Those who are able to help the world in danger will enjoy the peace of the world.Those who can eliminate the worries of the world will enjoy the happiness of the world.Those who can save the world from disasters will receive the blessings of the world.Therefore, if it reaches the people, the sages will return to it.Ze and insects, Ye Shengren returns.Where sages return, their country will be strong.Where the sage returns, it is used by the heavens and the earth.” This article is the hegemony of the declining world.Observing the safety and danger of the world, accepting people's hearts, Chen Daode.Use resourcefulness also.However, the use of strategy must be based on morality, so this article says: "Those who can solve the world's dangers can stabilize the world. Those who can eliminate the worries of the people can enrich the love of the world. Those who can save the world from disasters , and then you can get the blessings of the world." In the past, the flood was a disaster, but Yu avoided it.King Zhou collected them, and King Wu scattered them.The laws of Qin were strict, but Gao Zu was lenient.All of the above are examples.However, success depends on the gains and losses of talents, and the recruitment of talents is often determined by one's own morality.Therefore, if virtues are planted and virtuous people come, the country will be strong and the people will be rich.Virtue fills the inside, and the luster is grouped.Then the sage will use the world, and the world will be peaceful.

Pursue the virtuous with virtue, and the sage with the Tao.If the virtuous go, the country will be in danger, and if the sage goes, the country will be bad.The little ones are in danger.Good ones are a sign of death.The government of the sages lowers people to the body.The government of the sage lowers people's hearts.The body drop can start, and the heart drop can guarantee the end.Lower the body with courtesy, lower the heart with joy.The so-called happy person means that people enjoy their family, their career, their city, their government orders, and their morality.In this way, the ruler and the person are making fun to control it, so that it will not lose its harmony.Therefore, a virtuous king takes pleasure in others.A king without virtue enjoys his body.Music people, long and long.Those who enjoy the body will die soon.

This section inherits the above, explaining that the safety of the country lies in the departure of talents.To seek talent, the sage is to give virtue, and the sage is to combine it with the way.The resignation of a sage is a sign of national danger, and the retreat of a sage is a sign of chaos.A wise man governs the country, and the law is followed; a sage governs the country, and he enjoys his mind.Punishment with courtesy is an expedient measure, and it can last for a long time with joy.The so-called music is not the sound of gold, stone, silk and bamboo, but in a society where the rich and the poor are equal, the government is clear, and the laws are equal.Therefore, everyone is safe in his position, everyone is happy in his family, and everyone is happy in his country. This is also the centripetal force of the people in the country.If this is the case, the country will be prosperous and the people will be safe. In order to prevent overcrowding, the rhythm of the music is made to harmonize it. This is also the spirit of poetry teaching.Therefore, the works of music are to change customs and customs, and to have fun with everyone.Such as "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes" and "Yushu Houting", they will perish soon, and the joy of solitary is better than the joy of all.

Those who explain the near and seek the distant will be futile.Those who explain the distance and seek the near will end up lost.If you lose your government, you will find many loyal ministers, and if you work hard, you will often complain about the people.Therefore, it is said: "Those who work on a vast land will be barren, those who work on a wide range of virtues will be strong, those who can have what they have are safe, and those who are greedy for others will be disabled. The government of destruction will suffer from troubles for generations. If you create excessive systems, you will lose if you are strong."

This section discusses the principles of government, which must be viewed from a high level and approached from a short distance.If we only start from a distance, it will be unrealistic, and we will not get any results if we work hard. If we work hard, the people will complain, and if the people complain, the people will leave, and chaos will start.Therefore, governing with virtue is based on the hearts of the common people and conforms to the sentiments of the people.The way of national defense lies in morality, not in danger, and the wealth of a country depends on the people, not on the ruler. Therefore, observing the needs of the people and consolidating the economy of the whole people is the strategy for long-term stability.In the past Song Dynasty King Jinggong reformed the law, and his law was not bad.It is only because of ignorance of people's sentiments, overcorrecting, rushing forward, criminal laws are unkind, and regulations are complicated. This so-called strong success will ultimately fail.

Those who sacrifice themselves to teach others will give it up, and those who correct themselves and transform others will follow.Those who are rebellious are the tricks of chaos, and those who follow are the key to governance. This section reaffirms the principle of virtue in government, saying that leaders must be righteous by themselves, the so-called "leading with righteousness, who dares to be unrighteous"?This is also the root of chaos. Dao, morality, benevolence, righteousness, and propriety, the five are one.The Taoist is what people do.Virtue is what people get.A benevolent person is loved by others.Righteousness, what is suitable for people.Etiquette is the body of a person; it cannot be without one.Therefore, long-cherished and night-sleeping is also the system of etiquette.Seeking revenge from thieves is a decision of righteousness.Compassion, benevolence comes out.Winning people is the way of virtue.To make everyone equal, without losing their place, is the transformation of Tao.

