Song Jiangshen——Analysis of the Characters of Song Jiang

Since the publication of "Water Margin", the evaluation of Song Jiang has been mixed. The Liangshan heroes made the way for the heavens, but in the end they fell apart, which made people scream for them. While criticizing the corruption of the Song Dynasty, many people also pointed their finger at Song Jiang, the leader of Liang Shanbo. He is the most complicated figure in The Water Margin and the most iconic figure he can bear. Is he sinister and treacherous, or is he loyal and loyal? Is it a good place, or a good man?

The university asked Jin Shengtan to be very powerful against Song Jiang. He said that Song Jiang is a "lower man". It is "the next test", the inferior inside. Of course, we can't just think about the people's likes and dislikes. We can analyze the description of Song Jiang from the novel. As everyone knows, every hero in the Water Margin has basically only one nickname. Song Jiang has four nicknames, and each of his nicknames shows his characteristics in this respect, and also shows the complexity of this character. One is the Black Songjiang River, because he looks black and his body is short, which is in terms of his form. Xiao Yi Hesaburo is mainly about his family ethics. In the 18th time, he said that he "has a big filial piety at home" and treats his family's parents with an attitude that emphasizes "filial piety." The second nickname is timely rain, and the 18th time is also introduced. He said that he is worthy of money, likes to help people, and likes to relieve others, so it seems that when the rain is needed, the rain will come down. So compare him to timely rain, the third nickname is Ho Baoyi. Bao Yilang is the name of the military attache in the Song Dynasty. Song Jiang expresses modesty by "self-calling the righteousness", which means that he is the lowest person. This is an explanation. Another explanation is that the guarantee is to maintain the guarantee, the meaning is the righteousness of loyalty, to maintain loyalty, to call, everyone calls him like that. Then the word "hu Baoyi" probably means that the word "hu Baoyi" actually refers to Song Jiang's attitude toward the country, the attitude toward the court, and the attitude toward the emperor.

Another point, how should we evaluate the life of Song Jiang? Everyone’s views are different, and there is no unified opinion until today. When the 18th Song Jiang just appeared in "Water Margin", he gave him a comprehensive introduction. He is a farmer for generations, he has been farming for generations, and he has lived in the pastoral life. He studied history through childhood and was educated by traditional culture. The more important point is the profession he is engaged in. He was a servant in the county. Therefore, from his family background and his cultural education and occupation, we can judge that his family background has given him a certain sense of justice. His profession has developed a small and prudent habit, and he has cultivated him. Like the means of playing with power. In fact, the word "power", I think it is only a means of dealing with problems, like to play with power, not necessarily this person is very bad. It is not a manifestation of his character, but a means for him to deal with the problem.

So second, is Song Jiang a hero of derogatory? Or the loyalty of the country? We can analyze it from a few things before he went to Liangshan and after Shangliangshan. Before Shangliangshan, he secretly covered his own for his own brother. And in order to be afraid of the exposure of the matter, kill the puppet. From these things, we can say that Song Jiang is a hero of derogatory. Then, after Shangliangshan, he became the leader of a rebel army. His several leaderships of the Liangshan brothers fully demonstrated his command and organizational skills. After being recruited, he became a loyal minister of a country. He changed the name of Liangshan from the original "for the heavens" to "shun the heaven to protect the country", which is the behavior of a country's loyal ministers.

Therefore, no matter what kind of subjective feelings we have against Songjiang, or love or hate, it is said that he is an opportunist with the banner of benevolence and righteousness, the leader of the righteous army with impure motives, and the surrender of Liangshan’s investment in the court. The peasant leader of the temperament cannot deny that he is a successful artistic image in the gallery of Chinese classical literary figures.
