Cicero, a contemporary of Sima Qian, said: The wise are guided by reason, ordinary people are guided by experience, and beasts are guided by intuition.
However, the most powerful beast of that era was not Cicero, let alone Sima Qian, but the Han Wu Emperor, Liu Che, who was later recorded in the annals of history.
One
Since it is a beast, it naturally has a sensitivity beyond ordinary people.
In 92 BC, that is, the first year of Zhenghe, Liu Che, who had been busy for a day, was preparing to rest in Jianzhang Palace, when suddenly a figure skipped through the window, as if the visitor was not good.
A "escort" resounded throughout the Jianzhang Palace, which shook the entire Han Empire and the prelude to the beginning of the uneven years.
Was Emperor Wu of Han's intuition wrong? He's right!
The shadow was indeed an assassin. Finding that it had been exposed, the assassin hurriedly abandoned his sword and fled, and with a strong martial art, he actually escaped smoothly.
Since then, Emperor Wu of Han has been restless in his sleep, and every day he thinks in his heart: There are always untouchables who want to harm you.
Immediately, the witchcraft incident broke out.
Two
I don't know when it began, the Chinese people always questioned whether the martial arts were fake, in fact, in the Western Han Dynasty, chivalry did exist, and these people were either armed with special skills, such as the unknown assassin in front of them. Either eloquent and strategic, such as the great hero Guo Xie.
However, in the Han Dynasty, it was not an easy task to be a hero, and for the sake of harmony, Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty issued a "ban on chivalry" early in the morning: everything caught a chivalrous guest, and there was no forgiveness for killing.
For example, Zhu Anshi, who is known as the Yangling Hero, is an unlucky ghost who is inexplicably lying and shot. It turned out that Gongsun Jingsheng, the son of Gongsun He, had violated the law, so Gongsun He, who was scheming and calculating, arrested the great hero Zhu Anshi and atone for his son's sins.
Seeing that he was about to become a scapegoat, Zhu Anshi certainly did not want to sit still, so he wrote a report letter with a big stroke of his pen: Gongsun Jingsheng had an affair with Princess Yangshi, and buried a wooden man on the chi road to curse the emperor.
Yes, you may not be happy to say it, but the great heroes of ancient times, in addition to being practitioners, often can write articles. There are also things that make you more unhappy, and the heroes often play lobbyists and do heroic deeds. Therefore, Guo Jing and Yang Guo, who have no culture, really cannot be regarded as good heroes, after all, the cultural achievements are not passed.
Zhu Anshi is a good chivalrous guest, Liu Che read the report letter, burst into anger, thoroughly investigated Gongsun He father and son, and finally pulled out the mud with the radish, all the parties involved: kill without forgiveness. Gongsun He's father and son deserved it, even the princess did not let go, and as for Wei Qing's son, who was implicated, he also killed them all.
What Liu Che hated was not the chaos of the aristocrats' private lives, but that some people actually wanted to deceive themselves. The so-called witches can be simply understood as "tying villains", and it is Liu Che who is pierced. Whether it works or not, the intention is sinister.
Perhaps Emperor Wu of Han was really old, and the demons and demons poured out, threatening the entire Chang'an City, and even the safety of the entire Han Empire.
Liu Che is a decisive killer, so his wrists are also very light: there is no forgiveness for killing. Don't think that you are only killing outsiders, but what about your own family? The answer is to kill without mistake, even if it is the prince.
Doubt is like a ghost, once released, it is difficult to recover, and doubt will fill the heart of the whole person. Liu Che didn't know that compared to the witches, the heart demons were the most terrifying.
On this day, Liu Che had a daydream, he dreamed that there were thousands of wooden people holding sticks trying to attack him, Huo Ran woke up, and from then on he felt physically uncomfortable, mentally confused, and his memory was greatly reduced.
From a scientific point of view, Liu Che may have had nightmares because of his age, physical discomfort, and too much psychological pressure.
