Brief introduction of the warrior Lan Ling: the tragic fate of the low-key prince.
Low-key prince, Gao Changgong, a warrior of the Northern Qi Dynasty, is a low-key person.

Of course, he must also keep a low profile. Although you are the grandson of the prince, his life experience is really embarrassing. His father was Gao Cheng, Emperor of Wen Xiang in Northern Qi Dynasty, but his mother didn't even have a surname. Among the six brothers, he ranks fourth. Among them, the mother of the fifth young man, Gao Yanzong, is only a prostitute, but the official history also clearly records her surname as Chen. From this calculation, the identity and status of the mother of the warrior Lan Ling is probably worse than that of * * *, and later generations guess that she may be just a humble maid-in-waiting in the palace. In that era of paying attention to bloodline and gate valve, the embarrassment and pressure brought by the "inexplicable" identity of the soldier Lan Ling can be imagined. Therefore, he must keep a low profile and be a man with his tail between his legs.

In addition to identity, whether it is personal talent or social relations, the soldier Lan Ling must keep a low profile relative to other brothers. Gao Xiaoyu, the eldest brother of Henan, is not only "handsome and magnificent", but also "modest and generous, loves literature, reads widely, is omnipotent and never loses a game of chess", which can be described as both talent and appearance. More importantly, Gao Xiaoyu and his ninth uncle Gao Zhan grew up together in his grandfather's SHEN WOO Palace. They fell in love in the same year, and their relationship was very unusual. After Gao Zhan ascended the throne, he gave Gao Xiaoyu a "special courtesy". When he was playing in Jinyang, he did not forget his nephew who was the same age in Ye, the capital of Northern Qi Dynasty (now southwest of Linzhang, Hebei Province) and wrote to tell him, "I want to drink two glasses of Fenjiu, and I advise you to drink two glasses in Ye." The relationship between the two is so close that even historians can't help admiring "dear".

The two kings of Guangning are tall and talented. He has many advantages, such as "loving the people, studying classics, studying history, being good at writing essays and being a geisha", especially his painting skills. He once painted an eagle on the wall of his own room, "everyone thought it was true"; He also painted "The Stone Map", which was also wonderful at that time. In addition, Gao also has excellent administrative skills. The emperors of the Northern Qi Dynasty moved around like a merry-go-round, but they always held high positions, such as Sizhou Pastoral, Shangshuling, Situ, Lushangshu, General and Fu, trying to support the crumbling Gaojiangshan of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Gao Xiaowan, the third king of Hejian, was not as talented as his two brothers, but he was frank and brave. At the beginning, the Turkish and Northern Zhou armies captured Taiyuan, and Gao Zhan prepared to withdraw eastward to avoid the enemy. He grabbed his uncle's horse's head and refused to withdraw. He went out with bare arms and vowed to fight the enemy to the death. Later, when the Northern Zhou army was defeated, he was worshipped as the secretariat of Bingzhou (now Taiyuan). In addition, Gao Xiaowan has a great psychological advantage, that is, his mother is Queen Wen Jingyuan, so she is "arrogant and conceited". As Wen Xiang, who is about to become an emperor, people's pride also has capital.

The fifth young man, Gao Yanzong, was not much better than the soldier Lan Ling, but he was "lucky" and was adopted by his second uncle Gao Yang (Emperor Wenxuan, actually the first emperor of Beiqi) at an early age, and his popularity was very good. /kloc-when he was 0/2 years old, Gao Yang let him ride on his belly, and even indulged in the absurdity of "drowning himself in his navel". After urinating, Gao Yang also sighed happily: "There is only one poor one."

Gao, Lao Liu, is too young to compare.

The warrior Lan Ling, sandwiched between these brothers, can't get up or down, which is quite a bit of psychological loneliness and awkward position of "grandma doesn't hurt, uncle doesn't love".

If we study the reason why the warrior Lan Ling is not loved and valued, besides his low status as a mother, I think it is also related to his appearance. History shows that he is "soft in appearance and strong in heart". In today's words, he is a "handsome man" with fair skin, thin eyes and quite neutral beauty. However, no matter compared with his grandfather Gao Huan, whose eyes are bare and his teeth are as white as jade, or compared with his handsome father Gao Cheng, the appearance of the warrior Lan Ling lacks a necessary "heroic spirit". In this military-worshipping royal family, his "small white face", which is neither tall nor heroic, certainly does not conform to the aesthetic taste of the royal family. Therefore, it is not difficult for us to understand why his second uncle likes Gao Yanzong, a super fat man who "squats on his back".

