"Historical Records * Biography of King Zhao Wu Zhao" contains: King Zhao went out of the city, such as Jiaolong into the sea, avoiding Chu soldiers, two days to the city, three days to the city, one day to Tancheng, five days through Zhongwu, four days to Pengcheng, six days to Yongcheng, two days to Mengcheng, three days to the end of Shenyi.

From the few words in the history books, we can deeply understand Zhao Jie's relaxed and happy mood at this time. However, the history books do not specifically describe Zhao Jie's journey, but the happy times of this journey remain in the memories of the two people forever. Until they are old, they keep reminiscing.

In the 20th year of King Xiang of Chu, King Zhaoxiang of Qin deceived the princess into marriage to King Qingxiang of Chu, and then the Qin army took advantage of King Qingxiang to open the city to welcome his relatives, and drove straight into the capital of Chu. After this battle, the ruling class of Chu saw the face of the Qin people clearly, and the Chu people no longer believed that Qin and Chu would be friendly, so in order to guard against the attack of the Qin army, the Chu State transferred a large number of troops to the western front to defend the Qin State and defend the Chen capital, so the troops on the Chu-Qi border were much empty. Thanks to this, Zhao Jie and his entourage of more than 20 people quickly interspersed through the loopholes in the defense and entered the territory of Chu State. After crossing the border, Zhao Jie and his entourage galloped to Xiangcheng to replenish food and other necessary daily necessities.

Xiangcheng, also known as Xiangcheng or Xiangyi, was originally the feudal state of the youngest son of Emperor Shaokang of the Xia Dynasty in the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty - the ancient city of Yan State, because Xiang Yi was called king here during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Later, Xiang City was captured by the Lu State, and the residents of the city fled to the Chu State in the south, all of whom took Xiang as their surname. After the Lu State captured Xiangcheng, Xiangcheng was captured by the Qi State again, and then it was occupied by the Chu State taking advantage of the internal strife in Qi until today. The descendants of Xiang Yi, who fled from Xiangcheng to the Chu State, became a large family of the Chu State after several generations of reproduction in the Chu State, and this family played an important role from the end of the Warring States Period to the end of the Qin Dynasty, among which the important figures were Xiang Yan and Xiang Yu. Zhao Jie did not stop in Xiangcheng, and the years of war made Xiangcheng dilapidated, and it also made it a logistical food and grass supply point for the Chu army.

After supplying food and water, Zhao Jie set off again, and after crossing a large area of no-man's land and wilderness, he finally arrived in Yuncheng when the food was about to run out. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the capital of a vassal state of the State of Juan, the State of Zun was very weak, and in the sixth year of the reign of Duke Lu, the State of Lu destroyed the State of Juan. Perhaps because the state of Yan was too weak, his kingdom did not have the appearance of a princely state at all. Zhao Jie rested here for a good night. The next day, we set out again, and a day later arrived at the first large city on the way, Tancheng.

Tancheng, the capital of the princely state of Tan during the Spring and Autumn Period, once appeared here a sage - Tanzi. Tan Zi, the first monarch of Tan during the Spring and Autumn Period, the story of his deer milk dedication to his relatives is well known to the world.

Tan Zi was born into an ordinary peasant family, and he was an only child. Tanzi's parents are a pair of enlightened parents, they have been strictly disciplined since childhood, and they always pay attention to cultivating children's beautiful moral sentiments and good living habits. Under the care and education of his strict father and mother, Tanzi grew up day by day and began to pick up the burden of life. He works during the day, accompanies his parents at night, and after his parents go to sleep, he has to study and study, although life is very difficult, but Tanzi feels very fulfilled and full of confidence in the future.

Heaven will descend on private individuals, they must first suffer their minds, work their muscles and bones, and extraordinary people will have extraordinary experiences. One day, Tanzi's parents contracted a strange eye disease at the same time. First it itched, then it hurt, and eventually they were both blind. Tanzi sought medical advice everywhere, ran around all day long, and didn't know how many kinds of home remedies he tried, but they didn't work. Despite this, Tan Zi did not waver in the slightest confidence in restoring his parents' eyes, and still inquired everywhere.

Due to the perseverance and hard work, coupled with the selfless help of all the villagers. Tanzi finally got another good recipe. But the primer of the prescription is the rare wild deer milk.

He reluctantly sold part of his possessions, scraped together some money, and bought from the hunter a freshly processed wild deer skin and a large, sturdy silver bottle. After buying these two things, he put on his dry food and straw sandals, hung a silver bottle in his waist, and carried a deerskin on his shoulder, said goodbye to his old father and mother, and went on his own road.

I don't know how many days and nights passed, and how many failures I experienced, but just when the dry food was about to run out, Tan Zi was pleasantly surprised to find that there were newborn fawns in the deer herd. In order to succeed in one fell swoop, Tanzi cautiously approached the herd of deer. Perhaps it was Tanzi's filial piety that touched heaven and earth, and Tanzi successfully obtained deer milk and healed his mother.

Since then, Tanzi's reputation has spread far and wide. People come here and worship Tanzi as a teacher, learn knowledge, and learn to be a man. Some people simply live here for the convenience of studying. Confucius also came to live here for a period of time to receive the teachings of Tanzi.

