Uncle Le didn't want to fight with him, and he didn't want to fight with Uncle Le either. Anyway, that's what happened: in Uncle Le's eyes, Mr. Le's doctrine and ideas were full of errors.

But! He argued with Uncle Le, and he failed. He could not argue with Uncle Le, as if his doctrine and ideas were wrong. But! Both he and his husband were unconvinced.

It's true! It's right, but why is it wrong?

What's wrong? Obviously looking forward to a good life for the people, why is it wrong?

After a pause, Zeng Shen continued to read the Analects, reading the content he had arranged.

Zi said: "Poor without grievances, rich without arrogance." ”

"What do you mean?" Lege asked habitually.

Zeng Shen explained: "Mr. said: It is difficult to be poor without resentment, and it is easy to be rich without pride. ”

"Your husband has used Lao Tzu's dialectic! Hey! Le Ge said.

"Yes! It's got this smell! I'm just putting this kind of words together! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen admitted.

"Hmmm! Good! Go on! Le Ge replied.

"Thank you!" Zeng Shen Dao.

Zi said: "Meng Gong is the old man of Zhao Wei, and he can't be a doctor of Teng Xue." ”

"Interpret it!"

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen explained: "Mr. said: Meng Gongyu is more than capable as a retainer of the Yue clan and the Wei clan of the Jin Kingdom, but he cannot be a doctor in a small country like Teng and Xue. ”

"What do you mean? Explain it specifically? Who is Meng Gongqiu? Lege asked.

Zeng Shen further explained: "Meng Gongxuan: Doctor Lu Guo, belongs to the Mengsun family. ”

"Oh?"

"Teng, a very small vassal state. Xue is also a very small vassal state. ”

"Oh?"

"What Mr. means: Meng Gongyu can be a retainer, but it may be difficult to be a doctor for a small prince!"

"That?" Le Ge asked, "Does your husband think that Meng Gongqiu's ability is limited?" ”

"Definitely!" Zeng Shen corrected: "What Mr. means: everyone has their own talents, and their talents are different!" It's not that Meng Gongxuan's talent is not enough, but 'the amount is applicable', that's what it means! Uncle Le! ”

"Oh! I get it! Read on! ”

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen agreed.

Zilu asked the adult. Zi said: "If Zang Wuzhong knows, the public does not want, Bian Zhuangzi's bravery, Ran Qiu's art, and literature is etiquette and music, it can also be an adult." He said, "Why is it necessary to be an adult today?" See Li Siyi, see the danger and give orders, and if you don't forget the words of your life for a long time, you can also be an adult. ”

"What do you mean? Interpret it? Lege asked habitually.

Zeng Shen explained: "Zilu asked: What is a perfect person. Mr. said: If you have the wisdom of Zang Wuzhong, the restraint of Meng Gongqiu, the bravery of Bian Zhuangzi, and the versatility of Ran Qiu, and then modify it with etiquette and music, you can be regarded as a perfect person. Such a person is perfect enough. And he said, "Why does it have to be like this for the present perfect man?" Seeing wealth and thinking of the requirements of righteousness, daring to face dangers, and not forgetting the promise of the day when you are in poverty for a long time, you can also be regarded as a perfect person. ”

"What do you mean?" Le Ge frowned again and asked puzzled.

Zeng Shen further explained: "Sir believes that a perfect person should be wise, restrained, brave, versatile, and well-groomed. But Mr. felt that this requirement was too high for ordinary people to do. Such a requirement may be misleading and give the impression that 'no one is perfect'. So, the gentleman lowered the requirements. As long as you do this, you are perfect. This is: when you see wealth and profit, you think of the requirements of righteousness, dare to face danger when you encounter danger, and stay in poverty for a long time without forgetting your promises, so that you can be regarded as a perfect person. ”

"That is to say! Your husband doesn't want to demand too much from others to be perfect. But! Step by step, start from the basics. Isn't it? ”

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen nodded in satisfaction.

Zi asked his uncle Wenzi Yu Gongming Jia and said: "Believe it, the master doesn't speak, doesn't laugh, doesn't take it?" Gongming Jia said: "The one who complains is also." The Master speaks from time to time, and people never tire of what they say. Laugh and laugh, people never get tired of laughing; Righteousness is then taken, and people are not tired of taking it. Zi said: "Naturally? How could it be? ”

"What do you mean?" Lege asked habitually.

Zeng Shen explained: "Mr. asked Gongming Jia to Uncle Wenzi: Is it true? Some people say that Uncle Wenzi doesn't speak, doesn't laugh, and doesn't covet money? Is he such a man? Gong Mingjia replied: This is the fault of the person who told you this. That's not the case, sir! It's not that I don't say it! But! He speaks only when he is supposed to speak, so that others are not averse to him talking; It's not that you don't laugh! He laughs when he is happy, so that others are not disgusted with him laughing; It is not that he does not covet money, but that he takes it only if he is in accordance with the requirements of propriety, so that others do not hate him to take it. The gentleman said, "I see, is it really so?" ”

"It's a little puzzling! Let's take a closer look! Le Ge said.

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said: "Gongming Jia: The surname is Gongming Jia, a patriot. ”

"Oh?"

"Uncle Wenzi: Doctor Weiguo Gongsun Ba, the son of Wei Xiangong, nicknamed Wen."

"Oh?"

By evaluating Uncle Fumiko, Mr. further explained the idea of "righteousness before taking". As long as it is in line with righteousness and courtesy, Uncle Wenzi does not say anything, does not laugh, and does not take money. Therefore! Mr. thinks: This is what a noble personality does. ”

"Oh?" Lege nodded.

Seriously! From this point on, Lege felt a little struggling to understand.

Zi said: "Zang Wuzhong is behind Yu Lu in case of begging, although he doesn't want you, I don't believe it." ”

"What do you mean?" Lege asked habitually.

Zeng Shen explained: "Mr. said: Zang Wuzhong fled from Lu because he offended the Mengsun clan, and later returned to Fangyi, and asked Lu Jun to leave Fangyi on the condition that he would be the doctor after the Zang clan. Although some people say that he is not trying to blackmail the monarch, I do not believe it. ”

"What do you mean?" Lege asked puzzled.

Zeng Shen further explained: "Mr. believes that Zang Wuzhong used his fiefdom as a base and wanted to blackmail the monarch, committed rebellion, and committed the great crime of disloyalty. ”

"Ahh Big problem! Lege replied exaggeratedly.

"Yes! Uncle Le! ”

"Read on!"

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen Dao. ”

Zi said: "Jin Wen is fair but not righteous, and Qi Huan is just but not righteous." ”

"What do you mean?" Lege asked.

Zeng Shen explained: "Mr. said: Jin Wengong is deceitful and not decent, and Qi Huan is just and not deceitful. ”

"This is an evaluation of the two of them, and the evaluation of Qi Huan Gong is very high!"

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.

"Jin Wengong: surnamed Ji and Chong'er, one of the famous overlords. Qi Huan Gong: surnamed Jiang Xiaobai, one of the famous overlords. After Jin Wengong became the hegemon, he summoned Zhou Tianzi in turn, instead of summoning courtiers from the world. What does this take Zhou Tianzi for? So! This is unacceptable to Confucius, so! Mr. said that Jin Wengong was treacherous. Duke Qi Huan claimed hegemony under the banner of 'respecting the king', and Mr. felt that his approach was in line with the rules of etiquette. Therefore, he made such an evaluation of Jin Wengong and Qi Huangong. ”
