During the Warring States Period, Lin Xiangru, the Scheerer of the State of Zhao, was ordered to go to the State of Qin and returned to the State of Zhao intact, so he was appointed as a doctor. He also accompanied the prince of Zhao to the Mianchi meeting set by the king of Qin, so that the prince of Zhao would not be insulted. In recognition of Lin Xiangru's contribution, the Prince of Zhao named Lin Xiangru Shangqing. Lian Po, a veteran, is proud of taking credit. He refuses to accept this, but he deliberately provokes again and again. Lin Xiangru has always been patient, focusing on national affairs. Lian Po finally woke up and offered a humble apology to Lin Xiangru. Make peace with each other and help the country together, and the country will be safe.

The story of "harmony but difference" preaches: all rivers run into the sea, and tolerance is great; Make peace with each other and level the world.

Every shot hit the target.

On one occasion, Wei Wenhou summoned Li Ke, the foreign minister, to discuss the way of governing the country and keeping it safe. Hou Wen said to Li Ke, "If your family is poor, you will think of a good wife. When the country is in chaos, you will think of a good husband. Wei is not strong enough. You want to build a country to help me run the country. What do you think of these two people? " Li Ke replied, "Just look at their past behavior and performance. See who they usually like to be close to; What you can give to others when you have money; Who can you recommend when you are a powerful person? What to do in adversity; Don't want anything when you are poor. From these five aspects, we have a good idea. " Wei Wenhou said happily: "After listening to your words, you can decide who to choose as the national phase." After Li Ke and Hou Wen said goodbye, he came to Huang Zhai's home. Q: "I heard that the monarch summoned Mr. Wang to choose the state guest. Who was chosen as the state guest in the end?" Li Ke replied: "Wei Chengzi." He changed his color angrily and said, "What am I worse than Wei? Xihe Prefecture, recommended by me; Your Majesty is worried about Yecheng, so I recommend Ximen Bao for governance. The monarch is going to crusade against Zhongshan, and I recommend Le Yangzi to win. After capturing Zhongshan, there are no guards. I recommend you to take office. The prince was short of a teacher, so I recommended Qu Houfu. What do you say, I'm not as good as Wei Chengzi? " Hearing this, Li Ke asked righteously, "Didn't you recommend me to the monarch for personal gain?" How can you compare with Wei? Although Wei enjoys a thousand salaries, 9/ 10 is used to recruit talents for the country, and110 is used for personal life. He recruited Bu Xiazi, Tian Zifang and Duan Ganmu from the East, all of whom belong to the world wizards. You respect them as teachers and learn from them the way of governing the country. And the five people you recommended, the king happens to be used as a minister. Then how can you compare with Wei? "Huang Zhai suddenly woke up after listening to Li ke's words. He bowed respectfully to Li Ke and said, "Huang Zhai is really ignorant. He just said a lot of wrong things and is willing to learn from you. "

Cut off all retreat

At the end of Qin dynasty, the general attacked Zhao. Zhao retreated to Julu (now southwest of Pingxiang, Hebei Province) and was surrounded by Qin Jun. He was appointed as a general and Xiang Yu as a lieutenant, leading an army to save Zhao. Yi Song led his troops to Anyang (now southeast of Cao County, Shandong Province) and held on for 46 consecutive days. Xiang Yu was deeply impressed by this, so he asked to enter a decisive battle to solve the difficulties of Zhao. However, Yi Song hoped that Qin and Zhao's troops would not attack until Qin Jun was exhausted after the war. However, at this time, the army was short of food and grass, and Yi Song was still drinking and taking care of himself. Xiang Yu could not bear to see this. He went into the camp and killed Yi Song, claiming that he was a traitor and opposed Chu. So the soldiers embraced Xiang Yu as the general. Xiang Yu killed Yi Song, which was a great shock to Chu. He was famous as a vassal. Later, he led the whole army across the Yellow River to rescue Zhao and solve the siege of the giant deer. After the whole army crossed the Yellow River, Xiang Yu ordered to sink all the ships, break the cooking pots and burn down his barracks, leaving only three days of dry food to show his death and had no intention of withdrawing troops. In this way, no way back's army reached the periphery of the stag, surrounded Qin Jun, and cut off Qin Jun's outreach channel. The soldiers of the Chu army took one as ten, and the battle was earth-shattering. After nine fierce battles, the Chu army finally defeated Qin Jun, and other governors who came to reinforce were too timid to approach. The bravery of Chu army greatly enhanced Xiang Yu's prestige. Even after the victory, when Xiang Yu met various governors in Yuanmen, all the governors dared not look at Xiang Yu. Later, "all the shipwrecks were destroyed" evolved into the idiom "cross the rubicon", which is a metaphor for a desperate battle with great determination.

