Yan Zi said: "Infant heard, light death to perform the ritual is called the courage, kill the violence does not avoid the strong is called the force. Therefore, the establishment of courage and strength, in order to carry out its rituals and righteousness. Tang Wu with the army and not for the reverse, and the country and not for greed, the reason of benevolence and righteousness. Execution of violence does not avoid the strong, for the crime does not avoid the crowd, the line of courage and strength. Ancient is the brave force, the line of righteousness; now on the reason of benevolence and righteousness, the next no crime to kill the line of violence, but only to the brave force in the world, the vassal line with the country in danger, the line with the family disability. In the past, the decline of Xia, there are pushing the luxury, big play, the decline of Yin, there are Fei Zhong, evil to, foot walk thousands of miles, hand crack rhinoceros bull and tiger, let the force, overrun the world, Wei kill innocent, advocate courage, regardless of righteousness and reasoning, is Jiezhou and Zhou to the end of the Yin and Xia to the decline.

Yan Zi cu ran changed his face and said: "Jun's words are too much! The group of ministers certainly want the king's rudeness. More strength is enough to win his chief, more courage is enough to kill the king, but the ritual does not make also. Beasts to force for the government, the strong offend the weak, so the day change the master; now the king to go to the ceremony, it is the beasts also. Qunchen to force for the government, the strong offenders weak, and the day easy to master the king will be safe to stand!

Male and female group music week goblet five offerings, over the person to be put to death. Jun body service, so there is no grudges outside the rule, there is no chaos within the line. Today, a day of drinking and three days of sleep, the state of the rule of the grudges outside, around the chaotic internal.

Huai Bao dozens of townships, starving hooligans have a number of families, the people of the old and weak cold can not be short brown, hungry can not be chaff, I withdrew without walking, looking around without telling. And the king is not compassionate, day and night drinking, so that the country to music, the horse to eat the government corn, the dog to eat the ruminants, the concubines of the three insurance, all sufficient sorghum meat. Dogs and horses to protect concubines, not already thick? The people of the people, not thin? Therefore, the poor and no tell no joy have on carry on hunger and no tell, no joy have the king carry on. Infant Feng number of? The baby is a number of, in order to follow the hundred officials of the officials, the people hungry and poor about without notice, so that on the lewdness of the loss of the original and do not sympathize with, baby's crime is great." Bowed again, bowed, please body and go, and then walked out. The public from the, and in the Tu and can not catch, make fun driving after Yanzi, his home, not as. Corn in the hooligans, any ware stored in the stranger, the public drive and the Kang Nei.

Yan Zi see, the public said Yan Zi said: "I heard that the ruler of the country, love people can benefit, evil people can be sparse. Now I love people can not benefit, evil people can not be sparse, lost the way of the king." Yanzi said: "baby heard of the king is from the minister is called the smooth, the first king of the establishment of love, in order to persuade the good also, its establishment of evil, in order to prohibit violence also. In the past, the rise of the three generations, the benefit of the country love, harmful to the country of the evil, so the love of the clear and virtuous, the clear and evil and evil out of the way, is the world peace, the people and set. And its decline, the line of peace and simplicity, the body of peace and happiness in line with their own love, against their own evil, so the Ming love and evil secluded prosperity, Ming the evil and virtuous extinction of the scattered people, the danger of destroying the countryside. The king does not measure the rise of the saint king, and the next does not look at the decline of the inert king, I fear that the king's counterproductive behavior, the Department of Justice do not dare to fight to overthrow the gods of the earth and grain, endangering the temple." Gong said, "I do not know also please from the Shi Shi's strategy." Domestic salaries, received by the three also.
Duke Jing credited slander and sycophancy, and the reward and punishment were out of proportion, and Yanzi reminded him of the eighth
Duke Jing credited slander and sycophancy, and the reward was not meritorious and the punishment was not innocent. Yan Zi reminded him, "I have heard that a wise ruler looks to the saints and believes in their teachings, but does not listen to slanders and sycophants in order to punish and reward them. Today, with the left and right to say praise also, said: "than the dead barely for joy! I can be benevolent and the more branding people ear carry on! Therefore, the internal favor of the concubine, forced to take in the country, the external favor of the ministers, pretending to take in the mean, the law enforcement officials, and load people. The people's sorrow and suffering about the disease, and treacherous drive especially anonymous, hidden feelings am evil, hidden flattered on, so although there is a supreme saint and great sage, can not win if the slandering! It is the loyal ministers often have a disaster. I heard that the old man's soldiers, can not be lost with the gain; can be entered with, can not be withdrawn with. I please escape." So he whipped his horse and went out. Duke Han Zi Hugh chased after him, said: "Lone unkind, can not follow the teachings, resulting in this extreme. I will go there, and I will follow." Yanzi then whipped his horse and returned. His servant said: "to the go how fast? Today's return and how fast?" Yan Zi said, "I do not know what I am talking about, but I know what I am talking about."
Duke Jing loved concubines, as he wished, Yan Zi remonstrated IX

