Six-year-old Cai Wenji heard the sound of the piano in the distance and immediately told her father that the second string was broken. Cai Yong was very surprised, so he deliberately broke the fourth string, and as a result, Cai Wenji accurately said the string that Cai Yong broke. Cai Yong realized at this time that his daughter probably had an amazing talent for musical rhythm, so he began to guide Cai Wenji's piano skills, and Cai Wenji soon became a well-known piano girl. However, she did not have a happy home, the first husband died early, Cai Wenji was plundered by the Xiongnu, became the concubine of King Zuoxian, bore him 2 children, and lived in the Xiongnu land for 12 years. Later, cao cao unified the north, and only then did he redeem Cai Wenji with a lot of money and promised her to Dong Qi, but Dong Qi soon committed a crime and died, and Cai Wenji bitterly pleaded with Cao Cao and prostrated his head to plead guilty
"Xiang Qi", this little child is amazing, he is the teacher of the Confucian master "Confucius". Once, Confucius and his students drove by, and met several children who were building castles with sand, so they prepared to take a detour, and one of them asked: Why take a detour? Confucius said: Afraid of crushing your "castle", the child said: Isn't the castle for the carriage to go? Isn't it unreasonable to see the city without entering and walking around the city? Therefore, Confucius felt that this child was not ordinary, so he tried a little, found that this child's thinking was different from ordinary people, the words he said were very wise, and then he worshiped him as a teacher, this child was "Xiang Qi", and since then the child's name has spread throughout the countries, but later he was killed in the struggle of the princes, did not live to adulthood, and died only 12 years old.
Ganluo should be very familiar to everyone, when he was 12 years old, he sent his own envoy to the Zhao State, effortlessly captured more than a dozen cities for the Qin State, was given the title of Shangqing (equivalent to The Prime Minister) by Qin Shi Huang, obtained a fief, and became the youngest prime minister in history, and Lü Buwei also praised him. However, the strange thing is that Ganluo just became the minister and received the reward, and disappeared from the history books, and there is no longer any record of him, and it is said that Ganluo died in this year. Such a genius who shocked the world has "disappeared" so quietly, there must be something ulterior in it.
The three prodigies of the ancient masters were all extremely intelligent, so why didn't any of them live past the age of 18?
