I. "Water Margin" inside and outside the play
From the perspective of the book "Water Margin" to observe and analyze, Song Jiang Zhaoan is indeed the best choice. As Song Jiang himself said: "I advocate Zhao'an, to change from evil to righteousness, and to be a subject of the state, how to chill the hearts of everyone." (From "Water Margin")
Who wants to be a thief for the rest of their lives? Who doesn't want to live with dignity? Why do the good men of Liangshan all eat large pieces of meat, drink wine in large mouths, and only want to get drunk in this day, no matter tomorrow's worries, and they are generally not good at women? Not that I don't want to, but the conditions are not allowed!
Let's say Wu Song, it can be said that it is shrewd and abnormal, why does Zhang Du supervise the use of a "Xu with Yulan as a wife", let Wu Song bite the hook?
The answer was simple, Wu Song thought at that time that he had embarked on the road of "reforming evil and returning to righteousness", and that he could live in a correct way, and naturally had a normal desire to "marry and have children". Of course, if it were not for Wang Ying, the author would have nothing to say. But the question is, is Wang Ying the mainstream of the good men of Liangshan? The answer is self-evident.
At the same time, it is precisely because "reforming evil and returning to righteousness and recruiting all the gangs" is the mainstream of Liangshan that it has caused the embarrassing situation that although Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, and Li Kui oppose it, no one follows up.
For example, it is said that Shi Jin and Lu Zhishen have the most iron relationship, but when Lu Zhishen opposed Zhao'an, why was he silent? Moreover, when Song Jiang explained to Lu Zhishen the reasons for zhao'an, he also thanked Song Jiang "everyone." (From "Water Margin").
A "crowd" word said that Zhao'an is the mainstream of Liangshan. Nowadays, those of us who hold the "script" in our hands have opened up the "God perspective", of course, we know that Zhao'an is a dead end, so we have crusaded against Song Jiang Zhao'an. But you and I are not people in the play, how can we replace these good men of Liangshan?
In fact, what we can do is to find the root cause of Song Jiang Zhaoan's failure through post-mortem analysis, and strive to learn from it to serve their respective life paths, rather than "worrying about the ancients".
After all, in a strict sense, who is not a person in the play, who can really distinguish between the inside and outside of the play?
Second, Song Jiang Zhao'an had two major mistakes
First of all, it must be affirmed that Song Jiang will do a very good job of Liangshan. Before the surrender, they all clearly expressed: It is not me Song Jiang or Liangshan that you surrendered, but we play a game of "curve return" to force the imperial court to recruit us.
It is precisely because there is a large wave of descending generals that Zhao'an has become the mainstream of Liangshan. Secondly, it should be said that Song Jiang's mistakes are summarized as two main.
First: The sponsor is too wrong. Song Jiang first worshiped Tai Wei, and then arrested Gao Li on Liangshan and did not kill him, eating and drinking well, and wanted Gao Li to be the introducer. These two are all high-ranking officials of the imperial court, according to the usual thinking, by introducing Liangshan Zhao'an, they can also increase their own merit and voice, which is a win-win situation.
But the problem is that the end result is that Master Li has become the first (and most critical) introducer. When the author originally wrote the analysis of the Water Margin, he mentioned that Master Li was a famous prostitute who could not come to the table in "Water Margin". Zhao'an belongs to the bright and upright family and country affairs, is this kind of mix-and-match unusual?
Whether it was Yu Su Taiwei, Gao Li, or even those ministers in the temple, how would they think of the good people of Liangshan?
Some people may say that they can't do anything without looking for Master Li. That's because I haven't read the original text of "Water Margin". It was written very clearly, and Cai Jing moved the mind of Zhao'an Liangshan, and then wanted to give the credit to his son-in-law Liang Zhongshu.
This is equivalent to having three court officials who can be referrals. No matter which one is successful, is it equivalent to the good men of Liangshan, on an insurance? At the very least, they are a hundred times stronger than Master Li, who came to be this introducer.
So what does all this mean? Just one: Song Jiang is a man, there is no bottom line!
This is actually the reason why Gao Li and Cai Jing had to kill Song Jiang, it was too similar to himself, once Song Jiang gained power, it would be a threat!
Second: the means are too shameless! Liangshan on Zhu Tong? Forced by Song Jiang, Wu Yong, and Li Kui. The most infuriating thing is that Zhu Tong is also Song Jiang's life-saving father. As a result, after Zhu Tong went to Liangshan, he was like an invisible person, and he could not work before zhao'an. Song Jiang also had to give him a high position, ranking tenth, higher than Lu Zhishen and Wu Song.
Why did Gongsun Sheng go and return? Forced by Li Kui with an axe. In order to break Gao Lian's spell, Song Jiang ordered Daizong and Li Kui to invite Gongsun Sheng to return, causing Li Kui to axe Luo Zhenren.
Before Gongsun Sheng made it clear that he was no longer playing, he borrowed home to visit his old mother and left. However, Song Jiang asked Li Kui to pursue him, first to intimidate Gongsun Sheng's mother, and then to kill his master Luo Zhenren.
Isn't that outrageous! Therefore, when Gongsun Sheng returned to Liangshan, he almost became an invisible person, and he didn't care about anything except using spells.
There was also Lu Junyi, who was dignified in front of the staff, but Song Jiang wanted to make people act as robbers, causing Lu Junyi's family to be destroyed and almost killed.
