Chapter 4 An elegy can be used as a weeping song, and a distant view can be used as an angelic return

I’ve been reading history these days, and Bo Yang’s version of Zizhi Tongjian is much easier to understand than the original “Sima Niu” (Dongpo language, hehe), and its historical value is not inferior to Sima Guang’s. The old man has immeasurable merits and virtues, and he is indeed a posterity benefit.When I saw the section of the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms, I couldn't help but sigh.There are countless historians who have lamented the chaos of the five, the loss of life and the insecurity of the country, so I won't bother with that. At that time, the world was similar to the three-legged tripartite confrontation in the Three Kingdoms period. The area around Guanzhong was the former Qin Dynasty of the Fu family of the Di family;This period of history is also considered an anomaly in Chinese history.Gathering stars, attracting talents, but the situation of great unification is delayed, and opportunities are often ruined by villains.At that time, there were countless figures from all sides who came out to span generations: the former Qin had Wang Meng who was regarded by Fu Jian as the reincarnation of Zhuge.Wang Meng's governance strategy is similar to that of Zhuge Liang when he governed Shu, and he is worthy of his name. He followed the tough and strict legalist road. Compared with Zhuge Liang, whose achievements were all in vain, he was much more successful.Under his leadership, the former Qin Dynasty conquered Murong Yan State and unified the entire north.In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there was a master of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Xie An, a famous scholar of a generation, who sometimes said "neither to be beautiful to future generations, nor to be able to make a bad smell forever", and at other times hugged a willow tree with tears and tears, a super complex character Huan Wen; On the Qianyan side, there are family leaders Murong Han, Murong Ke, and Murong Chui.

At that time, the struggle of all parties reached its climax in the famous Battle of Feishui, which ended in a way beyond everyone's expectations. This period of history is as exciting as the Three Kingdoms, but it is a pity that there is no master like Luo Guanzhong to write about it. But my topic is not only about this, I am about Qu Wan's heart that is beating slightly under the ruins of history, and about a former Yan prince who became a captive because of the destruction of the country and a child molester because of his beauty , and became Murong Chong, the emperor of Xiyan.He is inextricably linked with all the above-mentioned personnel and events.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether I sigh for him or not. History never pays attention to how pitiful future generations are, and it will not be changed by anyone.The so-called changing history is just a subjective view of people at that time.History is like a prophecy lurking on a tortoise shell. No one will know until it is broken. In fact, everything is already doomed.The things that should happen, the people who should appear, will appear at the right time and follow their respective trajectories.When the time went to 370 years, Qin Lord Fu Jian destroyed Qianyan and captured Emperor You Murong Wei, his sister Princess Qinghe, his younger brother Murong Chong, and all the Murong tribe.

A history of the sixteen kingdoms speaks only one truth: "Those who want chaos must first chaos themselves." If there is no chaos in the Western Jin Dynasty, there will be no chaos in China, and the Jin Dynasty will go south; if there is no chaos in the former Yan, there will be no Fu Jian. Kill Yan.Murong Chui, King of Wu of Xiyan, first beat Huan Wen, the king of the world, to the ground in the battle of Fangtou. He almost lost all the elite soldiers that Huan Wen relied on to start his career, and made it difficult for him to usurp the throne later. The battle of Feishui did not hurt One soldier and one soldier left Fu Jian after the war, and only brought dozens of people to restore the country. With their own military capabilities, they established Houyan and successfully restored the country.A strong man is so strong, if he hadn't been forced by his own family to go to Daqin, no matter how ambitious Fu Jian was, he would not have dared to act rashly.The fall of the Western Jin Dynasty is like the fall of the former Yan, and other countries are similar.

There are many songs in the Yuefu of the Han Dynasty, all of which are about the suffering of the people who were displaced and groaned during times of war and catastrophe. "Yan Ge Xing" has the words "I am so tired of seeing stones, it is better to return than to travel far away", and "Elegy Songs" has the words "Elegy songs can be used as weeping, and long-distance views can be used as angels. I miss my hometown and feel depressed. There is no one who wants to go home. There is no boat to cross the river. I can’t speak my thoughts, but the wheels turn in my gut.” This extremely sad song reminded me of Murong Chong for no reason.When he was escorted to the capital of Qin when the country was destroyed, he looked back at the dilapidated old city.The mood should be the same as that sung in "Elegy Songs".Or is it more desolate.

