Zi said to Zi Gong, "Which is better, you or Hui?" Say, "How dare you look back after giving it?" . . . What is the reason why Zi Gong thinks he is inferior to Yan Hui? Confucius' answer

Zi Gong thinks that Yan Hui is rich in knowledge, and he can understand what he sees by analogy, which makes him feel that he is behind Yan Hui, and even Yan Hui can't see his back, so Zi Gong thinks that he is not as good as Yan Hui.

Confucius directly answered "just not as good as ah", which shows that Confucius is an enlightened, true and discerning teacher.
