Since ancient times, sage emperors still need to study diligently, let alone ordinary people? The study begins with classics and history. I can't tell you what the key points are. Let me list the important chapters in modern times for the purpose of enlightenment. The children of scholar-bureaucrats must receive education when they reach a certain age. Those who have learned a lot have studied "Li" and "Zhuan", and those who have learned little have at least studied poetry and theory. When you reach the age of adulthood and get married, your body and personality are only slightly determined. At this time, you need to double your training. Those with lofty ambitions can hone themselves and achieve great things; those without ambitions will degenerate and become undisciplined and become ordinary people.
It is easy to separate but difficult to see again. This is something that the ancients valued. Farewell trip to Jiangnan, crying to say goodbye. Prince Hou, the younger brother of Emperor Wu of Liang, left the capital and went to Dongjun to bid farewell to Emperor Wu. Emperor Wu said: I am old and I feel very sad and uncomfortable to be separated from you. He shed tears as he spoke. The prince then said goodbye secretly and left in shame. Being blamed for this, I drifted on the ship for hundreds of days, but in the end I still didn't leave. It is a custom in the north to disdain separation, part ways at the intersection, and turn around with a smile. However, there are still people who seldom shed tears, and although they are heartbroken with grief, they still force a smile; such people should not be overly blamed.
When borrowing books from others, you should cherish and protect them. If there are any defects or damage, you should glue the books back and repair them. This is also one of the many qualities of scholar-bureaucrats. Jiang Lu of Jiyang had not finished reading the book. Even if he was in a hurry, he would wait until the book was sorted before getting up. Therefore, the book was not damaged and others would not blame him for neglect. Some people's desks are in a mess, with books scattered or lost, mostly scrawled by children and slaves, and destroyed by wind, rain, insects, and rats, which is really detrimental to morality. Every time I read a book by a saint, I am in awe; the book contains the principles of the Five Classics and the names of sages, and I dare not dirty it.
When Liang Xiaoyuan was in Jingzhou, there was a man named Ding Zang, also known as Hong Tingmin, who was good at calligraphy, especially cursive script and official script. Xiaoyuan used him when writing copywriting to record events. People in the military government thought this was very contemptuous, and most of them did not value him and did not let their children learn his calligraphy. There was a saying at that time: Ding Zang's ten characters are not as good as Wang Bao's few characters. I love his calligraphy and often collect it like a treasure. Xiao Yuan once asked Dian Zhuan Huibian to send Ding Zang's calligraphy to Xiao Jijiu to read. Xiao Jijiu said, "You are such a good calligrapher. Who wrote it? Why haven't you heard of his name?" Hui Bian answered truthfully. Zi Yunhuan said: This man is unparalleled in his descendants, so it is a strange thing that he is not praised by the world. Everyone who heard this said was somewhat impressed by Ding Zang. Soon he was promoted to the post of Minister Yi Caolang. Later, he became the attendant of King Jin'an and followed King Jin'an eastward. After the fall of Xitai, Ding Zhang's calligraphy works were scattered and lost, and Ding Zhang also died in Yangzhou. People who looked down on Ding Zhang's calligraphy in the past could not find a single calligraphy by Ding Zhang.
I type this word by word, just so that more friends can like classical Chinese. After all, we can’t lose all our ancestors’ things. 2. Full text translation by Mu Xian
Translation The ancients said: "A sage is born in a thousand years, and he is as close as between morning and evening; a sage is born in five hundred years, and he is as close as a shoulder." Touching shoulders. ”
This is to say that saints and wise men are so rare. If you meet a wise gentleman who is rare in the world, how can you not admire him! I was born in a time of chaos, grew up among soldiers and horses, moved in exile, and saw a lot. When I met celebrities and wise men, I always admired them with ecstasy.
When people are young, their mental state has not yet been finalized. They interact closely with others and are influenced by them. Their words, smiles, and actions, even if they have no intention of learning, will be subtle and naturally similar. What's more, people's behavioral skills are something that is more obvious and easier to learn! Therefore, being with good people is like entering a flower house where orchids are grown, which will naturally become fragrant over time; if you are with evil people, it is like entering a shop selling abalone, which will naturally become smelly over time. Mozi saw the situation of silk dyeing and lamented that silk would become whatever color it was dyed.
Therefore, a gentleman must be cautious in making friends. Confucius said: "Don't make friends with people who are not as good as yourself."
People like Yan Hui and Min Sun will not always be around. As long as there is something better than me, they are very valuable. Most people in the world are blocked and unable to see clearly. They value what they say but despise what they see. They value what is far away and despise what is around them.
Among the people who often interact with each other from childhood to adulthood, if there are wise men and philosophers, they are often dismissive and lack courtesy and respect. For those who live in other counties and other places, if they hear a little bit about their reputation, they will stretch their necks and stand on tiptoes, eager to see them. In fact, if you compare the short and long of the two and examine the fineness of the two, it is very likely that the one from a distance is still there. Not as good as those around him, so the people of Lu would call Confucius "Dongjiaqiu".
