The story of Reese

Reese (about 284 BC? 208 BC), Li, Mingsi, the word bronze drum. At the end of the Warring States Period, Chu was a native of Shangcai (now Shangcai, Henan). A famous politician, writer and calligrapher in the Qin Dynasty. The following is my story about Reese. Welcome to reading.

Li Sijian's suggestion to drive away the guests

Although Qin suffered defeat in Handan, its strength is still very strong. In the second year (256 BC), he attacked Korea and Zhao and won the battle. Later, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty died in name only. After the death of Zhao Xiang, King of Qin, his grandson, King Xiang of Qin Zhuang, died less than three years after he ascended the throne. Prince Ying Zheng, only thirteen years old, acceded to the throne.

At that time, the regime of Qin was in the hands of Prime Minister Lv Buwei.

Lv Buwei was originally a wealthy businessman in Yangzhai (now Yuxian County, Henan Province), and became prime minister for helping King Zhuang Xiang ascend to the throne. After becoming prime minister, Lv Buwei followed Meng Changjun's example and received a large number of public guests, many of whom came from other countries.

During the Warring States Period, hundred schools of thought wrote a book. Historically, this situation has been called. A hundred schools of thought contend? . Lv Buwei couldn't write a book by himself, so he organized his disciples to write a book called Lv Chunqiu. After the book was written, Lv Buwei also sent someone to hang it on the gate of Xianyang, and issued a notice saying that anyone who can make comments on the book, whether adding a word or deleting a word, will be rewarded with 220. Now, he is even more famous.

Qin Wang Yue is getting older and older. At the age of 22, there was a rebellion in the palace, which implicated Lv Buwei. Qin felt out of the way, so he was relieved of his post. Later, I found that Lv Buwei was very powerful, so I forced him to commit suicide.

As soon as Lv Buwei fell, some nobles and ministers of Qin began to talk about it, saying that people from other countries came to Qin for themselves, and some people might be spies. They asked the king of Qin to drive all the guests out of the state of Qin.

Qin accepted the advice and ordered the March. All officials, big or small, who are not in the State of Qin, should leave the State of Qin.

Li Si, a guest of Chu, was originally a student of Xun Kuang, a famous representative of Confucianism. He came to the State of Qin and was kept as a guest by Lv Buwei. Reese was also fired this time, and she was quite unconvinced. When he left Xianyang, he wrote a letter to the king of Qin.

Reese said on the throne:? Once upon a time, Qin Mugong used Prissy and Uncle Jian to become the hegemon; Qin Xiaogong uses Shang Yang, and the reform plan is strong; King Huiwen used Zhang Yi to break up the six-nation alliance; Item, improve the prestige of the court. These four monarchs built their political achievements by Ke Qingshi. Now that you are in the hands of the king, you have driven away all the foreign talents. Isn't this to help the enemy increase their strength?

Qin felt that Reese had a point, so he quickly sent someone to take Reese back from halfway, restore his official position, and canceled the marching orders.

After the King of Qin used Reese as his counselor, he stepped up his attack on other countries, sent people to lobby the governors of other countries, and cooperated with the armed attack by means of betrayal and betrayal. Seeing this situation, Wang Han 'an was very scared and sent his son Han Fei to the State of Qin for peace, expressing his willingness to be a vassal of the State of Qin.

Han Fei is also a student in Xun Kuang, with Li Si. He saw that the country was weakening in South Korea, and he remonstrated with the king of South Korea many times, but the king of South Korea just ignored him. Han Fei was full of knowledge and was not valued, so he wrote a book called Han Feizi behind closed doors. In his book, he advocated that the monarch mainly concentrated power and strengthened the rule of law. This book spread to the state of Qin, and the king of Qin appreciated it very much. He said, if only I could meet this man. ?

This time, Han Fei was sent to Qin by Wang Wei of the Han Dynasty. Seeing the power of Qin, he wrote a letter to the king of Qin, expressing his willingness to contribute to the unification of Qin. As soon as the letter came up, the king of Qin had not considered reusing Han Fei, but Reese was in a hurry first, fearing that Han Fei would rob him of his position. He said before the king of Qin:? Han Fei is the son of South Korea, and the king annexed the princes. Han Fei must plan for South Korea. If we let him go back to China, it will be a future trouble. Might as well find a charge and kill him. ?

Hearing this, the king of Qin hesitated and ordered Han Fei to be detained for interrogation. Han Fei went to prison and had no chance to defend himself. Reese sent him poison, and Han Fei had to take medicine to kill himself.

Qin Wangzheng detained Han Fei and regretted it a little. He sent someone to release Han Fei, but it was too late. Qin rang is very upset. Just then, a wei ren came to Qin, and Qin talked with him. He thought he was a rare talent, so he was appointed as Qin Guowei, and later people called him Wei.

The life of Reese

Reese, when he was dying, there was a famous saying. According to historical records, he was killed at that time. Kill three families? That is: mother, husband, wife, hundreds of people, Reese knelt on the guillotine, next to his son, followed by the whole family. The executioner has polished the broadsword, pulled out a hair and tried to use the blade. Think about it, it's just a waist cut, how fast. At this time, Reese said a very level sentence to his son: How can you get the dog by taking it to the East Gate? . Son, do you remember when I led your brothers and yellow dog to hunt in the mountains outside the East Gate of Shangcai? Alas, it won't happen again. At this time, Reese is quietly facing death, and he is joking with his son who is about to step into the grave. Just black humor. Reese, who can say this sentence, deserves our admiration. It can also be said that he made a "concluding speech" on his life as an official and denied his life.

Reese's life is not brilliant. This Henan native is a late bloomer.

Reese used to be the warehouse manager of Shangcai, equivalent to the staff of a grain depot under the county grain bureau, and died as a section chief. The place where he enlightened was quite special, especially in the toilet. When I was defecating in the toilet, I saw a mouse, so I put my head around. Mr. Li coughed, and the mouse ran around in fear and touched the urinal. Mr Li smiled a few times. Then what did you do to the mouse? Know something? I thought of the mice that my unit raised at public expense, fat in vain, pacing in the granary, eating whenever they want, sleeping whenever they want, and feeling at ease. I've been thinking about it for a few days after I got up. Later, I couldn't help but feel scared: I'm not a mouse in the toilet. After some ideological struggle, Reese decided to quit his job and go out to work.

He went to Lanling County (Chu State) and worshipped at Xunzi's door. He is a loyal disciple of Confucius and Mencius. Reese just wants to get a diploma and get a seat in Chu. He tried to please the teacher, only thinking that the teacher's graduation assignment was the starting point. At this time, there was a person who completely influenced his life-Han Feizi. This noble son actually seduced the teacher's eyes. From then on, Xunzi seldom invited Reese to his house for dinner. Han Fei is much better than Reese. There are at least a few places:

1. Han Fei is from Hebei and Li Si is from Henan. Xunzi often heard some jokes about Henan people on the wine table, and he didn't like them very much. Although Li Si once sent the teacher a book "Who did Henan people provoke?" .

2. Han Fei speaks Mandarin well, which is even better than Li Si's strong eastern Henan accent.

3. Han Fei is a noble, dressed neatly and devoted to his classmates and teachers. Reese is married now and has several children. His wife wrote that there was no money to sell rice at home. Where can he afford fashionable clothes?

4. Han Fei talked about many political forms at school, and there were some dirty jokes in the middle. Of course, Henan people are indispensable.
