After carefully reading a famous book, I believe everyone has gained a lot of knowledge. At this time, you need to seriously think about how to write your feelings after reading it. So do you really know how to write a review? The following is my review of Zeng Guofan (10 general articles). It is for reference only. I hope it can help everyone. After reading Zeng Guofan 1
After reading "Zeng Guofan", I have actually found the answer. Zeng Guofan is a typical figure who integrates Chinese traditional culture. He is loaded with nationality and culture, and his Experience has also given us this revelation: Modern people who are restless in a period of change still long for nourishment from their own culture, and especially hope to gain some enlightenment from successful people cultivated by this culture. Because of the same origin, same kind, and same bloodline, it is more cordial, practical, and more effective.
In the era of modern information explosion and fierce competition, there are many opportunities and a lot of money. People no longer have the pastoral tranquility of the past and the leisure of studying behind closed doors for many years without leaving home. They lack the kind of enthusiasm of the ancients. The elegance and connotation of chess, calligraphy and painting are more of a kind of impetuosity and emptiness. How can people who are busy with work grasp the course of life in the ups and downs of business? How to maintain a pure heart in the noisy city?
I closed the book and thought over and over again: As an individual, how could Zeng Guofan have done so many meaningful things in just sixty years with his weak body? Where does his extraordinary energy and wise mind come from? As a leader, he created a team outside the system from scratch, and brought this army to the other side of success amidst all difficulties and dangers. What is his ability? ? As a father and brother, he wrote thousands of letters to his children throughout his life, and even when the military situation was dangerous, he still taught his children sincerely and sincerely. Where did his extraordinary and uninterested love come from? As a senior official of the country, when the whole world was in a state of confusion, he was able to put forward the idea of ??learning from the West and implement it within the scope of his power. Where did his insight come from? Even though 100 years have passed, his brilliant achievements are still endlessly memorable and have become a subject of research?
Zeng Guofan once said: "When it comes to big things, it all depends on Ming Qiang." How to understand strength, he believes: First, he who can conquer himself is strong. The second is to seek strength through self-study. That is to say, a person should pay attention to his inner cultivation, strive to improve his own quality, and gradually form the moral character of a sage through accumulation over time. In this way, true enlightenment can be achieved. This is what he said and he did.
Perhaps after reading this book, you will have a spiritual conversation with a big man who has thousands of gaps in his mind. After one call, I understood a lot of things. It felt like the confusing things squeezing in my heart were gently resolved.
Maybe I read it a bit voraciously and haven’t fully read it yet. It’s hard to get tired of reading a good book, so let’s savor it again when you have time. Comments after reading 2 by Zeng Guofan
After reading "Black Rain" by Zeng Guofan, the black rain was pouring when Zeng Guofan died, and it started to rain outside the window.
It’s time to write a book review.
In fact, before reading Zeng Shu, all I knew about this historical task was "leading the Hunan Army to defeat the Taiping Army" and founding the "Anqing Ordnance Institute" in the history books. The most famous one is "Letters from the Family of Zeng Guofan". I still remember that the female history teacher in junior high school often took a copy of "Blood Sacrifice" and put it on my desk in the first row. As a child, I always worshiped power, so "Blood Sacrifice" really made me yearn for it. But eight years later, when I read these three books in a row, I realized that Zeng Guofan written by Tang Haoming is really a historical event novel with almost no personal relationships between children. This is very different from Er Yuehe.
Er Yuehe's books seem to be more interesting and interesting, and the relationship between king and minister is admirable. There are more successes than failures, which often makes people amazed.
But Tang Haoming’s Zeng Guofan had more failures than successes, and his life was extremely bumpy. I feel that Zeng is a bit like Yongzheng in Yuehehe's works. The characters are more orthodox and rigid, and the feudal family is patriarchal. But there were many talented people around Yongzheng, who were able to meet people's aspirations. Although there were many talented people around Zeng Guofan, they all had their own plans. Although there were a very few who shared Zeng's hearts and admired him as a person, such as Peng Yulin. After all, this is the difference between a minister and a king.
