In the spring of the sixth year, Zhao Di, Emperor Gaozu, finally returned to Chang 'an, where he worked as an envoy of Huns for 19 years. He was in his prime when he left, and when he came back, his hair and beard were all white and wobbly, and everyone who saw him sighed. The first thing I did when I returned to North Korea was to pay a grand memorial to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in Maoling. Because he is on a mission of Emperor Wu, he has to report to Emperor Wu. When he came back from work, Emperor Zhao Di rewarded him for his achievements, made him a vassal country in charge of foreign affairs, and rewarded him with a lot of money and fields. Su Wu is one of them. Unfortunately, the Su family is sparsely populated at this time. When Su Wu was still herding sheep in Xiongnu, General Li Ling went to surrender Khan. Li Ling told Su Wu about his family situation: his mother had passed away, his brother Su Jia and his brother Su Xian had been forced to commit suicide because of a small mistake, and his wife had remarried, leaving only two sisters, two daughters and one son at home. I haven't heard from them for more than ten years, and I don't know if they are alive or dead. After delivering these desperate news, Li Ling took the opportunity to persuade Su Wu to surrender. He said, "Life is short, so why bother yourself for a long time?" Although Su Wu was sad and choked up, he still insisted on integrity and would rather die than surrender, which made Li Ling extremely ashamed. When Su Wu came back this time, the history books did not record how his sister and daughter were, but his son Su Yuan was still there, which was a great comfort to Su Wu. But he didn't expect that just one year later, the father and son were involved in a power struggle. One side of the fight is General Huo Guang, and the other side is General Shangguan Jie on the left and General Shangguan 'an of his son Che Qi. In addition, Shangguan and his son also contacted princess royal, beggar, physician Sang Hongyang and Yan Wang Liu Dan. They planned to kill Huo Guang, abolish Emperor Zhao and make the Prince Yan emperor. After the conspiracy was exposed, Shangguan's father and son Sang Hongyang were killed, and princess royal, a beggar gang, committed suicide. The court investigated their accomplices and implicated Su Wu and his son. Su Wu has always made friends with Shangguan Jie and Sang Hongyang, and the Prince of Yan criticized Su Wu's official position many times in the incident of defaming Huo Guang. In addition, Su Yuan and Shangguan 'an are also close friends, which is already very suspicious. What's more, Su Yuan was also accused of participating in the conspiracy of Shangguan. As a result, he was arrested and executed as an accomplice of a traitor. At that time, Su Wu was herding sheep on the North Sea shore. He doesn't eat or drink in winter. When you are hungry, you can only dig grass seeds in the mouse hole to satisfy your hunger. When he was thirsty, he grabbed the snow and put it in his mouth. He endured inhuman torture and finally waited for the day when he returned to his native land. This iron man overcame numerous threats and inducements from Huns, the harsh living environment abroad, and even the resentment of family destruction. How powerful is the spiritual strength that supports this man! But this time, Su Wulian had no strength to struggle. He could only watch helplessly as his son, who had been together for only one year, left 19 and walked to the execution ground. Soon, he himself was dismissed from public office. The logic of power struggle is that there are winners and losers, and no amount of credit and fame can be a "free card", which is the "clear rule" of authoritarian society. If you don't know this rule, you are doomed to bad luck. If you know this rule, you may be doomed. This is the horror of the power field. There are countless examples of this. Only heroes of the Western Han Dynasty before Su Wu, such as Han Xin, Chao Cuo, Zhou Yafu, Zhufuyan and Sang Hongyang, died unexpectedly. Compared with these people, Su Wu is already lucky. Free black hair, heroic blood and tears. This may be the darkest day of Su Wu's life. However, we can still see the bright side from this depressed darkness. In fact, because Su Wu and Shangguan Jie were too close, it was impossible for them to escape from prison, and Ting Wei, who was in charge of the trial, did go to the court to demand the arrest of Su Wu. However, Huo Guang wisely stepped down from the throne, only avoiding his post. A few years later, Zhao Di died, and he mentioned Su Wu's contribution in his last words. After Xuan Di proclaimed himself emperor, Su Wu resumed his official position.

After he knew it, he immediately sent an emissary to redeem Sue and sealed him off, making Su Wu feel safe. In his eighties, Su Wu died in Xuan Di for two years. Nine years later, in the third year of Ganlu, Uhaanyehe, a Hun, came to Chang 'an for the first time to pay his respects to Xuan Di, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, which was a great event in the history of the Western Han Dynasty. Later, Xuan Di remembered those heroes and asked the painter to draw 1 1 portraits of great heroes on the Kirin Pavilion, including Su Wu. History is cruel, but there is warmth in cruelty. History is dark, but darkness contains light. In the 19 years after leaving the Huns, Su Wu brought the tenacity, selflessness and fearlessness of human nature to the extreme, and became a model of benevolence, which lasted for a long time. In the twenty-one years since he returned to North Korea, Su Wu was involved in a major rebellion, although his official position was not high, but his achievements were never ignored. Zhao He praised him many times, Huo Guang pressed the throne to impeach him, and Zhang Anshi recommended him to be reinstated. Other pro-expensive ministers, such as the Queen's father Ping En Hou Xubo, the Prime Minister Wei Xiang, the physician Bing Ji and others, have been paying tribute to him all their lives. This shows us the soft and gentle side of human nature. What is the greatest inspiration of Su Wu's life? To paraphrase Hemingway's famous saying, we can say: "Although the world is not beautiful, it is still worth fighting for.
