As a famous strategist, politician and poet at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao was the founder and main founder of the State of Wei in the Three Kingdoms period. He studied diligently and never put down his books. This is one of the main reasons why Cao Cao stood out in that heroic era and embarked on the road to success. However, it is a bit too big to say that "I can be a diligent person when I grow up, just me and Yuan Boye". Not to mention the Three Kingdoms period, that is, the whole human history, how many successful people did not learn hard to become talents?
Let's say that during the Three Kingdoms period, scholars who grew up and worked hard were everywhere. For example, Sun Quan, the king of Wu, was not only good at reading and studying, but also persuaded those who were "less and less educated" to become later talents. According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, Sun Quan said to Lv Meng: "When I was a child, I had a poem calendar, books, rites, six towers, Zuo Zhuan, Mandarin and three histories. Confucius said that it is useless not to eat all day and not to sleep all night. It is better to study. Guangwu (that is, Liu Xiu) is in charge of the army, and he can't put it down. Meng De (that is, Cao Cao) also claimed to be old and studious. How can you not be diligent? " This article uses the examples of himself, Liu Xiu and Cao Cao, Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, to induce Lv Meng to learn and finally make him
"I have been studying since I was a child and I am tireless. What I saw was beyond the reach of the old Confucianism. " The story of Lu Meng's late birth later formed two allusions, one is "Wu Xia Amon" and the other is "Farewell for three days, that is, more impressive".
Dong Yu was an old farmer during the reign of Cao Cao. He was "stupid and eager to learn" and "made a living by selling books, but he often took time to study with the classics as the quality. His brother laughed and didn't change. " Jingzhao people celebrate the jubilee without learning or skill. "Three auxiliary chaos, south to jingzhou, not disturbed by famine, is responsible for the scriptures. The rest of the day, they get together to recite the "Xi Zhi" ("The Biography of the Three Kingdoms, Wang Lang"). At the beginning, Wu Dong and Zhu Gejin were equally famous for their oracles, "Take refuge in Jiangdong, be poor, and be as good as Guangling Wei in the same year. They all grow melons for self-sufficiency, work hard during the day and sing classics at night. " (Oracle of the Three Kingdoms) Wei Wendi Cao Pishi Jia Kui, the satrap of Wei County, said: "It is best to read Zuo Zhuan, which is often read once a month." (Biography of the Three Kingdoms Jia Kui) Chang Lin, who was once the satrap of the plain, was eager to learn, "to cultivate himself by classics." (Biography of the Three Kingdoms and Changlin) When Cao Cao was in Cao Cao, Zhao Hu was a very good history book. "The prince can't bend, and he never tires of reading at the age of 80." ("The Story of the Three Kingdoms and Guan Ning Chuan") Xiang Lang of Shu State, with a huge word, used to be the prefect of Brazil. "He devoted himself to studying classics and worked tirelessly. In my eighties, I can still proofread books, publish fallacies and accumulate books, which is the most. " Zhang Zhao, a famous minister of the State of Wu, fell ill and returned to his hometown. "There's nothing in the house, only the Spring and Autumn Zuozhuan and the Analects of Confucius." There are also writers such as Kong Rong, Chen Lin, RoyceWong, Xu Gan, Ruan Yu, Angelababy and Liu Zhen, who are known as the "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest", and metaphysical representatives such as Ji Kang, Ruan Ji, Dan Tao, Xiang Xiu, Wang Rong and Ruan Xian, who are known as the "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest".
First, knowledge is competitiveness. Only by learning enough knowledge can we win in the competition. After a lifetime of fighting, Liu Bei finally gained a foothold in Shu, and died in the first year of Zhangwu shortly after the failure of the Yiling War with Wu Dong. The lessons of failure are often more profound than the experiences of success. When Liu Bei died, he learned from a painful experience. The main reason for his failure was that his strategy was not as good as his opponent's, which in turn stemmed from his "love of reading, dogs, horses, music and beautiful clothes." ("reflection") so in the testamentary edict to his son Liu Chan, in addition to warning Liu Chan, "don't do it with evil small, don't do it with good small. In addition to being virtuous and able to serve others, I also told him to study hard and make a bibliography for him. " Reading Hanshu and Book of Rites is beneficial to people and wisdom. I heard that the Prime Minister wrote Shen, Han, Guan Zi and Liu Tao, but they died before they arrived. You can ask Wen Da more. "Liu Bei knows that learning ability is one of a person's core competitiveness, and it is difficult for inexperienced Liu Chan to consolidate the Liu Group's political power in Shu, so he used so many words in the testamentary edict to persuade him to learn. Wei Yao, the son of the King of Wu, was ordered by Sun He to write a famous article criticizing people for "neglecting classics, playing games for fun and abandoning their careers". It is said that "Gai Wenjun was ashamed of his past achievements, and he was not famous all his life, so he said,' Learning is not as good as learning, and he is afraid of losing it'. It is because the ancients lamented the passage of time and were afraid that the name would not be justified. Therefore, they work hard, wake up in the morning and sleep at night without rest. " (Biography of the Three Kingdoms Wei Yaochuan) also said the same thing.