I feel that "black" is particularly suitable for Zeng Guofan. The cover of this book is black. He first admired Cheng and Zhu's learning, and then was awakened by Chen Guangfu and taught him the Tao Te Ching and the Nan Hua Jing. .
Since ancient times, ministers who hold heavy troops have been jealous of the monarch, regardless of whether they are loyal or traitorous. "Holding heavy troops" itself is a taboo in the Jun family, let alone the Han officials in the Manchu dynasty. Therefore, after "cutting off the long hair", he took the initiative to "cut off the wings" and abolished the Hunan Army. Handling the Tianjin case made him infamous; suppressing the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom made historians argue his pros and cons from various angles. There are good names and bad reputations. As a result, the important figures in the historical background of the decline of feudal society have become obscure and unclear, making it impossible to judge.
But he is a high official who is loyal to the Lord, which is the most appropriate title. In addition, his family letters and calligraphy have also been handed down, and his reputation as a bachelor of Hanlinyuan is still valid.
The misunderstanding between them has remained unresolved till death, and I am very sorry for it.
Zeng Guofan's younger brothers and younger brothers are all too poor in talent, and there is no one who can succeed him or assist him. Xing Guoquan is a little stronger, but I don't like him.
I still like Peng Yulin here, he is a strange man. Zeng Guofan's thoughts after reading 3
"Bingjian" is a legendary book handed down by Zeng Guofan, which summarizes his experience in understanding people and using people's minds. The meaning of "Bingjian" is to use ice as a mirror to observe the fine hairs. It is Zeng Guofan's insight into the subtleties and the key to understanding people's hearts. Because of its strong practicality, enlightenment and reference, it is valued and loved by people from all walks of life. Regarding knowing people, Yu Dan expressed it through the words of the ancients in his The Analects of Confucius. The greatest wisdom lies in knowing people. Liu Shao, Cao Cao's counselor during the Three Kingdoms period, also said: "The most beautiful thing about sages is their intelligence. The best thing about intelligence is intelligence." There is nothing more valuable than knowing people." Cao Xueqin said in the fifth chapter of "Dream of Red Mansions": "Everything in the world can be understood through knowledge." All these show that knowing people is very important and rare for leaders and ordinary people. Zeng Guofan's "Bingjian" is a book that teaches people to know people.
"Bingjian" is small but thoughtful. After reading it, I feel that it is difficult to truly master these methods. When you hear this, you may think that this is just feudal physiognomy. Now, everything is possible. In this era, it is not worth trusting. There is no scientific theoretical basis. I think there is actually it. Many of the contents in the book can be verified in life. The reason why we can recognize a person from his physical characteristics is Originating from psychology and traditional Chinese medicine, a person's personality, experience, and knowledge can determine and change a person's temperament and demeanor. This is easy to understand. What is Chinese medicine about? For example, Chinese medicine believes that people with weak lung qi The character will be sad, and if adjusted properly, the character will gradually become cheerful. People with lung deficiency will have pale skin and poor energy. People with bad spleen will be timid, frightened all day long, thin, and have hard ears. Small people are born with insufficient kidney qi, and fat and thick ears are a sign of congenital kidney qi. Only with sufficient kidney qi can the spirit be strong, so the physical condition also has a great impact on a person's psychological state. For example, we want to help a person When a child with low self-esteem builds up his self-confidence, in addition to psychological counseling, you may also want to pay attention to his physical health. I believe it will get twice the result with half the effort. This is a reference book. We can say that "Bingjian" is superficially a treatise on identifying people, but in essence it is a guide to success and an inspirational book. His role can be summed up in two points: knowing people to use things, and knowing himself to cultivate himself. I recommend everyone to read this book. For leaders, learn more about the methods of recognizing and employing people; for individuals, when we reflect on our own appearance through the theory in Bingjian, we can find our own inner flaws and find the direction for improvement. , I think the most important thing when learning to recognize people is to recognize yourself. In fact, knowing yourself correctly is the most difficult and important thing. Bingjian can be used as a mirror to let you understand yourself better: for parents and teachers , through studying this book, you will have one more way to observe and understand children, so as to better help children grow up healthily. Comments after reading by Zeng Guofan 4
We live in an era of great material abundance. There is no shortage of food, technology, or God. Every Homo sapiens is his or her own “god of wisdom,” and the worship of gods has long been transformed into the worship of humans.
