Reflections on the Seventeen Chapters of Water Margin

Why did Song Jiang release the king privately?

After the robbery of "The Outline of Birth", the higher-level government sent people to Jeju to file a case, giving the mayor of Jeju ten days to solve the case. If he can't solve the case within ten days, he will be "invited" to Salmonella Island. (exile)

Frightened, the magistrate immediately called He Tao, the police chief, and scolded him, saying that he didn't try to catch him. He threatened: "Give your hometown a distant marching state first, because geese can't fly anywhere." He called a writer, tattooed the words "overlapping" on He Tao's face ... "State", and sent the name of the state as empty. He shouted, "He Tao, if you don't catch the thief, it's a felony."

He Tao snooped around and finally caught Bai Sheng, the day mouse. Bai Sheng confessed the crime and gave up Chao Gai: "Chao Bao Zheng from Dongxi Village, Yuncheng County."

So, He Tao went to Yuncheng County to catch classical works.

This arrest is very secret. First, in the middle of the night, Bai Sheng was arrested and forced to make a confession. Then, "Starry Night" came to Yuncheng County.

Supposedly, it won't leak the news.

That He Tao came to Yuncheng county yamen. I saw an official coming out of the county seat-this person is Song Jiang.

This is sung river's first appearance, in the eighteenth time of the novel:

The surname is Song Mingjiang, a famous male, ranking third. My ancestral home is Songjia Village, Yuncheng County. Because of his dark face and short stature, everyone called him Black Sung River. Moreover, he is filial to his family and generous to those in need. Everyone calls him filial to Kursaburo. ..... I will make friends with heroes in Jianghu all my life.

At that time, Song Jiang met He Tao and asked: What is the official business of the boss coming to the county?

He Tao told the whole story of catching Classical.

Song Jiang was taken aback and thought, "Classical is my confidant. He has committed the crime of being obsessed with the sky now. If I don't save him, he will be captured and his life will be over. " Then, I stayed in He Tao for tea, and I turned to send a message to Classical and told him to run!

So, why did Song Jiang play classical music privately?

It is meaningless to rely solely on "bosom friends and brothers". Although it is said to be "confidant", it is actually just "recognition". There is no deep friendship.

1. When the seven classical people got together to plot the "family planning", from beginning to end, there was no mention of Song Jiang as a confidant.

2. Chao Gai and Wu Yong get together to discuss every day. These two people have left recently! The relationship is not ordinary intimacy!

3. Wu Yong asked, "Who is it?" It can be seen that Wu Yong, who is mixed with Classical every day, doesn't know Song Jiang! The two have never met!

So it is doubtful whether Song Jiang and Classical are close friends.

On the other hand, even really close friends, in do or die, few people are willing to give up their future and life to inform others to escape.

It can be seen that there is an article in it. The following is my own opinion:

High return

No matter whether Song Jiang reports it or not, the possibility of classical escape is very great!

If we don't go to Song Jiang, the informant, then the county magistrate of Shi Wenbin must have arranged for Jeikiy and Lei Heng, the two police captains, to catch Classical.

And Jeikiy, Lei Heng, these two people, are people who want to deliberately let classical. As a result, I still can't catch the classics!

Therefore, Song Jiang broke the news first, and its essence is just a kind of "speculation" behavior! It has nothing to do with friendship.

In this way, Song Jiang can easily get a chance to gain a good reputation of "loyalty" in the rivers and lakes. And it is expected that because of "loyalty", it will be assigned to the huge sum of one tenth of the stolen goods of "birth class"! (about 3 million RMB)

(2) Low risk

Song Jiang is just a small official in the county. He Tao came to the county seat to find the magistrate Mr. Wen Bin, not to find Song Jiang. He met Song Jiang by chance.

Therefore, the person involved in this county is Mr Shi Wenbin.

No matter whether Classical ran away or was caught, it had little to do with Song Jiang. Song Jiang is not in charge of this case. But with Mr. Shi Wenbin.

Therefore, if Classical escapes, Mr. Wen Bin should take full responsibility, and he will never be responsible for Song Jiang! Song Jiang has nothing to do with this case!

Song Jiang secretly went to tell the news that Classical had run away. He has no legal responsibility. Not as serious as "risking your life" as he said.

(3) Remove stumbling blocks

Song Jiang, a small official, is now quite a small section chief, and is an industry doomed to have no future. According to the system at that time, he had no chance to be an official. But he spends money like water, spending money like water, and the income of this small section chief is somewhat unclear.

At the end of the 13th chapter of Water Margin:

Talk about a new magistrate in Yuncheng County, Jeju, Shandong Province. His surname was Wen Bin at that time, and he was promoted to public office on the same day, but he was honest as an official and honest in his work. There is kindness in every sympathy. Fight for land, argue right and wrong and then implement it; Hit, hit, hit, hit. In your spare time, you should also care about other people's feelings. Although the county governs officials, the fruit is the parents of the people.

Visible, this time of Wen Bin county magistrate is just transferred, time is not long, to tell the truth, more honest.

In this way, whether the county magistrate is clean or not will more or less affect the gray income of Song Jiang, a black-and-white foot.

Therefore, it is a low (no) risk and high-yield speculation for Song Jiang to report! At the same time, it can also harm the county magistrate of Shi Wenbin, achieving multiple goals.
