9. Reading History Can Be Enlightened
"What's so strange about that?" A grandfather waved his fan and said emotionally," According to the Chinese civilization's inheritance model, dragons and phoenixes give birth to each other. Let's look at the history of China-"
The first type was that the father was a hero and the son was a hero. As the saying went, a tiger father would not have a dog son. Of course, this was just flattery. However, children who grew up in successful families undoubtedly started earlier than ordinary farmers in terms of personal cultivation and knowledge. The social circle of the father, the glorious history of the father, and the strict family precepts of the father would all have a subtle guiding influence on the children and grandchildren. Here are a few examples:
1. The Sun Family of the Eastern Wu of the Three Kingdoms
Laozi was a famous tiger general at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Dong Zhuo, the Western Liang warlord, was beaten up by Sun Jian's tens of thousands of troops and was also frightened. It was even more rare for Sun Jian to be so chivalrous and righteous. He could be called a loyal and upright man. The eldest son was even more ferocious. He started out as a lone army of thousands when the heroes rose up together. He was able to open up the six counties of Jiangdong and had the ambition to annex the world. Although the youngest son inherited his father and brother's business, it was easy to fight for the country but difficult to defend it. His courage and strategy were even better than his father and brother. No wonder Aman sighed with emotion that his son should be like Sun Zhongmou.
2. Cao Wei and his son in the Three Kingdoms
Cao Cao was a capable minister of governing the country and a treacherous hero in troubled times. Luo Guanzhong's style of "praising Liu and belittling Cao" could not conceal his achievements in history. The Three Kingdoms fever had pushed Cao Cao to the cusp of the storm. Business elites, military officers, and even political leaders all admired Cao Cao and looked forward to seeing his true colors. His sons were also fierce. Cao Pi had been an emperor before, and he had done a good job. The dissolute Cao Zhi was almost on par with his father in terms of literary attainments. Helplessly, Sima Yi's two sons were even fiercer and unified the three kingdoms. From then on, the Sima Clan became the most prominent clan in the Jin Dynasty. He didn't want to have so many heroes of the Three Kingdoms, but the Three Kingdoms were really full of heroes. There were also many fathers and sons who were famous during the Three Kingdoms period, such as Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Wen Qin, Wen Yuan, Zhu Zhi, Zhu Ran, Chen Qun, Chen Tai, Zhong Yao, Zhong Hui, Lu Xun, Lu Kang, Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Ke, Guan Yu, Guan Ping, and so on. It seemed that the true colors of a hero could only be revealed when the sea was turbulent.
3. father and son soldiers
Wang Jian, Wang Ben
His father was the famous hero who destroyed Zhao and Chu. He opened the door to Qin Shihuang's unification of the six countries. His son was also a hero. He destroyed Wei, Ping, and Yan, and completely cleaned up the six countries. The great cause of Qin Shihuang's unification of the world was basically done by this father and son.
Xue Rengui, Xue Ne
Xue Rengui was the kind of fierce general who charged into the battlefield. He had experienced the two dynasties of Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty. He conquered Koryo, defeated Huihe, resisted Tubo, and attacked Turks. He had made many outstanding achievements. His archery skills were exquisite and could penetrate five layers of armor. He even had the legend of three arrows settling Tianshan. Xue Ne had been through Zhongzong, Ruizong, Wuzhou, and Xuanzong dynasties. His martial arts were not as powerful as Laozi, but his ability to lead an army was better than Laozi. He defeated Tubo, resisted Khitan, and Xi, and ensured the peace of the border for more than 20 years. It was recorded in history that he was " calm, brave, and taciturn. He grew stronger in the face of enemies ". He indeed had the demeanor of a famous general.
Yang Ye, Yang Yanzhao
Have you heard of the Yang family? There was no Matriarch She, but the reputation of the Yang family generals was built by the father and son Yang Ye and Yang Yanzhao. Although they didn't have the illustrious military achievements in the novels, among the generals of the Northern Song Dynasty, Yang Ye fought a bloody battle in the Chen Clan Valley and Yang Yanzhao skillfully built an ice city. It was enough to deserve the title of famous general. If the Imperial Court had been a little tougher and had fewer treacherous officials, the Yang family's name would have been passed down through the ages.
Yue Fei, Yue Yun
The Southern Song Yue Fei father and son were also loyal to their country, and their fame spread far and wide. Yue Fei captured Yang Yao, defeated the puppet Qi, recovered the six prefectures of Xiangyang, and then defeated the main force of the Jin army in Ruicheng and Yingchang, achieving the most glorious victory of the Southern Song Dynasty against the Jin army. Yue Yun had joined the army since he was young, and under Yue Fei's supervision, he became a fierce general in the Yue Family Army who charged into the enemy's lines. He had even displayed his might in the battle of Ying Chang.
