When I chased "Shangyang Fu", I saw such a point of view: the play is alternate history, so the characters in the play have no historical archetype. Is this really the case? Non also!
Why? Not to mention the relationship between the two families of Wang Xie, the background of the Wang family is the same as that of the Wang clan of the Six Dynasties, and the Xie family is secretly in line with the Xie clan of Chen County. The later ending of these two families in "Shangyang Fu" coincided with the sentence "In the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people." Therefore, the existence of Wang Xie and the two families shows that the play at least has some historical background.
In addition, another important clue to prove that the play is not completely overhead is that the male protagonist Xiao Qi actually has a historical prototype. When I first watched this drama, many friends did not know how to pronounce the "Qi" word of "Xiao Qi"?
In fact, this word is pronounced "qí", which is homophonous with the word "ride". The common meaning of this word refers to pale blue, and it is generally used in the name of a person, referring to the person's introverted personality and has experienced many vicissitudes. This word is used on the male protagonist, but it is also very appropriate.
The role of Xiao Qi is not only domineering in name, but also in historical archetypes, and there are a bunch of ancients who worship him. The prototype of this person is Liu Yu, the Emperor wu of the Song Dynasty from the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Southern and Northern Dynasties, nicknamed Ji Nu.
Why is it him, the author is not talking nonsense? There are 3 reasons for this:
First of all, in the original work of "Shangyang Fu", Xiao Qi was born into poverty and lost his father and mother at an early age, which is the same as Liu Yu's life. It is impossible for Xiao Qi to be crowned the Prince of Yuzhang after his triumph, and Liu Yu was also made the Duke of Liu Yu County, which cannot be just a coincidence.
Secondly, in the play, Xiao Qi was appreciated by Wang Cheng xiang and gave him his daughter Xu Of Shangyang County; and Liu Yu in history was also appreciated by Wang Mi, who even said in front of Liu Yu: "You should become a hero of a generation."
In the end, liu Yu in history also relied on his own all the way to conquest, and finally suppressed Wang Xie nobles and ascended to the throne. This is the same as the two families of Xiao Qi and Wang Xie in the play.
From the above 3 points, we can all conclude that Xiao Qi's prototype is actually Liu Yu. The historical Liu Yu was indeed a Ming Emperor, who broke the situation of the warrior clan's arrogance and arrogance, ended the era of door valves, and laid the foundation for the later "rule of Yuan Jia", which was called "the king of chaos and chaos" by later generations.
Such a king naturally has a lot of "iron powder" in the future generations. You can search a little about how many of his poetry works there are: from the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing, but everyone with the word "slave" basically refers to him.
Historians can not say that his evaluation is not low, Sima Guang and Su Rui and others have greatly praised him. Su Rui even praised him: "Establishing the four great merits, the world cannot resist." Of course, among Liu Yu's many fans, the most famous is Xin Zhiyi. His poem "Yong Yu Le Jingkou Beiguting Huaigu" was written for Liu Yu:
Throughout the ages, the hero has no place for Sun Zhong. Dance hall song stage, the wind is always blown, the rain blows away. Slanting grass trees, ordinary alleys and strange, humane slaves once lived. Think of that year, Jinge iron horse, swallowed like a tiger.
As a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty, Ji Nu has always been one of the most admired people in Xin Zhiyi. This poem is selected into the middle school textbook every year, but many people may not know that the slave is the one who let the "old Wang Xie Tang Qianyan" really fly into the homes of ordinary people.
A big reason why Xin Abandoned Disease admired him so much was because Liu Yuben was a brave and good general. Externally, he destroyed the southern Yan and Later Qin states, and then regained Guanzhong, Restored Luoyang and Chang'an, and ushered in the most extensive period of the six dynasties of Jiangzuo. Such a figure, in the eyes of Xin Zhiyi, is a figure who "swallows up like a tiger".
Of course, although the main line of life of Xiao Qi in "Shangyang Fu" is similar to Liu Yu, the emotional line is completely different. The history books record that Liu Yu had three wives, none of whom were from the county lord, nor was anyone surnamed Wang. And from the perspective of Liu Yu's attitude towards several wives, he really does not look like an obsessive species. In addition to Xiao Qi, what archetypal characters did you find in the play? Discussion is welcome.
