Lu Xun's "Social Drama"
Mr. Lu Xun's novel "Social Drama" is a classic article in the middle school Chinese textbook, and the affectionate memories and delicate depictions of the beautiful life of childhood in Mr. Lu Xun's text have influenced generations of Chinese.
I believe that many people, when studying this text, must be described in the text, a red-shirted clown, tied to a pillar, to a white-bearded old man with a horse whip, deeply remembered, and like Mr. Lu Xun, I think it is the best fold in the play.
In fact, this play is a fold in the Shao opera "Five Beauty Pictures", called "Hanging in the Garden". The story told is that during the reign of Emperor Dezong of Tang, the traitorous minister Lu Qi killed Zhongliang Jin Dianbang and ordered Qianzong Ding Feng to go and arrest his son Jin Wenming.
Portrait of Lu Qi
This Jin Wenming, on the way to escape, hid in the back garden of Zhu Wenguang, the Duke of Dingguo, and happened to run into Zhu Wenguang's daughter Zhu Xiufeng visiting the garden.
After Zhu Xiufeng asked the reason for the situation, he deeply understood the great righteousness and stayed in the Jin Wen Ming Garden for temporary refuge.
Ding Feng tracked all the way to this point and entered the garden to inquire, but saw that Zhu Xiufeng was young and beautiful, so he instigated Lu Tingbao, the son of Lu Qi, to come and flirt.
Next, jin Wenming's hero saves the United States and drives them out of the garden.
How could this Lu Tingbao give up and give up, and then ordered Ding Feng to gather the family and take advantage of the dark night to break into the Zhu Mansion garden again and prepare to rob Zhu Xiufeng.
When Zhu Wenguang returned to his home at night, he took Lu Tingbao and Ding Feng, tied them up and hung them, and punished them for writing "uniforms" on the spot.
The red-shirted clown written in the Language textbook is Lu Tingbao, the old man with white flowers, of course, Zhu Wenguang.
This is a drama, and many of the plots are purely fictional, such as Lu Qi's son robbing the people's daughters.
However, it is true that Lu Qi was written in the play to mutilate Zhongliang.
This Lu Qi was a famous traitor of the Tang Dynasty, but after the famous door, his grandfather Lu Huaishen, who was the prime minister who worked with Yao Chong during the Xuanzong Dynasty, although he was in a high position, he was a clean and honest official, and his family had no spares. His father, Lu Yi, was martyred for the country when An Lushan attacked the eastern capital Luoyang, and Emperor Suzong of Tang gave the gift of Shangshu, which was included in the "Biography of Zhongyi".
It is said that such a famous and prestigious family that has been loyal to the country for several generations and has a pure family style should not produce a freak like Lu Qi, who mutilates loyalty and harms the country and the people, but Lu Qi is still so hard to plunge into the Fanyang Lu clan, this family with high wind and bright festivals, like a grain of rat, the eyes of the people.
This Lu Qi is not only not like the Lu family, but also not like Chinese, let's first look at the old Book of Tang's record of his appearance:
Ugly and blue, everyone looks at it.
It is said that men, do not need to rely on the appearance of food, ugly a little bit does not matter, but the generation of Lu Qi's appearance, it is really unacceptable, it is simply ugly out of the Tang Dynasty, ugly out of the earth, ugly to the rhythm of the whole universe ah.
Ugly is ugly, but also a whole blue, this blue like a ghost, in the dark night, who sees who is not afraid ah.
From the perspective of today's people, about this Lu Qi was born with a pair of blue eyes, an eagle hook nose, and is a mixed-race child, maybe, anyway, the Tang Dynasty was open at that time, and foreign girls were all over the street, but his mixed-race mixture was not successful, and the mixture was a little scary.
For Lu Qi's strange and ugly appearance, it was Guo Ziyi who knew people accurately and fiercely.
Relying on the grace of the ancestors, Lu Ziyi at that time was already a royal historian, once Guo Ziyi was ill, colleagues came to visit, Guo Ziyi's concubines and concubines did not shy away, but when Lu Qi came to visit, Guo Ziyi drove everyone away, leaning on the bed alone, waiting for him to come.
