The Three Kingdoms was an era of clever heads, such as Kong Rong, Cai Yong (pronounced yōng), Xun Yu (pronounced yù), Jia Xu, Tian Feng, Feng (pronounced jǔ), Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, and so on, and they all picked out one at random, all like thunder. The so-called people are afraid of fame, pigs are afraid of strong, it is regrettable that these famous heads, except for a few, most of them have many fates, died young, and some even died of fate, today, we will talk about the phoenix of the phoenix, the talent of the talent - You (pronounced mí) Heng.
According to the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, You Heng (祢衡), also spelled Zhengping, was a native of Pingyuan County (present-day Leling City, Shandong). Since childhood, he has been extremely intelligent, ten lines at a glance, never forget, his IQ is absolutely explosive, and he can recite poems against him as a teenager, export into chapters, and kill many adults.
Arrogance is almost a common disease of all talents, and You Heng is no exception, seeing who does not look at anything pleasing to the eye, still not sparing people, from time to time spitting out wild words, or pointing out the country, or Zang No characters, especially willing to spray the current situation, in today's words, is a typical angry Youth.
During the reign of Emperor Xingping of the Han Dynasty, due to frequent wars in the north, You Heng and his family took refuge in Jingzhou. In the early days of Jian'an, Emperor Xian of Han was welcomed by Cao Cao to Xuchang, and You Heng heard the wind and rushed from Jingzhou to Xu Du, hoping to find an opportunity to show a small face in the imperial court.
Just arrived in Xuchang, You Heng carefully made a half-foot-long bamboo thorn at any cost, which is what we call a business card today, carried it in his chest and walked among the big guys all day long to seek to reach it. However, although You Heng was famous in his hometown for a while, when he arrived in Xudu, no one bought it, wandered for more than three months, broke through iron shoes, tanned his face, and polished his famous thorns, but he found nothing and no one appreciated it.
At that time, Xuchang had just become the capital, and all kinds of "Beijing Drift" from all over the country, such as celebrities and celebrities from all over the country, gathered here. Once, a drifting friend pointed out to You Heng: "Why don't you give Chen Changwen (Chen Qun) and Sima Boda (Sima Lang) a try?" "At that time, Chen and Sima were the big men of the xiangren world, and anyone who was looked at by the two or casually commented on them would soon soar. You Heng, who was arrogant and accustomed, was suddenly glimpsed by people's thoughts, and felt that he could not wipe his face, so he deliberately grabbed his neck and replied: "Can I get from Tugu Erye?" "How can my great lord You bow down in front of those little children who slaughter pigs and sell meat!"
Another time, a drifter asked You Heng with a somewhat provocative meaning: "Xun Wenruo (Xun Yu), Zhao Zhichang (Zhao Rong) Yun He?" "What do you think of Xun Yu and Zhao Rong?" In order to show his extraordinary, You Heng pinched his nose and said rather dismissively, "Xun Wenruo?" Can you borrow his little white face to hang himself at the funeral, and the big belly zhao zhi is long? You can let him go to the kitchen to manage the food. "It means that Xun Yu is just a small white face, compared with you, that is, the white radish on the edge of the Yellow River--yong is only one." And Zhao Rong was just a warrior with a big belly, nothing else.
A political amateur and amateur angry youth who wandered in the Capital Division, according to common sense, should have clipped his tail and behaved as a man, but You Heng was high-profile and angry, repeatedly spraying people, and his mouth was unguarded and had no scruples, just like this, he also wanted to develop and achieve something in the capital, which was tantamount to asking for fish and seeking skin with tigers.
Of course, You Heng is not without friends, according to the historical records, he only has two friends in Xudu, or only two people he can see, which are the famous scholars Kong Rong and Yang Xiu. Even these two friends, in Your Eyes, they are also small characters. You Heng often said to people: "The eldest son Kong Wenju, the younger child Yang Dezu, the yuzi Lulu, Mo enough to count also." "It means that under the whole world, only my eldest son Kong Rong and my younger son Yang Xiushang have some talent." The rest are cat-headed and dog-eared, not enough to hang teeth.
