A negative example of tolerance

In BC 1 year and BC 8 17, Duke Wu of Lu took his eldest son Gong Kuo and his second son Gong Zi to see Zhou Xuanwang. This obviously violates the etiquette. After all, the eldest son is the legal heir, and it is Lu's own business to establish a prince. It's obviously a disaster for Lu to replace Prince Lu and ignore the existence of his eldest son, Guo Si.

Ask Zhong: "Who else is suitable to be the king of Lu?" However, as Zhong said, the intervention in the monarch of Lu had a very bad influence in the world. Many vassal states thought that Zhou Xuanwang himself didn't obey the etiquette, so they refused to worship him again.

2. Pang Juan is narrow-minded. He didn't want Sun Bin to be better than him and be killed in the end. Zhou Yu is narrow-minded. He refused to outdo Zhuge Liang and tried every means to plot against him. Finally Zhuge Liang vomited blood and died. Cixi played chess, and someone ate his horse. She killed the other family and was abused after her death. This is the result of being narrow-minded. If you bid farewell to your narrow mind and tolerate others with a tolerant attitude, you will win the trust of others and achieve yourself.

On one occasion, Chu Zhuangwang invited all the ministers to drink together and invited his concubines to entertain him. When the wind blew out the candle, a military commander got drunk and pulled the princess's skirt rudely, but Chu Zhuangwang tolerated him with a broad mind and saved him skillfully. The military commander is grateful to fight bravely in the next battle. This is the value of tolerance.

4. Liu Xiu defeated Wang Lang and invaded Handan. When consulting the official documents of the former dynasty, he found a large number of official documents that please Wang Lang, insult and even plot to assassinate Liu Xiu. However, Liu Xiu did not listen to the minister's dissuasion, and all the houses were set on fire. He said: "If we pursue it, it will definitely cause people's panic and even become our sworn enemies. If you can tolerate them, you can turn enemies into friends and strengthen your team. " It was Liu Xiu's tolerance that finally made him an emperor and unified the whole country.

Qi Huangong, the king of Qi, was an innocent father, but he was a very successful monarch. During his 43 years in office (685-643 BC), Guan Zhong, Qiu Peng and others were highly valued, and the rule of law and politics were practiced. They were eclectic and respected as kings, becoming ministers of nine kings and making Qi the overlord.

In the forty-third year of Huan Gong, in the autumn of 643, Qi Huangong was critically ill. After learning the news, the sons attacked each other outside the palace, and Qi Huangong was left unattended, so he died in 10 this year. Qi was the first superpower to dominate the Five Mountains in the Spring and Autumn Period. However, after Qi Huangong's death, due to the dispute between the five sons, the hegemony was gone forever.

Extended data:

Tolerance is fierce, fierceness is lenient, and politics is harmonious. The will is as strong as iron and the measure is as big as the sea. Only by respecting others can people be respected. People who can't tolerate others don't deserve to be tolerated by others. -(Russia) Turgenev

A great man has two hearts: one is bleeding and the other is tolerant. -(Lebanese) Ji Bolun loves his lover, and people will always love him; People who respect others will always respect others. -Mencius and Li Lou, Second Edition.

The famous writer Long Fang once quoted it in his famous book Tolerance.

The philosopher Kant said: "Anger is to punish yourself with the mistakes of others." The elegant Kant probably won't have a storm, and his mood will always be clear. If others make mistakes, we will be furious, so it is our own fault. Modern Dale Carnegie does not advocate tit-for-tat. He said: "there is only one simple way to really hate others, and that is to give full play to their strengths." Hating each other cannot be cruel.
