Dear history lovers, what do you think of the official history and unofficial history?

As for the relationship between the official history and unofficial history, I think we can combine them to find out the similarities and analyze them. The official history is mostly changed by the rulers, so we can't believe it completely, but it is necessary according to the unchangeable law of success or failure. And unofficial history may be circulated among the people because he is dissatisfied with something and some people want to keep the truth. We don't know what the real history is like, so it's hard to be sure. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, there have been no famous historians. When a historian no longer adheres to the principle of recording the truth, the official historical record is bound to be questioned. We don't know whether the historian is honest, but we know that the ruler can replace the historian who records the' facts' he wants to see. The great history book says, "Cui Yi killed his king." Cui Zi killed it. His brother inherited the book and the deceased, two people. His brother is also a book, but he gave up. Heather's family heard that Dashi had died and kept the past simple. Smell his book, too. (During the Spring and Autumn Period, during the reign of Duke Zhuang, state affairs began to be controlled by powerful ministers Cui Yi and Qing Feng. Tang Jiang, Zhuang Gong's wife, killed Zhuang Gong's house with this when she was "singing on the railing". Tai Shibo, a historian of Jin State at the end of Qi Dynasty, recorded: "Cui Yi regicide". Killed by Cui Yao, Hou Taibo's two younger brothers are just like their brothers. Finally, Cui Yao had no choice but to become the eternal "Cui Yao killed the king" in history. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, under the influence of decadent Confucian culture, the integrity of historians has long since disappeared. But I think, if you want to find the truth, you might as well start with biography. China's writing has existed for thousands of years, and China's literature is even more profound. Covering up a truth will inevitably be covered up by countless fig leaves, but there will always be a little flaw when the justice of the earth is long. Therefore, we can still find problems through many contradictions and then express our views, but it is not easy to restore the truth. If the official history is the historical trend, maybe unofficial history is the shining point of the truth. Although unofficial history is outrageous, what makes us think deeply is unofficial history. The simplest example, the mystery of Yongzheng's accession to the throne, was said by one of unofficial history to have tampered with the imperial edict. It seems very reasonable and well-founded. Just one or two strokes changed the fate of two princes, but they could not stand scrutiny. We will think about why Kangxi chose Yongzheng. Since his succession is orthodox, what can Kangxi recognize him? So unofficial history has a great role. You can reflect, question and even learn from it. Don't believe in official history; But don't believe it all; Unofficial history can't be trusted, but you can't believe it all. In fact, why pursue the ultimate loyalty and treachery? Who has two sides? What we value is his achievements and his ability. Why care about his true colors? On the other hand, the official history is official and orthodox; Unofficial history is the will of the people. Knowing a lot of kings and figures in history, we will find that many kings and heroes will have a lot of' gossip' if they act too autocratically. Birth, status and even children were all impacted by unofficial history. Can't you explain whether this role is popular or not? Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, has a decent image in our official history and traditional literature. He loves the people like a son, treats scholars well, and follows good advice and so on. But the truth is, he killed his brother, robbed the throne, married his sister-in-law, and in his later years he was extravagant and extravagant, building a great project. It's a confession before death, so that you can commit a crime. He also taught Li Zhi to be a wise king. How nice! The people forgave him and continued to praise him and help him cover up his mistakes and stains. Judy, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was also in a wrong position. However, in order to consolidate the political power, ten families were slaughtered and a literary prison was built in Daxing. If it weren't for the external strength, the internal background would have been pointed out by many people. But in the end, it only came to a mixed end. Isn't this the dissatisfaction of the literati and the people? According to the history books, the emperor always loved the people like children and treated them well, but many people died at Judy's hands. Can resentment be written off with pen and ink? Unofficial history's eulogy, motivation also appeared in the market, naturally gradually enriched and sufficient. People can get a deep-fried dough stick (Mr. and Mrs. Qin Gui) for their loyal minister Yue Fei, and they can get two stone statues, one is immortal and the other is immortal. But in the emperor's mind, the true loyal minister should be Qin Gui, and Yue Fei is just a traitor who issued twelve imperial edicts but did not obey your orders. So there are different positions and views. Who says rulers can completely enslave people and ignore historical facts? Those oppressed literati, like ordinary people, can make up unofficial history to defile and question the so-called perfect life of the rulers. This is the people's struggle against tyranny. People's power has been great since ancient times.
