A few days ago, I saw the first part of Those Things in the Ming Dynasty-Emperor Hongwu, and I was deeply attracted by the story in the book from the beginning. This book is a special one among the history books I have read. Its language is fluent and humorous, teasing from time to time, giving people a feeling of reading history easily.
The first part describes the most difficult founding process of the Ming Dynasty from the birth of Zhu Yuanzhang to the end of the Jingnan War of Yongle Emperor Judy. Battle of Taiping and Taihu Lake; Bury evil tigers by the bed and eradicate Zhang Shicheng; There is also the biggest mystery of the Ming Dynasty-Yongle's seizure of the throne, and the bizarre Jingnan War of Wen Jian's disappearance. A wave of unrest, another wave, can be described as climax after climax, can not stop. After reading it, we know that Zhu Chongba is a penniless young monk whose main job is begging. He was forced to rebel and changed his name to Zhu Yuanzhang. Later, through their own efforts, courage, wisdom, determination and extraordinary military genius, as well as the help of many capable people around them (such as Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Liu Ji, etc. ), he overthrew the Yuan Dynasty and established his own ideal country-Daming. Later, Zhu Yunwen was too kind to lose the throne, and his whereabouts became a mystery. Zhu Yuanzhang's son Judy completely inherited one of his father's characteristics: do it or do it. Because of this, he successfully rebelled and seized the throne from his nephew.
After reading it, I feel deeply: it tells us that persistent faith and fearless mind are the most powerful weapons, and we must learn to be calm, persistent and decisive in doing anything. Only in this way can you stand up bravely again after failure and not collapse; Only in this way can you have a strong will and determination to overcome all difficulties and finally reach the other side of success.
Thoughts on reading "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" 2 This is a history book and an inspirational book, at least for me. I mentioned this book many times in my previous diary, and here I will write down the reading notes of this book systematically.
The first is history. This book is about the 200-year history of the Ming Dynasty. From Zhu Yuanzhang's rebellion to Emperor Chongzhen's hanging, there are many angles. Around one character after another, tell their stories and the stories of the Ming Dynasty from their perspectives, and comprehensively analyze the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty and the causal relationship behind it from multiple angles.
Then there is the literary value. Sima Qian's Historical Records has the reputation of "a historian's masterpiece, leaving Sao without rhyme", that is to say, it integrates the functions of historical materials and literature. The same is true of this book, at least I think it is of literary value. Its language is lively and interesting, humorous and popular, and touching. It can make you laugh, or it can make you feel sad silently. Its story can make you read it for hours without getting bored, and you want to continue reading it. I think this is the literary value.
In addition, there are correct ideas. There are countless historical figures in the book. They are all noble and respectable. For the country and the road, they can bear the burden of humiliation for decades, and they can defend the frontier by themselves. Everyone has selfish desires, but they all give up their selfish desires. This is nobility.
They live for their own value and significance, which is a correct outlook on life. They pursue justice and equality, and pay their own efforts and even their lives for their ideals. This is the correct value. When a person has an ideal, he will have a clear direction and infinite power.
What kind of way do you want to live? Life is the first time, life is the first time, everything is the first time, everything is brand-new, and there are infinite possibilities and miracles. Believe that the power of youth can transcend death.
Thoughts on reading "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" 3 During the winter vacation, I read a set of books called "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", a total of seven books.
It is about Daming's pioneering work, from Zhu Chongba, an unknown farmer, to Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of Hongwu in the prosperous times, to see how he interpreted his legendary life. Zhu Chong Ba experienced ups and downs in his life, and his dynasty was Dayuan. The emperor was incompetent, and Zhu Chongba's parents were among those who starved to death in Qian Qian. So he changed his name to Zhu Yuanzhang, which means killing Bird, which is well known. Zhang is a kind of jade, which can be used as a sharp weapon.
After his parents died, Zhu Yuanzhang began to rebel. He made many heroes, defeated two great enemies, Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng, and finally changed dynasties and established the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang had a rough life. He worked as a farmer, a beggar and a monk, and finally became a great emperor. After that, he also did many important things, abolishing the prime minister and the security system.
During the Yongle period, there was a man named Ma, who was unknown to everyone. When he was given the surname Zheng by the emperor and was born in the year of Taiping, he became the famous Zheng He, and his story is well known.
Emperor Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was also the last heir of Zhu Group. Daming was replaced by the Qing Dynasty after being destroyed by Huang Taiji of the Qing Dynasty.