Although Song Jiang's shameless means were profitable for a while, they had far-reaching disasters, and two terrible enemies were cultivated in Liangshan, constantly digging pits for Song Jiang Zhao'an. However, Song Jiang did not understand it until his death, and he also wrongfully killed Li Kui.
Three, the two most terrible good men
The first terrible enemy was Gongsun Sheng. Why did the good man of Liangshan end up dying and being injured so badly? There is an accepted reason that Gongsun Sheng left, exposing the good man of Liangshan to the dimensionality reduction blow of the Water Margin Mage. That's why Wu Song broke his arm.
Therefore, Song Jiang had long realized the importance of the mage. For example, after surrendering Fan Rui, Song Jiang ordered Gongsun Sheng to become Fan Rui's master and teach him spells. As a result, Gongsun Shengli ignored this matter, and Fan Rui did not learn the "Five Thunder Heavenly Gang Rectification Method" until the end.
During the conquest of Tianhu in Hebei, Song Jiang was again given Qiao Daoqing. Although his spells were inferior to Gongsun Sheng's, they were stronger than Fan Rui's, and he once captured Lu Zhishen and Wu Song alive, forcing Song Jiang, Lin Chong, and others to commit suicide. As a result, before conquering Fang La, Qiao Daoqing also left. The reason is that his friend Sun An is dead. But is that true? Look at the original text of the Water Margin.
Song Jiang had to allow it to be released. It's a farewell to wine. Gongsun Sheng was in the air, but did not make a sound. Qiao Daoqing and Ma Ling resigned from Song Jiang and Gongsun Sheng, and then went to pay their respects to Chen to appease him. The two drifted away. Later, Qiao Daoqing and Ma Ling both went to Luo Zhenren to learn the Tao from their teachers, so that they could live forever.
There are three points in the original text that point to Gongsun Sheng. The first time was before bidding farewell, Gongsun Sheng was speechless throughout the whole process and did not persuade at all. The second time was when he said goodbye, Qiao Daoqing went to bid farewell to Gongsun Sheng. The third time was that qiao Daoqing finally went to Luo Zhenren and played happily with Gongsun Sheng.
It should be noted that in addition to Luo Zhenren, Qiao Daoqing listened to Gongsun Sheng's words the most. After Qiao Daoqing left, Gongsun Sheng also left.
What does this mean? It seems that it can only show that when Qiao Daoqing left Song Jiang, Gongsun Sheng was fully supportive—and it was not even ruled out that Gongsun Sheng directed it. Because if Qiao Daoqing was still following Song Jiang, then when fang la was conquered, there was this powerful mage, how could the good man of Liangshan die so tragically?
Therefore, this is equivalent to Gongsun Sheng digging a pit for Song Jiang and demolishing Taiwan. The reason for this is that Song Jiang is too shameless. At the same time, it was precisely because the good man of Liangshan went to seven or eight, and the smoke dissipated, Gao Li and others dared to poison Song Jiang, making his zhao an a nightmare!
The second terrible enemy is deeper into the sea, and this is Yan Qing! Lu Junyi's IQ was worrying, and he was sold by Song Jiang and helped with some money. But Yan Qing was unable to fool anyone, after shooting Dong Chao and Xue Ba, Lu Junyi was still confused and asked, "Although you forcibly saved my life, but shot these two public people, this crime is getting heavier and heavier." Where to go? ”
Yan Qing replied, "It was Song Gongming who suffered the master." When you don't go to Liangshan Today, there is nowhere else to go. ”
How could Yan Qing, who was so shrewd and so loyal to Lu Junyi, tolerate Song Jiang harming Lu Junyi and himself so shamelessly?
This also explains that after Lu Junyi and Yan Qing were forced to go to Liangshan, when Yan Qing ran for Song Jiang, he asked Song Huizong for the "Holy Will to Avoid Death". That is to say, when Yan Qing ran to Zhao'an, he realized that Song Jiang Zhao'an had no good results. But Yan Qing still worked hard to do this for Song Jiang.
Later, when fang la was consulted, Yan Qing took the initiative to follow Chai into the undercover Fang La, and in the end, when everyone else was furious and arrested Fang La, Yan Qing took advantage of the chaos to get two quintals of jewelry, "Yan Qing rushed into the cave, called several henchmen to accompany him, and went to Nakuli to abduct two quintals of gold beads to soften out" (from "Water Margin").
So what does Yan Qing do with jewelry? Of course, it was to leave Song Jiang, which is well known to everyone, and Yan Qing persuaded Lu Junyi to leave together. That is to say, for Yan Qing: You Song Jiang caused my master and my family to die and forced to fall into the grass, then don't blame me Yan Qing for being rude.
Therefore, Yan Qingcai persuaded Lu Junyi to go together. However, Lu Junyi was still a mushy brain, and he had to seek his own death. In the end, Yan Qing could only carry the Holy Will to Avoid Death, and picked up these jewels and did not know where to go.
Obviously, since Yan Qing went to Liangshan, almost every step of yanqing had been carefully considered and prepared for the future, but it led Song Jiang to the abyss...
Therefore, why did Song Jiang Zhao'an not have good results, the two most terrible good men were all around him, carrying out various layouts, and digging pits and laying mines for him without anything. However, before Song Jiang died, he was afraid that Li Kui would rebel and poison him, and he had no idea how he had fallen to this step.
Speaking of the two points, Song Jiang is a man by any means, there is no bottom line in doing things, not only cultivated a strong enemy internally, but also caused external blows, so under the joint efforts of the inside and outside, Song Jiang Yan can not be a tragedy in life, and Zhao An Yan can not become a tragedy...
