Is it true?/You don't say. Talking about songs has always doubted its authenticity. This period of history of Di Xin dynasty is rarely recorded in history books. There are only year numbers from China to Zhou Liwang. There is a written record afterwards. Everything that happened in Shang Zhouwang should be a legend. And the legendary things, we should not believe.
Our understanding of Shang Zhouwang is mainly based on a ghost novel called The Romance of Ghosts and Ghosts. The author of this novel in Ming and Qing Dynasties has never personally experienced the era of Shang Zhouwang, but he must have made it up according to legend and imagination. Most of the plots are told by novelists. Not history.
Give me some more evidence. According to historical records, Shang Zhouwang was "well-informed, flexible, tall and powerful". He once had the story of killing a tiger with his bare hands, holding a beam and a pillar in one hand. He also has the ability to judge complex affairs quickly and accurately. It serves to show that this man is a generalist. He once conquered Dongyi, expanded the national territory to the southeast of China, developed the Yangtze River valley, and gradually spread the Central Plains culture to the southeast. It can be said that he has greatly promoted the development of the Chinese nation, and his historical achievements are undeniable. You should remember that this is what the great historian and writer Mr. Sima Qian said. We must believe it. We have to believe that Mr. Sima Qian has also done textual research. In this way, Shang Zhouwang is a man with merits, deeds, abilities and contributions.
How could such an outstanding figure commit such inhuman and heinous crimes as drinking and eating meat, burning courtiers and caesarean section? Can you believe it? Can you believe that a person with strong enterprising spirit, on the other hand, is arrogant and extravagant, and leads a life of drunkenness? I don't think so
I can't remember which book I have read. Zi Gong, a student of Confucius, once commented on Shang Zhouwang. Zi Gong thinks: Some people deliberately put the evil of the world on Shang Zhouwang. Zi Gong said "framing others". Inference, what Zi Gong said is not unreasonable. It is a historical law that the Zhou Dynasty replaced the Shang Dynasty, and the winner was the king and the loser was the thief. History is always written by winners. Winners like to talk about what a dynasty looks like. Praise you, you are a flower; Derogate you, you are tofu dregs. It has always been like this. In order to consolidate its rule, the Zhou Dynasty certainly carried out negative propaganda on the previous dynasty. Otherwise, the reasons for the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty cannot be established.
According to historical records, there is also an unlucky emperor: Emperor Yang Di Yang Guang, who opened the canal and did many good things, at least in this matter. Without a little foresight, such a big project is impossible. But in the historical records, most of the records about him are disorderly crimes. Talking about songs has never understood that Yang Guang made great efforts to open the canal just to facilitate his own travel? Just to see the river for yourself? Just to play in the south? I'm afraid not. So, Yang Guang did a great thing, not even! History can also pick out the other side of his ulterior motives. History has proved that Yang Guang was an extravagant emperor. All latecomers have nothing to say here.
Chairman Mao once said that to overthrow a regime, we must first create public opinion. So is the revolutionary class, and so is the counter-revolutionary class. Chairman Mao's assertion is a truth tested by numerous historical events.
By the Qing Dynasty, some people had researched nearly 100 incriminating evidences of Shang Zhouwang, and gradually found that many of Zhou Wang's sins were aggravated by the pen and ink of historical literati. If this kind of textual research is reasonable, can we guess that the Shang Zhouwang Clause is unforgivable because of the political propaganda carried out by Zhou Wuwang, Shang Zhouwang's hostile force, which made Shang Zhouwang lose the popular support first and then replace it? Three men make a tiger, which has always been a means in political struggle. Goebbels, the representative figure of fascism, once said that a lie repeated a thousand times is the truth. Don't think that this is a technology that only foreigners can do, and China people are skilled at it. Analysis and research show that most of these crimes against Shang Zhouwang are caused by propaganda. Didn't the Kuomintang publicize that the * * * production party was a "bandit" with red eyebrows and green eyes? Therefore, the historical records about Shang Zhouwang are not credible. There should be three reasons:
One: political needs. King Wu must have a political slogan to vilify Shang Zhouwang, otherwise, he will be unknown. Rumors, slander, all kinds. It is a means of political struggle and a political need. Without demonizing and demonizing the enemy, it is impossible to arouse public anger and confidence. In the history of China and foreign countries, is there very little such thing as demonizing the enemy?
Second: the strategy of struggle. "Women are a disaster" is also Zhou Wuwang's political slogan. To attack da ji is to attack Shang Zhouwang, the leader of the enemy. Pointing at chickens and scolding dogs is also a means of struggle in Chinese and foreign history. Talking about songs never believes that the king of a country can be at the mercy of women. This is absolutely impossible. This kind of propaganda is extremely ugly in Shang Zhouwang. This greatly reduced Shang Zhouwang's prestige among the people. This is also a political need.
Third: use rumors as a weapon. If things are not spread correctly, it will inevitably lead to the tragedy of word of mouth. This kind of thing, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign never rare. After the Cultural Revolution, most people know that whoever knocks down a person will definitely discredit him or her. So that in the end, the parties themselves don't know, are they really like that? Is that history? Think of an old thing, a few years ago, it was very popular for veteran cadres to write memoirs and rescue documents. An old cadre read many articles about him and got angry later. He asked a reporter who wrote an article, "I was caught, but I ran away halfway." Not tortured by the enemy? Also, I have never been in love with a female spy of the Kuomintang? The reporter smiled and said, "Everyone says so. You can't go wrong." That's what your dad forgot. You must have been tortured by the enemy. That female spy as beautiful as flowers and pure as jade must have fallen in love with you, but you don't have a Chinese honey trap. "Well, the retired veteran cadres can't explain clearly.
Look, the client said it himself. Personal history doesn't count. The parties themselves can't say clearly. Therefore, even if Shang Zhouwang lived to this day, he could not tell his own history clearly.
How much of the history written on paper is a history of faith?
The history of Shang Zhouwang is even irrefutable.
