Do you know who are the three most famous prodigies in the history of China?

The so-called prodigy refers to a gifted child who is superior to his peers in poetry, music or some skills. In ancient China, people like to distinguish young, Minhui, but few and mature children from ordinary children, and call them prodigies, and pay special attention to them.

First, Ganluo

Ganluo (about 256 BC-? ), Cai Xia at the end of the Warring States Period (now Ganluo Township, Yingshang County) [1]

. The grandson of Gan Mao, a famous minister of Qin State in the Warring States Period, was a famous young politician. Gan Luo was clever since he was a child. At an early age, he worshipped Lv Buwei, the prime minister of Qin State, and made him an illegitimate child. When Ganluo was twelve years old, he sent a mission to Zhao, which enabled Qin to get more than a dozen cities. Ganluo was named Shangqing (equivalent to the prime minister) by Qin Wangzheng (later Qin Shihuang), and he was rewarded with fields and houses. His later deeds are not recorded in history.

Ganluo is no one else. He was an official of the second generation, and his grandfather Gan Mao was a very capable politician of the State of Qin. He was the left prime minister of Qin. As the saying goes, "wise men come from relatives." Little Ganluo was exceptionally clever when he was young, but his grandfather died in a foreign country because he was excluded by his colleagues. Ganluo was at his wit's end, so he had to condescend to Lv Buwei, the powerful minister of Qin State, as a diner.

Second, the party

Fang (18,579-648) is from Linzi, qi zhou. Politician and prime minister in the early Tang Dynasty, one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyange, and the son of Fang, commander-in-chief of Jingyang in Sui Dynasty.

Grandfather's house bear, explaining the main book of Brown State; My father Fang, a native of Shandong in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, was eager to learn and argue.

Fang has been exposed since childhood and quite inherited his father's legacy. Smart since childhood, good at poetry and prose, well-read classics and history, proficient in Confucian classics, and also learned good calligraphy from my father. At the age of eighteen, the state promoted Jinshi and awarded him peace and discipline successively.

Third, Cai Wenji.

Cai Yan, Wen Xi, Evonne. The year of birth and death is unknown. Li was the daughter of Cai Yong, a great writer in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The first time I married Wei Zhongdao, my husband died and went home. Later, due to the invasion of Xiongnu, Cai Yan was abducted by Xiongnu Zuo, married to Xiongnu, and gave birth to two children. Twelve years later, Cao Cao unified the north, redeemed Cai Yan with a large sum of money, and betrothed her to Dong Si. 、

Cai Wenji was able to write good poems since he was a child, especially the sound of the piano. At the age of six, Wenxi pestered her father to teach her to play the piano, so Cai Yong played a song first. But I accidentally broke the first string because I played too hard. I don't know yet, so I played it right. Wenxi immediately recognized it and said, "Dad, you broke the first string!" " Cai Yong was startled. Her daughter has never learned to play the piano, and she has never even touched it. How did she realize that he had broken the first string? Cai Yong continued to play and deliberately broke the fourth string. Wenxi immediately recognized: "Dad, you broke the fourth string again!" " Cai Yong did not believe that her daughter really taught herself and mastered the melody.
