When we were young, we looked at the world, there were only black and white, and people were only divided into good people or bad people. When we grew up, we found that in addition to black and white, there were grays, and good people would also do bad things, and bad people were not bad in their entirety.
Re-watching " Xue Pinggui and Wang Baochuan " these days, I found that in the play, the so-called good people will also do things for their own selfishness.
Wang Baochuan
Wang Baochuan married Xue Pinggui , because Xue Pinggui is both civil and military, upright and kind, and is a talented person. Wang Baochuan fell in love with him at first sight.
But if these factors are aside, Wang Baochuan chose Xue Pinggui because Xue Pinggui looks extraordinary and will never be a thing in the pool in the future.
To put it bluntly, Wang Baochuan values Xue Pinggui's potential and believes that Xue Pinggui will surely make a fortune in the future, allowing her to wear her head and recognize her face in front of the world.
Wang Baochuan dreamed of Xue Pinggui in a temple meditation room before meeting Xue Pinggui, dreaming of Xue Pinggui, dreaming of him wearing a dragon robe and transforming into a dragon.
So when I saw Xue Pinggui for the first time, Wang Baochuan blurted out that it was you.
Later When Wang Yun opposed Wang Baochuan's marriage to Xue Pinggui, Wang Baochuan also said in front of his father that Xue Pinggui is definitely the dragon among the people and will definitely make a name for himself in the future.
Although Wang Baochuan chose Xue Pinggui to value Xue Pinggui's potential, just like the company's investment projects, it focuses on the benefits that the projects can bring in the future.
But it is undeniable that Wang Baochuan must have affection for Xue Pinggui, otherwise he would not have been hard at the cold kiln and dug wild vegetables for eighteen years.
In fact, feelings cannot be completely separated from reality, and will be more or less impurities of reality, but the existence of love cannot be rejected because of this.
Xue Hao
Xue Hao is Xue Pinggui's adoptive father. He usually loves the world and is chivalrous and righteous. He seems to be a very loving person, but in fact Xue Hao also has his own selfish intentions.
Take the adoption of Xue Pinggui as an example. It was because he was entrusted by Eunuch Ye and he couldn't bear to let Eunuch Ye leave with regret.
In fact, Xue Hao also had his own plans to adopt Xue Pinggui, and he was cultivating a son-in-law for himself.
When Xue Hao died, he did not ask Xue Pinggui if he was interested in Xue Qi, but directly helped Xue Qi and Xue Pinggui get engaged.
Moreover, it is very likely that Xue Pinggui has told Xue Qi that he is not Xue Qi's biological brother, so that Xue Hao has long told Xue Qi that the purpose is to let Xue Qi cultivate his relationship with Xue Pinggui as soon as possible.
Otherwise, how could Xue Qi fall in love with Xue Pinggui so early? When the two of them were practicing martial arts in the forest, Xue Qi deliberately hinted that Xue Pinggui must listen to Xue Hao's words, because Xue Hao had already helped her engage in a engagement with Xue Pinggui.
Xue Hao raised Xue Pinggui, of course, because of kindness, but in addition to kindness, he inevitably has his own selfishness.
people all have their own selfish intentions, after all, it is difficult for us to reach the realm of a saint.
Beggar Gang brothers
Ge Da Ge Qing and Zhang Wei, the group of Beggar Gang brothers, helped Xue Pinggui wholeheartedly.
Is it just out of brotherhood?
Ge Da actually admitted to Xue Pinggui very frankly that the reason why he helped Xue Pinggui was that he had his own selfish intentions.
Because Ge early in the morning, he realized that Xue Pinggui was definitely not a person who had been under the ranks of people for a long time, and Xue Pinggui was both civil and military, and it was just around the corner to take the exam to become a high-ranking official. Once Xue Pinggui became successful, the brothers of the Beggars' Sect could naturally benefit from it.
Even if Xue Pinggui was not good, Wang Baochuan, the three daughters of the prime minister, was infatuated with Xue Pinggui. When Xue Pinggui got married with Wang Baochuan, he would become the third aunt of the prime minister’s mansion.
When Xue Pinggui was about to pick up Wang Baochuan's hydrangea, he told Ge Da Ge Qing and Zhang Wei about his thoughts. When he married Wang Baochuan in the future, he would live the ordinary life of men farming and women weaving with Wang Baochuan.
But after hearing Xue Pinggui's words, Zhang Wei complained that his previous efforts to Xue Pinggui were wasted.
Why did Zhang Wei say that? Because they originally thought that after Xue Pinggui and Wang Baochuan got married, they would marry into the prime minister's house and live a wealthy life, and could also help beggar brothers, but Xue Pinggui only wanted to be an ordinary person with Wang Baochuan.
