When Wen Yanbo was appointed assistant minister of the official department, the candidate official Pei was not appointed. So I recommended myself to Yan Bo, saying that he was good at satirizing and joking with common sayings. Yan Bo asked him to laugh at the bamboo in front of the hall. Pei said, "Bamboo is not withered in winter and the moon is not hot. There is no room for China people in the stomach, so there is no need to work outside the skin. " Let him mock the screen wall again, and Pei said, "It's eight or nine feet high, six or seven steps from east to west, and it's not enough to cover the way." Yan Bo said, "It seems that your sarcasm is directed at me." Pelliot said, "It's already moving your ribs. It's not just hurting your arm. " Wen Yanbo was ashamed and gave Pei a job.
3 1. Jubo Xun fought back with kindness.
Jubo Xun went to a far-away place to visit his sick friend, and happened to meet the conference semifinals to attack the city. A friend said to Giant Bo, "I am a dying man. Please go! " Jubo Xun said: "I came all the way to visit you, but you want me to leave;" "This kind of behavior that destroys morality because of fear of death is what I Jubo Xun can do?" When the thieves came, he asked Jubo Xun, "When the army arrived, the whole city fled. Who are you to stay here alone? " Jubo Xun replied, "My friend is ill, and I can't bear to leave him. I would rather trade my body for my friend's life! " After listening to this, the thieves and soldiers said to each other, "We irrational people have invaded this moral country!" " So all the army went out of the city and the city was saved.
32. Cai Hong went to Los Angeles.
When Cai Hong came to Luoyang, the local people in Luoyang said to him, "The official office has just been established, and all officials are recruiting subordinates, seeking talents from humble origins and recruiting excellent people from Shan Ye hermits. You are a scholar on the land of Wu Chu, and you are a conqueror of a nation. What special talents do you have to participate in the recruitment? " Cai Hong replied: "The night pearl is not necessarily produced in Jinmeng River; You don't have to pick the wall jade from Kunlun Mountain. Dayu was born in Dongyi and Wang Wen was born in Xiqiang. The birthplace of sages is not necessarily a fixed place. Once upon a time, King Wu crusaded against Zhou Wang and moved the fools of Shang Dynasty to Luoyang. Are you descendants of those people? "
33. Shi Chong and Wang Kai compete for greatness.
Shi Chong and Wang Kai compete for wealth. They both decorate their horses, chariots and clothes with the most colorful and gorgeous things. Emperor Wu of Jin was Wang Kai's nephew and often helped Wang Kai. He once gave Wang Kai a two-foot coral tree. This coral tree is flourishing, and few other trees in the world can match it. Wang Kai showed it to Shi Chong. When Shi Chong saw it, he knocked on it with a latte and broke it. Wang Kai felt sorry and thought that Shi Chong was jealous of his treasure. His voice and expression are harsh when he speaks. Shi Chong said, "It's not worth regretting. I'll pay you now. " So I asked my men to take out all the coral trees at home. There are six or seven trees three or four feet high, and their trunks and branches are incomparable and dazzling. There are more Rainbow Kay. When Wang Kai saw it, he got lost.
34. Wang Xizhi's wit
When Wang Xizhi was ten years old, the general loved him very much. Often let him sleep in a tent. Wang Dun once got up to pay the bill first, but Wang Xizhi had not got up yet. After a while, Qian Feng came in to discuss something important, forgot that Wang Xizhi was still under the account, and talked about the plan to betray the imperial court. When Wang Xizhi woke up, he heard what they were talking about. Frightened, he knew he was dead, so he spat on his face and bedding and pretended to be asleep. Wang Dun and others were just in their plot when they remembered that Wang Xizhi had not got up yet. They were very frightened and afraid that the child would leak out. They all said, "We must get rid of him!" " When I opened the curtain, I saw that Wang Xizhi vomited all over his face, believing that he was really asleep, so he was saved. Praise him for being clever at that time.
