What are the outstanding teenagers in history who are not old? Give reasons

Gan Luo (date of birth and death unknown) was born in Cai Xia (now Yingshang, Anhui Province) of Chu State during the Warring States Period. He was brilliant since he was a child and was a famous young politician. Gan Luo was elected as the youngest politician in the history of China, world record association and China. His grandfather, Gan Mao, was a famous figure in Qin State, and once served as the left prime minister of Qin State. Under the guidance of grandpa, Ganluo was smart and eloquent from an early age and was deeply loved by his family. Later, Gan Mao was rejected by others, forced to flee from the State of Qin, and soon died in the State of Wei. In his early years, Gan Luo defected to the door of Lv Buwei, the prime minister of Qin State, and became his gifted scholar and distinguished guest.

At that time, the State of Qin tried to attack Zhao with the State of Yan, and planned to send Minister Zhang Tang to the State of Yan, but Zhang Tang refused. Lv Buwei was at his wit's end, and Ganluo volunteered to persuade Zhang Tang to take his place. Lv Buwei didn't believe him at first. Gan Luo said confidently, "Xiang Tuo became Confucius' teacher when he was seven years old. Now I 12 years old. Can't you let me have a try? " Lv Buwei had to agree to his request.

Gan Luo drove to Zhang Tang and said, "In those days, Wu disobeyed Hou's orders to attack Zhao, was driven out of Xianyang and died. Now Wen Xinhou's power is much greater than that of Ying Hou. If you disobey his orders, it seems that your death is not far away! " Hearing this, Zhang Tang was so scared that he promised to go to see Yan.

With the consent of the government, Gan Luo went to Zhao to lobby according to the intention of Qin State to expand Hejian County. In view of Zhao Wang's psychological state that Qin Yan's alliance is unfavorable to Zhao, he went to great lengths to say: "Qin Yan's alliance is nothing more than trying to occupy the land between Zhao and the river." If you cede the five cities of Hejian to the State of Qin, I can go back and persuade the King of Qin to cancel the mission of Zhang Tang and sever the alliance with the State of Yan. When the time comes, when you attack Yan, Qin will never interfere, and Zhao will have as many as five cities! " Zhao Wang was overjoyed and gave Ganluo the map and household registration of Hejian 5 cities. Ganluo returned with a full load, and Qin won the land of Hejian without a single soldier. The King of Qin named Ganluo, who was 0/2 years old, as Shangqing, and gave him the land that was named Gan Mao in that year. Because the rank of prime minister was similar to that of Shangqing at that time, people inferred that Ganluo was the prime minister of 12 years old.

In the Ming Dynasty, Yingshang County built the "Erxian Temple" to commemorate the grandparents of Gan Mao and Ganluo. Erxian Temple was expanded into Sixian Temple, dedicated to Guan Zhong and Bao.

Ganluo Biography:

Gan Luo, Sun Ye. After Mau's death, Gan Luo was twelve years old. He was an official of the Qin Dynasty, and Wen Xin Lv Hou was not Wei.

Qin Shihuang established Cai Ze, who had just become a monarch, in the State of Yan. For three years, the prince of Yan liked to make Taizi Dan hostage in Qin. Qin ordered Zhang Tang to go to Xiang Yan, hoping to cut the land between Zhao Yiguang and Yan. Zhang Tang said, Wen Xin Hou said, "I want to defeat Zhao as king, and Zhao resents me, saying,' If you win the Tang Dynasty, you will get a hundred miles of land. "Today's Yan must pass Zhao, but I can't. "Wen Xinhou unhappy, not with strong also.

