Everyone is a gentleman, and people are not villains; Everyone knows how to guard against him, but the most difficult thing to measure is those who say Yao and Shun, share the same aspirations, swear mountains and seas and have traps in their hearts. This hypocritical hypocrite must be disloyal to the monarch and unfilial to his relatives; You must not be honest when making friends, and you must not be moral when treating subordinates. Such people are mean people! If people mistakenly believe his words and fall into his conspiracy, then the consequences of this crime in the underworld are several times greater than those in the underworld! The Buddhist scriptures say: "People who speak ill of themselves will fall into the hell of pulling out their tongues and ploughing copper after death. If they are robbed for a long time, they will be reincarnated as beasts and often feed on thorns." Reincarnated as a human being, there will be no tongue root, and the breath will always stink; Even if he speaks well, others will not believe him; So, if you create a sinful career, you will get such a result! "Dare not quit?
In the Ming Dynasty, Xue said, "As the saying goes, a word is as good as a promise. Ordinary people think that what they say is not important, so they have developed the bad habit of speaking rashly and carelessly; As we all know, lying is a verbal mistake; Therefore, a person who can keep his word must have a good moral cultivation! " Story 1:
Sima Wengong (Sima Guang) of the Song Dynasty said, "His secret is honesty." To be' sincere', we must first start with swearing. Sima Wengong once said: "Liu Qi's life is a word' sincerity', and he can make the word' sincerity' unbreakable! Tian Sou, a citizen at that time, said, "If you pass by Nanjing and don't see the teacher system of Liu, it would be as regrettable as passing by Sizhou (Shandong Qubu) and not seeing the Great Sage Confucius! "Why can they be so touching? The answer is honesty!

When we see this fact, we should know how the word sincerity is misleading. Why do some people refuse to work hard on the word honesty?
Story 2:
Ren Guozuo was once ill for a long time, so he asked a Taoist priest to set up an altar and pray for God's safety and health. When Ren Guozuo was sleeping and dreaming at night, he heard the gods say to him, "Ren Guozuo, you have been a man all your life and have different views;" You have never done a good thing since you were a child. The prince has made a conclusion about the sins accumulated in your life, and your death is coming! " Sure enough, it was not long before Ren Guozuo died.

It should be noted that the soil in the five elements is not located, while the five elements (golden wood fire, water and soil) are mainly soil; Spring, summer, autumn and winter also depend on it, and everything can grow only by soil. When it comes to the righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith of the five permanent members, it is mainly faith. If the so-called benevolence, righteousness, courtesy and wisdom are lost, they will not achieve benevolence, courtesy and wisdom! Therefore, The Doctrine of the Mean says: "Honesty is the beginning of all things, and dishonesty is illusory!" Nowadays, people don't have a sincere heart to speak. How can they do this to themselves? If you can change your mind from now on, match your words with your deeds; When you encounter something, you can face it calmly, always leave a margin, don't care about the little place, and be worthy of others. Isn't this very happy? However, this is our most common mistake! Moreover, prevention and review are very difficult; So don't relax, isolate yourself from light and integrity, and walk into the dangerous realm of darkness and thorns!

The villain was also called "I" in ancient times. As opposed to "China people". The land outside the suburbs is barren or contemptible. In the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period, people living in small fields were called "savages". Barbarians pay taxes and serve corvees. Most of the barbarians in the Yin Dynasty were prisoners of war, but in fact they were slaves. The savages of the Zhou Dynasty were non-natives. The difference between China people and savages in the Zhou Dynasty is that China people have surnames, while savages have no surnames. China people are educated and can be officials, while barbarians can only farm; China people can be soldiers, but barbarians can't. Zuo zhuan. Twenty-three years of Xi Gong: "There are five deer, begging savages, savages and their blocks." Xunzi ChristianRandPhillips: "Chu Sunshuai, I am a thoughtful person." Yang Xu's Note: "I am also a countryman." "On Mencius Teng Wengong": "No gentleman, no savage; Without barbarians, there would be no gentleman. "

