I think Wang Po is worse than Pan Jinlian for the following reasons: First, Pan Jinlian's marriage is unfortunately the inducement for Pan Jinlian to cheat and poison her husband; Secondly, Pan Jinlian derailed and poisoned her husband, which was basically induced by Wang Po step by step; Third, Wang Po only encouraged Pan Jinlian to dig his own grave step by step in order to get Ximen Qing's silver reward. Fourth, after Song Wu found out the truth about Wu Dalang's death, Pan Jinlian basically pleaded guilty, while Wang Po wanted to get away with it.
The marriage between Pan Jinlian and Wu Dalang is a tragedy in itself, and the fundamental reason lies in the inequality between Pan Jinlian and Wu Dalang. Wu Dalang was born in a poor family, his parents died young, and he had to bring up a younger brother, Wu Erlang, who was ten years younger than him. The biggest problem is that Wu Dalang looks extremely ugly, not only ugly, but also short, known as "three inches golden, valley bark"; In contrast, although Pan Jinlian's background is not so good, she is only a servant girl of a large family, but she is very attractive, enchanting and beautiful, and tall. The great contrast between Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian made Pan Jinlian feel ashamed. What's more, Pan Jinlian loves romance. If she marries a man like Song Wu or Ximen Qing, maybe she can rest assured, or at least restrain herself, but she married Wu Dalang. It can be said that the misfortune of marriage is a bomb buried in Pan Jinlian's heart, which may detonate marriage and more important problems at any time. From this perspective, Pan Jinlian's bad, but also worthy of sympathy.
Pan Jinlian is deeply dissatisfied. Facing the unsatisfactory reality, Pan Jinlian will show it more or less in daily life. A typical example is that when Wu Dalang led his younger brother Song Wu to appear in front of Pan Jinlian, Pan Jinlian almost lost his mind and caused a great shock in his heart. God, how can there be such a big contrast between brothers? The arrival of Song Wu made Pan Jinlian no longer quiet, so she tried to seduce brother-in-law Wu Erlang, but of course she was reprimanded by Song Wu. From love to hate, Pan Jinlian tore a hole in his heart, waiting for the arrival of another man. And all this, let the next-door neighbor Wang Po see in the eye, therefore, it can be concluded that Pan Jinlian is an invisible man and operatives in Wang Po's eyes. By chance, Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing met. Wang Po understood Ximen Qing's desires and desires. Just to get a reward from Ximen Qing, Pan Jinlian fell into the trap of cheating and poisoning her husband under the guidance of Wang Po.
According to the truth, what happened in Pan Jinlian has nothing to do with Wang Po, but Wang Po is a unwilling lonely person. Although she is old, she is still as energetic as when she was young. Before that, she had done many blind dates. On the surface, it is a matchmaker, but in fact, it is a pimp, and she earns black-hearted money from it. When Ximen Qing asked Wang Po for help, Wang Po inscrutably shared his experience of pimping with Ximen Qing, saying that as long as he tried Pan Jinlian at the age of ten, he would know whether there was a play or not, and he would be able to determine whether Ximen Qing had a chance to hook up with Pan Jinlian. When they made a deal, Wang Po did exactly as he said, and took ten steps to test Pan Jinlian's reaction. Pan Jinlian is a lecherous person. With the trap set by Wang Po and Ximen Qing, she naturally hooked up with Ximen Qing reluctantly. At the instigation of Wang Po and Ximen Qing, Pan Jinlian got carried away, regardless of human life and Song Wu, poisoned Wu Dalang, and finally dug his own grave.
When Song Wu came back from Tokyo, he couldn't believe that his brother died inexplicably. He believes there must be something fishy about it. Song Wu learned an important news from Pan Jinlian. From this message, he opened a breakthrough in this matter, that is, looking for the head of the team, Uncle He Jiu. Song Wu obtained the physical evidence of his younger brother's poisoning from Uncle He Jiu, the head of the regiment, and found the witness of Yun Ge. Song Wu went to the county government with witnesses and material evidence to report the killing of Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing, but was rejected. Song Wu had to venture to find another way. He first caught Wang Po and Pan Jinlian and interrogated them in front of all the neighbors. In this case, Pan Jinlian had to confess all his scandals one by one, while Song Wu asked his neighbors to record these confessions in detail. At this point, Wang Po still wants to quibble, evade guilt and curse Pan Jinlian. "You confess first, how can I stand it? I have only suffered for a long time!" In the end, Wang Po can only admit his guilt.
From this point of view, Pan Jinlian is unlucky, dissatisfied with the reality, easy virtue's and lascivious. Encouraged and seduced by Wang Po and Ximen Qing, he fell into the abyss of life step by step, and finally did the evil deed of cheating and poisoning her husband. In contrast, Pan Jinlian is hateful and Wang Po is even more hateful; Pan Jinlian is not good, and Wang Po is even worse.
