Character introduction: Idealists who are out of reality are lifeless. ——Romain Roland
Qing dynasty officer Pang Qingyun, first served in the Qing court, during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom turmoil, has been "throwing his head and shed blood" for the Qing court. Although full of ideals and lofty ambitions, he was mercilessly betrayed on the battlefield by He Kui, who was an official of the same court, and he also saw the cruel and cold-blooded face of Qing soldiers, but no matter how frustrated he was, he hoped to be able to rely on himself. Power to end the war. The cruel reality of
hit him many times, but as long as he is still alive, he cannot be defeated. Undoubtedly, Pang Qingyun is a typical idealist. He is good at strategic thinking and will not be an official in battle (betrayed by He Kui on the battlefield); he is easy to idealize other people or things and is not practical enough (in an attempt to rely on himself). Power to end the Taiping Rebellion).
Therefore, at the beginning of joining the army, Pang Qingyun thought he was walking on a Yangguan Avenue, but in fact it was a single-plank bridge. When
entered the Qing court system, he had to obey the rules of the system. This is one of the basic norms of society and one of the duties of a person. But there are two kinds of people who don't understand this simple truth. One is idealists who ignore reality, and the other is speculators. Pang Qingyun is undoubtedly the former.
What Pang Qingyun pursues is that the people of the Li people will not be bullied by the ruler, and want to transform this "cannibalistic" world, as well as the "ignorance and numbness" of everyone.
Pang Qingyun led soldiers to conquer the Quartet
As "The Twelve Kingdoms" said: Man is not anyone's slave, and he is not born to be a slave. Don't give in even if you are oppressed, don't get discouraged even if you encounter disaster. When encountering injustice, he can correct without fear, and do not succumb to beasts. I hope that the people of Qing will become such free and uninhibited people, and become the unique monarchs who rule "self" this territory. For this reason, I hope everyone starts with the thing of raising their head resolutely.
However, Pang Qingyun has always worked hard on his own. He has never considered the thoughts of the ruler of this land, "the Qing court".
In fact, during the turbulent times of the Tianping and Heavenly Kingdom, the Qing Dynasty was shaken by storms, like a giant tree without roots, which could fall at any time. The rulers of the Qing court only wanted to maintain their own rule, and did not care about the life and death of the people at the bottom, and even controlled and squeezed the people. Pang Qingyun and the Qing court are in harmony from beginning to end, but the ideal Pang Qingyun has always thought that as long as he is an official of the Qing court, he and the Qing court are in the same boat.
As long as it is to suppress the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, then Pang Qingyun and the Qing court are indeed "in the same boat", but this is not at all the same aspirations, at most, the goal is the same; after the war, Pang Qingyun will exempt the poor from taxes and let the poor experience people. People are equal, so how can the Qing court live without oppressing the people? In the eyes of the Qing court, Pang Qingyun was a weapon in hand. He had the final say in fighting the weapons of the world, and he wanted to intervene in the weapons of the world. How does the system work? How satisfied is the ruler (the Qing court)?
Suppression of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom
The essence of the feudal dynasty is that the world is privately owned, as long as everything within the dynasty’s sphere of influence, regardless of people and things belong to the private property of the family, how to deal with it depends only on the preferences of the ruler. The so-called love for the people like a son is nothing more than a magnificent image created by the ruler for himself and a means to reassure the people of Li people from rebellion. Rulers of the Feudal DynastyThere is only one ultimate goal for what you do-your own wealth and glory.
But in this environment, even a saint can put forward a very advanced idea, but it is impossible to realize it.
As an idealist among the people at the bottom, Pang Qingyun has the idea of a saint, but his method of achieving his great cause is a dead end. Cooperating with the ruler (the Qing court), this kind of quest for skin with tigers, let alone ordinary circumstances, is difficult to achieve even under ordinary circumstances. However, Pang Qingyun has this kind of bear-hearted leopard courage to try.
Pang Qingyun and Zhao Erhu and Jiang Wuyang accepted the certificate, but the problem is that Pang Qingyun never thought of applying this "voting certificate" to more people and forge more of his cronies.
Pang Qingyun, Zhao Erhu and Jiang Wuyang took the name
to let the poor stand up and not be bullied. It was undoubtedly a great cause in that era, but the realization of this cause can never be achieved by only one or two people.
Mr. Mao once said: A single spark can start a prairie fire.
Only because of the limitations of the times and the limitations of idealism, Pang Qingyun only knows how to persist in working for the welfare of the people. He has never felt like a spark, and he has never thought of reforming the old and the new.
Pang Qingyun is an idealist, but he is facing a real world that is cruel to "cannibalism". He wants to protect the lower classes from being bullied, but ignores the minds of the rulers who cooperate with him. Faced with such a world, such a person will eventually be swallowed by this world.
When the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was suppressed, Pang Qingyun wanted to fight Suzhou and Nanjing. Although this violated the military order of the three adults in the army, fortunately, he won. It is a good thing to defeat the enemy and win, and in the eyes of the queen dowager, they still wish you a few more victories, as long as they can maintain their interests is credit.
