Yue Fei said, "Is it time for the general to be happy?" Song Gaozong wanted to build a mansion and a family for him in order to praise his brilliant military exploits.

Wang Guowei's death
Wang Guowei's cultural life is the most profound one.
About his death, Zhao Wanli's Chronicle of Mr. Wang Jing 'an has the following record: "On the night of the second day of May, after reading the examination paper, I wrote a suicide note. It was a good night's sleep as usual. Rosty Yi (that is, June 2, 1927) washed his hands and ate, and went to the research institute to see things as usual. Suddenly, he left the school gate with five fake silver cakes from a friend and hired a car to the Summer Palace. Walking to the front of the Yun Xuan Xiyu Algae Garden, the stream was independent, and a cigarette was exhausted. The gardener once saw it, and suddenly heard the sound of falling into the water, fighting for help. It was less than two minutes before he died, and it was just right. "
Generally speaking, it can be inferred that Wang Guowei's death was not only an active choice, but also very calm, like going on a date with an old friend, without any passion. It is this calmness of death that marks a unique position for Wang Guowei in the coordinate system of cultural history. He didn't die of specific current events, but most likely he died of disappointment with the cultural spirit in which he lived, and despair of some irreparable defects in China culture. Judging from the great historical view, his death not only did not stick to some specific current affairs, but also transcended individual life; He separated himself from the degraded culture by death-he saw that if the body didn't die, the spirit would definitely die, so only the death of the body could be exchanged for the eternal life of the spirit. This is his great sobriety and wisdom. At that time, I'm afraid only a few people who felt the same way saw through this.
Analysis: The quiet and regretless choice seems to be pursuing something, perhaps it is a kind of serenity in the heart of China intellectuals!

No way out without retreat
When he was young, the famous ancient Greek orator Dai Mosini hid in a basement to practice his eloquence in order to improve his speaking ability. Because he can't stand loneliness, he wants to go out for a stroll from time to time, but his heart can't calm down, and the effect of practice is very poor. In desperation, he crossed his mind, waved scissors and shaved off half of his hair, becoming a strange "yin and yang head." In this way, because he was ashamed to meet people, he had to completely give up the idea of going out to play, practice eloquence wholeheartedly, and never leave the room for months, and his speech level advanced by leaps and bounds. After some tenacious efforts, Dai Mosini finally became a world-famous orator.
Similarly, in 183, the French writer Hugo signed a contract with a publisher to hand over a work within six months. In order to ensure that he could concentrate all his energy on writing, Hugo locked all his clothes except the sweater he was wearing in the cupboard and threw the key into the lake. In this way, because he couldn't get the clothes to wear when he went out, he completely broke the idea of going out to meet friends and play, plunged into writing, and never left his desk except for eating and sleeping. As a result, his work was released two weeks in advance. This work, which took only five months to complete, is the famous literary masterpiece Notre Dame de Paris.
analysis: both examples illustrate the truth that it is the same choice of many wise men to break the retreat and force themselves to succeed.

After returning to China, she took out all the 5, pounds donated by the British people to reward her and founded the world's first nursing school. She also wrote books and made great contributions to the establishment of modern nursing.
