Chapter 994 interprets the Ji chapter

Wei Ling's official chapter was done like this, and there was no replay. The approximate meaning is: everything revolves around Wei Linggong. Or rather! It's all about Confucius's departure from Wei Linggong.

Le Ge and Zeng Shen rested for a while, and then began to correct the next article. The next article of "Wei Linggong" is "Ji's Chapter". Of course! Ji's chapter is also named after the previous word 'Ji's'.

Zeng Shen picked up the bamboo slip and looked at it and put it down, and then looked at Uncle Legole.

Le Ge nodded at Zeng Shen and asked, "What's next?" ”

"Back to Uncle Le's words! According to Uncle Le, this article should be called the 'Ji Chapter'. Zeng Shen said.

"Ji's chapter?"

"Ji's chapter! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen nodded in response.

"What content has been arranged in Ji's chapter?" Lege asked.

Zeng Shen replied: "Ji's chapter and Wei Linggong's chapter are inherited in the same line, and they both have the same penmanship. Uncle Le! Start with Ji's, and then revolve around Ji's related content! ”

"So? What is it? Lege asked.

Zeng Shen hesitated for a moment and replied, "Let's read on!" Uncle Le! It's not about you, it's about not wanting to mislead you! That's the only way! Uncle Le's can guide me correctly! ”

"Hmmm! Good! Le Ge smiled and nodded.

"Thank you! Thank you Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.

The Ji clan will be cut away. Ran You and Ji Lu saw Confucius and said: "The Ji family will have something to do." ”

Confucius said, "Ask! Is there no Nell who has been with it? The husband is gone, and the former king thought that he was the lord of Dongmeng, and he was in the city-state, and he was the minister of the society. Why? ”

Ran You said: "The master wants it, but neither of my two ministers wants it." ”

Confucius said, "Ask! Zhou Ren said: 'Chen Li is listed, and those who can't stop.' 'If you don't hold on to the danger, and you don't help it, will you use the other? And it's an exaggeration, the tiger is out of the sheng, and the turtle jade is destroyed in the coffin, whose fault is it? ”

Ran You said: "Today's husband is gone, solid and close to the fee." If you don't take it now, the future generations will be worried about your descendants. ”

Confucius said, "Ask! The gentleman and the husband will give up what they want and will do it. Qiu also heard that those who have a country and a family do not suffer from widowhood but inequality, and do not suffer from poverty but suffer from anxiety. There is no poverty, no widowhood, and no inclination. If the husband is like this, so people from afar are not satisfied, and they will repair Wende. If it comes, it will be safe. Now by and begging, the husband and son, the distant people are not satisfied and cannot come, and the state is divided and cannot be kept; And the plot is in the state. I am afraid that Ji Sun's worries are not in the moment, but within the Xiao wall. ”

"It's too long! Too long! Lege interrupted.

"Uncle Le!"

"Interpret it! I don't have a good memory! It's too long to remember! Lege demanded.

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said. Then he explained: "The Ji clan is going to crusade against the vassal state of the Lu State. Ran You and Zilu went to see Mr. and said: The Ji clan is about to attack Liyan. ”

"Oh?" Le Ge asked: "Ran You and Zilu should be both officials and retainers at this time, right?" ”

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.

"Go on!" Lege stretched out his hand and gestured.

Zeng Shen continued to interpret: "Mr. said, "Ran Qiu, isn't this your fault? In the past, Zhou Tianzi asked it to preside over the sacrifice of Dongmeng, and it was already within the territory of the Lu State, and it was a vassal of the country! Why crusade against it? ”

"Your sir objected! Right! ”

"Yes! Uncle Le! ”

"Go on!"

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen continued to interpret: "Ran You said: Dr. Jisun wants to attack, but neither of us is willing. ”

"Can the two of them influence Ji's decision?" Le Ge said.

"Yes! Uncle Le! ”

"Go on!"

Zeng Shen continued to interpret: "Mr. said: Ran Qiu, Zhou Ren has a saying: 'Do your best to bear your position, and if you can't do it well, you will resign.'" 'If you don't help when you're in danger, and don't help you when you fall, then what's the point of using you, the courtiers who assist?' And what you said is wrong. Whose fault is it that the tiger and rhinoceros escaped from the cage, and the tortoise shell and jade artifacts were destroyed in the box? Isn't this the fault of the caretaker in charge? ”

"Your husband is complaining?" Le Ge said.

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.

"Complaining about their use? Didn't you, sir, ever be an official? Don't know the difficulties of being a courtier? ”

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen replied again.

颛臾: pronounced zhuānyú, a vassal state of the state of Lu, in the west of present-day Fei County, Shandong Province.

Dongmeng Lord: Dongmeng, Mengshan. The Lord, the one who presides over the sacrifice.

Zhou Ren: Name, historian of the Zhou Dynasty.

"Go on! How does Ran You or Zilu explain? Lege asked.

Zeng Shen explained: "Ran You said: The current departure has long been our subordinate territory, and it is also very close to Feiyi. If we don't take it over now, it will definitely become a trouble for our children and grandchildren in the future, and war is only a matter of time. ”

"What do you mean? War cannot be avoided? ”

"Yes! Uncle Le! Zeng Shen said.

"Go on! What did your husband say? ”

Zeng Shen continued: "Mr. said: Ran Qiu, the gentleman hates the practice of refusing to tell the truth that he wants to do that, and he must find a reason to defend it. I have heard that for princes and doctors, they are not afraid of a small population, but of unevenness. not afraid of poverty, but of instability; Since wealth is equalized, there is no such thing as poverty; If everyone is in harmony, you will not feel that there are few people; When it is settled, there is no danger of overturning.

Because of this, so! But if those who are far away are not submitted, they are invited with kindness, righteousness, courtesy, and pleasure. It's already here, let them live in peace. Now, Zhong You and Ran beg the two of you to assist the Ji Clan, and those from afar will not submit to them, and they will not be able to recruit them; The people in the country are scattered, and instead of preserving them, you are planning to use force in the country. I'm only afraid that Ji Sun's troubles are not in the moment, but within himself! ”

"What do you mean, sir? I didn't understand! He was complaining that Ran Youhe Zilu did not do his job well and was not a qualified courtier. For this matter, the two of them are responsible for this! Le Ge said.

Zeng Shen replied: "Sir does not advocate solving international and domestic problems by military means, but hopes to solve them by means of courtesy, righteousness, benevolence, and happiness. ”

"Does it work?" Lege asked.

"This?" Zeng Shen paused and explained, "Sir thinks it will work!" ”

"What your husband proposed: Those who have a country and a family do not suffer from widowhood but inequality, and do not suffer from poverty but suffer from insecurity. There are also merits! Lege nodded.

"Thank you! Thank you Uncle Le! Zeng Shen immediately thanked.

"What your husband means: Ran You and Zilu have already acquiesced to Ji's approach. Come and ask your sir, it's just a formality. Your husband saw it, so he blamed them. Le Ge said.

"Yes! Uncle Le! "I have responded to the Dao." But! And that's not all! Uncle Le! This 'Ji's Chapter' is the same as the previous 'Wei Ling Gong Chapter', the beginning is just an introduction! Uncle Le! ”