This section talks about Dao, virtue, benevolence, righteousness, and propriety, which originate from the unity of Dao.Because the society is becoming more and more complex, the spiritual and material are out of balance, and people's hearts are perverted, so they are restrained by etiquette and righteousness.As for the use of etiquette and righteousness, it is not necessary to overestimate it when it comes to thinking about it in daily life.The same is true of the way of governing the country, equalizing the individual, so that the people can have their own positions and enjoy their own ambitions, and the people's hearts will return to honesty. This is called Daoization.

Out of the emperor and under the minister, the name is fate.The implementation of bamboo and silk is called order.Doing it according to the law is called politics.If the husband's life is lost, the order will not work.If the order is not good, the government will not be established.If the government is not established, the road will not work.If the way is blocked, the evil minister will win.If the evil minister wins, the master will be injured.Thousands of miles to welcome the virtuous, the road is long.To be unworthy, the road is near.It is because Mingjun abandons the near and takes the far away, so he can do his best to respect others and do his best.

This section talks about the government orders of the country, which are called orders from the mouth of the emperor, established as orders called by the law, followed by subordinates and implemented, and popularized by the people. This is called government.If you are not upright, you will lose your fate, and if you fail your fate, the master will have no authority, and orders will not work.If orders are not followed, political affairs will be chaotic, and political chaos will lead to treachery and evil.When treachery and evil are in power, loyalty and virtuousness are far away.This is why the wise master knows that a gentleman is meticulous, that talents are hard to find, and that luck is easy to advance, so they all focus on seeking talents.If he wins people, the people will be convinced and work hard, and the government will be peaceful.

If one goodness is abolished, all goodness will decline.Reward one evil, and all evil will return.The good will be blessed, and the evil will be punished, so the country will be safe and all the good will come. Inheriting from the above, this section discusses the principles of legislative rewards and punishments.The legislative establishment of the country involves the rights and interests of the whole people, so it must not be careless.Changing decrees from day to day, the scale of the law, the loss of trust in the people, and the cause of chaos.If rewards and punishments are not fair, there is no distinction between good and evil, and the evil advances and the good retreats. This is also the cause of chaos.Therefore, in setting up legislation and systems, it is advisable to take a long-term view, observe the past to learn from the present, and observe the future trend, so as not to labor the people.If the rewards and punishments are fair, the evil will be punished and the good will be promoted, so that the country will be safe if all the good are gathered.