Therefore, Pang Qingyun was able to see the Empress Dowager Cixi. In addition to being named the Governor of Liangjiang, the attitude of the Empress Dowager Cixi towards him is even more capital:
"The monarch and ministers will be accompanied for a long time." If
is a veteran, hearing the words of the Queen Mother, he will definitely understand this It is to win over and trust oneself. The Master Chen, who took Pang Qingyun to the audience, obviously understood, and he asked Pang Qingyun to thank you for completing this stylized interview. It's just that Pang Qingyun is an idealist, knows how to fight and not an official (do not understand politics). He has been in this system for so many years, and the only thing he hasn't learned is to follow the rules.
he braved the ruler's unwillingness to say: "The minister Pang Qingyun started playing the queen mother and exempted the Jiangsu jurisdiction from taxes for three years, and cultivated the people." This is the lightest; when we look into it, this is infidelity to the Qing court! Pang Qingyun had military merits and status, but he still did not understand that in the eyes of the queen mother, he was working for the Qing court. When can do things, the queen dowager will reward you with meat, not because you and the queen dowager are a family. Pang Qingyun is not asking, but committing the following to challenge the authority of the ruler!
Therefore, after a while, Cixi ordered the "quasi-play".
At this moment, the trust of "the monarch and his ministers will be accompanied for a long time" disappeared without a trace, and only the word "dread" was added. If a courtier is trusted and capable, the master is happy; if a courtier is not trusted, the master is afraid if he is capable.
Pang Qingyun didn't grasp the opportunity to see him this time, but he was a capable man in suppressing the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, so he couldn't say a word wrong and wouldn't give him a chance at all. Z3z
Master Chen said: "A huge man has no faction and no affiliation, so he can be promoted."
At the beginning, it was Master Chen who borrowed troops from Pang Qingyun, and Pang Qingyun fought a turnaround victory. For many years, it was also Master Chen who had been supporting Pang Qingyun, and now it was also Master Chen who brought Pang Qingyun into the palace for an audience. Now that Pang Qingyun offended the Queen Mother's Ni Lin, Lord Chen naturally turned his face and refused to recognize him.
and Master Di, who has never been able to help him, wants to pull Pang Qingyun: "Master Jiang is sick in the south, He Kui is about to move, can you live it?"
He Kui is Pang Qingyun’s old enemy, once you know Pang QingyunWhen Chaotang lost his momentum, Kizuna was naturally not a problem. Therefore, Master Di wanted Pang Qingyun to state whether to follow him.
It is a pity that Pang Qingyun is an idealist, he only decides things based on personal likes and dislikes or values. Faced with Lord Di’s helping hand, Pang Qingyun refused to accept the unspoken rule in officialdom, and responded: "Official affairs are on the body, go ahead."
After Pang Qingyun did not understand the unspoken rule of officialdom
, there was The imperial court induced Pang Qingyun to get rid of his right-hand man and Zhao Erhu, who also accepted the nomination certificate. However, even at this time, Pang Qingyun had not realized that he and the imperial court had drifted away. Drop his own armed forces. As everyone knows, what the court, representing the cruel reality, wants to get rid of is himself who has violated political taboos.
is undoubtedly a unique costume war movie, which is different from the magnificence and elegance pursued by directors such as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige. In the first half of the movie, when Pang Qingyun spent his life fighting on the battlefield, the overall tone was completely dark and cold; in the second half of the movie, the bright colors began to emerge after the three protagonists were promoted to the south and made a fortune.
Pang Qingyun is the most complicated person in "Tooting Names"-he not only wants to keep pace in officialdom, but also does not forget to let the people live a life free from bullying. For his own ideals and great cause, he did a lot of wrong things, occupying his brother's wife, even killing his brother, and killing the prisoner. But he was also upholding military discipline, cutting off adulterers, pretending to be the ruler, and exempting Jiangnan from taxes for three years. The whole story of
"To Name Zhuang" is from the perspective of the youngest third, Jiang Wuyang. At that time, Jiang Wuyang, who assassinated Pang Qingyun, was being overthrown. It is difficult for me to comment on Pang Qingyun's right and wrong, but I know that the court and this reality have never been "good".
Pang Qingyun's rough life was like walking on thin ice, struggling to walk, but unfortunately he would never reach the ideal opposite shore.
Pang Qingyun said: "I have been walking on thin ice in my life, do you think I can go to the other side?" has always felt that idealists are sad and not hateful, and what hates is the cruel real world. In fact, from ancient times to the present, countless people with lofty ideals have never lacked ideals, they lacked only realistic cooperation.
people have two worlds: one is the ideal world, the other is the real world. Sometimes, in order to better realize the ideal, one must first recognize reality and bid farewell to naivety. To realize your ideals always requires opportunities, and only when you are alive can you have opportunities.
