Who told the story that Zhang Liang helped Huang Shigong pick up his shoes three times?

The story of Sean helping to pick up shoes for three times comes from a classical Chinese article "Historical Records of Hou Family Biography" written by Sima Qian, a historian of the Western Han Dynasty. Details are as follows:

One evening, Sean walked across a bridge. A white-haired old gentleman came over and deliberately threw his shoes under the bridge. He said to Sean, "Young man, go down and help me get my shoes up!" "

Sean was very surprised, but seeing that the old man was so old, he picked up his shoes. The old man then asked Sean to put on his shoes. Now that Sean has picked it up for him, he respectfully put it on for him. After seeing the shoes put on, the old man smiled and left.

After walking nearly a mile, the old man came back and said to Sean, "You are a promising young man. You can pass on your skills. Meet me here at dawn in five days. " Sean was very surprised and bowed down and said, "OK."

Five days later, Sean arrived at the appointed place, and the old man had already arrived first. Seeing that Sean was late, the old man said angrily, "How can a young man be late for a date with an old man?" So he left again and said, "Come early in five days."

Five days later, when the rooster crowed, Sean hurried to the appointment, and the old man arrived first. He said angrily, "Why are you late again?" After that, the old man left again and said, "Come early in five days."

Five days later, Sean went at midnight. After a while, the old man came. The old man took out a book and said, "After reading this, you can be an imperial envoy. You will build a career in the next ten years, and you will see me in Jibei in thirteen years. Huangshi at the foot of the ancient city mountain is me. " With that, the old man left and never appeared again.

This old man is the legendary Gao Shi Huang Shigong, also known as the "old man". The next day, Sean read this book, which turned out to be The Art of War. Sean often read it repeatedly, and in the future, he really became a famous minister and superior ingenuity in the Han Dynasty. ?

The Significance of Sean Picking up Shoes for Huang Shigong Three Times;

1, laying the foundation for Sean's future wisdom life and strategy.

Sean got The Art of War. Since then, he has lived in seclusion and studied this "Taigong Art of War" carefully. Sean has his own political thoughts, which were developed after Korea. He recognized the reality, gave up the former and realized the latter perfectly.

He is a top politician and strategist. Following Liu Bang, what he did was great and brilliant. Liu Bang destroyed many heroes, but Sean, a thief who made great contributions, walked his life unscathed, made a name for himself, unscathed!

2. The story of Sean picking up shoes tells us: "Life is unbearable. Since you have endured it, you must endure it to the end. "

When Zhang put shoes on his knees, he said "endure till the end", because if you can't endure it, you won't be able to endure until the end, which makes people see that you are enduring and you are worthless.

The old man is inspecting Sean. If Sean leaves, is Sean's qualification still worth Huang Shigong's training? When he came back, he knew that Sean was still waiting for him, and Sean knew that the old man would come back.

From the beginning, these two men have been recruiting. After a contest, they found out each other's achievements. Lv Gong, a master of Chinese studies, said, "An equal footing between the two sides of the strait can form a story in history; If the level difference between the two sides is too much, as long as the old father doesn't come back or Sean isn't waiting for him, the story will become a joke. "

4. The process of Huang Shigong's inspection of Sean is actually an "enlightenment" process. "Acupoint" education method belongs to Taoist thought. In a few words, if you can understand it, you belong to a student with high understanding. But there are very few such students, so Taoist thought can only be passed on among elites. Sean belongs to the representative figure of the technique of Huang Lao, and his political experience of assisting Liu Bang in the future fully embodies this point.
