"The Biography of Gu Liang" is the "Biography of Hu Liang". The character "榖" is the traditional Chinese character of the character "谷", and the character "榖" is from Mubu, not the character "hub". The two characters "Gu" and "Gu" are commonly used, and traditional Chinese characters are often used in ancient documents, so "The Biography of Guliang" is also the "Biography of Guliang". In addition, "Gu Liang Zhuan" is also known as "Gu Liang Chun Qiu" and "Spring and Autumn Gu Liang Zhuan". Together with "Zuo Zhuan" and "Gongyang Zhuan", it is one of the three commentaries on "Spring and Autumn".
The time recorded in "Gu Liang Zhuan" begins in the first year of Lu Yin and ends in the fourteenth year of Lu Aigong. It is said that it was created by Zixia's disciples. At first, it was taught orally, and it was not written down until the Western Han Dynasty. Among them, "Collected Commentary on Gu Liang's Biography in Spring and Autumn Period", "Biography on Gu Liang's Biography in Spring and Autumn Period", and "Supplementary Notes on Gu Liang" are the better annotations for Qing Dynasty scholars' annotation of "Biography on Gu Liang".
Excerpts from the original text of "Gu Liang Biography"
The first year of Zhuang Gong
In the spring of the first year, Wang Zhengyue. Following the regicide and not saying anything about ascending the throne, this is the right thing to do. What is the right thing to do if one succeeds in killing oneself without saying anything about ascending the throne? It is said that if the first emperor did not follow his path, then the son would not be able to bear to ascend the throne.
In March, Mrs. Sun Yuqi. Sun's words are still Sun's. It's taboo to run. When taking over the training, Lu Mu's changes were made by the founder. If you don't mention your surname, you will be demoted. To Heaven, people receive orders through Tao; to people, they receive orders through words. Those who are not as good as the Tao will be eliminated by heaven. Those who are not good at speaking will be rejected by others. The ministers have received great orders.
Xia, Shan Bo Ni Wang Ji. Who is Uncle Shan? My doctor's orders are from the emperor. He was ordered to be a doctor, so he has no name. What if he doesn't say anything? His meaning cannot be accepted by the capital. Why is its meaning unacceptable to the capital? It is said: "I bowed to the king and killed Qi, and made him marry as a courtesy to Qi. This meaning is certainly unacceptable."
In autumn, Wang Ji’s pavilion was built outside. Building, etiquette. Externally, it is indecent. Why build it as a courtesy? The royal concubine must go out from the public gate. When you are in the temple, you are already respected, when you are sleeping, you are already humble, and you have to build a festival for it. Outside of building, it becomes righteous. Outside of building, how can it be changed into something righteous? A person with hatred is not the reason for marrying; a person who is weak is not the reason for receiving a crown. He didn't say what was wrong with the coming of the Marquis of Qi: He didn't want the Marquis of Qi to be polite to me.
Winter, October Yihai, Chen Houlin died. When the princes die every day, it is right. The king sent Uncle Rong to Xihuan for orders. Ritual means receiving orders, but there is no order for people to receive orders. The life of tin is not correct. Obey it in life and practice it in death, this is etiquette. If you refuse to obey, you will pursue Xi to the death, which is extremely unfair! Wang Ji returns to Qi. Those who are in trouble will return. The Qi army moved to Ji, Qi, Qi and Qi. Ji, the country; Xi, Xie, Pong, the country. Or it can be said: The discipline was moved to Qi, Qi, and Qi.
