There was such a child in the Warring States period, his grandfather was a prime minister, his father was an official in the dynasty, one day the King of Qin embarrassed his father and said that he wanted to eat the eggs laid by the rooster, which made the father no wonder, after returning home, his son listened to it but said that this matter was simple, tomorrow he went to the King of Qin to say, it will definitely be solved.
His father did not believe it, but did not admit that his son actually solved this problem, not only that, but also let everyone dare not despise his youth, and finally the child was surprised again that everyone had made great achievements at a young age, so the king of Qin, Dayue, at the age of twelve, worshiped the official and became a well-known politician in the Warring States period, and his story was constantly spread.
Ganro
Puzzle: How can a rooster lay eggs?
We do not know in the year in which the prodigy Ganluo was born, among the many historical prodigies, his deeds are one of the most dazzling, Ganluo has been intelligent since childhood and the cultivation of his family, he has a mind and wisdom beyond his peers.
This is also inseparable from Ganluo's grandfather, Ganluo's grandfather was the famous Warring States general Ganmao, who was also a highly famous minister during the Warring States period, and after living with his grandfather for a period of time, Ganluo learned a lot of useful things.
The birth year of Ganluo's grandfather Ganmao is also unknown, but we know that he was a figure in the period of King Hui of Qin. Gan Mao was originally from the Chu state, and he was also intelligent since childhood, and he also inherited from him when he wanted to come to Ganluo, and this family was brave and resourceful.
When he was in the Chu Kingdom, Gan Mao studied with Mr. Shi Ju, who was learning the Hundred Schools of Arts, after which Gan Mao thought that he could already go out and have a walk, so he came to the Qin State.
GanMao
Gan Mao was a protégé at the home of Zhang Yi, the minister of the State of Qin, and he was quite talented and temperamental, and soon got Zhang Yi's blue eyes, and Zhang Yi recommended him to the then monarch of the Qin State, King Hui of Qin. Gan Mao, who had been recommended by Zhang Yi and another person, Li Li, was finally noticed by King Qin Hui, but here in King Qin Hui, Gan Mao did not have the opportunity to make any great achievements, so he was not reused.
After the death of King Hui of Qin, King Wu of Qin took the throne, and Zhang Yi, who had the grace of knowing him, was not favored by King Qin Wu, and The future of Gan Mao was slim, but soon Gan Mao ushered in an opportunity, and he also grasped it well and directly became the left chancellor of King Qin Wu.
Gan Mao made a lot of contributions to King Qin Wu, and it was good to develop in this way, but he did not expect that this King of Qin Wu would kill himself, and then Gan Mao continued to work for King Qin Zhao, but he was ostracized by Xiang Shou and Gongsun Yi, who told King Qin Zhao all day about his bad words. So in order to save his life, Gan Mao found a way to escape to the State of Qi.
King Wu of Qin
Gan Mao fled, his son and grandson were still there, so Gan Mao asked Su Dai for help, and Su Dai successfully persuaded the King of Qin, who also used the position of Shangqing to ask Gan Mao to return, but Gan Mao refused, but went to the State of Qi, which also invited him. Ganmao did not return, and Ganmao's son, Ganluo's father, actually found an official position in the court.
It was probably through Ganmao's light that Ganluo's father could have a position, but the King of Qin didn't like him much. Ganluo's father did not inherit any advantages from his father, and he was really unknown compared with his own son and his own father. If it were not for the reputation of GanMao's son, it would have been difficult to enter the court as an official.
Perhaps it was also because the King of Qin did not treat him very well, and after going up to the court one day, the King of Qin suddenly found him, and Ganluo's father was constantly thinking in his heart, what was this King of Qin looking for him? This was the first time, he couldn't help but be a little nervous, but he didn't dare to delay half a minute, and immediately rushed over.
