Wu Sanqing's knowledge is quite profound, including astronomy and geography, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, and he can talk about it at random. Chatting with him, you never have to worry about being left in the dark. He can find relevant people and things in any sentence or word, especially about historical insights. Liu Wei An had always thought that history was just for memorizing and just memorizing it, but after this meal, his understanding of history completely changed.
Take Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty as an example. The most popular saying is that he is cruel, immoral, dissolute, and excessive. But what is the real situation? The facts have been lost in history, but through some clues, we can still roughly judge Yang Guang's character. First of all, he did not have many children. The total number of sons and daughters was less than ten. This is compared to a man who was in charge of the Sui Dynasty. It is unimaginable for an emperor who has been an emperor for nearly twenty years. Compared with those emperors who have dozens or even hundreds of children, Yang Guang can be considered dedicated.
At least throughout his life, his feelings for Empress Xiao never changed.
The second is the construction of the Grand Canal, which was attributed to Sheji. Even China thousands of years later cannot help but be grateful for his great achievements, which promoted exchanges between the north and the south. His contribution to the economy, politics, culture and military cannot be described in words.
Also, in the Sui Dynasty, except for the internal and external troubles in the years after the great cause, before that, they were always on the offensive, harassing the nomads who looted the Central Plains, and were beaten to the point of losing their temper. With millions of armors, it can be said that the territory created No less than the Tang Dynasty known to the world.
The main reason why Li Shimin founded the Tang Dynasty and was able to enter its prosperous age in such a short period of time was the huge supplies left by the Sui Dynasty. The supplies in several large warehouses left by the Sui Dynasty were not used up until the Tang Dynasty entered its prosperous age. However, It is conceivable that these supplies are so rich and huge. If Yang Guang was really a dissolute and unscrupulous king, when the dynasty declined, the warehouse would probably have been gone.
"History is written by the successful. If you want to know the truth, you must see it with your own eyes." This was Wu Sanqing's final end.
Regardless of whether Wu Sanqing's judgment is close to the historical truth, at least Liu Wei'an is convinced by these words.
After finishing the meal, he looked at the time and saw that it was already past seven o'clock. Liu Wei'an realized that this meal had been eaten for almost two hours, and he couldn't help but smacked his lips. He felt that it had only been a while.
"Goodbye, Uncle Wu." Liu Wei'an waved and went out. Wu Lili wanted to give it away, but he wouldn't let her. It was troublesome to give it out and send it back again. Moreover, he was a man and couldn't throw it away.
When he reached the turning point, he looked back and saw Wu Lili leaning against the door and looking at her with lingering eyes. She looked at him with a smile on her face.
Liu Wei'an rejected Wu Lili's invitation to go out at night. It was not that he disliked Wu Lili. On the contrary, after more than a day of getting along with her, he had developed a crush on Wu Lili. However, he hurried home because he was anxious to find a tutor.
"Hello, Teacher Yang?" Liu Wei'an couldn't wait to make a call on the way. In the Internet age, all work has become more efficient. It is not difficult to find tutors. If you search on the Internet, you will find them all. They are professors from famous schools. There were college students working part-time jobs, and Liu Wei'an didn't have time to sort through the good ones, so he directly chose the most famous one, who was currently the number one tutor in Xinfeng City, Teacher Yang.
"This is the registration office for Teacher Yang's cram school. Is there something wrong?"
A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone. Liu Wei'an was stunned and suddenly realized that someone must be managing such a large cram school, and Teacher Yang must only be responsible for teaching.
"That's right, I think-"
"Needless to say, the registration fee is 6,000 copper coins per month. If you want individual training, an additional 200 copper coins per hour will be added. The review materials will be charged separately. Is there anything you don't understand?" the other end of the phone said directly.
"I would like to ask, do you want to register in the evening?" Liu Wei'an was stunned for a moment, and his enthusiasm on the phone was reduced a lot. In his view, the school is a sacred place, with students studying tirelessly and teachers It was his duty to educate the world, but in this voice, all he could hear was a strong smell of copper. Also, the cost of this tutoring also surprised him. At 6,000 coppers, ordinary families really couldn't afford it.
In fact, the main reason is that Liu Wei'an has never been exposed to these things. Real one-on-one tutoring can cost several thousand yuan a week.
"The registration time ends at 8:30 in the evening. If you want to come, hurry up, otherwise you will come tomorrow morning."
"Okay, I'll be right over." Liu Wei'an hung up the phone and opened the navigation to check. The registration location is very close to here. It's only ten minutes' walk, so there's still time.
It took me a few seconds to write down the route. Just as I put my phone in my pocket, I saw a white-haired old man staggering over, leaning on a cane. He seemed to be in a hurry because the red light was about to come. He was too big and could fall at any time. Liu Wei'an almost subconsciously reached out to help him. When his hand was still five centimeters away from the old man, the old man fell down with a thud.
