The questioner couldn't help laughing and said, "Now the situation is so chaotic that everyone has fled separately. The owner of this pear tree in front of us is long gone. What do you care if the master is gone? "
Xu Heng said; "The pear tree lost its owner. Does my heart have no master? " Xu Heng never picks pears.

Once the teacher found that he often took a small notebook out of his pocket and thought it was a child's plaything. When I took a closer look, I found that I wrote my own Confucian classic quotations, which was greatly appreciated.
Xu Pu also followed the example of the ancients, and constantly checked his words and deeds. He put two bottles on his desk to store black beans and soybeans respectively. Whenever a good idea comes to my mind, or I say a good word and do a good thing, I throw a soybean into the bottle. On the contrary, words and deeds are wrong, throw a black bean. At the beginning, there were more black beans and fewer soybeans, so he constantly reflected deeply and constantly encouraged himself. Gradually, the number of soybeans and black beans is flat, and he will make persistent efforts and be stricter with himself; Over time, the soybeans in the bottle accumulated more and more, and the black beans gradually became insignificant. He kept this habit until he became an official.
Under this lasting restraint and encouragement, he constantly cultivated his morality and improved his moral character, and finally became a respected generation of famous ministers. Xu Pu's high standard constraint on his behavior shows his strong sense of self-discipline. Even when he is alone, he can consciously be strict with himself and be cautious in what he says and does.
Prudence and independence are the highest state of self-discipline. It enables a person to work independently and unsupervised, without being influenced by external things, but does not relax the intensity of self-supervision, prudently and consciously regulate his words and deeds according to consistent moral standards, and maintain his moral consciousness as always.

Six self-controlled celebrity stories
The following is the story of a self-control celebrity:
It was King Farouk of Egypt who was overthrown by Nasser.
This person has poor self-control since childhood and is easy to swim. At the age of five, it was not good to study in Meng Kai. Later, his father sent him to the suzerain country, England, for education. As a result, he became a real dude. What's more, at the age of sixteen, my father died and nobody cared.
This man ascended the throne in the 1930 s. As a king, he didn't learn well. Love gluttony, eat 40 quails at a meal. I didn't find out how to eat it, but it was probably intact. Soon his weight exceeded 300 pounds.
Supposedly, it's not bad to be a quiet fat man. After all, the British help in domestic and foreign affairs. Farouk is not the master, and he has no ambition. It's not difficult to keep quiet for a few years. Another hobby of this man is to shut himself in a dark room, and then ... munch on chocolate, but he has no intention of making progress. But this man has a hobby that doesn't match his figure-pickpocketing. It is said that he worships superior people and is a real aristocrat himself. Walking in the palace is like nobody's business. The most famous trophy is Churchill's pocket watch. In the end, Britain protested through formal diplomatic channels before returning Qiu Nawei's watch. Another trophy with heavy taste is Pahlavi's sword. I have heard about this for a long time, and I didn't know until I checked it today-Pahlavi was in South Africa, and the funeral procession passed through Egypt. Farouk sneaked into the mourning hall alone and stole Pahlavi's funerary objects, not just his sword. It's really hard for a 300-pound fat man.
Since Farouk can steal, he is also quite knowledgeable. His personal collection of coins is also famous, but most of them were confiscated and auctioned after the Egyptian revolution.
1952, Nasser led the Freedom Army officers to launch a revolution, and Farouk abdicated and went into exile in Italy. 1965, died at the age of 45, enjoying the country 16 years. It is said that he ate twelve lobsters, eight fish, six bowls of fried rice, fruit, yogurt and countless cakes before he died. Although Farouk was forced to leave, I'm afraid he was not so heartless as to say "I'm happy here and don't think about Egypt", but I must meet Allah after eating so much.