Liu bang bears a grudge

Liu Bangxiang, Emperor Gaozu, was famous for his generosity, open-mindedness and understanding. Liu Bang has four brothers, and his eldest brother Liu Bo died at an early age. When Liu Bang was a civilian, he idled around all day, drunk and lusted, and made friends with a group of gangsters. Liu Bang often takes these people to his sister-in-law's house for dinner. Sister-in-law hates this brother-in-law very much. Once, my brother-in-law brought a group of no three no four people to rub rice, and my sister-in-law deliberately scraped the pot with a spoon and pretended to finish the soup. Liu Bang's buddy left. Liu bang secretly went to check and found that there was soup in the pot, and he hated his sister-in-law from then on. When Liu Bang finally proclaimed himself emperor, he enfeoffed all his brothers and relatives, but not the eldest brother's son. The emperor's father asked why. The founding king plausibly said, "I didn't forget to enfeoffment him, because his mother is too unlike an elder." The emperor's father pleaded repeatedly, and Liu Bangcai named his eldest brother's son "Tang Jie" (Xie, meaning "scrape").

The emperor and the assassin

"Don't go to yan dan here, the brave crowned. There was no one in the past, but today the water is still cold. " In this story, Jing Ke has always been praised the most. Of course, he is the protagonist of the story. But in my opinion, what is more worthy of respect are two people in the story who are rarely mentioned by future generations: Tian Guang and Fan. Qin people be vividly portrayed, Yan Taizi Dan asked Tian Guangbang for advice, and Tian Guang recommended Jing Ke to him. When he left, Taizi Dan said to Tian Guang stingy: "What I told you is a national event, but don't let it out." As a result, Tian Guang went back to Jing Ke and said, "The prince doesn't believe me. I am an old man, so I can't be trusted. Tell him Tian Guang is dead and nothing will be revealed! " -Then kill yourself. Fan is a general of Qin, but he doesn't know how to offend the king of Qin. Jiuzu was punished and fled to Yan State alone. The king of Qin did not stop him and offered a reward for his head. Jing Ke wanted to stab the king of Qin, but he couldn't get his trust. He went directly to Fan and said, "If I can give your head to the king of Qin, he will definitely see me. What do you think? " Van Yuqi said, "This is exactly what I want to do every day. Thank you for teaching me this trick! " -Suicide.

Hongmen feast —banquet offered with ill intentions

At the end of Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu attacked Qin Jun respectively. Liu bang first defeated Xianyang (the capital of Qin Shihuang), but Liu bang's troops were not as good as Xiang Yu's. Xiang Yu was furious and sent Dangyang Army to tackle key problems. After Xiang Yu entered Xianyang, he arrived in the west of the war zone, while Liu Bang was stationed in hegemony. Liu Bang's Sajima Cao Wushang sent someone to tell Xiang Yu that Liu Bang was going to be king in Guanzhong. Xiang Yu was even more angry after hearing this, and ordered the soldiers to have a hearty meal the next morning to defeat Liu Bang's army. A fierce battle is coming. Liu Bang was surprised to learn this from Xiang Bo, the father of Xiang Yu's Jishi family. Liu Bang respectfully offered a glass of wine with his hands, wishing Xiang Bo a long and healthy life, and made an appointment with his in-laws. Liu Bang's affection wooed Xiang Bo, and Xiang Bo promised to intercede in front of Xiang Yu, and asked Liu Bang to thank Xiang Yu the next day.

At the Hongmen banquet, although there is no lack of food and wine, there are also hidden dangers. Xiang Yu's father, Fan Zeng, has always advocated killing Liu Bang. At the banquet, he repeatedly motioned for Xiang Yu to start, but Xiang Yu hesitated and silently refused. Fan Zengzhao invited Xiangzhuang to dance the sword for a banquet and took the opportunity to kill Liu Bang. In order to protect Liu Bang, Xiang Bo also protected Liu Bang with a sword. At this critical juncture, Fan Kuai, a subordinate of Liu Bang, broke into the military gate with a sword and shield and glared at Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu saw that this person was distinguished, so he had to ask who the visitor was. When he learned that he was a participant of Liu Bang, he was ordered to give wine, and Fan Kuai immediately drank it. Xiang Yu gave a pig leg and asked him if he could drink any more. Fan Kuai also took the opportunity to speak well of Liu Bang. Xiang Yu was speechless, and Liu Bang took the opportunity to walk away. Sean, a subordinate of Liu Bang, said that Liu Bang was drunk and could not come to see him off. Now I present a pair of white walls to the king and a pair of jade buckets to the general (father Fan Zeng). Please accept it. I don't know how deep Xiang Yu accepted the white wall, but I was so angry that Fan Zeng smashed the jade bucket with his sword.

Later generations called the Hongmen Banquet a hidden danger.

Lovely Confucius

Confucius, a great thinker, led his disciples around the world to lobby for his political ideas.