After arriving, Ganluo's father secretly glanced at it, only to see the King of Qin sitting there, without speaking or expression, ganluo's father could only honestly dare not move more than halfway. When the King of Qin saw him like this, he began to ask him, "You are an official in the court, how does this king treat you?" ”
When Ganluo's father heard this, he immediately replied, "It is as great as a mountain to me!" King Qin smiled and seemed very happy after hearing this, and continued, "Then, since this is the case, you will help me do this, are you willing?" Ganluo's father, who dared to refuse, immediately bowed his head, and then said very sincerely: "As long as it is for Your Majesty, let me die willingly!" ”
The King of Qin smiled even more deeply, he frowned slightly and showed a somewhat worried look, and continued to Ganluo's father: "The widow has recently become ill, saying that only by eating male eggs can it be cured, and I will limit you to find it within three days, otherwise I will punish you with death to apologize." ”
Ganluo's father felt helpless in his heart when he heard this, how could he find it, even if it was three days, it would be too short. Although he knew in his heart that he could not complete it at all, he did not dare to refuse, so he had to agree to it.
When he got home, Ganluo's father didn't eat or drink tea or food, so he sat there and sighed. If the King of Qin wanted to punish him, it would be better to punish him directly, what was the difference between such a situation and making people wait for death? It is nothing that he is punished, but I am afraid that it will also affect his wife and children, Ganluo's father, sitting at the table with a sad eyebrow, and Ganluo will go forward to ask his father when he sees it.
Still
Ganluo: "Why did my father frown, but what happened to the DPRK?" Ganluo looked at his son and told him about today's events. After hearing this, Ganluo did not have the same sad face as his father, but a face of self-confidence, he stood up straight and said to his father: "Father don't have to worry, when the three days come, I will face the saint, and I will be able to solve it." ”
Ganluo's father was uncertain, but seeing that his son was so sure, he had to choose to believe.
He had always known that his son was smarter than ordinary people, and it might be foolproof to give him. Ganluo was never a coward, and he worshipped Lü Buwei when he was young and became Lü Buwei's vassal, but Lü Buwei did not use him seriously, because he felt that he was too young and inexperienced.
Lü Buwei
When the time of the three days came, the King of Qin did summon Ganluo's father alone again, but Ganluo reassured his father to stay at home and go for him. Ganluo entered the palace and met the King of Qin, who looked like his father and asked, "Why didn't your father come?" ”
Ganluo replied unashamedly, "My father was recuperating at home and it was inconvenient for him to come, so I took my place." The King of Qin did not spare him, and he whispered, "I see that he did not finish the things I handed over to him and did not dare to come to see me!" Ganluo replied, "Not so, Your Majesty, my father gave birth to a child last night, and he was too hard to come." ”
The King of Qin was furious when he heard this, and he loudly questioned Ganluo: "Nonsense! How can a man have children! Are you kidding me? Provoking the King of Qin to be angry, Ganluo still did not see the slightest nervousness, he knelt on the ground, but his eyes were not afraid, Ganluo crouched on the ground and said to the King of Qin: "Indeed, Your Majesty, since men cannot have children, how can the rooster lay eggs?" ”
The King of Qin was dumbfounded, this child did not look at the young age, but was so astute, not only did not shrink when facing him, but also could reasonably think of countermeasures to defend his father, the King of Qin at this time did not get angry because he could not come to the stage, but praised him quite much.
After returning home, Ganluo's father immediately came to ask Ganluo what was going on, and Ganluo told his father the ins and outs, and his father let go of the heart that had been hanging. After this incident, Ganluo continued to work as a courtier under Lü Buwei's disciples, but there was still no chance for him to play his fists and feet until Lü Buwei encountered a problem.
The prodigy twelve officials worship the prime minister
This happened in the same year. One day, Ganluo heard that Lü Buwei had a troublesome matter that made him feel very sad. What's going on? It turned out that Qin wanted to join forces with Yan to attack the State of Zhao and expand the territory of the Hejian region. For this reason, he wanted to send Zhang Tang to the Yan kingdom so that the two countries could trust each other, but who admitted that Zhang Tang was unwilling to listen to Lü Buwei's words and go to the Yan country to be the prime minister.
