Various harsh and cruel punishments(刀鋸鼎鑊)
Su Shi is one of the most famous writers in
Chinese history. He was also a famous politician.
His poetry and prose are very well written.
His calligraphy and painting are also very good.
When he was young, he wrote an article
about the inspiration he felt after reading the biography of Zhang Liang, the
founding hero of the Han Dynasty.
The second and third paragraphs of this
article read as follows
According to historical records, Zhang
Liang had a strange experience in his life.
He met an old man who gave him a book on
the art of war.
Because he had finished reading this book
on the art of war, he later became the founding hero of the Han Dynasty.
Many people say that this old man who
suddenly appeared is a supernatural being, but I think these people's ideas are
too absurd.
I think this old man should be a reclusive
wise man.
The old man used a special method to find
suitable people to learn the book on the art of war he wrote.
After the Qin Kingdom had eliminated the
Han Kingdom, it wiped out the other five kingdoms one by one.
After the Qin Kingdom unified all of China,
the king of the Qin Kingdom used various harsh punishments to deal with the
dissidents.
Even if you are a brave fighter, you cannot
stand against the entire state system.
At that time, there were still countless
innocent people. Although these people had no intention of rebelling against
the Qin Kingdom, they were also arrested and killed for no reason.
At that time, the Qin Kingdom used strict
laws and sharp knives to rule the people of all of China with great pressure.
Zhang Liang lived in that time, and he did
a very impulsive thing when he was young.
He couldn't control his anger towards the King
of Qin Kingdom, and he wanted to assassinate the King of Qin Kingdom with his
own power.
This time the attempt failed and he was
declared a wanted man. During this time he felt the constant threat of death.
This idiom means all kinds of harsh and
cruel punishments.
Dear friend, what kind of inspiration or
thought do you have after hearing this story?
Who is the most important person in your
life? When you were young, did you ever do things that brought you into crisis
because of your impulsiveness?
I hope this story can give you a new
harvest.
刀鋸鼎鑊(Various harsh and cruel punishments)
蘇軾是中國歷史上最著名的文學家之一。他同時也是一個著名的政治家。
他的詩與散文都寫得非常的好。他的書法與繪畫的程度也都非常的高。
他年輕時寫過一篇文章，這篇文章中，他寫下他讀完漢王朝的開國功臣張良的傳記後所感受到的啟發。
這篇文章的第二段與第三段如下。
根據歷史書的紀載，張良的人生中曾經有過一個奇特的經歷。
他遇見了一個老人，這個老人給了他一本兵法書。
因為他熟讀完了本兵法書，所以他之後才成為漢王朝的開國功臣。
很多人說這個突然出現的老人是，但我認為這些人的想法太過荒謬。
我認為這個老人應該是一個隱居的智者。
這個老人藉由一種特殊的方式尋找適合學習他所寫的這本兵法書的人。
秦王國消滅韓王國後又接連消滅了其他五個王國。
秦王國統一整個中國後，秦王國的國王用各種嚴酷的刑罰去對付那些異議份子。
就算你是一個很勇敢的戰士，你也無法對抗整個國家系統。
當時還有很多數也數不清的無辜的人，這些人雖然沒有反抗秦王國的想法，但這些人也平白無故地被抓與被殺。
在那個年代，秦王國用嚴格的法律與鋒利的刀，高壓統治管轄全中國的人民。
張良生活在那個時代，他年輕的時候做過一件非常衝動的事情。
他壓抑不住自已對秦王國的國王的憤怒情感，他想以他個人的力量暗殺秦王國的國王。
這一次的暗殺活動失敗，他被下令通緝，那段時間內他時刻感受到死亡的威脅。
這句成語的意思是指各種嚴酷且殘忍的刑罰。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
誰是影響你一生最重要的人嗎?你年輕時曾經因為衝動而做出那些令自已陷入危機的事嗎?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
