Chapter 22 One storm ten cold

During the Warring States Period, a hundred schools of thought contended and lobbying prevailed.General lobbyists not only have profound knowledge, rich knowledge, especially the use of profound and vivid metaphors to satirize those in power is the most prominent.Mencius was also a famous Debaters, there is such a record in the first chapter of "Gaozi" of "Mencius": Mencius was very dissatisfied with Qi Wang's stupidity, lack of persistence in doing things, and credulous slanderous slander, so he said to him bluntly: It's too unwise, although there are creatures with strong vitality in the world, but you put it in the sun for a day, but put it in a cold place.
