During the Three Kingdoms Han Ling Emperor period, there was a great general named He Jin. He Jin was born as a butcher, because his sister was elected to the palace to become a nobleman, his sister gave birth to the crown prince Liu Zhen, and then his sister became the historical Empress He. He Jin, as the empress's older brother and the crown prince's uncle, was also highly valued by the emperor, and finally promoted to a great general with a high position of authority.
Later, the Han Ling Emperor favored Wang Meiren, and Wang Mei gave birth to a crown prince Liu Xie. Empress He became jealous and poisoned Wang Meiren with poisonous wine. The crown prince Liu Xie was raised in the palace of Empress Dong, the mother of Emperor Ling of Han. Empress Dong once persuaded the emperor to make Liu Xie crown prince, and the emperor also favored Liu Xie and prepared to make Liu Xie crown prince. At that time, Emperor Hanling was seriously ill, and a eunuch named Zhongchang Shu (Jian) Shuo next to Emperor Hanling said to the emperor: "If you want to make Liu Xie crown prince, you must first kill the great general He Jin, so as to avoid future troubles." The emperor followed Jian Shuo's advice and Xuan He entered the palace.
1
He Jin made the first step to death: pride and complacency, separation from the masses, and not listening to the good words of others.
Emperor Xuanhe entered the palace. When He Jin entered the palace gate, a man named Pan Yin (Pan Yin can be said to be the first 'two' to play) told He Jin: "Don't enter the palace." Jian Shuo wants to murder gong. He Jin was horrified when he heard this, and immediately returned to his residence, gathered many ministers to discuss, and prepared to kill all the eunuchs. At this time, a person stepped forward from his seat to persuade He Jin: The power of eunuchs began to rise when Emperor Han Chong and Emperor Han Were, and their power spread widely in the imperial court, so how could they all be killed? If the secret is leaked, we will inevitably have the catastrophe of extermination, please think carefully. He Jin looked at it, and the person who spoke was Cao Cao, a lieutenant of the military academy (Cao Cao can be described as the second 'two'). He Jin said, "You little man, how can you know about the great events of the imperial court?" ”

He Jin made the second step of death: treating the symptoms but not the root causes, and not dealing with things decisively. The new emperor took the throne, and could have taken advantage of the victory to pursue and cut the grass and remove the roots, but he missed the opportunity.
He Jinzheng hesitated, Pan Yin came, saying that the emperor had died, and now Jian Shuo was discussing with the Ten Permanent Attendants not to tell everyone the news that the emperor had died, summoning He Guo's uncle into the palace under the pretext of the emperor, and then appointing the crown prince Liu Xie as emperor with the ultimate trouble. Before he could finish speaking, the order of the imperial court arrived, summoning He into the palace. He Jin then prepared to attack and kill these eunuchs, with Yuan Shao leading five thousand imperial forest troops, and He Jin leading Zheng Tai, Xun You, and other ministers into the palace one after another, and helping the crown prince Liu Zhen to ascend to the position of emperor in front of the coffin of Emperor Hanling.
(At this point, He Jin has held two kings in both hands, the nephew of the Son of Heaven is a king, and the great general King He Jin, who is above ten thousand people under one person, is a king)
After all the officials had bowed to the new emperor, Yuan Shao was going to hunt down jian Shuo. After Jian Shuo was killed by another eunuch. Yuan Shao said to He Jin, "The eunuchs have formed a party, and now they can take the opportunity to kill them all." A eunuch named Zhang Rang knew that the matter was urgent, and hurried to tell Empress He, saying: "The only person who designed to murder the great general was Jian Shuo, and it had nothing to do with us. Now the general listened to Yuan Shao's words and prepared to kill us, begging Empress He for mercy. ”
Empress He said, "You don't have to worry, I will protect you." Empress He then summoned He Jin and said, "I came from a humble background with you, and if it were not for Zhang Rang and other eunuchs, how could I enjoy the glory and wealth I have now?" Now that you are not kind, that is, you have been ambushed, why do you still listen to the words of the people and want to kill all the eunuchs? After He Jin listened, he came out and said to the hundred officials, "Jian Shuo designed to kill me, but the clan destroyed his family." The rest do not have to be brutalized. Yuan Shao said: "If you do not cut the grass and remove the roots, you will be the foundation of death." He Jin said, "I have already decided, you don't need to say." ”
(At this time, if you hold the double king in your hand, if you can listen to Yuan Shao's words and take advantage of the situation, the eunuch can be destroyed)

He Jin made the third step of death: there is no opinion on everything, and the key is undecided
Later, because Empress Dowager Dong satirized Empress He during the banquet, He Jin quietly poisoned Empress Dowager Dong to death. Yuan Shao said to He Jin: "Eunuchs such as Zhang Rang and Zhang Jue were rumored to have the great general poison Empress Dong. The great general wanted to accomplish great things, and if he did not take this opportunity to kill the eunuchs and castrate the party, he would be a great disaster in the future, and in the past Dou Wu wanted to kill the eunuchs, because of the plot to leak secrets, he was victimized by them. Now that the great general is in control, if he does his best, the matter is under control. This is a godsend opportunity not to be lost. He Jin said, "And allow for consultation." Later, Zhang Rang and other eunuchs sent bribes to He Jin's younger brother He Miao several times, and He Miao relayed it to Empress He, who said to He Jin: "Emperor Xian has just left, but you want to kill your old subjects, not chongzong temple (symbol of imperial power). He Jin listened to the empress dowager's words, and only promised to withdraw.
