Heroes in the chaotic world, such as Liu Xiu. The chaotic world also produces fools, such as Zhang Man and Zhang Feng. Liu Xiu was the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, who were Zhang Man and Zhang Feng? The object of Liu Xiu's crusade in the early Eastern Han Dynasty.
The Later Han Shu Shu Shu Therefore, when he sacrificed heaven and earth, he said in front of everyone that he was born as an emperor. In the chaotic world, anyone with a little military strength always wants to do something. In fact, doing things is secondary, mainly wanting to be an emperor. In particular, Wang Mang became emperor in a tuchen way, and many people followed suit, and Zhang Man was one of them.
Liu Xiu, who had just been proclaimed emperor in Luoyang, could make Zhang Man emperor in Hebei? A holy decree was sent to the general to obey the crusade against Zhang Man. Zhang Man, who was not in the flow, was not the opponent of The Sacrifice At all, and within a few rounds, the Sacrifice Obey captured Zhang Man alive. After being caught, Zhang Man sighed, "Yuwen misled me! He realized that the so-called slur was just a hoax and could not believe it.
Also believing in Chen, Zhang Feng is much more stubborn than Zhang Man. Zhang Feng was the Taishou of Zhuo County in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, and he believed the Taoist monks hopelessly, which gave those who were good at speculating and drilling camps to see the opportunity to get rich. A Taoist priest voted for Zhang Feng's favor, saying that he had a noble appearance, and also wrapped a stone with a multicolored bag and tied it to his elbow, saying that there was a jade seal in the stone, and as long as Zhang Feng always carried the bag, he could become emperor.
Of course, Zhang Feng was very happy, as if he had won the jackpot, and perhaps he gave the Daoist a lot of money with a wave of his hand. The Taoist priest slipped away with the money. Where it went is not recorded, as a descendant of our current analysis, whether this demagogic person is a true Taoist or a false Taoist is unknown, maybe a liar.
But Zhang Feng believed the Taoist priest's words hopelessly. He obediently hung the stone-wrapped bag on his elbow every day, not only not to get in the way, but also to protect it like a baby, afraid that it would bump and touch, afraid that it would be destroyed. With the jade seal in his hand, no, on his elbow arm, Zhang Feng began the first step of his emperor dream, first calling himself the Great General of heaven, and then slowly calling himself emperor again.
Before he could claim the title of emperor, Liu Xiu's crusading army came. Zhu Hu, Geng Yi, Ji Zun, and Liu Xi, four experienced generals who had fought against Zhang Feng. Zhang Feng, where their opponent, was quickly caught. But this man was still obsessed with his death, and he was still shouting when he was tied to the chopping table, saying that he had a jade seal in the bag on his arm, and that he was born to be the material for the emperor.
This is really unrepentant. In order to make Zhang Feng understand his death, the priest untied the bag on his elbow and took out the stone inside to break it. If there is any jade seal, it is just an ordinary stone! Zhang Feng understood that he had been deceived, and he could finally be a ghost who understood.
The difference between a hero and a fool is probably that one will position himself and one who does not know how many bowls of dry rice he will eat. People who will position themselves always keep a clear head, and people who don't know how many bowls of dry rice they eat are easily deceived.