Yanzi up sick and see the public, the public said: "Zhai Prince envy of the drive, I am very said, please make the show?" Yan Zi said: "the driving thing, I have no job." Gong said: "I am a happy man, is to Locke's to ten thousand bells, its enough?" Said: "In the past, Wei Shi Dong Ye's drive, the public said, infant son did not say, the public said not to say, so do not watch. Today, Zhai Prince envy of the drive also, the public does not say, baby said, the public said; for please, the public allowed, it is a woman for the system also. And not happy to rule people, but happy to rule the horse, not generous salary sage but generous salary imperial husband. In the past, the first ruler Huan Gong's land is narrower than the present, repair the rule of law, wide political education, in order to dominate the vassals now the king, a vassal can not pro also. Years of bad years of hunger, the road dead look at each other. Jun does not worry about this shame, but only to figure out the music of the ears, not repair the achievements of the late king, but only decorated with driving and defense of the trick, then the public disregard for the people and forget about the country is very far. And the poem says: "carry a team of horses, the gentleman's commandments." The driving eight, solid non-system also, this is also heavy for non-system also, not ZiZhuhu! And the king is a beautiful music, the country will be many for it, hunting is inconvenient, the road line to the far can not, but with horses several times, this is not the way of the Royal Road also. The obscenity of the ears and eyes, inappropriate people's business this holy king's forbidden also. Jun Goumei music, the vassals will be or effect me, Jun no virtue and good governance to be the vassals and easy to secluded, this is not so the children of the people, the recognition of the name, to the distance, pro-neighboring countries way also. And the wise and virtuous abolition of widows and orphans do not vibrate, and listen to the favorite concubine to Loc Royal husband to store grievances, and the people for the hatred of the way also. The poem says: 'The philosophical man becomes a city, the philosophical woman dumps the city.' Now the gentleman is not free into the city of the request, but only to pour the city of the service, the country's death to the day to carry on Jun its figure!" Gong said: "good." So do not look again, was dismissed to return to Zhai Prince envy, and sparse favorite infant son.

