Shou (pinyin: shǒu) is a Chinese character (commonly used word), which is the first-class general standard of Chinese. This word first appeared in the bronze inscriptions of Shang Dynasty. The ancient glyph consists of "rice" representing the house and "you" representing the hand. Its original meaning refers to control, but also to protection and defense. Later, it means not to be changed, it also means not to leave and wait, and it also means to be close to and rely on. From this, it is extended to follow without violating, and it is also extended to not violate moral integrity in spirit and thought.
Glyph evolution
In ancient times, "guarding" specifically referred to the local governors of state capitals, because "guarding" was the duty of these officials. In the Qin Dynasty, Shou was the chief of a county or county-level administrative unit, responsible for managing the whole county. Historical Records of Xiang Yu: "So I drew my sword and beheaded my head." It was renamed Taishou in Han Dynasty.
Han Shu Sui Zhuan: "I thought the Bohai Sea was a satrap." After the Sui Dynasty unified the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the name of the abolished county magistrate was changed to state secretariat, and it was renamed as well-known in the Song Dynasty. However, it is customary to take the Taishou as another name, such as Ouyang Xiu's "Drunken Pavilion": Who is the Taishou? Lu Xiu also. The guard is to maintain the original state. Therefore, "keeping" means keeping, such as being conservative and following the old rules; There is also the meaning of "waiting", such as "waiting for the rabbit".
To perform the duties in charge of affairs, we must follow certain principles and systems. So "observing" means observing and following. For example, obeying the law, being punctual and trustworthy. If you abide by the code of ethics, "compliance" means integrity and ethics.
