There was a great historian in Wei named Liu Zhuang who was ill. The Duke said, "If the illness worsens, you must inform me even if you are supposed to offer sacrifices." The Duke bowed twice and asked for the corpse, saying, "There is a minister named Liu Zhuang, who is not my minister, but a minister of the state. I heard that he died, so I will go." He went without taking off his mourning clothes, and then wrapped him up. He gave him the name of the Qiu family in the city and the name of the Pan family in the county, and put it in the coffin, saying, "My descendants will be there for generations, and there will be no change."

Rebirth of the Invincible

Shan Jilun was the governor of Jingzhou, and he often went out for fun. People composed a song about it, saying: "Shan Gong was drunk once, and went straight to Gaoyang Pond. He returned home without a care in the world, and knew nothing about tea. He could ride a fine horse, and chopsticks upside down on the fence. He raised his hand and asked Ge Qiang, how he compared to the boy from Bingzhou?" Gaoyang Pond is in Xiangyang. Qiang was his favorite general, and was from Bingzhou.

In the funeral of parents, one lives in a hut and does not lay on the ground, sleeps on straw and pillows, and does not talk about anything other than funeral matters. The king builds a hut for the deceased, and the officials and scholars cover it. After the burial, the pillars and lintels are covered, and the hut is not for the prominent. The king, the officials, and the scholars all have their corpses. For those who are not the proper sons, a hut is built for the secluded from before the burial. After the burial, stand with people: the king talks about the king's affairs, not the affairs of the state; the great officials and scholars talk about the public affairs, not the affairs of the family. After the king is buried, the king's government returns to the country, and after the mourning is over, they will wear the king's affairs; after the great officials and scholars are buried, the public government returns to the family, and after the mourning is over, they will wear the hat and the belt, and there will be no avoidance of the affairs of the armor. After the mourning, live in the whitewashed room, do not live with others. The king discusses the affairs of the state, and the great officials and scholars discuss the affairs of the family. After the auspicious, the whitewashed. When the auspicious is good, there will be no crying outside; when the mourning is over, there will be no crying inside, because the music has been played. After the mourning, follow the emperor, and after the auspicious sacrifice, go back to bed.

In ancient times, the seams of the hat were shrunk, but now, the seams are horizontal; so the hat of mourning is auspicious, which is not the ancient way. Zengzi said to Zisi: "Ji! When I was in mourning for my parents, I did not drink water for seven days." Zisi said: "The ancient kings established the rituals, those who passed by should bow down to reach it, and those who did not reach it should stand on tiptoe to reach it. Therefore, when a gentleman is in mourning for his parents, he should not drink water for three days, and he can only stand up after being caned." Zengzi said: "If small merits are not taxed, then distant brothers will never mourn, is that right?"

When Shan Gong met Ji and Ruan, they became close friends. Shan's wife, Han, noticed that the relationship between the Duke and the other two was different from usual, so she asked the Duke about it. The Duke said, “The only two men I could be friends with in those days were these two!” His wife said, “Fu Ji’s wife also watched Hu and Zhao in person and wanted to spy on them. Is that okay?” The next day, the two men came, and his wife advised the Duke to stay with them for the night and prepared some wine and meat. I climbed through the wall at night to look at it, and forgot to return until dawn. The Duke came in and asked, "What do you think of these two?" His wife said, "Your talent is far inferior to mine. We should just be friends because of our understanding." The Duke said, "They also always think I am better than them in understanding."