As dynasties change, there will be constant wars and countless lives. Not what people want!
Thoughts on reading those things in the Ming dynasty 4. I recently read those things in the Ming dynasty, the Chinese dream. The author's humorous writing at that time made the book interesting to read. I read this set of seven historical novels of the Ming Dynasty which lasted for more than 200 years. There are many characters written by authors that I like and admire. But what impressed me the most was not the dozen emperors in office, nor the prime ministers in important positions, such as Zhang and Yu Qian, who spread the history of the Qing Dynasty. What I like and admire about this man is that he is a man with dreams and thoughts, a strategist, a politician and a thinker. He is the founder of "Mind Learning"-Yangming. Even in modern times, his "unity of knowledge and action" is still respected by many people of insight. I also have a dream. When I was a child, my dream was to become a military talent when I grew up, and to be able to build the latest aircraft carrier and defend the motherland. But since I read this set of books and got to know people like Yang Ming, I know that all dreams, if I don't work hard, can only be fantasies. There is no shortage of people with dreams around me. Almost all my classmates and friends have one dream or another. I want to recommend this set of books and Yangming's thoughts to you, so that you can know that ideals and dreams are not just ideas, but the most important thing is action. China's history of nearly 100 years, especially after the Sino-British War, was bullied by western powers and "Japanese" in the East, which made almost all China people have a dream of becoming a strong country. As primary school students, we all have dreams of one kind or another. It is better to study hard, do our own things in a down-to-earth manner, realize our ideals and realize our dream of becoming a powerful country.
On the first day of holiday, I was really bored at home and began to look at those things in the Ming Dynasty again. This may be the feeling he got when he read history, but it made me suddenly enlightened, especially the sentence "No matter how desperate the world is, you should be full of hope". This is an attitude towards life, seeing through everything, neither blindly optimistic nor giving up pessimism, with the feeling of knowing the ending, trying to make the process more meaningful. Isn't this the "meaning of living" I'm looking for?
When I was young, I was always in a hurry, anxious to get ahead, anxious about why my future hasn't come yet, and what to do if it doesn't. The more I grow up, the more I feel the sadness of life. After so many years, I am still so small, still a humble dust. When can I become shiny gold? Or is this the end of my life, and my fate has already been doomed? If so, what's the point of living? I used to be so anxious and impatient, so I accomplished nothing, so I was more anxious and even pessimistic. History looked at me with mocking eyes. This once wishful little creature made you live for a few years, and then you began to dream! Even I can't help laughing at myself. MUBI, will always wake up. When we wake up, it turns out that we all have to "make dirt" in the end. Why bother?
Perhaps many people have understood this truth, but my stubborn head is always struggling. Why am I alive? I always want to live a meaningful and valuable life. Always want to make an earth-shattering career and make immortal achievements. I always feel that I should do something meaningful, concentrate on important events, completely ignore those trivial things, and disdain to say "meaningless", so I feel that I should do something meaningful. If you can say what it means, I'll do it! "It's ridiculous to think about it now. Life doesn't need meaning, because to live is to live well. The beginning and the end have long been doomed, and everyone is the same. No matter whether you are an emperor or a garbage collector, there is no exception that "you turn into dung first, and then into dirt". No matter how brilliant you have been, the ending will be tragic, and even the more brilliant you are, the more tragic you will be, because you climb high and fall miserably. Our starting point and ending point are on a horizontal line, and the intermediate process fluctuates between these two points. Connecting all the points is an interesting function. Although everyone's life function is different, it is amazing that everyone's independent variables have a certain range of values, and the function values of the starting point and the end point are the same, so the greater the maximum value, the greater the gap. I don't think I can stand such a big gap, so I can only be an ordinary nobody.
I think I should do what I should do with a calm mind, be an ordinary person, live a plain life, enjoy simple happiness, and not be insatiable. This is not negative. If you can do all the things that you should do well within your ability, it is a very meaningful thing in itself, and you will certainly experience endless happiness from it.
Life is impermanent, everything is endless, and ups and downs alternate. A wise man will certainly get the happiness he wants from it.
No matter how desperate the world is, we should live hopefully and seek happiness.
Thoughts on reading those things in the Ming Dynasty 6. History turned out to be beautiful.
Slowly closing this book, the 276-year history of the Ming Dynasty once again passed in my mind like a movie. History is like this. No matter how the years change or rise and fall, it is there, so objective and fair, recording classic moments and spreading forever.
