At the end of the first season of "Celebrating More Than Years", Shen Sheng was tied to a horse. In order to avenge his personal guard and adoptive father Xiao En, Uesugi Tiger mounted his horse and raised his halberd. He sealed his throat with a heavy knife and fell under the horse. Since then, the heavy life of the powerful minister of the Northern Qi Dynasty came to an end.
At first I saw Shen Shen as insidious, cunning and ruthless, but in the end I went to hell but found him to be generous and fearless. How should I evaluate Shen Shen's life?
Compared with his majesty and power when he was alive, the heavy death was indeed a bit desolate. He was killed in the street, and his body fell into the street without anyone taking it back.
But if you think about it carefully, he can actually be regarded as a tragic hero. Although his life is not long, it can be said that he seeks benevolence and gets benevolence, and he dies well.

In a complex world, the best state for a person is to have gains and losses and perseverance.
I still remember that before Fan Xian left Beiqi, he went to meet Zhuang Mohan, a great figure in the literary world. Zhuang Mohan marveled at Fan Xian's talent and said to him: "People who can write such poems should not be filthy in the world."
Fan Xian was quite moved and remained silent for a while before saying, Mr. Promise not to be that kind of person.
It is said that in life, nine times out of ten things will be unsatisfactory. In fact, the most direct manifestation is that you are unable to be yourself smoothly.
Fan Xian said that he just wants to have a little money to do what he wants to do.
But in the chaotic world, people often do things they cannot help but do. That's why during the days when I was living in seclusion with Duoduo in the mountains, I mentioned that I was always too tired, because I had too many burdens, too many preparations, too many things to deal with, and too many secrets in my heart.
When it comes to what kind of person Fan Xian is, I am afraid that even he himself cannot answer.
And there were so many such people at that time. It was not easy for the Empress and Doudou to disguise themselves as men and deal with various forces at a time when the country was experiencing internal and external troubles. Si Lili has a special status, his fate is like duckweed, and there are more things he can't control.

But the weight is different. Although he is ruthless, arrogant and rude, this is his original character; in his heart, he has always adhered to morality, and he is not ashamed of his country in public and his family in private.
As an important minister of a large country, Sheng Sheng inevitably likes to show off and be dignified, but his abilities are indeed worthy of his position. It can be seen that he is talented and strategic in handling many things.
The most rare thing is that he always puts the country first in his heart. Whether he was killing Sean or overpowering Uesugi Tiger, he always acted in the interests of the country, hoping to stabilize the country's situation and eliminate the hidden danger of Uesugi Tiger holding a large number of troops and possibly treason.
He also showed a politician's keen insight and far-reaching strategy in his unwillingness to trade with Qingguo easily and in protecting the name of the smuggler.
Don’t be greedy for immediate vested interests, but consider the long-term stability of the country as the starting point.
In these matters, he showed a fearless spirit of sacrifice. He knew that if he continued to disobey the Queen Mother, he would inevitably lose power and seize power, but he did not hesitate and spoke out.
This is not only a manifestation of the character of "rather than bending", but also a manifestation of the loyal and patriotic spirit.
Even in the end, he would rather be accused of "treason" than intercept and kill the mission to eliminate major future troubles for the country.
In fact, when he made this decision, he already knew that it was a dead end, but he went magnanimously because he did what he thought was right.

But he was indeed ruthless. The nanny beside the Queen Mother was secretly killed by him because she always criticized his behavior; Sean's legs were also killed by him. He was beaten and disabled; in order to obtain the list of the spy network, Yan Bingyun was also tortured. But it is said that in order to achieve the goal, the means justify the means.
But such a person takes great care of his only sister; even if he throws himself to die, he still arranges a way for her to survive.
A heavy life should have many enemies, but there should be very few private enemies who have personal grudges against him. Most of them are public enemies due to different sides and different political stances.
In his heavy life, he showed insufficient respect to his superiors and never bowed his head; he was arrogant, unreasonable, ruthless and suspicious of his subordinates; he never knew how to adapt to things. But we also live a real life, with less weighing the pros and cons and less painstaking efforts, relying on hard-core strength and full of patriotic enthusiasm.
It can be regarded as an open, happy and carefree life.

Zhuang Mohan once said: "I have written countless books in my life, but the most proud thing is this period of my life." After his death, he also asked Duoduo to give Fan Duoduo Gossip says: "I live a very happy life. I don't wrong myself or deceive myself. I hope you do the same."
It can be seen that a person's life is ultimately a process of gains, losses and persistence. And true happiness is to be able to persist in being yourself after gains and losses.
This is exactly what happened. He is dedicated to serving the country, and is not in a high official position or a position of power, so he never disdains flattery and does not see the wind in his sails.
In the end, he was able to die for his country and walked openly.
It is a kind of freedom and happiness for a person to have a clear goal in his life, work hard in one direction, be focused on nothing, and not look forward or backward.
So when Shen Shen was about to die, Uesugihu mentioned the reason for killing him. He was fearless and fearless and just said "I know".
It can be seen that he made a choice and anticipated the outcome, but he has no regrets for such a life.