(At this time, the two kings are in hand, if you can listen to Yuan Shao's words, the first move is strong, and the eunuch can be destroyed)
4
He Jin made the fourth step of death: thinking without foresight, and luring the jackal into the room
Yuan Shao failed to kill the eunuchs several times due to his lack of determination. He Jin said, "If the empress dowager does not allow it, why should she?" Yuan Shao said: "You can summon the heroes of the four directions, Le (commander, lead) soldiers to come to Beijing, and do their best to castrate the eunuchs." At this time, things are urgent, and the empress dowager is not allowed to disobey. He Jin said, "This plan is great! He sent them to the towns and summoned them to the Capital Division.
But look at the reaction of the ministers of the DPRK and The Central Committee at this time (Chen Lin's words can be described as the fourth 'two'):
Lord Bo Chen Lin said, "No." Vulgar cloud: To hide one's eyes and catch birds is to deceive oneself. Micro-things can not be deceived to gain ambition, but the country is a major event? Now the general fights the emperor's might, the commander of the soldiers wants, the dragon strides the tiger, and the heart is high. The king wants to curse the eunuchs, like a drum furnace burning hair. However, when the thunder is swift and the power is broken, then the heavens and the people are obedient; but they oppose the foreign ministers, the impunity of the Jingque, the gathering of heroes, the one-mindedness, the so-called inverted gang, the granting of the handle, the merit will not be accomplished, and the chaos will be born. Chen Lin meant to say, "No! As the saying goes, "cover your eyes and catch birds" is self-deception. Small things cannot be deceived, let alone major national affairs. Nowadays, the great general relies on the prestige of the royal family, holds the military power in his hands, and is mighty and majestic, and he must consider the situation and adopt appropriate measures in his work. Trying to destroy the eunuchs' power is like burning hair in a furnace. As long as the action is fast, and the opportunity is quickly removed, it will be very smooth to get this credit. If not, instead of sending a letter to the ministers who are guarding the gates, leading troops into the imperial city to remove the eunuchs, and the heroes of the land and the heroes and heroes gathered together, each with its own thoughts, it will cause greater trouble, give power to others, make yourself passive, and you will not get credit for yourself, but will be unfavorable to yourself. ”
In response to Chen Lin's good words, He Jin smiled and said, "This coward's opinion is also!" A person next to him clapped and laughed: "This matter is as easy as a palm, why discuss more!" "See, it is Cao Caoye."
But look at what Cao Cao said: "The curse of eunuchs has existed in ancient and modern times; but the lord of the world should not be a false favor of power, so as to do this." If you want to cure your sins, when you want to get rid of the evil, but it is enough to pay a prison official, why should you summon foreign soldiers? If you want to do your best, it will be revealed. I don't expect it to lose. He Jin was furious: "Meng De also has selfish intentions? "Whoever messes up the world will enter." "Entering is a dark mission, and the secret commanding of the stars goes to the towns in the night.
Cao Cao meant even if he said, "The troubles of eunuchs have existed in ancient and modern times; but the emperor has given them rights, which is why it is so." If you want to punish the crime, you should kill the culprit, just use only one jailer, why recruit troops? If you want to kill them all, things will definitely be exposed. I think it's bound to fail. He Jin said angrily, "Meng De, do you have selfish intentions?" Cao Cao stepped back and said, "Those who mess up the world must be He Jin." He Jin secretly gave the order, and sent emissaries to carry the order to the towns overnight.
Who is Dong Zhuo? The attendant Zheng Tai said: "Dong Zhuo is a jackal, introduced into the capital, will eat people." "Lu Zhi also said: Zhi Su knows that Dong Zhuo is a man, and his face is kind and cruel; once he enters the forbidden court, he will be troubled. It is better not to stop and not to come, so as not to cause chaos. ”
(At this time, these two 'twos': "What Chen Lin and Cao Cao said can be described as high opinions!") ）
5
He Jin made the fifth step of death: The god of death came, but he was still just using himself, but he was brainless
Zhang Rang and the other eunuchs knew that the foreign soldiers were coming, and they discussed together: "This is the plan of what to do; I will not wait for the first move, and all the clans will be exterminated." He found Empress He for help, and Empress He asked Zhang Rang and other eunuchs to go to the General's Mansion to apologize. Zhang Rang said: "If you go to Xiangfu, the flesh and bones will be powdered (that is, they will be killed)." Zhang Rang and others asked Empress He to summon He into the palace, and then asked the general for his guilt (it can be seen that He Jin was not as far-sighted as a eunuch).