"Ouch, I bumped into someone. It hurts me to death. I bumped into someone."
Liu Wei'an watched helplessly as the old man threw his crutches aside, hugged his calf with his hands, and kept shouting. This time happened to be the time for a walk after dinner. When he heard the movement, he suddenly gathered in a circle. People were pointing and talking.
It’s a hit!
This was Liu Wei'an's first feeling. He had never encountered such a thing before, but it did not hinder his judgment. He was 100% sure that he had not encountered the old man.
"Uncle, I have good intentions and want to help you."
"Oops, I hit someone, it hurts me to death, my leg is broken, it hurts me to death, everyone, come and catch him, don't let him escape." The uncle is not young, at least seventy years old. But the voice is loud and full of energy.
This is the junction of the zebra crossing and the sidewalk. The six-lane road does not hinder the driving of the cars behind it, but some cars still stopped to watch the excitement. A few young people with a strong sense of justice rushed to arrest people, but soon, I found that Liu Wei'an didn't look like running away at all.
Although Liu Wei'an was tall, he looked less than 18 years old. He was no match for a vicious fugitive, and many sensible people were thoughtful.
Two big men rushed out of the crowd, one on the left and one on the right, blocking Liu Wei'an's path. The big man with a short head on the left said righteously: "Boy, if you hit someone, it's wrong to run away."
"Young man, you are so old, you will be in trouble if you bump into him." The big man on the right is missing a finger on his right hand and his breath is fierce.
"You haven't seen what happened clearly at all. It's best not to talk nonsense and lead other people's opinions." Another person squeezed out of the crowd, a woman, a very beautiful woman.
She is in her twenties, tall, and wears ordinary clothes, but there is a saying that she looks good in anything she wears. This sentence is simply written for her. She has an oval face, skin like snow, and a voluptuous figure under her towering breasts. The most touching thing about her slender waist is her eyes, which are clear and bright, with some hidden charm.
The woman scolded the two big men, and her eyes fell on the old man with a warning: "Uncle, respecting the old and caring for the young is the traditional virtue of our nation, but if someone uses this virtue to seek benefits, I have seen it. You can’t ignore it, you know what’s going on, there are so many people here, so many people saw it.”
"What's wrong with you little kid? I was hit and you didn't help me but still doubted me. What's your intention? Are you in the same group?" A trace of uneasiness flashed in the old man's eyes.
"I'm just a passerby. I don't know anyone here, and you don't need to divert your attention." The woman was very calm. "It's inevitable that the sidewalks are crowded and bumpy, but you said you broke your leg. Do you think this young man is... A car?”
"Girl, what you said is wrong. What is an accident? Accidents mean that anything can happen. Not to mention breaking a leg, it is not impossible to fall and die." said the tall man with a short hair.
"It's unfounded, and I know you won't believe it." The woman sneered and took out her phone, "Unfortunately, I happened to film the scene just now. The young man fell down before he could even touch him. I’m going down. Now I’ll give you a chance to leave immediately, otherwise I will call the police. These traditional virtues in society have been distorted and corrupted by you.”
As soon as he said this, the old man lying on the ground was immediately dumbfounded, his face turning red and white. When he wanted to get up, he was in full public view because he couldn't afford to lose that person. If he couldn't get up, he was worried that the woman would call the police.
"Stinky girl, mind your own business."
The two big men shouted angrily, with fierce glares in their eyes, and were about to take action when the spectators around them refused. Not to mention women being reasonable, even if they were targeting beautiful women, they couldn't let two people act recklessly.
"careful--"
With an exclamation, the woman suddenly looked up and saw that the old man who was lying on the ground had stood up at some point, waving his crutch and hitting her head with a strong wind, and the force was definitely not small. If she was hit, even if she was hit, Even if he wasn't seriously injured, his head would be badly bruised. It was too late for the woman to dodge, and she was so frightened that her face turned pale.
Just as he was about to get rich, the woman felt a tightness around her waist, and she was already held by a strong arm. Liu Wei'an hugged the woman and spun around. The cane fell, grazing the woman's raised hair, and hit her behind. On the head of a big man with a short hair.
tie!
The big man with a short head screamed and squatted down holding his head. Others were shocked when they saw this scene.
"Uncle, didn't you break your leg? Why do you still have the strength to hit someone?" Liu Wei'an said coldly.
The old man's face flushed red, and he wanted to say a few harsh words, but when he faced the mocking and contemptuous eyes around him, he found that he could not say anything. He hurriedly got into the crowd and left, running very fast with his legs and feet, and in the blink of an eye he was gone. When he disappeared, the big man with a short head stopped screaming and ran away with the other person. At this time, even a dull person can understand that the three of them are in love, and at the same time cast admiring glances at the woman.
This society lacks this kind of righteous force that dares to fight against evil forces.