And you Heng, who was so arrogant, was only twenty years old at this time, and Kong Rong was already forty years old, which was equivalent to You Heng's father, but You Heng actually called Kong Rong the eldest son, and his arrogance could be seen. Although he was called the eldest son by You Heng, Kong Rong was a famous scholar after all, and he also knew that You Heng was indeed a great talent, of course, he knew you Heng's personality and disposition, so Kong Rong did not calculate with You Heng, but still interacted with him as always, and wrote to him many times to recommend You Heng to Emperor Xian of Han.
In addition to sparing no effort to recommend to Emperor Xian of Han, Kong Rong also praised You Heng in front of Cao Cao many times, saying that You Heng was a wizard who had only been born in hundreds of years. Kong Rong was also a famous scholar in the world at that time, seeing kong Rong so hard to promote You Heng, Cao Cao, who loved his life, was very curious and yearning, and wanted to see and see You Heng's style. However, You Heng always looked down on Cao Cao, who came from a family of eunuchs, so although Cao Cao summoned him many times, You Heng claimed to be suffering from a mad disease and refused to go, even if he did not go, he also repeatedly sprayed and slandered Cao Cao incessantly behind people.
What kind of person is Cao Cao, who would rather I bear the burden of the people of the world, and how can he tolerate such an arrogant person? Cao Cao gritted his teeth in hatred and tried to take you down many times, slashing with a knife, but because you were quite famous, he felt that killing him would damage the name of his love, so Cao Cao wanted to find an opportunity to humiliate You Heng and kill his pride.
Opportunities come. Cao Cao heard that You Heng was good at drumming, so he appointed You Heng as the drum history (i.e., the chief drummer of the national band). Once, Cao Cao feasted on the guests, let the band play music to help, and at the same time stipulated that when the musicians played, they all needed to take off their original costumes and change into special red horse clip green shorts, that is, let them dress up like a monkey, and others followed the rules, but when it was You Heng's turn to play, he ignored it and still appeared in court clothes. At that time, You Heng was playing his own masterpiece, the drum song of "Yuyang". Sure enough, it was the chief musician, as soon as he made an appearance, You Heng was like a pose, immediately won the applause of the whole hall, a little tilt, I saw him shake his head and tail, flash around, open the bow left and right, fly up and down, not only the appearance is radiant, brilliant, and the drum music hit is also like a jingo iron horse, the momentum is like a rainbow, the arrogance is compelling, and the people present all clap their hands and applaud.
You Heng danced while drumming, and then turned to Cao Cao during the conversation, presumably at the behest of Cao Cao, Cao Cao's subordinates stepped forward and scolded You Heng in a loud voice: "Bold drum history, why don't you change your clothes and rashly appear?" You Heng was frightened, so he replied, "Good! Therefore, You Heng stopped, untied the waist drum on the spot, dropped the drumstick, calmly took off the imperial robe, and then took off his underwear and underwear, completely naked, like a door god standing naked in the hall, and then, slowly took the red clips and green pants handed by the next person, put them on one by one, re-picked up the drums and hammers, and continued to perform, after a bag of cigarettes, a horseback squat style, immediately stood. After the performance, Your face does not change color, your heart does not beat, you are calm, and you slowly leave the scene. At the end of the banquet, Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said, "I wanted to humiliate You Heng in this way, but I didn't expect to be humiliated by You Heng instead." ”
Kong Rong witnessed the whole process, felt that You Heng was a bit excessive, and after blaming You Heng, he relayed Cao Cao's sincerity to him in passing. At this time, You Heng also had some remorse and promised Kong Rong to go to Cao Mansion the next day to apologize.