Li Guang, Li Gan
Although Laozi did not win many battles, his reputation was too great. The famous Flying General, coupled with Li Guang's difficult encounter, provided endless fantasies for future generations of literati. His son was also as brave and good at fighting as his father. Although he could not take charge of a region alone, he had followed Wei Qing and Huo Qubing on several expeditions as a senior colonel and had made great contributions. Unfortunately, they all did not end well.
The Huo Brothers of Western Han
Huo Qubing was an outstanding military strategist and commander of the Western Han Dynasty. The son of Wei Shaoer, the sister of the Great General Wei Qing, and Wei Qing's nephew. He served as the general of the hussars and was granted the title of champion marquis. He and Wei Qing were both Sima. Feng Lang Juxu was born from this general.
Huo Guang, Huo Qubing's half-brother, was a powerful official in the middle of the Western Han Dynasty (206 B.C. -8 A.D.). After Huo Qubing's death, he was promoted to the rank of Commander of the Chariots and Doctor of Guanglu. Huo Guang was prudent in his work and was deeply appreciated by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. In 87 B.C., when he was critically ill, he appointed the eight-year-old Fuling as the Crown Prince. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty appointed Huo Guang as the Great Sima General, and he assisted the Young Lord with Shangguan Jie, Sang Hongyang, and others.
Li Sheng, Li Su (Shuo)
Laozi had made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty's Zong Ping Qiang and Tubo border troubles, and to Tang Dezong's suppression of the rebellion of the four towns. In the end, he also served as the military governor of the four towns. He was an extremely powerful official and could be called a famous general of his generation. His son did not fight many battles, but his attack on Caizhou on a snowy night and the overnight pacification of Huaixi had set a classic example of an attack in the history of the Chinese Dynasty. It was enough to make his name known in history. One battle had made him much more famous than his father, who had been through hundreds of battles.
4. Li Yuan and his son in the Sui and Tang Dynasties
Li Yuan was a native of Chengji. Later, he raised an army in Taiyuan and was named Lord of Tang Dynasty. He is the grandson of Li Hu and the son of Li Bing. Li Hu was the Duke of Longxi of the Northern and Southern Wei Dynasties, and Li Bing was the Duke of Tang of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Li Yuan's wife, Dou, was the niece of the Northern Zhou ruler. He once defeated the rebels in Longmen Town, fired seventy-two arrows and killed seventy-two people. His fame is well known far and near. The King of Qin, Li Shimin, was even more talented. It was not difficult to attack the city and take down the stronghold. The key was to win over the hearts of the people and have as many fierce generals as clouds. The generals of the Marquis Lingyan Pavilion were all dead set on Tang Taizong, sacrificing their lives to repay his kindness.
5. Li Keyong and his son in the Tang Dynasty
Li Keyong (856 - 908 AD) was known as the King of Jin when he was alive. When his son Li Cunxu founded the Later Tang Dynasty, he was honored as the Later Tang Dynasty. He is brave and impatient. General at the end of Tang Dynasty. Shatuo tribe. Her nickname was Li Ya 'er. Because he was blind in one eye, he was also known as "One-eyed Dragon". Later, it developed into the only force that could compete with Zhu Wen, the great vassal of the Central Plains. The feud between the two vassals continued to the next generation, and their descendants fought endlessly in the name of the Later Liang and Later Tang Dynasties.
Emperor Zhuangzong Guang Sheng Sheng Min Xiao, Li Cunxu (885 - 926 AD), Yingzhou people, nickname Yazi, Li Keyong's eldest son. Since childhood, he liked riding and archery. He was brave and loved by Li Keyong. Before Li Keyong died, he gave Li Cunxu three arrows and told him to complete three important tasks: One was to crusade against Liu Rengong (Liu Shouguang) and conquer Youzhou (now Beijing); The second was to conquer the Khitans and remove the threat at the northern border. The third important task was to eliminate his mortal enemy, Zhu Quanzhong. He worshiped the three arrows in his temple. Every time he went out to war, he would send someone to fetch them and put them in a refined silk sheath. He would bring them into battle. After winning a battle, he would send them back to his temple to show that he had completed his mission. In 911 AD, Li Cunxu defeated an army of 500,000 led by Zhu Quanzhong in Gaoyi County, Hebei Province. Then, they broke through Yan and captured Liu Rengong alive back to Taiyuan. Nine years later, he defeated the Khitan army and drove Yelu Abao Ji back to the north. After more than ten years of war, Li Cunli basically completed his father's last wish. In 923 AD, he conquered the Later Liang Dynasty and unified the north. In April, he proclaimed himself emperor in Weizhou (west of Daming County, Hebei Province). The name of the country was Tang. Soon after, he moved his capital to Luoyang. The year title was "Tongguang" and history called it the Later Tang Dynasty.