However, someone around him told him that the prince had deceived him.
Intuitively, Liu Che judged that there was something wrong with the crown prince Liu Zhi, so he ordered a thorough investigation, and the result was that Liu Zhi and his children were all killed due to the rebellion of the witches. Only the infant emperor survived, and after he was exiled to the people, he was called Liu Yiji.
After some hardships, he became the later Emperor Xuan of Han.
Three
Intuition was a good thing, and Liu Che relied on intuition to evade the assassin's assassination. Intuition is a bad thing, and Liu Che relies on intuition to cause countless wrongs.
What the hell is intuition?
People have two kinds of thinking, one is intuitive, emotional, mechanical thinking. The other is conscious, rational, slow, logical thinking.
Liu Che is a keen emperor, with years of struggle, he has experience that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and he has already cultivated extraordinary intuition, so once there is a wind and grass, he can react quickly.
But no one's intuition in this world is 100 percent psychic because it is sensual and mechanical.
For example, the public's consistent understanding of oniguzi is that "oniguzi is teaching people to learn bad, it is feudal scum", so it is concluded that oniguzi is all conspiracy and trickery.
From hearing to judging, it often takes only one second, and this behavior is very "Liu Che". Isn't this just "suspecting a neighbor stealing an axe"? Because neighbors are like thieves, they intuitively judge that neighbors are thieves.
Is there something missing? Yes, evidence, logic and thinking. It is okay to speculate and question, but you can't take the possibility of speculation as the truth of the matter. That is, the intuition may be right, but if you don't think about it, you are essentially playing a rogue.
In this regard, we would like to give Oniguzi a thumbs up. If you have really read "Ghost Valley", you will find that in fact, Ghost Valley is the earliest Chinese rhetorical work, an enlightenment book on eloquence and strategy.
This is to teach you to learn badly, in fact, to teach you how to advise the leader.
Therefore, oniguzi talks about speculation, pay attention to speculation is not speculation, first collect information through speculation, and then test the needs of leaders through magic, and after getting a response, they will make suggestions. Speculation is a technique, but also a kind of rational thinking.
Four
Intuition, a lot of times, is "I think". Movies have montage techniques, in fact, there are speaking and writing. Let's do a test, the known conditions are as follows:
After graduating, Xiao K worked in the library and especially liked the study of writing.
Please ask which option below is what Little K later works on.
First, Little K entered the school and became a Chinese teacher.
Second, after Xiao K entered the school, he first became a teacher, and later became a writer through continuous training.
Intuitively, which one do you think is true? Option B seems more logical, even with a little bit of storytelling, very inspirational, more like the truth. But the real option is A.
In fact, there are many intuitive pitfalls in life. For another example, a certain cloud has believed that English is very important since childhood, often goes to the West Lake to find foreigners to practice English, and becomes an English teacher when he grows up, teaching in schools for many years. After some hard work, did he become a senior English teacher?
No, he became the richest man with "no interest in money."
Some things, you take for granted, are logical, but in fact, life is always full of surprises and uncertainties.
Five
As we all know, Ashin's main business is to read the Ghost Valley. With perceptual intuition and rational analysis, what kind of teachings will Oniguzi teach us?
Oniguzi said: Young people, the investigation of information is often seen through the eyes and listened through the ears. But you have to know that what your eyes see is not necessarily true, it may be that someone else deliberately let you see it. What the ear hears is not necessarily true, it may be that someone else deliberately lets you hear it.
The original words are: Eyes and ears, Sasuke of the Heart, so peeping to see the evil. Therefore, it is said that the tune should be followed, and the way should be moved. Seeing is not necessarily true, and hearing is not necessarily true. Because people tend to believe what the eyes see and the ears hear, but forget to think independently with their hearts.
Sometimes, what is intuitive may be right, but it is more likely to be wrong. Don't be self-righteous, remember the good words of oniguzi to help you eat a lot less!
