Idiom story

What's the matter with "Wei Zhuang Jiang sent his concubine back"? Wei Zhuang Jiang refers to the wife of the king of Wei. Jiang has no son, but is responsible for raising and educating the child named "Wan" born to Dai GUI, the concubine of Zhuang Gong. After Zhuang Gong died, he ascended the throne and became Wei Huan Gong. Zhou Xu, born to Wei zhuanggong's concubine, killed him. Dai GUI was born in the state of Chen. His son, Duke Huan of Wei, was killed, so he left the state of Wei and returned to the state of Chen. This is called "Da GUI". To return to the motherland is to go and never return. According to etiquette, as a wife, Jiang's "sending concubines back" is a matter of "Yue etiquette". However, because Duke Huan, whom Jiang raised and educated, was born to Dai GUI, they are friendly. Now, Duke Zhuang is no longer alive, Duke Huan is killed again, and the thieves who killed the king and usurped the country have not yet been denounced. Therefore, Jiang's "sending concubines back" seems like "Yue etiquette", but in fact it is in line with benevolence and justice. This poem is written for the purpose of "sending back my concubine", which contains the meaning of sadness for Huan Gong being killed, and the meaning of affirming Dai GUI on behalf of Zhuang Gong. It is not only reasonable but also reasonable. "Yanyan" is a swallow, which was called "Yi" and "Xuanniao" by the ancients. General theory of the book of songs quoted the explanation of knowing the name as saying: "according to the bird's original name 'Yanyan', it is not named 'Yan',..." If you only say "Yan", it's Wu. " Some people say that the single word "Yan" refers to the swallow, and the disyllabic word "Yan Yan" refers to the flying of both swallows. Swallows in the North fly south in winter and return to the north in spring. They are migratory birds. Swallows can go back in spring, but I don't know if Dai GUI will have a chance to come back? The habit of swallows is often to fly in pairs. At the beginning, Jiang and Dai GUI were like swallows flying in pairs. But now Dai GUI is going to return to the state of Chen, and Jiang will stay in the state of Wei alone. In the future, he will be lonely and miserable. "The swallow is good at flying, but its feathers are poor." it means that when the swallow flies away and looks up, there is no head but uneven tail. "Antagonistic" means that the more the swallow flies, the more it flies up and down. "Down and up" means that the swallow can no longer be seen, but it seems that the sound of the swallow flying up and down can still be heard. Dai GUI is about to leave the state of Wei. Maybe it will be hard for her to come back. So Jiang came to the countryside to see her off. Seeing Dai GUI go farther and farther away, he gradually disappeared out of sight. The infinite sadness and pain made Jiang cry to himself. He stood for a long time and didn't want to go back. He even wanted to send him to the border, but he couldn't do it. Although he couldn't see Dai GUI for a long time, he couldn't help worrying about the future. Mrs. Jiang came to see me off, of course, out of sisterhood, but not just because of sisterhood. "Zhong Shi" is Dai GUI's word. What does "Ren" mean? They have great virtue and deserve to be close to and trust each other. Because of great virtue, we can take on everything, so we can take on great responsibility, so we can trust. Dai GUI's great virtue is embodied in his "heart blocking the abyss". Long time together, make people clearly realize that her heart is sincere and deep, sincerity can be trusted, deep can undertake great responsibility. How can we see its sincerity? It can be seen from "the end of the warm and Hui, Shu Shen its body". To be able to always treat people and things with a kind and respectful face, to be kind-hearted and to act cautiously shows its sincerity. How can we see its profundity? It can be seen from "the thought of the first king, the thought of the few". "Thinking before the king" means that what Dai GUI thinks in his heart is Zhuang Gong, not just about his personal gains and losses, and not because of his personal gains and losses to do anything against etiquette. On the contrary, he can persuade and encourage Jiang's family with profound righteousness, which shows his profundity. Wife and concubine, of course, have their own status, which determines their different responsibilities. Each of them has his own position and each of them has his own responsibility, which can ensure the stability and order of order. This is the spirit of "courtesy". Wife and concubine, although they have different status and responsibilities, they are respectable when they have virtue. They are both self-cultivation-oriented and can not discriminate against each other. This can ensure harmonious coexistence. This is the spirit of "happiness". if the last poem "green clothes" focuses on the spirit of "ceremony", then this poem focuses on the spirit of "music". Between rites and music, the harmony of "music" can only be achieved from the order of "Rites". If we do not start from the order of "Rites", but only talk about the harmony of "music", it will not work. Confucius said: "the use of ceremony, harmony is precious. The way of the former king, Si is beautiful, small and big from it. It's not feasible to know what's wrong, and to be harmonious without courtesy. " A person usually needs to cultivate himself, when in danger, he needs to be sincere and thoughtful, and he also needs people with the same ideals to help him.