Li Cunxiao was a valiant general under Li Keyong, the King of Jin. He was also one of Li Keyong's many "righteous sons". As he was ranked thirteenth, he was called the "Thirteen Grand Guardians". He was also the most famous of the Thirteen Grand Guardians. Among them, Li Cunxiao was the most powerful. He was brave in the army and won every battle. Because of his meritorious service, he was awarded the Flying Tiger General. The ancients said,"The king is no tyrant, and the general is no Li!"”The overlord referred to Xiang Yu, the overlord of West Chu, and the general referred to Li Cunxiao. Li Cunxiao (? 894 years), on behalf of the state flying fox (now Hebei Laiyuan) people. His real name is An Jingsi. Five generations of history. It is recorded in the Biography of Li Cunxiao that he is brave and brave, often leading the cavalry as the vanguard, and has never been defeated. He followed Li Keyong to rescue Chen and Xu, drove away the Yellow River bandits, and was killed in Shangyuan. Every battle was won. Unfortunately, in the end, there was a grudge between father and son, and he was finally torn apart in the market.
6. Murong Family of Yan Country
This was a piece of history and glory that was easily overlooked by everyone. In the fifth year of Xiankang (the sixth year of the former Yan Dynasty, 339 years), Murong attacked Goguryeo and attacked Xincheng. King Zhao of Goguryeo asked for an alliance and returned. He also sent Murong Ba and Murong Ke (four sons of Murong) to attack Yuwen Biebu. At that time, Murong Chui was only thirteen years old, but he was brave enough to win the three armies. Murong Chui's original name was Murong Ba. He had been a dignified person since he was young. He was seven feet seven inches tall and his hands hung down to his knees.”His father, Murong Chi, thought highly of him and named him Ba.”The fourth brother, Murong Ke, was Murong Chui's idol. The two of them had worked together to conquer the south and the north, and they had never been defeated. Murong Ke was "cautious and kind when he was young, deep and magnanimous." Because his mother was not favored, she was not noticed by Murong He. When Murong Ke was fifteen years old, he was "eight feet and seven inches tall, handsome and heroic. Every time he talked about it, he would manage the affairs of the world. He was surprised and gave him a weapon." He once used 2,000 cavalry to attack 100,000 Zhao King Shi Hu, attacked Maqiu, destroyed Yuwen, conquered Gaoli and pacified Fuyu, and fought with Yan and Zhao for "Chain Horse" Zhike Ran Min. Benevolence is the foundation, and the army is governed by humanity. He was as modest as the Duke of Zhou. The glory of the former Yan Dynasty was the credit of Murong Ke and Murong Chui brothers. As for Murong Fu, one of Master Jin Yong's Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragons, he had always taken it as his duty to revive the Great Yan Empire. He had abandoned Wang Yuyan's infatuation with him and killed his confidant who had followed him for many years. He had taken a thief as his father, betrayed his friends for glory, shifted the blame on others, secretly learned from others, and even betrayed himself to fight for the position of the Prince Consort of the Western Xia Dynasty. However, looking at the essence through the phenomenon, it was the spirit of never admitting defeat that flowed in the Murong family. Their dedication to their ideals was really far beyond anyone's reach.
