A small official from a civilian background, and finally trampled on the pinnacle of life; A generation of powerful ministers, but before dying, they only hoped for the simple happiness of ordinary people. The life of Li Sili, the prime minister of the Great Qin State, seems to go against common sense, but inadvertently reveals the ultimate meaning of life.
Now, Li Si's regret has become a lesson in the eternal history books, and his fate has also triggered countless people in the world to reflect: what is the most precious happiness in the world?
The book "Zizhi Tongjian" records the tragic life of Li Si, the prime minister. Through his experiences, it is not difficult for us to get a glimpse of the values in life that are easily overlooked.
The territory of Great Qin is vast, and Li Siquan, who was in charge of the national policy back then, leaned towards the government and the opposition. This former commoner, who started as a small official in the Chu State, made him understand the importance of "environment" by a gluttonous mouse, and thus embarked on the road of self-cultivation and learning.
With his excellent knowledge and chances, Li Si not only won the appreciation of the powerful minister Lü Buwei, but also was instructed to customize a series of measures to make the emerging Qin state of Puzhu quickly strong. He proposed the abolition of the feudal system and the unification of the writing system, and conspired to participate in Hu Hai's seizure of the throne.
Power is like a poisonous rose, and Li Si is finally victimized by his former cronies. Before arriving at the execution ground, he looked at his beloved son who went to Huangquan with him, and burst into tears: "I want to swim with you again in the suburbs of Caicheng, leading the yellow dog to chase the rabbit, but there is no such opportunity."
At that moment, the honor of power is just a flash in the pan, and what is precious is the joy of family with the beloved. It's a pity that he was young and vigorous, and gave up the happiness around him for the sake of his ideals.
I couldn't agree more. When I was younger, I used to stay away from home for my career, hoping that my children would have a better future when they grew up. But time flies, and when I finally entered the twilight of life, I found that the most precious thing was those family moments that had passed.
I still miss the days when I rode my bike to take my kids to school. Although the life is poor, the children's laughter is like a heavenly sound, full of happiness. Unfortunately, I didn't realize this at the time, and I only cared about pursuing fame and utilitarianism.
Now, I am old and know my destiny. The beauty in the world is all moments, we can only grasp the present, live in the present, and reflect on the value of life from time to time. Li Si's regret warns us not to live up to the family affection and happiness of the moment.
Life is short, but as long as you balance your life and allocate your time wisely, you will definitely make every day brilliant and meaningful. When we grow old, we look back on the journey without regrets, and we can proudly say, "I did my best and did not waste my time."
The true meaning of life lies in cherishing the people in front of you. The top priority is to stay with your loved ones, embrace each other tightly, and live out the meaning and value of life every day.
