History view of the world

1. Those who are close to red are red

Emperor Zhenzong of Song sent 7-year-old Yan Shu to accompany the prince to study, and some officials had objected. Emperor Zhenzong of Song said: "Yan Shu is a talented person, but he is a hard-working child. Such a child will not play freely when he is placed there. I think that he will encourage each other and improve together." Facts are better than words. Yan Shu's upright character and hard-working spirit deeply influenced the prince, that is, the later Emperor Renzong. After Emperor Renzong took over the throne, he appointed Yan Shu as prime minister.

2. Learning from the past

In 1588, the Spanish "Invincible Fleet" which had strong strength, advanced weapons and had an absolute advantage started a naval battle with the British fleet. Unfortunately, the ship was attacked by the Atlantic storm, and the ship was destroyed and people were killed. Only 43 broken ships were left to return to Spain, and the sea overlord became yesterday.

In 1812, Napoleon led an army of 60,000 to advance into Russia and launched a large-scale attack. Unexpectedly, the temperature in Moscow suddenly dropped to minus 4 degrees Celsius, and most of the people were frozen to death. In the end, only 150,000 soldiers staggered home.

In September 1941, Hitler was ready to move and led a large army to launch a "typhoon" operation against Moscow. Unexpectedly, he suffered frostbite from minus 30 degrees Celsius temperature again. From then on, it marked the complete bankruptcy of Hitler's blitzkrieg.

There are countless similar battle situations in history. Who said that the sky has no eyes? Invasion always has no good ending.

3. Jealous rumors on the road to entrepreneurship in storms

Su Shi was praised by Empress Dowager Renzong at a young age: he found materials for his descendants to be prime minister. Those who covet the position of prime minister could not sleep all night and tried all their tricks to finally kick the "stumbling block" in their career to Hainan Island. Unfortunately, they couldn't kick the "Complete Works of Su Dongpo" in their career.

Lin Zexu was a meritorious in banning smoking, but was falsely slandered, dismissed, and exiled. However, Lin Zexu's patriotic ambition was not destroyed because of exile. Today, there are seven statues of Lin Zexu in the world. Three of them are in Xinjiang, one is displayed in the London Statue Museum, and together with world celebrities, they are for the world to admire. Lin Zexu Square and its statues are built in New York, USA.

Are the old man of history forgetfulness? The by-product of God's creation of mankind - the rumor's name, which was forgotten.

4. The dialogue between God and his subjects

In the eyes of others, it is a bad thing to God's ministers, but it all turns into a good thing when they come to God. God said, "I can't treat any good person badly." God also said, "There are too many bad people in the world, and one person can't be busy, so I have to be with good people." The minister said, "Since that's the case, if you control the bad people, will the world be peaceful?" God said, "Oh, I'm just blaming me for a moment. I didn't expect that people will become bad. When I think about it, the bad people have already reborn in geometric numbers. I'm really too busy to get busy. Let them get bad. I've already set the result. Will it be completely rotten in the end?" The minister said, "If the bad people rebel and usurp your position, can you deal with it?" God said, "The bad people can only do bad things in the world. They don't have the ability to go to heaven. All the bad people go to hell."

5. The only way to rise, fall, fall

"99% effort and 1% inspiration are not enough for success. You must also have 2OO% moral quality as a guarantee." -Roman Rolland

The classic quotes of Roman Rolland are sonorous and powerful, and the sound of the earth is endless for three days. Why do some people climb to a high position but cannot sit firmly, fall into the abyss, and sink into a land that is endless? Why do some people work hard all their lives, soaring up to the sky, and bringing a lifetime of grace, and shining brightly on the world? Think carefully and look slowly, everything in the world has its own cause and condition. Ups and downs and downs, moral quality is the only way to go, and leverage balance. Moral quality determines a person's weight.

6. Those who fear the law will be happy

Taizu of the Ming Dynasty asked his ministers, "Who is happy in the world?" The ministers said differently. Some said they had achieved success and fame, some said they were named on the Golden List, and some were rich in the world. Taizu sighed without saying a word. Suddenly, a man named Wan Gang, who had an unusual view. He said this: "Those who fear the law will be happy!"

Once this statement was said, Taizong smiled on his face. He praised his extraordinary words and could take on great responsibilities. Looking at the history books of the world, what good end could those who dare to test the Dharma with their own body?

7. Don't say it's my son

Molière, the author of "The Hypocrite", was born in a very famous family in Paris. His father was a royal furnishing dealer. Molière, who grew up in a famous family, did not care about that reputation at all, but fell in love with the career of actors in France in the 17th century that only children from poor families could do. He wanted to be an actor, which made his father so angry. His father introduced him two very profitable errands with his reputation, and he was not interested at all: one was that he was not interested in making money, and the other was that he was very disgusted with intrigues in the officialdom.

