Chapter 16 The Men Shall Be Teachers
Hanzhang took the book handed by Sister A, and saw that it was "Liutao", and his heart was very difficult, this book was talked about a little by the Taifu, but because it was obscure and difficult to understand, Hanzhang did not understand the essentials, so the Taifu said that he would study it again in two years...... But today, Sister A said very reasonably, although he is only seven years old, he is the only prince of Hengguo, and he is the pillar of the family.
Thinking of this, Hanzhang opened the book head-on.
Hanzhang looked at it for a while, then looked up and asked Ning Zhi: Brother master, the book says that to govern the world, you must be quiet and quiet, and the softness is set first, this sentence is incomprehensible?
"In this way, I try to answer for you, the meaning of this sentence is to want the monarch to be quiet and serene, to be gentle and moderate, not to be anxious for quick success because of the emptiness of the treasury, to be anxious for the people, not to be proud and complacent because of the peace of the country and the people, and to be impartial and impartial in dealing with court affairs and civil affairs." Ning Zhi patiently explained to the prince.
Hanzhang nodded: Thank you, Taifu.
Ning Zhi was surprised: Why did the prince call Ning Zhi Taifu?
"Taifu said, if someone gives you the wisdom of a word, Erbai, he will be a teacher, not to mention that the master brother taught me two sentences, Hu is not a teacher?"
Ning Zhi touched Hanzhang's head, and was very happy in his heart.
After watching it for more than an hour, Hanzhang went to a puzzled place and asked Ning Zhidao, "Brother master, here: King Wen asked the prince, and King Wen said: "What can I do if I love the people?" Taigong said: "Benefit but don't harm, success and don't lose, don't kill when you're born, don't take away from it, be happy and don't be bitter, happy but don't be angry." "If the people do not lose their duties, they will benefit; If the time is not lost, it will be done; Provincial punishment is born; Thin endowment is with it; The thrifty palace room is happy; If the officials are not harsh, they are happy. If the people fail to do their job, they will be harmed, if the peasants lose their time, they will be defeated, and if they are not guilty, they will be killed......"
"What does this mean?"
But see Ning Zhi thought about it and said: This paragraph is indeed more redundant, in fact, the reason to say is very simple, it is said that King Wen asked the prince how to stabilize the people's hearts, if I borrow this sentence from the third chapter of Teng Wengong in "Mencius" to explain to you: the people are the way, those who have constant production have perseverance, those who have no permanent production have perseverance, there is no perseverance, there is no perseverance, let go of evil and extravagance, all of them are enough, this sentence is the same as you said this paragraph, the meaning is the same, but it is easier to understand.
"I understand, Mencius I have finished learning, the meaning of Taigong's statement is actually the same as the meaning expressed by Mencius, the characteristics of the people are that there will be a fixed moral pursuit after having fixed assets, there will be no fixed moral pursuit without stable assets, once there is no moral belief, will be debauched, do all evil, so Jiang Taigong also means this."
Ning Zhi nodded: The prince is very smart, and the ultimate goal of giving all the blessings to the people is to let them have stable assets and live peacefully.
The two discussed with relish, even Princess Qianqian was infected by their atmosphere, and finally raised her head from the pile of books, glanced at them, and just happened to be looking at the princess, their eyes met, Princess Qianqian smiled slightly, grateful to Ning Zhi for her sincere teaching to Hanzhang......
The princess's smile was like a flood beast, almost drowning Ning Zhi, and the hidden weapon in his sleeve almost fell out again......
The two of them read a book, and they would rather read with them, and the three of them saw that late at night, the moonlight turned into hoarfrost and spilled into the desk from the window pavilion, and a slight coolness appeared between the fingers of Princess Qianqian, and the sound of hunger sounded from her belly, Princess Qianqian looked up at the food box resting on the corner of the table, and called Azhang Ningzhi to have dinner together.