Another important reason why the warrior Lan Ling kept a low profile may also be related to the sudden death of his father in childhood. As the eldest son of Gao Huan, the great prime minister who controlled the lifeblood of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, his father Gao Cheng had political experience since childhood. At the age of 65,438+06, he served as the governor of Gyeonggi and joined the auxiliary court affairs. In addition, his talent of "extraordinary knowledge and rigorous skills" made him "shake the ruling and opposition parties" in a short time. At the age of 29, as a general, he was also a prime minister, sealing the king of Qi, and added a special gift, that is, "praising the unknown, not standing in the court, and taking the sword to the temple", which can be said to be the highest position of a person and minister. But young and promising Gao Cheng is not satisfied. He has the idea of replacing him with someone who controls the military and political power, so he doesn't care about filial piety to the emperor in the Eastern Wei Dynasty. On one occasion, he took a large glass of wine with malicious intent and forced him to show filial piety to the emperor to persuade him to drink. Xiao Jing said unhappily, "Since ancient times, no country has perished. Why should I live like this!" Gao flew into a rage and shouted, "What me! Me! Dog feet! " After scolding, Cui, a courtier around him, punched the emperor three times and then "swaggered out". This is not over. Afterwards, Gao Cheng asked Cui to "thank you". Xiaojing felt that he was not to be taunted, so he had to submit to humiliation and give him colorful silks How much did you give? Cui had to ask Gao Cheng for instructions. Gao Cheng said, take a paragraph for example. Xiao Jing gave 400 horses, and Gao Cheng also said, "It's also an ear." From this perspective, Gao Cheng is the kind of overbearing advocate who "takes power and tide wait for no man".

This conceited personality, that is, too "high-profile", also made Cheng pay a heavy price. One day, when he and several confidants were plotting how to be emperor in Dongbaitang, north of the city, a chef named Jing Lan was ordered to eat. Gao Cheng didn't know why he didn't like him, so he said to the people around him, "I dreamed of this slave last night and should kill him." Jing Lan is no ordinary slave. The son of Qin Lan, the general of Liang State, was captured by the Eastern Wei Dynasty because of the war. Qin Lan wanted to redeem it with money, but Gao Cheng refused. Perhaps in his view, what he wants is the pride of the winner, and what he wants to see is also the humiliation of the loser. Therefore, Jing Lan made many requests, but Gao Cheng refused. Later, he also beat Jing Lan and threatened him to "sue him more". This time, Gao Cheng's order made Jing Lan desperate. Six of his colleagues broke into the hall and assassinated Gao Cheng. For this bizarre assassination, future generations have been suspicious because of too many coincidences. For example, a few days before the incident, there was a nursery rhyme in the city: "A hundred feet of pole head, one step further, the underwater lights went out." In addition, courtier Cui cried and recited Bao Mingyuan's poem for no reason when the ministers were waiting outside Bei Gong: "The general's singing is rare in the next life." Therefore, it is very likely that Gao Cheng's death was a long-planned and carefully planned political murder. Those seemingly superstitious rumors are probably just psychological warfare carefully planned by political opponents.

The sudden death of his father had a profound and great influence on the character formation and attitude towards life of the soldier Lan Ling. Whether being a man or doing things, if you are too ostentatious, too high-profile and too indifferent to others, you may fall into the "Jedi" at any time. Because of his special status, it is estimated that he has tasted all kinds of human beings, so the soldier Lan Ling knows how to understand others, which is why he is not like a general and a prince is not like a prince. History tells him that "in order to be diligent and meticulous, every fruit is sweet. Although a melon counts as several fruits, it will be shared with the soldiers." This shows that he is the kind of royal cadre who is "close to the people" and can share joys and sorrows with the soldiers, and the generosity and benevolence of the warrior Lan Ling are by no means posturing. The most telling thing is his attitude towards "political enemies". When he was in Yingzhou (now Hejian, Hebei Province), Yang, who joined the army, accused him of taking bribes and bending the law, so he was removed from office. When he made a comeback and led troops to attack Ding Yang, Shenyang happened to be in his barracks, so he was afraid that the soldier Lan Ling would take the opportunity to kill himself. But the soldier Lan Ling comforted him and said, "I didn't mean to." But Yang was still uneasy and asked for punishment. Lan Ling, the warrior, had to make a small mistake and hit Yang's 20 boards before settling down.

The Book of the Northern Qi Dynasty also recorded a touching detail about the warrior "Shu Ren" in Lanling. It is said that once in court, "all the servants who followed him were scattered, leaving only one person, and the Dragon Palace was the only one", but the warrior Lan Ling did not care afterwards and "did not punish". From this point of view, he must be very generous and kind to his servants at ordinary times; Otherwise, I wouldn't have the courage to look down on a prince like him. In the feudal dynasty with different monarch and ministers and strict hierarchy, especially in the crazy era of "not treating people as human beings" and beheading at every turn in the Northern Qi Dynasty, the warm and tolerant side of the warrior Lan Ling is even more commendable. Prince destiny is low-key and tragic.
