Chapter Eighty-Five: History is Like a Knife
Although Empress Dowager Dou was no longer favored at that time, she was Emperor Wen's woman after all.
Empress Dowager Dou lost to the concubines of the harem, there is really nothing to say, which man doesn't like a beautiful woman, so Empress Dowager Dou lost unjustly.
After all, there are two categories of famous generals and beauties, and they are not allowed to see white heads.
But Emperor Wen mingled with Deng Tong three days a week, and the Empress Dowager Nimlike would never be able to bear it, because she was also cautious, and Emperor Jing inherited her genes.
No matter how unbearable the Empress Dowager Dou is, she is also a woman, if the jealousy rises, hehe...
So as soon as Emperor Wen died, how could Deng Tong die a good death?
Looking at Xu Cheng's life, he was named a marquis at the age of nineteen, although he was a pavilion marquis, but it was also extraordinary, after all, there were too many heroes in the early Han Dynasty.
What's more important is that during Liu Bang's draft, Xu Chengyan said that a woman was noble, and she was Bo Ji (Emperor Wen's biological mother, that is, the Empress Dowager Bo who had just died), Liu Bang believed his words and accepted it.
In the fifth year of Gaozu, Bo Ji gave birth to Liu Heng, Xu Chengjin said that the court would have disputes in the future, in order to ensure Liu Heng's safety, it was advisable to release the fief as soon as possible, and Liu Bang followed.
In the eleventh year of Gaozu, Liu Bang led troops to quell the rebellion of Chen Feng on behalf of the land, that is, the eight-year-old Liu Heng was appointed as the acting king, all in Jinyang, so Emperor Wen Liu Heng was preserved in the rebellion of Empress Lu.
Later, Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others supported Liu Heng to ascend the throne as Emperor Wen and canonized Concubine Bo as the empress dowager.
Emperor Wen thanked Xu Cheng for saving himself and his mother's grace, and called him his righteous mother (of course, it is just an honorific title, if you take it seriously, it will be hehe), and Pei Yue (Xu Cheng's husband, there is also a story of Pei Yue shooting in history, which is also very interesting, I will not repeat it here, otherwise it will be water again) as a righteous father, and the reward is quite rich, and Pei Yue is named the Marquis of Luoshang, with a rank of 2,000 stones.
Therefore, the relationship between Empress Dowager Dou and Xu Cheng is of course extraordinary, so Emperor Wen asked Xu Cheng to meet Deng Tong back then, wouldn't it be a sheep into the mouth of a tiger, and Deng Tong's ending would have been doomed a long time ago?
It turns out that all this is a routine, a very deep routine, and both parties have benefited, Chao Buzhi thought in his heart.
Emperor Jing didn't have to worry about killing the favored ministers of the first emperor, because Xu Cheng had already made a comment, which was Deng Tong's fate, and Xu Cheng continued to maintain the aura of a god.
After all, in ancient times, these gods and gods were still very marketable, and the most important thing was Xu Cheng's son-in-law, that is, the father of the heroic Guo Xie during the period of Emperor Wu, who was arrested and killed by Emperor Wen because of Ren Xingxia, and it is said that it seemed that Deng Tong did it at that time.
Xu Cheng didn't dare to resent Emperor Wen, but he could still do it if Emperor Wen's favorite minister Deng Tong died a bad death.
So the relationship between this is really too messy, it's really you with me, I have me, and Chao Buzhi has a bit of a headache.
But suddenly Chao Buzhi remembered one more thing, that is, Xu Cheng looked at Zhou Yafu, could it be said that Xu Cheng's son-in-law was killed and Zhou Yafu was also involved?
That's why Zhou Yafu's family was ruined later?
This also makes sense, after all, those so-called gods in ancient times were either chiseled or done by themselves.
Just like the ghost plot Guo Jia of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, Chen Shou recorded in the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms": "Sun Ce turned to fight thousands of miles, all of which were in Jiangdong, and Wen Taizu and Yuan Shao held each other in Guandu, and would cross the river to attack Xu in the north." ”
"Everyone is afraid, and Jia Liu said: 'Strategies for new and Jiangdong, all the punishments are heroic and heroic, and those who can win people's death are also. However, the strategy is light and unprepared, although there are millions of people, it is tantamount to walking alone in the Central Plains. If the assassin rises, the enemy of one man. In my opinion, I will die at the hands of the horseman. 'The strategy of Linjiang was not helped, and it was killed by Xu Gongke. ”
Could it be that Guo Jia is really like a god? Of course, this possibility cannot be ruled out.
But is there really no one behind Xu Gong's three doormen? This possibility cannot be ruled out.
Therefore, history books are like a little girl of history, open to the mind, let people write wantonly, everything is recorded by future generations according to historical materials, but historical materials are also passed on by word of mouth, and it is inevitable that there are some human factors.
Ma Qian, a Taishi company, wrote in the historical record "Xiang Yu Benji": "Under the wall of Xiang Wang's army, the soldiers are small and the soldiers are exhausted, and the Han army and the princes are surrounded by several soldiers. At night, when he heard that the Han army was surrounded by Chu Song, Xiang Wang Nai was shocked and said: "The Han army has already won Chuhu? There are so many people in He Chu! ’
”
King Xiang got up at night and drank in the tent. There is a beauty name, and I am often fortunate to follow; The horse is famous, and it is often ridden. So Xiang Wang is sad and generous, and he said in a poem: 'Pull out the mountain and cover the world'...... song counts, and the beauty is harmonious. King Xiang cried a few lines, crying left and right, and couldn't look up. ”
Where is it? Can Xiang Yu still be in the mood to write poetry? And the writing is brilliant and affectionate.
Even if Xiang Yu is in the mood to write poems, will Liu Bang record them? With Liu Bang's cautious eyes, will Xiang Yu be given this kind of opportunity? Establish his own opponent as a towering tragic hero?
Looking at the time when Sima Qian wrote "Historical Records", he had already been punished by the palace for interceding for Li Ling and became a eunuch, so Sima Qian's Spring and Autumn penmanship, with the skill of literary words, is simply a god, and writing Xiang Yu is not writing about himself.
After all, "Song of the Fall" can be said to be generous and intense, with a thousand years of grievances.
What could be more indignant than being tortured by the palace?
In "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty" starring Chen Baoguo, Emperor Wu read Sima Qian's compilation of "Taishi Gongshu" and said: "After reading your book, I am all sick, to say the least, it is a year's yang life, you are using a knife and pen to take revenge." ”
“····”
"Do you want me to kill you, so that generations will praise your loyalty and scorn me for being a tyrant?"
“····”
"Actually, you are not only to me, but also to Emperor Gao and Emperor Jing, how can you not have a whisper!"
"Although your book cannot be used as the official history of the country, it can be used as the words of your family as a historian."
(This can also confirm the above statement, of course, these are only the author's own opinions, and there may be slight inappropriateness.) )
Thinking of these things that Chao Buzhi wanted to ask Zhou Yafu, he stopped talking, and he had to explore this matter slowly in the future, after all, it was in Weiyang Palace at this time, and it was always said that these things were not good.
Of course, Chao Buzhi is not qualified to say this, after all, he himself came here in such a daze.
