What kind of person is Gou Jian, the King of Yue?

In terms of political ambition, Gou Jian, the King of Yue, was a king with political ambition and foresight. After defeating Wu, he reflected on himself, comforted the country and people, and made a comeback in the future. (For details, see "Gou Jian Destroys Wu" in Guoyu. Therefore, from a political point of view, Gou Jian, the King of Yue, is an ambitious king and a people-oriented king. Of course, at that time, his people-oriented theory still failed to jump out of his historical category, and it was people-oriented in a narrow sense, but this should be affirmed.

The biggest shortcoming of Gou Jian, the king of Yue, is that he can share joys and sorrows, but he can't share wealth with him. Fan Li saw this. As the saying goes, a bird hides its bow in a canoe. Wen Zi refused to listen and finally gave himself a sword. So judging from Gou Jian's personal qualities, he is not worthy of recognition.
