Purple Sun Sword Emperor

Chen Ganxi was ill and entrusted his brothers to his brothers, and ordered his son Zunyi to say, "If I die, you must make a big coffin for me, and let my two maids hold me." When Chen Ganxi died, his son said, "It is not proper to bury him alive with the dead, let alone share the same coffin." He was not killed.

Live up to your youth

Wei Boyu was the Minister of the Chancellery. He saw Le Guang talking with famous scholars in the imperial court. He was surprised and said, "Since the death of these scholars, I have always been afraid that their opinions would be lost. Now I hear such opinions from you again!" He ordered his sons and daughters to find him and said, "This man is a mirror among people. Seeing him is like seeing the blue sky through the clouds and mist."

Looking from afar

In this month, he orders the water hunters and fishermen to collect taxes from springs, ponds and lakes. No one dares to encroach on the people, thinking that the emperor is causing resentment among the people. If there is such a person, he will be punished without pardon. If the spring order is carried out in the first month of winter, the frost will not be tight, the earth's air will leak upward, and many people will flee. If the summer order is carried out, there will be many storms in the country, the winter will not be cold, and hibernating insects will come out again. If the autumn order is carried out, snow and frost will not fall at the right time, small soldiers will rise from time to time, and the land will be encroached.

The General's Wife Should Not Be Deceived

Therefore, the rite of audience is to clarify the righteousness between the monarch and the ministers. The rite of marriage is to make the princes respect each other. The rite of funeral and sacrifice is to clarify the grace of the ministers. The rite of drinking in the village is to clarify the order of the elders and the young. The rite of marriage is to clarify the difference between men and women. Rites are the source of restraint and chaos, just like the source of water in the village. Therefore, those who destroy the old temple because they think it is useless will surely be destroyed by water; those who destroy the old ritual because they think it is useless will surely be destroyed by water.

Sacrifice is a great thing, and it is a preparation for everything. Is it the root of education to follow the preparation? Therefore, the teaching of a gentleman is to teach people to respect their rulers and elders externally and to be filial to their parents internally. Therefore, when a wise ruler is above, all ministers obey; when the ancestral temples and the altar of the country are respected, the descendants are obedient and filial. Do your best and be upright in your righteousness, and the teaching will come into being. Therefore, when a gentleman serves his ruler, he must practice it himself. What he does not like in his superiors, he will not use his subordinates; what he hates in his subordinates, he will not serve his superiors; if he does not do it to others, he will do it to himself, which is not the way of teaching. Therefore, the teaching of a gentleman must start from its root and follow the ultimate, and sacrifice is it? Therefore, it is said: sacrifice is the root of education. There are ten relationships in sacrifice: the way to serve ghosts and gods, the righteousness between the ruler and the minister, the relationship between father and son, the distinction between the noble and the humble, the killing of relatives and strangers, the bestowal of titles and rewards, the difference between husband and wife, the balance of political affairs, the order of the old and the young, and the relationship between superiors and subordinates. These are the ten relationships.
