In the vast history of China, there is a name immortalized by its extraordinary wisdom - Ganluo, a prodigy politician during the Warring States period. An ordinary family, an extraordinary teenager, his story is like a wonderful drama, slowly unfolding on the ancient political stage.
Ganluo, a talented child, has shown extraordinary wisdom since he was a child under the influence of his grandfather Gan Mao. In his young heart, the seeds of politics and culture had been planted, which took root in the fertile soil of the years and eventually grew into tall trees.
However, the path to such a prodigy's growth was not all smooth sailing. In the Qin state, a stage full of intrigue and struggle, how did Gan Luo show his talent step by step, solve one problem after another, and become a politician admired by everyone? How did he skillfully display his wisdom and wit in the absurd request of the Qin king to eat the eggs laid by the rooster, and thus won a higher status?
Ganro: A prodigy politician during the Warring States period
During the Warring States Period, many outstanding figures emerged on China's political scene, among which the story of Ganluo is the most legendary. Gan Luo was born into a political family, and his grandfather, Gan Mao, was a famous prime minister of the Qin state, known for his justice, incorruptibility, and political wisdom. The political atmosphere of the family and the words and deeds of his grandfather had a profound impact on Ganro's growth.
Ganro showed great intellect from an early age. Not only did he have a keen interest in books, but he also had a natural sense of politics and military affairs in the Qin state.
He often listened to his grandfather talk about the affairs of the court, and had his own unique views on the political situation and strategies of the Qin state. Gan Mao often marveled at his grandson's wisdom and often praised Gan Luo's ingenuity in front of relatives and friends.
It was in this environment that Ganro's political talent was fully cultivated and developed. He was not only proficient in poetry and books, but also had in-depth studies of law, military affairs, and diplomacy. His fame began to spread both inside and outside the Qin court, and many began to look at the young prodigy in awe.
Ganluo's wisdom eventually caught the attention of the King of Qin. At a banquet, Gan Luo was introduced to the King of Qin. Intrigued by his intelligence, the King of Qin decided to test him.
"Gan Luo, I have heard that you are very intelligent, can you solve a difficult problem for me?" asked King Qin.
"Your Majesty, please. Gan Luo said respectfully.
"Why does the moon always appear at night?" asked King Qin a plausible question.
Ganro smiled and replied, "Your Majesty, the moon doesn't always appear at night. It follows the laws of nature, and sometimes the sun and the moon shine together. It appears, like the advice of a wise man, not from time to time, but at the right time. ”
The King of Qin was overjoyed when he heard this, and was full of praise for Ganluo's answer. Impressed by Ganro's wisdom and courage, he decided to keep Ganro by his side to observe his talents in depth.
In the days that followed, Ganro's performance lived up to expectations. He not only performed well in the court proceedings, but also appeared to be at ease in handling national affairs. His advice helped the Qin state solve difficult problems many times, and the king of Qin appreciated his talents more and more.
Ganro's rise in the court also aroused the jealousy of some officials. They were both in awe and resentful of the young prodigy. Ganluo, however, always maintained humility and tact, not only winning the trust of the King of Qin, but also gradually gaining the respect of more officials.
During his political career, Ganluo faced many trials and challenges, but he was always able to defuse crises and strengthen Qin's national strength with extraordinary wisdom and courage. His fame gradually spread throughout the Qin State and even throughout the Warring States, and he became a respected young politician.
Wise coping: The problem of Ganro laying eggs with the rooster
Ganluo's prestige in the Qin court gradually rose, until an unexpected incident pushed him to the forefront of history. This incident is precisely related to the absurd request of the King of Qin to eat the eggs laid by the rooster.
One day, King Qin was distraught by a strange dream. He dreamed of the moon setting, the flowers withering, the waters drying up, and the mountains collapsing.
This made the king of Qin extremely uneasy, and he ordered the ministers of the entire court to interpret his dreams for him. However, no one dared to speak, and the entire Jinluan Hall was silent. The king of Qin was displeased and gave the ministers three days to interpret the dream, otherwise they would be held responsible.
Gan Mao, Ganro's grandfather, was also one of the officials of the time. Faced with such a problem, Gan Mao was very anxious. Seeing his grandfather so sad, Ganro asked what had happened. Upon learning of King Qin's orders, Gan Luo showed his innate wisdom and courage.
"Grandfather, don't worry, I have a way to solve this problem. Ganro said confidently.