In the past, Gong Zhiqi of the Yu Kingdom grew up next to Lord Yu. Lord Yu was very casual with him and refused to listen to his advice. In the end, the country ended up being subjugated. You really have to be careful. ! When Emperor Yuan of Liang was in Jingzhou, there was a man named Ding Zang who was just an ordinary citizen in Hongting. He was very good at writing articles, especially cursive script and official script. Emperor Yuan asked him to write all his correspondence. However, people in the military government despised him, did not pay attention to his calligraphy, and did not want their own children to imitate and learn from him. There was a saying that "the ten pieces of paper written by Ding Jun are not as good as a few words written by Wang Bao".
I have always loved Ding Zang’s calligraphy and often treasure it. Later, Emperor Yuan of Liang sent a clerk named Hui Bian who was in charge of documents to send an article to Xiao Ziyun, the wine-offering officer. Xiao Ziyun asked: "The letter the king just gave you and the poem he wrote are really good. What is this person's surname?" What's his name? How come he has no reputation?" Hui Bian answered truthfully, and Xiao Ziyun sighed: "There is no one in this life who can compare with him, but he is not praised by the world. It is strange to hear this from now on! He was slightly impressed by Ding Zang, and Ding Zang also gradually became the Minister of Education and Cao Lang.
Finally, Ding Zang became the attendant of King Jin'an and followed the king eastward. When Emperor Yuan was killed and Xitai fell, his letters and documents were lost and buried. Ding Zang also died in Yangzhou soon after.
Those who looked down upon Ding Zang in the past will no longer be able to get a piece of Ding Zang’s calligraphy in the future. When Hou Jinggang entered Jiankang (Nanjing), although the Taimen Gate was closed, officials and ordinary people were in chaos, and no one could protect themselves.
Prince Zuowei led Yangkan to sit at Dongye Gate and made arrangements overnight, so that he could resist the evil for more than a hundred days. At this time, there were more than 40,000 people in Taicheng, and Wang Shao's court officials numbered no less than 100. It was only Yang Kan who could keep everyone in peace, and the difference between them was so obvious.
A few years after Emperor Wenxuan of Qi came to the throne, he indulged in drinking and sex, indulged in wanton behavior, and lost all laws and disciplines. But it was still possible to entrust political affairs to Shangshu Ling Yang Zunyan, so that the internal and external stability was stable, the government and the public were calm, everyone got what they wanted, and there was no objection. This was the case for the entire Tianbao Dynasty.
Yang Zunyan was later left behind by Emperor Xiaozhao, and the criminal government weakened. Hu Lu Mingyue was a hero of the Qi Dynasty's defense against the enemy, but he was killed innocently. The hearts of the soldiers were separated, and Zhou people had the idea of ??destroying Qi. Guanzhong still praises Hu Lu Mingyue to this day.
The use of troops by a general is not only the hope of thousands of men, but his life and death are related to the survival and destiny of the country. 3. Translation of Yan Family Instructions by Muxian

Be careful with translations of classical Chinese texts
Don’t make friends casually
There are many chapters, I can’t copy them all
Is this the case
p>
A gentleman's careful friendship is beneficial to his words and deeds
The ancients said: A saint in a thousand years is as good as a twilight; a wise man in five hundred years is as good as ①. "It is said that sages are so rare and so vast.
How can I not cling to and admire a gentleman who is wise and enlightened? I was born in troubled times, grew up in military service, wandered around the country, and heard and seen a lot. I am always fascinated by the famous and worthy people, and I am fascinated by them. When a person is young, his expression is uncertain, what he pays ③, how he talks, laughs, and actions, and he has no intention of learning, and it is subtle and dark, which is like nature; not to mention those who are more capable of performing ④ skills and are easier to practice ⑤? Therefore, living with good people is like entering a house of orchids, which will smell fragrant for a long time; living with evil people is like entering a house of abalones, which will smell bad for a long time. Mozi was sad about dyeing silk. This is what he said. A gentleman must be careful when making friends. Confucius said: "No one is as good as yourself if you don't have friends." How could disciples like Yan and Min be found in the world! But if it's better than me, it's worth it.
Translation
The ancients said: "A saint comes out in a thousand years, just as fast as morning to night; a wise man comes out in five hundred years, just as fast as a day. One is so many." This means that saints are so rare that they are so rare. If you meet a wise gentleman who is rare in the world, how can you not admire him? I was born in troubled times, grew up in the war years, wandered around, and heard and saw enough. But as long as you meet a famous sage, you will always admire them with ecstasy. When you are young, your mental temperament has not yet been finalized. You spend time with your friends who are like you and are influenced by them. Even if you don't intentionally learn from them, you will naturally become similar to your friends. What’s more, moral conduct and skills are obviously easy to learn? Therefore, living with good people is like entering a house full of grasses and orchids. Over time, oneself will become fragrant; living with evil people is like entering a shop full of abalone. Over time, oneself will become fragrant. It also became smelly. Mozi sighed when he saw people dyeing silk, which is what he meant. A gentleman must be cautious when interacting with others. Confucius said: "Don't make friends with people who are not as good as yourself." How can we meet wise men like Yan Hui and Min Sun all the time! As long as he's better than me, that's enough for me to value him.
