In real life, hypocrites are far more terrifying than real villains, and the tricks of real villains are used in the light, so that you know that he is morally inferior, but at least gives you the preparation for prevention. But this is not the case with hypocrites, who have gorgeous disguises, who are full of benevolence and morality, and finally stab them in the back when you trust him the most.
Mr. Jin Yong's "Smiling Proud of the Jianghu" can be described as the portrayal of the real villain Zuo Lengchan and the hypocrite Yue Buqun to the fullest, Zuo Lengchan belongs to the whole world knows that he is a bad person, and he himself does not shy away from his ambitions, in order to achieve the goal of unifying the rivers and lakes, unscrupulous means, so that the heroes of the world are disdainful.
And Yue Buqun endured humiliation and burden for decades, and handled things with the style of "gentleman" everywhere, but the final qualitative change made people stunned and stunned, when it came to scheming and bad water, ten Zuo Leng Zen was not worth one Yue Buqun.
1. Is Chen Youyu a real villain or a hypocrite?
Of course, the winner is the king, the loser is Kou, and after Chen Youyu experienced the defeat in the Battle of Poyang Lake, he was destined not to leave a good name in history.
Chen Youyi's original name was Chen Jiusi, and like Zhu Yuanzhang's original name Zhu Zhongba, in the Yuan Dynasty, this was the standard name given by the Han people. Chen Youyu grew up reading two years of private school, a little bit of culture, after adulthood, in order to mix food, he went to the local county to do a servant, life is still quite passable, but Chen Youyu from childhood has great ambitions, obviously, a small position can not meet his ambitions.
Later, the Red Turban Army led by Liu Futong shook the foundation of the Yuan Dynasty's rule, and at this time, Chen Youyu, who was not willing to be mediocre, decided to get a piece of the pie in the chaotic world, and when Xu Shouhui's general Ni Wenjun was slightly tuoyang, Chen Youyu joined the ranks of the uprising.
Chen Youyu fought bravely, and every time he attacked the city, he would be the first soldier, and slowly he was appreciated by Ni Wenjun and promoted to marshal with his battle merits. But then Ni Wenjun became rebellious, and he wanted to take Xu Shouhui's place, while Chen Youyu was faced with two paths in life, either to rebel with his master or to defend the supreme commander.
I have to say that Chen Youyu's judgment is correct. Ni Wenjun's rebellion failed, and he was finally defeated, Chen Youyu at this time resolutely supported Xu Shouhui, broke with Ni Wenjun, and after killing Ni Wenjun, he was appreciated by Xu Shouhui, not only making him replace Ni Wenjun's position, but also letting him take the post of Pingzhang.
With years of conquest, Chen Youyi gradually became the most powerful warlord under Xu Shouhui,Later Chen Youyu simply took Xu Shouhui to his old lair Jiangzhou, and as soon as Xu Shouhui entered the city, he was killed by Chen Youhui's prepared ambush troops in the city.
Not only did he annex Xu Shouhui's troops, but he also established himself as the King of Han in Jiangzhou, and from then on, Chen Youyu became the hottest peasant army leader in Jiangnan. As a real villain, Chen Youyu has never hidden his ambitions, he dares to think and dare to do, dare to be bold, kill his master twice, he is ambitious, pampered and expansive, he is solipsistic, and has the great ambition to unify the world, but the reality is very helpless, he met the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, who has not met for a thousand years, which can really be described as "both forgiveness and He Shengzhang" (何生璋).
So much so that later, Zhu Yuanzhang praised Chen Youyu in his chat with Liu Bowen, and Zhu Yuanzhang said: "After eliminating Chen Youyu, it is not difficult for the world to be pacified." Liu Bowen said: "Chen Youyu has great ambitions, and compared with Zhang Shicheng, who is in a corner of peace, he is really our biggest enemy." ”
Who in the Two or Three Kingdoms is similar to Chen Youyu?
Speaking of Chen Youyu being most criticized by later generations, it is nothing more than his two assassinations, it can be said that he was able to reach the later Han Dynasty step by step through internal coups.

Thinking of this, I can't help but think of the famous Lü Bu, Lü Bu just began to follow and assassinate Shi Dingyuan, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the great general He Jin and the Ten Constant Attendants were in a fight, Yuan Shao gave He Jin a bad idea: summon foreign generals to beijing and kill eunuchs!
The brainless He Jin did believe these lies, but before he could wait for his qinwang troops, he was murdered by the eunuchs in collusion. Yuan Shao and others immediately led troops to surround the palace and killed all the eunuch groups led by the Ten Permanent Attendants. The defeat of both foreign relatives and eunuchs led to the capital Luoyang immediately falling into a power vacuum.
When Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he picked up this big pie effortlessly, and like Dong Zhuo, Ding Yuan was also a foreign general who was summoned to Beijing. In order to annex Ding Yuan's team and eliminate his own hidden dangers, he sent people to bribe Lü Bu and kill Ding Yuan. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms describes this passage very well, saying that Dong Zhuo exchanged the Red Rabbit BMW for Lü Bu's allegiance.
Later, Lü Bu worshipped Dong Zhuo as his righteous father and followed Dong Zhuo to fight the princes of the Guandong, but Dong Zhuo had a violent and moody personality, and because Lü Bu had an affair with his maid, he threw a sword at Lü Bu, and the father and son became estranged, and later under wang Yun's dissension, Lü Bu killed Dong Zhuo and briefly restored the world of the Han Dynasty.
As a tyrant in the chaotic world, Lü Bu really has no loyalty to speak of, is a lord with milk and a mother, and does not hesitate to do anything for his own interests, is really an authentic villain. However, Lü Bu had courage and strategy, and he was really on a par with Chen Youyu's heroic talents, but their ability to kill the lord was a fight.
