The beacon fire played against the princes, referring to King You of Zhou during the Western Zhou Dynasty. He smiled for Bao Si (bāo                                                                                                              

Beacon was originally an emergency military alarm signal during the invasion of the enemy in ancient times. From the capital to the border town fortress, beacon towers were set up along the way. In order to prevent the invasion of the Quanrong, the Western Zhou Dynasty built more than 20 beacon towers in Mount Li near Haojing (southeast of Lintong, Shaanxi), one every few miles. Once the Quanrong attacked, the sentry first discovered immediately ignited beacon fires on the platform, and the adjacent beacon towers also ignited one after another to call the nearby princes. When the princes saw the beacon fire, they knew that the capital was in urgent need and the emperor was in trouble, so they had to raise troops to serve the king and come to rescue the emperor.

The beacon fire show the princes was just a catalyst for the demise of the Western Zhou Dynasty, which aggravated its demise. Even if there were no beacon fire show the princes, the Western Zhou Dynasty would sooner or later die in other events and could not be saved. The beacon fire show the princes was just an opportunity. As long as the emperor broke his promise, the princes would have great reliance on their promises, arrogance, and arrogance. Before the beacon fire show the princes, all the families had just expanded secretly. At that time, the regime was already shaky, and the beacon fire show the princes was just an initiator, an inducement from quantitative change to qualitative change. If this happened, there would still be other inducements. (If you are interested, you can check out Feng Menglong's "Records of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty".)

As a border town of Li County, the important town of Li County, since Tan Shouli rashly attacked the Hei Shui tribe and returned, Tan Shouli built a beacon tower in the place where the most likely signal to be sent out in Li County. Since the Yongkang Army went out of the pass to attack Feifengzhai, the wing soldiers, such as the official bandits of the Xiang soldiers, made an exception to let these wing soldiers enter the pass because of a group of Tubo people from afar. When the frequent beacons made the soldiers guarding the city run in the city walls, but in the end they did not see the enemy who was waiting for the battle, everyone began to become lazy about the thick smoke that had been emitted on the city certificate for a long time. People like the Xiang soldiers often only stared at the sky as if nothing had happened, and once again huddled in the hard shell on their backs like a snail, what should they do?

(Most of the people think that the first impression of the beacon is that it must be the wolf smoke lit by the wolf feces. After all, all novels are covered in this way, which may be related to the idiom of wolf smoke. If this is true, the Great Wall is long and the information transmission on the beacon tower is so large that it needs to be provided by a large wolf team. In fact, the wolf's digestibility is very strong. Burning wolf feces is like burning wool felts. The smoke emitted is light brown, which is lighter than the smoke emitted from the dry firewood pile. What fuel does the beacon use? It uses firewood. Populus, red willow, robose, seddened grass, white ts, camel grass, licorice, dry reeds, sedrals, etc., which can be used as fuel. Use dry firewood to attract fire and continue to wet firewood, and thick smoke will roll up. This is the true beacon.)

Tan Shouli also smelled an unusual smell. This was his intuition for so many years of being immersed in the officialdom. The reforms were not working in recent years. Lao Tzu's Shenzong Zhao Xu's reforms, and his son Zhezong Zhao Xu remained unchanged and restored. From then on, those who supported the reforms were called Yuanfeng Party members (Yuanfeng was the reign of Emperor Shenzong), and those who opposed the reforms were Yuanyou Party members. After that, he repeatedly came to Zhao Ji, Huizong. I remember that when Cai Xiang was tyrant, he made a pioneering move and made a new trick to erecting monuments, which was popular among the Chinese people. It was also a true portrayal of the ups and downs of the political career of the literati. At that time, the ministers of Yuanyou were demoted and died and moved to death, but Old Man Cai was still unhappy and ranked 120 people.

