I remember when I was a child, I heard adults talk about the Three Kingdoms, and how Wang Yun cleverly devised a series of schemes to drive a wedge between the villain Dong Zhuo and the fierce general Lu Bu, and successfully got rid of Dong Zhuo. , A great hero with both wisdom and courage! But when I grew up, I had the opportunity to read historical materials such as "Three Kingdoms" and "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", but a different kind of thought arose in my heart. I loved and hated this hero I thought before, and I didn't know how to treat it for a while. This idol of the time couldn't help but sigh after thinking about it, and sighed in his heart: Poor Wang Yun! He was born in a bureaucratic family and was extremely intelligent since childhood. He "had little interest in serious matters and was determined to make meritorious deeds. He often recited scriptures and practiced shooting day and night." He was praised by Guo Linzong from the same county as "Wang Zuocaiye". Like many bureaucrats, Wang Yun joined the official career very early. He was upright and had a good temper, which destined his official career to be bumpy. History books say that he "was a county official when he was nineteen years old. At that time, Zhao Jin of Jinyang, Xiaohuangmen, was greedy and unruly and became a serious problem for the county. He was allowed to be hunted and killed." He killed an official named Zhao Jin at that time. As a result, a big disaster occurred. Zhao Jin's brother colluded with the officials. The bad guys complained first and turned the matter upside down and blamed it on the emperor. As a result, "Emperor Huan was furious". Wang Yun was fine, but his boss was implicated—— The prefect Liu Zuo was executed. Wang Yun waited for the boss who died because of him for three years before returning home and returning to his official career. If it had been anyone else, they would have become more sophisticated after receiving this "lesson", but Wang Yun did not change his principles of life at all. At that time, there was a vacancy in the county, so Wang Qiu, the prefect, called a man named Lu Fo to fill it. However, Lu Fo's character and reputation were not outstanding. Wang Yun felt that the prefect had improperly selected the person, so " "Off Yan Gu Zheng", which angered the prefect. Because of this incident, Wang Yun was ordered by the prefect to take him into custody and prepare to kill him. Fortunately, the governor Deng Sheng found out about this, so he "heard it and passed it on to others". Not only did he save his life and get promoted, but "Yunyou was well-known, but Lufo abandoned it." Wang Yun in Romance of the Three Kingdoms 12

Wang Yun can be regarded as a standard intellectual in ancient times. He read the Five Classics and practiced the Six Arts. Historical records record: Young Master Yun was very upright, ambitious to make meritorious deeds, often practiced reciting scriptures, and tried to gallop day and night. Shooting - it can be said that he is both civil and military. Once such an outstanding young talent stands out, he will naturally be highly appreciated by others, so "the three princes were created together and Situ Gaodi was appointed as the censor." After the Yellow Turban Uprising, Wang Yun was appointed as the governor of Yuzhou. Wang Yun, who was appointed at the critical moment, defeated the Yellow Turbans and "along with the left Zhonglang general Huangfu Song, the right Zhonglang general Zhu Jun and others surrendered hundreds of thousands", which can be said to be outstanding military exploits. But at this time, something unexpected happened. Among the seized items of the Yellow Turban Army, letters were found between the guests of the official Zhang Rang and the Yellow Turban Army. You must know that Zhang Rang is one of the ten permanent servants, with power over the government and the public. Anyone who dares to offend him will be punished. Not much. When this kind of thing happened, it was this stupid young man who took the lead again - Wang Yun. Wang Yun's report could not help Zhang Rang at all, but it brought trouble to himself. Zhang Rang, who was holding a grudge, was not willing to let it go. Soon, Wang Yun was convicted of a crime by Luo Zhi and imprisoned. However, it seemed that his luck was not bad. He happened to be amnesty, so he was restored to his original position as governor. But what he never expected was that a few days after he was released, he was captured again. At that time, everyone was sweating for him. Even Situ Yangci sent someone to tell him: These things happened because you offended Zhang Rang. Now life and death are uncertain, so we have to find a comprehensive solution. Some people even thought that he was doomed. In order to prevent him from being tortured and died, they even gave him poison so that he could commit suicide. In the end, Wang Yun's answer was: I am a minister, and I am guilty of the king. When you are ready to thank the world for your great achievements, how can you kill yourself with poison? Historical records record that Wang Yun "throwed a cup and stepped out of the carriage. When he arrived at the court, everyone on the left and right encouraged him, and the courtiers all sighed." No matter you say he is unsophisticated or pedantic, you have to admit it. , Wang Yun is indeed a man. Perhaps it was because of Wang Yun's bloody nature that General He Jin, Taiwei Yuan Wei, and Situ Yang Ci jointly petitioned for his mercy. In the end, he was spared the death penalty, but could not escape the crime of living. Afterwards, after many rescues, he was rescued in He was released the following year. After all this trouble, Wang Yun also knew that the eunuchs were powerful, so he "changed his name and moved to Hanoi and Chenliujian". He did not return to the capital until the death of Emperor Ling. At this time, General He Jin was plotting to wipe out the power of the official group, so he asked Wang Yun to participate in the plan. Wang Yun's official career saw the light of day again, so he "please be engaged in Zhonglang and transfer to Henan Yin. After Emperor Xian ascended the throne, he paid homage to the imperial servant. Then he moved to the Shangshu Ling. In the first year of Chuping (189), Wang Yun "replaced Yang Biao as Situ and kept the Shangshu Ling as before", and finally became the Sangong. In this short period of time, his official career could be described as Smooth sailing. Even during the period of Dong Zhuo's dictatorship, Wang Yun was still a very important figure in the court. Dong Zhuo was still very kind to Wang Yun - "Everything in the government affairs was entrusted to Yun." Relying on his position, Wang Yun kept a large number of palace books and materials and other utensils. Facing Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun was also "pretentious and submissive. Every time he supported Dong Zhuo, Zhuo also accepted his heart and did not become suspicious, so he was supported." The royal family is in crisis, and the ministers, both inside and outside, must rely on Yan." When the Han Dynasty was in a state of turmoil, the once stupid young man finally got the idea, and he no longer acted recklessly. Dong Zhuo regarded Wang Yun as his confidant, but unexpectedly, Wang Yun had been thinking of ways to get rid of Dong Zhuo.

