To say that the historical dynasties that my country's classical novels are most keen to depict, it must be Sui and Tang Dynasties. In this chaotic world where heroes have emerged in large numbers, stories of heroes and soul-stirring people from all walks of life are endless.
The classics that have been handed down include "Said Tang" by Rulian in the Qing Dynasty, "The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" by Chu Renhuo, a writer of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty, and the late Qing The "Xing Tang Biography" processed by storytelling artists is endless. Even Luo Guanzhong, who wrote "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", once wrote a classic novel called "The Biography of Sui and Tang Dynasties" to join in the fun.
The reason why so many ancient authors tried their best to portray the style of the Sui and Tang Dynasties is that the stories of that era were indeed vivid and colorful. Today, I will tell you about a relatively special character in the Sui and Tang novels. He could have lived to be 73 years old, but because of his 5 stupid things, he lost 50 years of life. And who is this person, what silly things did he do, listen to the author slowly.
This person is the famous Luo Cheng. Strictly speaking, this person does not exist in history, but is just a figure made up in Sui and Tang novels. In the novel, Luo Cheng is the seventh hero in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. He is portrayed as the son of Luo Yi, a famous general in the early Tang Dynasty, and is a cousin with Qin Qiong. He is known as the "cold face, cold gun and pretty Luo Cheng" with a silver gun. Called.
And in "The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", it was mentioned that Luo Cheng asked the fortune teller Xu Maogong to fortune how long he could live. Xu Maogong took a look at Luo Cheng's appearance and combined his birth date and came up with a sentence Live to be 73 years old.
However, not long after the calculation, Luo Chenggong was calculated by Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji during the battle with Liu Heijun. He was then shot to death in the Silt River by Suning, and he met Hades at the age of 23. The main reason for the 50-year reduction in life span is mainly related to the five things Luo Cheng did.
The first thing is to conceal martial arts from his cousin Qin Qiong. At that time, Luo Cheng found that Qin Qiong's double mace was quite good, so he asked to learn. He suggested that he give the Luo family gun to Qin Qiong in exchange for Qin Qiong's ancestral double mace routine. As a result, in the end Qin Qiong gave everything to him, but Luo Cheng kept a "returning carbine" and did not teach Qin Qiong. This kind of dishonest practice made him lose 10 years of life.
The second one is Shan Xiongxin, a good brother who betrayed his birth and death. Shan Xiongxin and Luo Chengnai are close friends, and have experienced a lot of life and death together. Later, because Shan Xiongxin and Li Shimin had a feud, they did not vote in the Tang Dynasty, but turned to Wang Shichong.
After that, Luo Cheng surrendered to Shan Xiongxin because of desperation. Shan Xiongxin treated him like a brother, but Luo Cheng secretly made small moves, pulling Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin to Datang. What's even more exaggerated is that after the two met in battle on the battlefield, Luo Cheng didn't even take into account a trace of brotherhood. Not only did he personally capture Shan Xiongxin, he also watched him get Fa-rectified. Such an innocent behavior deserves another 10 years of life loss.
The third thing is to start with his relative Ding Yanping. Ding Yanping is Luo Cheng's foster father. Many tricks in the Luo family gun were taught to Luo Cheng by Ding Yanping. Later, when Luo Cheng broke the long snake formation, he used Ding Yanping's single-shot and double-spear skills to pierce the chest of his adoptive father. Such a general who strikes at his relatives should really lose his life. 10 years.
The fourth piece is love. Luo Cheng was attacking Nahui in Mengzhou. He once disguised himself as Mengzhou and met two women named Hu Jinchan and Wang Jin'e. Because Luo Cheng was born handsome, he soon captured the hearts of two people, and later the three became husband and wife.
However, when Luo Cheng wanted to attack Mengzhou, he sent two people to carry out the task to help him seize the city. As a result, Mengzhou City really caught fire, but Luo Cheng did not rescue the two people, but watched them burn to death, and finally entered Mengzhou. It is not too much to lose another 10 years to such a low-hearted person.
The fifth thing is that there is no emperor and courtesy. At that time, Luo Cheng helped Li Shimin to conquer the city and made great achievements. But he took credit and pride, and often ignored Li Shimin. After helping Li Shimin get rid of the most difficult Shan Xiongxin,Li Shimin once hosted a banquet for Luo Chengqing.
As a result, at the celebration banquet, Luo Cheng actually asked Li Shicheng to walk 8 with his drunken self. In this way, those who disregard the number of emperors and officials should be reduced by 10 years.
Through these 5 things, it is not difficult to see Luo Cheng's low-hearted, vicious character. The so-called multiple acts of injustice will kill himself. He who could have lived 73 years ago will eventually lose 50 years of life.
