Extraordinary Treasure Appraiser

Youzi asked Zengzi: "Have you asked about funerals, Master?" He said: "I have heard that funerals want to get poor quickly, and death wants to decay quickly." Youzi said: "This is not what a gentleman says." Zengzi said: "Shen heard it from the Master." Youzi said again: "This is not what a gentleman says." Zengzi said: "Shen and Ziyou heard it." Youzi said: "Yes, then the Master said it for a reason." Zengzi told Ziyou this. Ziyou said, "How wonderful! Youzi's words are similar to yours. Once upon a time, when the Master was living in Song, he saw Sima Huan making a stone coffin for himself, which took three years to complete. The Master said, 'If it is so, then it is better to decay quickly than to die.' The desire to decay quickly was what Sima Huan said. When Nangong Jingshu returned, he would bring treasures with him to the court. The Master said, 'If it is so, then it is better to become poor quickly than to be buried.' The desire to become poor quickly was what Jingshu said." Zengzi told him what Ziyou said. When Youzi was talking to Youzi, Youzi said, "Yes, I have always said that this is not what the Master said." Zengzi said, "How do you know this?" Youzi said, "The Master made a four-inch coffin and a five-inch outer coffin in Zhongdu, so he knew that he did not want to decay quickly. In the past, when the Master lost the position of Sikou of Lu and was about to go to Jing, he first asked Zixia and then Ran You, so he knew that he did not want to become poor quickly."

Back in time, a touch of emotion

Honey, you're still here

When the emperor is about to leave, he should be like the God of Heaven, and he should go to the altar and make a sacrifice to the gods. When the princes are about to leave, they should go to the altar and make a sacrifice to the gods. When the emperor has nothing to do, he meets with the princes and calls it court. He examines the rites, corrects the punishments, and makes them respectful to the emperor. When the emperor gives music to the princes, he uses the cymbals to lead them. When he gives music to the dukes, the zithers, and the men, he uses the gongs to lead them. The princes are given bows and arrows before they go to war, and are given halberds before they kill. They are given jade tablets and jade jars before they make chang. If they are not given jade tablets and jade jars, they should provide chang to the emperor.

"There are three levels of ruling the world, and there are few mistakes! The superior ones, although good, have no evidence, and without evidence, they are not trusted, and without trust, the people will not follow; the inferior ones, although good, are not respected, and without respect, they are not trusted, and without trust, the people will not follow. Therefore, the way of a gentleman: to base it on oneself, to test the common people, to examine the three kings without error, to establish it in heaven and earth without contradiction, to question the ghosts and gods without doubt, and to wait for the saints for a hundred generations. And not confused. To question ghosts and gods without doubt is to know heaven; to wait for a sage for hundreds of generations without doubt is to know people. Therefore, a gentleman acts as the way of the world, acts as the law of the world, and speaks as the rule of the world. If you are far away, you will have hope; if you are close, you will not be tired. The Book of Songs says: "There is no harm there, and there is no shooting here. I hope I can work hard day and night to achieve eternal praise!" There is no gentleman who does not do this, and he will be praised by the world early. "
