Li Yu Loses His Kingdom

After the fall of the Tang Dynasty in 907, Five dynasties - the Later Liang (907-923), Later Tang (923-936), Later Jin (936-947), Later Han (947-951 ) and Later Zhou (951-960) - quickly succeeded one another in the north, and ten independent states - Wu, Wuyue, Min, Chu, Southern Han, Former Shu, Later Shu, Jingnan, Southern Tang and Northern Han - were established, mainly in the south.

The Southern Tang, one of the Ten Kingdoms, was founded in 937. The capital was located in Jinling (present-day Nanjing in Jiangsu Province). The state was named Tang (history would refer to it as the Southern Tang). The Southern Tang was conquered in 975 by the Northern Song. It was ruled by three emperors and lasted a total of 39 years.

Li Yu (937-978), the last ruler of the Southern Tang ascended the throne in 961. He is historically known as Li Houzhu (literally meaning the last lord of the Southern Tang).

This fertile land was large and prosperous compared to the other Ten States of that period. However, the three generations of emperors were so mediocre that they wasted all their natural advantages.

Li Yu was a very peculiar monarch. He was idiotic in terms of politics, but an excellent ruler in terms of the arts. He was skilled in calligraphy, music, painting, and poetry, especially the ci form. He has been called the “first true master” of the ci form in the history of Chinese poetry.

After founding the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin launched successive military expeditions against the neighboring kingdoms. Several small states were easily conquered, so Li Yu began to panic. His first plan was to pay large tribute to the Song court so as to maintain his power. Then he wrote a letter to the Song emperor, saying that he was willing to discard the title of “Southern Tang” and to term himself “lord of the regions south of the Yangtze River.” However, his proposals did nothing to change Zhao Kuangyin’s determination to unify all China under the Song banner.

In 974, Song Emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin sent 100,000 troops to attack the Southern Tang by water and land. Arriving at the banks of the Yangtze River, the Song Dynasty armies prepared to cross the river by building a floating bridge in order to attack Jinling. Hearing this news, Li Yu did not believe it, and continued drinking with his ministers.

The Song Dynasty armies crossed the Yangtze River and quickly arrived at the gates of Jinling. At that time Li Yu was chanting sutras and praying with the monks and Taoist priests in the palace. On the second day, he went up to the gate tower to make his rounds. Immediately he saw the banners of the Song Dynasty armies all around his capital. He immediately sent a special envoy to the capital of the Song Dynasty to sue for peace.

The peace talk failed and the two armies fought. The Southern Tang army was annihalated. Before the Song army could conquer his capital, Li Yu piled up a lot of straw in the palace. He planned to set fire to it and take his own life, but in the end he couldn’t go through with it. He was taken captive by the Song Dynasty armies. The Southern Tang state ceased to be.

Li Yu was marched off to the capital of the Song Dynasty and was made the Marquess of Wei Ming (literally, the Marquess of Disobeyed Edicts) by Song Emperor Taizu.

Li Yu became a prisoner. However, his best-known poems were composed during the years after the Song formally ended his reign in 975. Li’s works from this period dwell on his lament for his lost kingdom and the pleasure it had brought him.

Song Emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin passed away in 976. Li Yu was poisoned by the Song emperor Taizong Zhao Jiong (namely Zhao Kuangyi) in 977.

前言/序言

Preface

China has written history of about 5,000 years. “Chinese history” here refers to the part of the Chinese history form the Xia Dynasty in 2070 BC until the Revolution of 1911 that overthrew the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), China’s last feudal dynasty.

During the prolonged period of time, the Chinese created a splendid civilization, and Chinese achievements made during the period in socio-economic development exerted great influence on the world as a whole.

The long history has given birth to many historical figures and stories related to them. Many Chinese idioms, slangs and sayings are rooted in them. They become the core of China’s ancient civilization, and helped enrich the Chinese language, ideology and the way the Chinese behave.

Stories taken in the book are few in number, but are expected to be good enough to help readers learn more of China.

