What kind of person was Yang Xiu in history? Brief introduction of Yang Xiu's life

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Peking Opera Cao Cao and Yang Xiu attributed Yang Xiu's death to "relying on talents to liberate the market and opposing Cao Cao several times". Mentioned that Yang Xiu committed six "bogeys"; The first time is to add "live" events to the "width" of the "door"; The second time was a "fragile" event; The third time was to expose Cao Cao's dream of killing; The fourth time was a secret meeting between Yang Xiu and Cao Pi and Chao Ge Chang Wu. The fifth time, Cao Cao wanted to try the talents of Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, and Yang Xiu taught Cao Zhi to "set up a door"; In the sixth time, Yang Xiu made The Romance of the Three Kingdoms for Cao Zhi. The Peking Opera Education Answer mentioned that Cao Cao killed Yang Xiu three times and performed it three times. I killed Kong for the first time on purpose, but I didn't kill him. The second time, Cao Cao was killed in his dream, discovered by Yang Xiu, and deliberately killed Yang Xiu; The third time was to patrol the camp in the snow. Cao Cao led Yang Xiu's horse into the stirrup and deliberately killed Yang Xiu instead of him. Finally, Yang Xiu was killed because of the "chicken ribs" incident.

These are the results of artistic creation, so what is the real Yang Xiu in history? Is Yang Xiu's death really fate? By consulting relevant historical materials, the author draws the following conclusions: 1. Yang Xiu is very talented in history, but he is by no means a man released by talent; 2. His death was the victim of Wei's political struggle; 3. Luo Guanzhong misled later readers.

Yang Xiu was born in 175 and died in 2 19. A writer at the end of Han Dynasty, a native of Huayin, Hongnong. Yang Xiu's literary achievements and status are extremely high, and his works are rich. However, due to his loss, few works have been handed down, which makes future generations know little about him.

Yang Jia was born in an official family, and was a big official in the Han Dynasty for several generations. Their ancestors, Yang and Han Gaozu, were all meritorious figures named Chiquanhou. Great-grandfather Yang Zhen, great-grandfather, ancestor Yang Ci and his father IV successively held the posts of,, and Qiu, just like Yuan in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He said, "From the earthquake to the tiger, the fourth generation of Tai Wei, Yuan is a famous talented and disciplined figure in Tokyo." "Tai Wei" was an important official in charge of military and political affairs in Han Dynasty. From Gaozu to his father, there are four Qiu altogether, and they are all very powerful! Then, the education and training of such a powerful official for future generations can not be limited to imparting knowledge, but will certainly impart many rules for being a man and being an official. Yang Xiu is very clever, and he was exposed from an early age, while his elders taught him by example. Obviously, it can't be said that he doesn't understand the rules of officialdom, the world is cold, and human feelings are not complicated.

The author noticed a passage from Cao Cao and Yang Xiuzhong:

"The word Dezu Yang Xiu, QiuBiao son also, low people. In Jian 'an Middle School, Lian Xiao was introduced. In addition to Lang, the prime minister appointed Cao as the main book at home and abroad. The militarists were in trouble at that time. They always know inside and out that everything is a means. Try to make good friends with Wang Wei.

The first sentence of this passage goes like this: Yang Xiu is the son of Yang Biao, who is from Taiwan Province. He is humble and knowledgeable. Please note that the word "Qian" is used in the evaluation of Yang Xiu here, which shows that Yang Xiu is still modest and prudent, which is in great contrast with the description of "relying on talents and letting them develop" in Yang Zhenchuan of the later Han Dynasty.

The second sentence says: During the Jian 'an period, Yang Xiu was recommended as a doctor because of his filial piety and incorruptibility. Prime Minister Cao appointed him as the main book of Cang Cao, in charge of the army. "Filial piety" is a kind of official system and a kind of "procuratorial system" in the Han Dynasty, which is somewhat similar to the electoral system in western countries. The difference is that western elections are local elections and local posts are held. In the Han Dynasty, officials were qualified through the election of "filial piety", and then official positions were allocated by the imperial court. This requires a qualified person to be famous with virt in a certain field.

From the second sentence, we can get two messages: First, Yang Xiu once enjoyed a high reputation in a certain area because of his filial piety and honesty. It also needs a little modern "show" and "hype" ability. At least it shows that Yang Xiu is a good man and everyone will recommend him; Second, Cao Cao admired Yang Xiu very much, otherwise he wouldn't have given him such an important thing as managing the army and food.

So, as the main author of Dianlue, how did Yang Xiu behave? The third sentence is the answer: it was an eventful autumn for the army and the country at that time. Yang Xiu is familiar with everything inside and outside his works, and everyone is satisfied with his works! This shows that Yang Xiu is not an old-school bookworm. He is very talented and flexible, so he is satisfied from top to bottom! This has nothing to do with the evaluation of "talents expand territory"! Therefore, the fourth sentence says: officials from Wang to Pi and below compete to make friends, and talents are scarce and compete with each other.

