"Dry Foot": King Wen of Zhou employs people

The foothills of the dry mountains are covered with dense hazel and hazel trees, and the reason why the trees are so lush is because they are moistened by the best. The people of the Zhou nationality could enjoy a harmonious life, and they were educated by the virtues of King Wen. The king is blessed because he is happy, and he is even more happy because he is blessed. During the sacrifice, the white jade and yellow wine set off each other, the colors are bright, and King Wen of Zhou was blessed by worshipping his ancestors sincerely. He understands the importance of cultivating talents, "the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high and the birds fly", and King Wen let outstanding talents give full play to their talents. How can a monarch who is happy and easy not train new people and let them carry forward the virtues of their ancestors!

At the scene of the sacrifice, the wine is poured on the Guizan, the white grass is spread in front of the god's seat, the wine is poured on the grass, and the wine seeps into the thatch, just like the god has drunk. At the same time, the red bull was slaughtered as a sacrifice. People cut down the branches of the oak tree and the oak tree, pile them on the altar as firewood, and burn the jade silk and sacrifices on the pyre, and the wisps of smoke rise into the sky, symbolizing communication with the gods in the sky, and the world's devout reverence for the gods and prayers. For such a monarch, the heavenly spirits of heaven and ancestors and kings will naturally give Jingfu. The dense kudzu vines spread endlessly on the branches and trunks, just as the heavens would forever bless the Zhou monarchs.

This is a song sung at a large banquet, a poem that praises King Wen of Zhou for worshipping his ancestors and blessings:

Looking at the bottom of the dry mountains over there, how dense the hazel trees are. Harmony is easy to be a gentleman, and it is easy to seek blessings by harmony.

The Gui Chan wine vessel is bright and delicate, and the golden spoon is full of wine. He is easy to be a gentleman, and the blessings from heaven are joyful.

The eagle spreads its wings and flies into the blue sky, and the fish wagging their tails and leaping into the abyss. He Le is easy to be a good gentleman, how can he not cultivate young people.

The mellow sweet wine was poured, and the red bull was ready to sacrifice. Use it for sacrifices, and use it for great blessings.

The oak trees were so luxuriant that the people cut them down and burned them to sacrifice to the gods. He is a gentleman, and the gods are coming to comfort you.

Kudzu vines grow everywhere, spreading and entwining around branches and trunks. He is easy to be a gentleman, and he is not evil or treacherous.

"Siqi": Self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world

The three mothers of the Zhou family - King Wen's grandmother Tai Jiang, King Wen's biological mother Tai Ren and King Wen's wife Tai Ji. King Wen was able to become a saint because his mother was also a virtuous mother. King Wen honored his ancestors, and the traditional virtues were fully embodied in King Wen, so the ancestors had no grievances and no pain, and blessed King Wen. King Wen set an example for his wife, so that his wife was also virtuous like himself; Then King Wen set an example for his brothers, so that his brothers were also influenced by virtue; Eventually, this virtue was extended to the family state. This is probably the meaning of "self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world".

King Wen set an example everywhere in his family and in the temple. Don't say that because it's dimly lit, no one can see me, and then you can do whatever you want. The wonder of ghosts and gods lies in the fact that there is no body, everywhere, and there will be ghosts and gods in the dark. In other words, even if King Wen is deep in a secluded place, he is cautious, rather than doing whatever he wants, because he feels that no matter how secluded the place is, there are the eyes of the gods watching. King Wen maintained his beautiful temperament, which can be described as tireless.

If the above is about King Wen's self-cultivation, then we can take a look at King Wen's governance. King Wen is good at cultivating virtue, so the world is peaceful, there is no trouble of Xirong outside, and there is no worry about disease inside. Even things that have never been heard of are dealt with in accordance with the law. Although there is no one to advise, King Wen can still listen to good words. King Wen is also diligent in cultivating talents, ensuring that King Wen's virtues are passed on from generation to generation.

Graceful and dignified is Tairen, a good mother of King Wen of Zhou. The virtuous lady is Taijiang, the wife of the royal family lives in Zhoujing. Taiji's reputation can be inherited, and many boys are prosperous.

King Wen is filial to his ancestors, the ancestral gods have no complaints, and the ancestral gods have no pain. The model wife is a model, and the model brothers are the same, and the governance of the family and the country is prosperous.

It's really harmonious in the family, and it's really respectful in the temple. There is also a divine prison in the dark, and the self-cultivation is tireless and peaceful.

Now Xijon is not harmed, and the disease does not harm the people. The unheard is also appropriate, even those who have no advice hear.

Nowadays, adults are virtuous, and future children are edified. King Wen is tireless in educating people, and the scholars are all handsome.