物流速度非常快。书还没有看。

纸张、印刷、内容都不错，值得推荐购买

人的一生中之所以能不断提高，与其始终如一的学习是分不开的，所谓活到老学到老，庄子说，吾生也有涯，而知无涯。知识是没有穷尽的，坚持学习让人始终处于不败之地。反之，没有知识的不断补充和积累，人便会落后于时代。歌德说过，谁落后于时代，就将承受那个时代所有的痛苦。特别是在现今知识爆炸的年代里，不能接触新的知识便会被时代所淘汰。 　　对于我们学习新的知识来面对新的挑战，更是不可忽视的。它能提供我们精神动力和智力支持。正如高尔基所说，没有任何力量比知识更强大，用知识武装起来的人是不可战胜的。 　　一、读书可以让我们站在更高的高度来看问题，从而少犯错误，少走弯路。 　　牛顿说过他能取得如此巨大的成就，是因为站在巨人的肩上看得更远，科学巨人的虚怀若谷自然值得我们学习，我们还可以从中学到更有价值的东西。书籍对于整个人类的关系，好比记忆对于个人的关系。书籍记录了人类的历史，记录了所有的新发现，记载了古今历代所积累的知识和经验。只有认真的学习前人的经验和理论，才能在一个更高的高度上来看问题，不再犯同样的错误，并有一个较高的起点。书本是前人智慧的结晶，是他们的研究成果和经验的体现，通过对他们的学习，发现对自己有用的东西。在前人经验的基础上来不断的完善自己，大大的促进了个人的成长。在很大程度上可以这样说，人类社会的延续和发展，也是这样来实现的。试想，如果每个人都是从头开始，那么，无论多么伟大的人，做出多么大的贡献，人类社会最终还是在原地踏步。由此更可见读书的重要性了。 　　二、读书开阔人的视野 　　书本中的知识可谓是包罗万象，他能拓宽我们的视野，让我们的知识更全面。从而能够更深刻的思考问题，事物都是广泛联系的，现代的许多实践都证明了各种信息的相关性，如果只知道一个领域的信息，必然会有碍于自身的发展，掌握更多方面的知识，才能使未来的不确定风险降至最低。就像做股票的人都应了解当今的政治经济形势，以便能更好的分析股票走势一样。研究物理学的学者们都要有一定的化学和其他基础，才能有所成就。记得一位诺贝尔获奖者在复旦做讲演时就曾说过，现代科学已没有明显的界限，你必须对相关的科学都有所了解才行。在这方面，伟大的导师恩格斯就是一位广泛学习的典范，他虽然只上过中学，但由于他发奋读书，十九岁时就能用十二种语言说话和写文章，在参加工作实践后，他也没有间断过学习和研究，从而被马克斯称为一部真正的百科全书。广博渊深的知识，对恩格斯指导国际共产主义运动和准确的传播科学共产主义理论有很大的帮助。 从它的经历中，我们可以体会到知识的力量，更能体会到书本做为人类掌握知识力量的有力武器的巨大作用。 　　三、读书有助于我们树立正确的人生观 　　人生来无善亦无恶，关键是正确的引导。在人的成长过程中，有一位良师益友就能起到很积极的作用，书本就是这样的一位。一本好书就如一个好的导师，它能教你如何做人，做一个于己于社会都有用的人。书籍能安慰我们的心灵，使我们摆脱悲哀和痛苦的羁绊；书籍可以使枯燥乏味的岁月化为令人愉快的时光。书必将各种信念注入我们的脑海，使我们充满崇高的欢乐和思想，从而使我们入神忘情，灵魂升华。[BJTJ]，[NRJJ]，[ZZ]写的书确实值得一读。京东的快递也很给力。