Later, when the family asked him why, Guo Ziyi said a passage that made the whole family inhale the cool air and creepy:
Ugly and dangerous, left and right will laugh. If this person seizes power, there is no class in our race.
Later, after Lu Qi was promoted to prime minister, in the Dezong Dynasty, the open sword and the dark sword set off one bloody storm after another, and too many ministers of the DPRK and China were destroyed as a result, just as Guo Ziyi expected.
The first person he sharpened his knife against was his direct competitor Yang Yan.
This Yang Yan was the initiator and promoter of the two tax laws of the Dezong Dynasty, and he still contributed to the Zhongxing of the Middle Tang Dynasty, but he also had a problem with this person, that is, he would repay the favor.
He was originally dependent on Yuan Zai, the chancellor of the Daizong Dynasty, and was said to be Yuan Zai's nephew, relying on his uncle, Yang Yan successfully ascended the throne, and in the ninth year of the Gregorian calendar, he was promoted to the position of official attendant, but the good times were not long, and in the twelfth year of the Great Calendar, Yuan Zai, who was in charge of the government and was tyrannical, was given the throne by Emperor Daizong, and Yang Yan was also demoted to Sima of Daozhou.
Later, in the Dezong Dynasty, relying on the recommendation of the prime minister Cui Youfu, he gradually increased the rank of official and knight, and finally achieved the position of prime minister.
This Yang Yan is handsome, literary and tall, history records him "beautiful eyebrows", "Jun Fengyu", in short, a rich and handsome one, so with people ugly, bad heart Lu Qi worked with the dynasty, Yang Yan every day is motion sickness and seasickness, so he often said that he was sick and did not go to work. When handling dprk-China affairs, of course, he and Lu Qi talked with chickens and ducks, and they did not conspire with each other.
This Lu Qi also hated Yang Yan: In addition to being handsome, you are not as bad as me? Framing Duan Xiushi and giving death to Liu Yan are not all ghosts you have tricked? Neither of us will say anything about anyone.
Yang Yan stills
People say that the wicked have their own evil grinding, and this Yang Yan has an unformed son named Yang Hongye, who is the prime minister of the dynasty and often does things that violate the law and discipline and accept bribes on behalf of his father.
Yang Yan had a grudge with a man named Yan Ying, and Lu Qi deliberately recommended Yan Yin to be the Imperial Grand Master, and then asked Yan Yin to investigate what his son had committed.
As long as it is an official, who can afford to investigate, this Yang Yan is no exception, and as a result, it was found that when Yang Yan built the family temple, he sold a set of private houses in Dongdu, and finally was bought by Yin Zhao Huibo of Henan at a high price, which was obviously a bribe in disguise.
After that, Lu Qi sent people everywhere to spread rumors that the family temple built by Yang Yan was where Wang Qi was located, and Yang Yan deliberately built a family temple here, of course, there was an ulterior motive, and his heart was reprehensible.
In the end, Emperor Dezong was furious, and Yang Yan was demoted to Sima of Yazhou.
On the way to Yazhou, passing through the ghost gate, Yang Yan, who had a premonition, wrote a poem saying:
Ten thousand miles away, a thousand knowledge and no return.
Where is Cliff State? The ghost door of life is closed.
In the end, in the land of a hundred miles away from The Cliff Prefecture, Yang Yan was strangled to death by the eunuch Zheng Defeng.
After Yang Yan's death, Lu Qi recommended Guan Bo to Emperor Dezong, saying that he was "polite and loyal", and indeed, later Guan Bo obeyed Lu Qi's words, and when he held a meeting, he went to a meeting to sign a name, even if it was finished, he never spoke, and was a standard puppet prime minister.
At this point, Lu Qifang was satisfied.
Cunning rabbits die, lackeys cook.
After Yang Yan's death, Lu Qi took another opportunity to demote Yan Ying to the history of FeiZhou's assassination, and later, Yan Ying, who had not gained any benefits, learned that Zhao Huibo, who had been framed by him, had died in prison, and he was full of remorse, and a year later, he was depressed.
Lu Qi, who had served as chancellor, was a highly respected and upright elder of the dprk, and Lu Qi was worried that Emperor Dezong would reactivate him, so in July of the fourth year of Jianzhong, he instigated Emperor Dezong to send Li Yu, who was more than seventy years old, to send an envoy to Xifan, and when Li Yu, who later successfully completed his mission, when he arrived in Fengzhou, the elderly man, after a long journey, eventually died of illness in Fengzhou.
