Fan Ye (398-445) was a native of Shunyang of the Southern Song Dynasty. Born in a family of gatekeepers, he is a scholarly family, multi-talented, knows the rhythm of music, and is good at playing loquats. Since childhood, he has been intelligent and studious, well-versed in history, and famous for his good writing when he was a minor. The Book of the Later Han, together with the Shiji, the Book of Han and the Records of the Three Kingdoms, is called the "Four History". As soon as the Fan Book came out, all the Eastern Han history books were scrapped. Emperor Wen of Song's official to the general of Zuowei, the crown prince Zhan Shi, was in charge of the forbidden brigade, and won Emperor Wen's trust.
Prominent family lineage, overflowing talent, rich knighthood, and famous masterpieces, where to find such a proud son of heaven? But all this did not make Fan Ye satisfied, but made him proud of everything. The history books say that he "had a handsome talent, but he was shallow in love, and he committed several famous teachings, and was despised by the scholars." Sexual irritability, self-proclaimed talent is inexhaustible, often sluggish. That is to say, although he is talented, he does not abide by the Normal Rites, he is an out-and-out villain, and people hate him. All day long, he looked depressed and unhappy, cursing and complaining, like a grudge.
It's already a good mix, Fan Dacaizi, be content, don't you still want to be an emperor? At least be a prime minister, who makes us so talented?
Who is left in the world? The great genius Fan Ye looked at no one well. He looked down on his top boss, the crown princess of Liu Yikang, the king of Pengcheng, died, Liu Yikang gathered his colleagues and old friends to discuss the funeral ceremony in the palace, but Fan Ye gathered his friends to drink, and for fear that people would not know, he opened the window and listened to people's elegiac and drank. Liu Yikang was furious and demoted him to Xuancheng Taishou. Fan Ye was very depressed, and the bored Fan Dacaizi began to compile the Book of the Later Han. It is also thanks to this demotion that Fan Dacaizi has proud capital.
It's okay to look down on his boss, he doesn't even look down on his biological mother. Fan Ye lived in a luxurious villa, spending all day on brocade clothes, jade, food and wine, prostitutes were full of pearls and wore gold and silver, but his mother lived in a simple firewood room, he turned a blind eye, which was simply inferior to pigs and dogs.
Fan Ye, you don't ask for the people's life, you have to think about your biological mother, just think about it as precise poverty alleviation, you read so many sage books to the dog's belly? It can be seen that the more knowledge, the more reactionary!
The ox man Fan Ye even looked at the emperor as nothing. He is good at playing the pipa, Emperor Wen of Song wants to hear it very much, but he is embarrassed to say, repeatedly hinting that he plays a song, Fan musician just does not give face, and every time he always cares about him, making the emperor so embarrassed. I just don't serve you, what can you do with me? Have the ability to play it yourself, sample! At a banquet, Emperor Wen of Song, who was so anxious to scratch his ears and cheeks, had to ignore his identity and begged in a low voice: "Ai Qing, I'm so excited today, I really want to sing a song, can you accompany me?" Speaking of this, Fan Ye had to obey.
In the end, Fan Dacai, who thought he was the number one in the world, actually embarked on the road of rebellion by ghostly means, which shows that he is tired of living.
It is said that the emperor treated him well, and Emperor Wen of Song was not a comatose monarch, and Fan Ye should not rebel. Fan Ye's former superior Prime Minister Liu Yikang was also demoted to local labor reform by Emperor Wen of Song because of his greed for power. He had an old subordinate with feelings and righteousness, Kong Yixian, who pulled a pole of people, secretly wanted to launch a coup d'état to get rid of Emperor Wen of Song, and supported Liu Yikang as emperor, and he could also take the opportunity to make some political capital. He felt that there were not enough people, and he was a little talker, so he thought of Fan Ye, who held real power, had a stomach of resentment, and was greedy for money and lustful.
This Kong Yixian was "erudite in literature and history, versed in mathematics, and had vertical and horizontal intelligence", but was "unknown at the time and indignant". One day, he observed the sky at night and thought that Emperor Wen of Song would die, that the Song Chamber would kill each other, and that Jiangzhou should produce the Son of Heaven, that is, Liu Yikang. The opportunity has finally come! But if you want to pull Fan Ye into the water, it's not so easy, how can a commander of the capital garrison, a senior cadre of the third grade, follow a person with a much lower status than himself to kill off his head?
So Kong Xi first passed through Fan Ye's nephew Xie Zhen and was close to Fan Ye. First of all, he deliberately lost a lot of money to Fan Ye through gambling, and deliberately lost his delicate concubine to Fan Ye, so the relationship between the two suddenly warmed up and became brothers and sisters. Then, Kong Xixian persuaded Fan Ye to rebel. Fan Ye was stunned at first, but he was moved. In the end, Kong Xi first adopted the method of agitation and said, "If you think that the imperial court treats each other generously, why don't you intermarry you because the portal is not suitable?" Isn't it too confusing for others to treat you like a pig and dog, while you are determined to serve them? This point was exactly what Fan Ye was worried about, and Fan Ye was deeply ashamed of not becoming the emperor's sons and daughters. So Hu Li Lingzhi fainted, his brain was hot, he wanted to "build extraordinary merits, and let go of his humiliation", and dizzily boarded the thief's ship.