But I still feel that something is missing in our era.
After reading "Letters from the Family of Zeng Guofan", I found the answer: we have the courage to follow the trends of the times, but we lack the persistence to adhere to excellent cultural traditions.
Zeng Guofan’s letters to his parents and descendants all reveal his deep affection for the family. He upholds the legacy of his ancestors, his gentle and honest family style and practical and effective family mottos, allowing him to survive in the turbulent modern times. The society remains standing, and his persistence and responsibility for the family urges him to think about ways to make the family prosper and continue. In this way, he constantly examines himself, so that he not only retains the stubborn character of traditional Chinese literati, but also adapts well. Following the development trend of the times, he became the main leader of the Westernization movement.
Zeng Guofan taught his children and grandchildren that "when scholars study, they must first be ambitious, secondly knowledgeable, and thirdly perseverant." This was his response to the Confucian "cultivation of one's morality, orderly family, governance of the country, and peace of the world" at that time. A reinterpretation of the times we live in. He warned his children and grandchildren to be ambitious and have the ambition to serve the country; to be knowledgeable, to look at the world, and to learn widely; to be perseverant, not to be impetuous in life, and not to be eroded by Western ideas that advocate efficiency. This is not only Zeng Guofan's persistence in the traditional scholar spirit, but also the embodiment of the spirit of the times. It can be said that this is a kind of cultural confidence that conforms to the changes of the times, and it is also a kind of moderation and peace that neither belittles oneself nor is arrogant. wisdom.
Looking back at the era in which Zeng Guofan lived, it was an era in which pain like childbirth coexisted with hope; looking at our own era now, isn't it also an era in which transcendence and crisis coexist? How should we view history, and how should we not be trapped by the times and "transcend this era ourselves"? This is a question worth pondering for every contemporary person.
I think that is to stick to the excellent cultural traditions, to uphold and inherit them with an innovative and non-pedantic attitude, not to forget the past, and to keep pace with the times.
Yuval Harari said in "A Brief History of the Future": "The best reason to study history: not to predict the future, but to get rid of the past and imagine another destiny." This statement It shows the attitude of human beings eager to transcend the past, but perhaps when we look back at history, we also need to precipitate something as precious as gold in it, and live with a grand view of history, so that talents will not be drowned in the torrent of the new era. Or buried.
Reading "Zeng Guofan's Family Letter", looking back at history, basing ourselves on ourselves, and adhering to excellent cultural traditions, we can better find our own value and positioning in the infinitely extending era, so that we can live up to the times and the country. . Thoughts after reading 5 by Zeng Guofan
When I was a child, I briefly flipped through a few pages of Zeng Guofan's family letters, but threw them back on the bookcase because I didn't understand the meaning. The reason why I read it again was by chance. I went to the former residence of Zeng Guofan and listened to the tour guide explaining the life of Zeng Gong. I felt curious and longing: Zeng Gong was born in an ordinary farming and studying family. In just ten years, he rose to the rank of bachelor of the cabinet and minister of the Ministry of Rites. As a second-rank official, there must be something extraordinary about it, so I picked it up and read it carefully.