There is no country with doubts, no rule of people with confusion.If doubts and doubts are returned, the country can be safe. This section extends the above again. If there is no order in government, the people will be suspicious. If you rebel, you will lose a hundred.If you do one evil thing, you will end up with a hundred evils.Therefore, if good is done to the obedient people, and evil is done to the vicious people, the order will be followed without complaint.To use resentment to cure resentment is to defy the heavens, to use hatred to rule the good, and the strong cannot be rescued.Govern the people to make peace, bring peace to clean, then the people will get what they want and the world will be peaceful. This section says that if you are old enough to seek the country, you should not rush forward and rush for success.For all government orders and measures, if one fails, the others will follow;Therefore, the way to govern the country is to transform it with virtue, the government is in the Qing Dynasty, and the order is in peace, then the people will be in their positions and the world will be in peace. Those who offend the superior are respected, those who are greedy and humble are rich, although there is a holy master, they cannot be ruled.Those who commit crimes will be punished, and those who are greedy and contemptible will be punished, and all evil will be eliminated. In this section, Shen Ping rewards and punishments are the key to employing talents.Those who commit chaos occupy high positions, and those who are greedy and despicable use their affairs, then even though the Lord is holy, the country cannot be governed.Therefore, punishing rape and eliminating corruption is the foundation of the rule of law. Innocent people cannot be honored and rewarded, and righteous people cannot be threatened with punishment.Therefore, when a Ming emperor seeks talents, he must look at the reasons for his success.To innocent people, cultivate their etiquette.To those who are righteous, cultivate their way.Then the scholar can be famous and the name can be guaranteed. This section talks about the way to seek virtuous persons, whether it is to tie them down, or to move them with righteousness, it varies from person to person, and you should not stick to it. A sage, a gentleman, understands the source of prosperity and decline, understands the cause of success and failure, judges the opportunity of chaos, and knows the time to go.Although poor, he is not in the position of subjugation.Although poor, he does not eat millet from a chaotic state.Those who live in hiding and hold the Tao will move from time to time, and they will be in the position of extremely human ministers.If the virtue is in line with oneself, then one can build extraordinary achievements.Therefore, his way is high, and he is famous in later generations. This section talks about the way for a gentleman to stand in the world, to cultivate virtue and to know widely, and to adapt to the times and change.Being poor does not change one's integrity, and being poor does not make one's aspirations difficult. This is the so-called "a gentleman worries about the Dao and does not worry about poverty" (detailed in the original chapter). The use of soldiers by the Holy Lord is not a joy, and he will punish chaos with violence.Husband punishes unrighteousness with righteousness, if the river is cut off to irrigate the fire, and when unexpected events happen and the crowd is about to fall, then it will surely be overcome.Therefore, those who travel calmly and do not advance will seriously injure people.Soldiers are ominous weapons, the way of heaven is evil, and it is the way of heaven to use them as a last resort.The lady is in the way.If a fish lives in water, it lives when it gets water, and dies when it loses water. Therefore, a gentleman is always afraid and dare not lose his way. There are two key points in this section: One word is that war is dangerous, the place of life and death, the way of survival, and it should be used as a last resort.Furthermore, when discussing the art of war, the key lies in "momentum", and those who make good use of it are like turning a boulder on top of a thousand feet.In the past, when Emperor Wu defeated the Xiongnu, the two dynasties of Kongwen and Jing gathered together, and the emperor could not use the horses, which caused the sluggishness of the Western Han Dynasty.Therefore, if soldiers start with righteousness and take advantage of the momentum, they will easily achieve full success.And the holy master has always been careful not to speak lightly of war, for fear of hurting the vitality of the country, and the way of heaven is good to cherish things.Therefore, if the ruler deviates from the Tao, the country will be in danger, if the common people deviate from the Tao, they will be obedient, and if the gentleman deviates from the Tao, he will perish. Heroes carry out their duties, but the country's prestige is weak.If the heroes kill, the power of the country will be exhausted.A hero bows his head, and the country lasts forever.It is up to the king to kill, and the country can be safe.The four people use nothing, but the country has no reserves.The four peoples use their feet, and the country is happy.If the virtuous ministers are inside, then the evil ministers will be outside.If the evil ministers are inside, the virtuous ministers will die.Internal and external inappropriate, disasters handed down. This section discusses the regular scriptures of governing the country.In the past, Han Fei had a saying: "Confucianism confuses the law with literature, and quickly violates the ban with military force."Therefore, Jiang Shang was an elite scholar, and Emperor Wu moved to Zhu Guo, so this is not the case.The great power of the motherland should have its own duties.The country's economy focuses on people's livelihood.The politics of the country are based on the appointment of talents.If one of the above three is committed, the disaster will not be far away. Ministers are suspicious, and traitors gather.The minister is the emperor, and the upper and lower are faint.The king is a giant, and the up and down are out of order. This section discusses the system of the country, the superiority and inferiority of the upper and lower, and must not be disordered. It is also used outside of this ritual. There is a saying in "Book of Rites": "The husband and the rites, so they make relatives and estrangements, resolve suspicions, distinguish between similarities and differences, and tell right from wrong."Therefore, the way of the monarch and his ministers is to use courtesy and sincerity, so push the heart and eliminate doubts. Hurting the sage will bring disaster to the third generation.Those who hide the sage will suffer from it.Those who are jealous of the sage have incomplete names.The sages are the descendants of Fuliu.Therefore, the gentleman is eager to become a virtuous person, and his reputation is outstanding. This section responds to the full text, and the use of tactics and strategies lies in talents.Therefore, hurting the sages will bring disaster to future generations.If you are virtuous but unable to use it, you will suffer from it.Those who are jealous of the virtuous have a bad reputation.In the past, Uncle Bao entered Guan Zhong, and he was under him for less than a thousand years. He talked about Guan Zi's merits and admired Bao Zi's righteousness.Therefore, it is the traditional virtue of our scholars and gentlemen to promote the backward and recommend the talented, and it is also the first priority of official career.In the past, Ziyou was the governor of Wucheng. Confucius saw him and didn't inquire about other matters. He said, "How can a woman get a man's ear?" One benefit harms one hundred, and the people go to the city.One profit harms ten thousand, and the country is thought to be scattered.If you go for a profit of one hundred, the person is Mu Ze.Going to benefit ten thousand, the government will not be chaotic. This section summarizes the full text, the way to govern the country blindly lies in publicity and peace.If government orders and measures fail to popularize the interests of the whole people, the hearts of the people will be scattered; if the hearts of the people are scattered and the government orders are ineffective, the country will be weak.Moreover, there is no perfect thing in the world, so the interests and expediencies should be carefully examined. That is, the true meaning of the principles of democracy today is also based on the majority of people's opinions. This is the same principle in ancient and modern politics. Now that this article is finished, looking at the historical policy, there are few people who hold virtue; looking forward to the present, there are many people who hold skills.The west wind swayed down, and the sword energy was frequently destroyed.It is the same as the Fu, and it is attached to the post. I dare not write poems, but use my thoughts to complete the full text. Heroes segregate and fight for Rongtao, while strategists take care of their feathers. Feeling lonely and angry after losing the original intention, don't write Yu Xi as Lisao. The sea and the sky are surging and the wind is rushing, and the clouds and geese in the north are high. In the dream, the feelings of the lake and the mountains are endless, and Bitao walks in the depths of Jinao.
