I came from chaos

Duke Huan saw Xie Anshi's posthumous title written in a simple text. After reading it, he threw it to the guests sitting there and said, "This is Anshi's broken gold."

The perfect son-in-law

Xun Ciming met Yuan Lang of Runan and asked about the people of Yingchuan. Ciming mentioned his brothers first. Lang laughed and said, "Can a scholar be selected only because of his kinship?" Ciming said, "You are questioning me, what scripture are you basing your opinion on?" Lang said, "I was just asking about the country's scholars, but you mentioned my brothers, so I blame them." Ciming said, "In the past, Qi Xi recommended people from within the country without missing their sons, and recommended people from outside the country without missing their enemies, which was considered to be very fair. The poem of King Wen of Gongdan did not discuss the virtues of Yao and Shun, but praised Wen and Wu, which is the meaning of loving one's relatives. The meaning of the Spring and Autumn Annals is to include one's country within and exclude other countries. Moreover, if one does not love one's relatives but loves others, is it not against virtue?"

Fallen in Paradise

After Wang Dun got down from the boat, he stopped at Shitou, intending to depose Emperor Ming. The guests were seated in large numbers. Dun knew that the emperor was intelligent and wanted to depose him for being unfilial. Whenever someone mentioned the emperor's unfilial behavior, they always said it was said by Concubine Wen. Wen once served as the commander of the Eastern Palace, and later became our Sima, and he knows it very well. Soon, Wen came. Dun showed his authority and asked Wen, "What kind of person is the Crown Prince?" Wen said, "A mean person cannot judge a gentleman." Dun's tone was stern, and he wanted to use his authority to make him obey him, so he asked Wen again, "Why is the Crown Prince good?" Wen said, "He is a man of deep insight, which is beyond the reach of shallow knowledge. However, he serves his parents with courtesy, which can be called filial piety."
