所以我们可以得出结论，祢衡之死，第一，是他自己有不检点的地方；第二，是刘表借刀杀人；第三，归根结底是社会黑暗。因为祢衡再怎么说，他没有死罪。一个江厦太守，就因为人家骂了自己就把人家随随便便杀了，这是什么社会？这是专制社会、黑暗社会、没有人权的社会，还不经审判，也没有找律师来辩护。所以归根结底，祢衡死于不讲人权和不讲法制。但是我们可以肯定，即便是在讲人权、讲法制的时代，这个人也不讨人喜欢。他说话从来不给对方留面子，也从来不给自己留余地，他硬是要把对方和自己都逼到墙角上去，这是何苦呢？所以我的结论是，祢衡不该死，也不值得学习，更不能当作英雄来歌颂。
Therefore, we can conclude that the first reason for your Heng’s death is that he himself has some irregularities; Second, Liu Biao used a knife to kill people; Third, in the final analysis, it is social darkness. “Because no matter what you say, he has no capital sin.”. What kind of society is it for a Jiangxia prefecture governor to casually kill others just because they scold them? This is an autocratic society, a dark society, and a society without human rights. It has not yet been tried, nor has a lawyer been found to defend it. Therefore, in the final analysis, you Heng died of neglecting human rights and the rule of law. But we can be sure that even in the era of human rights and the rule of law, this person is not liked. He never gives face to the other person when he speaks, nor does he leave room for himself. He insists on forcing both the other person and himself into a corner. Why bother? So my conclusion is that You Heng is not worthy of death, is not worth learning, and cannot be praised as a hero.
＊在祢衡之死的问题上，易中天认为，祢衡是有不检点的地方，但罪不致死。他狂敖不羁的性格使他处处碰壁，到处伤人，最终难逃噩运。而作为祢衡好朋友的孔融，则比祢衡明事理得多，性格要收敛很多，但他却真真正正地死于曹操之手，这是为什么呢？
＊易中天先生刚才讲到，祢衡之死多少有点他性格的因素，才招致杀身之祸，与曹操关系不大。但是祢衡的好朋友孔融，却真的被曹操所杀，这是为什么呢？有着谦让之美德的孔融，为什么会死于曹操之手呢？
On the issue of your death in Heng, Yi Zhongtian believes that you are a place of misconduct, but sin does not lead to death. His wild and unruly character caused him to encounter obstacles and hurt people everywhere, and ultimately he was doomed. As your good friend, Kong Rong is much more reasonable and restrained in character than you, but he really died at the hands of Cao Cao. Why?
As Mr. Yi Zhongtian mentioned just now, there was something in your Heng’s death that was due to his personality, and it had little to do with Cao Cao. But your good friend Kong Rong was really killed by Cao Cao. Why is this? Why did Kong Rong, who has the virtue of humility, die at the hands of Cao Cao?
孔融的死，就是得罪了曹操，这个很明确。而且孔融是一贯得罪曹操，早在建安二年的时候，袁术在淮南称帝，这个时候曹操就想趁机把杨修的父亲杨彪杀了。因为这个曹操和杨彪历来是搞不来的，而杨彪和袁术是儿女亲家，有婚姻关系，这当然是曹操以权谋私了，公报私仇啊，这个可以肯定。孔融就去找曹操了，说这个不能这样株连啊，说按照法律，父亲犯罪都不能株连到儿子，何况是一个亲戚关系呢？曹操就装糊涂说这是皇上的意思。孔融想，真是扯淡，皇上，皇上这会儿有意思吗？谁不知道现在是谁在管事，但话不能这么说，孔融就说，照曹公的意思，成王要杀召公，周公也不知道？成王年幼的时候是周公摄政，说成王要干什么事情周公可能不知道吗？再说了，现在为什么这么多人都到许县来？大家还是希望你曹公能做一个公正的人，执法如山，给大家一个公道嘛。你这样做，弄得人心涣散，以后谁都不来了，谁都不会再投奔我们了，别人我不敢说，我，孔融，鲁国堂堂男子汉，明儿个就不来上班了。曹操没有办法，放了杨彪。这是一件事。
The death of Kong Rong was to offend Cao Cao, which is very clear. Moreover, Kong Rong has always offended Cao Cao. As early as the second year of Jian’an, Yuan Shu became emperor in Huainan. At this time, Cao Cao wanted to take the opportunity to kill Yang Xiu’s father, Yang Biao. “Because Cao Cao and Yang Biao have never been able to get along, while Yang Biao and Yuan Shu are children in wedlock and have a marital relationship. Of course, this is because Cao Cao used his power to seek personal gain. Revenge from the public for personal gain is certain.”. Kong Rong went to find Cao Cao and said that this cannot be implicated in this way. According to the law, a father’s crime cannot be implicated in his son, let alone a kinship relationship? Cao Cao pretended to be confused and said that this was what the emperor meant. Kong Rong thought, “What nonsense, Your Majesty, is it interesting now?”? Who doesn’t know who is in charge now, but it can’t be said that way. Kong Rong said, according to Duke Cao, King Cheng wants to kill Duke Zhao, and Duke Zhou doesn’t know either? When King Cheng was young, he was the regent of Duke Zhou. Could it be that Duke Zhou didn’t know what King Cheng was going to do? Besides, why are so many people coming to Xu County now? Everyone still hopes that you, Mr. Cao, can be a just person, uphold the law like a mountain, and give everyone justice. “By doing this, you have scattered people’s minds. In the future, no one will come and no one will join us anymore. I dare not say to others, I, Kong Rong, a handsome man of the State of Lu, won’t come to work tomorrow.”. Cao Cao had no choice but to release Yang Biao. This is one thing.
