"A gentleman is frank, and the villain is long and relative", if the number is seated, Xiahou Xuan can be called a gentleman, and Zhong Hui is a villain. From the text, we see Xiahou Xuan's awe-inspiring bones, and we also see Zhong Hui's sinister and despicable appearance. In some historical periods, it is inevitable that there will be times when villains will succeed and justice will be lost, but time will eventually prove that who will become starlight and who will rot in the mud.

Xiahou Xuan's heroic dedication can be described as "sacrificing life for righteousness", and some things in life are indeed more noble than life, such as integrity, such as dignity. In the face of Dayi, Xiahou Xuan chose to sacrifice himself, and this spirit is undoubtedly worth learning from future generations. Of course, in real life, the things that require us to defend integrity and righteousness by sacrificing our lives are after all a minority, and in many cases, we will face some more trivial choices. In that case, some sense of justice may begin to weaken or tilt, because the matter itself has less negative effects, making us neglect to hold on, which is not advisable. Be pure, always be the same at all times, adhere to the principle can not waver, let the outside world change, I stand still.
