There was a man named Feng Xuan in the State of Qi. His family was poor and he couldn't support himself. The trustee asked Meng Changjun that he was willing to take refuge in this door to make a living. Meng Changjun asked, "What are the guests' hobbies?" Answer: "The guests have no hobbies." Ask again: "What is the guest's skill? Answer: "The guest has no ability. Meng Changjun smiled and agreed to take him in, saying, "All right." . "People close to Meng Changjun think that Meng Changjun looks down on Feng Xuan and gives him poor food.

Soon, Feng Xuan leaned against the post, waved his sword and sang, "Long sword, let's go home. There is no fish for dinner. " The person in charge briefed Meng Changjun on this situation. Meng Changjun said, "Give him fish and treat him like a fisherman." Soon after, Feng Huan sang with a sword: "Long sword! Let's go back, there is no car when we go out. " People around him laughed at him and told Meng Changjun about it. Meng Changjun said: "Prepare horses and chariots for him, according to the way of treating passengers." So Feng Xuan got on the bus, raised his sword, went to see his friend and said, "Meng Changjun respects me as a guest." Soon after, Feng Xuan played his sword again and sang, "Long sword! Let's go home, there is nothing to support our families. " People around him hate him and think he is an insatiable person. Meng Changjun asked, "Does Mr. Feng have any relatives?" The people around you replied, "There is an old mother at home." Meng Changjun sent someone to feed his family, so that he didn't want anything, so Feng Xuan stopped singing. Later, Meng Changjun took out his account book and asked the diners: "Who is familiar with accounting, can you help me collect debts from Yi Xue?" Feng Xuan signed his name and wrote down the word "OK". Meng Changjun was very surprised and asked, "Who is this man?" The people around you replied, "That's the man who sang' Long Sword, Let's go home'". Meng Changjun smiled and said, "He is really capable. I feel sorry for him. I haven't seen him yet. " So, when Feng Xuan was invited to meet Meng Changjun, Meng Changjun apologized to Feng Xuan and said, "I was too busy, too tired, too worried, too confused, too confused, too stupid and too cowardly to get away from my business, so I offended my husband. Thank you, sir. Are you really willing to go to Yi Xue to help me collect debts? " Feng Xuan said, "Yes." So he prepared his chariots and horses, packed his bags, put away his shackles and set off on his way. Before leaving, Feng Xuan and Meng Changjun said goodbye and said, "Do you want to buy something back after collecting the debt?" Meng Changjun said, "I'll buy whatever is lacking at home. Feng Xuan then drove to Yi Xue and sent a housekeeper to call those who should pay their debt check bonds. When the bonds were examined one by one, Feng Xuan mistakenly conveyed Meng Changjun's orders, gave all the debts to the people, and burned all the bonds. Everyone shouted "Long live".

So, he pranced and flogged all the way back to Qidu, and sought audience with Meng Changjun in the morning. Meng Changjun was surprised to see him so soon, so he put on his clothes and hat to meet him and said, "Have all the debts been collected? Why so fast? " Feng Xuan said: "All the debts have been collected." "What did you buy?" Feng Xuan said, "You said,' I'll buy whatever is lacking at home.' I think your palace is full of treasures, dogs and horses are stables, and the front steps are full of beautiful women. What your family lacks is only righteousness! I bought you righteousness, and Meng Changjun said, "What happened to buying righteousness? Feng Xuan said, "You have a little Yi Xue. You don't take care of the people here as your own sons, but you squeeze benefits from them like a businessman. Under the guise of your order, I gave all the debts to the people and burned all the bonds, so the people shouted' Long live'. This is the' righteousness' I bought for you. Meng Changjun was very unhappy and said, "Yes, forget it!"

A year later, someone spoke ill of Meng Changjun in front of the King of Qi, who said to Meng Changjun, "You are the minister of my late king, and I dare not take the minister of my late king as a courtier." Meng Changjun had to return to his fief, Yi Xue. When it was less than 100 miles from Yi Xue, people helped the old and the young and met Meng Changjun on the way. Meng Changjun turned to Feng Xuan and said, "Now I see the justice that your husband bought for me." Feng Xuan said, "The sly rabbit has three caves, and it can only avoid death. Now you only have a cave, so you can't sleep well. Let me dig two more holes for you. " So Meng Changjun prepared 50 cars for Feng Xuan, and the king's gold weighed 100 Jin. He went to see Wei and said to him, "The King of Qi exiled his ministers, and greeted his princes first, so that the country would be rich and strong." At that time, Wang Wei gave up waiting for Meng Changjun, appointed the former prime minister as a general, and sent a special envoy to meet Meng Changjun with one thousand kilograms of gold and 100 cars. Feng Xuan went ahead and told Meng Changjun, "Daughter is a gift; Hundreds of cars are the treatment of senior envoys. Qi will know this situation. " Wei's envoys paid their respects three times, but they all declined politely.

