When it comes, it will be settled

original text

Ji will cut Zhuan for a moment. Ran you and Ji Lu were seen in Confucius and said, "Ji will have something to do with Zhuanyu." Confucius said, "please! Is wunaier a fault? Fu Zhuanyu, the former king thought that he was the Lord of East Mongolia, and he was in the city-state. How to do it? " Ran you said, "if the master wants it, neither of my two ministers wants it." Confucius said, "please! Zhou Ren once said, "Chen Li is on the list, and those who can't stop." If we do not hold on to danger, if we do not hold on to it, then how can we use it? And I have said that the tiger's cudgel comes from the cudgel, and the tortoise and jade are destroyed in the cudgel. Whose fault is it? " Ran you said: "today's husband Zhuan moment, solid and close to the cost. If we don't take it now, we will worry for our descendants. " Confucius said, "please! When a gentleman is ill, he says that he will do what he wants. Qiu also heard that there are state-owned people who are not suffering from poverty but from inequality. There is no poverty, no pauperity and no inclination. If the husband is like this, so far away people don't agree with him, then he has been practicing Wende since then. When it comes, it will be settled. Today, with the request, Xiangfu, far away people can't come because they don't like it, and the state can't defend because it's falling apart. He plans to fight in the state. I'm afraid the worry of Ji sun is not in Zhuan Yu, but in Xiaoqiang. " Selected from the Analects of Confucius Chapter 16 Ji's Chapter Ji's general cutting Zhuanyu

translation

Ji is going to attack Zhuanyu. Ran you and Zi Lu went to see Confucius and said, "the Ji clan is going to attack Zhuan for a moment." Confucius said, "isn't it your fault, ranqiu? Zhuan Yu was once appointed by the emperor of Zhou to preside over the sacrifice of eastern Mongolia, and he was already within the territory of the state of Lu. He was a subordinate of the state. Why attack him? " Ran you said, "doctor Ji sun wants to attack, but neither of us wants to." Confucius said, "ran Qiu, Zhou Ren once said," do your best to take on your duties. If you can't do it well, you will resign. " If you don't help when you are in danger, or if you don't help when you fall, what are you going to do with those who help you? And what you said is wrong. Tiger and rhinoceros run out of the cage, and tortoise shells and jades are destroyed in the box. Whose fault is this? " Ran you said: "now Zhuanyu's wall is strong and close to Feiyi. If we do not seize it now, it will certainly become a worry for our children and grandchildren in the future. " Confucius said, "ran Qiu, a gentleman hates the way that he refuses to say that he wants to do it, but he must find out the reason for it. I have heard that for princes and doctors, they are not afraid of poverty, but of wealth inequality; they are not afraid of small population, but of instability. With all wealth, there will be no poverty; with harmony, there will be no shortage of people; with stability, there will be no danger of collapse. Because of this, if people from afar do not return, they will use benevolence, righteousness, propriety and music to attract them; if they have come, they will live in peace. Now, Zhongyou and ran ask you to help Ji. People from afar don't submit to them, but they can't attract them. People in China are separated, so you can't protect them. Instead, you plan to use force in China. I'm only afraid that Ji sun's worries are not in Zhuan Yu, but in his own inner world! "
