The internship and training in the social workplace when I was a student is a gift of life for me who has developed his sideburns today. In the spring of 1980, several of my classmates and I began our graduation internship at Huaxian Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This is the transition of our life role from a student to a doctor, the connection of life choices from school study to hospital work, and the leap from the school to the society. Dale Carnegie once said that one of the fortunate things in life is to meet a good teacher, and we met a group of good teachers with noble medical ethics, exquisite medical skills, kind medical words, and dignified medical practice. In our spare time, we also chatted about the well-known Chishui green onions, the Weihua Uprising that occurred in Gaotang, and the fashionable ** mirror bell pants tape recorder, and also mentioned the dazzling Guo Ziyi in history many times.

When I came to Huaxian, I learned that Guo Ziyi was from Huaxian. Speaking of Guo Ziyi, we can't fail to mention the Anshi Rebellion. The Anshi Rebellion was a major event in the Tang Dynasty and an important reason for the Tang Dynasty's transformation from prosperity to decline. An Lushan is a mixed-race child, with a big belly and three thick poop in appearance, but his mind is full of intrigue and bad water. People say"One white covers all ugliness, and one fat destroys all", but An Lushan can pretend to be stupid and cute, which is deeply liked by Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei. Tang Xuanzong asked him what he had in his big belly, and he said that he was loyal to the emperor"Red gall"Loyal, he worships Yang Guifei, who is more than ten years younger than him, as his godmother and lets the concubine go"Baptism"。This incident may be a folk fabrication, and it is a delusion to listen to it. The truth of some things is not important, the important thing is the result, An Lushan has become the envoy of the Three Towns Festival, on the horse to manage the army, off the horse to manage the people, and the power is for a while.

People say"A soldier who does not want to be a marshal is not a good soldier"In the same way, it can be said that if you don't want to be the emperor, you are not a good festival. With the expansion of An Lushan's strength, his ambitions are also rapidly expanding and tearing off"Pseudo-loyalty"The mask, with Shi Siming"Yu Yangqing came agitatedly, breaking the song of neon clothes and feathers", Tang Xuanzong Li Longji left Sichuan and Shu in a panic, and the prince Li Heng hurriedly went north to Lingwu, and the Tang Dynasty was in danger.

The wind knows the grass, and the board knows the Chengchen", Li Heng resolutely ascended the throne and became the emperor when Xuanzong was still in power, which was for Suzong, and Xuanzong had no choice but to approve it. Guo Ziyi was ordered to turn the tide of the tide, help the building to fall, and rebuild the Tang Dynasty. "Those who know are easy to break, and those who are bright are easy to stain"。In general"The merit is high and the master is covered, the majesty is shocked, the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, and the bird is hidden by the bow", is the fate of some loyal heroes in feudal society that is difficult to get rid of, but Guo Ziyi is an exception. "Old Tang Book", "New Tang Book", "Zizhi Tongjian" and so on all gave him a very high evaluation:"The world has been in danger for twenty years. The merit covers the world and the Lord is not suspicious, the people are extremely popular and the people are not jealous, and the poor and extravagant are not wrong"。Such a person is unprecedented, and there are few people who have come after. It is rare for Guo Ziyi to enjoy her life and retire with her whole body. Thinking about it carefully, he has no desire for power or profit, but he is very sober-minded, working hard outside, teaching his children strictly at home, doing things in a high-profile manner, being a low-key person, being strict with himself, indifferent to fame and fortune, and not being proud of his achievements, so he can walk on thin ice as if he were on a smooth road.

Working hard outside. Needless to say, in a word, he is called to come, he can fight, he can win the battle, rebuild the Tang Dynasty, and make great contributions. Even if he is at home, he is still concerned about the court and society, and he has no complaints.

Teach your children strictly at home. To cite just one example, the opera "Striking the Golden Branch" tells this story. Guo Ziyi celebrated her 70th birthday, and her seven sons and eight sons-in-law both came to celebrate her birthday, but the sixth son, Guo Hua, was alone, and her daughter-in-law Li Junrui was not present. Everyone joked with Guo Nuan, saying that he was suffering from tracheitis (his wife was strict), and Guo Hua was annoyed and angry. When he returned home, he slapped his wife a few times with the strength of alcohol. His daughter-in-law's mother's family is very powerful, his daughter-in-law's father is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, as the daughter-in-law of the Guo family, Princess Shengping relies on her mother's power and power, and does not abide by her duty as a daughter-in-law on weekdays, but holds the master's shelf, she thinks she can't give her father-in-law, a courtier, a birthday salute. Guo Nuan not only slapped his daughter-in-law, but also teased his daughter-in-law, don't you just rely on your father to be the emperor, my father is not rare to be the emperor, if my father wants to be, will it be your father's turn? To say this is to commit treason.

Some people will say that this is a joke between husband and wife, an angry talk, a drunken word, and there is no need to take it seriously. In fact, it is not, any joke has a serious component in it, and what you say when you are angry is actually the voice that you really want to express in your heart, and spit out the truth after drinking. This was later studied and proved by Freud, a master of psychoanalysis. Usually constrained by various social norms, some words are inconvenient to say or dare not say, people or when they are joking or angry or drunk, some inner thoughts will break through the bottom line, break through the shackles, express their subconscious, express their true thoughts. Guo Hua belongs to this situation, this Shaanxi stunned baby is a big deal.

Princess Shengping, who had never been so wronged, immediately went back to her parents' house to complain, and Guo Ziyi immediately tied up her son Guo Hua and pleaded guilty. Fortunately, Tang Dynasty Sect Li Yu is a person who understands family affairs, he said"Don't be stupid, don't be deaf, don't be a family", big things turned into small things, small things turned into small things, a crisis was resolved, Princess Shengping was also educated, and a small couple lived a good life. Guo Ziyi teaches his children well, and his juniors are also talented.

Indifferent to fame and fortune can be a model. Guo Ziyi is to share worries and interests for the court, and share worries without fame. After he quelled the rebellion of Fugu Huai'en, the court wanted to seal him as Shangshuling, but he insisted on not accepting it but asked for six beauties. People don't understand that in fact, this is the same dust as the light, not the same stream, this is the wisdom of being a big official. In order to let the emperor dispel his doubts and sleep soundly, Guo Ziyi would rather destroy his reputation. The door of his house is open all day long, there are no guards, people are allowed to enter and exit, and there is no personal privacy, which is what makes him clever.

After Guo Ziyi died, he was buried in the Jianling Mausoleum of Tang Suzong (now Poyang Village, Zhaoling Town, Liquan County, Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province).

Huaxian is a hot land of Zhong Lingyuxiu, Wuhua Tianbao, and outstanding people, low-key, unassuming, pragmatic and unambitious is Guo Ziyi's background, his story is spread here, and it has always left its due place in history. Here I talk about Guo Ziyi, and I also miss my teachers who saved lives and helped the wounded and were famous in Xinglin.