好东西。好东西。好东西。重要事情说三遍。

孩子喜爱的英语故事书

性价比很高 书是正版的，之前有过担心滴。内容还行吧，尽管我没觉得有多充实。冲着是名人写的，书的质量还行就不挑剔了。卖家发货挺快的，第二天就收到了。书还是不错的，精装外壳，发货速度真心的快，评价晚了，书不错，应该再早点看的。推荐看，只是粗浅认识了一下，已经感觉到自己逻辑思维更加清晰。好书，受益匪浅，如果不好好研究一下此书，绝对是人生一大遗憾。这天女友打电话问我借本书，说她写作需要参考，我说我家没有，但我可以帮你找。我一边接电话一边就上网搜索，很快找到，立马告诉她网上京东有。她说我不会在网上买书啊。我嘲笑她一番，然后表示帮她买。很快就写好订单写好她的地址发出去了。果然第二天，书就送到她那儿了。她很高兴，我很得意。过了些日子，我自己又上网购书，但下订单后，左等右等不来。以前从来不超过一星期的。我正奇怪呢，刘静打电话来笑嘻嘻地说，哎，也不知道是谁，心眼儿那么好，又帮我订了好几本书，全是我想要的，太好了。我一听，连忙问她是哪几本？她一一说出书名，晕，那是我买的书啊。原来我下订单的时候，忘了把地址改过来，送到她那儿去了。这下可把她乐死了，把我先前对她的嘲笑全还给我了。不过京东送货确实很快。我和女友都很满意。好了，废话不说。|好了，我现在来说说这本书的观感吧，坐得冷板凳，耐得清寂夜，是为学之根本；独处不寂寞，游走自在乐，是为人之良质。潜心学问，风姿初显。喜爱独处，以窥视内心，反观自我；砥砺思想，磨砺意志。学与诗，文与思；青春之神思飞扬与学问之静寂孤独本是一种应该的、美好的平衡。在中国传统文人那里，诗人性情，学者本分，一脉相承久矣。现在讲究“术业有专攻”，分界逐渐明确，诗与学渐离渐远。此脉悬若一线，惜乎。我青年游历治学，晚年回首成书，记忆清新如初，景物历历如昨。挥发诗人情怀，摹写学者本分，意足矣，足已矣。现在，京东域名正式更换为JDCOM。其中的“JD”是京东汉语拼音（JING DON|G）首字母组合。从此，您不用再特意记忆京东的域名，也无需先搜索再点击，只要在浏览器输入JD.COM，即可方便快捷地访问京东，实现轻松购物。名为“Joy”的京东吉祥物我很喜欢，TA承载着京东对我们的承诺和努力。狗以对主人忠诚而著称，同时也拥有正直的品行，和快捷的奔跑速度。太喜爱京东了。|给大家介绍本好书《我们如何走到这一步》自序：这些年，你过得怎么样我曾经想过，如果能时光穿梭，遇见从前的自己，是否可以和她做朋友。但我审慎地不敢发表意见。因为从前的自己是多么无知，这件事是很清楚的。就算怀着再复杂的爱去回望，没准儿也能气个半死，看着她在那条傻乎乎的路上跌跌撞撞前行，忍不住开口相劝，搞不好还会被她厌弃。你看天下的事情往往都是一厢情愿。当然我也忍住了各种吐槽，人总是要给自己留余地的，因为还有一种可能是，未来的自己回望现在，看见的还是一个人。好在现在不敢轻易放狠话了，所以总算显得比年轻的时候还有一分从容。但不管什么时候的你，都是你。这时间轴上反复上演的就是打怪兽的过程。过去困扰你的事情，现在已可轻易解决，但往往还有更大的boss在前面等你。“人怎么可能没有烦恼呢”——无论是你初中毕业的那个午后，或者多年后功成名就那一天，总有不同忧伤涌上心头：有些烦恼是钱可以解决的，而更伤悲的是有些烦恼是钱解决不了的。我们曾经在年少时想象的“等到什么什么的时候就一切都好起来了”根本就是个谬论。所以，只能咬着牙继续朝前走吧。

书是小本的，挺好的，我用来学习英语用的，还买了英汉字典，准备不会的就查，哈哈
