Translation of ancient Chinese: One person crosses a well.

Interpretation of crossing a well by one person;

In the Song Dynasty, there was a family named Ding. There was no well at home, so they had to go out to fetch water to water the distant fields. One of them was sent to fetch water. I often stay outside alone. When his family dug a well, Shi Ding told others, "My family dug a well and got a man." The listener sent a message: "Shi Ding dug a well and dug a man."

People in the capital are talking about this matter, so that the monarch of Song State can know about it. Song Guojun sent someone to ask Shi Ding about the situation. Shi Ding replied: "Saving the labor of an idle person is not digging a living person in a well." It's better not to listen to such rumors.

The Song family had no wells to irrigate and often ran away from home. His family crossed the well and told people, "I crossed the well alone." The person who heard about it said, "A man has gone down the well in Shi Ding." The people of China know that they have heard from Song Jun. Ding asked. Shi Ding said to him, "If you want to be alone, you have to be alone in the well." Smell it if you want, and don't smell it if you don't smell it.

This article comes from Lv Chunqiu in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Extended data writing background:

Lv Buwei, surnamed Jiang and Lu, was born in Puyang (now hua county, Henan). At the end of the Warring States Period, he was a businessman, politician, thinker, prime minister of Qin State and grandson of Jiang Ziya XXIII. In his early years, he did business in Yangzhai, helping the proton expatriates of Qin to return to China and acceded to the throne. Become the king of Qin Zhuang Xiang, worship as the prime minister, seal a letter, and eat 100 thousand households in Luoyang, Henan Province.

Among the works of pre-Qin philosophers, Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals is classified as a miscellaneous school. In fact, this "miscellaneous" is not chaotic, but eclectic, absorbing the strengths of many schools and running through it with its own leading ideology.

This book takes Huang Lao's thought as the core, "Confucianism and Mohism, the method of combining names", and advocates the rule of inaction under the centralized monarchy, letting nature take its course and governing by doing nothing. Governing the country with this idea is very beneficial to easing social contradictions, enabling the people to recuperate and restore economic development.

Lu Chunqiu, compiled by Lv Buwei, is not only the guiding principle of governing the country, but also provides a ruling reference for Qin Shihuang, who is about to take charge. Unfortunately, due to Lv Buwei's personal fault, Qin Shihuang abandoned this book, which did not play its due role. The value of Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals has been gradually recognized by later generations, and it has become an important material for understanding the thoughts of the warring states philosophers.

Send troops to attack next week, Zhao and Wei, and set up Sanchuan County, Taiyuan County and Dongjun County respectively, which made great contributions to the cause of Ying Zheng, king of Qin, annexing the six countries. After the death of King Zhuang Xiang, he welcomed Prince Ying Zheng to the throne, worshipped him as the prime minister, and respected him as the "Guanzhong", ruling the world. Influenced by the rebellion of Lao Ai Group, he went home, and the whole family was exiled to Shu County, drinking zhenniao on the way.

Enlightenment of the article:

Everything must be investigated and carefully identified before we can find out the truth. Hearing is empty, seeing is believing. Rumors are often untrue, and only by careful observation, research and reasoning can we get the real answer. Don't believe in rumors and blindly follow others, otherwise you will make jokes and the truth will be spread beyond recognition.

Introduction to the article:

"One person can dig a well" comes from Lv Chunqiu, which means that after digging a well, one person's manpower can be obtained without sending someone to fetch water from the outside well; Outsiders misunderstood the meaning and thought it was "crossing the well to get the living" and spread rumors everywhere.

Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals, also known as Lu Lan, is the representative work of pre-Qin sage written by Qin Prime Minister at the end of the Warring States Period, with 26 volumes and 65,438+060 articles. It was included in the first volume of the seventh grade Chinese book published by Hubei Education Publishing House, and it was renamed "A Man Driving Through a Well". It was included in the new Chinese textbook of People's Education Publishing House (version 20 16) (it belongs to four fables with two Aesop's fables and his work "Worrying about the country and the people").

As a twelve-year, eight-year and six-year theory, Lv's Spring and Autumn Annals focuses on drawing on the strengths of many schools, taking Taoism as the main body, and accepting the theories of Yin and Yang, Confucianism, Mohism, and military agriculture.

But the main purpose belongs to Taoism. Therefore, Hanshu Yiwenzhi listed him as a saint. Gaoyou said that the book "Lv Chunqiu" was "decent, with morality as the standard and inaction as the discipline", indicating that the earliest annotators had pointed out the characteristics of Taoism as the leading thought of Lv Chunqiu.

Lu Chunqiu is an important work at the end of the Warring States Period. It was completed around 239 BC, just before Qin unified the six countries. His book "is basically based on Taoism, taking the strengths of each family and abandoning its shortcomings, so it can become a family statement?" . "

It is one of the representative works of Taoism in Qin and Han Dynasties. Lv Buwei was a famous figure in Qin at the end of the Warring States Period. Lu has made great contributions to helping foreigners who have been exiled to Zhao set up their own offices. After the foreigner succeeded to the throne of Qin Zhuang, he was appointed as the Prime Minister of Qin State.

During the Warring States Period, Wei had a letter to Ling Jun, Chu had Chun Shen Jun, Zhao had Ping Yuanjun, and Qi had Meng Changjun. Everyone was very polite and made friends. In this respect, we must strive for a high and low level. Lv Buwei couldn't think that Qin was so powerful, so he also recruited talented people with generous treatment, up to 3,000 people.

Unlike Four Children, Lv Buwei does not attach much importance to brave men and women, but attaches great importance to literary talent. Facts have proved that Lv Buwei has his own views. He has always been good at strategy and despises those brave people who are simple-minded.

Besides, the Qin army is like a cloud, and its military strength is strong. Another reason is that there is no need to raise people and kill people. At that time, there were many eloquent people who wrote books, which were widely circulated, not only world-famous, but also spread to the afterlife, which will go down in history forever, which especially made Lv Buwei jealous.

Businessman Lv Buwei has no condition to write a book, but he can realize his ambition and desire with the help of these masters who are good at writing and writing. At that time, talented people from various vassal States came forth in large numbers, such as Xun Qing and his colleagues, who wrote books and made statements, which were popular all over the world.

It is worth mentioning that this masterpiece, written in the Warring States period, has preserved many ancient anecdotes and thoughts, which has certain reference value. Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals is based on Taoist thought, which combines the theories of pre-Qin philosophers and embodies the advantages and characteristics of Taoist thought.

Although Lv Buwei borrowed the handwriting of Lv Chunqiu from passers-by, and mainly used the light of others to enhance his image, he did a great thing in cultural undertakings. Lv Buwei himself thought it included the facts of the universe through the ages, so he called it Lv Chunqiu. The story of "carving a boat for a sword" comes from Lu Chunqiu Cha Jin.