I'm Daniel, and I'll answer.
I think Wang Po in Water Margin is even worse for two reasons.
The first point: hidden deep, design traps.
From the beginning, I secretly observed Pan Jinlian's behavior and understood the worldly wisdom among ordinary people. In order to please Ximen Qing, I designed the indirect contact between Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing. A seemingly coincidental encounter is actually a plot designed by me. For a world-weary woman like Pan Jinlian, she naturally falls into a trap. So Wang Po is the mastermind, and adding Wang Po to her charges is even worse.
The second point: human nature is not good.
I can feel from Wang Po's conversation that she is a person who is afraid of chaos in the world, and provocation and incitement are her strengths. This person is a character developed over the years, so her human nature is very bad.
The above two reasons are enough to show that Wang Po is worse than Pan Jinlian.
I answered this question without hesitation: Wang Po is the worst.
Why do you judge like this? Let's analyze how bad they are.
First of all, Pan Jinlian.
Of course, everyone is familiar with this beautiful woman. She looks as beautiful as flowers and pure as jade, but she married Wu Dalang, nicknamed "Three-inch Dinggu Bark". She is less than five feet tall, ugly, dull and short.
Dissatisfied with her husband Wu Dalang, Pan Jinlian began to try to seduce her brother-in-law, Song Wu. After the seduction failed, she hooked up with Ximen Qing, whom she met by chance. In order to be with Ximen Qing, Pan Jinlian poisoned Wu Dalang at the instigation of Wang Po and Ximen Qing.
From this point of view, Pan Jinlian not only cuckolded her husband, but also conspired with the adulterer to murder her husband. She is really a vicious woman.
However, looking at Pan Jinlian's whole life course, I found that as a weak woman, she didn't go bad from the beginning. She resisted the molestation of the old rich man and married "poor" Wu Dalang. Her love for freedom was ruthlessly rejected by Song Wu, and then she reluctantly chose Ximen Qing.
Pan Jinlian subjectively didn't want Wu Dalang to die. In order to live an ideal life, she cruelly poisoned Wu Dalang at the instigation of Ximen Qing and Wang Po. In principle, Pan Jinlian is not the mastermind and is unwilling to commit a crime. The real reason is the oppression of feudal dogma, bullying in the old society and the supremacy of male power, which leads to her psychological distortion and eventually becomes a bad woman.
Secondly, let's talk about Wang Po.
Wang Po is the most disgusting character in Water Margin. She has a glib tongue, sweet words, open a teahouse in public and help people deliver babies. In fact, she specializes in pulling fibers for women and finding honey for men. This is her specialty.
Wang Po caught a little commotion in Pan Jinlian's heart. In order to please local tyrant Ximen Qing and profit from it, he set a trap step by step and pushed Pan Jinlian into Ximen Qing's arms. Pan Jinlian's tragedy can be said to be caused by Wang Po.
And Wang Po's bad is clever and intangible, and there is no trace of bad. She advised Ximen Qing to take medicine, but Pan Jinlian poisoned herself, but she benefited from it. Its clever means and vicious heart are really extraordinary.
In conclusion, I think Wang Po is the worst. Pan Jinlian's "bad" is still being induced, while Wang Po is an evil woman who has no bottom line, three views of corruption, moral corruption and extremely bad heart.
Wang Po is even worse.
Pan Jinlian did evil himself. Wang Po not only did evil himself, but also instigated others to do evil.
A person is evil, only oneself is evil. One person does evil, and the scope is limited.
Instigating others to do evil, the more successful the instigation, the more wicked people there are, and the greater the harm.
As the old saying goes, don't do small good, don't do small evil.
Wang Po instigated Pan Jinlian, which turned out to be a small profit, and finally turned into a great evil that did harm to people. Instigation is the original sin. Without Wang Po's instigation, Pan Jinlian might not have committed a crime.
Good or bad is a personal subjective prejudice and does not involve moral issues. Pan Jinlian and Wang Po in Water Margin are related to private morality in public morality, so their morality is deficient. If it is good or bad, then the result is basically like this.
Wang Po is very kind to Ximen Qing. Without her help, such a good piece of meat could not be eaten.
Ximen Qing said to Wang Po, good man, old woman, I am busy making a lot of money!
These two people are ashamed of the rest of society! Then it became talk after dinner, and they had no interest. Not bad, not bad!
The two men told Wu Dalang that the adulterer and adulterer would die a natural death. A total villain!
The two men said to Wu Erlang, damn it, bullying and killing my brother made me lose face!
Wang Po to Pan Jinlian: There is no benefit except being unfaithful to Pan Jinlian. If you don't make money, you will lose your health, and you will risk being found and reviled. Are all bad. Why do you do this?