"Zeng Guofan's Family Letters" records Zeng Guofan's 30-year military career from the 30th year of Daoguang to the 10th year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty. It covers a wide range of contents, including self-cultivation, conduct, and making friends. ﹑Manage the family, educate the children, run the army and participate in politics, etc., from the grandparents to the father's generation, to the younger brothers in the middle, and to the children's generation below. In his dealings with the world, Zeng Guofan acted with "sincerity" and "perseverance" throughout his life. He advocated perseverance and hard work. He not only worked hard when he was successful, but especially never lost heart when he was frustrated. In terms of managing his family and educating his children, he advocated diligence and thrift in running the family. Study hard, be friendly to neighbors, and study wisely. He often told his children that as long as they were educated, they would not be afraid of not having enough to eat. He also said that if a family is too prosperous, trouble will occur, and he advocates not leaving property to children and grandchildren. If the children and grandchildren are unworthy, it will be useless. If the children and grandchildren want to be strong, they will not worry about having nothing to eat. This is what he calls the principle of waxing and waning; In terms of running the army and employing personnel, he advocated running the army with etiquette. In order to make the officers and soldiers strictly observe discipline and love the people, he even personally composed "Love Folk Song" to persuade the officers and soldiers; in terms of strategy and tactics, he believed that war is a matter of life and death, and one should "seek stability first" , Seeking changes." In terms of employment, the principles of "benevolence, filial piety, and sincerity" are emphasized, and talents who are practical and practical are selected. The selection criteria are "the style of advocating truth and overthrowing superficiality, and striving for craftsmanship." Zeng Guofan's shogunate was a talent training base. Li Hongzhang, Zuo Zongtang and others were all around him.
If you read "Zeng Guofan's Letters from Home" deeply, you will definitely be infected by the strong family affection in the book. Zeng Guofan lives up to his reputation as "the best moral article of his generation". Each letter from home may be long or short, and the meaning contained in the lines is It is a deep feeling of care, respect, care and concern for grandparents, parents, brothers, wives, children, relatives and friends. In the modern society that pursues fame and wealth, such a strong family affection is particularly valuable.
How long has it been since you sat down and wrote a letter? How long has it been since you last had a good talk with your parents? How long has it been since you got together with your brothers and sisters? In this prosperous world, the hustle and bustle is all for profit. But by reading "Books from the Family of Zeng Guofan", I learned many valuable qualities from Zeng Gong, the most valuable of which is filial piety. Make a phone call to your parents, buy some clothes for your parents, go on a trip with your parents... Satisfy your parents as much as possible in terms of material and emotional aspects. There is no small thing for your parents. In fact, it doesn’t need to be too much. If you can love them as much as they love us. , is enough. Comments after reading 6 by Zeng Guofan
"Letters from Zeng Guofan" collects and organizes the essence of the letters exchanged between Zeng Guofan and his grandparents, parents, and brothers. The book teaches reading, studying knowledge, self-cultivation, determination, persistence, etc. On the other hand, we can see the "truth" of Zeng Guofan in his ordinary family affairs, and thus have a deeper understanding of Zeng Guofan.
Reading his family letters, I was deeply educated.
Since ancient times, China has said the "three immortals" of meritorious service, virtue and speech, but it is not easy to truly achieve these "three immortals", and Zeng Guofan used his practical actions to imitate us. Narrated. However, how much determination and perseverance it takes to achieve this! In my opinion, Zeng Guofan is a good brother and a filial son. He always told his younger brothers to study hard and study knowledge seriously. He believed that it was a filial duty for him to help his parents educate his younger brothers, so he taught his younger brothers with all his heart. When he encounters a problem, he can always find fault within himself and reflect on his own shortcomings. When conflicts occur with his brothers, he feels sad, but he will not use his temper to pursue the other party's fault. Instead, he handles it calmly and carefully maintains the relationship between the brothers. "Brother and friend" is fully reflected in him. He once said to his younger brother, "Whenever a brother has a fault, he must make it clear and there must be no doubts. If I have a fault, I should criticize him tactfully. If I don't listen, I should write a letter and report it to the court." I think that is the case. It should be like this. If there are any problems between family members, they should open the sky and talk openly about everything. If you have a problem and don't say it, but just keep it in your heart, who will know about it? This will only make the conflicts between them more acute. Once the conflicts are triggered, it will only cause greater and deeper harm to each other.