Although Ge Da Ge Qing and Zhang Wei's sincerity with Xue Pinggui was mixed with the measure of interests, it was not easy for them to help Xue Pinggui like that.
Xiaolian
Xiaolian is Wang Baochuan's personal maid. In order to match Wang Baochuan and Xue Pinggui, she worked hard, and for this, she also suffered a lot of hardships.
And Wang Baochuan also treats Xiaolian as his own sister. Every time his family accuses Xiaolian, Wang Baochuan will talk to Xiaolian.
Xiaolian is grateful to Wang Baochuan for his kindness to him and looks very loyal to Wang Baochuan in normal times.
But if you look closely at the plot details, you will find that Xiaolian's loyalty to Wang Baochuan also contains her own selfishness.
Wang Baochuan and his father were ready to go to Hanyao to get married with Xue Pinggui. Xiaolian was also preparing to follow Wang Baochuan, but Prime Minister Wang stopped Xiaolian and claimed that if Xiaolian left with Wang Baochuan, she would beat her to death.
Prime Minister Wang said this just to use Xiaolian to hit Wang Baochuan. The purpose is to hope that Wang Baochuan can stay. It is not really a matter of killing Xiaolian. But after hearing what Prime Minister Wang said, Xiaolian really no longer went to the Han Kiln with Wang Baochuan.
Later, Xiaolian went to Han Kiln to attend the wedding of Wang Baochuan and Xue Pinggui. As Wang Baochuan's maid, his master was suffering. It was impossible for him to not express his loyalty at all. If he didn't say anything, how could he explain to the old lady after he went back.
So Xiaolian asked Wang Baochuan again to stay and take care of Wang Baochuan. Xiaolian knew that Wang Baochuan would not agree with his nature. Sure enough, Wang Baochuan asked Xiaolian to take care of the old lady for her.
The old lady has so many maids around her, and there are not many Xiaolians, but Xiaolians are not many. However, Wang Baochuan is a prime minister and daughter. Before, she has never touched her heart. Now she has to do many things by herself. Xiaolian should stay to help Wang Baochuan.
But Xiaolian heard Wang Baochuan's refusal and went back. After returning, she heard that the old lady wanted to build a house for Wang Baochuan, Xiaolian immediately looked lit up and begged the old lady to ask her to take care of Wang Baochuan.
Xiaolian's reaction shows that she feels a little disgusted with Wang Baochuan's living environment after getting married and is unwilling to live with Wang Baochuan to endure hardships.
Xiaolian is loyal to Wang Baochuan, but Xiaolian is also realistic.
However, this reality is understandable. As a maid, she has seen more difficulties in the lower class than Wang Baochuan. She has finally lived a little better now, so of course she doesn't want to suffer again.
Xue Pinggui
Wang Baochuan called Xue Pinggui a gentleman. Part of the reason she married Xue Pinggui was because Xue Pinggui was of noble character, much better than the playboys she had seen before.
But is Xue Pinggui really flawless?
In fact, Xue Pinggui also has his own gray side.
When Xue Hao died, Xue Pinggui asked Xue Pinggui to help her take care of Xue Qi for the rest of her life. However, when Xue Qi was in Wei Bao's mansion, Xue Pinggui only asked the servants at the door. The servants said that Xue Qi was not in the mansion, so Xue Pinggui did not have a good life to go to the mansion to check whether the servants said it was true.
Later, Ge Qing was detained in the mansion by Wei Bao, but Xue Pinggui sneaked into the mansion to save Ge Qing at night.
Xue Pinggui must really care about Xue Qi. Could it be that he could sneak into the mansion and investigate Xue Qi’s whereabouts like saving Ge Qing?
even more. After Xue Pinggui arrived in Daliang, he lived a life of luxury with Dai Zhan and completely ignored Xue Qi.
Xue Pinggui not only let down his adoptive father's death instructions, but also let down Wang Baochuan's deep affection.
Wang Baochuan suffered and worked hard in the Han Kiln for eighteen years. As a result, when Xue Pinggui came back, he tested Wang Baochuan's loyalty towards him and asked her why she didn't die with her.
These behaviors of Xue Pinggui reflect the dark side of other people's nature, but seriously, Xue Pinggui is not completely a bad person, he is just an ordinary person with his own dark side.
In the original novel of "Qing Ping Le", Huaiji said to Huirou: "The good and evil of people cannot be judged by just one or two things. A bad person may do a few good things in his life, and a good person will never be guaranteed to do any confusing things that hurt others in his life."
There are not many pure black and white in the world, and most people are in a gray area.
allows gray existence and is the cultivation of an adult.