Pan Jinlian to Wang Po: You are my cash cow!
Who are the good people? Bad guys?
Now put private morality in the perspective of public * * *:
A. Will Pan Jinlian cheat?
This is not necessarily! Her infidelity has its contingency and inevitability. Look at Pan Xiao's life track. Before meeting Takejiro, she was actually a chaste and heroic woman! The big family tried their best to get it. Why has Pan Xiao suddenly changed? Many people hate because of love!
B: What does Wang Po do?
Wang Po, this old woman is an old woman who does needlework on the surface and pimps behind her back. The evil of this matter is original. As long as she does this, it is inappropriate in both private morality and public affairs. But does that society care? Basically no matter. Otherwise, she can't do it, right?
C. Why has Pan Xiao suddenly changed so much?
If you compare this life to. One of the biggest changes is the addition of a Takejiro. So what happened between this uncle and sister-in-law turned into a tragedy? So you ruined yourself? What did Takejiro do? What does his appearance mean to Pan Xiao?
It's wrong not to say anything!
Who's the bad guy? As far as public morality is concerned, Wang Po is a bad person. Humanity is always selfish. She just wants to earn some tea money. If she had known beforehand, she would have risked her life to buy tea money. Will she do it again? She's not that bad.
In Water Margin, I think Pan Jinlian is obviously worse than Wang Po.
Reason:
1. Pan Jinlian's sin is to be unfaithful to marriage and deliberately kill her husband who has lived together for many years. What she did in those years was particularly bad in nature and belonged to the level of "people and gods are angry together". Even today, this is a great sin and does not deserve any sympathy or forgiveness. Her sinfulness, like her name, is still loud and clear today, and is still spurned by people.
2. Talking about Wang Po, Wang Po is just a woman who is greedy for money and has no moral bottom line. She doesn't care about other people's lives for money. She is a selfish person. For her own selfish interests, she can completely destroy anyone's family, marriage, life and death. As long as it is profitable, it is worthwhile for her to do so. In the end, as soon as it happened, she got the punishment she deserved: she was hacked to death in the street.
3. Compare the two. Wang Po's great evil only encourages the occurrence of evil, just like a magnifying glass, which magnifies and encourages the occurrence of some evil. If positioned, she can only be regarded as an accomplice in crime at most. Pan Jinlian is different. She is the executor of evil, the main murderer and principal offender of evil. In nature, it is more serious. At any level, she has no reason to be sympathetic. She is worse than Wang Po.
To sum up, Pan Jinlian is the subject and principal offender of evil, and Wang Po is an accessory. Therefore, Pan Jinlian is far worse than Wang Po, and he is even more spurned and hated.
Wang Po is worse, of course. Pan Jinlian cheated on Ximen Qing and then killed Wu Dalang. Wang Po is the mastermind of all this.
Although there is a teahouse on the surface in Wang Po, it is not the main business, and its main source of income is matchmaking. There is a poem to prove it: opening words deceives Lu Jia, and exporting wins the Sui River. Just talking about the six countries, the whole campaign is full of words. Only a solitary phoenix will fight in pairs in an instant. A widow who loses her husband is right in one word. Unlock the triple door girl and cover the nine-product hall fairy. His Royal Highness the Jade Emperor took care of the Golden Boy, dragging his arm. Wang Mu Palace is full of rumors. Let arhat hold bhikshuni's trick; Teach Li Tianwang to hold a ghost mother with a little authority. Sweet words tempt people, and men are born if they are sealed; Soft words make up, women are like magpies. She instigated the Weaver Girl to be lovesick and let Chang 'e find a spouse. . People don't explain that Lu Jiasui was a debater in the late Qin Dynasty and early Han Dynasty. Lu Jia advised the King of South Vietnam to surrender to Han, and Lu Jia advised Ying Bu to betray Xiang Yu and surrender to Liu Bang. Then she instigated Ximen Qing to find Pan Jinlian, and she also instigated them to kill Wu Dalang. After Song Wu killed Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing, he handed her over to the government.
The official verdict is as follows: Wang Po created feelings, seduced, and instigated his wife to poison her husband; I also asked my wife to drive Song Wu away and not to sacrifice my brother, which killed people and advised men and women to lose their wheels and fit in with their deaths. The execution process is like this. Take Wang Po out of prison and take orders from the hall. Read the imperial edict. Wrote a guilty card and drew a squat posture. He pushed the woman onto the donkey, four long nails and three ropes, sat up and carried it down; Break drums and gongs; Offenders are led from the front and urged after mixing sticks. Raise two sharp knives and shake a paper flower; Take it to Dongping House and eat it in your heart. This is a saying in the Song Dynasty. The original word "cut" means that the moon (meat) has lost the word "bone" and is shaped like a human skull. Shuowen Jiezi is interpreted as "removing human flesh and setting bones", which means to cut people with zero knife.