35. Ban Chao joined the army.
Ban Chao was born in Pingling, the son of Ban Biao, the county magistrate of Xu County. Ban Chao is ambitious and doesn't care about trifles. But filial piety and diligence at home often lead a hard life, and labor is not shameful. He is eloquent and has read a lot of historical classics. In 62 AD (the fifth year of Yongping), my brother Ban Gu was recruited as a school bookboy, and Ban Chao and his mother also took their classmates to Luoyang. Because his family was poor, Ban Chaochang copied books for the government to earn money to support his family. He copied for a long time and worked hard. On one occasion, he stopped his work, threw a pen and sighed: "If a gentleman doesn't have better ambition and strategy, he should make great achievements in a foreign land like Fu Jiezi in Zhao Di and Zhang Qian in Liang Wudi, so as to get a seal. How can he be busy between pens and inkstones for a long time? " People around him laughed at him. Ban Chao said: "How can a teenager understand the ambition of a strong man!"
36. Landmark Huaiju
In the Three Kingdoms period, there was a man named Lu Ji in the State of Wu. His father's name is Lu Kang. He was a magistrate of Lujiang and had a good relationship with Yuan Shu. Lu Ji met Yuan Shu in Jiujiang when he was six years old. Yuan Shu was given oranges. Lu Ji stole three and left Yuan Shu. Oranges fell to the ground. Yuan Shu said with a smile, "Lu Lang is a guest with oranges. Why? " Lu Ji knelt down and replied, "Oranges are sweet. I want to take them back to my mother! " "Yuan Shu said:" Lu Lang knew filial piety at such a young age, and he will definitely become a great talent when he grows up! "Yuan Shu was surprised and often praised later.
Now some people hide fruit in their arms when eating, thinking of children in Doby. Still hiding in your arms, why not turn love for children into love for parents? The wizard Lu Lang can serve as a model.
37. Suwu Shepherd
Wei Law knew that Su Wu could not intimidate and surrender after all, so he reported Khan. Khan wanted him to surrender more and more, so he imprisoned Su Wu in a big cellar and didn't give him anything to drink or eat. When it snowed, Su Wu lay chewing the snow and swallowed it with felt wool to satisfy his hunger. He would not die for several days. Huns thought it was amazing, so they moved Su Wu to a deserted place near Beihai, and let him graze the ram, saying that he would give it back to Han after the ram gave birth to a lamb. At the same time, his subordinates and his entourage Chang Hui were placed in other places. After Su Wu moved to Beihai, the grain could not be sent out, so he had to dig out the wild fruits stored by the wild rats to eat. He leans on Jeff in the cold pavilion to graze the sheep, and holds them when he sleeps and gets up, so that the yak tail hair tied to his joints can be taken off.
38. King Xiang of Chu asked Yu Song Yu.
King Xiang of Chu asked Song Yu, "Perhaps Mr. Wang acted carelessly?" Why don't all scholars and people praise you so much? "Song Yu replied:" Yes, that's right, there is such a situation. I hope your majesty will forgive my sin and let me finish. " "There is a guest singing in Beijing. At first, he sang "Li Xia" and "Ba people", and thousands of people sang with him in the capital. Later, he sang Yang A and Autumn Dew, and hundreds of people in the whole city followed him. When he sang Yangchun and Snow White, only dozens of people in the city sang with him. Finally, he quoted Shang Sheng, portrayed Yu Yin, and used the voice of flowing water. Only a few people in the city followed him. The more elegant the song is, the fewer people will sing along.
39. Fan Zhongyan is interested in the world.
Fan Zhongyan lost his father when he was two years old. Mother is poor and has no one to rely on. She remarried to Zhujiajian Island's home in Changshan. When he grew up, he knew his life and said goodbye to his mother with tears. Leave to study in Du Nan College. He studied hard day and night and never took off his clothes to sleep for five years. Sometimes I feel very tired and sleepy at night and often wash my face with cold water. Eat every meal, only two meals a day. So he mastered the essence of the Six Classics, and he passionately made up his mind to do something for the country. He often recites two sentences in his works: "Scholars worry about the world first, and then enjoy the world."