My father asked him what he liked to do. Molière said firmly: "I want to act."

"What? Say it again!" My father thought he had heard it wrong.

"I want to be an actor and organize my own theater troupe," Molière repeated.

"You really don't seek to be motivated. You have found such a good job for you and you insist on being an actor. If you are obsessed with it, get out of the house in the future, let alone my son!"

Molière was really ambitious. In order to stick to his ideals, Molière really walked out of the house. After he made a lot of adventures in society, he had a broad and in-depth understanding of the real life situation of all classes in France, and collected many folk legends, proverbs, folk songs, etc., laying a solid foundation for his future creation. While acting, he wrote scripts. He studied and learned from others humbly. God rewarded hard work, and he successively created excellent drama works such as "the Hypocrite", "The Hate of the World", and "The Silly Guard", which are known as the "founder of European classical drama."

8. Shoot your own feet

Nero's mother, known as the "devil", was the niece of the Roman emperor. She was a woman with great power and relied on her own beauty to become the queen. The drunkard did not have this intention, and she had greater desires. Agrituria encouraged the old emperor to depose the prince and make her son Nero the prince, and then colluded with the guards to poison the old emperor to death, pushing Nero, who was only 17 years old, to the throne of the emperor. She thought that this would be possible to manipulate everything.

Poor that she was smart and confused for a lifetime, and her wishful thinking was gone. She ruined her "broad future" because of an angry word. She had an quarrel with her son for interfering in her son's private life. She said angrily: "I can make you the emperor, and you can make your brother the emperor!"

After that, as soon as he said his anger, Nero dissolved into a murderous monster. In order to eliminate future troubles, Nero ordered his brother to be executed secretly, then he attacked his mother, and then sent someone to kill his teacher and wife. From then on, no one could control him. He began to live a debauchery and shameless life all day long.

Having been tired of being a shameless life, his spirit became extremely empty. In order to seek greater stimulation, Nero did an action that no one expected: burned the city of Rome. 10 districts of 14 districts of Rome were lit with raging fire. The Romans were so scared that they cried and shouted, and they all fled, thinking that the end of the world was coming.

The end of the world has not come, but Nero's end of the world has come. Don't think that you can be lawless if you are an emperor. The patience of the people is limited. In 68 AD, the oppressed Romans rose up to resist and wanted to cut the murderous demon into pieces. Nero, who was betrayed by his relatives, escaped from the city of Rome and ended his cruel life in a villa in the suburbs. Evil will be punished, so you must believe it. When the time comes, everything will be rewarded.

9. Alexander

Travel lightly

In 334 BC, Alexander led 35,000 troops and 160 warships to expedition to Persia. Before leaving, he distributed all his property to his soldiers. This feat is still an example among the emperors of ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad. He understood the idea of ​​leaving behind and traveling lightly.

The soldiers asked him to share his property with them, what he left behind himself, and Alexander said, "Hope! I leave my hope to myself, it will bring me endless wealth!"

This can be said to be the eternal masterpiece left to the world by those who do great things. How many people are unable to let go because they can't let go because they value everything too much; How many people are unable to let go because they can't see hope, and how many people are full of confusion and melancholy because they give up hope and are satisfied with holding on to the inseparable. Hope requires choice, and choice requires courage. Alexander gave up what he should give up and reaped what he can reap. Be willing, give up, Alexander really gave up.

Inclusive

Another great advantage of Alexander is reflected in his attitude towards different cultures. He neither burns books and burys scholars nor is he solemnly arrogant. Instead, he can correct his mistakes in a timely manner and be inclusive.

Alexander always loved Greek culture. Before the expedition, he believed that only Greek culture was the best in the world. After coming into contact with Eastern culture during the Eastern Expedition, he began to be deeply attracted by its wisdom and creativity. Therefore, while spreading Greek culture, he also respected the culture of other regions. This is also an amazing progress and can also be regarded as another great contribution of his to the World Cultural Exhibition.

God doesn't like ambition

While we are learning about Alexander the Great's determination and ambition, there is no need to learn about his ambition to conquer the world. When the Eastern Expedition is about to end, he could have restrained his ambitions, but he did not. He wanted to be the king of Asia and even the world, the king of kings, but he died unexpectedly and ended up with the regret of death young. God did not fulfill him. It can be seen that God does not like to have too much ambitions. Because too much ambitions will harm the people.

