For Sima Qian, is it right to kill a scholar but not humiliate him?

For Sima Qian's experience, this sentence is just the opposite. Sima Qian suffered a man's greatest shame-castration. In a sense, he is already an incomplete person, which is a great insult to his personality. However, he chose to live and linger in a dark prison.

However, his choice is not to drag out an ignoble existence. He can endure such a great shame only for his own ideal. He wants to write a history book that reflects real history. Many things happen. In his 13 years of humiliation, he completed his career and ideal. He left us a great historical work-Historical Records, which initiated China's biographical history books. Therefore, sometimes choosing to live is not necessarily a sign of cowardice, but a brave face and a real warrior.