History is those charred bamboo slips? Or yellow books, broken bricks? No, no, no, history is really wonderful. Things that can be seen and touched one by one, and vivid characters one by one, constitute an unforgettable historical scene. Every scene is so fascinating that people stop, miss and can't bear to leave.
A book, an empire, a past event, through the dust of history, I seem to see the young monk of Fengyang Temple, Zhu Yuanzhang, who is just a rookie, struggling for his grand plan. Zhang Shicheng and Chen Youliang couldn't stop him, and the vigorous Northern Expedition destroyed the Great Yuan Empire across Eurasia. After three times of cleaning, the hero's in-laws were swept away, and everyone was in danger. Judy, the prince of Yan, was born in the battle of Jingnan. The Yongle ceremony made him as famous as his father, and Ren Xuan's rule created a peaceful and prosperous world. However, the battle of the civil fort almost destroyed the empire, and emperors of all dynasties worked hard. After all, they can't escape the law of historical development. Rise and fall naturally, there is no need to lament for Emperor Chongzhen who hanged Jingshan Park. The empire of the Ming Dynasty has left enough excitement for history. Sadness appeared at the curtain call.
Some people think that history is boring, but the vivid and interesting narrative makes you walk on the road of history. You never feel that you are walking alone. Walking into this book and a story is like being in a wilderness, surrounded by mountains, and the dark clouds are about to be destroyed. The ear is full of whistling wind and emotional descriptions of one picture after another, rather than cold words. Walking, I was a little tired. Sitting on the stone bench by the roadside, passers-by on both sides increased. Fang Xiaoru, who was tall and thin, was still talking, constantly teaching the young people around him, the childlike emperor Wen Jian. A noble and upright gentleman came up to him slowly, and he was fearless. "I am not afraid of death, but I want to keep my innocence in the world." Yu Qian's death showed his determination to defend the country. Laughing and laughing, Ming Wuzong, serious Zhang, you come and go, performing the most brilliant fragments and magnificent chapters in China history.
In the book, I forgot my troubles and devoted myself to them. Only by taking history as a mirror can we know the change. In the historical sea of Wang Yang, I swam to my heart's content to find my own new world.
After reading "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", I used to think that history is just broken walls and tiles, and ancient temples are yellow books, which are simply boring. When I read "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" next to the bright moon, I found that history was so wonderful!
In those days, Mingyue's brushwork was humorous. From time to time, she made a funny remark, which made us laugh. In Things of the Ming Dynasty, the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, the Yongle emperor Judy, the talented man and the great soldier Zhang appeared in turn, showing us a fascinating history of the Ming Dynasty.
What I admire most is Zhu Yuanzhang, nicknamed Zhu Chongba, who changed from a cowherd with nothing to the supreme' emperor'. Although he can reunify China with the help of Tang He, Li Shanchang, Xu Da and other brothers, I really admire his military intuition. It's like on the road to victory, you will find many keys, some antique, some glittering, but only one can open that door. When many people make decisions, they will put forward their opinions in Zhu Yuanzhang's ear and give Zhu Yuanzhang the keys in their hands for him to choose. But the most cruel part of the war was that Zhu Yuanzhang had only one chance to try. If he fails, Zhu Yuanzhang will lose everything. In that complicated environment, Zhu Yuanzhang firmly grasped the key to victory by combining form, calmly analyzing and sticking to his own point of view in numerous suggestions. His success was not a fluke; He deserved it.
Zhu Yuanzhang's attack on Zhang Shicheng was a key battle. There was an argument when discussing the battle plan. Chang Yuchun thinks that we should directly occupy Wu Dong's lair at Pingjiang, and Xu Da agrees with him. They all thought that as long as Pingjiang was captured, all the sites in Zhang Shicheng would surrender without a fight. It sounds that their analysis is very reasonable.
Zhu Yuanzhang insisted on his own point of view. He thought it would be extremely difficult to conquer Zhang Shicheng if his troops in Hangchow came to rescue him directly. If we attack Hangzhou and other places first, we can cut off Zhang Shicheng's wings, and it will naturally become a thing in the bag at Pingjiang. Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang repeatedly stressed that it is not allowed to kill people casually. Facts have proved that Zhu Yuanzhang's decision is very wise. I am amazed at his military talent!
What happened in the Ming Dynasty is really wonderful, and people still want to see it!
Reading "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has a feeling that eight wise men will inspire future generations for a lifetime, but it is also worthy of sympathy.
"Bowen, why did you abandon this book and not read it for many days?" Zheng Fuchu asked. Liu Ji bowed respectfully. "Teacher, the students have understood its essence, so they won't go into details."
