Report to the Imperial Master: Madam is going to rebel again

The Master said: "What is etiquette? It is the management of affairs. The gentleman has his affairs, and he must manage them. To govern the country without etiquette is like a blind man without friends. What can the entourage do? It is like someone who seeks in a dark room all night, how can he see without a candle? If there is no etiquette, then the hands and feet will not be able to move, the ears and eyes will not be able to add, and the advance and retreat, bowing and yielding will not be controlled. Therefore, if it is used in the residence, the elder and the younger will lose their distinction; the boudoir and the three clans will lose their harmony; the court and the official titles will lose their order; hunting and military affairs will lose their strategies; the army and military achievements will lose their rules; the palace will lose its measure; the tripod will lose its image; the food will lose its time; the music will lose its mode; the car will lose its style; the ghosts and gods will lose their feast; the funeral will lose its sorrow; the debate will lose its party; the official will lose its form; the government affairs will lose its implementation; it will be imposed on the body and mishandled in front, and all the actions of the crowd will lose their appropriateness. In this way, there is no way to reconcile with the crowd. ”

When Dai Yuan was young, he was a knight-errant who did not discipline himself and often attacked and robbed merchants between the Yangtze River and the Huai River.

Although he was in a humble position, his spirit was still extraordinary. Ji said to him from afar on the boat, "You are so talented, but you still want to cause trouble?" Yuan burst into tears, threw his sword back to Ji, and spoke harshly to him. Ji valued him more and made him his friend, and wrote a letter to recommend him. After crossing the river, he was promoted to General Zhengxi.

Invincible Demon Cultivator

It is said that to govern a country, you must first manage your family. There is no one who cannot teach his family but can teach others. Therefore, a gentleman does not leave home but teaches the country. Filial piety is the way to serve the king; respect for elders is the way to serve the elders; kindness is the way to lead the people. "Kang Gao" said: "It is like protecting a baby. "If you seek it with a sincere heart, even if you don't get it, you won't be far away. There has never been anyone who learned to raise a child before getting married. If one family is benevolent, the whole country will be benevolent; if one family is courteous, the whole country will be courteous; if one person is greedy and violent, the whole country will be in chaos. The mechanism is like this. This is what is meant by one word ruining things, and one person establishing a country. Yao and Shun led the world with benevolence, and the people followed them. Jie and Zhou led the world with violence, and the people followed them. What they ordered was contrary to what the people liked, and the people did not follow them. Therefore, a gentleman should have it in himself before seeking it in others, and not have it in himself before criticizing others. There has never been anyone who can persuade others with what he does not forgive. Therefore, governing a country starts with managing his family. The Book of Songs says, "The peach tree is young and tender, and its leaves are dense. The daughter is married, and she is a good wife." Only when she is a good wife can she teach the people of the country. The Book of Songs says, "Be a good brother and a good younger brother." Only when she is a good brother and a good younger brother can she teach the people of the country. The Book of Songs says, "Its etiquette is not wrong, and it is right for the four countries. ” He who is a father, son, and brother is a model, and then the people can follow it. This is what is meant by governing a country in order to regulate the family.

The daughter in power

When entering the dance, the king holds the dry and the halberd and takes the dance position. The king is on the east side, wearing a crown and holding the dry, and leads his ministers to enjoy the emperor's corpse. Therefore, when the emperor sacrifices, he enjoys it with the world; when the princes sacrifice, he enjoys it with the whole country. The emperor wore a crown and held the pillars of heaven, and led his ministers to entertain the emperor's corpse. This is the meaning of the inner music. There are three levels of sacrifice: among the offerings, nothing is more important than being naked, nothing is more important than singing, and nothing is more important than "Wu Su Ye". This is the way of Zhou. All three ways are used to borrow from the outside to increase the ambition of the gentleman, so they advance and retreat with the ambition; if the ambition is light, it is also light, and if the ambition is heavy, it is also heavy. If one's ambition is light and seeks external weight, even a sage cannot obtain it. Therefore, when a gentleman offers sacrifice, he must sacrifice himself, so as to make it clear that it is heavy. He should follow the etiquette, worship the three levels, and offer it to the emperor's corpse. This is the way of the sage. There is a 馂 in sacrifice; 馂 is the end of the sacrifice, which must be known. Therefore, the ancients said: "A good end is like the beginning." 馂 is just that. Therefore, the ancient gentlemen said: "The corpse is also the remnant of the ghosts and gods, and it is a benevolent method, which can be used to observe politics." Therefore, when the corpse is made, the king and the ministers are made to make it. When the king stands up, the senior officials are made to make it. The ministers are made to make it. The remnants of the king. The senior officials are made to make it. Eight scholars are made to make it. The lower officials are made to make it. The remnants of the nobles. The scholars are made to stand up, each holding their own utensils and go out, and they are laid out under the hall. The officials come in and clear them, and the lower officials are made to make it. The lower officials are made to make it. The way of making it is to change the number of people, so as to distinguish the noble and the humble, and to promote the image of benevolence. Therefore, four 簋黋 of millet are used to show that it is being cultivated in the temple. The temple is a symbol of the inner court. The sacrifice is the greatest benefit. Therefore, if there is a great benefit in the upper part, the benefit will surely reach the lower part, but the upper part will be the first and the lower part will be the last. It is not that the upper part is overburdened and the lower part is cold and hungry. Therefore, if there is a great marsh above, the people will wait for it below, knowing that the benefit will surely come, and they can see it from the taro. Therefore, it is said: "You can observe the politics."
