Gentle and gentle

Kong Pushe was the attendant of Emperor Xiaowu, and was invited to visit Emperor Liezong's tomb in advance. Kong was the Minister of Rites at the time. He was thin and frail, and wore heavy mourning clothes. He cried all day long, and those who saw him thought he was a truly filial son.

The King of Purgatory City Arrives

The king will not kill cattle without reason, the officials will not kill sheep without reason, and the scholars will not kill dogs or pigs without reason. A gentleman stays away from the kitchen, and does not step on anything that has blood and flesh. If it does not rain in August, the king will not rise. If the year is not auspicious, the king will wear cloth and fold his head, and will not rent the gates and bridges. The mountains and lakes will be built but no taxes will be levied. If there is no land construction, the officials will not build carriages and horses. The soothsayer determines the tortoise shell, the historian determines the inkstone, and the king determines the body. The king's chariot is made of lamb and tiger; the officials' chariots are made of deer and leopard; the court chariots are made of deer and leopard. The gentleman always lives in front of the door and sleeps in the east. If there is a strong wind, thunder and heavy rain, he must change his residence, even at night, he must rise, dress and sit. Wash his hands five times a day, bathe with millet and wash his head with sorghum, comb his hair with a cypress comb, and comb his hair with an ivory comb. He offers food and food, and then the workers start to sing. When bathing, use two towels, the upper one is gauze and the lower one is silk. Take out the scoop, step on the Kuai mat, use the soup, step on the cattail mat, wear cloth to light the body, and then drink. When going to the official office, stay overnight and take precautions, sleep outside, bathe, the historian presents the ivory tablet, writes and thinks about the order; after dressing, practice the appearance and observe the jade sound, then go out, bow to the private court, and shine, and get on the car. The emperor is upright, which is upright in the world. The princes are bent in front and straight in the back, giving way to the emperor. The officials are bent in front and back, giving way to everything.

People at that time said of Ruan Sikuang: "He is not as strong as Youjun in spirit, not as elegant as Zhenchang, not as graceful as Zhongzu, not as thoughtful as Yuanyuan, but he has the beauty of all of them."

The Strongest Son-in-Law on Earth

Wrongly offended the philandering chief

The meaning of the crown: The crown is made of black cloth. In ancient times, the cloth was black, and the Qi people wore it. As for its tassel, Confucius said: "I have never heard of it. It is better to wear it in a worn-out state." The son wears the crown on the east side to show his generation. The offering in the guest position is to add to the success. The three additions are more respected, which means his aspirations. The crown and the name are to respect the name. The appearance of the crown is the way of Zhou. The Zhangfu is the way of Yin. No pursuit is the way of the Xiahou clan. Zhou Bian, Yin Bian, Xia Shou. The three kings shared the leather cap and white pile. There is no ceremony for the crown of the senior officials, but there is a ceremony for their wedding. In ancient times, people were promoted to the rank of nobility after the age of fifty, so why did the crown ceremony of the senior officials exist? The crown ceremony of the princes was not invented until the end of the Xia Dynasty. The first son of the emperor is a scholar. There is no one in the world who is noble at birth. To establish the princes in succession is to show the virtue. To give people official titles is to kill virtue. To give posthumous titles after death is the present; in ancient times, there was no title when alive and no posthumous title when dead. What is respected in ritual is to respect its meaning. If it loses its meaning, it is the job of the historian to explain its number. Therefore, the number can be explained, but its meaning is difficult to know. Knowing its meaning and respecting it is the way for the emperor to rule the world.