Second, there is no end to learning. The more you read, the more eager you are for knowledge. Only those who don't really get started or have a little knowledge will feel that they have studied, and they are half a drop in the bucket. Wei Lue records that Ji Mao, then known as Qingjie, once said, "I am not ashamed of eating dirty clothes, but I am ashamed of knowing nothing." With all kinds of books and classics accumulated at that time, one may not finish reading them. Therefore, it is not unusual to be a "diligent scholar", and there are also people who are "never tired of reading at the age of 80". Yu Qian, the author of Wei Lue, who worked as a doctor in the Three Kingdoms and became an official after entering the Jin Dynasty, said: "Is learning given by others, or is it blue! Therefore, although Zhong Ni, I still said,' I was not born to know', what a great thing! " "But not by learning to keep learning, but up to the emperor and down to the famous Confucianism in the country!" (Biography of Reflection in Changlin) At that time, three students, Hua Xin, Li Yuan and Guan Ning, named "Yi Long", were very famous. Hua Xin, the leader, was honored as a distinguished guest when he followed Sun Ce. "Every time I sit at a policy meeting, I dare not speak first. I will say it when I change my clothes." (Biography of the Three Kingdoms and Hua Tuo)No. is a long history of Wei's five senses. Prince Cao Pi called "a hundred guests, and the prince suggested:' Your father and your father have their own illnesses, and one pill can save one person. Should you save your evil, your father? People are different, either father or king. Don't talk about it when you are sitting. When the prince asked Yuan, Yuan was furious and said,' Father also'. The prince is no longer difficult. "Called beaten Ning Guan, but also lofty. Cao Cao invited him for three generations, but he never became an official. (Biography of the Three Kingdoms and the Plain) Without knowledge, how can it be called a dragon; If they can't keep studying, they may be surpassed by others.
Third, learning is a career, in which there is fun. Sitting alone on a bench with a yellow lantern, it seems lonely and bitter. However, there are thousands of waters in Qian Shan, and there are thousands of weather in the book; There are too many knowledge and situations in the book that I can't reach and touch; The book also has its own golden house, and the book also has its own Yan Ruyu. If you really read it, you will naturally like it, and you will naturally enjoy it and be tireless. Wandering in the sea of knowledge is the most pleasant, comfortable and carefree thing, which can not only dispel doubts, but also make people forget their worries. No wonder many people stay up all night and forget to eat or sleep. Confucius doesn't know the taste of meat in March, and Dong Zhongshu doesn't peek at luna park, which is all such an artistic conception. Cao gun, the son of Cao Cao, King Gong of Zhongshan, said, "If you are less eager to learn, a teenager can be a scholar. Every time I read a book, the left and right factions of literature and art are often afraid to treat their energy as a disease, and they will not give up after several exhortations. However, I am happy and can't waste it. " Cao Cao's sons Chen and Cao Zhi said, "From beginning to end, books are inseparable." Emperor Wen xelloss, "eight years old, can belong to the text. Talent leads to classics of ancient and modern times and books of a hundred schools. " Yu, the son of Sun Jing, the imperial clan of Soochow, said, "Although I am on a military trip, I have been reciting it." ("Biography of the Three Kingdoms"), Guan Ju, who was regarded as the founder by later fortune tellers, "When I was eight or nine years old, I liked to look up at the morning star and had to ask its name, so I refused to sleep at night. Parents often forbid it, especially in deep bridge. I said to myself,' Although I am young, I like astronomy in my eyes. Play with neighbors in the soil and paint for astronomy, the sun, the moon and the stars. "("the reflection of Ji Fang biography ") all these show that what Confucius said is right. "Knowing is not as good as being good, and being good is not as good as being happy. "(The Analects of Confucius, Yongye) People who really enter reading all take reading as their first pleasure. If it's really miserable, how can there be so many lifelong scholars at all times and in all countries?
