blamed, although Lord Wen will have the possibility of changing history if he is rescued, but it's okay, according to the current situation, as long as the history books say that he was killed, but isn't it.
Well, just do it, you can take Master Wen home, spend the rest of your life in peace, and send someone to negotiate with the Mongols when you are done, or fight, if the negotiation doesn't work, you can't fight, he can only sneak to the Yuan Dynasty to change the record of Wen Tianxiang, although it's a bit unrealistic to say this, but there will always be a way, and the living can still suffocate urine?
Huang Xiaowei has already made up his mind, after arriving in the Southern Song Dynasty, he didn't do anything, just stood aside and watched the excitement, if he was in a good mood, he could also help Lord Wen, by the way, today is the one hundred and eighty-eighth day that I and Dongfang Qing have met, well, I am in a good mood.
At this time, Xiao Wan'er, who was held in Dongfang Qing's arms, suddenly stretched out her little hand, pulled Huang Xiaowei's clothes, and said coquettishly: "Is Wen Tianxiang the big hero?" โ
Huang Xiaowei touched the little girl's head: "Wan'er knows so much, Wen Tianxiang is a big hero." โ
The little girl pursed her lips and said, "That Wan'er doesn't want to see Grandpa Wen die." โ
Huang Xiaowei held the little girl's hand and said seriously: "Don't worry, he won't die." โ