Three days later, Gan Mao appeared on the Jinluan Hall with Gan Luo. King Qin asked about the interpretation of dreams, but no one dared to say anything about the ministers. At this time, Gan Luo stood up and said to King Qin, "Your Majesty, your dream is not a bad omen, but an auspicious omen. 'The claws of the sea dry dragon are now clawed' means that the country will be more prosperous and powerful; 'The landslide and hope for peace' indicates that the world will return to peace; 'The moon falls and the emperor is now the star' means that His Majesty's wisdom will illuminate the whole country; and 'The flowers are prosperous' indicates that the country will usher in new vitality and prosperity. ”
King Qin was in a good mood after hearing this, and was very satisfied with Ganluo's interpretation of the dream.
However, at this moment, a minister took the opportunity to frame Gan Mao in front of the King of Qin, saying that Gan Mao lived a long and healthy life because of eating male eggs. The King of Qin was curious about this, so he asked Gan Mao if this was really the case. Gan Mao replied, "Your Majesty, I have never seen a rooster lay eggs, let alone eat them. "The king of Qin thought that Gan Mao was hiding the truth, so he made a ridiculous request to make Gan Mao provide male eggs within three days.
Seeing this, Ganro immediately decided to deal with this problem in the place of his grandfather. Three days later, he appeared in the court again, and in the face of King Qin's questioning, he responded in an innocent but witty way: "Your Majesty, my grandfather is 'giving birth' at home, so I can't come to see Your Majesty today." When King Qin heard this, he laughed and thought that Ganluo was talking nonsense, but Ganluo's answer had a deep meaning.
"Your Majesty, since men in the world don't give birth to children, how can a rooster lay eggs?" asked Gan Luo rhetorically.
After hearing this, King Qin suddenly became enlightened and deeply sighed at Ganluo's ingenuity. This answer not only resolved Gan Mao's crisis, but also strengthened Gan Luo's position in the heart of King Qin.
From then on, Ganluo not only won more respect in the court, but also made the Qin king trust and rely on his wisdom more. It was this incident that made Gan Luo an important position in the political history of the Qin State and made him an admirable prodigy politician.
Glory and retreat: Ganro's subsequent development and ending
Ganro answers through the wisdom of the rooster laying eggs, not only freeing his grandfather Ganmao, but also bringing his own popularity to unprecedented heights. After that, Ganluo's position in the court became more solid, and he became an indispensable advisor to the Qin king.
His intellect and courage solved many thorny problems for the Qin state, and he was able to come up with efficient strategies in both foreign and domestic affairs, which allowed the Qin state to gradually occupy a leading position among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States.
As time passed, Ganluo's reputation became more and more resounding in the Qin State and even in the entire Warring States. He not only showed extraordinary talent in politics, but also had in-depth attainments in literature, history, and philosophy. However, as his power grew, he also began to feel all kinds of pressure and jealousy from inside and outside the court.
In the middle of his political career, he began to feel physically and mentally exhausted. He found that as his status grew, so did the complexity and brutality of politics. The intrigues and undercurrents in the court made him feel exhausted. Gan Luo began to think about his future and the fate of the Qin state.
Gan Luo pondered for a long time, deeply feeling the contradiction between the burden of the country and the ideals of the individual. He decided to gradually fade out of the political arena and devote his time and energy to academic and cultural undertakings, as a way to enrich his soul and enrich the cultural heritage of the Qin state.
For the rest of his life, Ganro wrote several books covering the fields of politics, history, philosophy, and literature. His writings were highly regarded and studied by later generations of scholars, and became a cultural treasure of the Warring States period.
Although Ganro chose to retire in his later years, his political talents and wisdom are still talked about by later generations. His story has become a legend in Chinese history, inspiring countless others to follow. Ganluo's life is not only the ultimate display of personal wisdom and ability, but also a profound embodiment of the responsibility of the times and cultural inheritance.
Although Ganluo's fate is not clearly recorded in the history books, his contributions to the political and cultural development of the Qin state, as well as his wisdom and talent, are undoubtedly deeply engraved in the long river of Chinese history.
epilogue
Ganluo's wisdom and courage left a strong mark on the political history of the Qin State, and his political career was full of suspense and challenges, and every decision he made reflected the maturity and wisdom of a teenager beyond his years.

However, just as his political career was in full swing, he chose to quit and devote the rest of his life to the broader academic and cultural spheres. This decision to self-exile from the pinnacle of power reflects his profound philosophy of life and transcendence.
