<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > introduction</h1>
Zhu Di died, leaving three people for his sons and grandsons: Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, and Yang Pu, followed by the rule of Ren Xuan.
Zhu Yuanzhang died, leaving three people for his grandson: Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, fang Xiaoru, and ironically, the battle of Jingnan followed.
Today, let's first talk about the famous Fang Xiaoru to see if his talent is as famous as that, what is the cause of his killing and sacrificing the protection of the Ten Tribes?
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > famous or capable</h1>
But most of the famous civil servants in history will have a characteristic - prodigy. What are the characteristics of a child prodigy? Three-year-olds can read the Three Character Classic, four-year-olds memorize hundreds of family names, and five-year-olds know thousand-character texts, according to Fang Xiaoru's educational level, it should not be too much.
Filial piety and young police, bright eyes, reading day inch, the township people are "little Hanzi." ”
The prodigy in the History of the Ming Dynasty is more interesting, when he was a child, he was very smart, his eyes were shining, he read more than 3 centimeters thick books a day, and people called him Xiao Hanyu.
When he grew up, he began to learn from Song Lian and became Song Lian's proud protégé.
The general learning experience is like this, which shows that Fang Xiaoru has read a lot from childhood to adulthood, studied well, and has a good literary literacy, but it does not reflect the advantages and disadvantages of his government ability.
Then, he became an official, and he was indeed excellent in terms of literary character, and Zhu Yuanzhang also said: He is a talent of dignified character, and he can be used until he is old.
But what is the next path to becoming an official?
During Zhu Yuanzhang's time, he was a professor in Hanzhong and lectured every day.
During Zhu Yunjiao's period, he first lectured in Hanlin, followed by a bachelor of poetry and a doctorate in literature.
Perhaps the greatest contribution made in the Battle of Jingnan was to solicit the writing of the manuscript, after all, the literary style is good.
Did he really not do anything in the Battle of Jingnan, of course, he did, he offered three plans to Zhu Yunjiao, and the ridiculous thing was that none of them were useful.
In the first plan, three years after Jianwen, Zhu Di attacked the Daming Palace, and Fang Xiaoru gave the first plan: taking advantage of the hot weather, the Yan army might be tired. Immediately order liaodong's army to attack Beiping, the Yan army will definitely fight back, at this time we will chase behind, we can capture him. So let's first write a letter to paralyze him and give us time.
What was the result, the person who sent the document hid it, and Zhu Di did not obey the order.
The second plan, still in the third year of Jianwen, Fang Xiaoru offered a plan to alienate Zhu Di's sons Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaoxu, and then sent Jinyi Wei to Beiping with comfort to give Zhu Gaozi.
As a result, Zhu Gaozi did not open the letter and sent Jinyiwei to his father.
In the fourth plan, in the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Di hit Jiangbei, a step away from the capital. Fang Xiaoru offered another plan, sending people to find Zhu Di to cut the land and ask for peace, and then secretly recruited troops to buy horses and delay time.
As a result, Zhu Di directly refused and immediately crossed the river.
At this point, Zhu Di is going to enter Beijing, and his life is coming to an end. From the historical data, I did not see his specific political achievements, nor did I see the eye-catching government affairs ability.
If he is a teacher, if he is a writer, there is no doubt that he is excellent, because he has many literary works, he presided over the compilation of the Records of Taizu, and he taught many people Confucianism.
But, as a political official, he failed.
Therefore, compared to his fame, his ability is obvious.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="87" > what his cause is at the expense of his life</h1>
There is such a sentence in the "History of Ming", which is the main point
Filial piety and filial piety regard literature and art as their responsibility, and heng regard the Ming Dynasty and the Taiping as their responsibility.
What does it mean, that is, Fang Xiaoru despises literary writing, and has always proclaimed the way of benevolence and righteousness to rule the world and achieve the peace of the times as his duty. Appeared, the topic of this article, Fang Xiaoru's cause that he did not hesitate to protect should be said according to this sentence - benevolence, peace.
How ridiculous it seems now that he despises literature, and in the end what he leaves to the world is only literature; he takes benevolence and peace as his duty, but he handles those government affairs and benefits the people, sorry, I did not see it.