Qianyan is gone, and the family is gone.And he was only twelve or thirteen years old at that time.No matter how strong you are, there is a bottom line. In fact, in troubled times, the royal family is also sad.Under a certain system, the higher the status, the more complete the destruction.Their home and their country are gone. Such travelers are more embarrassed than ordinary people. The world is so big that they have nowhere to return. Fenghuang'er, his whereabouts are even more unacceptable than being declared dead. "Book of Jin" (Volume 114): Chujian's Mieyan, sister Chong is the princess of Qinghe, she is fourteen years old, she has a special color, she is firm and accepts her, and she is the most favored in the back court.In the twelfth year of the rush year, he also has the appearance of Longyang, and fortunately.Siblings are exclusively favored, and palace people are not allowed to enter.A folk song in Chang'an City began: "One female and one male, both fly into the Purple Palace."

The Murong family has handsome guys from generation to generation, with excellent genes, and Murong Chong is the best among them, and has been crowned the title of "the first person to overwhelm the country and the city".A man also has a heart for beauty, but if his appearance only brings him humiliation.Even if it is stunning, I can't be happy. He changed from a prince to a child prostitute overnight. Afterwards, Murong Chong dealt with Fu Jian cautiously. He ground his heavy hatred into a dagger and kept it on his flesh, only to let his enemy kill him one day.How do you want him to be willing to be a child molester?He is not Long Yang, Zi Xia, and even more different from Deng Tong and Dong Xian. He was born as a prince who is under one person and above tens of thousands.The country destroyed the captives, which undoubtedly added another shame of subjugation to his personal shame.Later generations said that Murong Chong was only twelve years old at the time, just a child. Of course, this official title is false, and he may not be sensible.However, looking at the history of the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms, we will find that there are many eleven or twelve-year-old princes in the Xianbei royal family who hold great power.Gao Yan, the king of Langya in the Northern Qi Dynasty, became a powerful official in the Northern Qi Dynasty at a very young age, exercising power on behalf of his father, and his sophistication in handling government affairs made all the princes and ministers afraid. At this time, he was only eleven or twelve years old. (Gao Yan was only fourteen years old when he "rebelled" and was killed, leaving behind four posthumous sons, all of whom were killed by his elder brother. Sigh, ancient people are so precocious!) Therefore, Murong Chong's official title of "Da Sima" may not be all decoration.

What's more, the Murong family's blood flowed from generation to generation is the blood of restlessness.Such a person with a heart higher than the sky, how could you want him to be willing to be a plaything?A little prince with a heart as strong as the sky and holding a lot of power, after the country was broken, he actually wanted to commit himself to serving others. The ups and downs of his life experience are enough to explain why he washed Chang'an bloody in the future and turned the fertile land in Qianliguan into a Shura field. Fu Jian is bisexual.There is not much to be surprised about, as did many emperors and many people, but this orientation is not so striking that it is worth remembering by historians.In fact, in history, besides the Murong Chong sisters and brothers who worked together as one monarch, there were also Li Yannian and Mrs. Li during the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and Dong Xian and Dong Zhaoyi during the Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty.There is no need to open your mouth. For thousands of years, there have been all kinds of people and all kinds of things have happened.There is nothing new under the sun.Among these three bisexual couples, my personal feeling is that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had a much deeper affection for Mrs. Li than his elder brother, Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty had a slightly deeper affection for Dong Xian than his sister, and Fu Jian had a deeper affection for Mrs. Li than his sister. Accurately speaking, his feelings should be no less than that of his sister.

Three years after Fu Jian accepted Murong Chong, he finally received Wang Meng's persuasion.Let Murong rush out of the palace.Two years later, he served as the prefect of Pingyang (now Linfen, Shanxi).For Fu Jian, the records in various historical books are quite positive. Judging from his actions, he is indeed worthy of the overlord Mingjun of a generation.Even the Han people may not have his kindness, but I always feel that Fu Jian is too idealistic, he was harmed by the ideal of "world harmony", and he was too tolerant of former Yan and Eastern Jin's surrenders, sowing trouble.In particular, the defeat in the Battle of Feishui led to the disintegration of the Hehe Former Qin Dynasty.Fu Jian fled and was strangled to death in Xinping Temple by Yao Chang.Otherwise, the unification era of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty is very likely to come earlier in the era of Emperor Fu Jian.