Among them were Sima Guang, Su Shi, Su Zhe, Lu Gong, Lu Dafang, etc., and their "crimes" were called "traitors". The monument was erected at Duanli Gate. From Duanli Gate, you can go to Wende Hall. Wende Hall was the Wei Dynasty Changchao Hall. Every day, all civil and military officials could see this monument. In addition, due to the solar eclipse, Yuan Fu asked for advice, he submitted no more than hundreds of books to write. According to this, Old Man Cai and his party designated it as the top and the top, middle and lower, and more than 500 people below Fan Rou were evil and could not live in the same state. Old Man Cai invited Huizong's imperial pen to write, and he also wrote "traitors" as a large monument, which was issued to the county and county, and ordered the supervisors and chief officials to carve stones, so that they could smell bad for generations. This is the famous Yuanyou Party Monument.

In the early days of the reform, everyone was doing everything awkward, and a small thing was tossing for half a year. The reformist party Wang Anshi and others followed the idea of ​​strengthening state power. The movement was too big, not only tormenting the officialdom, but also tormenting the people. Therefore, many people felt that it was better not to change. If the emperor did not change, the old man decided by himself was not easy to deny the reform himself. However, once the emperor changed, I died and my son came to power, the previous reform could be overthrown. Freud said that the sons had a complex of hatred for the father, and it was probably good to put it on the emperor. Confucius said that it was filial to not change the way of the father for three years. However, what I liked was, whether it was people or policies, and my son would definitely not like it. Therefore, my favorite ministers would definitely fall into the hands of his son. So, the Restoration Party, which was against the reform, came to power. However, Sima Guang and others came to power. , Too perfect, all new laws were abolished. Where is this reason? If the old laws were perfect, why did so many people change? How could political efficiency be so low? Some people who were summoned to the anti-reform side, such as Su Shi, actually agreed with some of the contents of Wang Anshi's reform (the law of exemption). However, if they wanted to place him in the Restoration faction, he had to be a member of the Yuanyou Party. In the late Wei Dynasty, the Restoration faction was not popular as a whole, so after a short Yuanyou period, the Restoration faction was unlucky. Su Shi was demoted and deposed, and sent to Danzhou on Hainan Island, which was equivalent to going to the ends of the world. Fortunately, he was open-minded and lived for a long time. Finally, he hoped that he would be rehabilitated, but he was dead again. Of course, he could not have thought that after his death, he would be tortured by others, and his name was engraved on a stone tablet, which made him infamous for thousands of years.

However, there was a little trouble when various prefectures and counties were engraved. At that time, the cultural market was developed, and among the Yuanyou Party members, Su Shi and Huang Tingjian became famous early. When they were alive, they could earn money by writing and painting. Due to the high degree of cultural popularity and the spread of the market, even peddlers knew the names of these people. Their calligraphy and paintings attracted people to like, and their articles also had fans, and they were loyal fans. The reason why Su Shi lived well during his exile was largely because he had fans everywhere. Fans did not care whether these people made political mistakes or should like it. There was no way to take photos, but it was common for them to ask for a poem. Of course, calligraphy and paintings and poems would not be in vain, and there were even beauties. Political commanders, class routes, etc., in those days, people had no idea.

Although everyone admires the emperor, the people who the emperor does not like may not be punished and will be punished by the whole country. Cai Jing wanted to engrave the Yuanyou Party Monument and find a carving worker. Some of these carving workers had carved poems by Su Shi and Huang Tingjian, but some were hard to figure it out. There was a carving worker named Li Zhongning in Jiujiang, who was very skilled. He received an order from the local officials to engrave the Party Monument. He said that the villain was poor and he could fill the body with the lyrics of Su Xueshu and Huang Xueshu. Now he wanted to engrave them on the stone in the name of a traitor. I couldn't bear it. There was also an excellent carving worker named An Shi in Chang'an, but he refused. The local officials whipped it. He had no choice but to say, if it was necessary, I could not engrave my name.

Although people always say that people who are righteous are often slaughtering dogs, and those who are unfaithful are scholars, they do not believe that the working people will definitely be more moral than those who are scholars. The people at the bottom are always not as fast as those who are scholars, and they must have some when they can't figure it out. What is good people and bad people are? They themselves have a standard, which is definitely not the same as the political standards above.