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms quoted Cao Cao as saying: "Having a famous son is what Mao can do." As can be seen from the above, Cao attaches great importance to talents, not to mention being jealous of his talents and his descendants!

There was one in AD.

Since Yang Xiu was highly valued by Cao Cao, why did Cao Cao kill Yang Xiu? Through the above analysis, we should be able to rule out the reason why Yang Xiu "relied on talents and ignored them, violating Cao Cao's taboo". Then why? It turned out that Yang Xiu was involved in the political whirlpool of "having children" by Cao Zhi, and it got deeper and deeper.

Cao Cao was a great statesman and writer in the Jian 'an period in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He has two sons who are particularly proud: Cao Pi and Cao Zhi; Father and son are also known as "Cao Cao San Jue" in Jian 'an literary world, leaving many well-known poems. Both Cao Pi and Cao Zhi entered the list of Cao Cao's successors. Cao Cao is also a very enlightened monarch, and he does not attach importance to the principle of "being long but not advancing". From the beginning, he let his two sons compete freely, and the Eight Immortals crossed the ocean to show their magical power.

Yang Xiu is famous in the literary world, and Cao Zhi is a brilliant literary genius. Perhaps mutual appreciation, Yang Xiu depends on Cao Zhi. The Biography of the Three Kingdoms and Chen Sizhi also mentioned that Yang Xiu helped Cao Zhi to make suggestions and write Shi Shuo Xin Yu. He said: "Farming only depends on the price difference. Ding Yi, Ding Nan and Yang Xiu are two wings. " The prince is suspicious, and some of them are princes. "Xia Houdun talented, get the help of rockett, Ding Nan and Yang Xiu. Cao Cao hesitated for a long time and tried to make Cao a prince several times. After a long investigation, Cao Cao found that Cao Zhi was "willful, not motivated and did not drink". If you are reckless, unrestrained and addicted to alcohol, how can you trust to hand over the country to Cao Zhi? But Cao Cao found that Cao Pi was "arrogant, pretentious and duplicitous". Xelloss knew his tactics and the way of national subjugation, so Cao felt that Xelloss should be able to support Cao Zhi after one hundred years. So Cao Cao decided to make Cao Pi a prince, which happened in the winter of the twenty-second year of Jian 'an. At this time, Cao Cao had sealed Wang Wei for one year and five months, and Wang Wei's time was in the summer and May of the twenty-first year of Jian 'an.

The argument of "having children" in history is cruel. Because Yang Xiu is on Cao Zhi's side, officially speaking, he is on the wrong side, so he is Cao Pi's sworn enemy. Now Cao Cao has made Cao Pi a prince. As a far-sighted politician, Cao Can only suppressed the leader of Cao Zhi Group. However, Cao Cao did not do it all at once. But wait until October of the twenty-fourth year of Jian' an. Cao Cao was seriously ill and knew he was going to die. "The prince is very talented and worried about the final change. Yuan's nephew Yuan Shu is also guilty. " , and finally killed.

After all, Cao Cao killed Yang Xiu to protect the inheritance of Cao Shi dynasty. Imagine that Cao Zhi is politically almost "mentally retarded". After Cao Cao's death, Yang Xiu and others assisted Cao Zhi to continue to compete with Cao Pi for the throne, and the outcome was unimaginable. In the future, Cao Cao's fortress will be breached from the inside, which Cao Cao has to guard against. More than three months later, in the spring of the twenty-fifth year of Jian 'an, Cao Cao died of illness!

Later generations have a poem saying:

The clever Yang Dezu was passed down from generation to generation.

Walking in the fence with dragons and snakes, their breasts are very beautiful.

When you start talking, you will be surprised and you will win the championship.

The cause of death was wrong. There is no need to withdraw troops.

The first sentence of this poem says that Yang Xiu is very clever. He was born in a bureaucratic family. The second and third sentences say that Yang Xiu writes like a god, like wisdom; The fourth sentence points out that Yang Xiu's death has nothing to do with whether to withdraw troops. He died because he was so talented! In fact, it is not that Cao Cao is jealous of Yang Xiu's talent, but that Yang Xiu's "great talent" hinders Cao Shichao's "great cause". He can only kill it!

As for why Luo Guanzhong misled readers, it is related to his thought of "respecting Liu and belittling Cao". It's just a prop he used to "belittle Cao"! Now it seems that Luo Guanzhong is not authentic, completely ignoring the damaged reputations of Yang Xiu and Cao Cao. Yang Xiu was a little unlucky, too. He became a victim because of the political struggle in his life; Behind him, he became the object of sacrifice because of the cultural struggle; Throughout his life, he was famous in the literary world, but the literary world behind him was unknown. Also bears the notoriety of /0 "release by talent". Yang Xiu case, not Dou E case!