Ganluo said, "Why are you so unhappy?" Wen Xinhou said, "I ordered Cai Ze, who just became king, to be a swallow for three years. Yan Taizi Dan has taken an oath. I asked to be a swallow, but I refused to do it. " Ganluo said, "Please do it." Wen Xin Hou scolded 1, "go! I came uninvited and refused. How can a woman do it? " Gan Luo said, "Xiang Tuo Sr followed Confucius at the age of seven. I was born here at the age of twelve today, so why bother to try? "

When Ganluo saw Zhang Qing, he said, "What did Wu Anjun do?" Qing said, "When we attacked Chu in the south and Yan and Zhao in the north, we were defeated and took it. I don't know the number of people, but my grades are not as good as mine. " Gan Luo said, "Which one should be used by Qin and which one should be used by Wen Xinhou?" Zhang Qing said: "I am not as expert as Wen Xin Hou." Gan Luo said, "Do you know that it is not as good as Wen Xin?" Say, "I know." Gan said, "If you want to attack Zhao later, you can't. He went to Xianyang Qili and died in Duyou. Today, Wen Xinhou invited Qing and refused to do so. I don't know where Qing died. " Zhang Tang said, "Please do it for the boy." Make it look good. One day after the trip, Ganluo called Wen Xinhou and said, "Please report to Zhao for Zhang Tang."

Wen Xinhou said to the late emperor, "Although Mao's grandson Gan Luo was young, he was the son of a noble family, and all the ministers heard about him. Today, Zhang Tangyu refused to do as he said, but Gan Luo did as he said. I am willing to report to Zhao first, please allow me to send it. "

He said, "Have you ever heard of Zhang Tang's love for Yan?" Say, "Smell it." "Yan Taizi Dan entered Qin, and Yan did not deceive Qin. Zhang Yan, Qin does not bully Yan. If Yan and Qin don't bully each other, it will be dangerous to attack Zhao. Yan and Qin did not bully each other and wanted to attack Zhao and Guanghe. The king is not as good as the five cities. Please return to the prince of Yan, so that the strong Zhao can attack the weak Yan. "

Wang Li of Zhao cut five cities to widen the river. Prince Qin Guiyan. Zhao attacked Yan, gained thirty cities in the valley, and eleven cities in the Qin Dynasty.

Ganluo returned this favor to Qin, but Ganluo thought it was supernatant, so he gave it to Tian Zhai.

Taishi Gong said: Gan Luo is young, but he wants to make a surprise plan and call himself a descendant. Although he was not a filial gentleman, he was also a counselor in the Warring States period. When Qin Fang is powerful, the world is especially eager to cheat.

Translation:

Ganluo is Gan Mao's grandson. When Gan Mao died, Gan Luo was only twelve years old and served Wen Xin Lv Hou, the prime minister of Qin.

Qin Shihuang sent Cai Ze, who had just become a monarch, to the State of Yan. Three years later, the monarch of the State of Yan gladly sent Taizi Dan to the State of Qin as a hostage. The State of Qin is going to send Zhang Tang to the State of Yan as the prime minister, and plans to attack Zhao Guolai with the State of Yan to expand the territory around Hejian. Zhang Tang said to Wen Xinhou, "I once attacked Zhao, and Zhao held a grudge against me. He once said,' Whoever can catch Zhang Tang will be given a hundred miles of land.' Now I have to go through Zhao to get to Yan, so I can't go. "Wen Xinhou listened to dissatisfaction, but there was no way to force him to go.

Ganluo said, "Hou Jun, why are you so glum?" Wen Xinhou said, "I asked Cai Ze, who just became a monarch, to serve in Yan for three years. Yan Taizi Dan came to Qin as a hostage. I personally invited Zhang Qing to be the minister of Yan, but he didn't want to go. " Ganluo said, "Please allow me to persuade him to go to Yan State." Wen Xin Hou said angrily, "Go away! I personally invited him to go, but he wouldn't. How can you let him go? " Gan Luo said, "Xiang Tuo became Confucius' teacher at the age of seven. Now, I am twelve years old. You'd better let me try. Why are you in such a hurry to scold me? " So Wen Xinhou agreed.