Kong Rong saw that You Heng was quite remorseful, so he met cao Cao again, and excused You Heng: "You Heng this person suffers from a mad disease, he has remorse for his inappropriate words and deeds at yesterday's banquet, and wants to personally apologize to you." Cao Cao heard the great joy and instructed the gatekeepers: "If You Heng comes to see you, report it immediately!" As a result, after waiting for half a day, I didn't see any trace of You Heng, waiting and going, and it was close to noon, and the doorman saw that You Heng was wearing a hundred-year-old robe, a white towel wrapped around his head, and holding a three-foot-long wooden staff in his hand, walking slowly like a called Huazi, and the doorman was preparing to go up to pay attention, and before he could open his mouth, he saw that You Hengli also ignored it, and sat directly at the door of the Xiang mansion, hitting the ground with a wooden staff, and with the rhythm, he improvised the "Jing yun drumming" - scolding Cao Cao.
You Heng, who did not wait to apologize, actually waited for an angry Qing who was looking for trouble, and Cao Cao became angry and ashamed, biting his back teeth and fiercely saying to Kong Rong: "You Heng this boy, I kill him like pinching a rat and finches." But this person has always been a bit of a false name, if I execute him, outsiders will think that I can't tolerate him, stop it, I will fulfill him once, and give him to Jingzhou Mu Liu Watch! After saying that, he narrowed his eyes and asked Kong Rong, "What do you think?" Kong Rong was speechless. The next day, Cao Cao really arranged for an ox cart to send You Heng out of the city gate.
On the day of You Heng's departure, under kong Rong's Zhang Luo, a group of drifters prepared some wine and dishes to send you off. Everyone came to the south gate of Xuchang City and waited for You Heng's arrival, and one of them wanted to take the opportunity to tease You Heng, so he proposed: "You Heng has always been arrogant and rude to us, and today we arrived first, and we still don't see him. Everyone nodded yes.
After a while, You Hengzhi, everyone deliberately talked to each other, and neither ignored You Heng nor got up. After a while, I saw You Heng slip out of the car and sit on the ground and cry. The drifters were amazed, so they all stood up and asked why. You Heng put away his tears and said with concern: "The one who sits is the grave, the one who lies down is the corpse, I sit between the corpse graves, can I not be sad!" A group of drifting friends were originally ready to take advantage of this to fold You Heng's pride, but they did not expect that after half a day, they let You Heng lose a handful.
Liu Biao and a cadre of celebrities in Jingzhou had long admired You Heng's talent, and when they heard of You Heng's various anti-Cao performances in the capital, they even looked up to him. Therefore, from Liu Biao to his subordinates, they all worship You Heng as a god and have great respect. Liu Biao, who was also a scholar at that time, whenever he wrote an article and made a discussion, he had to listen to Your Heng's high opinion, and if there was no You Heng's opinion or approval, he simply did not send it. Once, Liu Biao once drafted a folding chapter with several big secretaries, and everyone felt good about themselves.
After You Heng returned from going out, everyone gave you the recital to You Heng, thinking that they would definitely get his appreciation, but to everyone's surprise, You Heng only took one look at it, and then tore up Liu Biao's proud masterpiece three times and twice, and threw it on the ground. This not only surprised Liu Biao, but also made him feel self-conscious. In the midst of everyone's confusion, You Heng asked for a pen, and with a wave of it, Liu Biao looked at them, not only was the atmosphere magnificent, the writing was beautiful, and the words were also written in a dragon and phoenix, which was beautiful, which could be described as a good book, and everyone was impressed. Liu Biao was also very happy, and he was even more important to You Heng.
However, the good times did not last long, and soon after that, You Heng relapsed from the old disease, arrested individuals from time to time for no reason, and insulted Liu Biao without restraint, sometimes even bumped into Liu Biao in front of everyone, and several times even let Liu Biao get off the stage, one after another, Liu Biao was deeply humiliated, and he had the intention to kill, but in view of You Heng's name, Liu Biao was inconvenient to do it. So he followed Cao Cao's example and sent You Heng away to Huang Zu of Jiangxia. Liu Biao thought that Jiang Xia was too defensive of Huang Zu to be a rough man, a warrior, and a violent temperament, so he wanted to borrow a knife from Huang Zu's hand to kill people.
