How to treat China's ancient national heroes?

Take Wen Tianxiang as an example. Wen Tianxiang was originally a scholar, but he stepped forward in this country's crisis and recruited soldiers to save the imperial court. Empress Dowager Cixi wanted to surrender, but there was no messenger. She met Wen Tianxiang and asked him to take charge of the negotiation. As a result, she was detained thereafter. Later, Yuan Shizu surrendered himself, which was rejected by Wen Tianxiang. In the end, we had no choice but to kill Wen Tianxiang. This patriotic spirit of loyalty to the army was worthy of respect at that time.
