Yang Hu was about to catch up with Huan, but Zhongliang Huaifu came with him and said, "Change your steps and change your jade." Yang Hu wanted to chase him away, so he told Gongshan Buhu. Bu Xuan said: "He is the king, why should I complain?" After he was buried, Huanzi traveled to the eastern countryside and paid a fee. Zixie was Fei Zai, and he worked in the suburbs. Huanzi respected him. Lao Zhongliang is pregnant, Zhongliang is pregnant with respect. Zi vented his anger and said to Yang Hu: "What is it that Zi did?"

Shen Baoxu arrived with the Qin army, and Qin Zipu and Zihu sent 500 chariots to rescue Chu. Zi Pu said: "I don't know the way of Wu." He sent the Chu people to fight with the Wu people first, and then joined them in Ji Ji, and defeated their husband and king Yu Yi.

Wu's army defeated Chu's army at Yongxi, and Qin's army defeated Wu's army again. When Master Wu lived in Lu, Ziqi was about to burn it. Zixi said, "The bones of my father and brother are broken. I cannot collect them and burn them again." Ziqi said, "The country has perished! If the deceased knew what they were doing, they could use the old sacrifices. How could that be done?" Are you afraid of burning them?" Burning them, and fighting again, Wu's army was defeated. They also fought at the Gongsu River, where Wu's army was defeated and Wu Zi returned. After he was imprisoned, Junyu asked him to go first, and then he fled back. Hou Zang, the younger brother of Ye Gong and Zhu Liang, followed his mother to Wu and returned without waiting.

If Wu fights against Chu, there will be chaos. If there is chaos, there will be chaos. How can it be done? "Ding Chu?" Wang Zhi rushed to follow him and was about to enter Chengjiu. Lan Yinqian was involved in his money and did not go with Wang Zhou. Ji Ning, the king wanted to kill him. Zixi said: "Zi often only thinks about old grudges and is defeated. What can you do?"

The king's envoy came to the city and ordered him to return the order. Zixi asked Gao Hou what he was doing, but he didn't know. Zixi said: "I can't, just like words. I don't know how tall the city is, how can I know if it's small or big?" He said to him: "I can't say words for sure, and I'm just asking others to do it. Everyone has his or her own abilities and incompetences. When the king encounters a thief in the clouds, I will accept it." The enemy is still there." He showed his back and said, "I can't do anything about it. I can't do anything about the spleen."

Extended reading: The relationship between the Spring and Autumn Period and Zuo Zhuan

"Zuo Zhuan" is based on "Spring and Autumn" and adopts "Zhou Zhi", "Jin Cheng", "Zheng Shu", Materials from other countries such as "Chu Chu" explain the outline of "Spring and Autumn" by describing the specific historical facts of the Spring and Autumn Period. Sima Qian's "Historical Records: Chronology of the Twelve Princes" said: "Zuo Qiu Ming, a gentleman of Lu, was afraid that all of his disciples would be heresy, and each would follow his own ideas and lose his truth. Therefore, because Confucius' historical records specifically discussed his words, he became the Zuo family in the Spring and Autumn Period." Huan Tan "New Lun" further believes: "The sutras and transmissions of "Zuo Shi" are like the outside and the inside of clothes, and they are inseparable. The sutras are not transmitted, which makes the sage close his door and meditate for ten years without understanding." Yang Bojun said in "Zuo Zhuan" One article concluded that there are four ways in which "Zuo Zhuan" transmits "Chun Qiu": namely, "explaining the calligraphy of "Chun Qiu", supplementing "Chun Qiu" with facts, correcting errors in "Chun Qiu" and adding unscriptural texts."

There is another view that "Zuo Shi" is an independent history book and has no direct connection with "Chun Qiu". Dr. Jin Wenjing of the Western Han Dynasty "called Zuo Shi" as "Chun Qiu". 》". Wang Jie, a native of Jin Dynasty, said: "Jie often said that "Zuo Shi" is rich in rhetoric and meaning. It is a family book and does not focus on the distribution of classics. "Gongyang" is accompanied by scriptures and biographies. The classics are not written down, and the biography should not be published in vain. Chen Shang said: "Confucius wrote the scriptures, praised good and evil, and had clear categories and examples, and Zuo Qiu Ming was the historian of Lu, describing current affairs...the sun is connected to the moon...it is not a support. The holy words are bound to decorate the purport of the scriptures, and they are the same as those of the Taishi family... The Master is considered a classic, and it should be ranked with the "Poems", "Books", "Book of Changes", etc.; the reason Qiu Ming is a history, it should be ranked with Sima Qian, Ban Gu, etc. "

Both Liu Fenglu and Pi Xirui of the Qing Dynasty believed that "Zuo Zhuan" was an independent history book. Pi Xirui fully affirmed Wang Jiezhi's theory in "General Theory of Confucian Classics: Spring and Autumn Period" and quoted Zhuang. "Zhuan" in the 26th year of Gong Dynasty: "In autumn, Guo people invaded Jin. In winter, Guo people invaded Jin again." Du Yu's "Ji Jie" said: "In this year, the "Jing" and "Zhuan" each talked about their own affairs. Either the "Jing" is a straight text, or the strategy book exists but the slips are scattered, and the origin is not considered, so the "Zhuan" does not explain it, but just conveys the story."

"Zuo Zhuan" contains a lot of exegesis content, such as "Junzi said", "Fifty Fans", etc., but they are obviously traces of processing, and most of them are not integrated with the text. Lin Li from the Song Dynasty said: "Every word of a gentleman in "Zuo Zhuan" is written by Liu Xin." Some scriptures in "Chun Qiu" do not have corresponding "Zuo Zhuan" biographies, such as "Chun Qiu·Yin Gong's Second Year": "Twelve months in February" "Yimao, Mrs. Zi's death" Du's pre-note: "No biography"

There is no corresponding "Spring and Autumn" text in "Zuo Zhuan", such as "Zuo Zhuan·Xiang Gong's fifteenth year." ": "(Winter) Zheng Gongsun Xia Ru Jin went to the funeral, and Zizhong was buried." There is no corresponding "Spring and Autumn" scripture for this article. There are also those who say "the Jing and Zhuan are not the same" and "the Jing is followed by the Zhuan".