At the beginning, Huang Zu treated You Heng as a guest of honor, a small banquet for three days, and a big feast on five days, and at this time, You Heng was also quite restrained, plucking his tail, and taking care of the internal affairs such as the clerical secretary for Huang Zu in an orderly and orderly manner, and was also respectful to Huang Zu. Huang Zu took You Heng's hand many times and said sincerely: "What Sir said and did is exactly what I wanted, and what I thought and wanted to say is almost the same as what I wanted to say." ”
Huang Zu's eldest son, Huang She, then Zhang Ling Taishou, was also a literary youth, and he saw You Heng as his idol. Once, when Huang She's guests were entertaining, someone happened to send a five-colored parrot, and Huang Shoot held up a wine glass to You Heng and said, "Mr. Hope has written a gift for this parrot to toast xing." "You Heng waved a large pen, in one go, and his intentions were lofty and his words were beautiful. After the guests on the spot read the article, they were full of praise, and The yellow shot was even more proud.
The so-called flowers are not 100 days red, and people are not 100 days good. Once half a year later, Huang Zu was on a warship, feasting on guests, looking at the gushing river, looking at the green mountains in the distance, plus the white clouds, the breeze was blowing, everyone was relaxed and happy, full of pride, and many guests lyrically complained "Aaaah" and sang praises for Huang Zu. But You Heng did not know the good and the bad, and even said that everyone was a frog at the bottom of the well, rare and strange, and there was no disease and groaning. You Heng's saying not only made a big fuss about the scenery, but also made Huang Zu very embarrassed, and after putting up with it again, You Heng still didn't know how to be interesting and continued to increase his complaints. Huang Zu couldn't bear it anymore and had to open his mouth to reprimand You Heng a few words. However, at this time, You Heng was spitting on Xingshang, Huang Zu was not responsible, Huang Zu was responsible, a stimulus, it actually made You Heng more and more uncontrollable, at the same time of anger, he did not want to think, so he pointed at Huang Zu and opened his mouth: "Dead Gong, Yun and so on!" "You dead old man, what do you know?" How dare they accuse me! Wufu Huangzu had never suffered such a confrontation, so he showed his appearance, and he was furious and reached out to smoke. You Heng was stimulated by this, and even more scolded, Huang Zu was ashamed and angry, so he ordered You Heng to be pulled down and beheaded.
When the order was given, not only did no one intercede for You Heng, but Huang Zu's subordinates cheered in their hearts. It turned out that You Heng's stinky mouth had already offended Huang Zu's subordinates many times, especially Huang Zu's chief master, who was even more jealous of You Heng, and when he heard the order, he didn't wait, so he immediately pulled You Heng down and clicked.
At this time, he was still shooting yellow in the ship's barn, and after hearing the movement, he ran up barefoot, bent on saving people under the knife, but when he rushed to the scene breathlessly, You Heng was already in a different place. At this time, Huang Zu was also quite remorseful, and in order to make up for his own transgressions, he ordered his subordinates to bury You Heng thickly. You Heng was only twenty-six years old at the time of his death.
Why did You Heng die? There have always been many opinions, such as personality, conspiracy, and inadmissibility. The author believes that all of the above claims are not substantiated, and the main cause of Your Death is caused by disease, or more precisely, it is caused by manic psychosis.
It can be seen from the data that manic psychosis is mainly characterized by symptoms such as abnormally high emotions, short temper, easy anger, and inability to control one's behavior. When proud, they are elated, triumphant, and dancing; when they are frustrated, they are manic for no reason, and they are aggressive and angry, full of hostility, and their mouths are unguarded. Judging from the above nonsensical performances of You Heng, it should not be false to say that You Heng suffers from this disease.
In fact, to say that You Heng suffers from mental illness, this is not the author's family's words, at that time Kong Rong, also repeatedly said that You Heng suffered from "crazy diseases", and even You Heng himself admitted that he suffered from "crazy diseases". The author believes that this is not a humble statement of You Heng, nor is it Kong Rong's excuse, but it is the case. As for whether this "mad disease" is a manic psychosis or a paranoid psychosis, it can only be a matter of opinion.