No matter how clever a student is, he cannot be proud. Zheng Fuchu frowned and asked some questions in detail. Even in astronomy and geography, Liu Ji's answers are leisurely, subtle and thorough, and his thinking is better than that of thousands of students.
On the same day, Zheng Fuchu and his father said, "One day, Bowen will revitalize the Liu family and shine brilliantly."
A few years later, Zhao, a famous scholar in West Shu, said: "Only this person in Jiangzuo is smart, talented and able to learn extensively. His intelligence is comparable to Zhuge's, and he is by no means an ordinary person. He will be a great tool to save time in the future. " People who listen to Taoism are in an uproar. Who got this reputation?
Liu Ji, a famous blog post, was the first counselor of the founding of the Ming Dynasty.
"Husband, why do you want to go to Qingtian? Don't you care about the people again?"
"If you miss a minister, you will miss the country and eventually miss the people. With my own efforts, it is a drop in the bucket. " At this time, he is Liu Ji, who is in charge of Marshal's Mansion, who has been excluded by courtiers for many times, and Liu Ji who is resentful and wants to hide.
AD 1360。 The Yuan Dynasty was corrupt, the war was in turmoil, and various forces were ready to move. Liu Ji remained unmoved and lived in seclusion in the mountains.
That day, the servant came to report: "Sir, someone is visiting. He said he came to see him on the orders of Zhu Yuanzhang, commander-in-chief of the rebel army."
The wind was cold and bleak, roaring and whistling, and the yellow leaves blew off sharply, finally showing the strength of heaven.
That year, Liu Ji put forward "eighteen strategies for handling current affairs", and it was not without efforts. Because of his strategy, Zhu Yuanzhang captured the counties in Jiangxi, defeated Zhang Shicheng, and made a northern expedition to the Central Plains, thus completing the imperial industry.
Liu Ji hates evil and is full of things, so he is a thorn in the side of the "gentleman". I'm not selling myself short. I'm in Vanity Fair, so I'm going to retire if I succeed, and I'm no longer a relative of Hong Wuchu. Although Liu Ji is hiding or fleeing, he takes care of the overall situation. (Zhu Yuanzhang was suspicious because of the little people's tinkering, and the statement that "suspects don't need it, and employers don't doubt it" was best disproved by Zhu Yuanzhang. It's a pity that he met Zhu Yuanzhang, not Song Taizu. )
Alert birds will keep flying around to avoid danger, but they are the most conspicuous targets of bows and arrows. No matter how far their life journey is, it is easy to be forgotten by time. I am surprised that no one choked to death when a despicable person was eating. I wonder what Mr. Liu thinks. Feeling useless, his luck is gone.
In the eighth year of Hongwu, without Ming Taizu's "care", Liu Ji did not leave slowly. Glasses were not invented at that time, so loyalty can only be seen when people are dead. When the "people who should go" left, an emperor painfully looked back on the past and promoted the dead, which also benefited Liu's descendants.
The eyes of the Ming Dynasty are smiling. Who, in the light of irony, set up a despicable dark game?
Thoughts on Reading The Events of the Ming Dynasty 9 Speaking of China's five thousand years, the Ming Dynasty is definitely one of the most dazzling stars in the historical galaxy. Today, I'm going to talk about my feelings about those things in the Ming Dynasty.
The author of The Ming Dynasty is Yue Ming (whose real name is Shi Yue). It took him at least three years to write this book. What does this book say? What doesn't run through the protagonist of the book is mainly the thoughts, words and deeds of the Ming people. When he talks about history, he has his own unique humor, wit, philosophical thinking and ... sadness, and there is a sense of humor between the lines-although I feel that sometimes he is pretending and superficial; But I keep this thing, sadness, deep in my heart.
Reading several books "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" not only makes people feel ups and downs. We can not only think about the fate of the country from the big picture, but also admire the precious qualities of some historical figures: forbearance, courage, kindness ..... and condemn the cruelty, fear, rage and so on of some rebel thieves.
Today we will talk about the performance and function of "courage" in historical events.
Be brave, be small, and be able to speak your mind at critical moments; To put it bluntly, it is the spirit of being responsible for the rise and fall of the country!
Ok, this time we are going to talk about Yu Qian. Nevertheless, as I said, this book does not dominate the protagonist in the book. Yu Qian is only the protagonist of this incident. Although there is only one thing, we can get a lot from it.