In his family letters, we see Zeng Guofan's respect for his elders. Whenever there is anything, I will discuss or tell my elders first, instead of making my own decisions, ignoring other people's feelings, and just seeking my own comfort. When encountering problems, you should discuss them with each other, so that things can be resolved better. Zeng Guofan's father once said to his brother in a book, "When circumstances are difficult, time will pass." Yes, time will pass soon. A person's life is neither long nor short. It is extremely difficult to be a family. It is even more difficult to be a member of a harmonious family with someone who cares about and cares for. , Therefore, we should learn to cherish, know how to cherish, and don't wait until we lose it to find that what we have been pursuing has always been in front of us, but we have always taken it for granted and did not know how to cherish it. We will regret it when we lose it.
"Zeng Guofan's Family Letter" has given me far more than these revelations, and I still need to study hard. Comments after reading by Zeng Guofan 7
To learn to be willing to give up is to learn how to choose, to know how to give up, to know one's duty, and to know the true meaning of giving up is often a cautious person. Zeng Guofan always had "prudence and awe" in his work as an official.
"Guanzi" said: "If the cautiousness is small, the establishment will be small; if the caution is great, the establishment will be large." Zhu Xi, a great scholar, believes: "A truly great hero is a great hero. From being cautious and cautious, you can become a general. If you are strong-blooded, you will not be able to do it at all."
Zeng Guofan was cautious by nature and steered his life with the word "caution". He once made a couplet: "If you are cautious, you will never forget hell even when you are alive; if you are magnanimous, you will have peace of mind despite adversity." From this, we can see Zeng Guofan's philosophy of doing things.
Zeng Guofan's prudence is also reflected in various aspects, such as being cautious as an official, cautious in fighting, cautious in making friends, cautious in employing people, cautious in words and deeds, always reflecting on himself, trying to avoid all shortcomings, and never giving others leverage so that others have no time to criticize. In the turbulent late Qing Dynasty, a highly respected minister retreated to protect himself. He relied more heavily on Mu Zhang'a, Sushun, and Yi Xin. These ministers had irresponsible hatred for each other and did not end well in the end, but Zeng Guofan, who relied heavily on them, remained unmoved. It was Zeng Guofan who used the prudent strategy of "having a clear understanding and not showing any trace" to stay alone.
To be cautious means to be afraid. As long as you are afraid, you will do things seriously, be more prepared, and think carefully. "Awe" is a kind of respect and cherishment, a thorough understanding of life and double care of life; it is a true understanding of the objective world and the human nature.
Zeng Guofan once said that he had three fears: fear of destiny, fear of people's words, and fear of king and father. In his letters to his family, he often warned his family members to "always have a sense of awe. Don't bully others because you think your family members are officials; don't think that you are arrogant because you have some knowledge. To always have a sense of awe is the way to cherish blessings." Zeng Guofan's awe is impressive. He is clean and self-disciplined, has a clear mind, a humble attitude, a cautious style, and a strong sense of crisis. With such a sense of awe, a person can guard against arrogance and impetuosity, always put himself in the position of a learner, and always maintain the attitude of an intern, so that he can be scrupulous, abide by something, and achieve something. No.
Zeng Guofan was always "content" and "knowing his duty" in his dealings with others. He once said, "If you are content with the vastness of the world, but you are greedy for the narrowness of the universe, how can you not be extraordinary, and have too many desires to cause harm..." His status and achievements gave him the qualifications and strength to enjoy all the glory and wealth, but he chose to live in poverty all his life. , Diligent and thrifty.
Contentment always brings happiness. A person who is eager for fame and fortune will attach importance to common sense. If the desire is too great, the mind will be blinded, and the reality will no longer be objective and calm, so the gap will gradually widen, and resentment, injustice, and complaints will begin to fill the body and mind, and what you will get is a failed life. Zeng Guofan's thoughts after reading 8
I once read a story like this: One night, in the dead of night, everything was silent. The young Zeng Guofan was studying at home. He read an article aloud many times, but still couldn't memorize it. Unable to memorize it and unable to sleep, he had no choice but to recite it all the time. At this time, a thief came to the house, lurking under the eaves, hoping to get some benefits after the scholar went to bed. But after waiting and waiting, Zeng Guofan was not seen going to bed, but he was still reading the article over and over again. The thief was furious and couldn't bear it anymore. He jumped out and said loudly: "What kind of book can I read at this level?" What happened next made Zeng Guofan stunned: the thief recited the article fluently, and then said contemptuously He glanced at Zeng Guofan and walked away.