Three years ago, the King of Qin asked Cai Ze to be the prime minister of the Yan kingdom, and now the king of Yan sent prince Dan to the Qin state as a proton, and the qin state now wants to cut down Zhao and wants to join forces with the Yan state, so he sent Zhang Tang to the Yan kingdom to be the prime minister.
But this Zhang Tang actually refused, saying that he had led troops to fight Zhao Guo during the qin zhao king, so zhao guo especially hated him, and said that if anyone caught him, he would give him territory. If he went to the Yan Kingdom, he would have to go through the Zhao Kingdom, so he didn't want to go.
Lü Buwei heard this and got up happily, this was clearly a prevarication, but he was not good at persecuting Zhang Tang, and could only return indignantly. Back in his mansion, Ganluo saw that Lü Buwei's face was not good, and he knew that something must have provoked him.
Ganluo did not want to avoid the wind, but went forward to inquire, Lü Buwei was trying to find someone to talk about this matter, and when ganluo asked, he told Zhang Tang's unwillingness to go to the Yan kingdom. After listening, Ganluo pondered and said to Lü Buwei, "Lord, it is better for me to persuade Zhang Tang, I will be able to persuade him." ”
Lü Buwei was a little impatient, he couldn't persuade him, how can you persuade a yellow-mouthed child, Lü Buwei was greatly disdainful of this, but Ganluo did not give up on this, he said to Lü Buwei: "Xiang Qi can be Confucius's teacher when he is seven years old, I am now twelve years older, why can't I let me try it?" In the end, he finally persuaded Lü Buwei to give him a chance.
Ganluo went to Zhang Tang and went straight to the subject after indicating his intentions. Ganluo said to Zhang Tang, "I want to ask you a few questions first, can I?" Zhang Tangshuang quickly responded, and Ganluo asked him, "Do you think that you have the greatest merit compared to Wu An Junbaiqi?" ”
Zhang Tang replied decisively: "Of course, Wu Anjun's meritorious deeds are the greatest, he once went south to defeat the powerful Chu state, and then went north to deter Yan and Zhao, and he has never been defeated in his life, I don't know how many cities he has captured, how can I compare with him?"
Zhang Tang
Ganluo: "So, since this is the case, do you think that compared with the former Marquis Fan Ju of Ying and the current Marquis Lü Buwei of Wenxin, who has a higher status and greater power?" Zhang Tang: "That should be Wen Xinhou." After hearing this, Ganluo looked up slightly and asked Zhang Tang, "Do you really think that it is better to be waiting than Wen Xinhou?" ”
Zhang Tang replied again in the affirmative without hesitation. Ganro's purpose was achieved, and he continued to say to him:
"You also know that Ying Hou wanted to attack the Zhao Kingdom at the beginning, but Wu Anjun was reluctant to go, and as a result, he was killed just after leaving Xianyang and walking only seven miles." Now that Wen Xinhou has asked you to be the prime minister of the Yan Kingdom, you are not willing to go, so I don't know if I will have the opportunity to see you again in the future. ”
Zhang Tang immediately heard the sound of the strings, he played a cold war, immediately figured it out, Ganluo's threat of not seeing the sharp edge really worked, Zhang Tang immediately promised Lü Buwei, and soon packed up his luggage to go to the Yan kingdom. Lü Buwei was a little surprised to learn that Ganluo really persuaded Zhang Tang, and he also had some improvements, it seems that Ganluo is worthy of Ganmao, and it cannot be underestimated.
Before Zhang Tang set off, Ganluo came to Lü Buwei again, and he said to Lü Buwei: "Can I take five cars to Zhao Guo first and talk about it for Zhang Tang and Zhao Guo?" ”
Lü Buwei did not have any doubts, and immediately told the king of Qin about this matter, saying that there was such a child who was Ganmao's grandson, although he was young but very strategic, zhang Tang did not want to go to the yan country to be the prime minister, as soon as he went to persuade, Zhang Tang agreed, and now he wanted to go to the zhao country before Zhang Tang set off.
