Chapter 954: Zeng Zi on How to Be Respected
"Interpret? The sentence just now said Min Ziqian's sentence. ”
"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said: "Mr. said: Min Ziqian is really filial!" People did not think that the words of his parents and brothers praising him were false, but believed that what they said was the truth and the truth! ”
"What do you mean?"
Zeng Shen further explained: "Min Ziqian's parents, brothers and others all said things like how Min Ziqian was filial, and outsiders thought it was true when they heard it, and they all thought that his parents and brothers were not lying and did not deliberately brag. ”
"Oh? That's what it means! This sentence sounds tongue-twisting! ”
"Yes! Uncle Le! That's how the written word has to be written. Only in this way can it be concise and to the point. Zeng Shen explained.
"Hmmm! Good! Read on! ”
"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.
Nanrong Sanfu Baigui, Confucius was the son and wife of his brother.
"What do you mean?" Lege asked.
Zeng Shen explained: "Nanrong repeatedly recited the verses of the "Book of Songs, Daya, and Suppression": 'The defilement of Bai Gui can still be grinded; If you don't say anything, you can't do it'. The meaning of this verse is that the stain on the white jade can still be rubbed off, and if there is something wrong with our speech, it will be irreparable. When Mr. heard this, he thought that Nanrong understood 'Shen Yan', so he married his niece to him. ”
Nanrong: That is, Nangong Shi, the name Tao, the word Zirong, also known as Nangong Kuo, Nanrong.
"What do you mean?" Lege asked again.
Zeng Shen explained: "It means: there is nothing wrong with listening to Mr. As long as we all believe in Mr. 's words and practice life, our life will have a good result! And also! Human society will be better! ”
"Oh?"
Zeng Shen explained: "Nan Rong is also a student of Mr. ”
"Hmmm! Got it! Lege nodded. Then he said: "You say it is Nangong for a while, and Nanrong for a while, is it easy for people to misunderstand and think that it is still two people!" The same is true for Zilu: for a while, for a while, for a while, for a while, it will become Ji Lu. You? Isn't it? ”
Zeng Shen hurriedly explained: "Uncle Le! That's it! These contents are provided by the seniors. The seniors call them differently. So! Their names have changed. In order to prove who provided the information, so! I haven't changed the title! ”
"Oh? So that's what happened! Only then did Le Ge realize: why are the names of people in the Analects called differently in different chapters? Originally! It is recorded in the voice of the provider.
"Read on!"
"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.
Ji Kangzi asked, "Which disciple is studious?" Confucius said: "Those who have a good face are studious, but unfortunately they die in a short life, and now they will die." ”
"What do you mean? Why did it get to Ji Kangzi's head again? Lege asked puzzled.
Zeng Shen explained: "Ji Kangzi asked Mr. : Who among your students is studious? The gentleman replied, "One of my students is named Yan Hui, and he is the best learner." He also had these qualities: he never got angry with others, and he never made the same mistakes. It's a pity that he was short-lived and died. Now, there is no one like him among my students, and no one is studious. ”
"What do you mean? Did you mention Yan Hui again? Why is this paragraph arranged here? Lege asked puzzled.
Zeng Shen hurriedly explained: "The need for writing! Uncle Le! This is just a foreshadowing of the beginning, and there will be follow-up content later! ”51
"That's good! Read on. I'm going to see what you're trying to do! What's next? What does it mean? ”
"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.
Yan Yuan died, and Yan Lu asked his son's car to take it as a coffin. Zi said: "If you are not talented, you will also say your son." The carp also died, and there was a coffin but no coffin. I will not do it in vain. After I have been a doctor, I shall not walk in vain. ”
"What do you mean?"
Zeng Shen explained: "Yan Hui died, and his father Yan Lu begged Mr. to sell the car and buy Yan Hui a coffin. Mr. said: Although Yan Hui and Li, one is talented and the other is not, one is your son and the other is my son, but they are both sons. When my son Kong Carp died, there was also a coffin. I didn't even sell my car to buy him a coffin. Because! The car is a necessary means of transportation, and I have to travel behind the doctor's car, so I can't walk. ”
"Oh?" Le Ge nodded and said, "I've heard about this!" Your husband loves face. Alas! ”
"And that's not all! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen argued: "The gentleman thinks that his identity requires a carriage, and he sometimes has to travel with the doctor." The doctor has a vehicle, so he can't follow the doctor's vehicle on foot, right? If so! That would be against the rules of propriety. Isn't it? So! He had to have his own carriage. So! His carriage cannot be sold! ”
"Oh?" Lege nodded again.
Zeng Jian Lege still didn't fully understand, so he had to explain further: "I arranged these contents here, and it is also useful, not just literally. ”
"Oh? I want to hear about it! Le Ge stretched out his hand and gestured and said.
Zeng Shen explained: "Uncle Le! This is the meaning: on the surface, it is about Yan Hui, but it actually has a hint and metaphor! ”
"Oh?"
"Meaning! Only if you have the talent to learn, can you get the respect of others! That's what it means! ”
"Oh?"
Zeng Shen further explained: "As long as we all believe in Mr. 's words and practice life, our life will have a good result!" And also! Human society will be better! As long as we all believe in Mr. 's words, we will be respected by others in our lives. Uncle Le! That's what I mean by metaphor! ”
"Oh?" Le Ge responded: "If you don't explain it clearly, don't put it bluntly, I'm afraid many people won't understand the meaning, right?" ”
"Maybe! Uncle Le! But that's the way the written word is? In order to save some words, the only way to do it is to be concise. Otherwise! A roll of bamboo slips can only burn so many words, how can you burn too much nonsense? "Zengsando.
"Oh? Read on! ”
"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.
Yan Yuan died, and Zi said: "Wow! Heaven forbid! Heaven forbid! ”
"Interpret it!" Le Ge said.
"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen explained: "Yan Yuan is dead, and Mr. said: Alas! God wants my life! God wants my life! ”
"Yes! It's God who wants your husband's life! Your husband is counting on Yan Hui to inherit his doctrines and thoughts, and to spread and pass on his doctrines and thoughts. Outcome! Yan Hui died early! Alas! It's really 'heaven forbidden'! ”
Yan Yuan died, and the son cried and mourned. The servant said: "The son mourns." He said, "Is there a sorrow?" Who is not the lady to mourn? ”
Zeng Shen explained: "Yan Hui died, and Mr. cried extremely sadly. Those who follow Mr. say: You are grieving excessively! The gentleman said: Is it too sad? If I don't grieve for this man, who am I grieved for? ”