Let's look back at the history first: throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty, the Battle of Civil Fort was also a famous battle. That battle led to the direct consumption of all front-line soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, and the whole Ming Dynasty was exposed to the enemy's fangs like a child, and the Ming Dynasty collapsed at the touch of a button. In times of crisis, most people suggested moving south and giving up the capital Zhuo Jun (now Beijing), which was undoubtedly a correct choice from the whole situation at that time. But it turns out that if this method was implemented, I am afraid that history would have changed long ago and the Ming Dynasty would have perished long ago. At the time of crisis, a person's roar brought the derailed Ming Dynasty back to the right track. "The person who suggested moving south killed!" Yu Qian shouted this brave voice, and the important task of saving the Ming Dynasty fell on his shoulders. This is a road of no return. If he loses, the whole dynasty will be finished, and he may be immortal. However, despite this, as a civilian, he stood up.
"Yu Qian, how sure are you?" "Not much." "Can you win?" I don't know. "Then why did you stand up?" "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country."
This paragraph is not a famous dialogue in history. Oh, no, technically, it doesn't exist at all. However, I believe this conversation must be Yu Qian's inner confession. This is courage.
Although we can't be as great as Yu Qian, we must appreciate the dazzling light from Yu Qian.
In daily life, difficulties are everywhere. When we meet with difficulties, we must never run away. We must learn to face them. "The battle will definitely come. If we just escape blindly, we will never reach the tomorrow we expect! " I have met many people, and when difficulties come, I can't help but shrink back; But some people will move on. When the inner cowardice strikes, they will crush it with the hammer of will, stride forward and finally overcome the difficulties. This is courage!
Courage is not just a matter of language. Real courage is action!
After reading those things in the Ming Dynasty, I feel that 10 "the cabinet doesn't believe in tears". Hearing this topic, I knew that this was a very active period for ministers. During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor only cultivated monasteries and did not work, eunuchs were suppressed, and ministers entered the "golden age". Loyal ministers and treacherous court officials confronted each other, the literati and military commanders showed their magical powers, the officialdom was proud and frustrated, the frontier fortress fought with wits, and the literary world blossomed, which was full of fun and chaos in Mr. Yue Ming's works.
Yan Song became Jishi Shu at the age of 27 and entered imperial academy. This is a bright future, but because he couldn't bear to associate with the traitors in the DPRK, he resolutely refused to be an official in the DPRK after he went home to mourn his mother.
At this time, Yan Song was in his youth, and wanted to make some contributions to the imperial court and benefit the people. He has been biding his time.
Ten years later, when the young people stepped down, it was time to serve the country, but Yan Song was left out as soon as he entered Beijing. "This year, Yan Song 41 years old. His predecessors and superiors retired, and his peers were promoted. The younger generation didn't buy his account. He has become a burden that no one cares about or manages. " Fortunately, he was promoted by powerful friends, and it was this mention that made Yan Song taste the benefits of powerful people. The tree of integrity in his heart began to shake, and the seeds of greed had sprouted. Time waits for no one, but after an unquestionable age, nothing has been achieved. In order to survive in officialdom, lose some backbone, forget what integrity is and kiss up. Anyway, my principles are still there. As for what is too much, I still want to be outspoken and correct me.
In fact, up to now, Yan Song is still saved. Only when you are in power can you basically guarantee your own life, and only when you please the emperor and the cabinet can you be promoted. As long as you work for people and care about the world, you can still be regarded as a good minister. It's a pity that Yan Song completely lost his principles. He formed the official standard values of "shameless, unscrupulous, willing to bear the burden of the world for the benefit". No wonder. Yan Song is young and talented, and treacherous court officials are in power and frustrated; Come back in a year without doubt, but be left out in the cold and depressed; He is successful only when his best friend succeeds in promoting him from the top. And these so-called failures and successes are inseparable from money and power. He's almost there. He's really scared. What does the whole world have to do with me? Getting your own interests is the right way. So greed never returned, and then he fell, and his property was copied for more than a month.
Yan Song compromised system, power, desire and humanity. He forgot all about serving the country, only selling titles and titles, and finally the cabinet records ended up in the streets and died in the wilderness. That's all he can say.
Things in the Ming Dynasty are easy to understand and grounded. Once the boring history is corrected, the whole historical process is particularly ups and downs through interesting language expression, which is as fascinating as a novel. It opened the door of Daming for us. We can look at those vivid figures and concrete events with critical thinking, form our own opinions and experiences, and evaluate the whole dynasty more comprehensively.