One day, I came to Weiguo and lived in a home called Eat. Gong Ling, the monarch of Wei, had a beautiful woman named Nanzi. She worshipped Confucius and wanted to meet him. She sent someone to Confucius and said, "Gentlemen from all over the world who want to make friends with our monarch will definitely meet our Nanzi wife, and our Nanzi wife also wants to meet you." Confucius declined politely and made some polite remarks, so he had to go with everyone.

Mrs. Nanzi sat in the curtain and waited. Confucius kowtowed and bowed after entering the door, and the beautiful Mrs. Nanzi bowed in her tent. When she acted, the Yu Pei she wore made a tinkling sound, which made the respectful Confucius feel heartbroken.

Afterwards, Confucius was a little embarrassed when he saw his disciples again. He explained to himself, "I didn't want to see her. Since I have to, I have to give her a gift. "

Lutz didn't like listening, and Confucius swore in anxiety, "If I am wrong, God will definitely reject me!"! God must hate me! "

One day, Confucius came to Zheng and got separated from his disciples. Confucius stood alone at the east gate of Guo Cheng. A man in Zheng saw Confucius and said to Zi Gong, a student of Confucius. "There is a man at the east gate. His forehead, neck and shoulders resemble the birth of his son, but he is three inches shorter than Yu's waist. He looks flustered and listless, like a lost dog. "

When Zi Gong met Confucius, he told the truth. Confucius smiled and said, "He may not describe me correctly. He said I looked like a lost dog. That's right! Exactly! "

Once, Confucius passed by a place called Pu and met his rebellious uncle who occupied Pu. The Pu people detained Confucius because of his blind date with Weiguo.

One of his disciples, Ruligang Gong, was tall, smart and brave. He fought with the Pu people, who were afraid and said to Confucius, "If you swear not to defend your country, we will let you go." Confucius swore at once and made a contract with the Pu people, then let them go out of the city.

Zi Gong said that Confucius went out of the city to defend the country. "Can you break the contract with someone?" Confucius smiled calmly and said, "A contract made under duress does not count before God."

At the end of the warring States period, the seven chivalrous men competed for hegemony. After Shang Yang's political reform, Qin's power developed fastest. Zhao Haoqi of Qin began to plot to annex six countries and monopolize the Central Plains. In 270 BC, Zhao Haoqi of the State of Qin was ready to set out to cut Qi. At this time, Fan Sui put forward the strategy of "making friends far away and attacking near" to Zhao Haoqi of Qin, in order to prevent Qin from attacking Qi. He said: Qi is powerful and far from Qin. To attack Qi, the troops had to pass through Korea and Wei. It is difficult to win with few troops; Send more troops, even if you win, you can't occupy the land of Qi. It is better to attack neighboring Korea and Wei first and advance gradually. In order to prevent Qi from forming an alliance with Korea and Wei, Qin Zhao Haoqi sent envoys to form an alliance with Qi. After more than 40 years, Qin Shihuang continued to adhere to the policy of "making friends with Chu", first capturing Korea and Wei, then invading from two wings, breaking through Zhao and Yan and unifying the north; Break the state of Chu and pacify the south; Finally, qi was also cleaned up. Qin Shihuang fought for ten years, and finally realized his wish of reunifying China.

A person who repays kindness with heavy oil.

Han Xin, the great general who helped Emperor Gaozu paint the world, was in a very difficult situation without success. At that time, he often fished at the gate, hoping to solve his life with good luck. However, this is not a reliable way after all, and we should always be hungry. Fortunately, where he often fishes, there are many floating mothers (old women who clean silk floss or old clothes and old fabrics) working by the river. One of them sympathized with what happened to Han Xin and kept giving him relief and food. Han Xin thanked the hard-working floating mother for her kindness and told her that she would be rewarded in the future. Floating mother was very unhappy at Han Xin's words, saying that she would not be repaid by Han Xin in the future. Later, Han Xin made great contributions to Hanwang and was named King Chu. He remembered that he had been loved by his wandering mother before, so he ordered someone to bring her food and a table, and even gave her 1200 gold as a thank you.

A rare commodity that can be hoarded at a better price ―― something that can be used.

From Biography of Historical Records and Lv Buwei.