40. At the end of the semester, I took up the post of teacher.
At the end of his term of office, he was 14 years old. He worships the teacher with his book box on his back, not afraid of difficulties. It is often said that if people don't study, why should they finish their career? Sometimes I lean against a tree, build a hut, cut thorns as pens and use tree juice as ink. Read books in the moonlight at night and light hay when there is no moon. Whenever you have experience in reading, write your experience on your clothes to remember things. His apprentice admires his efforts and often exchanges clean clothes with him. You don't read the works of ancient sages. When he died, he warned: "if a person studies hard, even if he dies, he will still be alive;" If you don't study, even if you are alive, you are just a walking corpse. "
4 1. Ying (yǐng) Shu Yanyue
Once upon a time, someone wrote a letter to Yan from Ying, the capital of Chu. When I wrote it at night, the light was not bright enough, so I said to the servant with the candle, "Take the candle." . As a result, I unconsciously wrote the word "holding a candle" in my letter. When Xiang Yan saw the word "holding a candle" in his letter, he was very happy. He said that "holding a candle" means advocating honesty. To implement the Qingming policy, we should recommend talents to take on heavy responsibilities. "Xiang Yan told the prince this meaning, and the prince was very happy, so he did. Therefore, Yan is well managed. The country is well governed, but this is not the original intention of the writer. Most people who study now are like this.
42. Don't eat and steal food.
In the East, there was a man named Jingjing. He was going to a far place, but he was starving on the way. There is a robber named Qiu in father fox's residence. Seeing him lying on the ground with hunger, I brought him some soup to eat. After three bites, Yan Jing can see things. As soon as he saw the mound, he asked, "What do you do?" Qiu replied, "I am a lonely person. My name is Qiu." Jing Jing said, "Ah, aren't you a robber? Why are you still feeding me? I'm a benevolent man, and I won't eat the food you robbers send me! " He threw up on the ground with his hand, but he couldn't spit it out. His throat cackled and he died.
43. Alley Ferry Man
In the winter of Gengyin, he wanted to enter Jiaozhou from a small path, and ordered the little bookboy to tie books with wooden slips and follow. At this time, the sun is setting and the smoke in the evening surrounds the trees. Wangcheng is more than two miles. So he asked the ferryman, "Can we catch up with the south gate?" The ferryman looked at the little boy carefully and replied, "Go slowly, it's still open;": Let's go, then turn it off. " I was angry and joking. Halfway through the reading, the little book boy fell down and the rope that tied the book broke. He cried and didn't get up at once. Tidy up the books, but the south gate is locked. It suddenly dawned on me that the ferryman was shallow and close. People who fail in impatience and fail to reach their destination in the dark are probably like this, probably like this!
44. Do three things at once.
During the reign of Xiangfu, there was a fire in the palace. Ding ordered the palace to be built, fearing that he would borrow soil far away. Ding ordered digging in the street, and a few days later it became a deep ditch. Ordered the Bianhe River to be introduced into the ditch, and all bamboo rafts and shipping materials were transported into the palace along the ditch. After that, fill the ditch with burnt-out equipment and surplus materials, and fill the street again. I did three things in one fell swoop, which saved more than 100 million.
