Yan Zi didn't accept it. After many farewells, I politely declined and finally said, "My family is not poor. Thank you for your return. Kindness has spread to my father's house, my mother's house, my wife's house and my friends. For those who help, your return is rich. " My family is not poor. I've heard people say that giving to the people means replacing the main body that rules the people with a monarch, and loyal ministers won't do that.
Taking a generous reward from the monarch but not giving it to the people is to put the property in a basket for your own use, which is not what benevolent people do; In North Korea, you will get rich rewards from the monarch. In the outward direction, we should not offend the scholars because of the reward from the monarch. After death, the property will be transferred to others. This is to accumulate property for ministers. Smart people don't do that. If you have clothes to wear and food to eat, you can avoid (all) troubles (as long as you are satisfied). "
Qi Jinggong said to Yan Zi, "In the past, our former monarch, Huan Gong, gave Guanzhong a land population of 500 miles, and he accepted it without refusing it. Why did you refuse to accept it? " Yan Zi replied: "I heard that smart people think too much and will inevitably make mistakes." Stupid people, after careful consideration, have their merits. I think it's Guan Zhong's fault and mine, right? So thank you again. It's unacceptable. "
Original text:
Yan Zifang has dinner, and the special envoy is here. Divide the food, the messenger is not full, and Yan Zi is not full. The messenger objected and the words were public. Gong said, "Hey! If Yanzi's family is poor! I don't know, it's my fault. " Please send an official daughter and a city rent to serve the guests. Yan Zici. Finally, he bowed his head and said, "The baby's family is not poor. With the courtesy of the monarch, cover the three families and delay the friendship to shake the people. The monarch's gift is also thick, and the baby's home is not poor.
The baby heard this, and the husband took the king away and gave it to the people. This is a minister and a citizen of Jun Jun, and a loyal minister will not do so; Taking the monarch without giving it to the people is a hidden basket, and the benevolent does not do it; Enterprising for the monarch, retreating to offend the scholar, and moving wealth to others after death is to slaughter and hide, but the wise do not do it. In short, cloth, a bean of food, enough in the middle, free. "
Duke Jing of Jin asked Yan Zi to say, "In the past, my predecessor Huan Gong gave Guan Zhong 500 letters from the bookstore, but he took them away without saying goodbye. What's the point of his resignation? " Yan Zi said, "When a baby hears about it, a sage loses when he worries, and a fool gains when he worries. Who cares about the lost baby? Therefore, I will worship again and dare not order. "
Extended data
At the beginning, through the short scene of Yanzi's "food-sharing messenger", Yanzi's family is poor. Gong Jing's exclamation shows that Yan Zi's poverty has a long history, and he has been hiding it from others, which highlights Yan Zi's consistent style of thrift and hard work. This is the origin of Yan Zici's "golden daughter". Gong Jing's "Being a Daughter Rents from the Market", "Being a Daughter" and Yan Zi's "Finally Saying Goodbye" show that Yan Zi's melodrama is not like ordinary people and shows his determination to be a daughter.
The confession in A Baby's Home is Never Poor shows Yan Zi's upright and noble spiritual realm as a loyal minister, a benevolent man and a wise man. Yan Zi's family has reached the point where the emissary has to "share food", and it is really hard to see how poor it is. Apart from supporting a large family, the main reason for poverty is to "shock people" and "make friends" with income.
"Making friends" here doesn't mean ordinary personal relationships, but many talented people, which means the same as "scholar" below and "guest" above. It can be seen that Yan Zi is trying his best to find and train talents for the country with his hard-earned salary. Yan Zi really did his best for the country and the people.
Yan Zi's Ci "Qian Jin" focuses on Yan Zi's "virtue".
This article focuses on memorizing words. Although it is narrative, it is tactfully smooth and reflects the soul of the characters in endless speculation. The full text can also be divided into two paragraphs.
The language style of the full text is unpretentious, but the style of writing is plain and graceful. Although it is warm and mellow, subtle thoughts are like waterfalls, so all the little things contain great significance. Ordinary words and white words have also become aphorisms, which is what this article is good at remembering. But the author can also see the richness from a few words.
For example, the details of "the emissary rebelled and spoke openly" can well outline the complex psychology of the emissary: sympathy for Yan Zi's poor family? Still dissatisfied with Yan Zi's mistreatment of envoys? Or is it a misunderstanding and resentment that I am so stingy with ministers? All kinds of feelings are in the word "public".
Others, such as the description of Qi Jinggong's language, the word "Xi" depicts his "surprise psychology" accustomed to luxury and pampering. Especially after Yan Zi explained the reason for "resigning as a daughter", Gong Jing still asked "why did he resign" and moved out of Guanzhong without saying goodbye.
As a precedent, it can be seen that Gong Jing does not agree with Yan Zi's behavior of saying "one thousand dollars", and in his mind, he does not necessarily regard Yan Zi's behavior as "a stupid move". Therefore, despite the self-reproach of "I don't know, it's my fault", it's hard to wash away his mediocre essence.
Baidu Encyclopedia-Yan Zi's words are precious.
