Natural beauty begonia flowers, a green should be the first to go out. - "Water Margin"
History has taught us a truth, that is, while the "big figures" change dynasties and leave their names in history, there are often some obscure little people behind them.
These may be as fleeting as the light of the heavens, but they are still of great significance, leaving a bright color worth remembering on this earth.
In one of the four famous works in china, "Water Margin", there are many "brilliance".
It is precisely because of their existence that history can be portrayed more completely, and the complexity of human nature can be highlighted more deeply.
Although "Water Margin" is a story framed by men, the few female characters in it are portrayed quite brilliantly, such as Hu Sanniang, one of the few positive female characters.
Her every appearance is quite brilliant, which makes people impressed by this very changing character.
But her changes also reflect the changes in Liangshan, and it is no exaggeration to say that if you understand the Third Lady, you will understand Liangshan.
First, can fight the beauty
"Natural beauty begonia flowers, a zhangqing should be the first to go out of the horse", this is the first appearance of Hu Sanniang in the book.
At that time, Song Jiang and others were going to attack Zhujiazhuang, so they sent someone to inquire about the situation.
Knowing that the third lady and Zhu Biao, the son of Zhu Jiazhuang, were already engaged, he was more wary of this Hu Jiazhuang.
Sure enough, on the way to Zhujiazhuang led by Song Jiang, he collided head-on with the team of The Third Lady of Hu, "there was a female general surrounded among the twenty or thirty horsemen", and at that time, the Third Lady of Hu was so mighty!
A beautiful woman will sit on a horse, with two sun and moon double knives in turn, such a handsome and beautiful appearance makes Wang Ying, who is already lustful, immediately unable to sit still, and takes the lead in mentioning that she wants to meet this "Yizhang Qing" for a while.
Unexpectedly, Wang Ying, a big man, did not beat a little lady, but was caught alive.
At this time, Ou Peng in Song Jiang's team couldn't help it, and immediately rushed up to continue to fight with Third Lady Hu.
The two were difficult to distinguish between each other for a while, and more and more people joined the battle, gradually changing from a single fight to a melee.
The scene suddenly fell into chaos, Song Jiang got out at this time, riding a horse to find the lost Liangshan good man, hu Sanniang also quickly chased up, wanted to capture Song Jiang alive, but did not think but collided with Li Kui.
Knowing that she was invincible, she turned her head and ran, who thought that this run fell into Lin Chong's hands again, and he caught him alive.
Song Jiang knew that this woman was not simple, so he sent the third lady back to Liangshan overnight and let his father personally take care of it.
When Third Lady Hu's brother learned of this, he hurried to beg Song Jiang and expressed his willingness to assist Song Jiang in capturing the Zhu family, and as long as someone in the Zhu family came to ask for help, he would definitely detain him and send it to Song Jiang.
The two sides reached an agreement, and the brother of the Hu family also did what he said, and directly captured the person alive when Zhu Biao came to ask for help.
What they didn't expect was that on the way to send people to Song Jiang, they encountered the black whirlwind Li Kui, and before they could say two words, Li Kui picked up an axe and cut Zhu Biao down.
And cutting him was not enough, Li Kui was actually murderous, wanted to kill the brother of the Hu family together, the brother fled in a hurry, Li Kui did not kill him, in a fit of anger, he actually rushed into the Hu family village and wiped out the Hu family.
Second, the temperament has changed greatly
By the time the good men returned to Liangshan, Third Lady Hu had already changed her personality.
Although she was adopted as a righteous daughter by Song Jiang's father, she was still a "good man of Liangshan" who was captured.
Li Kui killed her whole family, she could not take revenge, and even she may not know that Li Kui was her own enemy, and Song Jiang,the so-called "righteous brother" was not much better, he actually made the decision to marry The Third Lady to Wang Ying, a man who was not worthy of the Third Lady.
Third Lady Hu couldn't resist, and even at this moment, she had forgotten to resist.
After climbing Liangshan, she was like a piece of duckweed, if she wanted to live, she had to float on this ocean that did not belong to her.
The original life was changed little by little, and the third lady had to adapt, she became a member of the good men of Liangshan, and participated in many wars with her husband Wang Ying, and when she found that her original edges and corners were worn to the slightest, the former "Yizhangqing" had already "disappeared from Liangshan".
If it is said that the change before and after ascending Liangshan was the first change in the temperament of the third lady, then the change that occurred before and after the good man of Liangshan accepted the imperial court's invitation to the third lady was the second and most emblematic of the epitome of Liangshan.
In a battle with the county lord Qiongying, Qiongying stabbed Wang Ying's left leg and forced Wang Ying to get off his horse. Seeing this, The Third Lady scolded Qiong Ying, "Thief."
At this time, the third lady was like a city shrew, saying dirty words casually.
But has she ever thought that Qiongying, who is now dressed in angry clothes, is exactly the shadow of herself, and all the denials she has made to Qiongying now are denying her original self?
The reason why Hu Sanniang can be so confident is because of one reason - the imperial court zhao'an.
After the imperial court recruited security, these people suddenly had a "establishment", and the banner of "for the Heavenly Path" that they had originally fought against the imperial court had long been forgotten, and instead of it, it was only the so-called justice above the court.
And such a change in Hu Sanniang is actually reflected in many good men of Liangshan, what kind of characters Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, and other people were at the beginning, they wanted to have force and force, they had to have plans and plans, and they had their own thoughts when they talked and did things.
But now?
They have a "skin bag" given by the imperial court, but in fact, they have long been "out of their minds."
Third, understand Liangshan
After accepting the imperial court's recruitment, one hundred and eight generals began to be used as guns, participating in various wars of all sizes, and in such an era of the Song Dynasty, which emphasized literature and light weapons, the imperial court's own military generals were still not valued, not to mention those who came from the "wild road"?
In the process of serving the imperial court, the good men of Liangshan died and were wounded, and the original heroes withered one by one, and in the end, there were only a few people left.
In the battle with Fang La, the character of Hu Sanniang finally ushered in her ending.
Due to the enemy's repeated "magic tricks", she and her husband were unable to catch each other, and eventually died on the battlefield.
The death of Hu Sanniang made the author write the sentence "Poor can fight the beautiful people, to this spring dream", and her ending is also like a metaphor, hinting at the final ending of a group of good men in Liangshan.
Therefore, the character of Hu Sanniang seems to have not appeared much, but in fact, the role is very large.
She is like a summary of the current situation of the good men in Liangshan, and when she understands the Third Lady, she naturally understands Liangshan.