When the King of Qi heard about it, the monarch and his subjects were very afraid, so he sent a teacher with a thousand pounds of gold, two luxury carriages, a sword and a personal letter from the King of Qi to apologize to Meng Changjun, saying, "I was not good, and I was greatly hurt by the gods. I listened to the courtiers and offended you. I am nothing, but I hope you will take good care of the ancestral temple of the late king and come back to govern the country! Feng Xuan said to Meng Changjun, "I hope you can ask for the ritual vessels used by the late king when he built the ancestral temple in Yi Xue. After the ancestral temple was built, Feng Xuan returned to Meng Changjun and said, "The three caves have been built, so you can live a happy life with confidence." . "

Meng Changjun served as prime minister for decades, without any disaster, because Feng Xuan advised him.

Meng Changjun wants to form a vertical alliance. Gong Sunhong, a Qi man, said to him, "You might as well send someone to get to know the situation of the king of Qin first. If the king of Qin is a wise monarch like an emperor, I'm afraid you can't be a courtier. What are the conditions for organizing a vertical alliance against Qin? If the king of Qin is an incompetent monarch, it is not too late for you to organize a vertical alliance to fight! " Meng Changjun said, OK, please go running. "Gong Sun Hong said," Yes, sir. " He went to Qin with ten chariots.

Hearing that Qin had come to Qin, he was going to insult him with words. When the public saw him, he asked, "How big is Xue Gongtian's fief? Gong said, "Fiona Fang is a hundred Li. Zhao Haoqi said with a smile: "I have a thousand miles of land in Fiona Fang, and I dare not confront others." . Now Meng Changjun has only 100 miles of land in Fiona Fang, so you want to fight me. Is this ok? Palace Sun Hong replied, "Meng Changjun respects the wise, but the king doesn't respect the wise. The king of Qin said, "What if you respect the wise?" Gong said: "As long as it is in line with justice, even if you don't be the minister of the son of heaven or the friend of the vassal, you will ignore it and succeed." Even a gentleman should do his duty. "I have no ambition and I don't want to be a person. For such a person, he is the third. Speaking of governing the country, he can be the teacher of Guan Zhong and Shang Yang. His monarch loves the principle of justice and listens to the journey of justice. He can make the monarch achieve hegemony and the great cause of kings. He is the fifth such person. If the king, as the king of horsemen, insults a diplomatic envoy, he will perish together with you. People like me are the seventh. " Zhao Haoqi smiled and apologized and said, "Why did you do this? I'm just talking to you. Meng Changjun and I are very friendly. I hope you can tell me this in front of Meng Changjun. " Gong Sunhong said, "Yes."

Gongsun can be regarded as a mission. Zhao Haoqi of Qin is the king of a big country, and Meng Changjun is the master of Qin. Gong defended the justice of Qin without being humiliated, so he was a talented messenger.

Lu Zhonglian said to Meng Changjun, "What you call a good scholar is actually not a good scholar. Yongmenzi adopted Chili and Yang Dezi adopted XX. Food and clothing are the same as them, and they all work hard for Yongmenzi and Yang Dezi. Nowadays, your family is richer than Mr. Yong Menzi and Mr. Yang Dezi, but none of the scholars you adopted did their best for you. " Meng Changjun said, "I have never met such scholars as Jiao Yi and others. If I can get scholars like them, why can't I do my part? " Lu Zhonglian said, "There are many horses in your stable. They wear gorgeous horse clothes and eat beans and millet. Can there be horses like Kirin and Jill? " All the beautiful women in your harem wear plain silk and fine linen and eat white rice and lean meat. Are there any beauties like Heshi? Beautiful horses use modern people, why do literati have to use the ancients? So, I said,' What you call a good scholar is actually not a good scholar.' "。

Meng Changjun was expelled from the capital of Qi and later returned. Tan Shizi, a Qi man, met him at the border of the capital and asked Meng Changjun, "Is there anyone in the scholar-officials of Qi that you hate?" Meng Changjun said, "Yes." "Are you satisfied with killing them?" Meng Changjun said, "Yes." Tan Shizi said: "Things always have the inevitable result of their development, and truth also has its inevitable law of development. Do you know? " Meng Changjun said, "I don't know." Tan Shizi said: "People always die, which is the inevitable result of the development of things. If a person is rich and powerful, others will move closer to him; Poverty is low, and others will stay away from him. This is the inevitable law of the development of truth. Let me take the market as an example; The market is crowded in the morning and empty at night. This is not because people like the market in the morning and hate the market in the evening. Just because there are things people need in the market in the morning, everyone goes there. There was nothing in the market at night, so everyone left there. I hope you don't resent the scholar-officials of Qi. " Therefore, Meng Changjun crossed out the names of 500 people he hated from the book. Don't mention it again.