1o. Pericle's grandeur

When Pericle, a famous Athenian politician, came to power, Athens reached its peak. The reason for the emergence of the "Pericle Era" was inseparable from his personal charm. Pericle often went deep into the people to have cordial conversations with them and listened widely to the public. When people who disagree with him were insulted in public, he was not angry or arrested.

One afternoon, a nobleman followed him and insulted him, cursing until dark, and he couldn't see his fingers. Pericles asked his servant to hold a torch to send the noble home. What does it mean to be able to hold a boat in the prime minister's belly, and what does it mean to be generous and generous to others? Perhaps that's it. Pericles is really amazing!

11. The enlightenment given to us by Guangwu ZTE

After the nationwide pacification, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu took a series of measures to govern the country and ensure national stability, unified the state power, stabilized the lives of the people, promoted economic development, and promoted social stability. This historical period was called the "Guangwu Restoration".

We can understand several successful revelations from it. First, the policy of not using rewards to meritorious officials reflects the human side of Liu Xiu. Although it is inferior to those who are good at using meritorious officials, it is much more merciful than those who kill meritorious officials. Second, it effectively reduces the burden on the people and creates a relaxed social environment for the people. Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world, and Liu Xiu does not do badly. Third, set up schools to educate the people, correct customs, advocate frugality, elimination of redundant officials, and reduce administrative expenses. Fourth, solve the land problem, so that the people and land can be combined to facilitate social production. Land is the foundation of the people. Fifth, the officials who invade and disturb the people will never be ruthless once they are verified, and they will not protect their shortcomings. Sixth, the criteria for choosing officials are noble moral character, honest ambition, familiar with laws and regulations, and act in accordance with the law. Second, it is talented, conscious and courageous. It is also regularly assessed and selected the best and survived.

It was this series of measures that led to the emergence of a group of loyal and upright officials in the early years of the founding of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Emperor Guangwu's qualities of being kind, frugal, loving the people, valuing virtue, and strict law were a valuable spiritual wealth he left to history. From a family to a nation, with these qualities, there will be an inexhaustible driving force for prosperity.

12. People who can influence the world without going abroad

Lao Tzu, Zhuangzi, and Confucius, don’t know if they have ever been abroad, but they don’t think they have ever been there. At most, they have traveled around the country. It doesn’t matter whether they go abroad or not. What’s important is that they will never dream of their spiritual products still affecting the lives of the people in the world.

Confucius Institute is a well-known spiritual product. In the Tao Te Ching, Wu Qingyuan once used it to defeat the top Japanese chess world in Japan and promoted the immortality of the Chinese nation's spiritual culture. The oriental philosopher Hideki Yukawa, who was strolling in the "nuclear world", loved the Chinese nation's Laozi and Zhuang philosophy all his life. He organically combined the traditional methodology of the East with natural science to create amazing achievements. Hideki Yukawa once said: "The reason why I regard Zhuangzi as a topic of my life is that Zhuangzi had already seen the incredible feeling of the modern human condition as a 23 o'clock years ago." He proudly admitted that Zhuangzi's philosophy played a role in establishing his personality as a scientist.

13. Is the Phoenix Nirvana

The Shang Dynasty, which ruled for 60 years, collapsed in an instant under the pressure of King Wu's army. King Zhou inhumanely killed his uncle Bigan who advised him. He felt that it was not cruel enough to kill him, and even asked people to cut open Bigan's heart to see what color it was. God could not bear it anymore and could not let King Zhou go. So there was a famous Battle of Muye in history, which was defeated by the few.

The Battle of Muye made King Zhou run around. King Wu of Zhou had less than 50,000 troops, while King Zhou of Shang temporarily put together as many as 170,000. The Shang army, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, failed to get any advantage. Perhaps he had already taken advantage of it on weekdays and had no advantage to take advantage.

14. Whoever owns the people will own the world.

Half of the 170,000 Shang troops were temporarily armed slaves and prisoners captured from the Dongyi. They had been oppressed and abused by King Zhou on weekdays and had long hated Zhou. Not only did they not want to work hard for King Zhou, they also turned their attention and turned against each other. A large number of slaves cooperated with the Zhou army to attack the Shang army.

The Shang army was defeated and the army was defeated. Seeing that the situation was over, Shang Zhou ordered his subordinates to pile all the gold, silver and treasures onto the Lutai. That night, he hid in the Lutai, set a fire, and jumped into the fire to die. Zhou used his brutal life to stage a farce of playing with fire and burning himself. Unfortunately, such farces were frequently staged in Chinese and foreign history. Even if someone didn't have a memory, we had nothing to do with it. Let him go.

The greater the desires a person has, the deeper the suffering. He is clear-minded and has few desires, calm and calm, just like the sun and the moon passing through the sky. It is natural, so why worry and worry?
