It is said that history is written by winners, and it is also said that history is a little girl who can be dressed up. However, Xiao Jie believes that although many historical truths are buried in secret corners, its baseline still exists objectively, and there will be no mistakes in these general directions.
A hero is a hero, and vice is vice, which will not be changed by external evaluation. Today, let's sort out three famous works of three villains in history. Although their personalities are not good, their literary talent is extraordinary. Let's save their face for their disgraceful lives.
First place: Yan Song
The History of the Ming Dynasty lists Yan Song as one of the six treacherous court officials in the Ming Dynasty, which is worthy of the name. Yan Song was born as a scholar, and then he was promoted continuously. Finally, he became a cabinet official and devoted himself to national politics for fifteen years. He not only eradicated dissidents, but also persecuted loyal ministers, corrupted the platform, and even reached the point where the country and the people were harmed. Even if we don't know this man, we can know his wickedness from many operas and literary works.
But then again, Yan Song is a man of literature and art, and his calligraphy attainments are profound, especially good at writing green ci. In addition, his level of poetry and calligraphy is not bad, and he is known as "beautiful and weak, and there is no lack of charm."
Sushenxi Pavilion, Yan Song
The scenery in Xianggao is bleak in the evening, and the pavilion is waiting for the west.
The white house is quiet, and Cangshan Road is fascinated by Wan Song.
the cold rush and poisonous fog moisten clothes, while sitting quietly and the rain is low.
I don't see this ape and crane couple, and I'm afraid I'll live in a deep stream.
Yan Song's poems are not crude works by old cadres at all, but fine works that have been carefully crafted. Passing through the Quanzhou Shenxi Pavilion, he wrote this amazing work. Between the lines, we can't see his "treacherous" side at all, but read the full "feelings of scholars".
It makes people think about the past, and it is as pure as reading a Tang poem, without any officialdom. As you can imagine, if Yan Song had not entered the official career, but buried himself in the mountains and rivers, he would have been a great writer with a famous poem. This is just one of them, and Yan Song's other works are equally wonderful.
Second place: Yuan Shikai
"Yuan Shikai" is a famous name. Although he has done something to promote the wheel of history, the overall evaluation of history is negative. Yi Huang criticized his "The Story of Yuan's Stealing the Country" and said this: "Stealing the country and hurting the people, losing power and disorderly laws, is the first culprit in China, and it is a special culprit in human beings. Its death is appropriate, and it is beneficial to be old and faint. The soldiers will change."
His words can be described as extremely sharp. If you think about his series of acts, such as breaking the reform, suppressing people with lofty ideals, restoring the monarchy and trampling on democracy, you can know why people hated him so much at that time.
Yuan Shikai is a strategist and belongs to the martial arts. His photos also look silly, not like a scholar. So he gives us the impression that he is a rough guy. But who would have thought that 15-year-old Yuan Shikai could write dazzling poems.
Yuan Shikai in Nostalgia
I went to Yuhuatai alone today, and the heroes of all ages paid for the robbery.
It is said that Sun Ce broke Liu's place, and it is said that Mei Guo stationed troops.
the river is rolling eastward, when will it open?
just wait until the feathers are plump and fly for nine days to save Hong.
This is a 15-year-old Yuan Shikai's emotional work when he boarded the Yuhuatai in Nanjing. He lived in the stormy last period of the Qing Dynasty, and the people around him were miserable. He was ambitious, and he told himself by heroes such as Sun Ce that when I was full-fledged, learned well, and returned with a heavy army, I must save the "great sorrow" of the world.
It's the same as Huang Chao's "Stay in Qiu Lai on September 8th, and I'll kill all the flowers after I bloom. Soaring incense array through Chang' an, the city is full of golden flowers "is really very similar, the tone can be described as great."
Third place: Wang Jingwei
Wang Jingwei's real name is Wang Zhaoming. Because of his pen name "Jingwei", he was called away like this. "Jingwei filling the sea" is a feat of hard work for everyone, which shows Wang Jingwei's initial heart. Helpless during the Anti-Japanese War, he took refuge in Japan and became a veritable villain.
However, Wang Jingwei's early experience was quite bumpy. When he was thirteen, his parents met each other one after another, so he had to live with his brother, but there were many inconveniences. Later, he joined the revolution, but because his activities at that time were severely hit, they didn't go smoothly. The youthful Wang Jingwei gave birth to an extreme idea: to assassinate Zai Feng, the regent of the Qing court.
The operation ended in failure, and Wang Jingwei was also taken to the heavenly prison by the Qing court, and was sentenced to death according to the law, but later he was sentenced to life imprisonment. He was ready to die, so he wrote this poem in prison.
Generosity Wang Jingwei
Generously sings about Yan Shi and calmly becomes a prisoner of Chu.
a knife makes a quick start, and it doesn't bear the young man's head.
Jing Ke's allusions are quoted in "Generous Song of Swallows", and Zhong Yi's allusions are quoted in "Being a Chu prisoner calmly". You can feel the generous, calm and heroic spirit after reading it. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a rare good poem. If his "drawing a knife into a quick success" becomes a reality, then the evaluation given to him by history will never be lower than that of Tan Sitong, who said, "I laugh at the sky from the horizontal knife, leaving my courage to stay in the Kunlun Mountains."
It's just that later Wang Jingwei went the wrong way and became a sinner in history, so no one wants to remember this song.
