Rebirth of the Top Dandy

The ceremony of shooting at the betrothal is the greatest ceremony. It is performed when the weather is bright, and the ceremony is completed when the day is almost up. It cannot be performed without a strong person. Therefore, a strong person will perform the rites. When the wine is clear, people will not dare to drink when they are thirsty; when the meat is dry, people will not dare to eat when they are hungry; when the day is not over, people will be solemn and upright, and will not dare to be lazy. To complete the rites, to correct the ruler and his subjects, to be close to fathers and sons, and to reconcile the old and the young. This is difficult for ordinary people, but gentlemen perform it, so it is called having rites; having rites is called having righteousness, and having righteousness is called courage. Therefore, what is valuable in courage is that it can establish righteousness; what is valuable in establishing righteousness is that it has rites; what is valuable in having rites is that it performs rites. Therefore, what is valuable in courage is that it dares to perform rites and righteousness. Therefore, a brave and strong person, when there is no trouble in the world, uses it in propriety and righteousness; when there is trouble in the world, uses it in victory. If used in victory, there will be no enemy; if used in propriety and righteousness, there will be order and harmony; no enemy outside, and order and harmony inside, this is called great virtue. Therefore, the sage king values ​​bravery and strength in this way. If bravery and strength are not used in propriety and righteousness to win, but used in fighting, it is called chaos. When punishment is carried out in the country, those who are punished are chaos. In this way, the people will be governed and the country will be safe.

Early Summer Promise

Bin Moujia sat in Confucius's service. Confucius talked with him about music and asked, "Why has Wu been prepared for so long?" He replied, "I am worried that I cannot get the crowd." "Why is it that it is chanting and lascivious?" He replied, "I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up with the task." "Why is it that it is early to start and work hard?" He replied, "It is timely." "Wu sat with his right side and his left side, why?" He replied, "It is not Wu sitting." "Why is it that the sound is lascivious and reaches Shang?" He replied, "It is not the music of Wu." Confucius said, "If it is not the music of Wu, what is it?" He replied, "The officials have lost the transmission. If the officials have not lost the transmission, then King Wu's ambition would have been in vain." Confucius He said, "Yes! What I heard from Chang Hong is also the same as what you said." Bin Moujia stood up, left his seat and asked, "King Wu has been preparing for a long time, so he must have heard the order. May I ask: why is it so late and so long?" The Master said, "Wait! I will tell you. Music is a symbol of success; the king Wu did it by pulling together the trunks and standing on a mountain; the Duke of Wu was determined to be vigorous and brave. The Zhou and Zhao dynasties ruled when King Wu was in power. Moreover, King Wu went north at first, destroyed Shang when he succeeded for the second time, and made the southern country his border when he succeeded for the third time. He made the southern country his border when he succeeded for the fourth time. He made the southern country his border when he succeeded for the fifth ... Divided and advanced, the matter was accomplished early, and it stood for a long time at the end, waiting for the arrival of the princes. Moreover, have you not heard the words of Muye? King Wu defeated Yin and revolted against Shang. Before he got off the carriage, he enfeoffed the descendants of Huangdi in Ji, the descendants of Emperor Yao in Zhu, and the descendants of Emperor Shun in Chen. He got off the carriage and enfeoffed the descendants of Xiahou in Qi, and the descendants of Yin in Song. He enfeoffed the tomb of Prince Bi Gan, released the prisoner of Jizi, and sent him to Shang to restore his position. The common people relaxed their government, and the common people doubled their salaries. After crossing the Yellow River to the west, the horses were scattered on the south side of Huashan Mountain, and they were no longer ridden; the cattle were scattered in the wilds of Taolin, and they were no longer dressed. The chariots and armor were stored in the treasury, and they were no longer used. The weapons were carried upside down and wrapped in tiger skins; the generals and the generals were used For the princes; named it Jian Lu. Then we know that King Wu will not use troops again. Disperse the army and shoot in the suburbs, shoot the raccoon head with the left, shoot the Zhuo Yu with the right, and shoot the rest of the leather. Wear the imperial crown and hold the hu, and the tiger soldiers will talk about the sword. Sacrifice in the Mingtang and the people will know filial piety. After the court, the princes will know how to be a minister, and after the farming, the princes will know how to be respectful. The five are the great teachings of the world. The three elders and five changes are fed in the university, the emperor strips bare and cuts the animals, holds the sauce and gives the food, holds the cup and drinks, and wears the crown and holds the wine, so as to teach the princes. If this is the case, the Zhou Dao will spread everywhere, and the rituals and music will communicate. Then the delay of "Wu" is not appropriate! "

Return of the King of War

Confucius got up early, put his hands behind his back and dragged his stick, and swayed at the door, singing, "Is Mount Tai collapsing? Is the beam breaking? Is the philosopher withering?" After singing, he went in and sat in front of the door. Zigong heard it and said, "If Mount Tai collapses, where can I look up? If the beam breaks and the philosopher withers, where can I go? Master, I am afraid you will be ill." Then he hurried in. The Master said, "Ci! Why are you so late? The Xia emperor was buried on the east steps, which was like being in the east; the Yin people buried between the two pillars, which meant that they were flanked by the host and the guest; the Zhou people buried on the west steps, which was like being the guest. And I am a Yin person. Last night, I dreamed that I was sitting and lying between the two pillars. If a wise king does not rise, who in the world can respect me? I am about to die." He died after seven days of illness.

Can't wait till the end of time

He Pingshu had a handsome appearance and a very fair face; Emperor Ming of Wei suspected that he was wearing too much powder. In the middle of summer, eat hot soup noodles. After eating, he broke out in a sweat and wiped himself with his red clothes, and his complexion became brighter.

The paranoid little ancestor of Master Fu is the wildest

The sage kings set up sacrifices: those who apply the law to the people are sacrificed; those who die in the service of the country are sacrificed; those who work hard to stabilize the country are sacrificed; those who can resist great disasters are sacrificed; those who can defend against great disasters are sacrificed. Therefore, when Lishan ruled the world, his son was called Nong, who was able to grow hundreds of grains; when Xia declined, Zhou Qi succeeded him, so he was sacrificed as Ji. When Gonggong ruled the nine states, his son was called Hou Tu, who was able to pacify the nine states, so he was sacrificed as She. Emperor Ku was able to arrange the stars to show the people; Yao was able to reward and equalize the law and end his life with justice; Shun worked hard at many things but died in the wild. Gun was killed by floods, and Yu was able to restore Gun's achievements. Huangdi rectified the names of all things to make it clear that the people share the wealth, and Zhuanxu was able to restore it. Qi was the Minister of Education and the people were prosperous; Ming worked hard in his office and died in a flood. Tang ruled the people with leniency and eliminated their cruelty; King Wen ruled with civility, and King Wu ruled with military merits to eliminate the people's disasters. These are all those who have made great contributions to the people. The sun, moon, and stars are what the people look up to; the mountains, forests, rivers, valleys, and hills are what the people use as materials. They are not of this clan and are not included in the sacrificial rites.