And Yenzi, Yenzi said: "The king ordered his ministers, according to their shoulders to do their best, I dare not be reluctant! Now there is a house, this country's ministers of power, everyone to the king's order said: 'will be and the Fu for the son.' To leave the tree, the party, the way to dump the country also, the baby dare not accept the order, I hope that the king figure!"
Duke Jing wanted to abolish the first son of Yang Sheng and set up Tuan, Yanzi remonstrated Eleventh
Chun Yu people in the King's daughter was born in Ruzi Tuan, King's love. The Duke of Jing loved him. The ministers of the court wanted to abolish the Duke's son, Yangsheng, and set up Tuan, and the Duke told Yanzi about it. Yanzi said: "not. Husband to cheap match expensive, the country's harm; put the big set up less, the root of the chaos. The sun is born, born and long, the country people wear, the king of its not easy! If there are equal positions in the service, the lowly will not maul the noble; if there is etiquette in the establishment of the son, the sinful will not mess up the clan. I hope that you will teach the tea to rituals and do not fall into the evil, guided by righteousness and do not Cham in the profit long less to do their way, the Zong sins to get their Lun. If the Yangsheng dare not make Tuan eat the flavor of sorghum meat, play the sound of gold and stone and have a problem? The abolition of the long standing less, can not teach the next; honor the sins of the lowly Zong, can not benefit from the love. Long and young without equal, Zong sin no difference, is to set up a thief tree also the root of treachery. The king's plan! Ancient Mingjun, not do not know the prosperity of music, that music is sad; not do not know the establishment of love, that the loss of righteousness is worried. Therefore, the system of music to section, set up a son to the road. If you use slander and flattery to serve the king, it is not enough to blame the letter. Today, the use of slanderer's plan, listen to the words of the messy man also, the abolition of the long standing less; I am afraid of the future of the people of the king's faults in order to capitalize on its evil, abolition of the lesser and the establishment of the long in order to become its interests. I am afraid that there will be people in the future who will capitalize on the faults of the king to make him evil, and who will abolish the young and establish the eldest to make his own profit. The Duke did not listen. Called will puta, Liang Qiu according to, Yanzi and asked, said: "the widow's disease disease, make the Shi solid and Zhu Tuo tour mountains and rivers and ancestral temples, sacrifices Bik, not prepared, the number of its often more than the late king Huan Gong, Huan Gong, one is the widow again. Disease has not been, breeding is very, I want to kill the two sons to say in God, can it?" Will condemn, Liang Qiu according to say: "can." Yanzi not right. Gong said: "Yanzi how?" Yan Zi said: "Jun to Zhu as beneficial?" Gong said: "Yes." "If you think it is beneficial, then the curse is also detrimental. Jun sparse auxiliary and far flick, loyal ministers embrace the blockade, advice does not come out. I heard, the near ministers hey, far ministers mute, the mouth of the people. Today, since the chat ingestion to the east, Gouyu to the west, the people of the people carry on, the people of the blame and slander, cursing the king in God's more than enough. A country cursed, two people wish, although good wishers can not win. And I wish to speak directly to the situation, it is defamatory to our king; hidden over, it is also deceiving God God, can not be deceived; God is not God, I wish also no good. I hope that the king to look into it. Otherwise, the penalty is not guilty of Xia and Shang so also destroyed." Gong said: "good to solve the remaining confusion, plus the crown!" Order will condemn not rule the government of Qi, Liang Qiu according to not rule the guests, both belong to the Yanzi. Yanzi resigned, not order, by the phase back, put the government, change month and Jun disease reform. Gong said: "In the past, my predecessor, Duke Huan, to tube for the powerful, the Euphrates foxes and grain for the temple of the fresh, give its loyal subjects, is more loyal subjects. Zi now loyal ministers also, the widow please give Zi state money." Resignation said: "tube Zi has a beauty, baby is not as good as also; there is an evil, baby can not bear to be also, its temple to feed the fresh also." The final resignation and not to be.

