Chapter 121

"By the way, after Liu Xun stabbed the two ministers to death, the others were frightened and fell to their knees. Who would dare to say no more?"

"At that time, Liu Xun's eyes were wide open. He was talking about my personal grievances. When I need you to point fingers, he kicked the minister who was closer to him on the spot."

"The one we talked about just now is the minister who talked back to Liu Xun, and he was stabbed to death by Liu Xun."

"Speaking of this, some people may say that Liu Xun, as an emperor, has disregarded human life and committed suicide without authorization. Isn't this emperor too unqualified?"

"Although this is the case, it does not prevent Liu Xun from later becoming the founder of Hanxuan Zhongxing. This is enough to explain his achievements in the later period."

"Although the early stage of the upper echelon was not very good, everyone must know that Liu Xun's life was quite difficult in the first few years when he became emperor."

"First, Huo Guang controlled the government, and he himself had no real power at all. Later, Huo Guang's youngest daughter, Huo Chengjun, poisoned Xu Pingjun. This kind of political factor is beyond Liu Xun's control."

"This also caused him to have a relatively antagonistic prejudice against some big clans, because Huo Guang's lessons learned from the past are there, so he killed people, to a certain extent, it is justifiable."

"Of course, I'm not clearing Liu Xun of his crimes. Everything he did was done according to his own wishes, and no one can change it."

"To deal with a historical figure, our description and evaluation must be all-round, and we cannot evaluate and describe a historical figure that has passed away one-sidedly."

"Okay, my story is over. Next, you can take a look at the things I sell. They are all born and bred, fished out of Tianfang Lake and finely polished..."

The story was finally over, and the vendor began to return to his original life as a vendor, continuing to sell his small items.

After the unremitting efforts of the street vendors, more and more tourists came to buy his small items, because after listening to the stories he told for so long, if I didn’t buy one or two, I really felt sorry for him.

But Jiang Xiaoli and Teacher Miao had already bought them just now. They bought two sun hats, and then bought two sunglasses. After wearing them, hey, the temperament was really reflected immediately.

If you want to ask what Jiang Xiaoli has, it is of course that his whole body exudes a strong melancholic temperament.

After Mr. Miao put on the sun hat and sunglasses, the whole person seemed to be different, very sunny and pure.

Afterwards, the two continued to move towards the viewing platform on the east side, talking and laughing while walking, Teacher Miao even asked:

"What do you think of what the history teacher said just now?"

Speaking of the history teacher who told the story just now, Jiang Xiaoli kept calling him a street vendor in his heart, and almost forgot about him. He turned out to be a history teacher.

But a history teacher, why would he come here to sell things?This is what Jiang Xiaoli doesn't understand.

But when it comes to the ability of the street vendor to tell stories, in Jiang Xiaoli's opinion, it is still very good and deserves a thumbs up, so Jiang Xiaoli replied:

"The old man spoke very well, very vivid, and very immersive. Especially the part where Liu Xun dug Huo Guang's tomb, I think it's quite thought-provoking."

Teacher Miao nodded, seeming to agree with Jiang Xiaoli's statement, and then added: "Actually, the part that touched me the most was the part where Xu Pingjun was poisoned, it broke my heart."

Indeed, Xu Pingjun and Liu Xun have such a good relationship, and Xu Pingjun also gave birth to two princes for Liu Xun, a truly good wife.

It's a pity that they were poisoned by Huo Chengjun and Chun Yuyan, otherwise the loving life of Xu Pingjun and Liu Xun would have lasted for a longer period of time, and it would even have become a good story.

After a while, Teacher Miao continued to ask: "This old history teacher comes here every Sunday to sell some small items, not every day."

"And every time he comes, as long as there are many people, he will tell stories, but the stories he tells are completely different every time. We are lucky today, and heard him tell a story about Tianfang Lake."

Um?There is still such an operation?Every time I come here, I have to tell a story, how knowledgeable this old teacher is.

But how did Teacher Miao know?
Before Jiang Xiaoli asked, Teacher Miao had already seen his confusion, so he smiled to himself and said:

"When I first came to our school, my teaching duties were not heavy at that time, so when I had free time on Saturdays and Sundays, I would come here to enjoy the scenery of Tianfang Lake."

"One time when I came here, I happened to meet the old man telling a story. Because I majored in history, I stopped and listened carefully for a while, and it was out of control from then on."

"The old man speaks very well and is very useful to my teaching, so every Sunday as long as I have time, I must come here to listen to his stories."

"Every time the old man tells a new story, there are anecdotes from all dynasties and generations. Of course, more content comes from unofficial history, as did the one just now."

That is to say, a large part of the stories about Liu Xun and Huo Guang told by the old man just now are unofficial histories, so the credibility is not high?
Teacher Miao continued: "Although the credibility is not high, it does present us with a wonderful story, and the general direction and theme remain unchanged."

"For me, if I can combine these stories with teaching content and then tell you, as long as it is interesting, you will definitely listen to it, and it is easy to remember."

This is indeed the case, for example, Jiang Xiaoli only knew superficially about the history of the Western Han Dynasty before, although he still does now.

But through the old man's story, Jiang Xiaoli knew that in the Western Han Dynasty, there were people like Huo Yu, Huo Chengjun, Xu Pingjun and so on.

He even knew the name of the next emperor after Emperor Xuan of Han, that is, Emperor Han Yuan, Liu Shi, which Jiang Xiaoli didn't know before.

In any case, the old man's story made Jiang Xiaoli further interested in the history of the Western Han Dynasty. This is the ultimate meaning of spreading a good story.

Speaking of this, Jiang Xiaoli had no choice but to ask the question he couldn't think of, he said:
"Teacher, that old gentleman is also a history teacher, why is he here to sell things instead of teaching?"

Teacher Miao shook his head and said, "I'm not very clear about this. I only heard from other people that he is a history teacher, and he started selling things here about eight years ago."

eight years ago?What is the hidden story of this old teacher?Why did he come here to sell things?Does the scenic spot also allow his behavior?