After hearing this, the King of Qin immediately summoned Ganluo and officially sent him as an envoy to the State of Zhao. When the State of Zhao heard that the State of Qin was going to send an envoy, King Xiang of Zhao personally came out to greet him. He saw that the emissaries of the Qin Kingdom this time were very young and not very old, and although they were a little surprised, they did not neglect Ganluo. Ganluo then spoke alone with King Xiang of Zhao.
Ganluo asked King Xiang of Zhao if he had heard that Prince Dan of the State of Yan had come to the State of Qin to do protons, and King Xiang of Zhao had naturally heard about it, and he also knew that the State of Yan and the State of Qin wanted to join forces to cut down Zhao. Ganluo and King Xiang of Zhao told Zhang Tang about His intention to go to the State of Yan to become prime minister, at this time the two countries of Yan and Qin trusted each other, and if they united, it would be very powerful, and then the State of Zhao would be in danger.
Where did King Zhao Xiang understand this, which was exactly what he was worried about. Then Ganluo continued: The reason why the Qin state and the Yan state have reached such a mutual friendship is because the Qin state wants to expand the territory around the river by attacking the Zhao state, so you might as well promise to give me the five cities of the Qin state, and I will go back to persuade them to let Prince Dan go back, and then we will unite to attack the Yan state.
King Zhao Xiang weighed it up and immediately agreed. After Ganluo returned to Qin, he told the King of Qin about the agreement with the State of Zhao, so Prince Dan was released, and then the State of Zhao attacked the State of Yan and obtained more than thirty cities, and divided eleven of them among them to the State of Qin. In this way, Ganluo easily won fifteen cities for the Qin state.
The King of Qin was greatly pleased to receive the news, and immediately made Ganluo Shangqing, that is, the Minister of State, ganluo was only twelve years old, and he was the youngest minister in history. Ganluo had such achievements at such a young age, and since then stories about him have been circulating everywhere, and if the prodigy is mentioned, there must be Ganluo's name in it.
But the story of him stops there, and how Ganluo lived after becoming Shangqing is not recorded in the historical records. There is a legend that Ganro died shortly after the visit, but this claim comes from folklore and novelists, so the credibility is not high, and it would be a pity if the prodigy really died when he first appeared at the age of twelve.
In fact, although there is no record, there are still many relics left by Ganluo throughout the country, and the origin of this statement seems to be a bit ridiculous, but it is also more based on the fiction of novelists and there are many ancient records.
It is not a little funny that there are as many as twelve tomb sites claimed to be Ganluo tombs in various parts of the country, and there must be eleven of them here that are fake, or they are all fake.
It's just that it shouldn't be too absolute, many of these Ganluo tombs are really incompatible with Ganluo, but there are also some cemeteries that have some credibility because of their location and other reasons, but the credibility is not high.
Then the reason why Ganluo can emerge so many tombs at once is probably only for a few reasons, one is that Ganluo left traces of activity everywhere before his death, or the descendants of Ganluo's descendants praised their ancestors or other reasons, resulting in the appearance of Ganluo tombs in some places that are simply impossible to have anything to do with Ganluo.
In short, we dare not make any assertions, but the most unbelievable of the many accounts is probably that Ganluo died shortly after he was crowned shangqing at the age of twelve.
summary
So the prodigy became a minister at the age of twelve, solved the disaster of killing his father by strategizing, and persuaded Zhang Tang, who did not want to go to Yan, and even more cleverly, but a few words for the Qin kingdom came to fifteen cities. It's unbelievable that a twelve-year-old child has done something that some people in their fifties and sixties might not be able to do.
The story of this legendary prodigy must have been more or less exaggerated in the spread of hundreds of years, but there is no doubt that Ganluo recorded in the historical records was indeed accomplished at a young age.
It's just that we don't know how this prodigy ended up, there are many ways to die, the most common rumor is that he was killed, maybe the tree is a big move, such a young genius who is not afraid of it, especially those who are not right in their hearts hate him.