I am the grandson of the king of Qin, and I am a hostage abroad. My chariots, horses and daily necessities are not full, and my life is hard and frustrating. When Lv Buwei, a big businessman from Yangzhai, arrived in Handan, he met a stranger who won the prize and said, "This is a strange commodity. You can hoard it and sell it at a good price!" So he went to see the stranger and said, "I can improve your family status!" " "The stranger smiled and said," You should improve your family status first! "Lv Buwei said," you don't know, my family status depends on your family status. Knowing what he meant, the stranger invited him to sit down and have a good talk. Lv Buwei said, "The king of Qin is old. The prince loves Mrs. Huayang, but Mrs. Huayang has no son. Among your more than twenty brothers, Zi is the eldest son, who has the conditions to inherit the State of Qin and is assisted by a scholar. You were in the middle, neglected, and held hostage for a long time. If the prince becomes the king of Qin, it will be difficult for you to win the position of heir. " The stranger said, "What shall we do? Lv Buwei said: "Only Mrs. Huayang can establish a direct heir." . Although Lv Buwei is not rich, I am willing to spend my daughter lobbying for you in the west to make you an heir. "The stranger said," If you can realize your plan, I'd like to divide the State of Qin and share it with you. "

Sean is a master.

From Historical Records Living in Hou Shijia

Sean often travels abroad, visiting sages for advice. One day, he walked to a bridge and saw an old man sitting on it.

The old man put one leg on the other and kept shaking his toes around his shoes. Sean was amused, so he gave him a few more looks. When the old man saw Sean looking at himself, he suddenly raised his feet and threw his shoes under the bridge. The old man said to Sean, "Hello! You pick up my shoes! " Sean was very unhappy when he heard these words, but when he saw that the old man's beard and hair were white, he felt sorry for him. He held back his temper and picked up his shoes and gave them to the old man. But the old man stretched his foot forward again and said, "Put it on for me." Sean suppressed his temper, and then squatted down to put on the shoes for the old man. The old man smiled, stood up slowly and walked away without saying anything. Zhang looked at the old man's back and felt very strange. Just as he turned to leave, the old man came back and said to him, "You are a very good little guy. I am willing to teach you some skills. Wait for me here in the morning in five days. " Sean quickly agreed. On the fifth morning, as soon as he got on the bridge, he found the old man standing on the bridge. The old man said angrily, "how can you let my old man wait for you?" That's no use. If you want to learn, wait five days! " Five days later, when Sean heard the cock crow, he got up and walked to the bridge, but the old man arrived first. He had to admit his mistake. The old man glared at him and said, "If you really want to learn, come back in five days." Come on, let's go. Looking forward to the fourth day, in the evening, Sean didn't even sleep, so he waited for midnight on the bridge. After a while, the old man came step by step. Jane Zhang stepped forward and saw the ceremony.

The old man said happily, "Young people have to do this if they want to learn technology!" The old man took out a scroll of art books from his arms and handed it to Sean, saying, "If you study this book well, you will definitely achieve something in the future." Sean took the book, thanked it, and wanted to ask something. The old man turned around and walked quickly without looking back. From then on, Sean devoted himself to the study of Sun Tzu's Art of War and eventually became a famous strategist.

In 27 1 year BC, Zhao She was the tax collector of Zhao at that time. In Handan, the capital of Zhao State, Wang Zhao's younger brother Ping Yuanjun opened nine big stores, which were run by nine officials. These nine government officials fought for power and profits, evaded taxes and evaded taxes, refused to pay state taxes, and injured tax collectors who went to collect taxes. When Zhao She heard about this incident, in order to safeguard the dignity of the tax law, he risked being killed and dismissed from office, and decisively killed the nine housekeepers according to the laws at that time.

Now Ping Yuanjun was angered. He angrily retaliated against Zhao She and threatened to kill Zhao She. Zhao She argued calmly, "You are a respected dignitary in Zhao. If your family flouts the tax law, the power of national laws will be weakened; " When the power of national laws is weakened, the power of the state is weakened; If the national strength is weakened, then other countries on the border will be eager to invade our country. At that time, what wealth did you have without Zhao? With your position in Ping Yuanjun, if you can abide by the law, you can unite up and down, up and down, the country can be strong, the country can be strong, and the political power can be stable. "

Ping Yuanjun was deeply moved by Zhao She's righteous words. Suddenly, his anger disappeared. He was very ashamed and left quietly.

Zhao She's justice in law enforcement, without favoritism, soon enriched Zhao's finances, making the country prosperous and the people safe. Zhao also became one of the seven outstanding figures in the bonfire era in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period from a country that was not very rich.

Gongyi refused to fish.

Out of the "Historical Records Biography of Officials"

Gong Yixiu was photographed in Shandong. This Gong Yixiu's biggest hobby in diet is eating fish. One day, someone gave him a fish he liked. According to people's "understanding" now, an open-minded country accepts a fish and lets people take it directly to the kitchen, which is nothing. However, to our surprise, his old man firmly opposed it. His disciples advised him that your old man's favorite food is fish. Since someone delivered it to your door, why don't you want it instead? Gong Yixiu explained: "It is precisely because I like to eat fish that I resolutely refuse to accept this fish. You see, if I accept this fish today, I will lose my appearance one day. Although I like eating fish, I can no longer buy fish on my own salary. If I don't accept this fish and keep my appearance, I can buy fish with my salary for a long time. "
