#雪中悍刀行征文 #
The opening scene of the TV series "Knife Line in the Snow" began from the three-year travel of Xu Fengnian and Lao Huang, although Xu Xiao did not appear at this time, but the "human slaughter" character has labeled Xu Xiao with a huge treacherous evil, bloodthirsty and cruel, inhuman label, a pair of heavenly and earth-made combinations, and it is also the most hated negative role in the audience's heart, there is no one.
And Jiang Ni is the princess of the Western Chu State who was destroyed by Xu Xiao, the daughter of the emperor, between Xu Xiao's father and son Xu Fengnian and Jiang Ni, it can be said that the hatred of the country and the family hate, this hatred is endless. When Xu Fengnian returned to Beilin, Xiao Jiang Ni's appearance began with the assassination of Xu Feng, which seemed to be to confirm or strengthen the previous setting of Xu's father and son role, at this time in the hearts of the audience, Xu Xiao was already an unforgivable crime.
But as the plot unfolds, it doesn't seem like that. Later, Yu Youwei assassinated Xu Fengnian, and in Jiang Ni's recollection of Yu Youwei, it was Xu Xiao who occupied the palace before the others, agreed to the request of the Western Chu Emperor, allowed the people in the palace to commit suicide, and took Jiang Ni away, avoiding the Western Chu royal family from becoming a prisoner of war and becoming a plaything of the departing nobles. From this point of view, Xu Xiao is not a brutal butcher, and the war seems to be a product of necessity, and it still retains a bit of humanity in the war. As Cao Cao said, "If you are not alone here today, how many people will be called emperors?" How many people are kings? ”
If human nature is complex, politicians are even more complex, and many times they cannot be evaluated by simple morality. For example, Xu Xiao can see that in order to ensure the interests of the Military and Political Clique of the Northern Starlings, on the one hand, he has made great strides in politics, used people as pawns, and used all opportunities to seek power and change; on the other hand, he has established a spiritual hall for those brothers who died in battle, never forgetting at all times, and for those lonely veterans, not forgetting their lives, visiting them year after year. This is reminiscent of Rommel, the desert fox of the World War II period, in the Battlefield of North Africa, preferential treatment of prisoners of war, prisoners of war labor will be paid, equal treatment of white and black laborers, if not on behalf of fascism, Rommel in daily life is a model of high morality. As the historical record describes Liu Bang after learning of Han Xin's death, "the emperor is happy and pitiful", which exhausts the complexity of politics and the helplessness of human nature.