More and more people gathered, and Tanzi's hometown changed from a village to a town. and from a city to a state. The local people unanimously elected Tan Zi as the first monarch of Tan State.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the Zhou royal family gradually declined, and the princes and powers fought and embezzled each other, and the world was in turmoil. Tan State, although it is a small country, is quite famous, the main reason for this is the political achievements, talent and benevolence and filial piety of the monarch Tan Zi, which has won the hearts of the people. Tanzi Zhitan stresses morality, benevolence and righteousness, and grace and prestige, and the people are happy and convinced, so that the culture of Tandi is developed, the folk customs are pure, and some rules and regulations continue to be maintained, which has a very far-reaching impact on later generations.

"Brother Jie, where are we going!" On the lively street of Tancheng, Xingyi took Zhao Jie's hand and asked.

"Yi'er, Tancheng is most famous for Tancheng Yixue, I'll take you there first." Zhao Jie replied dotingly.

Tancheng Yixue was originally a place for Tanzi to teach, because Confucius had come here to study, so it gradually developed into one of the bases for Confucianism to promote Confucianism in the Warring States Period. When Zhao Jie and Xingyi came, many people had gathered in Yixue, and the professor in Yixue was talking about the Book of Songs.

"Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island. My Fair Lady, Gentleman. Jagged wattles, left and right flowing. My Fair Lady, I covet it. I can't ask for it, but I can't think about it. Leisurely, tossing and turning. Jagged wattles, picked left and right. My Fair Lady, Friends of the Piano. Jagged wattle, left and right. My Fair Lady, bells and drums. The lecturer shook his head.

"Guan Guan and Ming's dove, accompanied by the small island in the river. That beautiful and virtuous woman is a good spouse of a gentleman. Jagged wattle, scoop it from left to right. The beautiful and virtuous woman wanted to pursue her when she woke up and slept. pursued but couldn't get it, and I always missed her day and night. Long thoughts, teaching people to toss and turn and make it difficult to sleep. Jagged wattle, pick it from left to right. The beautiful and virtuous woman played the harp to draw close to her. For a jagged horsetail, pluck it from left to right. The beautiful and virtuous woman beat the bell and drum to please her. ”

"Poetry and words, songs and words, sound and harmony. "Guan Ju", poetry, the virtue of the queen and concubine of the Ming Dynasty, women are only loyal and virtuous, subtle and restrained, and they are worthy of the prince. The beginning of the "wind" is also, so the wind in the world and the husband and wife are also, so the people of the country are used for the country. "Wind", the wind also, teach also. The wind moves it, and the ...... teaches it."

When Xingyi heard this, she was unhappy with her words about her low status as a woman; When Zhao Jie heard this, he disdained it and refuted it.

"Sir." Zhao Jie stood up and interrupted the professor's words and asked, "Confucius said, "Guan Sui" is happy but not lewd, sad but not sad. My view of "Guan Ju", although sweet and catchy, lively words, but in fact it is just a simple poem that sings about the love between men and women, what it roughly praises, is it a kind of emotional restraint, cautious behavior, and love with the goal of marital harmony, and insists on linking it to the virtue of the concubine, is it a bit far-fetched? ”

"My son doesn't know poetry." The professor lowered his face and said, "The transformation of "Guan Sui" and "Lin Toe" is the wind of the king, so it is the Duke of Zhou. South, the words from the north to the south. The virtue of "Magpie's Nest" and "Su Yu", the wind of the princes, the reason why the first king taught, is the call of the public. "Zhou Nan" and "Zhao Nan", the way of the beginning, the foundation of Wang Hua. is to be happy with the lady in "Guan Sui", and to match the gentleman; Worry about entering the virtuous, not lewd. Sincere and slender, thinking of talents, and no harm to the good heart, is the righteousness of "Guan Sui".

The three hundred "Book of Songs", if they are all songs of the life of the small people, and there is no deep meaning in its deep hiding, why should Confucius compile it. And if it is a song of the small people, everyone in the world can read it, why should we stand here?

The history of the country is clear about the traces of gains and losses, the abolition of hurting people, the harshness of mourning and punishment, and the sentimentality of chanting. Therefore, the change is affectionate, and it stops at etiquette and righteousness. is affectionate, and the nature of the people is also; Stop at etiquette and righteousness, and the zes of the first kings are also. "Poems" is a profound historical event, and its meaning cannot be thoroughly studied by Confucian scholars even if they exhaust their lives. The kid is a yellow-mouthed child, how dare he easily open his mouth to blaspheme? ”

"Oh. Oh. After listening to the professor's sophistry, the immature young man asked with a smile, "So according to Mr. Guanju, which virtue does "Guan Ju" praise the concubine?" ”

Confucian thought for a while and said, "Guan Ju said that the concubine's temperament is harmonious, and under the specialization of chastity, it is the virtue of the concubine to seek talent and serve the ministry. The concubine is a good woman who is claustrophobic and chaste, and she should be a good horse for a gentleman. Happy to be a lady, to match a gentleman, worry about being virtuous, not lewd; Mourning, thinking of talents, and no hurt kindness. It is the righteousness of "Guan Ju". ”

This lecture talked about the red sun about setting, and Zhao Jie was present to listen to it all afternoon.