The poet Du Mu's grandfather Du You, who was also highly respected and respected, was treated with courtesy by Emperor Dezong, and was also jealous of Lu Qi, who was jealous of his ability, and made rumors in front of the emperor, and was eventually demoted to raozhou assassin history.
Duy
Also in the fourth year of Jianzhong, Huaixi Jiedu made Li Xilie launch a rebellion and attack Ruzhou, once again making the bad Lu Qi deliberately recommend Yan Zhenqing, who was 75 years old at the time and the elder of the Four Dynasties, to Go to Li Xilie's military camp, read out the holy will, and know the great righteousness.
Yan Zhenqing resolutely went there, and was eventually imprisoned, awe-inspiring, and was hanged by traitors on the third day of August in the first year of The Xingyuan Dynasty, at the age of 76.
At that time, due to successive years of conquest, military expenditure was more than one million yuan per month, and the national treasury in the capital could not make ends meet.
In order to increase military expenditure, Zhao Zan, who was then a servant of the household department, had no choice but to do anything, and began to seek wealth from rich merchants, stipulating that all rich merchants who had gathered more than 10,000 yuan of money should be retained as capital, and all the remaining money should be used as military expenses, and the taxes on houses and houses were increased, and the taxes on strange taxes were added, so as to accumulate wealth from the people. The people complained so much that in October of the fourth year of Jianzhong, when Jingyuan Jiedu asked Yao Lingyan to lead his soldiers into Chang'an, he openly shouted the slogan of "do not seize the quality of the Ru merchants, and do not tax the Rujian to eliminate the strange" in order to win the hearts and minds of the people.
During the Jingyuan Mutiny, the mutinous soldiers supported Zhu Zhu as emperor, Tang Dezong was forced to flee to Fengtian, and Chang'an City was occupied by rebels for more than a month.
On the way to escape, an official named Cui Ning, because of the arrival, shed tears to the people around him, saying that the emperor was extraordinary, so the matter was all caused by Lu Qi's confusion.
This word soon reached Lu Qi's ears, so Lu Qi deliberately sent artificial rumors that Cui Ning was in collusion with the rebels.
Zhu Zhu used another counter-plot to deliberately issue an edict, appointing Liu Hun as the pseudo-imperial chancellor and Cui Ning as zhongshu ling, and then Lu Qi sent someone to find a person named Guan Kangzhan, who had originally worked under Cui Ning, and forged a letter from Cui Ning to zhu Zhu, so that his identity as a traitor who should be combined with the outside world was confirmed.
Poor Cui Ning, just because of a word, he caused the disaster of killing himself, and was eventually strangled alive by the eunuch at the age of 61.
Returning to the fact that Emperor Dezong was trapped in Fengtian, Zhu Zhu led his troops to besiege Fengtian, but fortunately the general Li Huaiguang defeated the rebels at Ludian, and Zhu Zhu was forced to withdraw to Chang'an.
Then, on the way to Fengtian, Li Huaiguang repeatedly talked to his subordinates about the government, saying that Lu Qi, the traitorous minister, if I saw the emperor, I would definitely ask the emperor to kill him:
The prime minister conspired to be obedient, the degree of support was heavy, Jing Zhaoyin was mean to the army, and the chaos in the world was all from this, I saw it, and please punish it.
These words soon reached Lu Qi's ears, and Lu Qi was greatly alarmed, so he advised Emperor Dezong that Li Huaiguang's coming to Fengtian to meet the emperor was too much of a delay, "It is better to let Huaiguang take advantage of the victory to enter the capital and break the bamboo, and not to lose it."
Emperor Dezong believed that Lu Qi's words were reasonable, so he ordered Li Huaiguang to march on the bridge and attack Chang'an on the right day.
Li Huaiguang
This Li Huaiguang saw that his family was desperately fighting for his life, and he broke the siege for the emperor, and as a result, he did not even see the emperor's face, let alone show his merits, and then Li Huaiguang gambled and did not attack Chang'an, so he was stationed in the Xianyang area and did not move.