Notes
① (bo 博): shoulder blade. ②Boyue: Dispersed, exiled. ③饎玎: The style of paragraph 玎. Refers to the close relationship between each other. ④ Conduct: conduct oneself morally. Arts: abilities, skills. ⑤Comparison: Tong "玚", obvious. Also: pronounced as "ye", it expresses an interrogative modal particle. ⑥Yan and Min: Refers to Yan Hui and Min Sun, disciples of Confucius.
Comments
As the saying goes, what comes in is red, what comes in is black. Living with good people is like entering a house of orchids, which will smell fragrant for a long time; living with evil people is like entering a house of abalones, which will smell bad for a long time. Making friends must be conducive to cultivating one's sentiments and increasing one's talents. Otherwise, it is better to have no friends than to be promiscuous. 5. Translate "Taizong was fond of calligraphy" in classical Chinese
Translate "Taizong was fond of calligraphy" in classical Chinese: Taizong was particularly fond of calligraphy.
This article comes from "Shang Shu Gu Shi", the original text is as follows:
Taizong was a keen student of calligraphy. There are 3,600 sheets of the King's original work, with a length of one foot and two feet as a axis. The most cherished treasure is "Orchid Pavilion", which is placed beside the seat and watched day and night. One day after tasting it, he whispered to Emperor Gaozong: "After I have lived forever, I will leave Lanting with you." On the day of the banquet, he stored it in a jade box and hid it in Zhaoling.
Explanation:
Tang Taizong loved learning calligraphy. There are three to six hundred authentic calligraphy works by Wang Xizhi, all with an axis of one foot or two feet. The most precious thing is "Lanting Preface". Hang it next to it and appreciate it no matter morning or evening. One day, Taizong said in the ear of Prince Li Zhi: "After I die, let me take the Preface to Lanting with me." When Taizong died of illness, Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi kept the "Preface to Lanting" in a jade box and buried it with him in the Inside the tomb of Taizong Zhaoling. 6. Classical Chinese translation of Mianshui Yan Tan Lu
Original text: During the Taizong Dynasty, there was a king who studied Youjun calligraphy, mastered its method, and served in the Imperial Academy. While the emperor was listening to the government, he paid attention to his notes and sent several servants to hold the notes. Every time he wrote them, he thought they were not good, so Taizong deliberately studied them. Asking again, the answer is the same as before. Or he asked about his meaning and wrote: "The calligraphy is very good. If it is called good all of a sudden, I am afraid that the emperor will no longer use it." After that, the emperor's writing skills were exquisite, surpassing the ancients, and the world thought it was the rule of writing.
Translation: When Taizong was in power, a man named Wang Zhu studied Wang Xizhi's calligraphy and mastered it very well. He was appointed Hanlin by Taizong. Taizong also liked to practice calligraphy in his spare time. Every time he had an idea, he sent his servant to Wang Zhu to see, but every time Wang Zhu said no, Taizong tried his best to imitate it more closely, and then asked Wang Zhu again, Wang Zhu still said no, Taizong asked him why. , Wang Zhu said, "The appearance of your calligraphy was originally very good, but if you said it in a hurry, I'm afraid the emperor does not understand the deep meaning of calligraphy." Later, Taizong's calligraphy became exquisite, surpassing many famous calligraphers in the past. Everyone said that this was suitable for the king's advice. 7. Classical Chinese translation of Wang Xizhi's studies
Translation: Wang Xizhi of Jin Dynasty, named Yi Shao, the son of Wang Kuang.
He was good at calligraphy at the age of seven. At the age of twelve, he saw the book "The Story of the Brush" about calligraphy by previous generations and stole it from his father's pillow to read. His father said: "Why did you steal my secret book?" ?" Wang Xizhi smiled but didn't answer. His mother asked, "Are you looking at the brushwork?" His father saw that he was young and might not understand, so he told Xizhi, "I will teach you calligraphy when you grow up." , let your children read this book now. Reading it when they grow up will delay their early development.
The father was very happy and gave him the book immediately. In less than a month, my calligraphy has improved a lot.
After Mrs. Wei found out, she told Taichang Wang Ce: "This child must be reading "The Art of Using the Bi". Recently, I saw his calligraphy and he has become a master." She said with tears: " This child will definitely be able to cover up my reputation in the future."
During the reign of Emperor Jin, sacrifices were made to the northern suburbs and the blessing plates were replaced. Thirty-three wrote the "Preface to Orchid Pavilion", and the thirty-seventh wrote "Huang Ting Sutra". After finishing writing, someone said in the air: "I am moved by your calligraphy, but what about the world? I am the father-in-law of Tiantai, and I claim to be Zhen Sheng Zhong Yao. . ”
Most of Xizhi’s calligraphy is not a single font.
