Besides, Shi De also saw that he and Cao Yongguo must have a fate, otherwise they would not have met by chance on the bus - as for Cao Yongguo's respect as the deputy mayor, why he didn't take his own special car and took the bus, it was not Shi De's concern.

"Good and evil." Shi De's topic gradually deepened into the areas that Cao Yongguo was interested in, "For thousands of years, whether it is the era when a hundred schools of thought contended and a hundred flowers bloomed, or the heyday of Confucianism that overthrew a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, or the chaotic era of ******** after the so-called New Culture Movement, even if it is the current new period, how many ideas have risen and disappeared, and how many isms have appeared and perished, but the standard of good and evil of human beings has never changed, and it is the eternal truth between heaven and earth. ”

"The standard of good and evil?" Cao Yongguo didn't quite understand what Shi De wanted to express.

"A person, whether he is a small grassroots, a great leader, an expert with equal writings, or a grass citizen who has no right to speak, is in the code of good and evil, under the monitoring of the Heavenly Dao, and the final fate is good or bad, not because of the level of his official position and wealth, nor because of the size of his reputation, but only by the amount of good and evil." As he spoke, the dumplings came up, and the steaming dumplings filled a full plate, which made Shi De's appetite great.

While the appetite is great, the mood is also good.

The unexpected encounter with Cao Yongguo was like a familiar sight, if you count the acquaintance in the provincial party committee and complete, Shi De's harvest today can be described as very rich. Although Shi has no intention of entering the officialdom, he must have the connections of officialdom in the shopping mall to become bigger and stronger, and he has a good conversation with Cao Yongguo, and he has the possibility of further deep friendship with Cao Yongguo, how can he not be overjoyed?

What's more, Cao Yongguo intends to eat at the only house downstairs of the Bitian Group, and the implication is very strong, I believe that Cao Yongguo also knows the current crisis of the Bitian Group, and even knows the relationship between him and Biyou.

"You mean, if you do good deeds, you will have a good life?" Cao Yongguo heard the meaning of Shi De's words, "If a person is in a high position and does not do good deeds with good intentions, he will not end well in the end?" ”

"Yes, Feng Tang is easy to be old, Li Guang is difficult to seal, Uncle Cao knows that Li Guang has made a lot of achievements in his life, why has he never been crowned?"

"Li Guang's matter, I have also read it in the history books, there are many reasons why he can't be a marquis, one of which is that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty doesn't like him very much. There were also too many famous generals at that time, such as Wei Qing, such as Huo Quzhi, although Li Guang was powerful, compared with Wei Qing and Huo Quzhi, it was still much worse. Cao Yongguo saw that the topic had already touched on the aspects he was interested in, and thought to himself that Shi De was not only a very eye-catching master, but also a very smart young man, rare, really rare.

"Li Guang can't be a marquis, of course, it is related to his personality as a martial artist, but also related to his often conceited and underestimated enemies, and he doesn't know how to strategize...... Of course, the most important reason is that Li Guang did something that greatly damaged Yin morality - killing and surrendering! ”

Soldiers have always been very taboo about one thing - killing and surrendering, the so-called killing and surrendering is ominous, since the surrender has already surrendered, and then kill it, the sky will be angry.

"Tell me about it." Cao Yongguo became interested, picked up a dumpling and dipped it in vinegar, put it in his mouth, and said with interest, "Xiao Shi, you are a very talented person." ”

Shi De smiled modestly: "Li Guang couldn't be a marquis several times, so he complained to Wang Shuo, a famous warlock at that time, since the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu in the north, I have been in every major battle, but other generals have been named marquis and ranked as the third duke, but I have not been marquis, is it because I am destined not to be a marquis?" Wang Shuo asked, think about it, have you done anything wrong? Li Guang thought for a while and said, The thing I regret the most is that I killed the 800 people who had surrendered. Wang Shuo sighed and said, there is no greater disaster than killing has fallen, so the general is not allowed to be a marquis. Not only is there no hope for the marquis, but it may also affect the children and grandchildren. Killing prisoners was an immoral thing in ancient times, not to mention killing another 800 people, so Li Guang would definitely suffer retribution. Sure enough, after surrendering to the Xiongnu from Li Ling, the Li family declined. ”

"When you say that, I believe this statement very much, it is unkind to kill ominous surrenders and kill soldiers who surrender. Most of the generals killed and surrendered in ancient Chinese history did not end well. Shi De's words are the same as the dumplings of the only family, which is very suitable for Cao Yongguo's appetite, and at the same time Cao Yongguo's appetite is opened, the conversation is also very exciting, "For example, Bai Qi, such as Xiang Yu, such as Chang Yuchun." ”

Bai Qi, the first of the four famous generals of the Warring States, made great contributions to the unification of the world by the Qin Dynasty. But he was also called "human slaughter" for killing too many people, and became a generation of killing gods. In the Battle of Changping, Bai Qikeng killed 400,000 soldiers of Zhao State. With such a great military exploit, he was later killed by King Qin Zhao because of the slander of the powerful minister Fan Jujin. When Bai Qi killed himself, he looked up to the sky and sighed: "What sin did I have for God to punish me like this, and I ended up like this?" After a while, he said, "I deserved to die." In the Battle of Changping, the Zhao army surrendered hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and I buried them all alive by deception, which is enough for a capital crime! After saying that, he committed suicide and ended up in a tragic end.

