Huishi is a multi-party scholar, whose book is five cars, whose road is wrong, and whose words are not right. According to the meaning of Li Wu, it is said: "to be big without outside is called big one; to be small without inside is called small one. No thick, not integrable also, its great distance. Heaven and earth are inferior, mountains and plains. The Japanese side looks at the Chinese side, and the material side lives and dies. This is called "small sameness and sameness" and "big sameness and sameness" when all things are finished with sameness and sameness. The south is infinite but poor. Today is more suitable than ever. The chain can be solved. I know the center of heaven, the north of Yan and the south of Yue. Love all things, and heaven and earth are one. "

translation

Huishi has a wide range of knowledge. His articles are as many as five carriages. His Taoism is disorderly and his words are improper. He analyzed one of the things and said: "those who are big enough to have no boundary are called" big one "; those who are small enough to have no core are called" small one. ". There is no thickness, it can't accumulate, but it can expand to thousands of miles. The sky is as low as the earth, and the mountains are as flat as the rivers. When the sun is just in the middle, it will slant, and everything will turn to death as soon as it is born. The difference between Great Harmony and small sameness is called "small sameness and difference"; the difference between the same and small sameness is called "Great Harmony and difference". There is no end to the South and there is no end to the south. Today I went to Yue, but yesterday I came. The chain can be untied. The center of the world as I know it is in the north of Yan and the south of Yue. Love all things, and heaven and earth are one. "

interpretation

"Xuefu wuche" first came from "Zhuangzi · Tianxia", the original is "Huishi many, its book wuche, its road is wrong, its words are not right". These words are criticizing Huishi. In translation, Huishi knows a lot of tricks. Although his works are good enough to mediate the rise and fall of the five countries, many of his reasons are wrong and disorderly, and his words are also improper. The word "book" in "Qi Shu Wu Che" is a verb, which means writing. "His words are not right when his way is wrong" refers to the works written by Huishi, not the books he has read, because it is impossible that all the books read by Huishi are "his words are not right when his way is wrong".

Huishi is a famous statesman, debater and philosopher in the Warring States period. He is the founder and main representative of the famous thoughts. Huishi was the main organizer and supporter of hezong's anti Qin campaign. He advocated that Wei, Qi and Chu should unite to fight against Qin,

In ancient times, cars were compared to countries.
