Flowery Days

When he first crossed the river, he was paid homage to the official, and the carriage was decorated and provided with food. Yang Man was appointed the prefect of Danyang, and all guests who came early were treated well. As the day goes by, the meal is gradually exhausted and no longer effective. It depends on the guest’s time, regardless of their status. Yang Gu bowed to Linhai and was served delicious food all day long. Although we arrived late, we were still treated to a sumptuous meal. The contemporary opinion is that Gu's splendor is not as good as Man's sincerity.

Leaving the Immortal

Diseases, both inside and outside are swept. The king and the officials clean the county, and the scholars put away the zither. Sleeping in the east under the north window. Abandon the bed. Take off the undergarments, put on new clothes, and dress one person. Men and women change clothes. Put on the cotton wool and wait for the body to die. Men do not die at the hands of women, and women do not die at the hands of men. If the wife of a lord dies in the road bedroom, the wife of a senior official dies in the bedroom, and if the wife of a concubine does not order, she dies in the lower room. Move the body to the bedroom, and the wives of scholars all die in the bedroom.

Marrying for favor

Extreme perspective

The Master said, “If there is a car, you must see its rails; if there is a garment, you must see its wear; if someone talks about it, you must hear its sound; if someone walks about it, you must see its completion. The Ge Tan says, ‘If you wear it, you must shoot it.’” The Master said, “If you follow what you say, then your words cannot be embellished; if you follow what you say, then your actions cannot be embellished. Therefore, a gentleman speaks little, but walks to establish his credibility, so that the people cannot exaggerate his virtues and minimize his faults. The Book of Songs says, ‘The stain on the jade tablet can still be polished; the stain on this speech cannot be made.’ The Xiaoya says, ‘The gentleman is sincere, and the development is great.’ The Jun Shi says, ‘In the past, when the God of Heaven was in power, Zhou Tian observed the virtue of King Wen, and he gathered the great destiny in his body.’” The Master said, “The southerners have a saying, ‘If a man is not constant, he cannot be used for divination.’ Is this the saying left by the ancients? Even the tortoise shells cannot tell, let alone people? The Book of Songs says: ‘My tortoise is tired, but I still don’t tell it.’ The Book of Changes says: ‘The title is not equal to the bad virtue. The people stand up and do the right things. They are pure and offer sacrifices. This is disrespectful; things are complicated and chaotic, and serving the gods is difficult.’ The Book of Changes says: ‘If you don’t keep your virtue, you may suffer shame. If you keep your virtue, it will be auspicious for women and bad for men.’”

Rebirth Chu Ting

Generally speaking, everything born between heaven and earth is called fate. All things that die are called broken; people who die are called ghosts; this is what has not changed in the Five Dynasties. The reason why the Seven Dynasties have changed is to worship the gods, suburbs, ancestors, and ancestors; the rest remain unchanged.

Husband's lies

Fan Yuzhang said to Wang Jingzhou: "You are a man of great talent and vision, a real talent of the future." Wang said: "Without such an uncle, how could I have such a nephew?"
