Therefore, he has made great achievements in history.

"Every time I study history, I seek more truth. Master Hengming has no sudden words." Zuo said in his letter to his son: "Reading can make people feel relaxed, smart and strong, and it can also make people feel happy." If you suddenly read casually, there is nothing in your heart, just like a monk chanting, you are not only uninterested, but also hurt your blood by sitting for a long time, which is harmful to your health. Suddenly, I want to understand fashion and emphasize not to seek knowledge for the sake of reason ... "He warned his son to" seek reason "when reading, and he also stressed:" Reading should be gradual, careful and thoughtful. The urgent task is to swim to enrich his interest in righteousness and reason, not just to do sloppy work, so the heart-raiser is here ... I don't want you to become a secular name.
