What kind of people are the good people of Liangshan? This topic is actually no longer new, because as long as friends who have read the original work will know that the "good men" in the book are not as perfect as the reader expected, they are not jealous and hateful heroes, such as Li Kui killed the red eye and even the people were killed, Wu Song even an innocent Daoist boy can go down to the fierce hand; their martial arts are not necessarily very high, such as the three-legged cat kung fu Kong Ming Kong Liang, and the idle Han Baisheng can also mix up the mountain; there are even people who are not very righteous, such as Wang Ying for the Qingfeng Zhai Zhizhai Lady can fight with Yan Shunhuo, Therefore, the good people of Liangshan are just a bunch of cruel people who have come together to survive in the chaotic world.
(Stills of Wu Song)
At the end of the story, most of the good men of Liangshan are actually not allowed to die well, even if there are more than thirty people who survive after the conquest of Fangla, they are inevitably persecuted in various ways, such as Song Jiang and Lu Junyi were killed, among all the good men, there is a good man who could have enjoyed glory and wealth, but he lost his official position and became a commoner because of his choice, because he betrayed his brother.

The best endings of the good guys
In fact, there are very few good people in Liangshan who have received a good death, and the people who can really get a good death are actually for a reason, such as Hu Yanzhuo, Guan Sheng, zhu Tong, they have received good official positions, why can they get such treatment? The reason is very simple, they were originally people of the imperial court, and they fell to Liangshan because of the people they called brothers and brothers.
In addition to the people who were originally from the official army, there is also a kind of person who has also received a good death, that is, a good man who has left Liangshan, such as Gongsun Sheng, who is a cultivator, who can be described as a miraculous person in the book, and even many people think that if he was present during the conquest of Fangla, Liangshan could have died a lot less, but he got out early and finally got a good death.

Another example is the "prodigal son" Yan Qing, who escaped after the conquest of Fangla, he was not blinded by the "reward" he was about to receive, he resolutely chose to leave Liangshan, and as he predicted, the imperial court did implement the "bird as much as the bow hides" thing to them, and Lu Junyi, who did not listen to persuasion, knew how smart Yan Qing was.
In fact, in addition to Gongsun Sheng and Yan Qing, there was originally a good man who could also live the second half of his life in glory and wealth, but unfortunately he did not make the right choice.
Two
The one who betrays his brothers
In fact, there are still many good men who betray their brothers on Liangshan, and the aforementioned Wang Ying is only one of them, and Bai Sheng, the "day mouse", can also be said to have betrayed his brothers, after all, he was beaten into a confession to reveal the fact that Chao Gai and others were his accomplices.
There were also the first batch of elders who went to Liangshan, zhu Gui, "touching the sky" Du Qian, and "King Kong in the clouds" Song Wan, who also betrayed their former eldest brother Wang Lun, because when Wang Lun was killed, they did not dare to confront Chao Gai, Lin Chong, and others because they were timid, and after Wang Lun's death, he immediately called chao gai and others brothers and brothers.
But the good man to whom this article is referred to is not one of the five people mentioned above, and the brother who betrayed the man is not the brother of Liangshan, the man's name is Ke Yin, and friends who are familiar with the original book already know who he is.

Ke Yin should have received the ending
Ke Yin is the "little whirlwind" Chai Jin, he ranks tenth in Liangshan, and Ke Yin is the alias he used when he incarnated as an undercover to infiltrate Fang La's camp, and the person Chai Jin betrayed was his brother Fang Jie.
Chai Jin is Fang La's son-in-law, Fang Jie is Fang La's nephew, the two are naturally brothers when they belong to Fang La's camp, but Chai Jin finally gave him a final blow when Fang Jie was cornered, helping the people of Liangshan to kill Fang Jie, and finally contributed to the fact that Liangshan defeated Fang La, some people have to say that Chai Jin was originally a person from Liangshan, as an undercover of Liangshan, he and all the good Han Li should cooperate to get rid of Fang Jie and Fang La, why say that he is stupid? In fact, the reason is very simple.
(Fang La stills)
Liangshan under the command of Song Jiang has always been for the Great Song, and Chai Jin as a descendant of the former imperial family, his ancestors' Jiangshan was taken away by the Great Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, although the latter Xu Chai's glory and wealth, but also seen in the book, Chai Jin is still oppressed, even the Danshu iron coupon is not good, to put it bluntly, his identity as a descendant of the royal family is always a nail in the eyes of the emperor, he has no reason to sell his life for the imperial court, from the perspective of character settings, Chai Jin should not join the Fang La camp to be an undercover, but sincerely surrender to the truth, Because the feelings between the good men of Liangshan are actually not solid, from the perspective of the characters' emotions, Chai Jin has no reason to fight for Song Jiang or for the Great Song in this way.
(Chai Jin stills)
Imagine Chai Jincheng as Fang La's donkey, he can use Ke Yin as his pony, enjoy the glory and wealth that should belong to his royal family, and not to the point that after the success of The Conquest of Fang La, he is doubted because of the identity of the "Fang La Horse", it can be said that he is completely laborious and unflattering, he betrayed his brother Fang Jie is a wrong move, if he betrays the "brother" of Liangshan, he will have a better ending.
It is not that the author hopes that Chai Jin will betray Liangshan, but from his life and experience, betraying Liangshan and turning to Fang La is the choice that he will make in the reasonable way of his role.