Evil slave villain.
Being a slave is also a social component. There is nothing to be ashamed of and nothing to show off. However, some of them, when they become slaves, rely on the reputation of their masters to bully others. After the master lost power and influence, they returned the evil eyes to the master himself. Even when I look down on my master on weekdays, I am constantly spying on the possibility of overthrowing and engulfing my master. This is an evil slave, and an evil slave is a typical villain. Among xie guozhen's Textual Research on the Party and Social Movements in Ming and Qing Dynasties, there is a Textual Research on Being a Slave in Ming Dynasty, which describes in detail the scenes of domestic slaves of the bureaucrats and gentry in the south of the Yangtze River in the late Ming Dynasty, including the familiar scenes of domestic slaves of cultural celebrities such as Zhang Yan, Qian, Gu and Dong Qichang. These domestic slaves either bullied the weak and feared the hard, or went to the government to falsely accuse their masters, or made waves to take away their property, which made the overall political situation in that era even more chaotic. To this end, Mr. Meng Sen once wrote an article "Reading the Changes of Slavery in Ming Dynasty", explaining that this change of slavery could not really be called class struggle, because at that time, although there were many people in Jiangnan who didn't want to be slaves, there were obviously many people who didn't have to be slaves, and this was the popular trend of seeking refuge from giants. Originally, life was already very good, but they wanted to rely on rich and powerful people to avoid taxes and run rampant in the countryside, so they signed up in droves to sell themselves into slavery. This is how the word "selling oneself for refuge" came into being. Mr. Meng Sen said, what kind of class struggle is this? The first group of slaves just made a big mess, and the latter group of people happily came to take refuge as slaves.
People usually come into contact with a large number of evil slave villains who have not signed up to betray themselves. Their characteristic is that they are always looking for someone to take refuge in and curry favor with. At the beginning of his refuge, he said all good things. Once he succeeded in taking refuge, he took the weaknesses and worries of the asylum-seekers as the capital of restraint, threat, rebellion and betrayal, but he remained a slave after rebellion and betrayal. Such people, no matter how fierce and vicious, can't pull away their backers. In character, they can't stand on their own feet at all. No matter what they do, they can only be regarded as villains.
Beggar villain
It is sympathetic to beg for survival because of a temporary famine, but when begging becomes a habitual occupation and then breeds a group psychology and cultural way, it will inevitably become a social hazard and has no positive significance. The basic point of beggars' psychology is to occupy other people's property bit by bit and quickly by means of self-abuse and self-mutilation. Beggars have no clear concept of ownership in their minds. They think everything in the world is not their own, but also their own. As long as they are willing to sacrifice their personality image to gain people's pity, things that don't belong to them may be transformed into their own. Their feet will always step on the pulley to change ownership. Before they got it, their tone was sincere enough to make people cry. When they got it, they immediately turned against each other and denied people. This practice is bound to be heckled, and the way they face heckled is to try to be a rogue to save themselves. They will swear to heaven that what they just begged for was born by them and broken by the anti-puppet benefactor. The benefactor thought that in this case, they would stop giving and shout loudly that there was a robbery. Call out for onlookers. Bored onlookers like to hear dramatic events that go against common sense. So, a robber who didn't need to rob robbed a robbed person who couldn't be robbed. What an incredible and sensational story. As the protagonist of this story, the beggar villain, together with the depressed charity giver, was deeply satisfied by the onlookers for a long time. Unlike street hooligans, beggar villains never abandon their misery, never show off their broken branches, never show off their rags, and never emphasize aging. Everything seems to have come to the end of their lives and earned the last line of defense for good people in human nature.
Once beggars form gangs, no one is easy to deal with. "Beggars for Clearing Banknotes" states: "In Huai, Xu, Hai and other places in Jiangsu Province, there were hundreds of groups begging in counties and neighboring provinces, most of which were in the early years of Guangxu." The strangest thing is that these mighty beggars in northern Jiangsu still carry passports with official seals, and begging in one place has become a kind of official business. After begging, they will inevitably go to the government to beg, and then affix their official seals to become the "visas" for begging at the next stop. Although the government frowns, it cannot bear to be persistent. Since you are poor and begging is not illegal, stamp them one by one. It is associated with this example that as long as someone is willing to make up his mind to get something by begging in life, he will always achieve his goal sooner or later. Seemingly poor but eager to see, condescending but insatiable, once obtained, they will immediately cheat, which is the basic ecology of beggars.
Rogue villain
All villains are full of hooliganism. When the slave villains are finally expelled by the last master, when the beggar villains are finally unwilling to play a sad role, when these villains completely lose their social orientation and even pretend to be value principles, they become the most licentious and illogical harassers of social order. This is a rogue villain.
The vitality of rogue villains comes from shameless. Some people in the west say that human beings are the only animals with shame and are not suitable for hooligans. In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there was a man named Cao Qincheng, who clearly knew that he was the magistrate of Wuxian County and had to entrust eunuch Wei Zhongxian as his father. In the end, even Wei Zhongxian himself could not stand the ugly act of flattery and was called scum. He dismissed from office, but said on the spot: "The righteousness of the monarch and the minister has been exhausted, and the gratitude of the father and son is unforgettable." Soon Wei Zhongxian's plot was exposed, and Cao Qincheng was put on death row as an accomplice. He has nothing to do with it. He robbed other criminals of food every day in prison and was full. This Cao Qincheng was undoubtedly a slave villain at first, but when he lost his master and was sentenced to death, he naturally became a rogue villain. I am a county magistrate. So what? How dare you take food from the killer's mouth and put it in his mouth! Will you call? I swallowed it. Anyway, I will be beheaded sooner or later, but I still dare not fight. -when people come to this step, they can really be said to have entered a certain realm.
Rogue villains who are not in prison are more active than other villains. They alternately play with framing, spreading rumors, alienating each other, eavesdropping, intimidation, fraud, breaking promises, treachery, attracting others' attention, etc., but they all smile and don't care at all. One of their great advantages is that they are not only proficient in rogue technology, but also familiar with the normal rules of the world. Therefore, they are good at deliberately confusing the two, leading ignorant good people to think that there is room for reason because they argue with each other. I don't think they know the truth, but they already know it; I thought they misunderstood at that time, but in fact they never misunderstood. You reason with them, and all they want to despise is everything. When you know this secret and just want to go back, they enthusiastically hand over the most normal truth, making people feel that you are the one who finally despises the truth. Mr. Qu's History of Beggars in China quoted many examples collected in Mr. Lei Junyao's Painted Skirts and Taoist Records, and the conclusion was: "If you ignore such people, you will inevitably get caught up in them anyway." This statement may affect many readers. On the other hand, around us, some people get along with each other for many years, while others, who claim to be their proteges, will soon breed endless troubles, probably hooligans.
Rogue villains seem to be mostly young people at first glance, but they are not necessarily. What they do is the result of time accumulation, so they are probably a little older. Mr xie guozhen once described a man named Gu in Shaxi, Taicang, Jiangsu Province in the late Ming Dynasty. He worked as a domestic slave, sold illicit salt and worked in yamen. His life experience is extremely rich, until he is old enough to organize a group of hooligans to harass the people constantly. The evaluation of history books is three words: "old and tired", which briefly summarizes a typical rogue villain who is really in place. Young people who play hooligans in the market are generally outside our scope.
Literati villain
When a few villains acquire a cultural carrier or a cultural mask, they become literati villains. I think, in the history of China, it is difficult to name a large number of villains with good literary talent. Song Zhenzong kept frowning when he didn't catch fish for a long time. In the Song Dynasty, a scholar named Ding Wei immediately recited a poem: "Fish are afraid of catching fish late." The poem was so ingenious that Song Zhenzong immediately cheered up. To be a cultural attendant of the court, you must have at least such skills. As for whether such a cultural follower is a scholar or not, it depends on how many bad things he has done.
Literati are actually cultural hooligans. Different from ordinary hooligans, they should also pay attention to improving their cultural image. From time to time, they are willing to write some calligraphy and legends, pretend to be academic generations, wipe a cultural signboard, pretend to be a celebrity teacher, and publicize that they have made friends with a master. More importantly, they know a little about the basic latitude and longitude of cultural character, so they always make great efforts to dress up impassioned, as if they are the last representatives of national integrity and cultural character, and they are just people who help each other when they see rough roads today. Sometimes, they will take all the lawsuits, turn things upside down and get a good reputation for upholding justice. As literati, they are particularly aware of the importance of public opinion, so they have spent a lot of thoughts on the ways and means of spreading rumors. In ancient times, ambitious Wang Mang was the most upright man in the world, and it was these people who pushed him to the throne of the emperor. In modern times, it is these people who poured a lot of dirty water on the weak woman Ruan, leaving her with nothing to argue about and having to write down her last words of "awesome words". These people are immoral, unprofessional and shameless, but they have to dress up as moral guards from time to time and plant their own fear of what others say on others. They hold a pen in their hands, but they have hardly done anything decent for the cultural construction of the Chinese nation except flattery and slander. I remember a contemporary art master who had a deep understanding of the world once said with deep feelings: "If a cultural person has not achieved any real cultural career in his life, but still cheated a little nickname in the cultural circle, then he can only live by speculation and continue to be a literary geek in his later years." The literati villains straddle between hooliganism and cultural means. In China, a culturally backward country, they are especially camouflage and destructive, because they turn the local filth of other villains into a common social pollution after renovation. Imagine a group of street hooligans throwing stones, throwing dirty water and making a scene when they see well-dressed pedestrians. This kind of evil behavior is easy to see. How many people can see it if you change a few people who are dancing and splashing ink into the swearing tone of which magazine? Maybe it's all literary criticism and artistic discussion.