45. Everything has advantages and disadvantages.
Go to Qi to cross a big river. The boatman said, "This river is too shallow for you to cross by yourself. How can you do something that makes the king of Qi happy? " Gan Wudao: "No, you don't know the truth. Everything has advantages and disadvantages; Do things honestly, carefully, and defeat the enemy without fighting; Good horses like Miracle and Yan Yan can walk thousands of miles a day, but it's worse to leave them at home to catch mice than kittens. An official can be famous all over the world. Artisans are not as good as loggers, and now I am not as good as you, and you are not as good as me. "
Consideration of
Jia Dao took part in the imperial examination for the first time and went to Beijing. One day, he remembered two poems on the donkey's back: "The bird is staying in the tree by the pool, and the monk is knocking at the door on the moon." I wanted to use the word "push" again, but I couldn't decide after repeated thinking, so I continued to chant scriptures on the donkey's back and reached out to make push and knock gestures. Pedestrians are surprised to see Jia Dao like this. At that time, Han Yu was appointed as the acting local governor of Beijing, and he was patrolling with his chariots and horses. Jia Dao unconsciously went straight to the third section of Han Yu's honor guard and kept gesturing. So he was suddenly pushed to Jing Zhaoyin by Han Yu's entourage. Jia Dao gave a detailed answer to this poem he was brewing. Whether to use "push" or "knock" is uncertain. His mind left the immediate thing, and he didn't know how to avoid it. Han Yu stopped to think for a while and said to Jia Dao, "It's good to use the word' knock'." So the two men rode back home side by side on donkeys and horses, and discussed the methods of writing poems together. They were reluctant to leave each other for several days. (Han Yu) Therefore, he forged a deep friendship with Jia Dao.
47. Look at each other
At first, Sun Quan said to General Lu Meng, "You are now in an important position and have great power. You must study further!" Lv Meng refused on the grounds that there were many military affairs. Sun Quan said, "Do I want you to learn classics and become a learned man? It's just that you should know more about the past. You said you had to deal with a lot of things. Who can handle more things than me? I often read books and feel that I have gained a lot. " Lumen then began to finish his research. When Lu Su passed by looking for Yang and discussing world affairs, Lu Su was very surprised and said, "Your talent and strategy are no longer comparable!" " Lv Meng said: "When a scholar leaves for three days, he should look at it with a new eye. Dude, why do you see things so late! " Then Lu Su visited Monroe's mother, became friends with Monroe, and then left.
48.knowledge
A wise monarch does not see everything, but understands what a monarch should be in charge of. A skilled monarch should not do everything himself, but should be familiar with the gist of officials. Be familiar with the essence of officials, so save trouble and govern the country. Knowing what the monarch should be in charge of can centralize power and stop rape. Stop the rape, you won't come, and the truth will come out. The truth has not been whitewashed, but it can be revealed. This is called Zhi Zhi.
49. Five Analects of Confucius
Ceng Zi said, "I have to reflect on myself many times every day. Do I try my best to do things for others? Is it honest and trustworthy to associate with friends? Have you reviewed what the teacher taught you? "
Confucius said, "A gentleman is not worried about not having enough to eat, not worrying about being uncomfortable, being diligent in his work, and being cautious in his words. It can be said that he is eager to learn.
Confucius said, "I'm not worried that others don't understand me. I'm worried that I don't understand others."
Confucius said, "I started studying at the age of fifteen, and I can stand on my own feet at the age of thirty. Forty years old, I am not confused about something. At the age of fifty, I understood what fate was. At the age of sixty, I can listen to different opinions. At the age of seventy, I can do whatever I want without overstepping the bounds. "
Confucius said, "A gentleman speaks carefully and acts quickly."
50. exhortation
The character of a person with both ability and political integrity is cultivated by inner peace and concentration, and by frugal style. If you don't look down on worldly fame and fortune, you can't define your ambitions, and you can't realize your lofty ideals without physical and mental peace. You must concentrate on your studies, and you must study hard to increase your talents. If you don't study hard, you can't increase your intelligence. If you don't have a clear ambition, you can't achieve anything in your study. Pursuing excessive pleasure and laziness can't cheer up the spirit, and frivolous temper can't cultivate temperament. Over time, the will will wear away with the passage of time, and finally it will be as useless to society as dead branches and leaves. At that time, it was useless to stay in your own small world and sigh sadly!