Jinggong traveled to Maiqiu, and asked the sealer, "How long have you been there?" He said, "I am eighty-five years old." The Duke said, "I am very old! The son wishes me well." He said, "You are longer than Hu, and it is better for the country." The king said, "Good! The son is restored." He said, "All the heirs of the envoy will live as long as the years of the despicable ministers." He said, "Good! The son will be restored." The feudalist said, "Your majesty has not offended the people." Gong said: "There are really despicable people offended by the king can, how can there be a king offended by the people?" Yanzi said, "You have gone too far! He is not a man who is guilty, the relative to rule, the lowly is guilty, the noble to rule; the king offended by the people, who will be ruled? Dare to ask: Jie, Zhou, the king killed? The people will be executed?" The king said, "I am sure that I will." So he gave the feudal lord Maiqiu as an area.
Jing Duke wanted to make Chu Wu to the five emperors in order to understand the virtue, Yan Zi remonstrated 14th
Chu Wu micro-guide descent paragraph to see Jing Duke, sitting for three days, Jing Duke said. Chu Wu said: "Gong, the Lord of the gods, the emperor of the king also. Public reign for seven years, things have not been great, Ming God has not yet arrived, please to the five emperors, in order to brighten the king's virtue." Jing Gong bowed again. Chu witch said "please tour the countryside to see the emperor." To the Ox Mountain and dare not climb, said: "five emperors of the position is in the south of the country, please fasting and then climbed." Duke ordered all the officials to provide fasting utensils in the place of Chu Wu, the descendants of the money to see things. Yenzi heard and saw the public said: "the public order Chu Wu fast Ox Hill?" The public said: "Yes. To the five emperors in order to clarify the virtue of the widow, God will descend on the widow, it has to help?" Yan Zi said: "The king's words are too much ancient king, virtue thick enough to secure the world, line wide enough to accommodate the masses, the vassals to wear, as a ruler, the people to return to the, as a parent. Therefore, heaven and earth and the four times and not lost, the stars, sun and moon smooth and not chaotic, virtue thick line wide, with the sky like time, after the emperor of the king, the Lord of the gods. Ancient people do not slow line and complicated sacrifices, do not light body and rely on witch. Today's political chaos and line secluded, and seek the five emperors of virtue? Abandonment of wisdom and use of witch, but also seek the emperor in the body? If the people are not careful with the virtue, the blessing is not careful to descend, the emperor of the king, is not also difficult! It is a pity! The high position of the king, the low argument." Gong said: "The descendants of the paragraph to Chu witch commanded the widow said: 'Try to see and watch.' I see and say, believe in the way, do their words. Now you ridiculed, please expel Chu witch and detain the descendants." Yanzi said, "Chu Wu must not be expelled." Gong said: "Why?" Said: "Chu witch out, the lords will be or receive it. Public trust, to too much inside, do not know; out to easy the vassals in the outside, not benevolent. Please east Chu Wu and detain the descendants of money." Gong said: "No." Therefore, I said: send Chu Wu to the east, and detain the descendants of the money in the country.
Duke Jing wanted to pray for rain at the shrine of Ling Shan and He Bo, but Yan Zi reminded him of this.
The drought in Qi lasted for more than a year, so Duke Jing summoned his ministers and asked them, "The sky has not rained for a long time, and the people are starving. I made a man to divine, and he said, "I'm in the high mountains and wide waters. Widow want to lessen the amount to ancestral spirit of the mountain, can it?" The ministers did not answer. Yanzi said, "No, it is not possible! It is useless to worship this mountain. If the mountain is made of stone, grass and trees, if it does not rain for a long time, the hair will be scorched and the body will be hot, and they do not want rain? Ancestral shrine is not beneficial." Gong said: "Otherwise, I want to ancestral He Bo, can it?" Yanzi said, "No, I cannot! He Bo to water for the country, to fish and turtle for the people, days long time not rain, spring will be under the hundreds of rivers exhausted, the country will die, the people will be destroyed, they only do not want rain? Ancestral temple of what good!" Duke Jing said: "What can we do now?" Yanzi said: "Jun Cheng avoided the palace exposure, and the spirit of the mountain He Bo **** worry, it is fortunate to rain!" So jinggong out of the wild living exposed, three days, the sky fruit rain, people all get seed time. Duke Jing said "good! Yanzi's words, can be useless! Its dimension is virtuous."
Jing Gong greedy long have the country's music, Yan Zi remonstrate 16th
Jing Gong will be viewed on Zizi, and Yan Zi idle standing. The Duke sighed tersely and said: "Whoo-hoo! Wouldn't it be a joy to make the country preserved for a long time and passed on to the descendants?" Yanzi said to him, "I have heard that a bright king does not stand in vain, and that the people do not come in vain. Now the king to political chaos, to line abandoned the people for a long time, and the voice wants to protect it, is not also difficult! Infant heard, can long protect the country, can end up good people also vassals and established, can end up good people for the long; Lishi and learn, can end up good people for the teacher. Huan Gong, the former founder of the party, the time of the appointment of the virtuous and Zande, the death of the country rely on the survival of the country in danger, the country to be safe, is to the people happy with its government, and the world high its virtue, line far expedition storm, the laborer is not sick, drive the sea to make the son of heaven, and the vassals do not complain. At that time, the king of Sheng's behavior could not be advanced. And its death and decline, slack in virtue and in the music, the body drowning in the women's service and the conspiracy due to the erection of Diao, is to the people bitter its government, and the world is not its behavior, so the body died in the Hu Palace and not lifted, the bugs out of the collection when it is time, Jie Zhou's death can not be evil. Poetry" said: "There is no beginning, there is no end". Can not end the good, not to fulfill its king. Today, the king is like the enemy of the people, see the good if avoiding heat, chaotic government and endanger the virtuous, will be against the crowd, wanton desire in the people, and the punishment of abuse in the next, fear of the body. Infant's old age, can not stay in the king to make carry on, line can not leather, then hold section to the world ear."