Mediocre qualifications, but able to achieve such high achievements in life. By reading "The Front and Side of Zeng Guofan", what I realized most is that the word "Heng" made him what he was. This book is different from ordinary biographies. The author starts from more details and trivial matters of the characters, and restores the characters' images for everyone more realistically. It is also mixed with many author's comments on the protagonists.
The reason why he was able to achieve such a high level of achievement in life is always inseparable from the word "persistence" throughout his life. Zeng Guofan's "constant" character in this book is undoubtedly the most impressive to me. Zeng Guofan had a "constancy" in reading. He advocated "reading without duplication" and would never read another book before finishing it. In addition to perseverance in studying, the same applies to fighting in the army. When doing other things, he still regards perseverance as the highest criterion.
He requires himself to stick to a fixed schedule every day. Such pursuit of perseverance is naturally extremely painful. Most ordinary people can't survive it. What should I do if I can’t stand it? You have to endure it even if you can't stand it, and use your strong strength to get through this level. This is easier said than done. Whenever he feels extremely tired, he will reflect on himself in his diary, hold himself to the standards of a saint, and have zero tolerance for slacking off.
The book says that no matter how talented everyone is, as long as they are willing to work hard, they can be the forger of their own life, wake up from the chaos, and find their own path in life. When Zeng Guofan summed up his life, he said: A person's life is like a process of fruit ripening. You cannot be anxious or slack off. Human efforts and God's cultivation will make a tree grow taller quietly and make people mature slowly.
Although the era of Zeng Guofan is far away from us, we cannot forget the spiritual wealth left to us by the ancients and must carry forward and inherit this excellent quality. On the long road of life, we must not forget our original aspirations, adhere to our ideals, and strive unremittingly! Thoughts after reading Zeng Guofan 9
Chatting with Zhang Xiaoyan, the girl said: "The Complete Biography of Zeng Guofan" is a book worth reading again and again. When she said this, I was only halfway through reading "Blood Sacrifice", halfway through "Wild Burning", and had not yet opened "Black Rain". I don’t know if Zhang Xiaoyan is talking about the book I read, "The Complete Biography of Zeng Guofan", because if you search for this title on Baidu, you will find that there are multiple versions.
The book I read is a long historical novel written by Tang Haoming. It was published by Inner Mongolia People's Publishing House in 2007. It is divided into three parts: Blood Sacrifice, Wild Burning and Black Rain; there is also a biography "The Complete Biography of Zeng Guofan" ", author Jiang Xingde, published by China Literature and History Publishing House in 2004, is an autobiography by Zeng's nephew; "The Complete Biography of Zeng Guofan" compiled by Yue Xin and Zhang Hong includes the true biography of Zeng Guofan, "The Romance of Zeng Guofan", "The Anecdotal History of Zeng Guofan" and "The Complete Biography of Zeng Guofan". "Zeng Guofan's Farewell Biography" is the largest of four volumes. It is published by Jinghua Publishing House and costs 870 yuan. Among them, the first two sets are widely circulated. After reading the set at hand, you can buy another set and read it.
Zeng Guofan has three outstanding points: self-discipline, knowing people, and controlling people.
Self-discipline means strict requirements on oneself. The main method adopted for this purpose is to keep a diary, analyze oneself, conduct learned self-criticism, and exercise self-discipline in every detail. "Civil officials do not love money, and military officials are not afraid of death, then the world will be in control." This is what Yue Fei said, and it is also Zeng's principle. As a civil and military commander, Zeng Guofan set an example by practicing "diligence" and "frugality", adhering to "prudence in independence", and strictly observing his own conduct. Only such a leader can lead a team with combat effectiveness and cohesion with his personal charm.
