Talk about Li Si’s sigh

The Biography of Li Si is a classic work, and the classic lies in several stories in it.

Story 1: The Rat in the Toilet and the Rat in the Hamster.

When Li Si was a young official, he discovered the difference between the rat in the toilet and the rat in the hamster, which triggered a sigh in his life. The rat in the toilet is poorly fed and will immediately run away in fear when seeing someone. But the rat in the hamster has no worries about livelihood, eats and drinks well every day, and is very indifferent to people. Li Si lamented: The relationship between people and the environment is like a rat in a toilet and a rat in a hamster. The environment is so important and can change people.

Story 2: The Great Prohibition of Martial Arts

Qin Shihuang unified China, and Li Si was the prime minister. He made great contributions and reached the pinnacle of his life. The eldest son is the governor of Sanchuan. The sons marry princesses, and the daughters marry princes and grandsons. One time, when hundreds of officials were paying their respects to him on his birthday, he saw countless cars in front of the door. Li Si sighed again: My teacher Xunzi once said that "the prohibition of things is flourishing." I, Li Si, have grown from a commoner to today. Extremes lead to decline. How can I avoid decline?

Story 3: Deposing the Shihuang Emperor

Qin Shihuang passed away while traveling to the sand dunes. At the critical moment, Li Si was in love with glory and wealth and did not fight against Zhao Gao. He allowed Zhao Gao to say evil things and established the Second Emperor. Born Hu Hai. At that time, Li Si was conflicted in his heart. He looked up to the sky and sighed, saying: In these troubled times, it is important to keep yourself alive.

Story 4: Father and Son Beheaded

After Hu Hai ascended the throne, he believed Zhao Gao and had Li Si imprisoned and beheaded. When he was dying, Li Si hugged his son and cried, and finally sighed: There will no longer be the beauty of father and son leading dogs and hunting together, and they will never go back.

Thinking carefully about the biography of Li Si, the thoughts of the rat in the toilet and the rat in the hamster run through the whole article. Li Si believes that the environment is important. People are like rats, they can only adapt to the environment but cannot change it.

When Qin Shihuang unified China, Li Si followed the trend of the times and made great contributions. But at the critical moment, in the matter of Li Fusu and Hu Hai, he was greedy for wealth and lived in an ignoble way, and failed to play a role. Compared with Chen Ping and Zhou Bo in historical records, both of them are listed as aristocratic families simply because they played a key role at critical moments. And what about Li Si? Just for the sake of biography, this is praise and criticism.

Later, when Li Sigui became prime minister, he could not persuade Hu Hai, but A was willing to tolerate others and was greedy for honors and salary, so he could not play his role. In the end, Li Si was framed by Zhao Gao and cut off the Xianyang market in half, which was not appropriate!

It's a shame.
