Were there any young people among the ministers of the ancient court? Isn t it all old people?

Gan Luo was brilliant since he was a child, and at the age of 12 he sent an envoy to Zhao State, instigating the battle of Zhao Yan, so that Qin State won 16 cities with one knife and one shot, and made contributions to Qin's unification of the Six Kingdoms, and was worshiped as Shangqing by the King of Qin.

Becoming a prime minister at the age of 12, isn't he young?

Lu Zhen (754-805) was a politician and writer of the Tang Dynasty. Suzhou Jiaxing people, the word respect. In the eighth year of the Great Calendar (773), he was a scholar, a scholar and a scholar.

Dezong ascended the throne and summoned him as a scholar of Hanlin. In the eighth year of Zhenyuan (792), he became the prime minister, but two years later, because of a conflict with Pei Yanling, he was demoted to Zhongzhou and died.

He is the youngest Jinshi in the Tang Dynasty, and he was appointed as the prime minister at the age of 38, so he is not old, right?

These two people can become prime ministers because of their own abilities.

Yes, not to mention anything else, Huo Qing and Wei Qu are young enough.

In fact, the clay pot tomb was an extremely cruel burial method in ancient times, and the approximate steps were: dig a grave pit similar to the shape of a clay pot in the ground, build a blue stone brick around the tomb, and seal it with stone bricks on the top, leaving a small opening that can be entered and exited, in order to facilitate the delivery of food. Such graves are prepared for the elderly people in the family who are over 60 years old, and when the old people in the family are 60 years old, they will send the old people to live in the "clay pot grave".

Every day, the son of the family will go to deliver the meal, and he will also add a brick to the entrance until the delivery is completed for a year, and the entrance is sealed. In this way, the old man in this can not come out, so it can be regarded as a complete funeral.

Keeping old people in graves has been done since ancient times. This is not unfilial piety, from the perspective of death, it is to prepare yourself enough for death. If modern society still does this, of course, it will be criticized and despised, and a bowl of rice when you are alive is better than crying bitterly after death.

No, respecting the old and loving the young is a traditional virtue in our country. The old man of ancient times must be respected.

The ancients attached great importance to filial piety and basically did not dare to do so, which is only something that is only available in modern times.

A "hermit" is a recluse. First of all, there are "scholars", that is, intellectuals, otherwise there is no such thing as seclusion. No, not in the official career, all his life in the countryside for farmers, or in the rivers and lakes to do business, or live in caves to chop wood. There have been countless reclusive people throughout the ages, none of whom can be called hermits.

The hermit was first and foremost an intellectual, one of the members of the "scholar" class. Not all people who live in the countryside and mountains can be called hermits, those who aspire to enter the government but have no opportunity or ability to enter the government are not hermits, and those farmers who have no culture are not hermits.

Only those who can maintain an independent personality, pursue freedom of thought, do not compromise, do not attach themselves to power, have extraordinary talents and knowledge, and are truly unwilling to enter the profession from the heart, can be called hermits.

The ancient hermits all had outstanding features and extraordinary mentality, which ordinary people could not do, and some Taoist classics and poems in China were left by these hermits. For example, Guiguzi, Chen Chuan Ancestor. It can be seen that the land of ancient China is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and ancient Chinese China is still very mysterious.

Although there is no so-called supernatural power, there are still many hermits, and anyway, it feels like the more ancient it is, the more mysterious it becomes.

There is a part of the hermit who really wants to live an uninhibited life. But most hermits take the shortcut to the south (this is because in ancient times, celebrities were honored with honors, and if you were a hermit, you would have a high evaluation, and the lord would ask you personally. The typical character is Xie An, an idol worshiped by later generations, he is the hermit of the court).

During the Wei and Jin dynasties, he was in charge of ceremonies and compiling various affairs. After the Tang Dynasty, he referred to the Hanlin Bachelor, who became the emperor's secretary and adviser, and participated in confidential information, so he was called the "internal minister". In the Ming and Qing dynasties, although they were also Hanlin scholars, they were different from those of the Tang and Song dynasties.

For example, the "(Guidebook) Afterword" "Bachelor's Walk with the Senior Administration", which is an official position granted by Wen Tianxiang after resigning from the prime minister; "Tan Sitong" "Jun Yi Bachelor Xu Gong Zhijing Recommendation", Xu Zhijing was a bachelor at the Hanlin Academy at that time, which was an official position dedicated to lecturing to the emperor. Bai Juyi, Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi, Sima Guang, Shen Kuo, Song Lian, etc. were all scholars of Hanlin.

Shangqing] The official system of the Zhou Dynasty, the Son of Heaven and the princes all have a secretary, divided into upper, middle and lower three classes, and the most honorable person is called "Shangqing". For example, "Lian Po Lin Xiangru Biography": "Lian Po is ...... Zhao general."Worship for the Lord. ”

Great General) was the highest title of general in the pre-Qin and Western Han dynasties. For example, Han Gaozu took Han Xin as the general, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took Wei Qing as the general. After the Wei and Jin dynasties, it gradually became a fictitious title and had no real position.

The Ming and Qing dynasties only established the rank of general officer during the war, and it was abolished after the war. "The Biography of Zhang Heng" "The Great General Deng Qiu Qiqicai", Deng Qiu was the general of the Han and Emperor at that time.

This problem is too big, the official system and functions of the ancient dynasties are not the same, by the military republican system, there is a feudal system, there is a centralized system, there is a hereditary system, there is a imperial examination system. Under various systems, the setting of departments, the appointment and dismissal of the first and the functions of the department are developing and changing.

The queen mother in the palace, as well as his elders, the emperor has to give them three points of courtesy, respect the queen, respect the queen mother, and respect the older ** in the court.

Ugly Girl: Because ugly women are so weird.

Widow Because there are many right and wrong in front of the widow's door.

Beauty Because beautiful women are deceiving.

The first is: the woman, because there was a saying at that time: The woman is from the man, the father at home, the husband in marriage, and the son in death. The second is: fourteenth-class wives, after all, their status is different; The third is the queen, as the saying goes, the queen is the same body king.

The emperor's nurse, the queen mother, the empress.

Mandarin, which is not in the current sense, is basically based on the dialect where the capital is located.

It is necessary to distinguish the ancient time: I believe that since Qin Shi Huang unified weights and measures and unified writing (since the unified script will unify the pronunciation), the official language equivalent to the current Mandarin (which may not have been called Mandarin before) was used in public, and there were strict rules on the text and size of the edict. In fact, there used to be a unified pronunciation, such as the Kangxi dictionary that can still be seen now.

As for official dialogues in different scripts and language systems, as with other ethnic groups such as the Mongols, translation may be required. Can you understand the conversation between Cantonese and Northwest people mentioned by the landlord? My opinion on this question is that because of the geographical differences, it is difficult to understand their conversations, but if they are familiar with each other and have more conversations together, they will naturally be able to understand them.

Just like the current dialogue in Mandarin, Cantonese people want to talk to people in the northwest, and it is difficult to understand it for the first time, but they can do it after getting along for a long time, and the reason is the same. Before Qin Shi Huang unified the Six Kingdoms, I am afraid that there was no unified official language, because China at that time was divided into dozens of small countries, and the regions of each country were small, and it was possible to use dialects.