Qi Xuanwang called Yan Gang, a Qi man, and said, "Yan Gang, come forward!" ! "Yan Gang also said," Your Majesty, come forward! " Wang Xuan was very unhappy. The left and right ministers said, "The king is a monarch and you are a minister; The king said, "Yan Gang, come forward!" You also said,' Your Majesty, come forward!' Is it okay? "Yan Gang replied:" I went forward to be a snob, and the king went forward to be a corporal; It is better to let the king be virtuous than to let me go with the flow. King Xuan frowned and said, "Is it a king or a scholar?" ? "Yan Yan replied? : "A gentleman is respectable, but a king is not." Xuanwang said, "Is there any reason? Yan Gang said, "Yes, when Qin attacked Qi, the king of Qin gave an order that anyone who dared to chop wood within fifty paces of Liu's cemetery would be sentenced to death without pardon. He also ordered:' Whoever can cut off the head of the King of Qi will be rewarded with a city and 22,000 yuan. From this point of view, the head of the living king is not as good as the tomb of the dead. "Wang Xuan listened to, without saying a word, very unhappy.

All the officials said, "Yan Gang, come here! Come here! The king owns the land of a great country. There are thousands of stone clocks and stone clock stands; Scholars from all over the world came to serve the king of Qi. People with eloquence and wisdom have to come to Qi to display their talents. Quartet governors dare not defy; The king of qi has everything he wants; People all over the country support it. But now, the so-called nobles are just ordinary people, such as ordinary people and' walking', all in the countryside; Those who are waiting are just janitors in the alleys of remote places. It is enough for a scholar to be so cheap. "

Yan Gang replied: "No.I heard that in the ancient Dayu era, governors had various states. Why is this happening? It is because they have mastered a set of methods of emphasizing education, governing the country and loving the people, attaching importance to scholars and being good at exerting their talents. Therefore, Shun Di was born in a peasant family, made a fortune in the backcountry, and eventually became the son of heaven. When we arrived in Shang Tang, there were 3000 vassals. But now, there are only twenty-four lonely people From this point of view, isn't this caused by the policies of "getting rid of scholars" and "losing scholars"? If the princes are gradually killed and destroyed, by then, they just want to be janitors in the alley. You don't say! Therefore, doesn't the Book of Changes say this:' If the rulers above don't pay attention to scholars, don't make good use of their talents, and don't do practical things in a down-to-earth way, they just like to cheat and flaunt their false reputation, and they will inevitably walk into the road of arrogance and extravagance; Pride and luxury will inevitably lead to disaster. Therefore, if it has no practical effect, but just likes empty names, the territory will shrink day by day and the national strength will weaken day by day; People who want to be happy without virtue are bound to be embarrassed; Those who just want to enjoy their salary without meritorious service are bound to be insulted. All this will inevitably lead to serious disasters. Therefore,' a good man who likes to work is definitely unable to establish a career; Without the empty words of the yogi, his wish cannot be realized after all. "This is the inevitable result of those who love hollow reputation, grandiose, and ineffective in governing the country and loving the people. So Yao has nine assistants, Shun has seven friends, Yu has five friends and Tang has three assistants. Since ancient times, no one has ever been able to make achievements without the help of scholars. Therefore, the monarch should not be ashamed to ask for advice from others frequently, nor should he be ashamed to learn from others. Therefore, words and deeds conform to social laws and have both ability and political integrity, but they can spread their fame to later generations, such as Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang,. Therefore, it is said:' those who truly get the Tao and the Dharma can dominate everything.' How can an enlightened person who can best see the origin of things in the world, understand the changes of things in the world and understand things thoroughly be weakened, embarrassed and humiliated? Laozi said:' The high must be based on the low, and the high must be based on the bottom. Therefore, Marquis claimed to be lonely, widowed and ignorant. Isn't this the fundamental reason why you are cheap? Isn't it? The so-called loneliness means that people are in an embarrassing and humble position. And Hou and Wang claimed to be lonely. Isn't that the proof that Hou and Wang lived in seclusion and attached importance to scholars? Yao Chuan was located in Shun, and Shun Chuan was located in Yu. He was appointed as a generation of wise kings. This is precisely because they know the value of scholars. "

Xuanwang said, "Alas! How can a gentleman insult him casually? I'm asking for trouble. I didn't know what the gentleman said until now, and now I understand that disrespect for scholars is a villain's behavior. I hope you can accept me as a student. I hope Mr. Wang Can will associate with me. I will give you a banquet. I have high-grade chariots and horses for you when I go out, and my wife and children wear luxurious clothes.

