Looking from afar

When Huan Xuan was about to usurp the throne, Huan Xiu wanted to succeed him because Xuan had the permission of his mother. Madam Yu said, "You are close, and you have more years than I do. I have taken care of him, and I cannot bear to see him do such a thing."

Serpentine

Guan Ning and Hua Xin were weeding in the garden together when they saw a piece of gold on the ground. Guan swung his hoe and it looked like a piece of tile or stone, but Hua picked it up and threw it away. They once sat together reading, and someone passed by in a carriage and official robes. Ning continued reading as usual, but Xin put down his book and went out to look. Ning cut the mat and sat on the other side, saying, "You are not my friend."

The Great City Era

The sleeves should be round to correspond to the rule; the curved skirt should be like a square to correspond to the square; the rope should be carried to the ankle to correspond to the straightness; the lower part should be even like a scale to correspond to the balance. Therefore, the rule is to raise the hand for tolerance; the rope is carried to hold the square to straighten the politics and square the righteousness. Therefore, the Book of Changes says: Kun, "The movement of six two is straight and square." The lower part should be even like a scale to calm the mind and calm the heart. The five methods have been applied, so the sages follow them. Therefore, the rule is taken for its impartiality, the rope is taken for its straightness, and the scale is taken for its balance, so the ancient kings valued them. Therefore, he can be a civil servant, a military officer, a prime minister, or a military commander. He is perfect and not wasteful, which is the next best thing in clothing.

The Marriage of the Powerful

Xi Sikong was in the Northern Palace, and Huan Xuanwu disliked him for holding military power. Xi was always in the dark about the situation, so he sent a letter to Huan: "I want to help the royal family and repair the gardens and tombs." The crown prince Jiabin was on a journey. When he heard the letter on the road, he hurriedly took the letter, read it, and found it was torn into pieces, so he returned. He also wrote a letter, explaining that he was old and sick, and could not bear the idleness of others, so he wanted to ask for some vacant land to support himself. Xuanwu was overjoyed when he received the letter, and immediately ordered the transfer of the Duke to supervise five counties and be the prefect of Kuaiji.

Rebirth of a happy space

The ancient scholars: compare the ugly things. The drum does not match the five sounds, and the five sounds cannot be in harmony. The water does not match the five colors, and the five colors cannot be out of order. Learning does not match the five senses. The five senses cannot be unmanaged. The teacher does not match the five clothes, and the five clothes cannot be unrelated.
