The Invincible Summoning of the Qin Dynasty

In this month, farmers harvested the crops. The emperor tasted the new crops and first offered them to the temple. He ordered all officials to collect the crops. The dikes were completed and the dams were carefully blocked to prepare for floods. The palaces were repaired, the walls were broken, and the city walls were repaired. In this month, no princes were appointed or high officials were established. Do not cede land, send ambassadors, or pay large amounts of money. If the winter order is carried out in the first month of autumn, the yin energy will prevail, insects will destroy the crops, and the army will come. If the spring order is carried out, the country will suffer from drought, the yang energy will return, and the five grains will not bear fruit. If the summer order is carried out, the country will have many fires, cold and heat will be unregulated, and the people will suffer from malaria.

A fate in the prosperous times, the paranoid president begs for mercy

May all go well with you

The Son of Heaven is equal to Heaven and Earth. Therefore, virtue matches heaven and earth, and benefits all things. It is as bright as the sun and the moon, illuminating the four seas without leaving out the small. In the court, the order of benevolence, holiness, propriety and righteousness is followed; in banquets, the music of Ya and Song is listened to; when walking, there is the sound of rings and pendants; when riding in a car, there is the sound of phoenixes and harmonious birds. There is propriety in residence, and there is moderation in advance and retreat. All officials are in their proper place, and all things are in their proper order. The Book of Songs says: "A virtuous man and a gentleman, his etiquette is not wrong. If his etiquette is not wrong, it will be the right way for the four countries." This is what it means. When the people are pleased with orders and decrees, it is called harmony; when the upper and lower are close to each other, it is called benevolence; when the people get what they want without asking for it, it is called trust; and when the harm of heaven and earth is removed, it is called righteousness. Righteousness and trustworthiness, harmony and benevolence are the tools of a hegemon. If there is the intention to govern the people but there is no tool, it will not work.

Double Beauty

After General Wang died, Wang Ying wanted to join the worldly Confucian scholars, who were in charge of Jiangzhou. Wang Han wanted to surrender to Wang Shu, who was in charge of Jingzhou. Han said to Ying, "What is the relationship between the general and Jiangzhou? And you want to return there?" Ying said, "That's why I should go. When the people of Jiangzhou were strong, they were able to resist the opposition, which is not what ordinary people do. But when they see the decline and danger, they will surely be moved. How can Wen, the governor of Jingzhou, act according to your will?" Han refused, and they all surrendered to Shu. Shu Guosan and his son were drowned in the river. When Bin heard that he should come, he secretly prepared a boat to wait for him. But in fact he could not come, and he was deeply angry.

The Proud Queen

When Prime Minister Wang crossed the river, he said that he had often talked about Taoism with Pei Chenggong, Ruan Qianli and other wise men by the Luo River. Yang Man said, "I have promised you this a long time ago, why do you need it again?" The king said, "I didn't say I needed it, I just wanted it and it was not available at that time!"