Yan Gang declined politely, saying, "Rough jade was born in the mountains. After being processed by jade artisans, its value is not precious, but its original appearance no longer exists. The scholar was born in a remote rural area and was appointed after recommendation and selection, enjoying the position of Lu. He didn't disrespect or highlight, but his spirit and essence were hurt. I hope to go back to my hometown, eat meat, take a leisurely walk and take a car, and enjoy it without violating the royal power. It is your majesty who gives orders now; Yan's greatest feature is loyalty and frankness. My main point has already been said. I hope you will allow me to go back and return to my hometown safely. " So he thanked him again and left.

Yan Gang can be said to be satisfied. He gave up his fame and fortune, resigned from his post and returned to his hometown, restoring the true colors of the people, so that he was not insulted for life.

Mr. Wang Dou came to visit Qi Xuanwang, and Wang Xuan sent someone to invite Wang Dou. Wang Dou said: "I visited the king because I love power;" Your Majesty greeted me with Corporal Lixian. What does the king think? "Give the report to Wang Dou. Xuanwang said, "Let Mr. Wang come in later, and I'll meet him." So Xuan ran to the door to meet Wang Dou and came in with him. Wang Xuan said: "I have inherited the great cause of my predecessor and have the ability to govern this country. I heard that Mr. Wang Can criticized people bluntly. " Wang Dou replied, "Your Majesty heard wrong. I was born in troubled times, and I serve the king of troubled times. How dare I criticize bluntly? Hearing this, Wang Xuan was angry and unhappy.

After a while, Wang Dou said, "Once upon a time, your late husband Qi Huangong had five hobbies. He rectified the princes, rectified the world, and the son of heaven gave him a position and stood on his own feet as the overlord. Now, the king has four hobbies. " King Xuan said, "I am stupid, and I am only worried about losing my country. How can I have four hobbies? " Wang Dou said, "No, the ancestors liked horses, and the king also liked horses; The late king liked dogs, and so did the king. My late king liked wine, so did my late king. The first gentleman is lewd, and the king is lewd; The first king paid tribute to Corporal Xian, but the first king did not pay tribute to Corporal Xian. " King Xuan said, "There are no scholars today. How can I pay tribute to Corporal Xian? Wang Dou said: "There are no such good horses as Yi Yi and Yi Er in the world, but your majesty owns all the chariots and horses;" "There is no dog like Dong, a cunning rabbit, but the king already has a hunting dog who is good at running; There is no such beauty in the world, but there are beautiful women like clouds in the harem. Your majesty is too rude to corporal xian. How can he worry that there are no scholars in the world? " King Xuan said, "I am worried about my country and I love my people, but I might as well love a foot of crepe." King Xuan said, "What does this mean?" Wang Dou said, "Your Majesty wants people to make hats, not by getting close to the people he loves, but by craftsmen. Why? Because they can do it. Now, the king rules the country, but he must rule with people close to him. So I said,' It is better to love a foot of crepe than to care about the country and love the people.' "

King Xuan felt guilty and said, "I am guilty of my country." So ... First of all, five wise men were selected and appointed to their official positions, so Qi was well governed.

The King of Qi sent messengers to visit Zhao. Wei opened the letter from the King of Qi and asked the messenger, "What about this year? What about the people? What happened to the king? " The messenger said unhappily, "I was sent by the King of Qi to visit Wei. Now you don't ask the king first, ask Niancheng and the people first. Isn't it humble before honorable? " Wei Hou said: "No, the years are not good. How can anyone?" If there is no people, how can there be a monarch? How can there be a reason to ask at the end of the book? "