5 1. Gentleman's ambition
Mencius said, "When Confucius climbed the East Mountain, he felt that Lu was getting smaller. When he climbed Mount Tai, he felt that the world had become smaller. Therefore, it is difficult for people who have seen the sea to be attracted by other waters, and it is also difficult for people who study under saints to be attracted by other remarks. There are certain ways to see water, so you must look at its waves. There is light in the sun and the moon, and every tiny gap should be illuminated. Running water will not flow forward until it is pitted; A gentleman is interested in the Tao, and there is no equivalent, and it cannot be achieved. "
52. Set an example and be calm.
Parents and brothers behave well, and the younger generation may not learn to like it, nor may they be comparable. But if the elders have bad behavior, the younger generation will learn it as soon as possible, and it is no different. Therefore, when teaching the younger generation, the elders must correct their behavior, guide them and let them study hard, instead of just wasting time on words and not setting an example. If the moral person's behavior is a little excessive or biased, some unscrupulous people will attack because of jealousy and will not tolerate it. But even if a virtuous person does not make mistakes, the villain may not be able to tolerate him. Therefore, when moral gentlemen get along with immoral villains, we must treat them calmly and don't scold them too hard.
53. Have a degree
A country will neither be forever strong nor be weak forever. Countries with strong law enforcers are strong, and countries with weak law enforcers are weak. Chu Zhuangwang annexed 26 countries, expanded its territory for 3,000 miles, and the king of Zhuang destroyed other countries, thus weakening the State of Chu. Qi Huangong annexed 30 countries and expanded its territory for 3,000 miles. Duke Huan destroyed other countries, and Qi weakened. Now these countries have become weak countries because their ministers and officials are committed to the chaos of the country, not to governing the country. These countries are weakened by chaos, and they all lose their national laws to practice favoritism and malpractice. It's like carrying dry wood to put out the fire, and confusion and powerlessness will only get worse.
54. Gameloft
Is there the greatest happiness in the world? Is there anything that can or can't survive? Now, what should be done and on what basis? What is there to avoid, what is there to feel at ease? Close to what and give up what? What do you like and hate?
What people in the world respect and value is wealth, nobility, longevity and good name; What I like is physical comfort, rich food, beautiful clothes, gorgeous colors and beautiful music; What is considered low is poverty, humbleness, short life and notoriety; The pain and trouble are that the body can't get comfortable and comfortable, the mouth can't get delicious, the appearance can't get beautiful clothes, the eyes can't see gorgeous colors, and the ears can't hear sweet music; If you can't get these things, you will be greatly worried and worried. These methods of treating your body shape are really stupid.
55. Confucius' family praise
Taishi Gong said: The Book of Songs says: "Mountains make people look up, and virtue makes people follow suit." Although I can't reach the highest point, I always yearn for it. When I read Kong's book, I imagined him as a man. When I came to Lu, I visited the Confucius Temple, the car, the clothes and the sacrificial vessels. Many students study etiquette at his home on time, but I can't bear to leave. Kings of the world, until there are many sages! Most of them are the glory of the time, and the past is the past. Confucius, a common people, has been handed down for more than ten generations, and scholars regard him as their master. China, from the emperor to the vassal, talked about the six arts, all according to Confucius' judgment, which can be said to be the highest saint!
56. Gaudi asked the saint for a letter.
It is said that no ancient holy king can surpass Zhou Wenwang, and no overlord is higher than Qi Huangong. Zhou Wenwang and Qi Huangong became famous with the help of sages. Isn't the wisdom of the sages in the world inferior to that in ancient times? The worry is, if the monarch doesn't make friends with them, how can the wise men come? Now I rely on the blessing of the gods and the help of wise scholars to calm down the world and unify it into a family. I hope this world can be maintained for a long time, and the ancestral temple will be dedicated for generations. The sage used * * * to pacify the world, but I didn't need * * * to govern the world and make the people happy. Will this work? Some smart people are willing to make friends with me. I can respect him and make him a big official. I specially announced this imperial edict to the whole world, so that everyone can understand what I mean. The suggestion was presented to the prime minister, who was a vassal; Yu Shicheng is a county magistrate. Those who are truly virtuous and wise should be persuaded by the county magistrate to drive them out and send them to the Prime Minister's office to register their experiences, looks and ages. If there is such a sage, the county magistrate will not report it, and will be dismissed after discovering it. Don't send old and weak sages.