Gan Luo went to see Zhang Qing and said, "Who made a great contribution to Wu' an Jun Bai Qi?" He said, "He defeated the powerful Chu State in the south and frightened Yan and Zhao in the north. He can win wars, seize cities, seize cities, and countless other things. My contribution is not comparable to his. " Gan Luo also said: "When Fan Sui was the prime minister of Qin, who had more power than Wen Xinhou now?" Zhang Qing said, "Won Hou is not as good as Wen Xinhou. "Gan Luo went on to say," Do you really understand that Won Hou is not as bad as Wen Xinhou? Zhang Qing said: "I really understand this." Gan Luo went on to say, "Hou Ying wanted to attack Zhao, but he deliberately embarrassed him. As a result, Wu Anjun died in Du You as soon as he left the Qilidi in Xianyang. Now Wen Xinhou personally invited you to be the prime minister of Yan State, but you refused. I don't know where you will die. " Zhang Tang said, "then go to Yan according to your boy's opinion. "Then let people pack up and get ready to go. Ganluo said to Wen Xinhou, "Lend me five carriages, please allow me to go to Yan first for Zhang Tang and say hello to Zhao. "

When Wen Xinhou entered the palace, he reported Ganluo's request to Qin Shihuang, saying, "Once upon a time, there was a grandson named Ganluo in Gan Mao. He was very young, but he was a descendant of a famous family, so you all heard about him. Recently, Zhang Tang wanted to find an excuse to say that he was ill and didn't want to go to Yan. Ganluo advised him to go resolutely. Now Ganluo is willing to report Zhang Tang to Zhao. Please allow him to send it. "

Qin Shihuang summoned Ganluo and sent him to see Zhao.

King Xiang of Zhao went to the suburbs to meet Ganluo. Gan Luo persuaded Wang Zhao and asked, "Did your majesty hear that Yan Taizi Dan was taken hostage in Qin?" Wang Zhao replied, "I heard." Gan Luo asked again, "I heard that Zhang Tang is going to be the prime minister of Yan State?" Wang Zhao replied, "I heard." Gan Luo went on to say: "Yan Taizi Dan came to Qin, which shows that Yan did not deceive Qin." Zhang Tang's appointment to Yan State shows that Qin State does not cheat Yan State. Yan and Qin do not bully each other. Obviously, they want to jointly attack Zhao, and Zhao will be in danger. Yan and Qin bullied each other only to attack Zhao and expand their territory in Hejian. Your Majesty might as well give me five cities to expand the territory of Qin in Hejian. I asked the king of Qin to send the prince back and then help the powerful Zhao attack the weak Yan. "

The prince of Zhao immediately drew five cities in Hejian to expand the territory of Qin. When Qin sent the Prince of Yan back, Zhao attacked Yan without fear. As a result, there are 30 cities in Shanggu, of which Qin occupies 1 1.

When Ganluo came back, he reported the situation to the king of Qin, who named Ganluo Shangqing and gave Ganluo the original farmland house in Gan Mao.

Tai Shigong said: Gan Luo was very young, but he gave a wonderful plan, which will be remembered by future generations. Although he was not an upright gentleman, he was also a veritable counselor in the Warring States period. You know, when the state of Qin was strong, the art of contingency was practiced in a special period in the world!

It shows that during the Warring States Period, during the reign of King Wu of Qin State, Gui Lizi and he made great achievements in the struggle with Korea, Zhao, Wei, Chu and other eastern countries, so the Taishi wrote the eleventh volume of the Biography of Gui Li Gan Mao. "But this biography is enduring, mainly because it vividly records the deeds of a young politician, Gan Luo.

Gan Luo is only twelve years old, but he has insight into the current situation. He used the contradictions between countries to solve the problems that the Prime Minister could not solve, so that the State of Qin won the five cities of Zhao without a single soldier. Ganluo is a promising young man. At the age of twelve, he became an official of the State of Qin, not because of his genius, but also because of the objective environment at that time. As the theory of praise says: "When Qin Fang is strong, the world is particularly prone to fraud." Sima Qian noticed this problem at that time, which was commendable.