"Criminal Records of the History of Song Dynasty" introduced: "Those who amputated limbs in the middle of the year were the most at that time. A word is a throat. Years of imprisonment was widely used in the Song Dynasty, so the people were revenging their enemies and slashing people to death like the official years of imprisonment. If Pan is with jy, it is also an extension of this official punishment. The punishment in the Song Dynasty was public, just for people to see. Mainly as a deterrent, people dare not make mistakes. But slowly it became entertainment.
Wang Po is an unlicensed planner, a great director without a stage, a donor, a pimp, a schemer, an unfaithful businesswoman, a perverted old widow, a n experienced person who knows women's psychology, a consultant who ate the plaintiff, and an unfortunate instigator who ate the defendant. Pan Jinlian is the life of a young lady's personal maid. A little prostitute with a conscience has insufficient IQ and EQ. After being developed, her sex quotient was out of control. The tail of wasting youth experienced the glitz of eating and drinking, and was designed and directed into a gorgeous puppet, but it was impossible to extricate itself, which ruined Wu Er's own sudden corpse for thousands of years. What a pity!
Friends who have seen Water Margin know that Wang Po, who runs a teahouse, played a key role in Ximen Qing's contact with Pan Jinlian. The five "wonderful tricks" she summed up: Pan Lu Deng Xiaoxian, are really wonderful, and people of insight can't do it. In Jin Ping Mei, the image of Wang Po is more exquisite. So, what kind of person is Wang Po? It's complicated, but it can be summed up in one sentence: a person who makes people break out in a cold sweat.
This Wang Po, originally an old widow with only one son, went out to work and didn't come home for several years. But this Wang Po is not poor. He not only runs a teahouse, but also matches the media and delivers babies. He is a very popular man in yanggu county. Even Ximen Qing, a prominent figure in this street, should be named "Wang Gan Niang", which shows her status. After Ximen Qing entered the teahouse, Wang Po began to provoke Ximen Qing with words. Why? Because she knew Ximen Qing, she was sure of Ximen Qing's thoughts. In other words, she knew her business was coming. Sure enough, when Ximen Qing asked her to set up an affair with Pan Jinlian, she first settled her own reward, and then theoretically, she first threw out the theory of "Donkey Deng Xiaoxian" to pick up girls, and then threw out ten steps to seduce Pan Jinlian, which was "very light".
These two theories are really brilliant, showing Wang Po's extremely high analytical and comprehensive ability and meticulous logical thinking. Not only that, throwing out these two theories also shows the difficulty of this matter and finds a good way out for myself in the case of failure. It's really watertight.
In the first step, Pan Jinlian agreed to help Wang Po make clothes. In the second step, Wang Po asked Pan Jinlian to make clothes in the teahouse and determined the place to take the light. The third step, Wang Po arranged Pan Jinlian to eat and drink at noon. The fourth step, the third day, Ximen Qing went to the teahouse to drink tea, causing the illusion of encountering Pan Jinlian. The fifth step, Wang Po praised Ximen Qing as a great benefactor, and Ximen Qing praised Pan Jinlian for his good craftsmanship. Step 6: Wang Po thanked them for their efforts and arranged a banquet to invite them to drink. Step 7: Wang Po goes shopping with money to create a separate space for them. Step 8: After Wang Po prepares the dining tables, ask Pan Jinlian to accompany Ximen Qing to drink. Step 9: Wang Po lied about going out to buy wine, but he was hiding outside the door waiting for good news. Step 10: Ximen Qing deliberately pinched Pan Jinlian's feet while holding chopsticks.
Wang Po's ten tricks excited Ximen Qing, just waiting for the fish to take the bait, while Wang Po had the cheek to remind Ximen Qing again not to forget the promised twelve taels of silver. One is an irresistible charming young woman, one is an expert in romantic love, and the other is a senior matchmaker wandering the Jianghu. The three of them are bound to cause quite a stir in qing he. In the end, it's too late to regret. What a pity!
Readers are familiar with Wang Po in Water Margin. She is from yanggu county. She lives next door to Wu Dalang's house in Zishi Street. She runs a teahouse at home as a matchmaker and midwife. Wang Po played a very important role in the process of Ximen Qing's adultery with Pan Jinlian. And she also instigated Pan Jinlian to poison Wu Dalang, which can be said to be the worst person. Look at what she said on this matter: Wang Po said, "It's good to know!" This is mowing the grass and removing the roots, which will not germinate; If the roots are not removed, spring will sprout again. The official went to get some arsenic, and I taught my wife to cook it myself. When it is over, thank me very much.
