He Yan and Lü Yijian: The same approach, different endings, different intentions

author:Literature and history poured out

Spring silkworms spit silk and cocoon themselves for evolution, which seems a little unintelligent, but at least they are not harmful. Unlike some people, who not only harm others, but also harm themselves, in the end, they are smart and mistaken, and harm others and eventually harm themselves.

At the end of the Three Kingdoms period, Sima Yi staged a coup d'état to control the Northern Wei regime and arrested Cao Shuang. In order to pacify Cao Shuang's power in the middle of the dynasty, Sima Yi specially asked Cao Shuang's minions He Yan to supervise the case and eliminate Cao Shuang's henchmen. In order to protect himself, He Yan sold Cao Shuang's foundation to the ground, completely forgetting who gave him food. Cao Shuang had eight major families serving him, and He Yan only checked seven of them.

The last remaining family is He Yan's family. Originally, He Yan thought that he was working so hard, Sima Yi should have remembered that he took the initiative to surrender and let him go. But he never expected that Sima Yi would eventually attack him. After these seven families were liquidated, He Yan had no team, and he had no value for Sima Yi, and there was no support behind him. For things that have no value, Sima Yi, an outstanding politician, naturally will not keep them. He Yan was eventually taken into custody by Sima Yi and killed at the same time as Cao Shuang. This kind of person who eats the boss's meal and sells the boss and the team to the end is also deserved.

He Yan and Lü Yijian: The same approach, different endings, different intentions

Compared with What happened to He Yan, Lü Yijian during the Song Dynasty was much better. Lü Yijian entered the official field through the imperial examination, served as a local official for many years, and gradually reached the central government by relying on his political achievements. Empress Liu's reign was strongly supported by Lü Yijian. Lü Yijian's fundamental purpose in supporting Empress Liu was still for the stability of the court, and from this point of view, Lü Yijian was obviously a capable minister with a big picture view.

Empress Liu died of illness, and Emperor Renzong of Song took over the government. In order to get rid of Empress Liu's influence, Emperor Renzong of Song decided to carry out a major blood exchange in the imperial court, which was strongly supported by the chancellor Lü Yijian. Lü Yijian was a hardcore supporter of Empress Liu and also a chancellor, and he naturally knew who Empress Liu's henchmen were. So he drafted a list and handed it to Song Renzong. As a result, the next day, a list of expatriate officials came out, including Lu Yijian's name.

This sudden blow made Lu Yijian a little depressed, yesterday the two junchen were still good to you, I was good to everyone, and as a result, today I was stabbed in the back by Song Renzong. Lü Yijian was sent abroad to work as a magistrate in Liaozhou. Liaozhou was not far from Bieliang, but it was eventually driven out of the center. Song Renzong's approach this time made Lü Yijian slightly chilled, but he also knew that Song Renzong's approach was right, and everyone else had been transferred out, and naturally he was not spared.

Lü Yijian's approach at that time was no different from He Yan in the Three Kingdoms period, and he sold the team out after the boss fell. However, the difference is that during the Song Dynasty, the emperor was quite tolerant of civilian officials, even if he committed a serious crime, as long as it was not a serious crime such as rebellion, the civil servants basically would not lose their heads. Although the regime was changed, those central civil servants were only transferred out of the central government, and Lü Yijian's move was not harmful.

Song Renzong

Another difference is that He Yan betrayed the team for self-preservation, while Lü Yijian betrayed the team for the purpose of establishing a self-centered regime for Song Renzong. The starting point is different, so in the end, Lu Yijian's end is much better than He Yan's.

Soon after Lü Yijian was transferred from the central government, Song Renzong felt that the suppression was almost over, and it was not enough for the DPRK to leave Lü Yijian for too long, so he recalled Lü Yijian to the central government again, and Lü Yijian was once again the prime minister.

Lü Yijian rose and fell three times, and died of illness in the second year of the Qing calendar, at the age of sixty-six, and Song Renzong commented on his worries about the country and forgot his body. With his character being leveraged, He Yan could not be compared with him at all.
