The zither is silent

Huan Xuanwu's memorial said: "Xie Shang was wise and upright, and won the people's praise at a young age."

The Heavenly Alchemist

Zengzi went to Fuxia to pay tribute to his ancestors. After the host filled the pond, he pushed the coffin back and brought it back. He brought down the women and then performed the rituals. The attendant asked, "Is it the etiquette?" Zengzi said, "The ancestor is Qie; Qie, why can't he stay overnight?" The attendant asked Ziyou again, "Is it the etiquette?" Ziyou said, "Eat under the window, bury the dead in a small way inside the door, bury the dead in a big way on the east side, and hold the funeral in the guest seat. The funeral is held in the courtyard and buried in the tomb. This is how it is far away. Therefore, funerals have progress but no retreat." Zengzi heard this and said, "It's too much. I'm the one who left the ancestor." Zengzi wore a fur coat to pay his respects, and Ziyou wore a fur coat to pay his respects. Zengzi pointed at Ziyou and showed him, "Fuck, you are a man who is accustomed to etiquette, how can you wear a fur coat to pay your respects?" The host had folded his hair in a small way, bared his clothes, and tied his hair; Ziyou hurried out and came back wearing a fur coat and a sash. Zengzi said, "I went too far, I went too far, this is it."

A lost dog

Chen Zhonggong was the chief of Taiqiu. There was a thief who robbed and killed a rich man, and he arrested him. Before reaching the place of departure, he heard on the road that some people were lying on the grass and refusing to get up, so he turned his carriage back to deal with it. The chief clerk said, "The thief is big, we should suppress him first." Zhonggong said, "How can it be better to kill a rich man than to kill one's own flesh and blood?"

Rebirth of the Dark Night Daughter

Beauty of imperfections

When a gentleman is about to build a palace, the ancestral temple comes first, the stables and storehouses come second, and the living quarters come last. For all household construction, sacrificial utensils come first, sacrificial tribute comes second, and domestic utensils come last. Those without land and salary do not set up sacrificial utensils; those with land and salary first make sacrificial clothes. Even if a gentleman is poor, he does not eat porridge with sacrificial utensils; even if it is cold, he does not wear sacrificial clothes; when building a palace, he does not cut hills and trees. When a senior official or scholar leaves the country, sacrificial utensils are not overused. The senior officials shall leave the sacrificial vessels with the senior officials, and the scholars shall leave the sacrificial vessels with the scholars.

Don't be hypocritical.

People regard Xie Shang as Lingda. Ruan Yaoji says: "It is as clear and fluent as Da." Some say: "Shang is naturally Lingda."