Then she asked the emissary again, "There is a Chu Shi in the State of Qi named Li Zhong. How is he? He is human and has food. He gives others food to eat; When there is no food, he also gives others food, and when there is clothes to wear, he gives others clothes to wear; When he has no clothes to wear, he also dresses others. This is to help the monarch feed the people! Why haven't you given him a job? What about Ye Yangzi? He is a man who loves the widowed, helps the orphans, helps the needy and lacks materials. This is to help the monarch keep the people alive! Why haven't you given him a job? What about Gong Bei's daughter and children? She doesn't dress herself up, she is old, she doesn't get married, and she takes care of her parents at home. She is a person who sets an example for the people and teaches everyone to be filial! Why not name the baby as a married woman and let her enter the court? These two wise men didn't give a job, and a filial daughter didn't give a seal. How can we rule Qi and be the father of all the people? Is Yuling neutron still alive? This person is a person, yes, not a gentleman; Secondly, I don't govern my family; Don't make friends with the prince either; This is taking the lead in asking the people to be irresponsible to the country. Why haven't you killed him yet? "

A man from the State of Qi visited Tian Pian, a bachelor, and said, "I heard that Mr. Wang respects justice and is unwilling to be an official, but he is willing to serve others." Tian Pian said, "Where did you know that?" Answer: "I know it from my neighbor's daughter." Tian Pian said, "What does this mean?" Answer: "the neighbor's daughter, unwilling to get married, is thirty years old, but has seven sons." Not getting married is not getting married. But compared with married women, it is even worse. Now my husband doesn't want to be an official, but his salary is thousands of hours and his apprentice is hundreds. Although being an official is not an official, it is not as good as being an official. " Upon hearing this, Tian Pian was very grateful to him.

Yan Guan offended the king of Qi, so he said to his close friend, "Who can meet the princes for me?" Close to the left and right, no one answered. Yan Guan said sadly with tears, "How sad! Why are scholars so easy to get but so difficult to use? " Tian needs to answer: "scholars are still hungry for three meals a day here, but your geese and ducks can't finish eating;" Your harem servants and concubines are all wearing silk, silk and satin, and it is impossible for literati to use them as the border of clothes. And wealth is what you despise, and death is what scholars value. You refuse to give the goods you despise to the scholars, but ask them to serve you with the death they value. This can't be said to be' easy to get and difficult to use'! "

Su Qin came to Qi from Yan State, and the King of Qi greeted him at the gate of zhanghua Palace. The king of Qi said, "Ah! You're just in time. Wei Ran sent by Qin wants me to be emperor. What do you think? " Su Qin said, "You asked this question too suddenly. However, disasters always occur in small places, so we must think carefully. If you don't agree with Qin's request, there will be a conflict with Qin. If Qin agreed, there would be a conflict with the princes. You might as well promise to be an emperor to deal with the state of Qin, but don't immediately announce that you will be an emperor to deal with the princes. Qin proclaimed himself emperor, and the governors all agreed, and then the king proclaimed himself emperor. It's no harm to establish the Emperor's number first and then the Emperor's number. If the state of Qin calls itself emperor, but the governors don't agree, the king won't call himself emperor, which is of great benefit to win the trust of the governors. "

Su Qin said to the King of Qi, "Both Qi and Qin have the title of emperor. Do you think the princes will respect Qin or Qi? " King Qi said, "To the State of Qin." Su Qin said: "Give up the name of the emperor, then is the vassal pro-Qi or pro-Qin?" King Qi said, "Qinqi hates Qin." "Qi and Qin Dou established the emperor and formed an alliance against Zhao. Which is more favorable for attacking the Song Dynasty? " The King of Qi said, "It is better to attack the Song State." Su Qin said: "Chyi Chin agreed to establish an emperor, and the princes only respected Qin and despised Qi; If qi abandons the emperor's name, the princes will kiss qi and hate Qin; It is better to attack Zhao than to attack Song. According to the above three points. Therefore, I hope that the king will publicly give up the name of the emperor to get close to the princes; Cancel the contract, abandon Qin, and don't argue with Qin. Your majesty can take this opportunity to destroy the kingdom of song. Occupy Song State, and Weiguo Yangcheng will be in danger; Occupy Huaibei. There will be danger in eastern Chu; With the possession of Jixi, the Hedong of Zhao is in danger; And, Pinglu, Wei kept it behind closed doors. Therefore, if you give up the name of the emperor, change your mind and attack the State of Song, then the State of Qi will play an important role and the reputation of the king will be honored. Both Yan State and Chu State will submit to Qi State because of the change of the situation, and the governors in the world dare not disobey it. This is a great achievement like Shang Tang and Zhou Wuwang! Giving up the emperor's name, nominally respecting Qin, will actually make the princes hate Qin. This is the so-called "humility and respect" strategy! I hope the king will think it over. "