Of course, we can say that he has his own ideals, but lack of ability?
Is this really the case?
Xiao Ruli asked to defend the capital to wait for reinforcements, that is, if things did not work well, they should die in the society.
The story goes back to before Zhu Di attacked Nanjing, when Zhu Yunjiao was afraid that he would not be able to hold it, and asked him what he would do if the city was lost, he actually said: "Even if the city pool cannot be defended, It is also a matter of course that His Majesty the Emperor died for Jiangshan Sheji!"
Zhu Yunjue then listened to him, failed to defend the city, and set himself on fire in the palace (this article does not discuss whether Emperor Jianwen is missing).
However, what about Fang Xiaoru, who said such a thing in awe, the emperor committed suicide, what about you?
He was taken prisoner.
The next thing everyone should be clear, Zhu Di asked him to write the edict of the throne, he did not write, and then quarreled, with a deep literary foundation, he naturally quarreled with Zhu Di, the specific details are:
Zhu Di: "Sir, don't do this, I'm just imitating Zhou Gongfuzheng." ”
Fang Xiaoru: "Where is King Cheng?!" ”
Zhu Di: "Dead." ”
Fang Xiaoru: "What about the son of a king?" ”
Zhu Di: "The country wants an older monarch. ”
Fang Xiaoru: "What about king Cheng's brother?" ”
Zhu Di: "This is my family affair." ”
As a result, Fang Xiaoru defeated Zhu Di for the first time in his life, and then he was accused of the Ten Tribes.
What kind of psychology did Fang Xiaoru say about the Ten Tribes, and what was his purpose?
We combed through it from the beginning, when Zhu Di entered Beijing, he did not choose to commit suicide; when he was arrested and imprisoned, he did not commit suicide in prison; but only after being summoned by Zhu Di after finding a part-time job, he said this sentence of the Ten Tribes and chose to kill himself.
Why didn't he commit suicide with Emperor Jianwen in the first place, and why did he do so?
I think the reason he chose this way was only because he wanted to do one thing: after Zhu Di entered Beijing, he did not choose to commit suicide, he was arrested and imprisoned, and he thought that Zhu Di would definitely summon himself. All he had to do was he wanted to meet Zhu Di and see what kind of man he had defeated, and he wanted to imprint the anti-thief mark deeply on his body and in the hearts of the world. In the end, his purpose was achieved.
Fang Xiaoru's crime was already completely condemning the Nine Clans at this time, and his purpose of seeing Zhu Di and reprimanding him for being an anti-thief had also been achieved, so why did he come to the Ten Clans again?
I think there are three possibilities:
1, Fang Xiaoru's inner thoughts at this time are: Anyway, it is all a death, it is better to die vigorously, they are the Nine Tribes, I curse the Ten Tribes, you can leave a name in history.
2. Fang Xiaoru's inner thoughts at this time are: the degree of exposing Zhu Di's anti-thief is not enough, and the Jie Shi Clan is a shot of strengthening agent, so that when people think of Fang Xiaoru and think of the Jie Shi Clan, they can think of Zhu Di, the anti-thief.
3, Fang Xiaoru's inner thoughts at this time are: purely a joke, Zhu Di said that I nine tribes, I prefer to say that the ten tribes, in fact, I also thought that it was a moment of excitement and casual talk, I did not expect Zhu Di to be serious.
And three of them, perhaps the most interesting third, are his real thoughts.
The first possibility is obviously not very good, because Fang Xiaoru is actually a person of good moral character, and he regards benevolence and righteousness as his own responsibility, and it is impossible to ignore his friends and students for his own reputation.
The second possibility may seem quite reasonable, but it still violates the principle of Fang Xiaoru, it is okay to achieve the goal, it is okay to sacrifice yourself, but it is obviously against the principle of using the lives of others to achieve your own goals.
Therefore, the third was the most reasonable, he was ready to sacrifice his life for righteousness at this time, and the words of the Ten Tribes were only blurted out, and did not think about it.

History is objective, but the human heart is subjective.
What we do is to infer subjective human hearts based on objective history, and it may be that my inferences are whimsical or that my inferences are reasonable. The wise see the wise, and history will only become more and more discerning.