Knowing people means identifying talents. Zeng Guofan wrote the book "Bing Jian", which is now available for purchase. This book is said to be the master of understanding people by face. Although it is exaggerated, it is true that face comes from the heart, and the mutual transformation and influence of physiology and psychology makes sense. You can buy this book and read it.
Controlling people means making them work for me through rewards and punishments, education, communication, and doing things. This is a subtle knowledge that is worth learning throughout your life. I once said that the most beautiful scenery is in the human heart. You can learn from Carnegie's "Human Weakness".
Understanding people can only be meaningful if it is coordinated with controlling people. Understanding only one of them is not enough to achieve success. If I can recognize talents, but I can’t use them, what’s the point? Although some people have great talents, they cannot be used by me, such as Zuo Zongtang. I can only let it develop, take it naturally, and use it rationally. There is no need to spend more time on these people; those who have a mellow heart and possess the talent Talents with outstanding talents and surmountable shortcomings are valuable. After identifying talents, encourage them, cultivate them, extract their essence and remove their dross, only then can they last forever, such as Li Hongzhang.
In fact, self-discipline and knowing and controlling people are complementary to each other. Only by being strict with yourself can you have a clear ear and clear eyesight, recognize talents, gather talents under your own personality charm, and control them. They work for me. Thoughts after reading Zeng Guofan 10
On a certain day in November, I saw news online that Henan Literature and Art Publishing House had newly released the complete collection of "Zeng Guofan" by Tang Haoming. It was the only complete book that Mr. Tang wrote the preface and re-edited by himself. In addition, Hunan friends Mr. Tang was recently posted on WeChat, so he bought a set without hesitation. When this book was popular, I bought several copies (to read for myself and to give to friends) and read it twice. After receiving the book, I couldn't wait to read the first one. It was in order and in short order. The so-called complete book is no different from the past. People in Henan exaggerate. However, the quality and paper of the book are good, and it feels like reading in your hand. very good.
In recent years, I have been fortunate enough to join a high-end and upscale Hunan WeChat circle of friends. I have had close contact with several Hunanese people, and I also went deep into Hunan the year before last. Hunan people do have distinctive personalities and are rich in talents. They seem to have similarities with us Shaanxi people. The difference may be that one is more influenced by ancient customs and the other is more influenced by modern times. Due to my circle of friends, maybe there are some similarities, so wanting to take my family or a few friends to travel to Hunan has become a knot in my mind in the past two years.
Zeng Guofan, a social elite deeply baptized by traditional Chinese culture, would normally be their lifelong pursuit to travel to the imperial court and return home in fine clothes. But Zeng Guofan lived in a period of changing dynasties, and achieving a career was their inner cry. However, in troubled times, the world was declining, the society was backward, the court was in danger, unspoken rules prevailed, and they were helpless and depressed when they wanted to do things but had nothing to do. , the excitement, entanglement, and frustration in the process of achieving a career, the courage to do big things regardless of trivial matters and the means, the inner struggle to change dynasties, each of the characters with distinctive characteristics, Mr. Tang spent eight years writing this book. Rich, lively and engaging, a good-looking and atmospheric book that is rare in recent years has been released.
Reading "Blood Sacrifice" again, I was impressed by the following aspects. First, the portrayal of Zuo Zongtang, especially the few words in the section about helping Zhang Liangji guard the Hongmen Banquet in the Changsha Governor's Yamen. , made a living Zuo Zongtang appear on the page, making me feel that there were shadows of acquaintances around me; secondly, the first section of "How can outstanding people come from a world without difficulties" and the following two sections gave a thorough description of Zeng Guofan's tangled worries before leaving the mountain, and from now on If you are confused about something, you will gain a lot by reading these three sections; the third is the use of Tabuqi, Kangfu, and Peng Yulin, the treatment of Luo Zenan, Jin Songling, and Qinglin, and the relationship with Liu Rong. All are classics. In addition, there are a few sentences that impressed me deeply, such as: A civil servant does not love money, no matter how mediocre he is, he is a good official; a military officer is not afraid of death, no matter how rude he is, he is a good general; if a scholar attaches great importance to banditry, banditry may become a big deal. ——.
