In ancient times, there was an outstanding monarch, and he was King Wen of Zhou. With his ingenuity and courage, he established the great Zhou Dynasty and became a great man.
However, despite his talents, he also made a mistake that left him with responsibility and self-blame.
On that day, the 800th year after the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, he decided to bear his mistakes and carry Jiang Ziya 800 steps, which became a good story handed down in history.
The story takes place in the early days when King Wen of Zhou had just established the Zhou Dynasty. At that time, the Zhou Dynasty faced many internal and external difficulties and resistances. At the time of the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, Jiang Ziya was one of King Wen of Zhou's most loyal and reliable advisers, as well as his military commander.
Jiang Ziya's talent and wisdom enabled the Zhou Dynasty to achieve many victories in internal and external wars, and made great contributions to the prosperity of the Zhou Dynasty.
However, in a decisive battle, King Wen of Zhou made a wrong decision because he coveted merit and glory.
Thinking that his victory had been secured, he ignored Jiang Ziya's opinion and ordered the army to attack the enemy's stronghold. As a result, the venture did not achieve any benefits, but instead led to heavy losses to the Zhou army, and the loss of many powerful soldiers.
When King Wen of Zhou realized his mistake, he felt deep self-reproach and pain in his heart. He understood that the responsibility for this fiasco lay entirely in his decision-making mistakes, and he did not listen to Jiang Ziya's wise advice, but acted as clever himself. In this regard, he felt very guilty and could not face Jiang Ziya and his subjects.
So, on the day of the 800th anniversary of the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, King Wen of Zhou decided to take responsibility for his mistakes and express his remorse to the world.
He decided to carry Jiang Ziya 800 steps to show his remorse and determination. These 800 steps represent the 800 years of the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, and also represent the years of bloody struggle between King Wen of Zhou and Jiang Ziya.
King Wen of Zhou began his 800-step journey. He shouldered a great historical responsibility and inner pain, and at every step flowed remorse and repentance. Every step he takes seems to be a reflection on his past mistakes, and it is also a feeling of gratitude and guilt for Jiang Ziya's silent efforts.
King Wen of Zhou carried Jiang Ziya on his back and walked through those 800 steps, and his body and mind seemed to have been purified and washed.
Every step is a story, and every step is a nostalgia and respect for history. In those 800 steps, he pondered the glory and regret of the past, and also thought about the future development and exploration.
Through this impressive move, King Wen of Zhou expressed his sincerity and humility to Jiang Ziya, and also conveyed a profound message to the people of the whole country: historical mistakes cannot be ignored or covered up by historical mistakes, but should be faced and borne squarely.
King Wen of Zhou showed the world the humility, responsibility and courage that a monarch should have by reciting Jiang Ziya for 800 steps.
In doing so, he hopes to show the people of the whole country that he is a monarch who is willing to accept criticism and reflection, that he will learn from his mistakes and take greater responsibility for the development of the country and the happiness of the people.
The story does not end after the 800 steps of King Wen of Zhou's back to be responsible. In the process of carrying Jiang Ziya's 800 steps, he had a deeper reflection on his mistakes and was determined to take measures to make up for his past mistakes.
He embarked on a series of reforms and adjustments to improve the political, military, and social systems of the Zhou dynasty to ensure that similar mistakes would not happen again.
King Wen of Zhou's humility and courage won the admiration and support of the people of the whole country. His actions serve as an example of courage and responsibility in the face of mistakes and setbacks.
His actions were not only a personal confession and repentance, but also an education and growth of the nation.
When carrying Jiang Ziya's 800 steps, the reason why King Zhou Wen did not choose to carry a few more steps was that he knew that responsibility and guilt were not made up for by quantity.
The 800 steps already represent the 800-year history of the Zhou Dynasty and Jiang Ziya's interaction with King Wen of Zhou, which is enough for people to understand and feel his inner world.
A few more steps will not change the mistakes of the past, but King Zhou's actions have sent a strong determination and message to the people: he is willing to take all responsibility for his mistakes and work for the development of the country and the welfare of the people.
The story of King Wen of Zhou's 800 steps on his back has been praised by future generations as a classic story.
