vs 141 Hounds and cunning hares
Exiled, he saw that the flat avenue was overgrown with a mess of thatch, and just like his life, there was a sudden misfortune in the calm. He was so angry and sad that his heart was like being stirred by a club, and he couldn't sleep even after lying down. He had a headache and a premature age. Faced with the mulberry tree planted by his parents, he suddenly gave birth to a heart of respect. He has always been respectful and filial to his parents, but now his relationship with his parents is very distant. Helpless, he can only blame God for all this, since God has already given birth to him, why not give him a better fate.
He saw the dense willow trees, on which there was a rapid chirping of cicadas; At the edge of the bottomless pool, dense reeds grow. It's a thriving scene, and what about himself? But it's like a drifting boat, and I don't know where it will drift. The wild deer was running freely, raising its lithely hoofed four; In the early morning, the pheasant crows there, and it is the rooster that seeks the attention of the hen, how cheerful and full of life. And he is like that sick tree, so sick that he can't even grow branches. He was alone, wandering, and the pain and sorrow in his heart were incomprehensible to others.
He began to complain that his father was cruel and did not miss the relationship between father and son. He said: "The hare is cast into the net, and there are still people who will let it go, and people who die on the road will bury him, but my father has the patience to exile himself, and let him cry a thousand times. He blames his father and reveals the reason for his exile. He said that his father listened to the slander, and not only did he not think things through, but just as others could ask him to drink at will, he reversed the merits of the matter, spared the real guilty person, and added sin to him, and at this time he seemed to change from worry to resentment.
After his banishment, his mood had to become cautious and cautious, and he seemed to sense that his calamity was as high and unfathomable as a mountain spring, and he was wary of speaking out lightly. Because someone is putting his ear to the wall, ready to grab him by the handle and slander him. He seemed to have learned a little painfully, hoping that others would not offend him again, but also feeling disheartened that the future was uncertain and his future was bleak.
Those yawudo were merry, and flew to the nest in peace. People live well, but I am the only one who suffers from disaster. What sin do I have against the heavens? What is my crime? Sorrow fills my heart, what can I do about it?
The flat avenue is covered with green grass everywhere. Deep sorrow is in my heart, and sorrow is like a club. I lay down in my clothes and lamented, and sorrow made my face old. Sadness fills my heart, and I have a headache and I am really anxious.
Seeing the mulberry tree and the tree, I was respectful and loving. I always respect my father, and I love my mother all the time. There is no outer hair of the fur fur, and no inner lining of the fur fur. God gave birth to me now, where is my good luck?
The willow trees are really dense, and the cicadas on them are chirping. There is a bottomless pool of water, and the reeds around it are really dense. I'm like a drifting boat, I don't know where I'm drifting. Sorrow fills my heart, and I don't have time to take a nap and think about it.
It was so light to see the wild deer running fast, raising its four hooves. Listen to the pheasant crying in the morning, and the male begging the female. I am like the sick tree, so sick that it can't grow branches. Sorrow is filled in the heart, and no one knows?
Behold the hare caught in the net, and some people have put it away. On the way, he met a dead man, and someone buried him. Why is my father's intentions so cruel? Sorrow fills my heart, and tears fall to my eyes.
My father's slander is like letting someone persuade him to drink. My father was not kind and did not think things through. Trees must be pulled with ropes, and woodcutters should be used to cut down the grain. Let go of the real sinners, and the sin will be made up by me.
If it is not high, it is not a mountain, and if it is not deep, it is not a water spring. A gentleman can't speak lightly, and someone has his ear against the wall. Don't tear down my fish beam, don't pull my fish cage. I have nowhere to go, how can I have time to worry about the future!
"Clever Words": Those who enter the slander and those who listen to the slander
A doctor of the Zhou Dynasty, suffering from slander, in desperation, began to denounce the brazenness of those who entered the slander, exposing their despicable acts of slandering and harming the country.
He cried out in pain: "High and far in the sky, just like the parents of men, why have I suffered such a great calamity without sin!" Then he began to plead pale and desperate: Although the sky has exerted its might, but I really did nothing wrong, the sky blamed me too negligently, I am indeed innocent. He seemed so angry that he couldn't even clear himself of the truth, but he just shouted in the face of the sky, which is typical of those who have been wronged and have nowhere to turn for snow.
After learning from the painful experience, he also began to deeply reflect on and expose the cause of slander and the occurrence of trouble. In his view, slanderers are terrible and hateful, but the root cause of slander and chaos lies not in the slanderers but in the slanderers, because slander always works through the listeners of slanderers. Slander is like **, everyone knows its toxicity, but it can bring people the illusory pleasure in front of them. Therefore, if you don't take precautions, once you get involved, you will gradually develop a sense of dependence, and eventually you will be harmed by it, and it will be too late to regret it.
The unique situation of the Son of Heaven and his noble position made him inherently lacking this immunity to slander. If we compare the courtiers under the Son of Heaven, the slanderous ministers are like the cunning rabbit, the loyal ministers are like hunting dogs, and the cunning rabbit only knows how to jump in front of the Son of Heaven, and does nothing and even brings disaster to the country and the people. What they say to the Son of Heaven is comfortable for the Son of Heaven to listen to, so it is easy to deceive some ignorant monarchs. And the hound is a loyal and good companion of the owner, will not speak sweetly, and may even endure humiliation, and will capture this cunning rabbit at a critical moment.
Slanderers are insidious, hypocritical, and ugly-looking, and they always disregard the safety of the people and society for their own interests, and they are plotting and plotting to put the virtuous and virtuous people to death as soon as possible. However, the sinister heart shows rhetoric and meanness and meekness. In front of the Son of Heaven, they boasted, spoke big words, and spoke skillfully. But as hateful as slanderers are, the ruler who listens to slander is more responsible than the slanderer.
Slanderers always hide on the side of the weeds, like ghosts with insinuations. However, no matter how rampant this villain is, as mentioned above, the cunning rabbit will eventually be replenished by the hounds. Because villains are always short-sighted, and while gaining personal benefits, they often send themselves to a dead end. This doctor not only profoundly exposed the ugliness of the slanderers, but also soberly saw the shameful fate of the slanderers.
Slander misleads the country, slander confuses politics:
The heavens are high and far away, like the father and mother of men. There is no sin and no sin, but it is difficult to be spared from great calamity. The heavens have been in full swing, but I'm not wrong. The heavens are not negligent, but I am indeed innocent.
When the plague was first born, slander was tolerated. When the trouble happened again, the gentleman obeyed. When a gentleman hears slander, he is angry and reprimanded, and the trouble is not serious if it stops quickly; If a gentleman can be virtuous, the chaos will be over.
The gentleman repeatedly made new alliances, and the troubles grew. The gentleman believed in the thief, and the woe was so violent that he went violent. Thieves speak sweetly, and evil is nourished by it. How can a slanderer fulfill his duty, but he can only bring disaster to the king.
The majestic palace and the temple, the gentleman built it. The system of rules and regulations is organized, and the saints make it to the table. If others want to slander, I can guess and predict it. The cunning rabbit jumped and scurried, and was killed by the hound.
Delicate and beautiful trees, cultivated by the gentleman himself. Spread the rumor back and forth, and discern the truth from the falsehood in your heart. Boastful and big, it doesn't take much effort to spit out in your mouth. Clever words are as beautiful as drums, and brazen behavior is low.
What kind of person is that? Inhabit the riverbank by the water and grass. There is no courage and courage, just to create opportunities for trouble. Sores on your legs and swollen feet, where is your courage? There are so many tricks, how many of your accomplices are left?