Xiang Yu, the famous "Overlord of Western Chu", he ended the rule of the Qin Dynasty, and responded to the words of Chu Although there are three households, the death of Qin will be Chu. In November of the first year of the Han Dynasty, Xiang Yu led his army to Xin'an, worried about the changes in the Qin Dynasty's army, and killed 200,000 Qin soldiers in Xin'an, leaving a reputation for brutality and planting the evil cause of failure. Xiang Yu won more with less in most of his life, and was known as the strongest military general in Chinese history, and he was accustomed to using elite soldiers to impact the enemy and defeat the enemy. In 202 BC, Xiang Yu's army was defeated (now Lingbi South, Anhui), broke through to Wujiang (now Wujiang Town, Hexian County, Anhui) and killed himself.

Because Liu Bang offered Xiang Yu a heavy reward, after Xiang Yu's death, he was fought for by countless people for his body, and his body was tragically divided, which can be said to be dead without a whole body.

Often in spring, Zhu Yuanzhang's first fierce general, brave and unbeaten, has never tasted defeat in his life. Although he is a victorious general, he is also a famous general in history who loves to kill and surrender the army. In 1359, in the first battle of Jiuhua Mountain, without the consent of Zhu Yuanzhang, he privately killed more than 3,000 Chen Youliang and surrendered more than 3,000 people. It is precisely for this reason that in 1369 AD, after the total annihilation of the Kaiping Yuan army, on the way back to the division, Chang Yuchun, who was in the prime of life and was strong, suddenly died violently at the age of only 40.

In history, the famous generals who did not die well after the surrender, as well as Tuoba Jue, Hu Zongxian and others, Tuoba Jue was killed by his own son because he killed tens of thousands of surrendered Yan troops. And Hu Zongxian was also because of the fraud of Xu Hai and the indiscriminate killing of innocents, after Yan Song's death, he was ordered to be questioned, and then killed himself.

"Sometimes I think about it, in a person's life, there are really lives that affect many things, and it can't be done if you don't believe it." Cao Yongguo suddenly sighed and asked him bluntly about the aspect he was most interested in, "Xiao Shi, will you meet?" ”

Seeing that Cao Yongguo went straight in, it was not easy to hide anything, so he nodded and said, "I know a little bit about it." ”

"Then tell me, is it really impossible to escape fate in life?" Although he has been in officialdom for many years, the ups and downs of officialdom have also made him realize a truth that he has always thought was superstition and nonsense - in front of the giant hand of fate, sometimes personal power is really insignificant.

People who don't believe in fate, people who don't respect heaven and earth, are all because they have too little knowledge and too little experience. A person who has really experienced the ups and downs of life and has a successful person that ordinary people cannot reach will see how much fate plays a huge role in a person's life.

Cao Yongguo used to be the director of a provincial-level overall situation, deputy department level, and later because he offended the leaders of the provincial party committee, he was transferred from the overall situation to the marginal bureau. Seeing that his career had come to an end, it was no accident that he worked in the fringe bureau until he retired all his life, but he suddenly met Xia Xiang.

It doesn't matter if he meets Xia Xiang, Xia Xiang is still in love with his daughter. At that time, although he felt that Xia Xiang was not nameless, he liked Xia Xiang's intelligence and ability very much, so he acquiesced to his daughter's relationship with Xia Xiang. What he never expected was that as soon as Xia Xiang entered the officialdom, he quickly opened up the situation, not only became the deputy county magistrate of Anxian County at a young age, but also helped him introduce several heavyweight leaders of the provincial party committee, and finally when the opportunity came, he was jointly nominated by several leaders of the provincial party committee, and he actually made a 180-degree turn on the spot, from a director of the fringe bureau to a member of the Standing Committee of the Shimen Municipal Party Committee and deputy mayor!

He can only be described as a miracle in his life.

Behind the turning point, Cao Yongguo also understood a truth, if he looked down on Xia Xiang at that time and did not agree with Xia Xiang's relationship with his daughter, then he would not have turned over today. And it is obvious that at his current age, the deputy mayor is not the end of his career, and the future prospects are bright.

From a bleak future to a bright road in the blink of an eye, the great changes in life, even Cao Yongguo, who has experienced the vicissitudes of the world for a long time, has to sigh The magic of the giant hand of fate is completely the magic of turning the clouds and rain.

It is precisely because of this that Cao Yongguo, who has always thought he is a firm materialist, has shaken his faith, and today's scene of Shi De's debate with the old man on the bus made him understand a truth, all magical things and unexplained phenomena are called superstition, which is a manifestation of shallow knowledge, lack of knowledge and superficial life experience.

"In life, there is indeed a fate. Destiny, fate, seven lives and three fortunes, seven points of heaven are destined, and three points depend on hard work, that is to say, people are born, and there are seven points of life that are destined to be unchangeable, but there are still three points of life, which can be in their own hands the day after tomorrow. ”