Everything is ready, everything is on the string. In September of the twenty-second year of Yuan Jia (445), Emperor Wen of Song set up a banquet in Wuzhenggang to worship the god of the road, and Fan Ye and others scheduled an incident on this day. On that day, the rebel Xu Yao guarded the emperor, probably waiting impatiently, and constantly pulled out his sword and slapped the hilt to stare at Fan Ye, meaning you quickly give the order, brother, don't miss the opportunity. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the coward Fan Ye was provoked, so frightened that his eyes did not dare to look at Xu Yao, and he lost a great opportunity to rebel. Xu Yao stomped his foot behind his back and scolded, "It's really unlucky to follow such a coward leader who has more than enough success and failure!" Xu Zhanzhi, a key member of the rebellion, saw that it was difficult to succeed, so he took the lead in exposing this matter. As a result, the rebellion plan failed, and the rebels were swept away.
Xie Zhen, Kong Xixian and others immediately pleaded guilty, but only Fan Ye refused to turn himself in. The defense said: "I don't know about this at all, it was Kong Xixian's thief kid who randomly pulled my name." Kong Xi first heard that Fan Ye did not admit it, and said to the interrogators with a smile: "All the arrangements and letters written by Fan Ye were written or revised by Fan Ye, why should they deny it like this?" The emperor took out Fan Ye's ink to show him, and the human evidence and material evidence were there, and Fan Ye had to confess.
He wrote a poem in prison: "Although there is no Ji Shengqin, it is the same as Xiahou Se" and "I don't know everything from the cause, and I am ugly and ugly." This means that although I, Fan Ye, can't calmly play the piano like Ji Kang when he was killed, I can also be like Xiahou Xuan's face when he was about to be executed. Alas, it is a great shame for a great talent like me to die with you mediocre people! They are all dying to the end, and they are still showing their talents and boasting.
Fan Ye, is your kid really a good man who looks at death like home? And watch your performance on your deathbed.
On the execution ground, Fan Ye saw that he was about to be the first to be killed, and in order to survive, he said to his nephew Xie Jiao, "Is the order of punishment also according to the size of the official position?" "Subtext: Kill my nephew Xie Jiao first, let me live a little longer." Xie Zhan said sarcastically: "You are the head thief!" Of course, the first one should be killed! While awaiting his execution, he wept. Kong Xixian and Xie Jiao ridiculed him again, saying, "Zhan Shi used to be in public, pointing out the rivers and mountains and stirring up words, all of them rolled their sleeves and glared at him impassionedly, and later, on the shooting hall in Xichi, the Prancing Horse looked back, and he regarded himself as a hero of the first life, is he so afraid of death now?" Suppose the emperor spares you from death, and the courtiers murder the monarch, what face is there to live in the world? Fan Dacaizi, I'm afraid it's impossible not to die today, come and show your manly heroism! Fan Ye was ashamed and speechless, and turned to the jailer: "It's a pity that such a talent is buried!" The jailer said, "What is the killing of the unfaithful?"
Fan Ye and his son Fan Yi were also killed. The wife first stroked his son, turned back and scolded Fan Ye and said: "You are not a hundred-year-old mother, you do not thank the Son of Heaven for his kindness, although it is not a pity to die if you want to die, why should you kill innocent descendants?" Fan Ye only laughed dryly. Fan Ye's biological mother cried at him: "The emperor treats you well, you don't know how to be grateful, and you don't worry about my old age, what else can I say today?" Saying that, he hit Fan Ye's neck and cheeks with his hand. The sister and the prostitute came to say goodbye, and Fan Ye wept and wept. Nephew Xie Jiao laughed again and said, "Uncle's face is far inferior to Xiahou Xuan's look." Fan Ye had to hold back his tears and stop crying. His son Fan Yi grabbed the soil and peels on the ground and threw Fan Ye, resenting him for injuring the Fan family.
Fan Ye, a generation of talents, died, with his full of resentment and insatiable desires.
Parents, wives, sons, accomplices, and the world all resented and rebuked him, and it can be said that everyone betrayed and died.
Unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, unrighteous, Fan Ye, what is it to live to this extent, not to die? Pathos!
Fortunately, you still have a "Book of the Later Han", which can be left in history, otherwise, it will really be a stench for ten thousand years.
The ancients said: "When the moon is full, it is a loss, and when the water is full, it is profitable". Lao Tzu said: "There is no greater calamity than not being content." Believe it!
Sima Guang said that talent is called a villain, and if Fan Ye is a villain, he can be described as a villain.
