"If you use copper as a mirror, you will straighten your clothes;People as a mirror, you can know the gains and losses;Taking history as a mirror, we can know and replace。The author of this statement is Li Shimin, one of the most famous and successful emperors in Chinese history - Tang Taizong。 Since ancient times, people always like to put the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty together to comment, just like the pure and lofty lotus against the mud, satin foil the bright and beautiful peony。In the face of such a powerful dynasty as Tang Dynasty, the decades of Sui dynasty were just a flash in the pan。Perhaps people remember the length of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, remember the merits and faults of the imperial examination system, and remember that the founder of these were Emperor Yang Guang？ Crossing the short-lived Sui Dynasty, recalling the dusty past of a thousand years ago, came to the powerful Tang Dynasty, the excellence of the Tang is beyond doubt。From the destruction of Tang Gaozu Sui, to the Xuanwu Gate incident, the rule of Zhenguan, and then to the Empress Wu Zetian, Kaiyuan flourishing, An Shi rebellion, until the decline。With a long history of nearly three hundred years, it has interpreted a peak of Chinese history。It's not just the big thing。Xuanzang's pilgrimage to the west, Princess Wencheng's marriage to Tibet, and the novel discoveries of Tang history all showed harmony and prosperity。Even the tidbits that dot history are vivid and real。From the magnificent city of Chang 'an to the gurgling water in the Bianhe River, they are all so ancient and long。 Perhaps this book is not as real and authoritative as the New Book of Tang, but the flowing ink seems to take you through the world more than a thousand years ago。 Seeing all this, I sometimes ask myself, what is the purpose of reading history？History books, it is not to show you the glory of the old times, it will tell you the reason for the success of the ancients, have the spirit。 Take Li Shimin as an example, a teenager to follow his father gallop the battlefield, which day does not lick blood on the tip of the knife, nervous。Basalt gate one day, he killed his brothers out of self-preservation。When the dust settled, the land lay beneath his feet。But is this all just a result of fate, of being reincarnated？Those of us who grew up in the honey pot after 90 can not lift hands, shoulders can not carry。How can we take on the great responsibility without the experience of straining our muscles and bones and starving our body and skin？How can you weep if you stand in the hot sun for hours, when you can be beheaded all the time？ Yellow sand long, misty, the past is not like smoke, those history can not be forgotten。Because they are always telling us: "Seize every minute of life, no one can casually succeed.。"Even if it is the emperor, it is also countless tempered。 The heart is not dead, the country is not dead, life without regret a backbone。Life and death, ever thought, comfort me China forever。Look up, like a fire in the morning sun, see me draw my sword to the sky。The burning morning sun encourages us: Hope is ahead!