Translation of ancient Chinese prose by villains:
Original: During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, an artist carried an urn about a foot long. Put in the money, open the lid and let the villain out, singing and retreating. When he arrived in Ye (the name of ancient county, now Shandong), Ye ordered the urn to enter the department and carefully checked the source of the villain. I was afraid to speak at first. Only by making a firm statement can we describe our hometown and clan. One day, the boy Guy Du Xue came back from school. Lu Yu artists were fascinated by him, and their limbs shrank sharply after being drugged again. He took it with him and thought it was a play. Angry, insisting on killing artists.
During the reign of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, there was a magician carrying a box with a villain hidden inside. The little man is about a foot tall. Someone put money in the box, and the magician opened the box and let the villain sing. After singing, the villain returned to the box. When the magician arrives at the palace, the person in charge of the palace will give the box to the magician, take it to the office, and carefully ask where the young people in the box are from. The villain was afraid to say at first. The person in charge asked again and again, and the young man told himself where he came from and which family he belonged to. It turned out that this little man was a primary school student. After he came back from the private school teacher, he was anesthetized by the magician. The magician then gave him medicine that greatly reduced his limbs; The magician picked him up and took him around as a tool for fun. Knowing this, the person in charge of Gong Ye was furious and killed the magician with a stick. Revelation: those who are greedy for money and harm their children should be severely punished!