The empress dowager summoned He into the palace. Chen Lin said, "This edict of the Empress Dowager must be the plan of the Ten Constant Attendants, and she must not go." If you go, there will be great disasters. He Jin said, "If the empress dowager wants to see me, what misfortune can she do?" Yuan Shao said: "Now that the plan has been leaked and the matter has been exposed, is the general still ready to enter the palace?" Cao Cao said, "You can first summon the Ten Constant Attendants out of the palace, and then you can enter." He Jin said, "This little child's opinion is also." I am in charge of the world, how about the ten constant attendants who dare to treat me? ”。
It was followed by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao escorted He Jin to the gate of Changle Palace. However, he was ordered: "The empress dowager is a special general, and the rest of the people are not allowed to enter." "Block Yuan Shao and Cao Cao outside the palace gate." After He Jin entered, the palace door was closed tightly, and Fu Jia came out in unison, cutting He Jin into two pieces.
(At this time, what Chen Lin and Cao Cao said can be described as a golden jade good word, how to enter the death and not wait for people)
(At this point, He Jin is holding the double king in his hand.) If you listen to Yuan Shao and Chen Lin's words and kill the eunuchs, what can the world do? Look at the four 'twos'. Pan Yin's two key whistleblowers can be one "two", Cao Cao's three high views can be one "two", Yuan Shao's multi-plot can be one "two", and Chen Lin's "hiding his eyes and catching birds" can be one "two". He Jin made the road to death, and he could win by using a 'king' and listening to the good words of one 'two' at will, but in the end he still lost a net light. ）
At the same time, He Jin's five-step death process showed that Yuan Shao was resourceful, Cao Cao was high-minded, and Chen Lin was talented!
Life thinking
What does He Jin's death tell us about being human?
1. The first step of He Jin's death tells us:
(1) Do not be complacent at any time, and be able to listen to the advice of others.
When we ourselves suddenly soar or achieve a little achievement, can we still hear the correct opinions of others, especially the suggestions of those who are lower than us, just as He Jin said to Cao Cao: "Ru Junior Anzhi imperial court affairs!" ”
(2) No matter what kind of achievements we have in the future and what position we are in, we must be polite corporals and have enough respect for the people around us or the people at the bottom. At the same time, this also shows their own cultivation and quality. How to enter the eyes of Cao Cao, call him a junior, so slow, how can you listen to his opinions!
2. The second step of He Jin's death tells us:
(1) Treating the symptoms is not the root cause, and the root causes should be considered in everything. He Jin listened to Empress He's words: "Jian Shuo designed to murder me, but the clan destroyed his family." The rest do not have to be brutalized. But he did not know that the eunuchs had been plotting to kill the imperial court for a long time, and they had already formed a party. As Yuan Shao said: 'If you do not cut the grass and remove the roots, you will be the foundation of death.' ’
(2) If you are not decisive in handling things, you will eventually become a catastrophe. Yuan Shao said, "The lieutenants (eunuchs) formed a party. Today you can take advantage of the situation. Holding the double king, but lacking decisiveness at the critical time, zhang rang interceded with Empress He.
3. The third step of He Jin's death tells us:
We must have an opinion in doing things, and we must be decisive at key times. Zhang Rang, Zhang Jue, and other eunuchs had already rumored that the general had poisoned Empress Dong, but He Jin said at this time: "And allow consultation." Later, because of Empress He's few intercessions, He Jin no longer had an opinion. At this time, there is no decision, and it will slowly become a catastrophe.
4. The fourth step of He Jin's death tells us:
We must have foresight in our thinking, and we must not rush to the doctor. As Chen Lin and Cao Cao said, He Jin's killing of eunuchs was a trivial matter, but he eventually summoned foreign soldiers to attract rich wolves into the house, which eventually led to great chaos in the world. Cao Cao said: 'Those who chaos the world must be He Jin', which was indeed said by Cao Cao.
5. The fifth step of Ho Jin's death tells us
Don't be self-absorbed and be carried away by your position. The empress dowager summoned He into the palace, and everyone knew that the secret had been leaked, and the ten permanent attendants would be killed. But He Jin said, "This child's opinion is also." I am in charge of the world, how about the ten constant attendants who dare to treat me? ”。 Therefore, at any time, you must not be overwhelmed by your own position, because like He Jin, you feel that you are above ten thousand people under one person and fall into a state of mindlessness.
Afterword
He Jin's book Romance of the Three Kingdoms occupies very little text. However, it was such a figure that ignited the flame of the 'great chaos in the world', and He Jin summoned Dong Zhuo into the capital to bring about the chaos of the dynasty, opening up a situation in which the princes of the Three Kingdoms were fighting for the front.
Reading, reading words, reading truth, never read dead books. Reading dead books only makes people more and more stupid until they lose the ability to think. Reading history or reading historical novels has three advantages: reason, wisdom, and faith. Reason, understand the meaning of reason; wisdom, wisdom; faith, can be described as the meaning of doing things. This is my reading experience.
