When life is at stake, it is very important to what kind of person to defect to. If you choose the right one, you can turn the risk into a disaster. If you choose the wrong one, you will set foot on Huangquan Road in advance. The Eastern Jin Dynasty had such a father and son, because they cast the wrong person at a time of crisis. Those who could have lived were unfortunately victimized. They are Wang Han Wangying.
After the Eastern Jin Dynasty vassal Wang Dun was killed after the failed rebellion, Sima Shao wanted to suppress Wang Dun's forces. Wang Dun's son Wang Han and grandson Wang Han should be doomed, and they do not know who to defect to.
Wang Han wanted to defect to Wang Shu, because when Wang Dun was most proud, Wang Shu respectfully treated them and never said a bad word about them. It shows that he fully supports our royal family, and now that we are going to run to him, he will definitely take us in.
Wang Han's son Wang Ying objected, believing that he should defect to Wang Bin. Wang Han asked incomprehensibly: "Wang Bin has always looked at us unfavorably, and always gives us a confrontation, saying that we are going to usurp the throne." Aren't we going to run to him, not to die? Wang Ying explained, "This is exactly why we went to Wang Bin, don't look at Wang Shu on the surface to flatter us, it's because our family is in the limelight." Now that our family is about to fall, he must be afraid of being affected and wants to kill us and ask the emperor for credit. Although Wang Bin usually can't get along with us, this shows that he is a person with a great sense of justice. Don't look at him and call us thieves, he will never stand idly by when we are killed. "
Seeing this, you must think: "Of course, you should run to Wang Shu, he has never opposed Wang Han's father and son, indicating that he is their hardcore supporter." Wang Bin was fighting with them all day long, making it clear that he was a loyal vassal of the imperial court, so how could he tolerate chaotic courtiers and thieves? To run to him is to seek death. "You look down, and the next episode will surprise you.
Wang Han did not listen to his son's advice, but still took his son to defect to Wang Shu. As expected, Wang Shu learned that Wang Han's father and son were coming to defect and prepared ships to pick them up. In fact, he wanted to design to kill Wang Han's father and son, and to kill the reputation of the rebellious Yu Dang, so as to save himself. Wang Shu greeted Wang Han's father and son from afar and waited by the river early. Seeing that Wang Han's father and son had come, he picked them up on the boat with a smile on his face, asked for warmth, and cared for them. Another banquet was set up in the cabin, and several people sat around the table and drank bitterly. Wang Shu deliberately poured wine into Wang Hanwangying. Wang Hanwangying saw that Wang Shu was so enthusiastic, felt that he finally had the hope of living, and was very happy, so he drank a few more drinks. He was drunk and snored on the table like thunder.
Wang Shu suddenly turned his face and ordered his men to tie the hands and feet of Wang Han's father and son, who had fallen asleep, and throw them into the rolling river, and they sank into the water. Alas, I thought I had found a reliance, but I didn't expect to be brutally killed. One moment he was drinking and having fun, and the next moment he was buried in the belly of a fish. At the moment when he sank to the bottom of the water, Wang Han must have been thinking: "I really regret not listening to my son's advice, not seeing Wang Shu's sinister intentions, and ending up like this." Wang Ying must also think, "Father, why don't you go in when I say something?" Now we have lost our lives in vain. "
After The death of Wang Hanying, Wang Shu, who had always courted them, was considered by the imperial court to be a righteous and harmful to the country. Taking advantage of the danger of others, his despicable behavior of falling into the well was not punished, but was praised, and the official fortunes were prosperous. Feudal society is like this, one person commits a crime, and the whole clan suffers. The emperor cursed the three tribes and the nine tribes at every turn. Such a thing can happen; "Obviously it is despicable, but it has become a great righteousness." "
In fact, Wang Han should not know that Wang Bin heard that they were in distress and had already prepared a boat to pick them up. I heard that they had been killed and we deplored it. The things of the world are so easy to miss, only one step away from them can not die.
It is a pity that Wang Han has been a high-ranking official all his life, and he does not even have this bit of knowledge, and it is not as good as his son. Some people superficially greet you and please you. That's just because you're powerful, and once you lose power, he's the first person to kill you. On the contrary, if a person always gives you advice, it means that he is a righteous gentleman, jealous and hateful. Once you're in trouble, he'll pull you along.
