First, they have different interests in returning to officialdom.

When Song Wu was an official, he was honest, had a bad relationship with his colleagues, and didn't make much money, but Song Jiang was different. He has a very good relationship with his boss and colleagues, and his life is colorful. So Song Jiang thinks that only in officialdom can we get benefits, but what can we get in Liangshan?

Second, the difficulty of entering the officialdom is different.

As we all know, Song Wu killed the tiger. After word of mouth and polishing, Song Wu was selected by the government and easily became a small official. Most hard-won things will not be cherished. Sung river is not. He worked hard and studied hard to get a chance to work in officialdom, which he certainly cherished.

Third, their educational level is different.

Song Jiang grew up reading four books and five classics, and the concept he accepted from childhood was loyalty to the monarch and patriotism. He wouldn't have rebelled if he hadn't been forced to.

Song Wu is different. My parents died, and my brother Wu Dalang made a living by selling baked wheat cakes. He was lucky not to starve to death, so there was no extra money for him to study. Therefore, in Song Wu's mind, there is no concept of loyalty to the emperor and protection of the country.

Fourth, they see different levels of officialdom.

Song Wu's experience made him only see the dark side of officialdom. His brother was killed and the evidence was conclusive, but the county magistrate refused to accept the case.

If Song Wu hadn't swallowed this tone and killed the dog men and women, no one might have avenged Wu Dalang. Although Song Wu served as the head of the capital, it was useless. Instead, he saw the dark side of the government more clearly, so he was extremely disappointed with officialdom.

Look at Song Jiang again. After Song Jiang killed Yan Poxi, it was a murder case with sufficient evidence, but it was spared. His captors turned a blind eye to this. A few years later, he came back and was sent to Jiangzhou. So, Song Jiang got a lot of benefits from the imperial court, and with decades of hard work, how could he be willing to leave?

On the question of whether to win over, the contradiction between Song Jiang and Song Wu is deep-rooted and cannot be solved by one brother. They won't compromise, they won't compromise, and they can only go their own way.

Two people have different choices and different endings. He became a monk with Lu and died at the age of 80. Song Jiang, who relied on the imperial court, became a pawn and was finally killed by traitors.