57. Send a preface to Emperor Wen of Sui (annals)
Playing the piano has little skill. This skill is to the extreme, the big one is Gong Yin, and the small one is Yu Yin. If you play the strings quickly, the timbre will change with the change of mood; The voice is urgent and looks sad; The voice is very gentle and looks very comfortable. Sometimes it seems like a landslide and a stone crack, spring water gushes from the mountain, and there seems to be strong wind and heavy rain at night; Sometimes it is like a widower's widow's sigh, and it is like a harmonious female bird and a male bird singing to each other. Its deep worries and distant thoughts are the last words of Yu Shun, Zhou Wenwang and Confucius. Its misery, sadness, emotion and anger are the sighs of the orphan Baihua and the loyal minister Qu Yuan. The emotions of joy, anger, sadness and joy will inevitably touch people's heartstrings deeply; The pure, quaint and indifferent timbre is no different from the language of the three generations of Yao and Shun, the worries expressed in Confucius' articles, and the resentment and satire contained in the Book of Changes and the Book of Songs. You can hear it with your ears and pop it up at will. If you choose that kind of harmonious tone to dispel melancholy and send out deep thoughts, it will often touch people's hearts and be extremely profound.
58. Sudden salary
A guest who visited the host saw that the chimney of the stove was straight and there was firewood piled up beside it, so he said to the host, "Change the corner of the chimney and keep the firewood away from it." Otherwise there will be a fire. " The host was silent and refused. Soon, the house caught fire and the neighbors came together to put out the fire. Fortunately, the fire was put out. So, the owner killed the cow and gave a banquet to thank the neighbors. The people who were burned by the fire were arranged in seats, and the others were arranged in order of superiority and inferiority, but the guests who suggested "curve" were not invited. Someone said to the host, "If you listened to the guests, you wouldn't have to spend money on the banquet, and there wouldn't be a fire." Now, those who evaluate merit, invite guests and raise' sudden salary' are not thanked and benefited, but those who are burned have become guests? "The host just woke up and invited guests.
59. Jin people executed
The state of Jin sent troops to crusade against Xing, and prepared to send troops to save Xing. Minister Bao made a suggestion: "It is too early to send troops now. The war has just begun, and the state of Xing has not perished. Jin's manpower, material resources and financial resources have not been exhausted. If Jin's manpower, material resources and financial resources are not exhausted, Qi's position among princes will not show its importance. Besides, the merit of helping a country in danger is not as great as that of reviving a dying country. You might as well send troops to save Xing Guo later and let Xing Guo and Jin Guo attack each other first, which is really beneficial to Qi State. When Guo Xing dies, we will help it restore the country, so that its reputation will be better. " Hearing Bao's words, he immediately gave up his plan to send troops to save him.
60. consignment of lost property
Li went to North Korea as an envoy, and a military attache was his deputy. Lee paid no attention to the property given by North Korea and entrusted everything to his deputy. At that time, there was a leak in the bottom of the ship. When loading the ship, the assistant will put the fine silk and other silk products obtained by Li on the bottom of the ship, and then put his own things on it to avoid soaking or leaking. Sailing to the sea, when encountering strong wind, the ship will capsize, and the boatmen are very afraid and demand to throw all the loaded things into the sea. Otherwise, because the ship is too heavy, it is difficult to avoid disaster. The deputy was in a hurry to throw everything on the boat into the sea and had no time to choose. About the middle of the stadium, the wind stopped and the boat calmed down. After a while, I counted and checked what I threw, all of which belonged to this deputy. And Li got something, because he was at the bottom of the boat, and he didn't lose anything.