The rise of Murong Chong, the sad prince, came just after Fu Jian's defeat in Feishui. He, who had once turned into a joy under Fu Jian, gathered the old Xianbei tribe, took advantage of the chaos, stepped into the pass, and brandished his sword to avenge his shame.Fu Jian, he would not have thought of it.Twelve years later, this boy with an alluring appearance will come to the city without armor and appear in front of the former Qin army and people as a victor.In his memory, Murong Chong was always just that little boy prostitute with snow skin and black hair, soft body and stubborn eyes, taciturn.He had been with her for three years, but he had never gazed at him as an equal in a sober state... He never bowed his head, so he couldn't see the hatred and pain in Murong's eyes.

When Murong Chong's soldiers approached the city, Fu Jian sent someone to give him a brocade robe, hoping that he would remember the old love in bed.However, the arrogant emperor, as a teaser, how could he understand the mood of playthings.Fu Jian naively thought that there was love between the two, while Murong Chong only had hatred.He wished to use all his blood to wash away this shame. If the memory could be deleted at will, he would definitely clear those three years completely, leaving nothing behind.Unfortunately not!He has been nailed to the pillar of shame by Fu Jian.Pity him, not even happy with revenge. Both men and women of the Murong family are peerless in appearance, but they have always been cunning and tyrannical, just like Asura in Tianlongbabu.The city was running out of food, and Fu Jian was heartbroken by the Murong family, whom he once favored and trusted. In a rage, he ordered all the Xianbei people in the city to be executed.The Xianbei besieged Chang'an frantically, and Murong Chong even vented his revenge on innocent people.He allowed his subordinates to burn, kill and loot, razed villages and towns to the ground, cut off the roads in Guanzhong, and left it barren and smokeless. After several elder brothers died one after another, Murong Chong succeeded to the throne in Afang City and became the emperor of Xiyan.It is full of sycamore trees and green bamboos.Legend has it that when the phoenix sees the phoenix tree, it often falls down to rest and fills its stomach with bamboo food.Now the green shadow of A Fang really has Feng Laiyi.Murong Chong has a very high spirit. Since he was a child, his father loved him very much, and he called him Fenghuang'er, and he is indeed a phoenix.If the restorative maniac Murong Bo and his son in the novel were to return to the country and become emperors, they might be very excited and feel that they have lived up to this life.But Murong Chong will not be happy.He regained his country, but he could not regain his own withered mind.Later, when he charged into battle on the battlefield, he never wore armor. Although he was chic in plain robes, it also allowed people thousands of years later to see the thirst for death that could not be concealed by the fire of revenge in his heart.The song that revealed his life's destiny was sung like this: "Feng Huang Feng Huang Zhi A Fang, Feng Huang Feng Huang, why don't you fly high and return to your hometown? There is no reason to die here?" It seems to hear Murong's spirit in heaven singing a sad song in the sky: Fenghuanger, Fenghuanger.Stone sees how tired it is, it is better to return than to travel far! Murong Chong is a tired and lonely phoenix, he has no intention of being emperor, and he has no hometown to return.I think, in the end, even the national enmity was not the reason why he was obsessed with it, because too many people in the Murong clan rushed to restore the country.He was just obsessed with the hurts he had suffered, determined to wash away his lifelong shame, stood in front of Fu Jian, and faced him with the stern attitude of a man.He screamed like a very hungry vulture entrenched in Fu Jian's airspace, like a grieving ghost in a city of undeserved death, watching him flee in haste with cold eyes. He is different from those who conquer the world, others want to win the world, but he only needs to beat Fu Jian.Perhaps he had ambitions, but in the end ambitions were defeated by shame.I can fully understand his later self-abandonment. After his crazy killing and revenge ended, his mind was empty and his eyes were as pale as day.He doesn't care about death anymore, what he wants to do and what he wants to do is over. I am a hater.Hating people is too tiring.Hatred burns and hurts people, and it needs to be treated with all your heart and soul for a long time, and the relationship is not equal. If you put yourself on the fire and scald others with the heat, winning or losing is suffering.When a person's hatred for a person is so great that he completely drowns himself, it is not sad.You have lost the meaning of hating him, what you hate is only yourself at that time.So some people say, if revenge is too troublesome, then forget it.Honesty is the word of a wise man. So after Fu Jian's death, he was also annihilated.He can't escape him throughout his life, and will always be the shadow of Fu Jian.In the end, this man was more tragic than tyrannical. The smoke is everywhere.In the blink of an eye, the emperor's younger brother became a pitiful child molester, and twelve years later he became a bloody and murderous iron-blooded emperor.The twists and turns of fate rubbed him into it.But why?When the beacon fire was extinguished and the truth came out, I saw that the little prince who was as beautiful as the moonlight and ignorant of the world remained in the shadow of the moonlight and water.His life is as soft and green as moss on the bottom of the water.
