The original poem "Wu (wù) Zi" said that the courtiers said: "I read the collection of emperors and know that it is Yao and Shun, not Jie and Zhou, and how to do the opposite." Wei Zhi said to him, "Although a man is a saint, he should still be self-defeating. Therefore, the wise offer their plans, and the brave do their best. " . Yang-ti relied on his own talents and was arrogant for his own use. As a result, he betrayed Yao Shun's words, and as an embarrassing trip, he didn't know it, even degenerated.

On the fifth day of March in the second year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong said to the courtiers, "I have read Yang Di Ji, which is profound in words and profound in knowledge. Yang Di also affirmed Yao Shun and denied Xia Jie and Shang Zhou. Why did he do the opposite? " Wei Zhi replied: "As the head of a country, although he is smart and knowledgeable, he should not be complacent and accept other people's opinions. In this way, talented people can give you advice, and courageous people can do their best for you. Emperor Yang Di was arrogant and self-righteous with his extraordinary wisdom. Therefore, I talked about the benevolence, righteousness and morality of Yao and Shun, but I did evil things that harmed the people, such as jealousy and foreigners, and I didn't realize it at all, which led to being overthrown and eliminated. " Emperor Taizong said: "The deeds of Emperor Yang Di are not far from now, and they are just our villains."
