Translation and annotation

Original translation

Jing Chun said, "aren't Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi really ambitious men? When they get angry, the princes are afraid. When they are quiet, the world will be peaceful. " Mencius said, "how can this be regarded as a man with ambition and achievements? Didn't you learn to be polite? When a man gives a crown gift, his father instructs him; when a woman marries, her mother instructs her and sends her to the door, telling her: "when you come to your husband's house, you must be respectful and careful, and don't go against your husband's wishes!" It's women's way to take obedience as a criterion. A man should live in the broadest house in the world - Ren, stand in the most correct position in the world - Li, and walk the most correct path in the world - Yi. When you can realize your ambition, follow the right path with the people; when you can't realize your ambition, walk your own way alone. He is a man who can't be confused by wealth, shaken by poverty, and subdued by power. "

Appreciative Remarks

Jing Chun thinks that Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi can influence the princes and start the war between countries. "When they are angry, the princes will be afraid, and when they live in peace, the world will die out." they are great men. Mencius believed that Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi had no principle of benevolence, justice and morality, but they were just villains and women, pursuing the "concubine's way". How could they be regarded as big men? Mencius only explained the mother's instructions when a woman married by saying "propriety", and thus came to the conclusion that "if obedience is the right thing, the way of concubines is the same." It is worth noting that the ancients believed that the way of a wife is like that of a minister. Of course, ministers should also be obedient to the monarch, but the principle of obedience is to take justice as the standard. If the monarch is unjust, ministers should admonish him. The wife is the same to her husband. Of course, the wife should be obedient to her husband. However, if the husband has a fault, the wife should persuade him to correct it. It should be "harmony but not Sameness". Mencius believed that this "concubine's way" can not be generally understood as women's way, but is actually "the way of the little wife", and only the Confucian benevolence and courtesy are "the way of the big man". The sarcasm of Mencius is profound and sharp, and he hates Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi. However, Mencius' sarcasm is true