Shortly after Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, Wang Yun proposed that "Yang Zan, the captain of the Qiang school, be the military commander on the left, and Sun Rui, the Jinwu soldier, be the governor of Nanyang, and send the troops out of Wuguan Road." In name, it was to conquer Yuan Shu, but in fact On the other hand, he was preparing to strike back and send troops to help the king, but this plan could not be implemented because of Dong Zhuo's doubts. In the third year of Chuping (192), Wang Yun's opportunity finally came. He took advantage of the conflict between Dong Zhuo and his subordinate Lu Bu, successfully drove a wedge between the two, divided Dong Zhuo's group, and pushed Dong Zhuo to the guillotine. After Dong Zhuo was killed, the people were very happy, the soldiers shouted long live, and the people sang and danced. For a time, Wang Yun's prestige reached its peak. It is a pity that after this victory, Wang Yun may have been dazzled by the victory. Not only did he fail to correctly judge the situation at that time, but he returned to his ignorant and ignorant style, resulting in a series of mistakes. Mistakes lead to failure. Perhaps this is the so-called getting carried away with oneself, and extreme happiness leads to sadness. Speaking specifically of Wang Yun's mistakes, one is that he did not handle internal relations well. After Wang Yun came to power, he killed many ministers of the court who had relied on Dong Zhuo, completely forgetting that he had only survived under Dong Zhuo's care. The famous scholar Cai Yong sighed a few words when he heard that Dong Zhuo was killed, and was imprisoned by Wang Yun to die. In addition, he relied on his high achievements. " This caused strong dissatisfaction among the Qingliu people and the scholar-bureaucrat group, and "the people were not very attached to it." Wang Yun also treated Lü Bu with great contempt during his assassination of Dong and held military power. He "met him as a swordsman", which meant that he didn't take Lü Bu seriously at all. He was so angry that Lü Bu was "disappointed and gradually disillusioned." Equal". In this way, the civil servants and military generals are all deviant, so how can they convince the public? The second mistake he made was not knowing how to win over people's hearts. Faced with the large amount of wealth left by Dong Zhuo after his death, Lu Bu proposed "to bestow Zhuo's wealth on ministers and generals". This was supposed to be a correct suggestion and would have a positive effect on stabilizing the situation in Chang'an, but Wang Yun refused to adopt it. In dealing with the remaining forces in Xiliang, Wang Yun, who had no strategic vision and was full of bookishness, made the third mistake. After Dong Zhuo was eradicated, his subordinates Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, and Li Meng petitioned for pardon. If Wang Yun could correctly judge the situation and pardon the four of them, the crumbling Eastern Han Dynasty might be able to get a precious chance to breathe. Wang Yun's answer was: "Zhuo was so domineering that these four people helped him; although the world is now being granted amnesty, these four people are not pardoned." He only wanted to eliminate evil, forcing these four people to rebel. On this issue, Wang Yun seems to be inferior to Lu Bu, whom he has always looked down on. Wang Yun was headstrong and unstrategic, and the Kwantung forces also had different attitudes towards the Chang'an regime. Many forces among the princes had evil intentions. Wang Yun did not receive strong support at home or abroad. Chang'an originally tended to be stable. The situation becomes complicated again. Finally, in September of the third year of Chuping (192), Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, and Li Meng led their troops to besiege Chang'an, and turmoil came again. Character determines destiny. Wang Yun's character determined his final unfortunate ending. He rejected Lu Bu's suggestion to withdraw from Chang'an and was determined to serve the country with his death. As a result, he was killed by Li, Guo and others who entered Chang'an. He was five years old. At the age of sixteen, Wang Yun's family members, old and young, were all killed, and only two nephews escaped. While the Wang Yun family suffered almost annihilation, Chang'an, and even the entire land of China, fell into greater social unrest and political chaos, and the warlord chaos became increasingly uncontrollable. "White bones are exposed in the wild, and there are no roosters crowing for thousands of miles." It cannot but be said that Wang Yun also bears a certain degree of responsibility. Although Wang Yun had the great feat of eliminating rebellious ministers in the court and alleviating the crisis for a while, he was unable to turn the tide of collapse and save the people from fire and water. His strong personality once made people feel extremely emotional and sigh. Read the sages. As he was reading, he seemed to have forgotten the wise saying in "The Book of Rites": "If the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if the people are clear enough, there will be no disciples."

When the smoke cleared and the dust settled, all that Wang Yun’s life left to future generations was infinite emotion and sighs!
