Chapter 5 4. Mystery in the words

The same scene is set, but the two show different attitudes.If there is one thing in common, what they say is from the heart.The words come from the heart, without the slightest hypocrisy and cover-up.In addition, none of them wanted to be emperor at that time.Let's talk about Liu Bang first. As a small official in Surabaya, Liu Bang has long been a social idiot, a master who drinks on credit and doesn't worry about everything, "doesn't care about the family's production and work".He doesn't have much social and life pressure, and he doesn't have much ambition.

At that time, some beautiful legends such as his mother Liu Yu's "dream and god encounter", Wu Ling and Wang Yu's two hotel owners "seeing that there are often dragons on it", and later Liu Bang beheaded the white snake, Lu Zhi followed the cloud to find Liu Bang and other beautiful legends, just In order to increase his mystery and make him feel better about himself, it is not known whether those legends were smoke bombs that Liu Bang instructed others to deliberately release after he became emperor.In short, at that time, he would never have thought of becoming an emperor in the future. Even if he wanted to, it would be the same as those who want to become Buffett who are learning stocks today.

Liu Bang is happy to be at ease, and maybe he also wants to gain more power and become a bigger magistrate. He is satisfied with being flattered every day, drinking wine, eating meat, and having girls. To him, these are considered extravagant.The matter of the emperor is too far away from him, and the personnel changes are changing rapidly, so it would be good to keep the pavilion chief of Surabaya. Xiang Yu didn't expect to be emperor at that time, or become the overlord of Western Chu who later commanded the world.That was a matter of course with the development of the situation.Xiang Yu's words of "replacing him if he can be replaced" were actually out of momentary anger, and the focus of his speech was on "acquiring", but he did not expect to "replace", nor did he want to get rid of Qin Shihuang and take his seat by himself. He just didn't want Qin Shihuang to be happy in that seat, he looked at it with long breath.

Although it is a simple sentence, like "how to see" and "how to do", the difference between one word and the difference is thousands of miles away.What Xiang Yu and Liu Bang said at that time should be a complete expression of their inner complex.Looking at the essence through the phenomenon, we can also see the difference between them. First, the purpose of the two is different. What Xiang Yu wants is the result, what Liu Bang makes is the plan.In other words, Xiang Yu wants to win the world, and Liu Bang wants to sit in the world. Xiang Yu's replacement emphasizes a means and a process of achieving the goal.This destined him to conquer the world with iron and blood, and also destined him to be willing to take risks when doing things.In his view, force can solve all problems.So when Liu Bang showed weakness to him, he would not doubt Liu Bang's motives, because he felt that he was strong enough and had enough deterrent power.

Liu Bang's envy is a goal in life, a very peaceful yearning.This kind of peace is destined for him to fight steadily and step by step, and will not rush forward easily.This kind of step-by-step will turn into wit, and he can overcome toughness with softness when encountering problems; it will also make him clear-headed, avoid the sharp edge in everything, and make temporary compromises.Liu Bang entered the pass first. According to the agreement of King Xiong Xin of Chu, he should be the king for granted. However, facing Xiang Yu's domineering, he finally chose to compromise, because he knew that he was not Xiang Yu's opponent.

Second, Liu Bang is more mature than Xiang Yu. In dealing with things, Liu Bang must be more mature and sophisticated than Xiang Yu.Xiang Yu went straight, said what he wanted, and did what he wanted.From Xiang Yu's indignant and reckless speech, it has already proved his immaturity.Liu Bang will bury the desire in his heart, and when the time is right, he will take it out and iron it out.Things are simple to say, but there are twists and turns, tolerance, and compromise inside, and it will not be a straight line like Xiang Yu. Third, Xiang Yu is more stressed than Liu Bang. Leaving aside the later development of the two of them, Liu Bang's words are more realistic in terms of these two sentences. There is no burden in the words. Yearning for a moment, imagine yourself driving in a luxury car instead of Qin Shihuang.Xiang Yu is not the case, he is very scheming, and those words are taken from the bottom of his heart, and every time he thinks about it in the future, he will feel stuck in his throat.
