Chapter 23 Section 2 Li Si's painful experience

Time passed quietly day by day, and the panic in Li Si's heart became more and more serious day by day.He is not a patient man.His patience was exhausted as early as when he was studying under Xun Qing's school.The leisurely and ordinary life made him feel suffocated and betrayed himself.Qu Yuan once said with emotion: Lao Ran Ran is about to come, and he is afraid that he will not establish his name.Li Si's fear was even more urgent. He worried that he would die tomorrow, or that the earth would be destroyed tomorrow, but he was still far away from his dream. Perhaps, only in dreams can he find some comfort.He often dreams of his beautiful wife, who is like a mother and a daughter, with her unique lingering and gentleness, making him grateful that he is not alone.She nestles in his arms, no matter he is in the world or the end of the world, success or failure, she will follow him, believe in him, rely on him, and worship him.A woman who is willing to wait for her all her life is a beautiful and intoxicating symbol in a man's heart.Whenever Li Si is tired, bored, and ready to surrender to life, he can see his wife's bright and trusting eyes.He can't give up.He has to work hard.She is worthy of all the best things in the world, and as her husband, he must fight for her, even if he dies.

The boys should grow taller again.Is that old yellow dog still alive?When I'm not around, will these two bad boys sneak behind their mother's back and chase the hare outside the east gate? Lu Buwei once invited Li Si to participate in the compilation of "Lushi Chunqiu", but Li Si flatly refused.Li Si's reason is: Articles are small skills, and Taoism is not respected.Having said that, however, Li Si didn't want to write a book to say something deep in his heart.But he couldn't do it.He knew that his best friend Han Fei was writing a book, and he believed that it must be an immortal book.Even if he wrote a book, he was destined not to surpass Han Fei.Just like Li Bai's sigh: "There is no way to see the scenery in front of you, and Cui Hao wrote poems on it." Therefore, Li Si didn't want to do useless work, and he didn't want to waste energy in a field that didn't belong to him.

Li Si refused to write "Lu Shi Chun Qiu", which made Lu Buwei very unhappy.Since then, whenever Li Si asked him to be appointed as a minister, he would deal with it in a hypocritical manner.Oh, Li Si, you are so talented that you can never be wronged.And wait a few more days.The truth is that if you don't give Jun an appointment, it's enough. Once appointed, it must be a high-ranking official, and Bao Jun is satisfied. A politician's promise is like a woman's oath, and you'd be a fool if you believed it.When you regret later because you took these words seriously, you can only blame yourself, because you voluntarily gave up the right to not believe.

Mr. Su Dongpo in the Northern Song Dynasty was ranked second in high school at the age of 21. He was in the limelight for a while, and his official career was unlimited.However, his character is too romantic, too naive, and too sentimental.A person who can write "the sentence of life and death in ten years" is definitely not a person suitable for being an official.In Su Dongpo's life, he heard the promises made to him by many politicians, but none of them came true.For example: After Song Renzong got Su Dongpo and his younger brother Su Zhe, he said with joy: "I have two prime ministers for my descendants." After reading Su Dongpo's article, Ouyang Xiu exclaimed: "The old man should avoid the road and let him go. "The results of it?Brother Dongpo's official career was bumpy all his life, and he was depressed and unable to succeed.Brother Dongpo looked back on his life in his later years and sighed: I have three inferiors in my life: I am inferior in playing chess, inferior in drinking, and inferior in being an official.This last one is inferior to others, he values ​​it the most, and also makes him feel unwilling.

Li Si was different from brother Dongpo, he was born to be an official.Naturally, he will not wait helplessly, he is actively exploring opportunities all the time.Li Si knows very well: In the business world, there is no kindness or malice, only business.In officialdom, there are no comparatives, no superlatives, only superiors and subordinates. The officialdom throughout the ages can be compared to a bamboo pole divided into several sections.A man's great enterprise is to climb to a class higher than his own, and the class above will use all its power to prevent him from climbing.Li Si was right, Lu Buwei always had a hand in him.Regardless of Lu Buwei's high-sounding words, he had already planned in his heart that he would never use Li Si.