Yanzi only laugh at the side, the public brush snot and Gu Yanzi said: "I today swim, sad, holes and according to all from the widow and snivel, son of the only laugh, why?" Yan Zi said: "make the wise often guard, then too male, Huan Gong will often guard it carry on; make the brave often guard, then Zhuang Gong, Ling Gong will often guard it carry on. Several monarchs will always keep it, then my king can get this position to stand? To its iterative place, iterative go, to the king also, and only for the sniveling, is not benevolent also. Unkind king see one, flattering ministers see two, the reason why this minister only snickers also."
Jing Duke traveled to Gongfu, one day, there are three words, Yan Zi remonstrated 18th
Jing Duke traveled to the north of Gongfu, looking at the state of Qi, said: "Whoo-hoo! Make ancient and no death, how?" Yanzi said, "In the past, God took the death of man as a good thing, and the benevolent rested in peace, while the unkind were in peace. If the ancient and no death, Ding Gong, Taigong will have the state of Qi, Huan, Xiang, Wen, Wu will be phase, the king will wear a hat and clothes and brown, the Choshi hoe to squat in the field of drained land, who have time to suffer from death!" Public wrathful color, do not say. No geometry and Liang Qiu according to the Royal six horses and came, the public said: "Who is also?" Yanzi said: "According to also." Gong said: "How?" Said: "Great heat and gallop, even horse death, thin horse injury, non-according to which who dares to do it!" Gong said: "According to me and my husband!" Yanzi said: "This is called the same. The so-called and the person, the king is sweet, then the minister is sour, the king is light, then the minister is salty. Now according to also sweet king also sweet, the so-called the same, and can be peace!" The public was furious and did not say anything. No geometry, sunset, the public look west to see the comet, called Bo Chang Qian, so that the sacrifice to go. Yanzi said, "No! This heavenly teachings. The sun and moon gas, wind and rain from time to time, the comet of the out, the sky for the people of the chaos of the see of the so edict of the demon auspicious, in order to warn the disrespect. Today, if you set up the text and receive advice, visit the sage, although not to comet, the star will die. Today, the king is addicted to wine and music, political not decorated and wide in the small man, near the slander good excellent, evil text and sparse saint and wise man, what time in the comet! Will see again." Public wrathful color, do not say. And Yanzi died, the public out, back and weeping said: "Whoops! In the past, I traveled from Fu Zi to Gong Fu, Fu Zi one day and three times to blame me, now who blame the widow!"
Duke Jing traveled to the cold, not to worry about the death?
Duke Jing traveled to a cold place and saw the death of his son. He did not ask any questions. Yanzi reminded him, "In the past, my predecessor, Duke Huan, went on a tour, saw those who were hungry and their food, saw those who were sick and their money, made the order not to work hard, and did not cost the people to collect the money. My predecessor will travel, the people all said: 'Jun when fortunate to travel to my hometown! Now you are traveling in the cold, according to the forty miles of the hooligans, exhausting the wealth is not enough to serve the convergence, the best efforts can not be week service, the people of the hooligans hungry, cold, cold, frozen and discouraged, dead? The people are starving, cold, frozen and discouraged, dying and looking at each other, and you don't ask, you are out of your way. The next is not to kiss the top; pride and luxury, the top is not to kiss the bottom. The reason for the decline of the three generations is that the upper and lower levels are separated, and the ruler and ministers are not close to each other. Today, the king to do, baby fear of the danger of the public family, thought the blessing of the different surnames also." Gong said: "Yes! For the top and forget the bottom, thick by convergence and forget the people, my sin is great." So the convergence of the dead? The hair of corn in the people, according to the forty miles of the rogue does not serve the government of its year, the public in March does not go on a trip.
Duke Jing was dressed in fox-white fur and did not know that it was cold, and Yenzi remonstrated with him. 20

Yan Zi into see, standing between, the public said: "strange rain and snow for three days and the sky is not cold." Yanzi said: "the day is not cold?" Gong laughed.