7. The rule of Wen and Jing
After that, there was also the prosperous era of the Kangxi and Qianlong Dynasties. Because of the flood of historical dramas in the Qing Dynasty, everyone knew very well about Qianlong's illegitimate daughter. Needless to say, the rule of Wen and Jing here was a representative. The few of them did a good job as emperors. They were conscientious and conscientious, sharing the worries of the people. During the forty years of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing of the Western Han Dynasty, politics was stable and economic production developed significantly. It had always been regarded as the "golden age" of feudal society and was known as the "rule of Wen and Jing." Liu Heng, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty (203 - 157 B.C.), was the son of Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. His mother was Bo Ji. In the 11th year of Emperor Gao (196 years ago), he was granted the title of King Dai. In 180 B.C., Empress Lu died and the Lus rebelled. Prime Minister Chen Ping, Marshal Zhou Bo, Marquis Zhu Xu Liu Zhang and other imperial clan ministers jointly killed the Lus and welcomed Liu Heng as emperor. He reigned for twenty-three years. Liu Qi, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty (189 - 141 B.C.), was the crown prince of Emperor Wen, and his mother was Empress Dou. He ascended the throne in 157 B.C. and reigned for sixteen years. After the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu, Emperor Hui, and Empress Lu all focused on restoring agricultural production and stabilizing the feudal ruling order, and achieved remarkable results. After Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing ascended the throne one after another, they further adopted the measures of reducing corvee and taxes to rest with the people. The Wen and Jing generations did not easily send troops to the surrounding minority tribes, trying their best to maintain a peaceful relationship. He inherited and developed the career of his father, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, and created the "rule of Wen and Jing" with his father. It also laid the foundation for his son Liu Che's "Han Emperor's Prosperous Age", completing the transition from Emperor Wen to Emperor Wu. Then, how did Emperor Jing develop the favorable situation and eliminate the unfavorable factors, allowing the Darkhan Dynasty to reach a prosperous and powerful state? From the four aspects of the kings, the Xiongnu, politics, and the crown prince, he explained and explained. To the kings: successfully quell the rebellion and stabilize the imperial power. To the Xiongnu: more peace, less war, ready to go. In politics, he is quiet, respectful and thrifty. As for the heir, he chose a good successor. The early phase of the Western Han Dynasty was definitely one of the most glorious and harmonious eras in ancient Chinese history. It was inseparable from the hard work of the Liu family.
There were also many examples of father and son fighting. Of course, this type of father and son isn't limited to biological father and son. They can also be biological brothers or adopted father and son. However, the reason why I classified them as one type is mainly to explain the relationship between the quality of the son and the living environment of the father. There was a pair of father and son, Guo Wei and Chai Rong, the later Zhou Dynasty's Shizong. Their historical achievements could not be explained. General Chai was someone that even Zhao Kuangyin, a formidable man, admired. Who wouldn't love Brother Zhao's favorite? A grandfather added,
Of course, most of them were heroes and bears, and their children didn't feel any heartache when they sold their father's land. Under the protection of the power of their parents, their children and grandchildren lived a luxurious life. They did not think of making progress, but only wanted to enjoy themselves and lived a mediocre life. Compared to his father's Qianqiu Bingye, he was undoubtedly a laughing stock for future generations.
1. The second generation of the Qin Dynasty ended
Qin Shihuang's "Ten Thousand Years of Eternal Life" was easily broken by his son. If there was a spirit underneath, what would he think? Qin Shi Huang had created a great cause and achieved great fame. It was a pity that he had such a disappointing son. Hu Hai attempted to seize the throne by altering the edict. After he took the throne, he was fatuous, incompetent, dissolute, and cruel. Later, he caused wars all over the country. After his death, he was hurriedly buried in the territory of the Du State of Zhou as a civilian. Huhai once knelt down and begged," I'm willing to be the king of a county,"" I'm willing to be the marquis of ten thousand households,"" I'm willing to be the common people with my wife," but he was rejected. Huhai had no choice but to commit suicide at the age of 23. Even today, the short-lived Qin Dynasty still caused people to sigh and fantasize.
2. Liu Bei and Liu Chan
Compared to the historical figures, Liu Bei wasn't a very famous hero. The reason why they were included was because Liu Chan was too famous. He was extremely muddle-headed. A sentence like " Why do you miss Shu when you are happy here?" described all the ugliness of a subjugated monarch who had lost his territory and lived under someone else's roof. It was this guy who caused Zhuge Liang to fail on the verge of success when he was close to winning six times in the Qishan Northern Expedition. After Zhuge Liang and the other virtuous ministers passed away, Liu Chan was unable to control the state affairs. Eunuch Huang Hao began to monopolize power, and Shu gradually declined. Later, Wei attacked Shu on a large scale. Liu Chan surrendered and moved his family to Luoyang. He was granted the title of Duke of Anle County. Cao Aman had such a good son, but he still lamented that his son was like Sun Zhongmou. In comparison, Brother Liu Bei's feigning to fight in exchange for the loyalty of the soldiers was too much.
Father-in-law Jia Sidao, son-in-law Fan Wenhu
It was a little far-fetched to mention these two characters in this story, but these two people really made people angry. Jia Sidao, the treacherous prime minister, was as famous as Qin Hui. He caused the Southern Song Dynasty to be in a foul mood and the people were in dire straits. A son-in-law was even more ferocious. It was not rare for a defeated person to harm an entire dynasty, but it was rare to harm two dynasties. The general Fan Wenhu, who came from the Song Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty, was such a rare thing. Yuan Kublai Lie, who swept across the world, would never have dreamed that this high-ranking general of the Southern Song Dynasty, who had rebelled on the line of fire, was actually a failure. The end of the Southern Song Dynasty was an era of corrupt government. The military generals of the Southern Song Dynasty were naturally mixed with good and bad. There were loyal but incompetent, and there were capable but morally corrupt. However, if General Fan could be considered second, no one would dare to be first. Once the Wen Hu appeared, no one in the world could compete with him.