Soon, another minister advised Emperor Dezong that Li Huaiguang would not pursue the poor Kou, and that he had heard that he had also prevented others from attacking Chang'an, which was obviously a rebellion.
Therefore, in order to win the hearts of the people, Emperor Dezong also gave Li Huaiguang the title of lieutenant and gave him an iron coupon to avoid death, which was supposed to show his trust, but as a result, he completely messed things up:
Mortal subjects rebel, but give iron coupons, and now give glory, it is the opposite!
Li Huaiguang, who was furious, did not take long to unite with Zhu Zhu, raise an army against Tang, and lead his troops to force Fengtian to pursue Emperor Dezong.
Dezong, who felt that things were not good, was forced to flee to Liang Prefecture for refuge.
This war was finally successfully quelled by the general Li Sheng, in the first year of Yu Xingyuan. After Chang'an City was recaptured, Zhu Zhu was beheaded by his subordinates Liang Tingfen and Han Min on his way to the west.
Li Huaiguang, who later fell out with Zhu Zhu, fled to the river alone with his army, and was later surrounded by the Tang army, fell into a desperate situation, and was finally beheaded by Niu Mingjun, the general of the Shuofang army.
This is a postscript.
Going back to the traitorous minister Lu Qi, since the Li Huaiguang incident, Tang Dezong, who was forced by the pressure of public opinion, was forced to demote him to Sima of Xinzhou.
Two years later, in the first year of zhenyuan, in the face of amnesty from the imperial court, he was transferred to ji prefecture shi.
Seeing the dawn of the dawn again, Lu Qi said to the people with infinite joy:
For re-entry by necessity.
The result was really right for him, and in the same year, Emperor Dezong was ready to let Lu Qi serve as the assassin of Rao Prefecture.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Gao, who was responsible for drafting the edict, stopped working and immediately joined forces with lu han and Liu Congyi, then prime ministers, to strongly persuade Emperor Dezong to retract the edict.
In order to express their hatred for Lu Qi and the common indignation of people and gods, it feels that they have used up all the adjectives that can express incomparably indignant and hateful feelings:
The generals of the three armed forces are willing to eat their flesh.
If you add the favor of the great adulterer, you will lose the heart of all the people.
Self-smell and then promotion, loyal and painful, Shishu cold heart.
Man's unscrupulousness, as far as this is concerned.
Dezong, who was once again under strong public pressure, had to change Lu Qi to Lizhou.
Soon after, Lu Qi died in Lizhou.
Interestingly, later, Emperor Dezong was known for his integrity and honesty, and Li Mian, a minister who was nearly seventy years old, asked:
Why don't the people talk about adultery and evil?
Then Li Mian, an old minister of Gao Deshao, said a sentence that made Dezong "silent for a long time":
Lu Qi's adultery and evil are known to everyone in the world, but His Majesty does not know, so this is also adultery and evil!
This sentence, for Dezong, is really like drinking with a stick, enlightening, and waking up the dreamer with a word.
Yes, the great traitor and the great evil person have always been loyal and sincere, a look that wants to go to the soup for you, and the appearance of not quitting makes you feel that he is bowing down for you all the time, and will be loyal to you until death, but how do you know, in his eyes, you are just a pawn, a ladder, a tool, and the world's first fool who can bring him great wealth.
Tang Dezong
From ancient times to the present, in this chaotic world, like Dezong, he was raped and flattered by evil and flattered villains, kept in the dark, and played with the rulers in his hands, and he was not the only one who was Dezong.
How nai, Dezong woke up, but those who were in high positions and lost their way did not know how to return, not as good as Dezong, Bibi Ranye.
Lu Qi has a son named Lu Yuanfu, not lu Tingbao, the playboy in "Hanging in the Garden", but a young man who was known for his high moral character and was famous in the world.
Later, he was a mid-soldier, an official to a soldier, and a good inheritor of the pure and fine family style of his grandfather and great-grandfather, and with a noble name, he was recorded in the annals of history, and when people "did not tire of their father's ugly behavior, people returned to beauty", as a generation of adulterous ministers, it was impressive.
As the saying goes, not a family, not a door, but this ugly-looking Lu Qi, but it is not the Lu family, entering the Lu family, and defiling the high-door reputation of Fanyang Lu's family.
Hurt!