4. Sima Clan of Eastern Jin Dynasty
There weren't many families that could be selected for both Laozi Hero and Laozi Hero and Laozi Bastard. Sima Qia was one of them. Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of Jin, was the eldest son of Sima Zhao. He himself inherited the foundation of Sima Yi, Sima Shi and Sima Zhao, but he was not a wise monarch. He abolished the armed forces of the prefectures and counties, wantonly enfeoffed the imperial clan, allowed the kings to choose their own officials and judges to set up troops, and could not deal with the problem of ethnic minorities moving inward, which planted the reasons for the rebellion of the Eight Kings and the rebellion of Yongjia in the future. The problem of establishing a crown prince was even more crazy. He knew that his son could not do it, but he still carried it out and ruined the great territory of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Sima Zhong, reigned from 290 to 306. The word is degree. Hanoi Wen County (now Henan Wen County West) people. The second son of Emperor Wu of Jin. In the third year of Taishi (267), he was appointed Crown Prince. In the first year of Taixi (290), he succeeded to the throne and changed the year title to Yongxi. Yang Jun, the tutor, assisted the government at the beginning. Empress Jia killed Yang Jun and gained power. During the rebellion of the eight kings, Sima Lun, the king of Zhao, usurped the throne and made him the emperor and imprisoned him in Jin Yong City. Later, he was held hostage by the kings and treated like a puppet, suffering humiliation. In the first year of Guangxi (306), Sima Yue, King of Donghai, welcomed him back to Luoyang. Legend has it that Sima Yue poisoned him to death. Empress Jia interfered in the government and did whatever she wanted. (I don't know why the Jia family produced so many famous empresses.。）One year, there was a famine. The common people had no food to eat, and there were people starving to death everywhere. Someone reported the situation to Emperor Hui of Jin, but Emperor Hui said to the reporter,[If you don't have anything to eat, why don't you eat meat porridge?」When the person who reported heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The disaster victims couldn't even eat, so where would they get meat porridge? From this, one could see how foolish and muddle-headed Emperor Hui of Jin was.
There were definitely too many to count. Reading history makes people wise. Reading history made me understand one thing: How happy it was to have a good son. A son should be like Sun Zhongmou, not like a fool who doesn't miss Shu. Another grandpa commented,
For the time being, regardless of whether there was a difference in bloodline, it was clear that ordinary people could also fly out of Wang Xie Tang. There were generals among the cripples, and there were fools among the princes. Whether it was the nobles or the old folks in the countryside, they all hoped that their children would become successful and complete their unfinished business to bring glory to their families. There were countless examples of successful people who came from humble backgrounds and eventually became great figures. Here, I would like to talk about the question of what a hero's son was. To sum up, we must break the theory of bloodline and divide it into two. Children did not live up to expectations, and adults hated iron for not being able to live up to expectations. However, there were many people in real life. This was especially true for the rich second generation and the children of the second generation of officials. Not only were most of them not heroes, but they were also a bunch of good-for-nothings and hooligans. What was the reason? Wasn't it just that they were rich, powerful, and influential?
Did having money, power, and influence mean that one could do whatever they wanted? Of course not. However, why did someone dare to commit all kinds of ridiculous mistakes without any scruples because of his wealth, power, and influence?
The reason was very simple. This was because the laws of the Celestial Empire were only targeted at the toiling masses. As for the corrupt, the rich, and the children of the second generation of officials, there was another set of so-called " hidden rules," a set of extra-legal enforcement systems. Under the laws of the Celestial Empire, there was a formless and shadowless system that provided money, power, and influence to avoid supervision and punishment. Otherwise, why would those corrupt people, rich second-generation heirs, and second-generation government officials be so rampant! " So you're in big trouble, young lady?" The grandfathers were worried about the young lady. "It's all my fault-I'll tell the headmaster everything.”"You?" The girl said,"I'm just like you. I'm also a new student at Golden Eagle School." I'm Zhang Xia-"" So we're all on the same path-I'm Xuemei.”" Then why aren't you leaving? Future chief," Teacher Xu said jokingly, borrowing the words of the villagers. As she called out to everyone," As for today, don't worry. Fortunately, it didn't cause any major problems. Just treat it as giving him a political lesson."”Xuemei was still thinking,"Why did the principal find such a disappointing godson?"
